Recovery Aid
 Will Amount To l6 To 20 Billions

WASHINGTON, lP)-Secretary of State Marshall asked Congress today to provide S597, 100000 for emergency aid in Europe until March 3l, he estimated an addi- tional $7, O,OOO,OOO will be need ed in the Is months starting then.
 Eventually, Marshall told a joint meeting of the Senate and House foreign committee, long range Flu ropean recovery costs will range between $16,OOO, 100000 and $2O,- OOO,OOO,O0O.
 Putting Europe back in good health, Marshall said, is the goal of all the major allies except Rus sia. Bluntly, he said. "The Soviet Union does not, for it's own req sons, share this aim"
 Marshall's calculation of the to- tai cost of long range aid is con- siderably higher than the estimate submitted to President Truman by a 19-man citizens committee head ed by Secretary of Commerce liar riman. This group had placed the cost of the four-year, self help pro- gram at $l2,OOO,0OO,0O0 to ST. OO0, 0,OOO,OOO.
 However, Marshall said it is inn possible to compute the amount with accuracy at the present times.
 The secretary said that the $597 100000 in stop-gap funds is necessary to meet a real" and urgent need in France, Italy, and Austria.
 After that emergency period he estimated that $1,500, 100000 will

Typhoon Does Much Damage On LuZOn

MANILA (P)-A typhoon which swept across northern LuZon, blot ting out communications with sev- en provinces, caused $535,000 damage to ground installations, buildings and airplanes at Clark Field, north of Manila, the 18th Airforce said Saturday night.
 Earlier estimates placed the damage at S12O,OOO. Winds from the typhoon damaged 30 aircraft on the ground and wrecked build ings and temporary housing at the field.

Sweden has less than 1900 prison.
ers in all its penal institutions,
Gunnar Rudstedt, warden of the
Institution for Preventive Detention,
Hall, Sodertalje, Sweden, yesterday
told a meeting of the Lutheran
Layman's Fellowship in the Willard
Hotel.
Mr.. Rudstedt, who is visiting
American,penal institutions to study
methods, was introduced to the
gathering by Harold Hegstrom, pres
ident of the fellowship and director
Of the National Training School for
Boys here.
Mr.. Rudstedt further noted there
were only six or seven life prisoners
In Sweden and added all 80 Of that
nations women prisoners were in
one institution. The prisons have
about 100 men in each Of them. This
enables the wardens to give each
prisoner personal attention.
Asked to account for the low
criminal rate in country with
about 100000 inhabitants, Mr.. Rud-
stedt said the lack of extremely
large cities, with the consequent
absence of slums is an important
contributing factor He also cited
the general high level of education.

loch Ness Monster
Now Has a Rival
Australia S Bunyip
BY the Assoeiotsd Press

SYDNEY, Oct. 3.-The bunyip, a
fearsome swamp creature that is to
Australia what the Loeb Ness mon
ster Is to Scotland and the sea SER
pent Is to New England, has come
into the news again.
Ern Elphick of Gundagai, South
eastern New South Wales, told a
reporter he had seen "a thing that
might be a bunyip" on lagoon near
Gundagai, fired four shots at it
from shotgun, but the thing" sub
merged and he didn't see it again.
Every year or two someone reports
he has seen bunyfp in a lonely
swamp or shallow lake, but no one
yet has killed or captured one.
Called Man-eater.
The bunyip, according to legend,
is shy man-eater, with particular
liking for aborigines, who feared it
before the white man came to Aus
tralia to live 100 years ago. But
beyond its eating habits, there is
no generally accepted idea what the
bunyip looks like.
Mr.. Elphick said the one he saw
when he was accompanied by a
friend, Phil Slater, had a body a
little more than three feet long, ap-
parently covered with hair. He said
there was neck like the thick
part of swans neck. No head. b,t
two ears hanging from the upper
end Of the neck. The creature, Mr.
Elphick told reporter, makes a
noise like the low moaning of bull
and spouts water eight feet into
the air."
A more popular conception is that
the bunyip has a body resembling
a seal but about the size of a bullock,
a name and tail like a horse, and
that its bellows and misses can be
heard for miles. Other details that
have been reported from time to
time give the bunyip two tusks,
shining eyes, a two-flnned tail, a
jet-black shining coat covered with
feathers, and the ability to lay
eggs as big as buckets.
Many Are Skeptical.
Bunyips have been seen" by
white and black men in swamps all
over Australia and Tasmania for
decades, and are credited with a
taste for roots and Holsters, as well
as human beings.
Those who believe in the bunyip
hope that some day some one will
take photograph.
The skeptics say that photograph
will show a seal, a crocodile, horse,
or a bullock, because you just can't
photograph imagination.
