House Committee Again Rejects Gas Tax Bill

WASHINGTON, R-The House Ways and Means Committee today rejected for the second time an increase in the federal gasoline tax to keep the interstate pro- gram from coming to a halt for lack of funds.
 The committee scheduled an other effort Tuesday to solve the highway financing crisis.
 The committee turned down a proposal to four cents a gallon for the remaining 21 months of the next two fiscal years which end June 30, 1861.
 The Ways and Means Commit tee, which is charged with raising the funds to satisfy authoriza- tions set by the Public Works Committee, thus was back where it started July 29.
 By it's action today, it recon sidered and put aside plan voted on that date to issue a bill lion dollars of revenue bonds to tide the highway program over the short-range financial crisis.

Pope Calling
 Church Gathering In Appeal for Unity

VATICAN CITY, R - Pope John XXIII says the main aim of the forthcoming Ecumenical Coun- cil will be to strengthen the Ro- man Catholic Church as a first step toward an appeal to Protes- tants for church unity.
 The Pope made this statement in a speech more than one week ago to a group of Italian Catholic ac- lished in today's issue of the Vat tion leaders. The speech was pub ican newspaper. A date for the council meeting has not been set.
 "The main aim of the ecumen- ical council will be that of strengthening and invigorating the Roman Catholic Church." the Pope said.
 "Then, when the Catholic church is in it's full splendor, we will say to Orthodox, Protestants, etc. You can see, brothers, this is the church of Christ. Come, come! This is the way open to a meeting, to a return! Come to take, or take back, your place which, for many of you, is that of your ancient fathers.
 From a religious peace, from a reunited Christian family, oh, what joy! We can expect pros perity even in the civic and so- cial order of the entire world"

Hoover, 85 Today, Offers Khrushchev Immortal Fame

NEW YORK, R - Herbert Hoover, 85 today, says Nikita Khrushchev could bring with him to the United States the greatest gift mankind as received in 1000 years - peace.
 "But this is unlikely to be the result of this visit," the former President added.
 "He could interpret his oft-re- peated statement as to peaceful CO., existence" Hoover said Sunday, 'as eliminating all international demands, all warnings, all threats and all conspiracies against free people"
 Such move, said Hoover, could win the Soviet Premier tim mortality among the leaders of all men,"
 But, he added, the possibility that Khrushchev would make such a move IS remote because the tactics of the Communists may change, but their determination to dominate the world continues. "
 Hoover appeared on Meet The Press" over NBC-TV.
 Only one other former Presi- dent, John Adams, celebrated more birthdays than Hoover. Adams died when he was 90.
 The ruddy- faced, white-haired Hoover has a simple formula for longevity - work. He illustrates it today by spending his birthday at his desk.
 He keeps six secretaries busy with his massive correspondence and activities in various organi- cations.

ROCK ISLAND, H., tR - Op- orators of the Centennial Bridge over the Mississippi River be- tween Rock Island and Daven- port, Iowa, have suspended all 13 toll collectors, after disclosing a shortage in toll funda up to $75O,OOO.
 Acting on information supplied by state authorities and the FBI, the bridge commission Sunday suspended the collectors. City policemen took over their jobs in the emergency.
 Bernard J. Moran, Rock Island County states attorney, said a wholesale footing of tolls probably started soon after the bridge, owned by the city, was opened in 194O. The bridge is used by an average of 10000 autos and POGO trucks daily.
 The commission decided Sun day, at a hastily called meeting, to install automatic toll-collect- ing equipment on the bridge i'm mediately.
 Franklin Wingard of Rock Is land, chairman of the commission, said thefts were made possible by defective design of a treadle sys- tenn which automatically counted

U. s. Scientists Hope To Prevent Cape Thompson A-Blasts' 'Rattling' Siberia

It was these air-ducting layers that caused shock waves from the Nevada atom bomb tests to leap frog over the immediate surround ing areas and come down 70 miles or more away on Las Vegas and other inhabited places with win dow-busting effect, the two scien- tists, J. w. Reed and H. w. Church of the Sandia Corp, said.
 About one-third of the time at Kotzebue a ducting layer will be present below 50,000 feet altitude. When a bomb produces a shock wave capable of instantly boosting atmospheric pressure momentari- ly by about 3 per cent, (duct can carry the shock 100 miles and break windows, the researchers said.
 During the spring of 1861 the scientists plan to establish the air. ducting pattern around the Kot- zebue area with conventional ex- plosives.
 The problem is to find out whe- ther Siberia would be in the line of reflected shock waves during early fall or spring, the research CTS said.
 If it is found that excessive shock pressures will be carried to Siberia during certain periods the nuclear firing will be delayed un- til the duct pattern shifts.

One Dead In Crash Of Navy Blimp At
 New Jersey Base
By RUSSELL H. MULLEN

LAKEHURST, N. J., R - One crewman was killed early yester- day when a silvery Navy blimr crashed into a hangar while at- tempting to land in a dense fog Six crewmen, were hospitalized and several others suffered minor injuries.
 The wreckage was wedged in the hangar roof 150 feet above the ground.
 Rescue workers clambered over the roof and removed the in jured crewmen who had been trapped in the blimp's gondola.
 The dead man was identified as It. G.g) David Malcolm Lloyd of Vega, Tex. He had been crushed in the wreckage.
 The ZPG-2 blimp was return ing from a routine 21-hour anti submarine early morning patrol. It was making a radar-controlled instrument approach through a swirling fog that blanketed out everything more than 100 feet away.
 It. Cmdr. Herman Snahn, ad- ministrative officer of Sqdn. 3, to which the craft was attached, said:
 ''The fog was so bad we-radioed the blinp to gain altitude and try to come in again" It was just picking up speed to 45. miles an hour when it hit.
 The huge bag was ripped by the wreckage and it's million cubic feet of helium whooshed out through its rent sides. The gas is non-inflammable, and dispersed without harm into the fog.
 Rescuers at first were unable to locate four officers and two men beneath the entangling sheets of the 343-foot-long bag. They were found in the fore part of the metal alloy gondola.
 The crew members in the rear of the car were unhurt, and made their way down. ladders to safety.
 There was a total of eight off cers and 10 enlisted men aboard.

Canine Pet-Degree

NEW YORK, R - Turning from his speech to top scientists last ngiht, President Eisenhower told a joke and got a big laugh from his audience.
 The joke concerned a man who named his hunting do5s after members of college faculty. When the faculty wives com plained, the man named the dogs with academic ranks.
 A man from Chicago rented a dog named instructor" for $2.50 a day. The fee for the same dog the next year was $5, the owner explaining the dog had been pro- noted to assistant professor.
 The third year the fee was $1O Ill the dog had become a full pro- lessor.
 The President said that, in the fourth year, the man was unable to rent the dog at all because the canine had been made a college president and that all he did was "sit around and howl and bark and he ain't worth shootin'.'

 SAN FRANCISCO, tR III Two scientists disclosed yesterday they are taking steps to prevent re- flected shock waves from breaking windows and causing other dam age in Soviet Siberia when they use big nuclear bombs to create a new harbor in Alaska.
 As planned by the U. s. govern ment, five nuclear bombs will be set off, probably in 1861, to exca- vate a harbor on Kotzebue Sound, on the Northwestern Alaska coast.
 The site is only about 200 miles from Siberia. The researchers said they had learned that under cer- tain conditions shock waves could carom off upper air layers and return to earth more than 300 miles away with damaging effect.
