New Illinois Speed Limit Law Signed Flat Speed Measure Effective July 1 “sPRINGFIELdTiH William G. Stratton today signed into law his speed limit bill," which will become effective July 1. The bill limits automobiles to a flat 65 miles an hour day or night on state highways. Buses are limited to 60 miles an hour day or night, trucks under four tons to 55 miles and trucks over four tons to 50 miles. The bill also gives the Highway Division and the Toll Road Commission authority to set limits up to TO miles an hour on expressways and turnpikes. Stratton said the bill was "a milestone in our drive for highway safety in Illinois” and predicted a "decided drop in the number of deaths and serious accidents due to speed.” The bill was the key measure in Stratton’s highway safety program. Other bills still in the Legislature call for a 500 man increase in the state police force, and an increase from $1 to $3 in the drivers license fee with the additional money to go to high school driver training programs. The new speed law will replace the present law which requires only that drivers proceed at "reasonable and proper" speeds. Stratton gave the pens with which he signed the bill to Sen., Alfred J. Hart (R-Streator) and Rep. David Hunter (R-Rockford) who sponsored the bin. Trade in a good — uecatur

Senate Meets To Rush Work On Fund Bills Senate Called Into Earlier To i Work On Measures WASHINGTON (UP)—The Sen- ’ ate prepared today to tackle an- ' other set of money bills carrying 1 almost a billion dollars less than the administration had requested 1 to turn a number of government agencies. Senate Democratic Leader Lyndon B. Johnson, notifying sena- j tors they must “start early and , work late” to act on major bills, ] ordered the Senate to convene at 9:30 a.m. this week. His program called for passage , of four appropriations bills today • and Wednesday, followed by the ’ foreign aid authorization bill which must be enacted before the House and Senate can appropriate the I cash for foreign aid. Funds For Agencies The four appropriations bills carry, funds for the Agriculture Department and related activities, independent government agencies, the Labor Department and the Healht. Education and Welfare Department and the District of Columbia. Johnson told the Senate Monday other major appropriations bills, ■ except that for foreign aid, should be enacted by June 30. As approved by the Senate Appropriations Committee, the four bills carry more than 12 billion dollars, a reduction of about $95.200,000 from administration requests, but an increase of about 13 millions over the amount voted by the House. Reduced By Senate The Senate version of the Agriculture bill would provide $3,692.889,757, a reduction of $24,157,600 from the House figure. However, the appropriations committee recommended reversing the House provision which would kill off the acreage reserve section of the soil bank program on 1958 crops. Largest of the four measures was the independent offices bill carrying $5,378,224,800 —a reduction of $6,976,000 from the Houseapproved figure. In making that net reduction, however , the Senate committee approved a $14,250,000 greater reduction than the House cut of $149,500,000 for veterans’ compensation and pensions. These were paper reductions, however, which save the Treasury nothing because the payments are fixed by law. . Moslems Attacked By French Rioters Stage Reprisal For Rebel Bomb Attacks ALGIERS (UP>—French rioters stormed through Algiers today and beat up Moslems in reprisals for recent rebel bomb attacks. The rioters stoned both European and Moslem shops whose owners refused to heed a general strike call for today by the French war veterans and students associations. The young Frenchmen shouted “let the army take over” as they surged through the winding streets, seeking out frightened Moslems in the second day of anti-. Moslem rioting. Frenc hauthorities had moved in extra paratroopers to help protect the 250,000 Arab residents of Algiers, but they were unable to halt the angry mobs immediately. The French were angered at recent bomb outrages, which have taken 19 lives in Algeria alone in the past 10 days, and .inflamed by such massacres as the slaying of 303 pro-French Moslems at Melouza.
Showers And Warm Weather Hit State Up To Two Inches Os Rain Reported By UNITED PRESS Showers and thunderstorms and warm humid weather swept across Indiana today for possibly a weeklong stay. Rainfall up to nearly two inches was recorded sporadically over Hoosierland by early morning. Noblesville had 1.85 inches. Lafayette’s precipitation measured .87 of an inch. Bluffton .75, Danville .65, Monticello .48, Kokomo .49, Indianapolis .30, South Bend .15 and Fort Wayne .03. The showery activity and humidity with temperatures in the 80s were due to continue today, Wednesday and Thursday. Temperatures hit highs ranging from 81 at Evansville to 84 at South Bend Monday and dropped to a range of 67 at Indianapolis to 71 at Evansville during v the night. Tops today will range from near 80 north to 86 south, lows tonight from 65 to 70, and highs Wednesday from the mid to upper 80s. Seeks Recovery Os Gross Income Taxes INDIANAPOLIS (W — T h e Allis-Chalmers Manufacturing Co., LaPdrte, filed Monday in an Indi- t anapolis court a suit to recover $448,333 in state gross income taxes paid between 1951 and 1954. The suit in Marion Superior Court 5 charged the company paid the taxes on products manufactured at LaPorte for sale to the armed services. It said the sales were in interstate commerce and the state had no light to tax them. The case was similar to one of the Bendix, Corp, of South Bekd, a long-pending litigation climaxed only a week ago by an Indiana Supreme Court ruling that the state did have a right to tax such sales. 1

Favors Radio And TV Trade With Russians Dulles States U. S. Now Pressing Plan On Soviet Russia WASHINGTON (UP) — Secreta of State John Foster Dulles Said today the United States favors a 30-minute monthly radio-TV program mi a reciprocal basis with Russia to inform people in each country about East-West problems. Dulles told a news conference that the United States is pressing this plan on the Soviet Union. He said the idea was first proposed to the Soviet Union by the United States, Britain and France at the Geneva foreign ministers conference in 1955. Dulles said he has doubts as to value of a one-shot appearance such as that of Soviet Communist Party boss Nikita Khrushchev on a recent American radio television network program (CBS). We should have an opportunity on a regular reciprocal basis to speak to each other’s peoples, Dulles said. He recalled that the Big Three proposals in 1955 envisaged a

monthly 30 • minute program— WHICH Russia opposed then, and presumably does now. Dulles said leading Americans could participate in such a monthly broadcast or telecast to the Soviet Union. He said he would be delighted, for example, if the Russians wanted to carry a filmed version of one of his weekly news conferences. Or he said he would welcome a special news conference geared to Soviet-American relations. At his news conference, Dulles also: —Disclosed that the new American disarmament proposals are being delayed while the Europeans decide whether a European “openskies” zone should be included in a first-stage disarmament agreement. Some Europeans also feel, he said, that it may be desirable to explore the possibility of political settlements, such as German reunification, before a disarmament move is made. —Said the United States is willing to make solid proposals oh the Arctic area as a starter toward disarmament — if other nations agree. But he said the United States attaches first importance to its Allies’ views and will not move on disarmament just in order to make speed with the Soviet Union. —Objected to a proposal by Sen. William F. Knowland that the United States consider the plan to "neutralize” Norway if Soviet troops are withdrawn from Hungary. Dulles said he fully shares Knowland’s feeling that every
proper effort should be made to get Soviet proposals on withdrawing troops. But Dulles said he doubts if it is appropriate to suggest that a nation (Norway) which wants security should be asked to give it up. —Said Red China, which has limited foreign buying power, will concentrate on buying goods of a higher strategic value now that Britain has eased its China trade !■■■ —

embargo. There is still room for negotiation with the British on the size of trade quotas which will be open to British-Red Chinese trade. But Dulles believes, in gefferal, that U.S. views on trade with- Red China should be considered by U.S. Allies because of the primary role this government plays in the Far East.
