Indonesia Breaks Off
Diplomatic Relations
With The Netherlands
JAKARTA, Indonesia, Ufi —
President Sukarno today broke
diplomatic relations with the
Netherlands because the Dutch
sent an aircraft carrier to dis
puted West New Guinea.
Observers generally believed
that the break, which had been
expected for some time, would be
followed up by seizure of such
jointly owned interests as the
Shell Oil holdings and Unilever’s
vast plantations. Both are owned
by British and Dutch stockhold
ers.

Air Force Captain
Falls 102,000 Feet
From Space Etlge
TULAROSA, N. M., UP — Air
Force Capt. Joseph Kittinger yes
terday stepped from an open bal
loon gondola at a record altitude
and fell more than 102,000 feet
in a parachute test from the edge
of space.
The Air Force officer broke a
number of high altitude records
in his dawn plunge from high
above the New Mexico desert.
Air Force spokesmen said the
exact altitude from which he
jumped was not immediately de
termined but it was a minimum
of 102,000 feet and a maximum of
103,300.
Radar observations, which were
hampered by a high overcast,
measured the lower altitude and
instruments carried in Kittinger’s
open gondola measured the higher
altitude.
The tremendous balloon flight
and following jump established
these records.
1. Highest manned ballon
flight, bettering the 102,500 feet
set by Lt. Col. David G. Simons
in a closed gondola.
2. Highest flight in an open
gondola, besting the record of
76,400 feet set last year by Kit
tinger in another high altitude
parachute jump.
3. Longest free fall. Kittinger
had set this record last year in
his leap from 76,400 feet.
He was in free fall for 4 min
utes, 38 seconds, before opening
his main chute 17,500 feet above
the desert. It took 13 minutes, 8
seconds for him to reach the
ground after leaving the gondola.
Air Force spokesmen said one
of the main purposes of Tuesday’s
jump was to test the small stabil
izing chute used to prevent spins
and keep a parachutist from
blacking out.
The stabilizing chute, with a
6-foot canopy, opened 13 seconds
after bail out.
This chute checked his velocity
only minutely. The Air Force es
timated Kittinger fell at a top
speed of about 450 miles an hour
during the free fall portion of his
jump.
The captain appeared in fine
condition. He was given a com
plete physical checkup and then
talked with newsmen.
