WASHINGTON -- A United

He said the pilots had only

N.Y. -- News of Dag Hammar-

Also disconcerting to market

The lowest reading of this aver-
age was 708.6d at 2 p.m. but the

PASSES HOUSE:
Submit Education Bill
For Kennedy Approval

WASHINGTON ()-The House
yesterday sent to President John
F. Kennedy the remains of his
ambitious school aid program,
thoroughly shredded in months of
congressional pulling and hauling.
The 342-18 vote was anticlimac-
tic. It merely confirmed House
passage of the two-part $900-mil-
lion bill two weeks ago. The Sen-

Some key backers of the ad-
ministration program have con-
ceded that the possibility of a
wider school aid program is dead
for at least two years, and possibly
until after the next presidential
election.
Both programs that were ap-
proved had wide support among
conservatives. They had been
wrapped into the Kennedy school
program in an effort to win votes
for the more- controversial sec-
tions, such as $2.5 billion in fed-
eral- grants for public school con-
struction and teachers' salaries.
The fact that the extensions are
for two years rather than one
means they are lost to the ad-
ministration as levers for use in
seeking a wider school program
next year.

Magistrates Move To Curb
'Ban-The-Bomb' Campaign

LONDON ( -- Magistrates
worked in relays yesterday to nip
a civil disobedience campaign by
Britain's Ban-The-Bomb nuclear

Ten London courts and one in
Scotland operated at a brisk clip,

sentences-on hundreds of the
