Interpreting News
by J. M. Roberts A. P. News Analyst

The British and Egyptians are going to lget out of the Anglo Egyptian Sudan, unrav- elling 135 years of history.
 The Egyptians hope to go back. in the belief that. unpre- pared for complete indepen- dence, the country will prefer attachment to Egypt when it votes later on.
 An Egyptian king in search of gold and precious stones con quered the area in 1920. But Egypt has so much trouble with the natives that Britain, by then Egypt's boss. had to take over.
 In 1874, Britain sent Chinese Gordon up the Nile to succeed Sir Samuel Baker. another Brit ish governor. Ten years later a native rebellion swept the Brit ish out of KhartouIm, and Cor don was killed. Gen. Kitchener was sent up, took over and re- built the city along modern lines. Ut was he who, having become famous as Lord Kitch- ener of KIhartouhm, died on "a torpedoed ship early in World War I.
 It was duiring these upheav- als in the Sudan that the native spearmen rushed and broke a British square. a formation much like the ancient Mace doni,an Iback-to-back phalanx, but made up of riflemen. And Rudyard Kipling, for once sub merged his famous itnperialis- tic feelings He gave way to ty- pical British sportsmanship with the Hines:
 50 'ere's to you, Fuzzy
 'Wuzzy, at your home in the

 The fuzzy-wuzzy to this day has made no great political pro greSs. He lives in a Hand where man need do but little to sup port himself in the manner to which he is accustomed. which isn't much to the American way of thinking, but suits him alll right. Most of them, though proud and careful of their herds, want no houses or other material possessions to burden them. Indolence is "a way of life.
 Now, through the agitations of a few seekers after indepen- dence, they are facing great 1 change. They may even have to ] seek a new national name. The 1 Anglo Egyptian Sudan is mere 1 ly one division of the Sudan, ! historically stretches from the Atlantic to the Red

Carthy committee. warned him
that Senator Mccarthy was "a
very ruthless and sharp ques-
TONER" but gave him no advice
as to how to answer.
Reads Letter on Peress
Gen. Zwicker also read aloud a
letter he had sent on October 81,
1858, to the commanding gen.
eral Of the 1st Army in which he
recommended Capt. Peress' i'm
mediate elimination from the
service on security grounds.
Senator Mccarthy then told
the general he would have saved
himself a lot of grief if he would
have read the letter on February

Gen. Zwicker answered that
the letter never had been
brought up as a specific question.

manding court martial for Mai.

Adams Showed Letter
Gen. Weible said he was
shown the letter by Mr.. Adams,
who asked him if the charges
were sufficient to warrant court
martial.
Mr.. Adams did not indicate
to him whether evidence was
available.
Senator Mcclellan asked the
witness If the letter hadn't con-
tanned sufficient information to
alert the Department of the
Army to withhold the discharge
until the evidence could be
gathered.
Senator Mccarthy said that
Gen. Weible had been very
grossly deceived" by Army

Gore Expects Defeat
OF Bond Issue Plan
For Super Highways
By the Assoeiated Press

Senator Gore, Democrat, Of
Tennessee said today it looks as
if the proposed bond issue meth
cd of financing a super highway
network has been tapped on
the head"
A Senate Public Works SUBJ
committee, of which Senator
Gore is Chairman, has been con-
Sidering the administrations
highway program and he said
he knows of only one member
who favors bond issues.
That apparently would be Sem
ator Bush, Republican, of Con-
necticut, who said he was very
much in sympathy" with Secre-
tary of the Treasury Humphreys
presentation yesterday of argu-
mentS for bond issue.
The main controversy over
the highway program involves
financing of the interstate net
Work. NOBODY is against more
and better roads.
Senator Bush said he knows of
mo other way to get them unless
we borrow the money" in the
way Mr.. Humphrey recommend
ed. Senator Gore told an in
terviewer the only other way ne
knows is to pay for roads ont of
the Treasury's general revenues.
Senator Gore has introduced a
bill that would nearly double
the present Federal highway aid
program Of $875 million a year.
The Gore bill also would place
more emphasis on continued
Federal-State cooperation in
road building.
Mr.. Humphrey testified yester-
day that while there are fewer
objections to the bond issue
method than to any other he
knows about, IF somebody has
a better one. I'd like to see 1t 90

