Congress May Be
Prodded Into Farm
Legislation Action
WASHINGTON ( AP)-Secrelary
of Agriculture Benson and leaders
of the American Farm Bureau
Federation reportedly are count
ing on grass roots pressure lo
prod Congress into enacting farm
legislation before adjournment.
This word came from Agricul

planting restrictions on cotlon and
rice. He also was likely to call fur
renewal of a farm surplus disposal
program that died June 30, and

as far as a Senate bill toward
lowering price supports. The Sen
ate bill was favored by Benson
and Republican leaders in the
House. The Farm Buraau also
backed the Senate version.
After the House action Wednes

cerned, that ends any prospect of
farm legislation at this waning
session.
There was no indication Friday
of any change In the situation in

Sending Manned
Balloon Into Space
MINNEAPOLIS (AP) The Air

plans to send a manned balloon!
lo the fringe of space after one
carrying a monkey failed to make
the grade. I
Capt. Grover J. Schoclc of the
Air Force's space biology branch
will take a stratosphere ride next
week in the same liny gondola in
which the world's record balloon
altitude record was set.
A female monkey, along with
some frogs, goldfish, fruit flies
and other small organisms, went
aloft Thursday from an open pit
iron mine near Crosby, Minn.
Slung beneath the biggest bal
loon ever built, the animals reach
ed about 60.000 feet, but the huge,
helium-filled bag ripped open aod

the iron mine.
A waterbag holding the goldfish
burst on landing and the fish died.
The monkey and other animals
survived.
The big balloon, 2.13 feet in dia
meter, was to have gone to 135,000
feet for cosmic ray tests. It was
the second five million cubic feet
balloon lo burst in slightly more
than a week. On July 30 the first
balloon broke apart in a jet
stream. When Capt. Schock goes aloft
next week, he will be carried by
a substantially smaller balloon.
He will be enclosed in the , same
aluminum capcule that carried
Lt. Col. David G. Simons to a rec

Kierdorf) gave us before wai t
tis-sue of lies."
Adams disclosed that Frank
Fitzsimmons, vice president of
Teamster Local 299 in Detroit, is
wanted for questioning because he
reportedly turned over title of a
union Cadillac to Herman Kier
dorf, providing funds for Kicr
dorf'i flight.
Local 299 is the home local of
James R. Hoffa, international
president of the Teamsters Union.
The Detroit Timess said earlier
Friday that Kierdorf,'56, made his
deathbed confession three hours
after he was converted to Cathol
icism and baptized by the Rev.
Edwin A. Schroeder, a Catholic
chaplain.
Changed Story
Kierdorf had insisted he was set
afire by two men who lured him
from his home Sunday night,
doused him with an inflammable
fluid and ignited it. The Times said
he changed his story in his last
hours of life.
However, Michigan Atty. Gen.
Paul L. Adams told newsmen he
was convinced Kierdorf was caught
in a blazing trap while trying to
set a Flint dry cleaning shop Hfire.
Witness Stops Car
A secret witness had told police
he stopped his car when he saw
the fire, watched two men running
from the building and then heard
a third man screaming inside,
Adams said.
"We are left with the possibili
ties that this was an organized at
tempt as part of Kierdorf's union
activity or that he did it on hii
own ' he said.
Adams said the evidence now
gave "every indication that a
charge of arson can be laid." and
added that there were indications
