Scott Asks Tax Help For Adult Education WASHINGTON UP) Rep. Hugh Scojt (R-Pa) called today for special tax exemptions to industry for the costs of sending scientists, engineers and technicians to advanced schools. He said th4s would encourage basic scientific advances within the framework of America's free enterprise system. Scott, a former Republican National Committee chairman and a member of the House Rules Committee, said he will introduce a bill for this purpose after Congress reconvenes in January. The measure would allow companies to write off their expenses in sending specialists to post graduate institutions provided the engineers, scientists or technicians already have a college degree.

Explaining his purpose, Scott said in a statement: "Within a free enterprise economy, it is better that research and development be kept within private hands wherever possible. "If American science is to maintain pre-emience much more will have to be spent in the field of pure science, which involves breakthroughs on the frontiers ot knowledge. "It is therefore wise to age industry to pay for training scientists to make discoveries, regardless of the immediate financial returns involved."

Army Drone Aircraft Flies Without Pilot FORT MONMOUTH, N. J. The Army today revealed a tiny, pilotless plane that flics over enemy terrain taking pictures as it goes. The drone aircraft even fires its own flares automatically to illuminate the pictures nt night. The Army said the device will give combat commanders accurate, low-level photographic reconnaissance of enemy territory without endangering the life of a pilot.

The U. S. Army Signal Engineering Laboratories here developed the camera In conjunction with the Fairchild Camera and Instrument Corp. of Syosset, N. Y.

The 17-pound camera is fitted into a small drone aircraft. The camera has no shutter but makes a series of pictures on a strip of film. A flash system is synchronized with the camera. Fourteen flush cartridges either side of the drone are ejected electrically as the film moves through the camera. The 'flash holds its light peak only briefly, making it almost impossible for enemy gunners to get a visual sight on the drone, the Army said.

Its mission over, the plane returns over its base and is landed by means of a parachute ejector system. Slushy, Icy Road Blamed For Pair of Auto Accidents COUDERSPORT, Pa.
