Many thoughtful Arab leaders are. seeking a way out of the area's pressing troubles. Frequently the suggestion is heard that a new league of Arab states, under United Nations auspices and with a fund sponsored by the United States, make an exhaustive study of the resources and how they could be used to develop the area. If such a program should get underway with American technical help, it might go a long way toward providing an effective weapon against the sort of communist penetration which cannot be fought off with guns.

Weldon, chariman of the Sterling Memorial Building Advisory committee, said today. Judge Weldon said he is sending a letter to the Town Council today calling attention to unsafe condition of the building and pointing out that neither the advisory committee nor the American Legion post has sufficient funds to defray the costs of repairs. It was estimated unofficially that $20,000 to $25,000 will be required to construct a new floor in the main auditorium, reconstruct the main entrance and lobby, install a new heatjng system and make other needed repairs. Judge Weldon said "Title of the land and building is vested in the town under the wills of the late Mrs. Catharine M.

Bunnell and Miss Cordelia Sterling. Neither the advisory committee, with its limited funds, nor Anderson-Dunn-Kochiss post, American Legion, managers of the structure, have sufficient funds to meet the expenses of the repairs. The building is certainly unsafe in its present condition, and unless money is forthcoming from the council, the building will have to be closed." Legion officials say rentals from the building cover major operating expenses but provide no profit. Much of the interior changes during the past several years have been done by Legion members without cost to the advisory committee. Donated la Town The Sterling Memorial building was constructed and donated to the town of Stratford by the late Mrs.

Bunnell and her sister. Miss Sterling, by the use of a fund of $50,000 provided by their late brother, John W. sterling. In addition, Miss Sterling contributed an additional $10,000 from a special fund from her brother's esfete. Mrs.

Bunnell added $6 000 from her personal fund. The deed of gift of the building to the town, dated Sept 25 1923, requires that the building shall remain under control of an advisory committee which has charge of the care, use and upkeep of the building with power Leonard A.
