gent views Of public policy
the cause cited by the Presi-
dent-were not sufficient to
remove the head Of an inde-
pendent agency.
A more likely expedient for
Mr.. Lands Is a new reorgani-
zation plan for the FPC. Con-
gress is currently considering a
general act giving President
Kennedy the same power Pres
identS Truman and Eisenhower
had to reorganize agencies over
% two-year period. Congress
would have veto power only.
Mr.. Lands is considering a
recommendation which would
give the President power to
change the tenure Of office of
the FPC chairman, but would
stop short of removing him
from the commission altogether.
The political balance Of the
FPC. like that Of all regulatory
agencies. is delicately poised. At
the moment 1t leans toward the
Republicans through Chairman
Kuykendall and two other COM
misSioners, Frederick Stueck
and Arthur Kline. There is one
vacancy, and there is an Eli
senhower recess appointee -
Paul Sweeney, an ''independ-
nt"-upon whom the Senate
has not yet acted.

quickly to redress the balance.
Mr.. Swidler viii fill one va
cancy. At the same time the
President announced he will ap-
point Howard Morgan Of PORT

taken to mean he win withdraw
Mr.. Sweeney's recess appoint
ment. "
Kline Due to Leave
Further. the five@year term
Of Commissioner Kline expires
on June % this year. Mr.. Ken
nedy is thought certain to ap-
point a Democratic replace
ment. giving the Democrats q
majority in the FPC with or
without Mr.. Kuykendall's res
ignation.
Meanwhile, neither the nomi-
nation Of Mr.. Swidler nor that
Of Mr.. Morgan has yet been
sent to the Senate. The White
House says this is not unusual,
since each nominee must first
undergo routine security in
vestigation and wait his turn in
line. Neither man has arrived
yet in Washington,
But Senate opposition to Mr..
Swidler's appointment has not
had to await the arrival of his
nomination. His reputation as
a public power man" against

has preceded him.

nedy's early" announcement
Of Mr.. Kuykendall's successor
was q rnaneuver to bring about
his resignation. Now that this
appears to have failed. Mr..
Lands office is working on
other tactics.
One such move could be a
court test of the Presidents
power to remove Mr.. Kuyken-
dali outright.
That is not thought likely. In

to remove the chairman Of the

According to them, he believes his resignation under
pressure from the Kennedy administration would violate the

principle Of independence es-
,tablished for regulatory agen-
soies.
The possibility Of q Kuyken-
Saall-White House feud on the
issue was, raised when PreSi-
dent Kennedy announced sew
feral days after his Inauguration
that he would nominate Joseph
Charles swidler, for many
years counsel for the Tennessee
Valley Authority, as q new
chairman of the FPC.
President Eisenhower ap-
pointed Mr.. Kuykendall chair
man in April. 1858, and reap
pointed him for q new five
year term In June. 1857. That
term will not expire until June
90, 1862. There appears to be
no way Mr.. Kennedy can re-
move him before that date un-
der present law.
Legal Ground Firm
d Mr.. Kuykendall appears to
be on firm legal ground in
his decision to stand firm.
Under the reorganization plan
for the FPC put through by the
Truman administration In 1850.
the President took over the
power of the five commission
ers to appoint their chairman.
Nothing was said about his re-
Hnoval.
The act establishing the
commission in 1920 said the

should serve his full term OF
office. 5 r
MIR. Kuykendall is said to
believe that provision is still
in force. Legal opinion at the
FPC is that If President Ken
nedy wants to remove Mr.. Kuy-
kendall before June, 1862. he
must get that law changed.
James M. Lands, special
assistant to the President, is
working on that. He has been
handed the task of revamping
regulatory agenCfes, and he is
Q severe critic Of Mr.. Kuyken-
dali.
Holds FPC DereIict
Mr.. Lands believes the FPC
has been derelEct In its duty to
regulate natural gas rates. In
1854 the Supreme Court ruled
specifically that the Natural
Gas Act of 1898 empowered the
FPC to set such rates for the
producers. In the last 10 years.
Mr.. Lands contends. the cost
to the consumer has more than
doubled, largely through "tem-
porary" rate increases allowed
by the commission.

Durham, N. c. (ANP) - Joe
Allen died in a fire when he went
back inside his flaming house to
rescue a daughter who was already
safe.
The fire at the Allen home had
spread throughout the small house
by the time firemen arrived.
, Firemen found Aliens body at
the front door burned beyond rec
ognition.
Authorities theorized that he
crawled to the front door before
he was overcome by smoke and
collapsed.
Neighbors reported that the man
escaped from the burning house
earlier but went back inside to
rescue his daughter who he thought
was stiH inside.
The girl, II year old Edna Earl

neighbors when tho fire broke out.
Two other daughters, Ernestine,
Is, and Amerylis, Q, were at the
house at the time of the fire but
escaped injury.
