Astronauts' Story Bid Is Withdrawn

posed continuation Of the sort
of arrangements by which Life
magazine got exclusive per-
sonal-story rights on the seven
original astronauts during Pro-
ject Mercury's lifetime, which
ended last month.
Candidates for the second
crop of astronauts, indicted
into the program last year,
were notified that no Life-type
deal would be permitted, but
this policy was changed late
last summer, repeatedly on Or
der of President Kennedy.
One of the new astronauts
1t. Comdr. Charles Conrad
was asked two months age
about his view of the propriety
of memoir-peddling. Recalling
that his group had been noti-
fled originally of a ban on story
sales, he said this ruling had
been reversed by order Of the
President.
Hes our Commander In
Chief, and if it's all right with
him it's all right with u.s.

would be received, NASA issued
a statement of policy covering
such agreements. On its face,
the policy statement appeared
not greatly different from the
ground rules covering the orig
inal Life contract of 1859; but
when negotiations started, 1t
became apparent that the rules
were being applied much more
strictly.
A number Of proposals were
made by publishing organiza-
tons, repeatedly including Life
the New York Times and the
Associated Press. NASA Sc
lected the Field organization
to negotiate a contract, report
edly because of non-profit
educational aspects of the Field
proposal.
Field Enterprise Educational
Corp. is a non-profit subsidiary
of Field Enterprises, Inc, and
publishes World Book Encyclo-
pedia, among other things.
NASA was not a party to the
contract. but apparently it was
the agency's supervisory zeal
that caused negotiations to
break down at last. Harry A.

was a "subcontractor" to Field

With the withdrawal of Field
from the bargaining arena, the
way ostensibly is now open for
other interested parties to make
the astronauts an offer. But
there were growing indications
that newcomers with more
commercial" propositions
would find 1t even harder to
bring NASA to a meeting of the
minds than Field did.

Kennedy Urges
Party Leaders
To Push Tax Bill

President Kennedy re-em-
.phaSized the Importance of
early passage of a bill to cut
income taxes at a breakfast
conference with Democratic
congressional leaders today.
House Speaker Mccormack,
describing the tax-cutting as
"of vital Importance to the
economy" told reporters after
wards that he would make
every effort to get the legisla-
ton through the House as
quickly as possible.
The Speaker said that, so
far as he is concerned, both
the tax bill and new civil rights
legislation are matters of
"uppermoSt priority"
He said he thought it would
confuse the situation" to at
tempt to assign No. priority to
either measure.

Negotiations between the
space agency and a Chicago
publisher over the aStronauts'
personal story rights have COL
lapsed.
Field Enterprises Educational
Corp. announced last night that
it was withdrawing its $3.2
million contract proposal made
to the Is astronauts. Inability
to obtain a meeting of the
minds" was given as the reason
for terminating negotiations
that have gone on for longer
than six months.
The National Aeronautics and
Space Administration refused
to comment until noon, when
it issued a brief statement
saying that apparently the
reviSions Ito the contract) sug-

had happened.

Final Spoce-Fund Cuts
Approved byHouse-Unit

The House Space Committee
today approved the last of q
series of cuts in the space
agency's 1864 authorization
Total reductions now stand at
$490.8 million, or roughly SO
per cent of the $5,7l2.000, 900
requested by President Ken
nedy.
Final action came with full
committee approval of reduc-
tons in authorizations for
applications, tracking and ad-
miniStration." These funds
were reduced from $1,023, 803,-
900 to 1897, 1893, 900.
Close to Half Billion
The agency-wide reductions
thus came close to the $500
million which had long been
predicted as Congress target
for the coming fiscal year in
space. Administrator James E.
Webb has already stated that If
a half-billion cut is allowed to
stand, his National Aeronautics
and Space Administration may
not be able to meet President
Kennedy's goal of men on the
moon in the SOS.
The applications" part of
the authorization approved to-
day included $63.7 million for
weather satellites and 1922
million for communications
satellites. Representative Hech-
Ter, Democrat Of West Vir-
GINA, who headed the subcom-
mittee handling the requests,
said weather-satellite funding
was not touched and the $50
million reduction in commune
cations was really a deferment
Of spending rather than an
actual cut.
The biggest part Of the $685.
$4,000 slashed by the Hechler
group came in administration,
chiefly salaries, travel and
housekeeping for the sprawl
ing agency; $25 million in SAL
aries alone was trimmed from
the administration authorize
ton.
A small but significant cut
Of $40 million came in the
funds for NASA's worldwide
tracking system. NASA had
Evening star. [volume] (Washington, D.C.) 1854-1972, 1963-07-09

asked 500 million to modify
three ships for permanent use
in the Apollo moon program
tracking net.
Mr.. Hechler said his subcom-
mittee called in Pentagon rep
reSentativeS and asked what
the Defense Department could
do about ships. The military
representatives said they could
modify four vessels and equip
one new one for a total of $50
million.
The committee then cut SO
million from NASA's tracking
request and directed the agency
to transfer the remaining $50
million to the Defense Depart
ment.

Mitchell Of Newburgh
Hired by Birch Society

NEWBURGH, N. Y, July 9
(AP). - City Manager Joseph
Mitchell, whose public welfare
breakdown here caused a ma
tional controversy two years
ago, has resigned and said he
will take a job with the John
Birch Society.
He said he will do "organi-
rational work on the Eastern
6eaboard," beginning next fall.
In his letter of resignation
to the city council yesterday,
Mr.. Mitchell said:
"The controversial but we'll
meaning welfare breakdown did
in fact reduce our welfare bur-
den and permitted a tax re-
duction for one year without
harming in any way the in
terests of welfare clients or
workers"
Controversial Move
The frightened welfare code
was condemned by New York
State and Federal welfare Of
ficials and by groups and in
dividuals across the Nation.
But it was Endorsed by many,
including such conservative
leaders as Senator Goldwater,
Republican Of Arizona.
In litigation instituted by
State officials, the State Su-
preme Court invalidated IL of
the 10 points in Mr.. Mitchell's
welfare code.
Mr.. Mitchell, Al, was acquit-
ted last April by q jury in New
York City on bribery conspir-
acy charges growing out of a
Newburgh rezoning deal.
Mr.. Mitchell suspended him.
self after he and a New Jersey
real estate man were indicted
on the charges last December.
Mr.. Mitchell returned to his
post after he and the real
estate man were acquitted.
Mr.. Mitchell, a Republican,
contended he was the victim of
political opponents.
Tried in New York
The trial was held in New
York City because the State
charged that the real estate
mantle alleged go-between-|
accepted $4,000 in a hotel
room there from two brothers
who wanted a coming change
to permit a housing develop
ment.
After the acquittal, Mr..
Mitchell's resignation was de-
manded by a number of per-
sons. including Mayor william
Ryan, only Democrat on the
city council.
Mr.. Mitchell's letter yester-
day asked that the city coun-
Gil make his resignation eff
fective october IL. He asked 80
days leave beginning Septem-
