Fayelte National Bank Trust Co.

The ribbon was cut Saturday lo open the new quarters and open house is being held there every day this week, during banking hours, with refreshments for all and treats for the children. The new quarters fill the space formerly occupied by the old Main-to-Peter St. arcade of the building and by the Household Furniture which was virtually destroyed in a fire five years ago. The new section has several entrances--from Main from Peter St.

and from the bank's nextdoor drive-in facility, which is a beauty spot in itself. It's hard to describe in words, and in a brief story, the tremendous transformation which has been affected the bright and airy lobby, the glowing colors of the walls, the gleaming Gold grillwork, the art ob- on display, the aomfort- able lounges, the service hall community The traditional round banking at the southeast corner of he building remains in use, spruced up and repainted.

An outstanding addition to the city's cultural life Is the Exhibit Lounge located off the lobby and open to the public with both permanent displays and outstanding works of art on loan from top museums and art galleries. The Premiere Exhibit, "Pot pourri No. 1," contains a representation of contemporary, tra ditional, ancient, tribal and ori ental arts in sculpture, paint ings, prints and decorative arts The lounge is warmly decor ated and comfortable with mod ern powder rooms, designed a "meeting place" for office workers, students, shoppers an visitors.

The spokesman, Veto Presut- said damage to the complex, ocated on a hilltop in this east- rn Ohio community, was esti- nated at $300,000. The explosion knocked out vindows in a wide area sur- ounding the plant and a giant, mushroom-shaped cloud, visible or 15 miles, rose over the city. Embers, skyrockets and colo'r- ul gunpowder displays show red the area, causing numer- ous fires and destroying all but five of the 87 buildings on the plant grounds. Nearly 600 firemen from 50 fire departments in Ohio and West Virginia fought the blazes.

At one time it was feared the flames might reach a building containing 25 tons of dynamite, and about 100 families in the area were evacuated. However, the building was saved and the families were permitted to return to their homes. The building containing (he dynamite is owned by the Austin Powder which leases the site from the fireworks firm and sells 'explosives to construction firms and coal mines in the area. Paradox Faces Voters For Nov. 5 Election (Editor's Note: Voters will find on their Nov.

5 ballots both a proposal for a new con- siilulion, and three other proposals to amend the old Con- stitutlon that has served the Commonwealth these 89 years. Here's an explanation of this anomaly). By VINCENT P. CAROCCI HARRISBURG (AP)-A paradox faces the voter when he goes to the polls Nov. 5.

At the same time the voter is being asked to call a constitutional convention to rewrite the state's basic law of 1874, he is icing asked to approve three constitutional amendments to that very document. A paradox, yes, but in all practicality, there is no other way to do it. Government must be guided ty law at hand--and the Constitution of 1874 still is the guiding ight of Pennsylvania government in the year 1963. It is impossible for a new con- ititution, should one eventually materialize, to take effect before 1966. Thus, proponents of change in 'ennsylvania must resorl (o (lie constitutional amendment process to legalize either program.

The constilutional amendments on the ballot this rear are Project 70, a vast na- ural resources development program; scholarship loans to deserving college students, and au- horization to transer the seat of state and local governments, necessary, in time of national emergency. This brings to 97 the number if amendments offered to Pennsylvania voters since 1900. Sixty- cm- of these have been passed, 'he fate of current three, of course, still is an open question. Project 70 and the scholarship oan program are the most wide- discussed amendments on the ballot. Little is heard about the emergency government ques- "on.

The Project 70 amendment vould authorize the state to borrow million for the purchase of park and recreational land around the state. is on the ballot because the Constitution prohibits the state rom contracting more than $1 million in debt at any one time. The $70 miliion would be bor- owed in a series of bond issues vhich would be repaid over a 5-30 year period. Some $40 million would go for tate park land in 43 counties, oncenlrated in the northeast, outheast, and southwest corers of the state. Another $20 million would be ffered on a matching basis to ocal governments which desire to purchase their own recreation 'tes.

The final $10 million would be ivided between the fish and ame commission for land pur- lase. The proposal is the baby of orest and Waters Secretary Maurice K. Goddard, a resnect- authority in the conservation eld. Goddard has devoted all of his oundless energy these past nonths to educating the public how vital he considers the rogram to the future develop- icnt of the state. He has encountered a sizable mount of opposition from those ho consider the program a uge land grab on the part of state.

Goddard argues, however, that state is running out of reathing space" when it arnes to outdoor recreation and to be teetering on edge of a yes or no vote. Proponents are cautiously optimistic about its fate. One argument raised by opponents is lhal if the loan program passes, it would open the door to free scholarship grants lo students. The question as it appears on (he ballot asks the voters if they approve an amendment which would "permit appropriations for scholarship grants or loans for higher educational purposes lo residents of the Supporters concede ihat a grant program would be authorized as the question is worded. However, (hey note that (he general assembly would have to enact enabling legislation before Ihe program could begin.

The enabling legislation for Ihe loan program already has been enacted by the legislature, pending voter approval. It appropriates $425,000 to (he i education 'assistance agency, which would be created if the The amendment must be approved before the agency can act because the present constitution prohibits any grant of state funds for "charitable, educational or benevolent purposes to any The amendment does not permit loans to theological students. The $425,000 loan guarantee would permit up to $5 million in loans at one time. Loans could not exceed $1,000 per student each academic year and $5,000 per student in all! Repayment would begin six months after Ihe student's graduation and must be completed within five years, Nobody really seems to care about (he emergency government provision and, as one person observed: "It's Ihe safest bet of the three to pass because it really doesn't matter if it doesn't."

Since fts arrival Thursday, the U.N, mission has been briefed by President Ngo Dinli Diem and his powerful brother, Ngo Dinh Nhu, and pro-government Buddhist leaders. The government schedule has given the U.N. investigators almost no opportunity to talk with opposition Buddhists or any opposition political group. The diplomats decided to break from Ihe tour-like schedule arranged by the government just as another Buddhist monk burned himself to death in front of the Roman Catholic Cathedral Sunday. It was the seventh Buddhist suicide by fire since June, and it was carried oul to dramatize the Buddhist charges during (he visit by the U.N.
