Interior in Bonn until March 81,

For all such pension obliga-
lions. the West German budget
currently appropriates $l.8 mil
lion annually. which means that
the median monthly payment
runs to the approximate equiva-
lent of $50. The beneficiaries are
for the most part elderly folks,
who were chased into strange
lands after giving their active life
to the service of Judaism in the
Germany of another day.
In Israel and South America,
in Great Britain and Australia, in
the United States and sometimes
in Germany herself, it has proved
a great boon economically and
psychologically, that these de-
voted laborers in the vineyard of
Germany's erstwhile Jewish COM
munity can now look forward
with assurance of regular
monthly remittance with the as
surance that is theirs of right.

up. - Walter S. Robertson,
United States Assistant Secre-

Public Roads Commissioner
c. D. Curtiss said today his
bureau takes the position under
the language of existing law it
could go to 48 or so feet for
vertical clearance, but only up
to ITO or ITS feet for horizontal
clearance. Additional enabling
Legislation would be needed, he
commended, to expand this and
also more money would be re-
quired for construction. There
lis now a $13.9 million appro-
priation.
Not Final Decision
The Army Engineers have yet
held no public hearing on this
project. Col. Sumner made it
clear his letter is not a final
decision by his Office on the new
bridge, but is raising certain
questions.
Col. Summers letter read in
part:
1t will be appreciated if you
will inform this Office as to
whether the above clearanceS are
considered maximum under cur
rent legislation and whether re-
vised plans will be submitted for
approval on the basis Of the in
creased clearances. The plans
submitted with your letter of
liz August, 1856, are returned for
such revision as you may con-
slider warranted.
/ Asks Cost Estimates
ct will be helpful if you will
/ include in your reply the esti-
mated cost of the bridge as orig
inally submitted and the esti-
mated cost of the structure as
modified. An estimate of the
cost of the structure with a
movable span having a hori-
zontal clearance of 300 feet will
also be appreciated"
Tides and winds in the Jones
Point region require sufficient
room for navigating, the Virginia

cordingly, the 150-foot horizon

gerously narrow in certain kinds

When he was found crying on

The perfectly germ-free animal
has become a medical reality in
three laboratories of the Western
world including one at the Wal
ter Reed Army Medical Center
here.
These laboratories are full OF
small tanks, pressure sealed
against contamination, where
germ-free animals are kept to
live fertile lives under perfectly
controlled conditions in theil
own sterile little worlds.
The germ-free research pro-
ject at Walter Reed Army In
stitute of Research began last
November under an Army grant
to DR.. Paul Gyorgy, professor OF
nutrition in pediatrics at the
University of Pennsylvania. The
Army allowed sum of about
$500,00O for the experiment
which is still being set up.
Experimentation with germ
free animals means that tissue
reaction to foreign factors may
be observed without any of the
obscuring factors of bacteria
