The bill was drawn up by state Highway Commissioner Dwight R. G.

Palmer; his transportation director, Herbert A. Thomas and a group of consultants during closed meetings in the past few-weeks. Meyner has been touring Russia and is due back tomorrow. The bill, it was learned, would provide: 1. A referendum question on the Nov.

3 ballot asking the state's voters to agree pledge New Jersey's credit behind the 430 million dollars in turnpike bonds now outstanding. 2. A procedure for getting holders of two-thirds of the turnpike bonds to agree to give up their claim on surplus turnpike revenue in exchange for the state guarantee of the bonds. 3. Creation of a state transportation fund to be made up of the freed turnpike surpluses, which have been estimated at 30 million dollars now and 630 to 640 million dollars more by 1988.

Authorization on Spending 4. Authorization for the fund to be spent on transportation purposes only, citing such items as railroad tax relief, elimination of grade crossings, railroad terminals and links, bus and rail equipment, construction of highways and parking lots, and payment of possible deficits of the Garden State Parkway. 5. The spending could only be done through annual appropriation bills, giving the Legislature the power to control the program. 6.

The two leaders did not meet face to face; that was to corr.e later. But while Nixon was getting an official welcome at the airport, Khrushchev was talking to a sports palace crowd welcoming him home from a nine-day trip to Poland.

He again took the United States to task for proclaiming this week as Captive Nations Week, and said: They send their governors here (referring to the recent visit of nine I'. S. governors). They send their vice president here. They are opening an exhibit here and then thev do a thing like this." Nixon's jet plane brought him to Moscow in 10 hours 54 minutes.

He was met by Frol R. Kozlov, first deputy premier who recently toured the United States. The Nixon trip is in effect an exchange visit. The vice president a official purpose is to open the jU. S.

He said: "There are grave and serious problems which divide us differences which if not resolved could endanger the peace to which we are all dedicated."

"Weldon and other officials today. Weldon told newsmen he had no developments to report. "We are going over all the ground again," said the girl's father, Ralph A. Hart. "We are trying everything.

But there is not a thing in the world new. I wish there was. I wish to God there was." Fear that the blue-eyed beauty may have met with foul play was expressed, meantime, by another official and a spokesman for the family. Lieut. Joseph Lawless of the Port of New York Authority police said foul play is a definite possibility.

The girl was last seen Tuesday night at Newark Airport which is operated by the authority. She had driven her fiance, Stanley Gaines, 25, to the airport. She vanished after he took off for Pittsburgh. Pa. "The parents are afraid she may have suffered foul play," said the Rev.

Herbert H. Cooper, rector of Christ Episcopal Church. Interested in Dramatics The girl's father, executive vice president of the Colgate Pal-molive Company, told Weldon at a Newark meeting that Jacqueline had been interested in dramatics and once appeared in a Columbia Broadcasting System play. He added that she had apparently lost interest in acting and was concentrating on her planned Aug. 29 wedding.

Weldon, however, sent detectives to check New York studios to see if she had made any applications for acting jobs. Thirty-five Port Authority officers and a Coast Guard plane resumed a search of the marshes near Newark Airport today. Other developments: 1. Linden police were investigating a service station attendant's report that he saw a blonde bundled up in the rear of a car which stopped for gas last night. 2 Youths Quizzed 2.

Short Hills police questioned two youths picked up for speeding near the Hart's fashionable home in this Newark suburb. Police said they had no connection with the case. 3. Hart told Weldon he was considering going on television to appeal for the girl's return. 4.

The search spread to Canada. Jacqueline's married sister, Mrs. Robert Warmer, lives in Winnipeg. Jacqueline, a Sweet Briar College graduate who made her society debut in 1955, failed to return home after driving Gaines to Newark Airport. Gaines, of Fayetteville, W.

is reputed to be the heir to one of West Virginia's largest coal fortunes. His father, the late L. Ebersole Gaines, was president of the Newriver Company. His mother is the former Betty Chilton, Charleston. W.

socialite. "I'm scared I'm just plain scared," Gaines said. Fiance Returns Gaines had flown to Pittsburgh but returned here immediately after learning she was missing. Airport personnel told police they recalled seeing the striking blonde kiss Gaines goodbye, then wave to him as he climbed aboard the plane. Jacqueline's car was found locked, parked in the airport parking lot.

Police conducted an exhaustive search of airport and the marshes surrounding the field. They were joined by a Coast Guard helicopter. Police said they were looking for some youths with ducktailed haircuts Gaines said he saw-loitering near the airport. Police did not say they thought Jacqueline had been kidnaped. An FBI spokesman in Newark said today that his office was "main-' taining liaison with police" in the event it appeared there had been a federal offense.

