COLOR TELEVISION IS FEASIBLE NOW, SAYS C.

B. S. ENGINEER th Associated Pres. WASHINGTON, Dec. 10 William B.

Lodge, Columbia Broadcasting System general engineering director, asserted today that color television is feasibl for "such areas as the New York metropolitan district." In testimony prepared for a federal communications commission hearing, Mr. Lodge contended this has bee "proved conclusively by tests conducted, by CBS during the last nine months. FCC has asked for complete information on the CBS color process, developed by Dr. Peter C. Goldmark, and the process developed by other firms.

CBS, in turn, has asked the commission to set up standards for color commercial broadcasts on the higher frequencies, 480 to 920 megacycles, now set aside for experimental purposes. Hearings on the CBS petition opened Monday with company officers testifying that their company is ready to start color television broadcasts as soon as FCC approval is granted. HCA-NBC and others contend more time is required before color broadcasts can be established "as a service to the public Mr. Lodge predicted that the CBS color transmitter would provide satisfactory television for 92.9 of the 13,979,000 people living within fifty miles of the station in the Chrysler Tower. The cost of building "master'' color stations, he estimated would be $777,400, or about 15 more than required for black and white transmission stations.

Smaller stations for color broadcasts, he said, would cost $369,150, or about 22 more than the black and white. TODAY'S SHORT STORY SUSPICION By Emmfe Bell Porter P.M.

Well, ten seconds wasn't enough time and even if he had answered it correctly, Mr. Theard is more or less of the opinion that the sponsors of the radio program over ABC wouldn't come through with the car, since WISH and the local distributors confess ignorance to any such offer.

She had distinctly heard her best friend, Phoebe, say: "Roy dear, we really should confess to Susan even if she is your wife, you must realize that she is no child." Roy's darkly handsome face was bent over the chair where Phoebe reclined gracefully, one arm thrown carelessly over the cloud I of dark hair which framed her delicate heart-shaped face.

Her blue eyes were fixed on Roy's troubled brow and one slim, white hand rested fleetlngly on his brown one. v- "Why, she's beautiful!" thought Susan, as she looked at them from the darkened side porch. "Strange I never thought before of her being so' lovely." She tried to still her hammering heart as she made another start for the living room, clicking her heels to make sure she was heard this time. She knew by the uncomfortable look on both faces as she entered that the conversation had not been finished. Phoebe still sat, pin-up-glrl fashion, one foot curled under her, and Roy stood stiffly by the gazing down into the street.

The clock chimed, breaking the silence. "Gosh!" exclaimed Roy, "I really dash!" Excusing himself, he hurried up the stairs. Susan tried to make her voice casual. "Too bad Roy has to go away so quickly on this 'business trip. He does hate to travel anyway and having to leave on THE WORLD Stamp albums of the future are likely to contain some new stamp-issuing countries as a result of current demands in the United Nations, peace treaty negotiations and Independence movements throughout the world.

Latest likely stamp-issuing prospect is the proposed sovereign United States of Indonesia, agreed upon by delegates of The Netherlands and the Indonesian Repub lie in conferences at Batavla, Java, in mid-November. Another new stanip-issuing country is expected to be the Faroe Islands, which voted last September for independence from Denmark: In the United Nations.

You sound as if you were going away forever, instead of just several days." She laid her hand caressingly on the broad dependable shoulders.

"We have had a pretty swell life together in the two years we've been married, haven't eyes were plead ing, rather than asking, as she waited tensely for an answer. A thousand questions passed through her mind, wanting to be answered Where had she failed him? Ha she lived up to his expecta-tios? And most dreadful of all, what was the meaning of the mysterious conversation she had partly overheard earlier in the evening, between Roy and Phoebe? Phoebe, her most loved and most trusted friend. She could no't bring herself to ask these ques tions openly and frankly; she could only stand there helplessly, with a puzzled expression on her face. Roy tipped her head back and passed his hand over her features, "Yes, aear, a most wonderful two years!" He pressed his mouth briefly against her cool lips and was gone Down the steps and into the waiting car. The night finally passed.

Susan slept fitfully and at 8 o'clock was debating with herself whether it was worth the trouble to go down and make coffee, when suddenly and terrifyingly the doorbell broke the early morning stillness. Susan fled down the steps with terror tugging at her heart and threw the door open to a weary-looking Phoebe' who stood on the steps smiling through her tears. "Phoebe," gasped Susan. "Phoebe, what why is anything wrong?" No, darling," soothed Phoebe. "Everything is very much all risht very much so! she repeated mysteriously.

"I have something for you." She held out a folded him." Phoebe's eyes, usually so frank and confiding, were lowered. "It is a shame, isn't it?" "This was such a sudden pursued Susan, closely watching Phoebe. "At dinner last night we made plans for seeing the show 'Azzalee' that every one's talking about. We even have the tickets Oh!" she exclaimed, "Let's 8 gCLUClf JltW tiiat IV7J A WUk. of town." A fleeting smile crossed Phoebe's features as she slipped into her wrap, "Susan you're an angel, my sweet, to ask me, but I have a heavy that can not be broken." "Oh you single girls!" teased Susan, "Always so rushed never any time for old friends but how about lunch tomorrow?" "Lunch?" repeated Phoebe vaguely.

"Why that is oh," she finished lamely, "I guess I'll be pretty busy tomorrow." Susan's suspicions glared to white heat as she opened the door for the departing Phoebe. K. she laughed, "I guess I can manage to toddle along somehow." After bidding good-by Susan hurriedly joined her husband in the bedroom. Roy's usually calm face was flushed. Hastily he crammed pajamas into an open bag, as he anxiously asked, "Susan, are you sure you will be all right, staying here alone?" "Of course." answered Susan, flinging herself Into a chair.

It would cost more to overprint the stamps than to have new stamps printed, a de partment, official said. The remaining stock of eight-cent stamps will be kept on sale at the department's philatelic agency, this official said, "for a number of years" for the benefit of collectors.

The scarcity pf envelopes, on the other hand, made it profitable to overprint and devalue stocks of the six-cent airmail stamped envelopes when the new rate became effec tive. These overprinted envelopes were shipped to Army and Navy postoffices abroaa.
