State Police Planes -”»••-■■ , ‘ . Patrolling Highways Sky Troopers Aid State Police Cars INDIANAPOLIS (UP) — Stats police announced today that stretches of Indiana highways have been turned into measured courses to cate!) traffic violators by means of patrol plafies. This latest step in an effort to reduce Hoosier highway smashups was devised by But>L Frank A. Jessup. He said it will be used throughout the state to spot irresponsible drivers iind get them off tlie' road. The "sky troopers” do their patrolling at an altitude of about 800 or HOO feet, and their system works like this: .-' . • Spotters in state police planes team with troopers in prowl cars at high accident treqtj en c y stretches of highway. At these points, the pavement has been converted into a gigantic yardstick” by whitb lines painted every oneetglith of a mile. Once a potential violator has been spotted, he is clocked by stop-, watch from the air as he hits the ■measuring tone. If a speeding infraction is served. the description of the ear Is flashed by radio from the plane to the patrol cir. The rest is easy. Jessup said purpose of the drive is to stop excessive speeds. H!s “sky troopers" also .will keep a watchfijj eye In . other hazardous moving violations, such as following too closely, passing on hili§ and curves, failure to observe stop signs and weaving in traffic, “Speed'’combined with one or moire of these violations cause most colllsiona,” be said. “There’s no. ptf today’s congested roads for'th J’ intentional violator ■or careless filter. UP ’’ every available enforcement tool to get them off.” Speeds up to 93 miles an hour

Foreign Aid Bill Passed By Congress House Expected To Cut Appropriation For Foreign Aid WASHINGTON (UP) — Congress has sent President Eisenhower a $4 billion foreign aid bill-S9OO million less than he originally wanted. But that bill merely daps a lid on how much can be appropriated for foreign aiu during fiscal 1957. The house expected to complete action Wednesday on a companion foreign aid appropriations bill that would give the administration the cash, but only $3.4 billion. Congress approved the $4 billioo authorisation bill Monday without debate. It brushed aside a presidential warning that serious overseas consequences would result from deep cuts. Republican leaders appeared to feel the house will push through the even lower appropriations bill. They looked to the* senate for help. Other congressional news: Republicans: The President summoned GOP congressional leaders to his Gettysburg. Pa., farm. He called- the meeting to discuss the status of his legislative program as congress works towards adjourniueu.l lira matter of weeks-. Narcotics: Congress approved and sent to the President a tough narcotics bill. It would provide much stiffer penalties including the death sentence in some cases for narcotics,Jaw violators. Housing: Republicans maneuvered to get a “bare bones” housing bill before congress. It would continue home repair and military housing programs. Democrats who advocate including increased pub-

lic bdusla* fought back. Social Security: Senate tMmocrate pushed a two-part compromise amendment to the social ieicurfty bill approved by the senate fitugoce committee. One part would permit'- totally disabled workers to start collecting benefits at 50. The other would permit working women and wives of retired workers to start collecting benefits at 62. Defense: Congress approved a $2.1 billion military construction bill. It wae sent to the President. The bill authorizes military construction projects during fiscal 1957.
