The conflicting views were 1 placed on record Thursday in the first public hearing on the 13-year- ; old nuclear flight program that has cost nearly one billion doli lars. AEC Chairman John A. McCone told the joint congressional subcommittee on atomic research that the “greatest stimulus” to 1 the A-plane program would come from the adoption of a definite flight test plan. McCone said nuclear flight always will be five years away un- ■ less such a plan is adopted. Rep. Melvin Price (D-IU.), I chairman of the subcommittee, revealed that the AEC’s general advisory committee of scientists adopted a similar policy 30 days ago. Deputy Defense Secretary Thomas Gates and Dr. Herbert , York, Pentagon director of re- ! search, said that the defense de- , partment is not ready to proceed with construction of an atomic , plane. ’ To do so, xorK saw, would detract from efforts to develop better nuclear aircraft engines. Under questioning, York said he thought the policy adopted would result in “a better plane at about the same time" —apparently in 1964. Mitchell Collects ! Steel Strike Data WASHINGTON (UPD — Labor Secretary James P. Mitchell and top aides worked today on the “most exhaustive” fact - finding study ever made in a U.S. labor dispute, a collection of data on the steel strike. Mitchell said he is making good i progress in gathering information for President Eisenhower. Labor Department officials reported that some preliminary data already 1 had been submitted to the White House* * Mitchell said in a statement Thursday that his study would be ! the most exhaustive of its kind ever made and that he has mobilized all of the government’s fact-finding agencies, to Help him. He said the inquiry is “well underway.” Top Labor Department experts have been assigned full time to gather and analyze data on steel industry wages, prices, productivity, work practices and unemployment. “I intend to use as necessary all the vast fact-finding facilities of the federal government to collect and analyze all available data on past and. present stee disputes,” Mitchell sid.

Bob Hope In London Show For Charity LONDON (UPD — Comedian Bob Hope today sleepily signed a blank check which an autograph hound slipped through the window of his car. “The guy offered the check for signature with a remark that he wanted to have some fun with his friends,” Hope said. “I hope he doesn’t have too much fun with me or my bank.” Hope, drowsy from lack of sleep after appearing in a postmidnight “night of 100 stars" Charity show, complained, “I'm i half asleep this morning.” “Fortunately I didn’t use my bank signature,” he said. “They won’t let that check through — I hope.” Hope was flying to Brussels for a round of golf with King Baudouin of the Belgians. “They tell me he’s pretty good,” he said. “I’ll have to stay awake to see this.” Hope abandoned charity shows and many other extra activities last winter after incurring a blood clot in one eye and dizzy spells from overwork. But he was on stage att he Palladium until 2 a. m. London time today as the top star of a hun-dred-memker cast performing for the Actors’ Orphanage, a stage charity that supports 35 orphans. Audrey Hepburn .also defied doctors’ orders to appear. She is convalescing after losing a baby two weeks ago and was told not to travel from Switzerland until August. “I just skidded in under the deadline,” she said. Hope made an elaborate show of taking it easy during his act. He was stretched out full length on a pink chaise lounge singing a song called “lazy” and remarking to the audience he was “toe pooped to pucker.” “My doctor says it’s O. K. tc chase girls if I forget what I’m chasing them for,” he said. “Imagine admiring Jayne Mansfield for her acting,” Bob added. Finalists Are Named For Miss Universe LONG BEACH, Cqjif. (UPD - Fifteen beauties—all dubbed “toe skinny” by a peeved Italian loser —square off tonight for the title of Miss Universe. “Back home, the men would wait for these girls to gain some more weight,” pouted busty <3B- - Maria Grazia Buccella a voluptuous Italian blonde with a Marilyn Monroe wiggle walk.

Local Taxation Os Top Importance BLOOMINGTON, Ind. (UPD— Governor Handley said today the problem of local taxation ‘’should be the foremost item on the agenda” of the 1961 Legislature. Handley, writing ini the current issue of the Indiana Business Review, said the next General Assembly will be called on to enact legislation that will permit cdunties, where they themselves ' choose, to establish taxes that will alleviate but not eliminate the local propertv tax. “It should be understood that we are not proposing action in 1961 that would result in higher taxes,” Handley said in the publication put out by the Indiana University Bureau of Business Research. “When local property taxes are readjusted, then Indiana can proclaim that Iwe have the finest, most equitable, and most adequate tax system anywhere in the world.” Handley said the state has “absorbed” the revenue loss caused by repeal of the state property tax by establishing employer withholding of state gross income taxes. “If local communities are now permitted to vote similar safeguards for local tax collections, tax equity will have been thoroughly established,” he said. The governor previously made known his sentiments on the problem when he asked the Indiana Tax Study Commission to survey the situation. In the same article, Handley pointed out that Indiana has led the nation in per capita plant expansion for the past six years. “The latest data show the gain in personal per capita income to be greater in Indiana. April, 1958, to April, 1959, than in any other state,” he said. Two Americans Are Released In Cuba HAVANA (UPD — Donald Soldini, 20, of Staten Island, N. Y., and Davis Bales, 25, of Hackensack, N.

Reach Agreement To End Utility Strike - INDIANAPOLIS (UPD—An end to a 23-day strike of electrical workers against the Public Service Company of Indiana. Inc., was up to about 1.400 union members today following an agreement reached by negotiators Thursday. The International Brotherhood of Electrical Workers, Local 1393, was expected to conduct a vote today on whether to ratify the agreement, reached in a meeting of union and company officials, Arthur H. Pierson of the Federal Mediation Service, and L. Derrell Weaver, Indiana state labor commissioner. Company spokesmen said the agreement included a five per cent wage increase for two years beginning next May 1 and a reduction from 15 to 12 years in the employment tenure qualifying the worker for a three-week vacation. Although the old contract expired last May 1, no change in wages or working conditions was made in the new contract to be effective before next May 1. The proposed new contract was twice as long as one negotiated tentatively on May 13. At that time, company and union approved a one-year compact calling for a four per cent wage increase for one year only. The strike began July 1. Since then, supervisory personnel maintained service to 370,000 customers in more than 700 Hoosier communities served by the state’s largest electrical utility.
