Doerfer Quits FEC;
GO. P. Halls Action
BY ROBERT E. CLARK
Star Stan Writer

Republicans were hopeful to-
day that President Eisenhower's
prompt action in securing the
resignation Of John c. Doerfer
had repaired any political
damage done by the chairman
of the Federal Communications
Commission in his disclosures
to House investigators.
The White House announced
the resignation late yesterday,
just six days after Mr.. Doerfer
had acknowledged spending six
nights last month aboard the
Florida biased yacht of George
B. Storer, who owns a chain of
radio and television stations.
President Praises Service
Frederick w. Ford, a career
Government lawyer who has
been a member of the FEC, was
named by Mr.. Eisenhower to
succeed Mr.. Doerfer as chair
man, effective next Tuesday.
In his letter of resignation
to the President, Mr.. Doerfer
stuck by his contention that
there had been nothing wrong
In his acceptance of the hos
pitality Of Mr.. Storer, whose
radio and TV stations are sub
ject to FEC regulation.
Mr.. Eisenhower's brief reply
praised the Wisconsin Repub-
leans service, but the President
said he thought DR.. Doerfer's
decision to resign was "a wise
one"
That appeared to be the con-
sensus Of Republicans as we'll
as Democrats. Republicans had
feared the Doerfer incident
would create election-year en-
barassment for the G. o. P. If
he were permitted to stay on
the job.

Radio Expected
To Send Valuable
Solar information

CAPE CANAVERAL, Fla.
Mar. II (AP).-The broadest
study ever undertaken in deep
space was successfully started
today with the launching Of q
beachball sized package Of
instruments into orbit around
the sun to report on conditions
between earth and Venus.
The 90-pound, 26-inch pay
load was lifted from this missile
test center by a three-stage
Thor-Able rocket at 8 am.
Three hours later in Wash
ington scientists Of the Ma.
tional Aeronautics and Space
Administration announced the
10000 pounds of thrust used
to launch the probe had pushed
1t outside the earth's gravita-
tional field and into an orbit
that will take it TAT million
miles from the sun at its nearest
approach. Planning had been
aimed at an approach within
81 million miles.
Will Radio Data
The probe, named Pioneer
v, is intended to radio back
data on such phenomena as
radiation, magnetism and nil
crometeorites, from distances I'D
to so million miles and-scien-
lists hope-for decades.
The information on condi-
tons is needed for the day
when man may fly to the far
reaches. The communication
test is a check on whether earth
can keep in touch with such
q man or with the unnamed
satellites that will blaze a trail
for him.
NASA officials said just after
II am. that the payload had
been freed from the rocket at
a velocity of 24,869 miles an
hour. That was SIS miles an
hour more than the speed re-

The Washington scientists
said the route of Pioneer v
would take it 10 million miles
closer to the sun than the or.
bit of the earth.
81 Days to Circle Sun
They said it would make its
closest approach to the sun in
its first swing around the sun
about five months from now
The scientists said that
Pioneer v would take 311 days
to make a complete circle
around the sun.
That means the probe is in
a slightly broader orbit than
had been planned. The original
plan envisioned an orbit re.
quiring 295 days.
Four hours after the launch
ing, NASA reported the probe
was AZ, 460 miles from the earth

Moderate Bill
Seen as Result
Of Rights Test
South Triumphs
On Series of 3
Roll Coll Votes
By ]. A. OLEARY
Star stan Writer

Senate Democratic Leader
Johnson Of Texas said today
the first important votes on
civil rights yesterday show Con-
gresS is trying to correct exist
ing wrongs without creating
new ones.
He was referring to series of
roll calls on which the Senate:
l. Refused, 42-53, to curb de-
bate.
2. Rejected by tabling, $3.50,
a liberal backed amendment
that would have given the At
torney General new power to
seek Federal court injunctions
to force indignation in schools,
eating places or any other walk
Of life.
8. Adopted, $50, a Southern
proposal reducing the penalties
in the administration bill for
obstructing a court order on
school Indignation. The reduc-
ton was from $4,000 fine or
two years. to 1000 or one year.
Moderate Bill Likely
These first roll calls strength
ered the belief that Congress
will pass a moderate civil
rights bill within two weeks.
But Senator Johnson cautioned
reporters today against assum-
ing the Senate will accept the
bill the House is expected to
pass next week.
The Senate leader said he
cannot tell yet whether it will
be the House bill or an amend
ed Senate bill.
House Speaker Rayburn said
he would not venture an opin-
ion on what the Senate will do.
The Speaker told a news con-
ference the House will move
as fast as we can" to advance
its bill toward passage.
There was some prospect that
general debate in the House
may end tonight, with consid-
Grafton Of amendments begin
ming Monday. But almost IL
hours remained for general de-
bate and the possibility existed
that the House might have to
go into an unusual Saturday
session to give both sides their
full speaking time.
Notes Majority Views
Senator johnson said yester-
days voting has consigned to
the ash can the labels of the
propagandists who have been
talking in terms of "beeflng up
or watering down" the bills.
The majority leader also en-
phasized that on two of the
votes a majority of the Demo-
Gratis and a majority Of the
Republicans we're on the same
side, thereby creating a ma
jority of the Senate. He added
that he does not think anyone
wants minority rule. and de-
clared that those who talked
all day about majority rule"
ought to accept the decision.

