A Greece Citizens Committee yesterday recommended tnat me I own oi ureece uuy us water from the Monroe County Water Authority instead of setting up its own water plant. The committee also recom mended enlarging the Rochester city water plant instead of the Monroe County Water Auinor-ity plant but did not say who should foot the bill for the enlarging job. That left open the question of whether such a oroj-ect would be in the hands of the Water Authority (which could purchase the city water plant) or the city.

The committee, headed ty Charles W. Marvin was named by Supervisor Gordon Howe a year ago to study the town's water situation. The town had an engineering report prepared by Nussbaumer, Clarke Velzy of Buffalo at the time which proposed a 351,000 town-owned water plant on. Lake Ontario. The town has taken no action on the report, however.

The citizens committee went beyond the Town of Greece in its recommendations: It urged that all existing major water facilities in Monroe County be consolidated under one agency as soon as prac-tiable instead of waiting until 1980 as recommended in the Metcalf and Eddy Report (prepared for the Water Authority). And, the commitee urged that the consolidated agency distribute water wholesale to a metropolitan water district. It recommended that Rochester sell its surplus water to alleviate water shortages in suburban townsclaiming that the existing city water supply has a surplus now and is still expected to have a surplus in the year 2,000. It urged that the city con tinue to supply the towns south of Rochester from its upland supply instead of installing the necessary equipment to supply those towns from Lake Ontario. It recommended that the 60- inch west side water main proposed in the Metcalf and Eddy report not be installed now.

In stead, the committee said, the existing 48-inch main from the new Rochester city plant should be used to its full capacity. Other recommendations were that new distribution mains be installed to increase the effi ciency of water distribution and to alleviate shortages, and that the metropolitan water district be enlarged gradually to cover the entire county.

His talk was the fourth in a series of six Lenten sermons given Thursdays at Asbury Church. It was the first appear ance at the Rochester church of the widely-known Negro preacher who is pastor of Con cord Church Baptist, Brooklyn. Basing his sermon, "The Power to Become," on Scripture from the Book of John, Dr. Taylor said mankind's denial of God was "the drama of Lent, the tragedy of God and the heartbreak of eternity." "Unbelievable," was Dr.

Taylor's description of the Bible passage, "He came unto His own and His own received Him not, but as many as received Him to them He gave the power to become the sons of God."

I Water Unit Closes Deal The Monroe County Water Authority yesterday plunked down $10,720,783.44 for the local system of the New York Water Service Corp. and thereby, at last, set itself up in the water-producing business. The formal closing marked the end of the agency's five-year struggle, much of it in the courts, to acquire the property. It put the authority into position! to plan for the long-range needs of the 38,000 customers it serves, either directly or through water districts, and to make needed improvements.

The final transaction took place in New York. The author- lty was represented by us chairman, Franklin W. Judson; George R. Williams, a member, and Daniel G- Kennedy, general councel. In anticipation of taking over, the agency already has the recommendations of its consulting engineers, Metcalf Eddy of Boston, covering a long-range improvement program.

One of the first steps planned now is an all-day tour of the properties on Monday by the five members of the authority to familiarize themselves with the physical layout, the better to be able to plan its program. The price paid yesterday was based on the condemnation award of $9,750,000 set by the Supreme Court. On top of that the authority paid more than half a million dollars for im provements made to the system since Jan. 1, 1958 not covered by the award and almost that much again for such items as accounts receivable and supplies on hand.

I March 13 SAVINGS BANK bator March 13 will aam dividandi 1st. Dividandt row M'd 4 ima Si. Watl 1771 Cbriaa A N. i. By HARVEY SOLTHGATE ROCHESTER Philharmonic audiences think they have "seen everything" in the line of guest conductors in the last two or three seasons, last night's concert at the Eastman brought a distinctive new figure who gave a decided fillip to the waning season.

Jean Martinon, eminent French born conductor, came as a stranger to Rochester but served notice almost at the first note of the concert that here is another of the arresting, distinctive leaders who will rate high in the city's score book of guest artists. In a program drawn entirely from French composers, Mr. Martinon proved himself a tone painter of extraordinary sensitivity and power. Perhaps it takes the French to interpret the French. At any rate we heard last night performances that brought new illumination to music that for the most part is a thing of subtle colors, delicate poesy and elusive charm.

