FRIDAY MARCH 20, 1953 Abide in me, and I in you. (John 15:4.) Read John THE LODGE DYNAMICS i Truth the lc-t piopaganda Km to lie effective it needs definition. This is so it he uttered the Voice Xt America or on the floor of the I'nited Nations General The sewage disposal plant is per cent complete, and K04 per cent of the "allotted for it has now been sjient. The large pumps are expected to arrive around the end of March, and they are installed the plant i be for operation. good open i has enabled the contractors to proceed much more rapidh than had hoped, and there have been days when work was completely stopped.

A full of working davs is allowed on the project. and the contractors expect to complete then work well i i the July 15 limit. As of this date. 62.71 per cent of the appropriated for the sewers has been spent 68 44 per cent of the main line has been laid: 68.55 per cent of the manholes 1m been installed, and rock work is 57.57 per complete. In the Alpha Construction i is directing the entire project, plans to put on a fourth ciew which will be assigned the task of digging the lateral connections.

However, points out that actually moie than 50 per cent of the borough's home owners are already connected to the sewer lines. This is because all those connected to old sewers were promptly connected to the new lines as they were laid: in addition. outlets into the Raystown were tapped into the line hich runs along the river bank and in several other localities home owners lapped in when the line was laid.

"Xo.

I believe the'plan is to start the work, probably with a local firm contracting it. as soon as a reasonable area is completed. Jn that way. the can proceed by districts, i and the streets i be back in condition al- as soon as all the lines are laid." Collins pointed out that every effort has teen made to too many lateral connections crossing streets. He pointed out that alleys and back have been utilized, and citizens have cooperated by granting more than 200 right-of-ways over private property within tlie The chief areas which remain to be sewer- ed are the North Side, where 9000 feet of line remain to be put down the area beyond street, i 6000 feet remaining: and a central district, where there are still 5000 feet.

1 you figure it out, more than 50.000 feet of line have now been completed, with 20,000 feet remaining. "A year from now," the chgineer assured us. "you won't the work was done. Everything will be back to normal, and the headaches of the past few months will be forgotten." Actually, he said. Bedford folks have been very.

cooperative and friendly as a whole. and '-ome of the people who badly needed the sewer were posit ely eager Jo help out where they could. So that's the way Bedford's biggest engineering project stands, at this moment in mid-March. We thought you might like to know. NEWS By HAROLD K.

It is pretty hard for even expensive Joints to clip you five bills for putting on the feedbag. unless you have lingered extra-long at the bar and have run up a tab with the man who draws the beers--but the way you can spend the ISO is to attend a testimonial banquet. New York in loaded 'with testimonial banquets. I have been to a handful of these affairs in my time and I guess before my brief candle is snuffed I will attend some more--but I never thought about the food that the half C-note was bringing until the other p. m.

when I tied my new purple evening tie and dropped into the Waldorf's grand ballroom for the dinner for Bob Hope. There were about 1.300 washed and manicured souls at the feast, including such fish out of water as Alben Barkley and Bernard Baruch and more native fauna like Fred Allen, George Jeasel and Milton Berle. The jokes rolled out fast and reasonably funny--even Baruch gagged things up a little--but after a white I tired of Uw repartee and looked down at the 50 bucks worth of food. It was a four-course affair, basically. I amused myself trying to set probable costs--to the diner--of each item but after awhile I wasn't so amused.

Pare things to the bone as I could, for example, I couldn't make the bite for the Crabmeat Louis less than about eight bucks. In the Automat. I could get eighteen plates of beef pie for eight bucks. THERE WERE OLIVES. NUTS AND CELERY on the table, which I figured would cost another nn.

and after the crabmeat there was New Orleans gumbo. It seemed pretty rough to me to be shelling out three or four boffos for a plate of soup but that was the way I made it. Soup on the Bowery these days. I am told, goes for about six cents, eight if you nave a chunk of meat in it. I ate witn the greatest of relian.

As far as I could figure it sold for about 24 bucks. That included three for the Clumps Elysees potatoes, or French another three for mothered new peas, which I guess are worth a bit more when they are smoth. ered early instead of let live. The other iron men were for a filet steak. I do not consciously remember ever having eaten an SIS anywhere before.

But the concensus is hat he leaves India much more iriendly to the United States and its policies than when he arrived Bowles himself admits his job lere went beyond the orthodox diplomatic approach. He went farther than any previous American ambassador--and probably than the of any other nation in India-to explain his country's viewpoint and its policies to Indians of all walks of life. But critics say Bowles failed to sway i Minister Jawaharlal Nehru from his position of neutrality.

They complain that his personal success and popularity in India resulted in part from "soft- pedaling" aspects of American foreign policy that are unpopular in India, and by carefully avoiding any public challenge to those parts of Indian foreign policy which clashed with America's. Bowles upheld this approach to India with the contention that India was entitled to hold its own independent foreign policy views, that the United States should not in any way give a hint to sensative nationalistic Indians of applying pressure to change them. His supporters claim, however, it was his behind the scenes success with Nehru which led India to side with the United Stales and the United Nations in its approach to a peace plan for Korea, accepting the principle of voluntary and not forced repatriation for prisoners, i They point out too. that Indian suspicion tnat the United States is i en the side of Pakistan in the dis- pute over Kashmir has larpplv eliminated through Bowies' approach to Prime Minister Nehru and his untiring and unceasing effor's to explain the United States policies that prevented an Indian explosion over the presence of Chinese Nationalist forces in Burma, and over Manifleld, and Blanche Stanley were listening to their radio in their farm home near here.

The 19-year-old Louisana soldier stood in front of a bunker on bloody Little Gibraltar on the Western Front of Korea and fought off attacking Chinese Communists trying to reach the bunker where the wounded colonel was lying with two other men.
