Symington Secured Spotlight Role in Space Agency Inquiry
Washington AP Sen. Stuart Symington was named by Senate Democratic Leader Lyndon B. Johnson to head a subcommittee probing duplications among 14 government space agencies. The Missouri Democrat will map agency roles, head off authority conflicts, and push related legislation. He remains aDefense critic amid 1960 presidential speculation. He previously resigned as Air Force secretary in 1950 over armament cuts, and now focuses mostly on defense while other possible contenders diversify. Johnson leads Senate across diverse issues, including State of the Union remarks.