Halfs Better Half Ruins Court Case Wayne (JP) An assault and battery case against Guy Half was dismissed yesterday when Half's' better half, Helen, didn't show up in court to back up her Magistrate Charles de Walsche ruled that without Mrs. Half; there was only a half a case.j which legally is no case at all. I House Labor Committee OKs Bill a i (P) The House Labor Committee, by a narrow 16-14 vote, today formally approved a compromise labor control bill. Committee Democrats split down the middle 10-10. Six of the 10 Republicans voted for the bill which was a watered-down version of the measure passed by the Senate earlier this session.

1 i cans immediately served notice they would fight to strengthen the committee bill drastically when it reaches the House floor. Rep. Joseph Holt (R-Calif.) told reporters that "all Republi cans who voted for the bill did so only to get a bill on the floor." Rep. William H. Ayres (R- Ohio) said "not one Republican who voted for this bill will vote for it on the floor unless it is amended by the House." The bill as approved is the product of five weeks of acrimonious bill-drafting sessions.

Actually, it seems to please nobody. In advance of today's session called to vote formal approval, there was doubt the compromise would turn out to be the legislation finally sent to the House. Substitute Proposal Lined up with substitute proposals in hand were Republican and Democratic members. The committee met under an agreement making any and all substitute bills in order. Within the faction-ridden 30-member group were members who wanted no bill at all, those who felt the committee bill was too tough on labor, and others who felt it was not tough enough.

The Republicans met in a secret strategy session late yesterday with GOP House Leader Charles A. Halleck Earlier in the week, Halleck emerged from a White House meeting of GOP legislative leaders to blast the bill as too weak. Committee Republicans derisively called the bill a victory for Teamsters Union President James R. Hoffa when it was completed last Friday. Following yesterday's huddle, Republicans reported they were prepared to fight for a bill with stronger enforcement provisions in the committee "bill of rights" for union members.

Amended Senate Bill The committee version was a rewritten draft containing over 100 amendments of "the bill passed earlier this session by the Senate. But the House bill struck out the Senate's criminal penalties for violation of union rights and substituted civil court injunctions against union leaders who denied members the exercise of their privileges. It also cut down the authority of the secretary of labor to act in union election and rights cases, and relaxed Senate-passed restrictions against secondary boycotts, "hot cargo" contacts in interstate transportation, and organizational or "blackmail" picketing. Stock Prices Creep Higher New York (JP) Stock Market prices generally poked a shade higher this afternoon. Turnover ran at a moderate rate.

Trading interest focused largely on motor shares, sending most about a point higher. Some steels, electronics and aluminums also ambled ahead. Chrysler led the active motors by running up more than a point. General Motors and Ford gained nearly a point. American Mo tors sagged about half a point after the company declared a 60 cent dividend.

The Steelworkers' contract with the aluminum companies expires July 31. Same Offer Made The aluminum companies followed the pattern of the original proposal by the steel producers to the union by urging the union to accept a one-year wage freeze and give up the cost-of-living escalator provision in the old agreements. A total of 30,500 aluminum workers are represented by the union.

About 28,000 other aluminum workers are covered by other unions. After meeting yesterday with union representatives and twice with steel industry negotiators, Finnegan said: "We feel we now have a better orientation on the differences" between the two sides. He plans to meet today with Secretary of Labor James P. Mitchell in Washington. Mitchell is acting as a fact-find- for President Eisenhower, who could halt the strike at least temporarily at any time through emergency provisions of the Taft-Hartley law.

Hoped for Gains Union negotiators had hoped that making some gains with the aluminum companies might set a wage pattern for steel. The union had asked a 15-cents-an-hour package in each year of the new contract. Aluminum wages now average $2.91 per hour. The three aluminum companies involved in negotiations with the Steelworkers Union are the Aluminum Company of America, (ALCOA) Reynold Metals Company, and the Kaiser Aluminum and Chemical Corporation. ALCOA told the union it could not go along with "economic demands which already have been studied and rejected by the steel industry." The other two companies made similar rebuffs.

The steel strike started July 14 after weeks of unsuccessful negotiations during which the industry turned down demands for a 15-cents-an-hour annual package. Pre-strike wages averaged $3.10 an hour. The companies said increases would force a rise in steel prices and spur inflation. The union said steel profits were big enough to cover a wage increase. The strike has idled about workers in related fields such as coal, railroads, trucking, shipping and construction.