The conductor knew what he was about every minute, and he seemed to impart to the orchestra his own feeling for the unusual by adding its applause to that of the audience a tribute that not every conductor wins. SELDOM HEARD curtain 1 raiser by the eighteenth century composer Rameau got things off to an engrossing start. This was the overture to the opera "Dardanus," a work once popular, now largely forgotten. The music played last night was more in the nature of a suite than an overture, for it had various sections, separated by pauses, but all held together by the melodic flow and the graceful rhythms characteristic of the period in which it was written. Rameau was one of the innovators in orchestration.

It was interesting to hear this charming work. The Symphony in Major by George Bizet has been so eclipsed by the composer's more popular works (particularly that one does not hear it often. Those who have a slight acquaintance with it usually think of it as a second rate affair. Last night played with the right velocity of tempo and the brisk, sharply cut phrases, it sounded like a new captivating work. It has many delightful themes, reminding of the composer's later music, original effects in oboes and flutes that remind of Berlioz, and with all a melodiousness and gaiety that make it, if not a Beethoven or a Brahms, at least something worth hearing again.

jt THE LATTER part of the program was devoted to the two modern French impressionists, Ravel and Debussy, and here Mr. Martinon seemed in his most congenial medium. Five parts of the inimitable Ravel "Mother Goose Suite" brought out all. of the gentleness and airy beauty of music that, although dealing with childish fancies, is for all ages. Mr.

Martinon got lovely effects, including an exquisite soft tone, from the orchestra. The three symphonic sketches from Debussy's "La Mer," which closed the program, seemed to this writer the most compelling interpretation of this mystic, delicately tinted, majestic music which he has heard. Debussy was dealing, of course, purely with impressions of the sea, of waves and winds and nature's voices. Mr. Martinon brought these impressions close to the listener.

At the end there was long applause for conductor and for individuals in the orchestra. Hanson Heads For Concert In South f)R. HOWARD Hanson is off today for New Orleans, where he will hear the premiere of his newest composition, "Seascape," played by the New Orleans Orchestra. The composer will conduct the performance, scheduled for Tuesday evening. Alexander, Hilsberg, the regular conductor, will conduct the remainder of the program.

The new work, suggested by the sea view from Dr. Hanson's cottage in Maine, was written at the request of Edward Benjamin, New Orleans business man and music patron, who annually awards a prize for the best composition of a restful na-ture an Eastman School student Benjamin came to Rochester for the first time last spring to hear the 1958 compositions. This was the first meeting between Benjamin and Dr. Hanson. In New Orleans, Dr.

and Mrs. Hanson will be entertained by the Benjamins. They will also be greeted by Jack Dailey, former executive secretary of the Civic Music now business manager of the New Orleans orchestra. Seneca Knitting Mills whose mills were destroyed in a 2Vz million dollar fire in Sen eca Falls late in January, will build a one-story manufactur ing plant on the Souhan farm in the Lake Road, a quarter of a mile east of Seneca Falls. The new building for the manufacture of sport and dress socks for men and women will have 120,000 square -meet and cost a million dollars.

Seneca county Assemblyman Francis J. Souhan, vice president of the textile plant and father of the concern's president, was born and brought up on the site of the proposed plant. The new building may be ready by summer or fail, a spokesman said. The concern has been operating in temporary quarters. Church Group Endorses Race Track Vote The State Council of Churches yesterday endorsed a bill to re quire two-thirds approval in a referendum of any new license for thoroughbred or harness McElroy to Leave Top Defense Post WASHINGTON.

March SUP) Secretary of Defense Neil McElroy said today he plans to leave his Dost "toward the end of this year" unless President Eisen hower feels that world conditions are such that he should stay. McElroy, who succeeded Charles E. Wilson as Pentagon chief in the fall of 1957 told questioners at a news conference today that there were personal reasons in addition to financial factors involved in his decision to return to private life. He said that he had told President Eisenhower of these reasons when he accepted the cabinet post and had then explained that he would want to be relieved before the end of the present administration. McElroy said that he would remain on the job-throughout the current session of Congress and that he would take part in "setting up the principles" of the defense budget that will be submitted to Congress next January.

There were 1,479 reported of fenses in 1958, the exact number of the year before. But police cleared up 94 more cases last year than in 1957. The total was 1,307 compared with 1,213 in 1957. The most numerous offenses were 176 petit larcenies and 38 burglaries. There were no mur ders although but one felonious assault, upon George Fisher, 46, of North Syracuse, resulted in murder.

Although he was beat- in in Brighton in December he didn't die until January, and the death was recorded in 1959.
