Maryland Seeking a Voice
In Area Transit Planning
Change Urged

Full EquoIity
BY WILLIAM DUKE
Star staff Writer

The structure Of the National
Capital Transportation Agency
should be changed to give
Maryland and Virginia equal
voice with the Federal Govern
ment in drafting rapid transit
plans for the Washington area.
suburban Maryland planners
said yesterday.

transit plans, voted unani-
mously to petition legis-
lature TO work for the law
changes.
The action came after the

Help for Parents
Many questions we're focused
on how the parents could be

More realistic programs pro-

Adult Education Department.
More help with reaching the
unreached parents.
More compulsory help pro-
vided by welfare.
"All mothers on Public As

the director Of Mount
Vernon.
That's quite possible, for
there Is no mention OF a
Jefferson visit In Washing
tons diaries.
But there are lapses in
the diaries.
"Jefferson's papers con-
tain an account Of his visit
on October l, 1872.
Come on over to the IL
braries and III show you"
We were on the porch of
the mansion and the view
was never better. The river
reflected yesterdays blue
skies. The warm sunshine
was gliding the Maryland
shore.
A large aerial photo sur
vey Of the river as 1t runs by
Mount Vernon was mounted
on the porch so that visitors
could overlook both.
There's Mockley Point
where they want to put the

said, pointing to 1t on the
photograph and then across
the river.
Can you imagine anyone
wanting to spoil a view like
that?"
It was a little difficult.
Now that the steam dredge
in the ship channel has
moved upriver, there isn't
an anachronism In sight.

The board was to consider

VISTAS IN SCIENCE
Bots Can Hear Fish
In SEQ, Science Finds

by Drs. 8. r. Caller and H. w.
Hayes Of the Naval Research
Biology Branch. This species
Is able to locate fish under
water by o similar system.
The animal Noctilio Lepo-
rinus. apparently sends out
ultrasonic pulses inaudible to
man or other animals, which
are echoed by the bodies Of the
fish.
The actual catch is made
when the bat, flying low over
the water, dips in his feet,
spearing with his claws those
fish which are swimming or
resting Just below the surface.
BY use Of an ultrasonic de-
tector anda small tape-recorder
to obtain data on the ultra
sonic pulse emission rate, the
biologists have found that the
echo locator may penetrate the
air-water interface.

YugoSlav President Tito's
one-day visit to Washington
next month signifies another
political step forward by the
Communist worlds most un-
usual leader.
Officials here emphasized to-
day that Mr.. Tito's informal
White House meeting with
President Kennedy on October
II was arranged at the request
of Mr.. Tito, who wanted to
meet the President while In
this country for the q. N. Cen
eral Assembly meeting.
Yet the decision to invite Mr..
Tito into the White House
grounds Is an unmistakable
sign that the Yugoslav leaders
special non-aligned brand Of
communism Is tolerable to the
administration.
It was acceptable also to
Presidents Truman and Eisen-
hover, following Mr.. Tito's
break with Stain in 1913, but
it took Is years for him to be
treated as q welcome guest in
the Nations Capital.
EisenhOwer Tried
Mr.. Eisenhower tried on at
least two occasions to honor
Mr.. Tito, but public opinion
was so strong against any Com
munist leader that Mr.. Eisen-
hover was only able to meet
Mr.. Tito for 80 minutes in q
New York hotel in 1860.
What now makes 1t possible
for Mr.. Kennedy to invite Mr..
Tito to the White House with
out widespread opposition Is
Yugoslavia's important role in
the world scene.
Nowhere has this influence
been greater than in Eastern
Europe, where Yugoslavia has
shown the way to nationalist
roads to communism.
Under Mr.. Tito's leadership,
Yugoslavia has followed its
own path, borrowing from the
West, trading with the West,
and promising to live with the
West instead Of burying 1t.
Yugoslavs have never yielded
to Russian attempts to win
them back to the camp, and in
fact, only last month, Soviet
Premier Khrushchev virtually
gave his blessing on Titoism
as q legitimate form Of COM
muniSm.
He did this, most likely, be-
cause he desperately wants
Yugoslav support In the non-
aligned world, Of which Yugo-
slavia Is a part. and In Eastern

- INTERPRETATION
Tito S Communism
ToIerobIe to Kennedy

Europe, where YugoSlavia exertS
a powerful influence.
Both Mr.. Khrusl1chev and
Mr.. Tito argue in favor Of
peaceful coexistence," but the
YugoSlav Interpretation is more
acceptable to the West than
Mr.. Khrushchev's, which often
seems q screen for subversive
warfare.
Mr.. Khrushchev's acknowl-
edgment that Titoism Is here
to stay increased Mr.. Tito's
prestige enormously. He has
just entertained Hungarian
Communist Leader Janos Ka-
dar, and leaves shortly for q
trip to Latin America. He plans
to visit Bolivia. Chile, Brazil
and Mexico before flying to
New York.
Mr.. Tito is due to arrive here
about the same time Congress
is expected to reach q decision
on the administrations request
that Congress rescind q law
passed last session prohibiting
the granting of ''most-favored-
nation" treatment to Commu-
mist countries.
Tariff Concessions Given
MIN, as 1t is called, gives to
a country tariff concessions
granted others. It thus allows
q country to compete on even
terms for markets in this coun-
try. YugoSlavia and Poland are
the only Communist countries
given MIN treatment in the
past. The Yugoslavs, in par
ticular, would stand to lose
considerably If Congress fails
to repeal last years law.
The administration believes
that MIN is q symbol of
United States intentions toward
the Communist world. It says
that restoration Of MIN will
indicate that the nation wants
to remain flexible in its policies
and take advantage Of oppor-
tunities that may arise in
Communist countries. If Con-
gress turns down its request,
the administration says 1t will
mean q refusal to try and bring
the East closer to the West.
