However, a requirement that the advance to the highway trust fund be repaid by next June 30 was knocked out of a catch-all money bill on a point of order raised by Sen, Albert Gore (D.- Tenn.). Gore was upheld in his conten tion that the repayment proviso involved legislation in an appro priation bill and therefore was out of order. The Eisenhower administration urged the advance to tide over the highway trust fund until its income is increased by the one cent boost in the federal gasoline tax recently voted by Congress. The House still has to act on the advance. Sen. Spessard L. Holland (D- Fla.) agreed with the validity of Gore’s point of order, but he said that under the basic Highway Act the advance will have to be re paid when the secretary of the Treasury determines sufficient money is on hand in the highway trust fund. Steel Dispute Has 645,000 Workless WASHINGTON (JP) Payroll losses due to the steel strike were reported by the government yes terday to have mounted to $550 million. In his third semi-monthly sur vey of the effects of the strike which began July 15, Secretary of Labor James P. Mitchell placed the number of workers idled by the dispute at 645,000 and said: “The latest report for the last half of August pointed to heavy employment losses if the strike continues into next month, espe cially in metal-using industries and in trade and service activi ties." Mitchell, who has been acting as President Eisenhower’s fact finder in the steel situation, made no mention in his report of union management negotiations now un der way in New York, nor did he make any attempt to forecast settlement prospects. To Enhance K! Missil By John M. WASHINGTON (/P)—Soviet Premier Nikita Khrushchev presumably ordered the timing of the Soviet Union’s latest moon shot. His idea would be to dramatize Soviet scientific progress imme diately before he arrives in the United States Tuesday. It is widely believed in Wash ington that Khrushchev is plan ning to .tour this country as a voluble salesman for Soviet poli cies and propaganda peaceful coexistence, for example. The successful launching of-the moon rocket gives him a sensa tional advertisement in the sky. If the shoot is; successful in reaching the 'moon or its area, Soviet scientists ere certain to 13. 1959 :e Passes in Aid Bill (l P) —The Senate patched together a ;n aid bill last night and headed into ad lg the civil rights battle. ;n. Carl Hayden (D.-Ariz.) to suspend the :r would be attached to the bill extending the life of the Civil Rights Com mission for two years was marked as the prelude to a storm of cri ticism of the commission from Southern Democrats. ion The House had met briefly in the wane hope that this might be getaway day of a session which has lasted more than. - eight months. It sent to the White House a compromise bill permit ting an increase in interest rates on government savings bonds. Speaker Sam Rayburn (D- Tex.) got House passage of a resolution to adjourn tomor row. But Senate . Democratic Leader Lyndon B. Johnson of Texas was not at all sure the Senate could dispose of the civ il rights matter by then. Since neither house can adjourn for the session' without the con sent of the other, there was no certainty that the quitting date would come tomorrow—the day before the scheduled arrival of So viet Premier Nikita Khrushchev. For the Senate, there was the ever-present threat that Sen. Wayne Morse (D.-Ore.) would en g ays : ) —The Sen ived a $359- :Dm general : finance the system and ghway pro- viously said were designed to keep the lawmakers at work until Khrushchev arrives.

Southerners pitched their battle against the Civil Rights Commis sion on a proposal to extend the commission’s life for two more years. Approval of two-thirds of those voting was required to at tach the extension to the foreign aid and money bill. It is against the rules to write new law in an I appropriations bill. irushchev's Visit Shoot Seen Soviet Premier's Move [ighlower draw congratulations from all over the world. Even if it misses the target, Khrushchev will have demonstrated once more Soviet achievement in the one great field in which the Soviet Union has been clearly* ahead of the United States, in the race for over-all military and scien tific superiority. Sen. Henry M. Jackson ID- Wash.) put it this way to a re porter: “If the moon shot achieves its announced objective, it will be Soviet timing at its best with Khrushchev arriving here and the rocket on or around the moon. I am sure Khrushchev will make the most of such a spectacular achievement in launching his grand tour of America." What immediately struck Washington scientists about the moon shot announced in Mos THE DAILY COLLEGIAN. STATE COLLEGE.

Sisouk Na Champasak, acting Laotian foreign minister, replied to reports that Communist North Vietnamese troops allegedly fight ing in Laos began withdrawing behond their own border as soon as they learned the U.N. observ ers were coming. Their Pathet Lao rebel comrades became less active on learning the news .Si souk said. But pilots flying airdrop mis-! sions to royal troops in northern Laos: said emergency drops of ammunition indicated small-scale fighting was still in progress. They also said the rebel-held ter ritory generally remained the same as last week. Sisouk also announced that government forces had captured more North Vietnamese equip ment in a small battle in north ern Phong Saly Province four days ago. He said this was fur ther proof of North Vietnamese intervention in the war. Sisouk said a captured Chinese made rifle and military pack had been identified as equipment used by the North Viet Nam army . Rockefeller Hints Entry In N.H. Primary ALBANY, N.Y.

Thus the Soviets took a cal culated. but not unexpected risk in a launching at this lime. That strengthened the impres sion that Khrushchev himself was behind the timing. It was no surprise for two rea sons. In the first place, administra tion leaders at the White House and State Department had antici pated that Khrushchev might pull off one or more grandstand plays to draw worldwide attention to his trip. Particularly, it was felt he might make such a play in the space race. Secondly, a top-flight Soviet scientist said Sept. 1 * that the world ought to be on the lookout for a spectacular development at any moment. The Prof. Nehru's Opposition Demands Retaliation NEW DELHI, India (/P) —Opposition members of Parlia ment accused Prime Minister Nehru yesterday of appease ment and demanded he use force to dislodge Chinese Com munist troops from Indian territory. Nehru countered with a charge that the opposition was resorting to brave gestures and rejected out of hand the proposal to use force. After five hburs of angry de bate in which members of non- Communist opposition parlies al most unanimously assailed the manner Nehru used to handle the border disputes, some Parliament members walked out in disgust. | None of the members seemed happy with the situation, al though the House approved the government's policy by a voice vote. Parliament then adjourned until Nov. 17. The angry exchanges look place as Soviet Premier Nikila Khrushchev was attempting to gel Red China and India to set tle their border dispute, which threatens to dampen his forth coming visit to the United Stales. Nehru also turned down pro posals that New Delhi withdraw! earlier offers to mediate minor troubles along the India-Tibetan frontier. He declared he would give up sections of the Mac- Mahon line which divides north east India from Tibet “if I find it wrongly there.” He termed the MacMahon line vague in some places and said it was only right that negotiation should be offered in such places. Nevertheless, he made it clear he is not willing to surrender to Red China’s claims to large sections of land along India's border with Tibet.

It is difficult to forecast at present whether it will touch the surface of the moon, become a satellite of ihe moon, or become a new planet." In Britain, scientists at Jodrell Bank—home of the world’s most powerful radio telescope said the lunar rocket was beeping out signals right along after mid night .They said it was more than 100,000 miles from the earth. Discussing the rocket power, Bogoyavlensky said: ‘'There is every reason to suppose that such outstanding results have been : achieved owing to the successes of Soviet science in developing Inew rocket fuels. Apparently the lUnited States still has no such i'fuel since it has not attempted to launch a rocket this year after four failures between August and December, 1958.” ! The giant Soviet rocket blasied i off Saturday, carrying the Soviet jbanner and a mass of intricate iequipment.
