But the metaphysics need n
detain us. The fact is that the Is
raelis are finding in the sand and
stone a most important economic
asset. According to S. Robert Abb
rahami. who is now visiting the
country from Israel, it has been
found that sand and stone COM
bined in concrete can do about
everything timber can do, and
some of the jobs they can do better
than timber.
A VARIETY OF experiments
have been made at the Yuval-Gad
factory in Ascalon, all the way
from railroad ties to pre-fabricat-
ed homes and they have been at
tended with unusual success.
Abraham, who is the director
general of the Yuval-Gad factory
predicts that sand is going to save
Israel 90 percent of its timber bill.
He is particularly hopeful about
pre-fabricated home made of
this material. 1t can be assembled
by two or three workmen. He
foresees a great future for this
type of home, not only in Israel
but for export.
The Yuval-Gad factory, financed
| by Israel Bonds, is colossal, "
affair if we may borrow some Hol-
lywoodese. 1t is the largest factory
of it's kind in the world. 1t was
brought into being to make con-
crete pipes and this is its prin-
cipal business. It is only the waste
which is at present diverted to the
other uses mentioned, but it may
be expected that when the task OF
completing the irrigation of Israel
is over, the by-product-making
sand and stone substitutes for tim
Der articles-may take a lead
place in its agenda.
: RIGHT NOW ISRAEL is looking
forward to the completion of the
segment of the pipeline to Beer
sheba, which is expected to take
place some time this April. This
is expected to be history-mahng
day marking turning point IN
Israel's farming economy. For the
first time, irrigation will have
made sufficient areas available to
definitely establish ISraepS self
sufficiency in food and even allow
for some exports, according to Alb
rahami.

Three Bills. OF
Missing Creenlease
Ransom Recovered

CHICAGO, Rp-Three bills from
the missing $3O3,7O2 portion OF
the Greenlease ransom money
have been found in Chicago.
Donald Hostetter, FBI chief in
Chicago, in announcing this today
said the search is continuing and
asked the general public to join
in the hunt.
A woman clerk in the Federal
Reserve Bank of Chicago spotted
one $40 bill that was part of the
ransom bundle. That started a
thorough check Of $40 and $40
bills. Federal Reserve Bank en-
ployes and FBI agents teamed up
in the task of checking over the
thousands of bills in the bank.
The result was the recovery of
two more bills, all of $40 denom-
nation
The Chicago recovery was the
largest at one time thus far. One
$40 bill was found Aug. 4 in
Minot, ND, two bills were found
this week in the Federal Reserve
Bank of St. Louis. Tracing the
money has led to the theory that
the cash may have been put in
circulation by carnival workers.
Bobby Greenlease, 6, was kid
mapped Sept. %, 1858, by Mrs.
Bonnie Heady and Carl Austin

naped and killed Bobby and they
were executed.

ransom money was recovered by
authorities, although Hall insisted
most of it was in his possession
when he was arrested. Policeman

of st. Louis who arrested Hall
and Mrs. Heady, contended they
turned in all the money they
found in Halls luggage. However,
they were convicted of perjury

Army Denies That
Eisenhower Fired
Intelligence Chief

WASHINGTON, R-The Army
today described as incorrect" a
published report that Maj. Gen.
Arthur G. Trudeau was dismissed
as chief of intelligence by direc-
ton of President Eisenhower.
The Army office of information
issued a formal statement in COM
ment on a story in the New York
Daily News to the effect that Eli
senhower fired Trudeau at the
personal plea" of Allen Dulles,
head of the Central Intelligence
Agency.
The statement was issued after
consultation with Gen. Maxwell
D. Taylor, Army chief of staff,
who has picked Maj. Gen. Ridgely
Gather Jr. to succeed Trudeau.
The text:
''The statement that Gen. Tru-
deau was relieved from his as
signment as CO of the Army
(chief of intelligence by direc-
ton Of the President is incorrect.
Gen. Trudeau is going to an i'm
portant assignment in the Far
East after having completed near
ly two years on the job. He has
been succeeded by Gen. Gather
who was Gen. Taylor's CO in the
Far East. A new chief Of staff
is privileged to make his own
selection Of his principal staff Of
ficers."
In a Washington story carrying
the byline Of John O'Donnell, the
News said Trudeau actually was
removed from his intelligence
command by Eisenhower despite
the violent, though suppressed,
opposition of the Pentagon, from
Secretary of Defense Wilson down
through the all powerful joint
chiefs of staff and uniformed pro-
fessionals of Army, Navy, and
Air"
The newspaper said the Presi-
dent "wavered" in his decision to
fire Trudeau but that Allen
Dulles plea was backed up by his
brother, Secretary of State John
Foster Dulles.
