ContrdctsHit
Kennedy Advisers
Want Government
To Do Most Jobs
By JOSEPH YOUNG
Star Staff Writer

A special presidential COM
mittee composed of top admin
Stration officials will recon-
mend to President Kennedy
that the Government curtail
the contracting out of it's re-
search and development work
to outside firms and institu-
tionS, it was learned yesterday.
Mr.. Kennedy appointed the
group last year to make a study
and recommendations of Fed
eral contracting-out policies
following congressional criticism
that too much of this was 60
ing on.
The Government now spends
about $12 billion a year in re-
search and development prof.
ectS in defense, science and
space.
The White House is expected
to release the report within the
next week or so. Headed by
Budget Director David Bell,
the committee also includes
John Macy, Civil Service Com
mission chairman, and Jerome
Wiesner, White House assis-
tant.
Too Much Farming Out
The committee found that
the Government is now doing
too much contracting out to
private firms and universities
as well as nonprofit corpor-
ations especially set up by the
Government to do this kind Of
work.
While not recommending
that the Government do all of
its research and development
work. the committee is ex-
Ipected to recommend that the
Government do a major share
Of it.
The committee found that
extensive contracting out of
research and development has
led to a deterioration Of Gov
ernment laboratories and units
engaged in such work. In many
instances it found that Fed
eral research and development
units were becoming second
class outfits because of the
loss Of key personnel to the
various firms doing work for
the Government. Loss of pres
tige was attributed to the fact
they weren't getting important
projects.
Higher Salaries Paid
This led to another factor
criticized by the Presidential
committee-firms with Govern
ment contracts were using Fed
eral funds to pay higher SAL
aries to scientists, engineers,
researchers and technicians,
thus Turing away such talent
from the Government.
Another fault reported by the
committee was that the Gov
ernment cannot adequately
control and supervise its re-
search and development projects
if too much of it is farmed out.
Could Save U. S. Funds
The committee also felt that
it would be much less costly
if the Government could do
more of its own research and
development work.
Both the House Appropri-
ations Committee and the
House Civil Service manpower
subcommittee have criticized
the Governments present pol
icies in contracting out re-
search and development work.

The plane was on the ground
for nearly an hour before the

No Money Paid
The negotiators said that so

that the money for them will be

The returnees pledged they
would return voluntarily to Ha-

return but a negotiating team

Hearings Due
On Protection
For Investors
House Member
Says D. c. Needs
Corrective Action
By MIRIAM GUTENBERG
Star Staff Writer

A House Commerce subcom-
mittee plans to investigate the
dangers faced by Washington
investors and what must be
done to protect them against
unScrupulous or unqualified
stock dealers.
Chairman Mack of the Com
merce and Finance Subcom-
mittee, which handles SEC
legislation, said yesterday the
hearings will be held next
month. Arrangements for the
hearings. including the dates
and witnesses. will be an
nounced this week, he said.
There are certainly activi-
ties here that are undesirable
and some administrative or le-
gal action needs to be TAKEN"
Mr.. Mack said.
He said his attention was di-
rected to the deficiencies in the
protection of Washington in
vestors by a series in The Star
entitled Investors Beware"
which ran from February 4 to
February Z.
Stars Facts Verified
IT communicated Immediate
ly with the SEC" he said, "and
was told that officials there
were familiar with The Stars
articles and many Of the facts
in them had been substantiated
by consultation with members
of the SEC staff"
Mr.. Mack said his preliminary
SEC inquiries indicated that
everybody seems to agree we
need corrective action"
The Illinois Democrat was
the prime mover for legislation
authorizing the SEC to make
a 0,000 investigation of the
securities business nationally.
His planned inquiry here is the
first congressional airing Of the
problems facing Washington
investors.
No Protection in d. C.
He noted that unlike 48 of
the so States, the District has
no local legislation to protect
stock buyers, although the Sc
curities acts passed by Con-
gress envisaged that the States
would share the responsibility
for regulating investment firms.
MY committee is most in
terested in this matter" Mr..
Mack said. "If there is a de-
ficiency in the District, we
would like to see the loophole
closed.
while it is true that the
SEC has a great responsibility
all over the country, we
wouldn't want a vacuum exist
ing right here under their
noses"
SEC officials will be the first
witnesses, Mr.. Mack said.
Protection for Investors
1--WE will want their sugges-
tions as to what needs to be
done to adequately protect the
investing public in the Dis
trict," Mr.. Mack explained.
Several matters need to be
clarified-whether the Federal
agency has adequately dis
arged its responsibilities,
whether an amendment to the
Securities Act is necessary to
give the SEC further RESPONSE
bility in this area, whether it
would be advisable to establish
a securities commission for the
District, or whether some exist
ing agency in the District gov
ernment should have this re-
sponsibility."
Mr.. Mack noted that the
SEC has defined its RESPONSE
bility over securities in inter-
state commerce to include the
District. While this covers
stocks. however. it does not
cover the experience or starting
capital of the investment firm.
The Stars Investors Be-
ware" series pointed out that

ing up between washington
and Bonn. They reflect a grow
ing lack of trust on both sides.
The State Department pro-
tested to the Germans against
what administration officials
considered a deliberate leak of
n f m a tion about United
States proposals for the new
round of Berlin discussions.
The West German govern
ment denied responsibility for
any leak.
Press reports from Bonn in
dicated sharp displeasure with
the trend of United States
thinking and a lack Of conf
dence in where the Kennedy
administration would draw the
line on accommodations of
Western policy with Soviet pol
icy in its attempts to reach a
settlement.
Kennedy Informed
Informants here said Mr..
Adenauer had made his objec-
ton known in unmistakable
terms and for consideration by
President Kennedy. Diplomats
said he seemed to be annoyed
and upset by indications he saw
in the United States negotiat-
ing plan that the Kennedy ad-
ministration is willing to move
toward at least limited, prac-
tical recognition of East Ger
many.
Word Of the plan was re-
ported from Bonn Friday with
such precision that the first
reaction of top officials in the
government here was a combi-
nation of anger and shock.
They suspected there was a
calculated leak designed to
arouse opposition against ideas
set forth in a United States
memo circulated to Bonn, Lon
don and Paris.
