Cloud Rocket
Flight Foils;
Others Ready
By the Associated Press

N--~
A Nike-Asp rocket shot into
the air today but failed to
create an orange-yellow cloud
$50 miles above the earth.
The launching was part OF
a study of high latitude winds
by the National Aeronautics
and Space Administration.
The 27-foot, two-stage rocke;
was launched from the Wal
lops Island CVaJ station al
1857 am, EST.
NAsA wanted the rocket to
create the colored cloud SC
cameras could record the high
altitude wind actions.
But the Nike-ASp rever got
high enough. The rocket failed
during the burning of the sec
ond stage.
A second mpt in 9
planned series of three Is
scheduled for twilight tonight
weather permitting A final
shot in the series is planned
for dawn tomorrow.
The rocket nose contained
a 10-pound package of sodium
pellets. The pellets we're tc
have been ignited by thermite
more than 100 miles above the
earth, producing the orange
yellow cloud.
Two of three similar shots
last August and one shot or
November 1e were successful
and their clouds we're observed
over a wide area.

O considerable extent on the
necessity not only of another
one-year extension of the cor
porate income and excise tax
rates. but also on several eco
nomic and congressional de-
velopments.
He said such a surplus would
be reduced greatly if Congress
failed to enact administration
proposals to increase postal
rates and the Federal gasoline
tax.
He added that it also would
be threatened by substantially
greater governmental spending
If Congress passes several "un-
budgeted bills" He listed those
as pay raises for Federal EN-
ployess school construction,
emergency housing, benefits for
peacetime ex-servicemen and
new tax deductions for con-
tributions to voluntary pension
plans.
Could Have Deficit
Thus" Mr.. STAINS said, "a
combination of unfavorable
circumstances could easily
cause us to end up with a sub
stantial deficit in 1861 even
with an extension of present
tax rates"
Mr.. Anderson emphasized
that continuation of the present
So per cent corporation income
tax rate and the so-called "Ko-
Irean War" exciseS on alcoholic
beverages, cigarettes. passenger
automobiles and accessories,
and telephones and transpor-
tation services, was essential
not only for a budget surplus,
but for reduction of the ma
tional debt.
Achievement of the Presi-
dents budget program for 1861
depends basically. of course,
upon the support of the Ameri-
can people," Mr.. Anderson de-
clared. ITO maintain full con-
fldence in the ability of the
Government to manage its
affairs wisely, consonant with
our position as a leader of the
Free World. we must continue
to strive vigorously to attain
budget surpluseS during periods
of high levels of business ac-
tivity and. for the present at
least, these surpluses should be
used to reduce outstanding
debt"

scheduled to address the open
ing session of the SEATO
meeting Tuesday. Some mem
bers of the eight-nation alli-
ance reportedly have COM
planned about this on the
grounds that it is customary
for the chief of government
of the host nation to open
SEATO conferences.
Mr.. Hagerty indicated that
the President is considering
speaking at another SEATO
session next week, leaving Mr..
Nixon to deliver the opening
welcome address as now sched-
uled. But he did not rule out
the possibility that the Presi-
dent might replace the Vice
President at the opening ses-
sion.
Presumably the objections of
Asian members of the, council
could play a part in the Pres
ident's reconsideration of his
original decision to have Mr.
Nixon address the opening ses-
sion. Also in the picture is the
fact that Mr.. Eisenhower re-
turned home earlier than ex-
pected from Paris and the COL
lapsed summit conference.
At the time the plan was
made for Mr.. Nixon to address
the SEATO session here Tues
day, Mr.. Eisenhower thought
he might still be in Paris.
A presidential decision to
speak at the opening SEATC
meeting, as we'll as to have
delegates at a White House
luncheon, would serve to en-
phasize the importance at
tached by this Government to
its mutual defense alliances in
the period of increased cold
war tension.
A four-day meeting of the
military advisers of SEATO is
scheduled to open tomorrow at
10 am. at the Interdepart-
mental Auditorium by Defense
Secretary Gates. The cere-
monies will be open to the
public.

TOKYO, May "a AP).-
United States Ambassador
Douglas Macarthur II today
accused the Japanese Socialists
of propaganda motives in in

Mr.. Macarthur made the
charge in a tense, one-hour
verbal exchange with Socialist

him to present an open letter

of his trip because of the cur
rent japanese political crisis

in a statement said the Am
bassador told Mr.. ASaguna the
letter and the call were "pri-
marily for propaganda pur-

S293 Billion
Debt Ceiling
BY ROBERT X. WALSH
Star Stan Writer

Treasury Secretary Anderson
asked Congress today to fix q
1898 billion temporary ceiling
on the national debt and leave
unchanged the present corpo-
ration income tax rate and
various excises to prevent q
$2.7 billion drop in Govern
ment revenue.
He told the House Ways and
Means Committee that a
hoped for $4.2 billion budget
surplus during the coming fis-
cal year would be seriously
threatened If those rates were
allowed to be reduced June 80
He also requested that Con-
gress postpone for another year
the previously scheduled July
effective date for repeal of the
10 per cent tax on local tele-
phone service and a reduction
from 10 to S per cent in the
tax on air rail and bus paSsen-
ger transportation.
The committee had only {
general discussion today, bur

quest. Members predicted ap.

which otherwise would e

Congress has granted such ex.
tensions annually for the las
six years.
Doubt on Debt Vote
There was some doubt, how.
ever. how the committee might
vote on the requested ceilins
figure and the proposed post.
ponement of the tax cuts Con.
gresS voted last year on tele-
phones and transportation
services.
The permanent statutory debt
limit now is $285 billion. A 1895
billion temporary limit wa:
voted by Congress last year, tc
expire June 30. Mr.. Anderson
told the committee that the
debt total on that date will be
almost $285 billion and prob
ably will exceed that figure at
times during the next fiscal
year because Of seasonal fac
tors. He said a $293 billion tenn
porary limit until July /, 1861,
would meet any emergency
situation.
Budget Director Maurice H.
STAINS and Mr.. Anderson de-
voted much of their comments
to the prospect of a $4.2 billion
budget surplus for the 1861
fiscal year.
Mr.. Stans reminded the
committee that the $4.2 billion
