Government Financing Of Candidates Probed WASHINGTON (AP)-President Kennedy named a nine-member commission today to study wheth er the government should help finance the multimillion-dollar campaign outlays of candidates for national office. Alexander Heard, dean of the graduate school, University of North Carolina, was named head of the commission. He is the au thor of "The Cost of Democracy," a book published last year which deals with campaign financing questions. The other members are: V. O. Key, Cambridge, Mass. professor of government, Harvard College.

Paul Porter, Washington lawyer and former chairman of the Fed Firing Mill Struck Over Of Employe GARDINER, Ore. (AP) - Some 250 members of the Lumber and Sawmill Workers Union struck the International Paper Co., mill at Gardiner, a mile north of Reeds port, Wednesday in a dispute over the firing of an employe. About 100 members of the Inter national Woodworkers of America respected the picket line, which was set up at 11 p.m. Tuesday. Both unions are AFL-CIO. Don Farrier, business agent for the striking union at Coos Bay, said the strike stemmed from the firing of a man who went hunting after the company had refused to give him permission. Farrier said that 11 other men had received permission to go hunting. Farrier said the man is sched uled to be drafted into military service, . but that a discharge would remove his reemployment rights when he returns from serv ice. If the firm would hire the man for only one day this week, he would not lose his rights, Farrier added. The strikers scheduled a meet ing Wednesday afternoon to deter mine what to do if the company refused to come to some agree ment with the union, a spokesman said. Company officials would not comment on the walkout. eral Communications Commission Neil Staebler, Ann Arbor, Mich., Democratic national committee man for Michigan. Walter N.

The While House described the commission as a "temporary, non partisan, study group." It is to file recommendations with Ken nedy next spring. Present law sets a $3-million ceiling on campaign expenditures by national political committees To comply with this, yet spend millions more both major parties always sprout a crop of variously named independent committees in election years. Candidates have been "forced to depend in the main on large sums from a relatively small numberi ot contributors," the president said. "It is not healthy for the democratic process or for ethical standards in our government to keep our national candidates this condition of dependence." HERALD AM) NEWS, Klamath Falls, Ore. Thursday.

The recommendations will in volve international phases of the case. At the same time the CAB directed Madden to limit his find ings to issues of capacity and ca pacity control and to the need for American flag mainland U.S.-Ta- hiti service. The CAB earlier dismissed a half-dozen petitions and motions in the reopened case, including a request by Hawaiian airlines that South Pacific Air Line's applica tion for California-Hawaii flights be excluded from the proceedings. A Continental Air Lines request, which also sought to exclude the South Pacific line's application, was also denied. . At the same time. Aviation Daily said the board has backed Madden's recommendation that Northwest Airlines be denied s hearing on a proposed unrestrict ed California-Hawaii-Tokyo route. TOKYO (UPI l The cocktail party is one aspect of Western culture" that the Red Chincsci have adopted and are putting to good use. This is the time of the year when Peiping rivals Washington, London and Paris as the cocktail capital of the world. The Red Chinese leaders are hitting the cocktail circuit hard these days with National Day just past and scores of delega tions from around the world here for the annual celebrations. The overseas broadcasts of the New China news agency and Pei ping Radio are filled with ac counts of cocktail parties tossed by Chinese government agencies and various organizations for vis itors ranging from Belgian Queen Elizabeth to grown-up youth dele gates from the Republic of Mali and from fellow-travelling Cuban President Osvaldo Dorticos to the Peipine-imposcd puppet ruler in Tibet, the Panchcn Lama.

But while the Chinese leaders are ranting against the West they must have at least a grain of sympathy deep down in their souls for Western ofticials who also are hooked on the cocktail circuit that keeps them up late and away from home.

The trouble with the banquet, though, is that all the guests must remain until it is over. The thing the Chinese apparently like about the cocktail party is that they can slip out early without ruffling any feelings. WASHINGTON AP' - Soviet astronaut Gherman Titov was somewhat seasick during most of his 25 hours in orbit around the earth, Soviet scientists reported today. They said preliminary indica tions were that the nausea was the result of extended weightless ness. In a paper for presentation to the International Astronautic Fed eration O. G. Gazenko and V. J. Yazdovsky of the Soviet Academy of Sciences noted that neither U.S. astronaut Alan Shepard, who spent five minutes under condi lions of weightlessness, nor Soviet astronaut Yuri Gagarin, who en dured zero gravity for more than an hour, noted any comparable disturbances. One of the medical questions raised by the prospect of space As speaker pro tern and major-. ity leader, McCormack would have "a leg up" to replace Ray burn on a permanent basis. He has been Democratic leader since 194a except for four years when; Republicans controlled the House. Rayburn was party leader during those four years. McCormack's leadership posi tion has given him an opportun ity to build an organization which would be hard to topple in a few months. Any challenger might well run the risk of political oblivion if he lost, for the speaker can go a long way toward mak ing or breaking a party member in the House. Mentioned prominently as a possible successor to Rayburn is veteran Rep. Francis E. Walter of Pennsylvania, who may recon sider his recently announced deci sion not to seek reelection. Wal ler has a strong following among Southern Democrats. As chair man of the controversial Un American Activities Committee. Walter probably would lose the support of some liberal Demo- travel has been whether the hu man system could endure long periods without the familiar ef fects of gravity.

Balance is regulated in the inner ear. These sensations became strong er and stronger during the flight, especially when Titov turned his head sharply or was observing McCormack, who will be 70 next Dec. 21. A political donnybrook could de velop over the majority leader ship if McCormack vacated that post to become speaker. Southerners would claim the leadership if tne speakership went to a Yankee, either McCormack or Walter. There are plenty of po tential candidates from Southern and border states. Albert of Oklahoma would rate the inside track by virtue of be ing acting leader as well as par ty whip. He is serving his 15th year in the House, is one of its more popular members and has strong Southern backing. Other Soutnerners whose names crop up in speculation over the leadership assignment include Hale Bogus of Louisiana, Wilbur D. Mills of Arkansas and Albert Rains of Alabama. Richard Boi ling of Missouri, a border state, also has been mentioned. The party leader is chosen at a Democratic caucus. Each party also chooses its can didate for speaker and the entire House does the electing. The par ty in control invariably elects its man. swiftly moving objects For some time after Titov woke from his nap the sensations de creased, but they did not disap pear until he began to feel the spaceship's deceleration on its re turn into the atmosphere.