peal TO the liberals in both

Postal Fee Rise
Called Urgent
ByEisen|1ower
81 Million Lost
Every Work Day,
Congress Told
BY GARRETT ID. HORNER
star Stan Writer

ny OAhNE Il ~. hOtNEh
star stan Writer
President Eisenhower, COM
planning that the Post Office
Department was losing 50 mil
lion every working day, told
Congress today it is 'impera-
tive" to raise postage rates.
The President sent a special
message urging prompt action"
to restore "budgetary good
sense" to post office opera
lions.
His proposals call for raising
postage rates by / cent on first
class mail, an average of 40
per cent on second-class mail,
mostly magazines and news
papers, and an average of Is
per cent on third-claSs mail,
mostly advertising matter.
Asks Scent Letter
The proposed 1-cent increase
in first-clasS mail would raise
the postage required for regu-
lar letters from 4 to cents:
for air mail letters from 7 to 8
cents, and for postcards from
3 to 4 cents.
These increases were esti-
mated to yield $3.50 million in
new postal revenues in the
next fiscal year.
Mr.. Eisenhower told Congress
that postal deficits in the Is
years from 1916 to 1859 ag-
gregated about as much as
the entire cost of running the
Federal Government in 1898.
THE cumulative $6.8 billion
postal deficit for these Is
years." he added. represents
nearly one half Of the total in
crease in the Federal debt dur
ing this same 13-year period.
Interest charges alone on the
debt represented by this cum
ulative deficit are costing our
taxpayers some 5000 million
each year."
Reminded on Adjustments
He reminded Congress that
it decreed in 1858 that postal
rates should be adjusted from
time to time as may be required
to produce revenue approx
mately equal to Post ONCE De-
partment cost, less the amount
attributable to the perform
ance of public services.
Recalling that post office
losses averaged only 500 million
a year from 1900 to 1910, Mr..
Eisenhower said astronomical
losses in recent years have been
due to increases in cost of
everything the Post Office De-
partment uses or buys land to
the failure of the Congress to
enact postal rate increases to
pay for the added costs"
Despite his urgent plea, Con-
gress is not believed likely to
raise postage rates in this elec-
ton year.

When the House approached
the civil rights debate, no cots
were trundled in. The leader
ship was able to predict quite
confidently that the whole
matter would be resolved by
the middle of next week. Fiji
teen hours of debate, it was
agreed, would be quite enough.
The Senate, after 200 hours
Of debate, is still at it, and
nobody would dare to say when
it would be ready for a final
vote. The Senate does not like
people predicting what it will do.
The difference between the
two Houses is quite simple. 1t
is the difference between 437
members and a hundred, be-
tween a five-minute rule and
unlimited debate, between a
musical revue which allows for
short turns and a great deal
Of chorus work and an opera
with its arias, duets and long
death scenes.
The personality of the House
is that of a small boy. 1t
squirms, it wiggles, it talks all
the time, it has to be called
to order frequently by its elders.
1t is always sneaking to the
back of the room for a smoke.
1t often tells itself it should
pay attention and it practically
never listens, except to its ave-
some presiding officer, Speaker
Rayburn.
Senate a "Dowager"
The Senate, on the other
hand, is a dowager, command
ing, capricious, ritualistic. 1t
takes hours, even days, to say
what the House says in a min
ute or two. 1t repeats itself. It
glares at anyone who suggests
it should stop talking. 1t hates
to be interrupted; it refuses to
be Silenced. It loves to talk
about the past, when things
were done properly. 1t cherishes
precedent, hates change, hates
haste, regards the House as a
rather amusing younger bro
ther.
