*  THE LIBRARIAN OF CONGRESS on Tuesday rejected proposed fees
   that radio broadcasters -- including those at colleges --
   would pay for playing music online. Now James H. Billington,
   the librarian, has until June 20 to determine on his own what
   the fees should be. His decision Tuesday did not indicate
   whether he thought the proposed fees were too high or too
   low.
