NATO Commander Says
Russia Would Be Beaten
If Europe Attacked Now

DENVER, R-Gen. Alfred M.
Gruenther, supreme Allied COM
mander of North Atlantic Defense
Forces, said Saturday Russia
would "be beaten very badly" in
the long run if it were to launch
an all-out attack on Western Eu-
rope at this time.
Gruenther, here for confer
ence with President Eisenhower,
also told a news conference that
within the next three or four
years-given West German troops
and atomic Irresponsible West
ern allies would stand reason
ably good chance" to top any So
Wet onslaught at the outset.
He said the Allies air super
iority gives them "a tremendous
bulge"
He foresaw, however the pos
sibility of Russia developing a
long range bomber similar to the
US. BAT during the next few
years and declined to speculate
on what might happen to the cur
rent advantage of the Allies under
those circumstances.

Wandering Python, Comes

FORT WORTH, Tex, VT - VI
Pete - he came back from his
wanderings to find himself hero.
Fort Worth welcomed her long
lost python as if he were prodi-
gal son come home. The welcome
wasn't furnished even when Pete
bit his keeper.
Fifteen days Pete had been
gone, and then suddenly there he
appeared at teh Forest Park zoo
yesterday morning about 4 am.
amid the blood curdling screams
of the chimpanzees. The whole
ZOO awoke. The elephants trump
eted, the hyena screamed, the
cats roared.
Owner Marry Jackson an d
nightwatchman Ed Barker caught
or Pete with a snake catcher-a
loop of rope coming out of pipe
and put him in his cage at the
zoo.
Sunday Pete lay in his cage. All
Is feet and $50 pounds of him lay
twined and inter-tWined pretzel-
like in his corner, undulating
every now and then. Finally OF
Pete Topped his head out of the
mass and lay there-a cold snake

ers outside his cage.
"That's him-that's or Pete
said the people.
They came by the hundreds to

he were a long-lost friend.

the request of renewal of States
Alaska air service certificates.
Alaska Airlines had asked for
the delay so merger discussions
could be carried on with Pacific
Northern Airlines.
The arguments are set for Oct.
IL. Exploratory discussions be-
tween Pacific Northern and Alas
ka are scheduled for Oct. S.
However, after "A vice
president in Seattle labeled the
merger proposal terms Friday as
ridiculous" A. G. Woodley, PIMA
president, disclosed letter here
rejecting the financial computa-
tons proposed by Alaska. Wood
ley sent the letter to H. w. Rob-
inson of Alaska Airlines shortly
before the CAB announced its de-
NAL of the delay.
PIMA has opposed any delay in
CAB proceedings.
The board said it was denying
the request Gin view of the i'm
portance of the issues" and be-
cause of the need for an early de-
cision. 1t added, however, its ac-
ton was not to be considered an
indication of any lessening in the
boards interest in a possible mer-
ger of the two carriers.
The Oct. IL argument was called
on findings by Francis w. Brown,
CAB chief examiner, that Paci-
fic's rights to fly between Seattle
and Anchorage should be renewed
for seven years but that public
convenience and necessity do not
require renewal of Alaska Air
lines authority to operate be-
tween Fairbanks and Seattle
Portland"
He recommended additionally
an interchange of equipment be-
tween the two carriers at Anchor
age to facilitate traffic to Fair
banks during peak periods and
found that IAN Indignation of the
Pacific Northern and Alaska Air
lines systems would be in the
public interest"
In rejecting Robinson's sugges-
ted basis for the merger discus
sions, Woodley said he Cannot
agree" that Alaska's assets have
a value of $3,298,544 as Robinson
had asserted.
Asserting that GAS see it, this
is the area of negotiation" Wood
ley said Alaska should be pre-
pared when discussions are held
next Tuesday "to evaluate your
assets based on a realistic analy-
Woodley said he was greatly
distressed at the completely I'M
cooperative attitude which you
have demonstrated in your uni
lateral attempt to delay decision
in the States-Alaska case -
and added:
"From your actions, I am COM
peeled to conclude that your real
purpose in these negotiations :.
is not to arrive at a voluntary
consolidation, but to procure some
action from the CAB which will
have the effect of delaying or pre-
venting any issuance of renewed

NEW YORK, - (JTA) - The
World Jewish Congress recently
announced here that it will op-
pose India's proposal to place the
item of world calendar reform on
the agenda of the 18th session of
the United Nations Economic and
Social Council as ga secular act
which will have disastrous effects
on religious observances based on
traditional calendars"
Religious opposition to the
calendar reform which is behind

shese days would change from
year to year, it was pointed out
ov DR.. Maurice L. Perlzweig. the

NBW HOMES FOR old
Under NCHA plan
BY MarkleY Roberts

war housing "tempos" get
priority from NCHA.
But NCHA found a brand
new, three bedroom home
with a living room for the
Thornes in the 246-unit ad-
dition to Highland Dwellings,
in Southeast. Heretofore, Mrs.
Thorne had to cook over a
kerosene burner, and the
children had to carry in water
from an outside pump, Now
she has a modern kitchen.
When the Thornes moved
in, they were welcomed by
Herman Edwards, manager of
the development. Mr.. Ed
wards, who has been an
NCHA housing manager for
IL years, has 1850 family
units under his supervision.
He sees that housekeeping is
done properly and needed re-
pairs are made. He also
explains to new families
about the recreation center,
the cooperative nursery run
by mothers. and other social
and civic clubs in the High
land Dwellings community.
Every family that moves
into an NCHA home gets a
ugh explanation of
NCHA requirements. Rents
are adjusted to income, so
any change must be reported
Immediately to the manager.
If the income goes above a
certain figure-in the case of
the Thornes, $1,000 a year
the family must move. On
the other hand, If the family
increases, it becomes eligible
for a larger home.
The District exempts NCHA
from property taxes. But
NCHA last year paid $l5O,OOO
in lieu of taxes, and it pays
for services by the District
Government just as private
property owners do.

IF YOU could not afford
L a satisfactory home for
your family, what would you
do? Where would you go?
Here's how one family, with
help from the National Capt.
tai Housing Authority. moved
from subStandard housing
into new, modern home
with plenty of room for the
children.
Charles Thorne, his wife
and their four children were
living in an old house between
the c & o Canal and the
Potomac River when they
heard about the NCHA low
rent homes. Mr., Thorne, a
sheetmetal worker, had not
been able to go out to work
because of an asthmatic con-
dition affecting his heart. But
working slowly, he made many
improvements in the house.
building a room on stills over
the river bank and putting in
electricity.
Even so, the house did not
meet the standards set by
the District Health Depart
ment. And it was dangerous
for the children by the river.
Billy, the youngest, once fell
in and was rescued by his
brother. Mrs. Thorne sent
an application to NCHA.
To be eligible for an NCHA
home, a family must have an
income below a certain level
and its housing must fall
below health standards.
NCHA has about 1000 fam
lily units under its control in
the District. OF these, more
than 1000 are temporary
war housing units which are
being torn down or sold
to private owners. Families
