World Bank Loan
Sought by Egypt
For IVA on Nile
By the Assoeia,ed Pres.

Top financial brass from 54
countries meet in Washington
this week, to discuss not only the
mysteries of international bank
ing but also the ancient romance
of how Egypt is made fertile by
the annual flooding of the Nile
River.
The incidental talks may bring
q kind of Tennessee Valley Au-
thority closer on the old Nile.
The IVA provides irrigation,
water power, flood control and a
vacation-land to thousands of
square miles.
Would Double Arabic Land.
Egypt's finance minister, DR..
Abdel Guelil el Emary, is ex-
pected to appear with a project
that would eventually double
the amount of land on which
Egypt grows food for its under
nouriShed people. Experts say
the great Aswan Dam he wants
built could assure the best use of
the precious waters in the rivers
$500 years of recorded history.
The international Bank for
Reconstruction and Develop
ment, popularity known as the
World Bank, is a major source
of capital for great development
projects. Its president, Eugene
r. Black, was in Cairo early this
year and Egyptian President Mo-
hammed Naguib told him about
the high priority Egypt is giving
to the dam.
Egypt itself lacks foreign cur
rency for the expansive machin-
cry and engineers that must
come from abroad. The World
Bank was the obvious souce for
a loan.
Black was interested. Engineer
ing studies, however, had not
been completed and no one ex-
pected any decision from him.
The banks directors represent |
the 54-member nations; it does |
not grant loans on a nod from |
any one man.
On Wednesday the bank and |
its sister organization, the In
ternational Monetary Fund, will |
start their four-day annual
meeting at their headquarters
here.
DR.. Ell Emary, as Naguib's
top financial and economic ad-
wiser, will represent Egypt as it's
governor on the fund.
May Cost Billion.
officials in Washington put |
the possible cost of the dam,
with its reservoir, irrigation SyS-
tenn, hydro-electric plants and
power lines. as high as a bill
lion dollars. Sums as low as
5000 million also have been
mentioned as the cost of one
stage of the development. The
figures usually heard vary from
$500 to $700 million.
No decision on the Oswan
dam loan is expected from the
bank for some months. It's usual
procedure is to send at least one
survey team to look over the
country's general economy. Then
the value of the particular prof.
ect is assessed in relation to the
whole picture. Only after that
Is the loan granted or refused.
This would be Egypt's first
loan from the bank.

April End for Curbs
Likely; 'Standbys'
Still Under Study
By jock Bell
Associcted Press Siuff Writer

The Eisenhower administra-
ton intends to let price-wage
controls die April 30 but still is
undecided about maintaining
standby machinery. Senator Taft
Of Ohio indicated yesterday.
The Senate Republican leader
made it clear that he himself is
opposed to enacting any standby
controls law, as suggested by
Chairman Capehart of the Sem
ate Banking Committee.
II don't think we should give
legal recognition to the principle
of controls" Senator Taft de-
clared. "We should have a free
economy in peacetime. If big
war emergency arises, Congress
can act quickly"
Under a standby plan Con-
gress would grant President Els
enhower wage price control pow
ers to be held in abeyance unless
a big infiationary upsurge
threatened.
Senator Taft said he thinks it
may be necessary to continue
controls over the ALLEGATION of
some strategic materials because
of the Korean war. He said rent
ceilings should be handled by
the States.
With indications that the
standby control question still IS
up in the air, Gen. Eisenhower
talked the matter over with Sen
ator Capehart and Representa-
tive Wolcott. chairman of the
House Banking Committee, at a
White House. conference yes

Mr.. Wolcott has opposed the

Senator Capehart. The House

But Defies Thieves;
$500 Untouched

A, 500-pound safe. stolen from
grocery. was found in vacant
house yesterday badly battered
but still containing $4,000 in
cash and checks.
Police said 5000 was taken
from the safe after thieves ripped
of the door. The $4,000 was
inside an inner compartment
which they were unable to get
open.
The safe was taken from q
Safeway store at 1881 Four
teenth street NV. during the
dark hours Of Saturday morning.
Parounag Arkoian, assistant
manager told police the back
door of the store had been forced
open.
Several hours later, Miss Mar
garet libby, 26. of 4419 Argyle
terrace NV. found the safe in
the basement of an unoccupied
house at 1113 r street NV. Her
father, Charles E. Tibby, owns
the house.
Miss libby said she was on her
way to meet a contractor about
having the house repaired for
rental. She said she smelled a
burning odor and went in to see
what caused it.
The safe was covered with an
old mattress. The thieves appar-
emily had tried to open the inner
compartment with an acetylene
torch but failed. Some of the
money inside was scorched.

Health Employees Lauded
For HeIp in Two Accidents

Commissioner Renah r. Cana
lier has commended DR.. Daniel L.
Seckinger. Director of Public
Health, for services given by the
Health Department in the acci-
dent at Union Station and the
explosion at Tenth and H streets
NE.
In his letter, Commissioner
Camalier declared:
THE experience through which
we passed recently are a
clear evidence that the Depart
ment of Health and all of the
employees under your direction
are aware of the necessity of be-
ing prepared at all times to meet
such emergencies. and the results
at the two locations further DEM
onstrate that not only did you
and your corps of physicians and
nurses and others spring to the
situation before you. but brings
to light the fact that such Serv-

the meeting with Gen. Eisen-
hover as an attempt ito get a
mutual understanding of the
basic economic factors that will
be before us from now on"
1T was very apparent there
is no difference between the
White House and Congress that
cannot be reconciled," he added.
Mr.. Wolcott said the question
OF rent controls and materials
ALLEGATIONS would have to be
considered by Congress sepa-
rately from price wage ceilings.
Michael v. Disable, leaving his
job as economic stablizer. issued
a final report urging President
Eisenhower not to abandon
price controls-especially if mil
itary activity is to be stepped
up.
Mr.. Disable said efforts to
curb imitation by indirect con-
trolls only, through deflation Of
credit and money supply, are
"fraught with danger" They
might start a serious recession,
he said.
Mr.. Disable said he gave his
views to three top advisers at

ton across traditional depart
mental lines.
-. To make available new de-

social problems, Mr.. Hoffman
said. "This new program aims
at bringing knowledge in this
all-important area more nearly
in line with the needs and re-
quirements of society. Our hope
is that by providing the finest
talent with the best opportunit-
les for development we can fur