that any piece of legislation in
wolves give and take"
The South Carolinian also
pointed to House action on Mon
day when. by an overwhelming
vote of 302 to 100, it blocked an
administration move to limit
postal pay raises to 71a per cent.
The Senate committees bill for
classified employees would aver
age 10 per cent rather than pro-
vide fiat 10 per cent increase
for everyone. Some employees
would get slightly more than 10
per cent and some slightly less.
The boost would also apply to
District Government classified
workers and legislative and judi
cial employees.
Meanwhile. it appeared that
the House will not act on Fed
eral pay legislation until after
the Easter recess, which will
end on April 13.
There was increasing talk in
the Capitol today that postal
employe groups will seek only
an additional six-tenths of /
per cent increase on top of the
7a per cent bill approved by
the House Civil Service Commit
tee. when the measure is called
up for House action.
Many top House members
have candidly told postal en-
ploye leaders that they would
not support a move to increase
the bill to 10 per cent. Such a
move, they said, would lead to
a presidential veto. which would
be very difficult to override.
Overall s.1% Average
On the other hand, an addi-
tional sixth-tenths of / per cent.
as proposed by several Demo-
Gratis on the House Civil Service
Committee. would increase the
bill to an overall overage of 81
per cent.
This amount, accompanied by
postal salary Redistribution al
ready approved by the House
Civil Service Committee, in all
likelihood would be signed by
the President, influential Demo-
cratic and Republican members
believe,
One top Republican member
declared: II think we can get
President Eisenhower to sign an
81 per cent bill which contained
postal salary Redistribution.
But I'm certain that he would
veto anything higher or any bill
that did not contain salary re-
classification"
Indications are that the Sem
ate probably will accept the
Houses bill in conference. If this
proves to be the case, an 81 per
cent average pay raise for postal
workers and a 6 or 7 per cent
boost for classified employees
would be virtually certain of be-
coming law this year, top men,

stock market" Mr.. Baruch con-
tinued. But as long as the
budget is unbalanced. to reduce
anyone's taxes is to shift the
burden of the cold war from one
group and to impose a heavier
burden upon other segments OF
the economy"
Reflects the Economy
Mr.. Baruch asked the COM
mittee not to forget that the
stock market, in the main. is "a
mirror of the economy" and
added:
"If our general economic and
security policies are sound. the
stock market will adjust to them
and we will not need to worry
about a possible collapse of the
market. If we do not preserve
our national security and our
national credit. then nothing
can have lasting value"
Mr.. Baruch recommended these
things be done:
l. Determine just what the
country's national security re-
quires. what we must do and
what our allies must do" and
then do it,"
2. Forego all tax reductions at
this time as nothing could in
spire more confidence in the
soundness Of our economy than
some reductions in the national
debt"
3. Discipline ourselves t.
whatever is required to win the
cold war and. a real peace"
It's the Thermometer
AS for the market itself, Mr..
Baruch said no one knows
whether stocks are too high at
the present time. He described
it as "the thermometer-not the
fever" of any boom and bust"
period.
"The thermometer should not
be blamed for rejecting all the
uncertainties of a world which
is neither at war nor at peace,
or the effects of the actions
taken by different business
managements or the infiationary
policies which have been pur-
sued for so long," Mr.. Baruch
said.
If imitation persists, Mr.. Ba-
ruch said. many stocks may be
underpriced at the present time.
The financier said people in
vest in stocks for two opposite
reasons-in confidence in the
future of an enterprise, or in
fear the value of their capital
will be lost through imitation.
Both factors. he added, are ac-
tive in the economy at present
and this is a basic reason
why stock fluctuations are so
puzzling.
There is evidence of a sound
economy" Mr.. Baruch contin-
ued. "At the same time, how
ever, we have not yet ended the
rise in the national debt even
while taxes have been reduced "
