2-3745 Has Ideas To Keep NATO Progressing Hints At Developing Alliance Into Economic As Well As Military Organization WASHINGTON-(AP)-Secretary of State Dulles said Tuesday he is going to Paris next week with some ideas for keeping the North Atlantic Alliance alive and growing lest it "dry Maybe, he told a news conference, the North Atlantic Treaty Organization might give economic help to underdeveloped areas, such as North Africa, or to areas upon which it depends economically, such as the oil-rich Middle East.

President Milton S. Roth presided at the weekly meeting at the Penn Alto hotel. It was decided that the stage going party for ABC member Robert M.

Urion would be held at the Elks club on May 9 beginning at 8 P. with a buffet luncheon being planned later in the evening. The membership also heard a report on three important events held thus far this year, the candy and flower sale and the paper drive. Rev. Steiner told the groups of some of the habits and customs of the Amish people who are concentrated on farms in the area about Lancaster.

He discussed, following questions from the floor, such customs as bundling and shunning. He noted that while bundling has gone out of existence, shunning is still a powerful part of the Amish religion. "If for one reason or another," the speaker reported, "a person breaks one of the established laws, he is shunned by the other members of the community until the ban is removed." Rev. Steiner noted that the Amish should not be confused with a number of closely related groups; the Amish, it was pointed out, work closely together and frugality is of extreme importance in their way of life.

Israel Forest To Be Named For Anthony According to an announcement by Senator Israel Stiefel, president of the all-Pennsylvania commission for the Leader woodland in Israel, Mayor Robert W. Anthony of Altoona, will be honored by having the Altoona forest in Israel dedicated to him. At the Broadwood hotel, Philadelphia on May 28, this dedication will take place at the Governor Leader dinner. Attorney Martin Goodman, chairman of the Altoona co committee, will present the mayor with a testimonial plaque and certificate indicative of the honor.

The ceremony will be part of a salute to the mayors and prominent citizens of Pennsylvania communities in whose honor forests are being planted in the Leader woodland on the historic hills of Judea overlooking the holy city, of Leader Jerusalem. woodland is an extension of the work of land reclamation and soil conservation initiated with the Governor Fine forest a few years ago. According to Senator Stiefel this woodland "will be part of a vast belt of security forests currently being established along the harassed borders of Israel" and will represent a "major contribution on the part of Pennsylvania citizens to the peace and stability of the Middle East."

He said they have some' ideas, too, and is anxious to hear them before talking too much about his own.

Dulles declined at a 40-minute news conference to elaborate further and his statements Monday that NATO should be developed into more than a military pact. He made those statements in a speech to the annual Associated Press luncheon in New York City. Dulles stressed Tuesday the military nature of NATO. He said, "Its military activities are major and for some time probably will be a major phase of its activities." But he said NATO is more than that. He "reflects the spirit of western civilization" and can be an instrument "to heal the disunities which in the past have so often been the cause of war." Healing these disunities is, he said, "perhaps the greatest single task, as I see it, of postwar statesmanship." With an alliance created in an emergency--such as NATO was in the face of the Soviet military threat--the future demands that it "either grows or tends to dry up." Russia seems now to be moving away from violence in its foreign policies, he said, added: "It's necessary and appropriate that we should adapt our tactics to the changes in Soviet Communist tactics."
