SNOWY LANDSCAPE IPil Air Force Ready For Test On Heavy Interceptor Plane Washington, Jan. 14 (U.R) The air force is ready to test a new fighter that is heavier than a 21-passenger DC-3 airliner but can climb above 45,000 feet from a standing start in less than three minutes. It is believed the craft can fly 800 miles per hour. The plane designated the XF 91, is the first American aircraft designed purely as an intercep tor. The air force plans to use it for "local defense against high speed, high altitude enemy air craft." Spectacular Results Republic Aviation Corp.. builder of the XF-91, said the plane had achieved "spectacular results," in about 40 test flights at Edwards air force base, Muroc, Calif. The craft has been turned over to the air force for per formance tests. If successful, the tests presumably will be follow ed by production orders. The XF-91 is a combination jet and rocket propelled ship with an extremely high rate of climb a prime requirement for an interceptor. Its wing which can be tilted in flights is adjusted to a flat angle for high speed flight. For landing and take-off, the leading edge is tilted upward at a high angle. The wing also is wider at the tip than at the fuselage intersec tion. This reduces stalls at the wingtips. The manufacturer said it also enables the XF-91 to fly slower than any other jet fighter, Russia Re-Installs Death For Treason London, Jan. 14 (U.R) Radio Moscow said today that the So viet had re-installed the death penalty for treason.

The Russian announcement said merely that the move had been made "in view of receipt of statements from national repub lics, trade unions and peasant organizations as well as from cultural leaders."
