Senate Enacts Four Toll Bridge Bills HARRISBURG, April 12 (U.R) Pennsylvania Legislature night completed action on four of the five bills in the administration's "fool proof" pragram to free the 10 intra state toll bridges in the state. The Senate passed the bills and sent them to Governor James H. Duff for approval.

The vote on all four bills was 50-0. The only remaining piece of legislation in the program is a proposed constitutional amendment designed to reduce from more than 20 years to about three years the time when the bridges will be freed from tolls. The program calls for the administration to buy the bridges with the proceeds of a 10 million dollar bond issue. Tolls would be collected until the bonds are paid off. Based on present traffic, tolls would have to be collected for about 20 years to pay off the 10 million dollar debt.

The constitutional amendment is designed to permit the state to pay off the debt with gasoline tax and motor license fund revenues. Present law prohibits spending motor funds for such purposes. Two of the 10 remaining toll bridges are located at Harrisburg, two at Bethlehem and one each at Sunbury, Allentown, Point Marion, Charleroi-Monessen, Elwood City and Clark's Ferry. Owners value the 10 spans at $655,200 more than the 10 million dollars the state will have to buy them. Representative Charles H.

Brunner, Norristown, House majority leader, termed the plan "fool proof" when the House passed the measures. The Senate did not debate the bills. 10 Bloomsburg Police Withdraw Resignations Chief of Police David Beers, Patrolman Oren Fornwald and eight special officers have agreed to withdraw their recent resignations, following a meeting with Bloomsburg town council, during which difficulties between the officers and members of council were ironed out.

None of us alone can as sure the continuance of freedom." Then Mr. Truman asserted that the "joint strength" of the Atlantic Pact nations is of "tremendous significance to the future of free men In every part of the world. Tor this treaty is clear evidence," he said, "that differences in lan guage and in economic and political systems are no real bar to the enec-tive association of nations devoted to the great principles of human freedom and justice."

Bohlen and Assistant Secretary of State Ernest A. Gross, Connally announced postponement of committee hearings on the pact until April 25, a week later than the original starting date.

'inough he will be 65 years old next month, he doesnt look his age. His hair is noticeably whiter than when he left the Senate.

But his vitality seems to have increased, rather than suffered. He maintains a daily schedule of engagements that would weary the average business executive. He goes out several nights a week, mostly on so-called oSicial errands, but they all add up to the same thing banquet food he's eaten a hundred times before, and more extemporaneous speeches.
