Redstone Missile Foreshadows 1500 Mile IRBM
The Redstone missile, displayed at Redstone Arsenal Alabama, is a bulky, high speed rocket with an estimated 200 to 300 mile official range. Army officials call it very accurate and view it as a progenitor of the inter mediate range ballistic missile to be developed with the Navy, aiming for a 1,500 mile capability with a more powerful motor. Maj. Gen. Medaris notes the challenge lies in guidance precision at long ranges as tests continue at Florida proving grounds and a 500,000 pound thrust engine test tower nears completion.

Road Tax Reform Sparks Fairness Debate Before Congress
Ohio Public Utilities Commission Chair Robert L. Moulton testified to the House Ways and Means Committee that a proposed highway financing plan would be unfair to motorists. He cited studies showing trucks bear a larger highway maintenance burden and urged graduated vehicle weight taxes, citing Ohio’s system as effective. The bill would raise gasoline and diesel taxes by one cent, increase heavy-vehicle taxes, and tax retread rubber to fund a 4000 mile highway network. Moulton noted cars would pay more under the plan than heavy trucks.
