Diving Mark Set
By NucIeor Sub

PORTSMOUTH, N. H., May
4 (AP).-The USS Thresher

tack submarines, has set a new
diving record for United States
subs, the Navy said today.
The news was contained in q
statement from Vice Admiral
Hyman G. Rickover, assistant
chief Of the Bureau of Ships for
nuclear propulsion.
Admiral Rickover, who was
aboard the Thresher during her
sea trials earlier this week, said
during the course of the trials,
the Thresher steamed deeper
than any other United States
submarine"
Officials at the Portsmouth
Naval Base declined to COM
ment further, saying only that
the Thresher can dive deeper
than 400 feet. There was no in
dication how much deeper the
craft went.
The sub. built at the Ports
mouth Naval Shipyard, is the
Navy's goth atomic powered

number of measures, ranging
from a complete rupture of

But if the OAS charter were

that Cuba constituted a threat

Westinghouse
Aides Testify,
Voice Regret
BY the Associated Press

Two Westinghouse Electric
Corp. officials fined for price
fixing testified today they now
regret the errors of their ways
but had acted from high mo-
tives and had not tried to
gouge anyone.
Landon Fuller, manager of
the switchgear division in
Westinghouse East Pittsburgh
works, and J. T. Thompson.
sales manager Of the assembled
switchgear and devices depart
ment, said they started going
to price-fixing meetings with
competitors in the early 1930s.
They were called before the
Senate Antitrust Subcommittee
which is inquiring into price
fixing and bid rigging conspir-
acies in the electrical equip
ment industry. The Senators
turned to Westinghouse after
days of questioning General
Electric Co. executives.
Mr.. Fuller and Mr.. Thomp-
son both testified they had kept
their activities secret from top
executives of Westinghouse.
Knew Plot Was Illegal
Mr.. Thompson said that he
knew his meetings with competi-
tors to agree on prices and rig
bids were Illegal but had not
known they were criminal
until he was indicted in the
Governments antitrust case
against major firms in the in
duStry.
He said that although he
now has "a lot Of humility
about what he did, the way he
squares his conscience is that
he assumed criminal action
meant doing injury to someone.
I'VE never quoted a price not
in accord with our published
prices or below" Mr.. Thompson
said. Il felt we were trying to
protect ourselves against sharp
competitive prices"
! Mr.. Thompson said the prac-
tice was most prevalent when
prices were low and the in

supply, adding he felt he was

States today who are firmly
convinced that the Government
is on the point Of putting a
man in orbit.
This is unfortunate, because
if Alan B. Shepard is blasted
to a height of lis miles and
then parachuted into the sea
200 miles southeast of here,
such people will be distressed
that America has experienced
another rocket failure.
Limit Known
Actually. there is no more
chance of Mr.. Shepard's
orbitting the earth in a
Redstone-booSted space capsule
than there would be if he
stayed in bed. The rocket is
built to go lis miles up and
290 miles out; not materially
more, not materially less.
So first of all the imminent
MRS" launching-tentatively
set for 8 am. (EDT tomor-
rows not a prolonged
man-in-space attempt. Stand
ing by itself, it is not
much more than the up-and-
down Project Adam" exercise
which Wernher Won Braun
suggested a couple of years ago
and which was denounced by
space administration officials
as a stunt"
Secondly, there is the wide
spread assumption that pro-
found scientific results are
going to flow from the MRS
flight.
Actually, this is primarily an
engineering test of a system
designed to carry a man into
space and sustain him there.
Scientific findings are quite
likely to be nil.
Third, the belief is current
that important new thresholds
of experience are going to be
crossed by Mr.. Shepard.
Cases of Weightlessness
The fact is that this astro-
naut has already been sub
jected to all the physical
stresses of space life except
prolonged weightlessness. Even
here, Comdr. Shepard has un-
dergone zero-Gs for better than
a minute at time in the hot
jets he flies when not astro-
nauting.
A fellow test-pilot, Joe
Walker, has undergone zero-G
for two minutes in the X-15
rocket plane. Comdr. Shepard's
weightlesS stint tomorrow will
be Of five minutes duration,
not significantly longer. Fourth,
people seem to think that
Comdr. Shepard will be steer
ing his capsule expertly
through space, much as Mr..
Walker pilots the X-15.
AS a matter of fact, Comdr.
Shepard's manipulative tasks
will involve limited attitude
control Of the capsule prin-
cipally to test his ability to
function in Zero-G and heavy
gravity situations. In no sense
will bis life depend on his
ability to fly the machine.
individual Reaction
: Fifth, it is assumed that
.Comdr. Shepard's fight will
provide avid scientists with i'm
portant answers to questions
about Spacemen generally.
In reality, the only informa-
ton obtained will be limited
data on one very special man
Alan Shepard. His subjective
sensations, which Condr, Shep-
ard will relate while in flight
