House Backs Bill
On Lewd Literature
' Washington, IP The
House passed a bill Monday
to lighten federal controls on
distribution of pornographic
matter.
Approved b y unanimous
consent, the mearsure was re
quested by the post office de
partment. The legislation now
goes to the senate.
Transportation of obscene
matter by "common carrier"
as opposed to the mails
also would be outlawed.
Present penalties of $5,000
fine and five years in jail,
now applicable to the senders,
would be doubled.
The post office requested
the bill after the U. S. Court
of Appeals held that the of
fense could be prosecuted
only in the judicial district
where the pornography was
mailed. The new bill would
permit prosecution at the
city of delivery as well, or at
any point in between.
Elsewhere in Congress:
Mouse: Maj. Gen. Bernard
A. Schiever, commander of
the Air Force Ballistic Mis
siles Division,, apologized to
Congress for denying there
was a mouse aboard a rocket
fired into the upper atmos
phere. The apology was in
response to a letter from
Chairman John E. Moss (D.
Calif.) of a House Government
Information Subcommittee.
Moss had demanded an ex
planation after the Air Force
confirmed officially April 28
that the mouse had been seal
ed in the rocket nose. Schrie
ver told the House Space
Committee April that no ani
mal was aboard.
Air transport: Dudley C.
Sharp, assistant secretary for
air, asked the Senate Com
merce Committee not to crip
ple the Military Air Trans
port Service merely because
commercial airlines complain
it competes with tnem tuv
fairly. He said the MATS fleet
is necessary to defense and
''must be kept in readiness."
Lt. Gen. William H. Tunner,
Air Force deputy chief of
must be "immediately respon
sive" to military orders.
Railroads: G. E. Leighty,
chairman of the Railway La
bor Executives Association
said the railroads brought on
many of their financial diffi
culties through lack of "com
petitive spirit and sound ag
gressive management." He
said they should compete for
business instead of complain
ing about declines. He testi
fied before a House subcom
mittee that is considering
railroad aid legislation.
Defense: Chairman Richard
B. Russell (D.-Ga.) of the Sen
ate Armed Services Commit
tee, said he believes Congress
will work out a military reor
ganization bill "reasonably
satisfactory to everybody."

Portland (IP Sen. John
F. Kennedy (D-Mass.) warned
Monday night that this coun

economic forces than military
forces.
Kennedy, winding up a two
day visit to Oregon with a
speech at Portland State Col

the matter is that we stand in
greater danger of losing out
in our titanic competition with
the Russians without a single
missle ever being fired."
Kennedy, mentioned as a
possible presidential candidate
in I960-, said Russia's "ruble
diplomacy" has become "the
main sword of Communist
policy in the uncommitted and
underdeveloped world." H e
