Ellsworth Says 'Let's Go Home' As House Ponders Physical Discomfort WASHINGTON, July 7. OP) Congressional leaders hoping that Congress : will - adjourn before long found an unexpected ally " yesterday in the form of an arti ficial cold wave. As far as the House of Repre sentatives is concerned, it might be a "ireeze out before long. - The air conditioning system Is working too well. Members In the rear of the caucus room which is serving as a House cnamner during capnoi repairs felt the "cold wave" more than othcrR. The huge ducts v through which the cooled air is blown Into the chamber enter from the back of the room and the temperature there is consid erably lower than up front. Apparently no relief is In sight. Experts explained that if the alr conditioning Is adjusted to make it less frigid In the rear of the chamber it will be too warm up iront. Rep. Ellsworth (R.-Ore.) sum med up his reactions: "Let's go home. Ellsworth coupled the Wash ington heat (except In the rear of the House quarters) along with cramped space as a good reason to' go home. "I don't think there is a single constructive thing Congress can do by staying In session," he told a reporter. "We should get the appropriation bills out of the way and get out." . WASHINGTON, July 6. 'UP) The Air Force is looking for a one-man fighter plane with a "robot co pilot" to help hit bomb ers flying at ultra high altitude and speed. If planners can make their present ideas come true, the pil. of such a plane may never even see the enemy bomber his radar framed assistant discovers and shoots down. The newly-announced XF-94 radar-equipped jet lighter, a two man plane in its present version, is viewed as a first step toward this goal, It was learned today. The lockheed XF-94 Is consid ered a "24-hour fighter" which means that by the use or its ra dar eyes it can battle either day or night, or in any weather, at extreme altitudes which place a severe strain on a pilot. Two Features Offered Although basically an F-80 standard Jet fighter, the XF-94 has two features which convert it into a specialized interceptor type: A radar operator to locate an enemy bomber and help the fighter pilot close in on It; and an "afterburner" device to boost the normal power of the jet en gine and thus enable the airplane to climb rapidly to the altitude of the attacking bomber. But an extra man and extra radar equipment aboard a fighter plane already overstuffed wit weighty equipment limils the per formance of the aircraft. So designers are working on a one-package job, an entirely new model in whlcn automatic elec tronic equipment would replace the radar operator. Tough Problem Faced Air lighting at altitudes 4U,wu feet or more above the earth con fronts jet pilots with new, tough problems: The extra-high speed, the loss of contact with the ground, and disappearance of the horizon, which a pilot sights on to maneuver his plane. These problems keep a pilot so busy he hasn't time to let his glance shift to a radar screen. frt Itwnt fhla ettiiatlsin uuoral I plans are being made or consid ered, including: 1. A radar set which will show the pilot at a glance (A) the po sition of the bomber he is attack ing; IB) whether his plane is In the correct flying position; (C) the horizon, even though it is ob scured by underlying clouds or darkness. 2. The possibility of linking the Interceptor's radar eyes to the plane's controls and guns so that it "homes in" on the bomber tar get and open fire when in range, all automatically. Should this ultimate objective be attained, a fighter pilot may find he is just going along for the ride, except for the job of taking off and landing his plane.
