Road Money Plan Mapped By Congress WASHINGTON (UPII - Con gress studied a compromise plan today which would solve the mon ey shortage for the interstate su perhughway network. But it would slow down road construction dras tically. The plan calls for the issuance of one billion dollars in short term revenue bonds lo avoid an impending deficit. To eliminate long . range financing problems work on tne 41,000-nnle system would be curtailed sharply and the program would be stretched out. The tax-writing House Ways & Means Committee approved the scheme 15 to 10 Wednesday. The Eisenhower administration strongly opposes the bond plan The President appealed for a hike in the federal gasoline tax, from the current 3 cents to 4 cents a gallon, to keep superhighway construction going.

This means that the party, un less today's ruling is reversed, must register with the attorney general as an agency of a foreign power and must file reports of its finances and the names of its members. , The court decision marks anoth er step in a nine-year battle by the government to require the Communist party to register un der the 1950 Internal Security Act.

Shot At Mars May Be Due By JOSEPH L. MYLER WASHINGTON (UPI) - A deep space probe planned for Novem ber may foreshadow a rocket shot toward Mars next year. Scientists believe they could track a probe as far as Mars with radio transmitting and receiving gear now or soon to be available. How close they could come to Mars with existing rocket and guidance equipment is another matter. A miss of many thou sands of miles appears unavoida ble. Still, a shot in the general di rection of the red planet, when it reaches a favorable position for such an attempt on Oct. 1, 1960, would provide a good test of long distance communications over planetary routes. The National Aeronautics and Space' Administration (NASA.) would not comment on sugges tions that a Mars shot may be on the agenda for next year. The agency had hoped to launch a probe toward a nearer neigh bor, Venus, when that bright planet was in a favorable position last month. But technical difficul ties prevented, and Venus won't be a suitable target again until Jan. 13, 1961. . Meanwhile, NASA is going ahead with plans to test the feasi bility of using solar power to run radio transmitters and instru ments aboard probes designed to venture millions of miles into space.

Rain Lack Cause Probed HORNBROOK Some persons in the Hornbrook area maintain that planes flying in from the direc tion of Copco Dam to cloud for mations in Hilt and Hornbrook ter ritory are seeding the clouds and causing rain before the clouds can reach . the near-drouth regions. Federal Aeronautics Administra tion officials at the Montague and Medford airports discount the claims. Medford officials state the only seeding in recent years has been from the ground and much later in the season. Pear growers have attempted ' to break up clouds before Ihey become large enough to cause hail and damage ripening pears.
