A fund of $350.000 for the

Site Left Open
Congress yesterday completed
action on the bill authorizing
the library when the Senate ac-
cepted a House amendment leav-
ing the determination of the site
of the library to a board of
regents which is to be appointed.
Earlier. the Senate had decided
that the library should be built
in or near Washington. but
members of the Illinois delega.
ton in Congress persuaded the
House to strike the specific
designation and to leave it to
the regents. There have been
predictions they would. recon-
mend site here because the new
library is an outgrowth of the
Armed Services Library already
here.
The final supplemental appro-
pr:ation bill will be sent to con-
ference with the House since the
Senate added 1869 million to the
House figure.
Outlays Charted
In the Senate bill is an extra
appropriation of 100000 for the
hire of additional agents for the
Bureau of Narcotics of the Treas
ury Department to carry out the
purposes of the new Federal drive
against drug addiction.
The measure also carries $780,
900 to plan a dental research
building and a general office
building at the National In
Stitutes of Health.

mission would receive $4,000 tc
cover its expenses in planning q

about three months.
The program, unique among
hospitals in the Washington
area, has attracted many more
applicants than the hospital can
accept.
Miss Suzanne Staley, 20, a jun

program profitable in more than
one way.

nursing. And now, she's seen
both sides.
Certainly" she said. "it gives
you an idea of what you're get
ting into. I liked it."
This is typical. Some of the
girls go on to the Alexandria
Hospital school and others choose
schools of nursing. A few decide
nursing is not for them, which
helps both the schools and the
students.
Mrs. Danica Wheelock, clinical
instructor at the hospital school,
is in charge of the high school
program. The girls, she says,
must be 16 years or older. Usually
they are high school juniors,
seniors or recent graduates.

THEN, RIDING to the res
cue-although he didn't know
it at the time-came Mr..
Dulles.
In his testimony before the
Appropriations Committee, the
CHA director said:
Our plans are based on
average net Office space of
approximately 89.5 square feet
per person"
And, in the GAS figures to
justify the budget it sought,
there was the sum of 1,135,000
square feet required as its
total space.
Someone got out a pencil
and did some quick long di-
vision, and came up with the
figure of 1882 CHA employees
here. The amateur spy had
a slight oversight in his calcu-
lationS, however, and so his
figure was vastly different
from that in the GSA an
nouncement.
Now there are two figures
out in the open, there for the
experts at putting two and
two together to hassle over.
Confusion reignS once more,
and the CHA ought to be pretty
happy about that.

ABOUT THIS time General
Services Administration seek
ing to be of service to the CHA
along with other Government
agencies, was getting ready to
announce its long-range plan
for Government buildings in
the area.
1t is a big project, running
into hundreds of millions of
dollars. The announcement
was designed to show how the
program would get Govern
ment workers out of the tenn
porary buildings and into
permanent Offices. Included
were the costs of the new
buildings, number of employees
of each agency involved, ETC.,
with the figures neatly totaled.
GSA, somehow, had man.
aged to get hold of the figure
Senator DworShak couldn't
get from Mr.. Dulles, and there
it was, in black and white, on
the announcement.
Just before the announce
ment was handed out, some
sharp-eyed GSA man noted
that this particularly close
mouthed agepcy's employee
total was on the list.
There was a hasty consul
tation, the heavy black ink
was called for, and the num-
Der was Immediately crossed
off all the copies of the an
nouncement.
But forgotten was the over
all total. The GAS employee
total could easily be deter
mined by adding up the num-
Der of employees for all the
other agencies involved, and
subtracting that from the
overall total.
Nobody took advantage of
it, of course, to go broadcast
ing the GAS employe total,
but there was a lot of chuck
ling over the slip that let the
number get down in black and
white.

from the Jewish Telegraph Agen-
cy.
High school students majoring IN
Oriental studies, they took part in
project sponsored by the prime
minister's office advisor on Arab
affairs.
The boys worked in Nazareth as
office boys and apprentices in Arab
workshops. The girls worked in the
Druze villages of Isfiyah and Dali
at Hacarmel, helping Arab women
in their housework and teaching
them Hebrew in their free time.
While they were Giving Arabic, r"
these boys and girls were deepen

1T MIGHT HAVE been the Ari-
zona twilight that cast it's spell
over us on Succoth Eve; bit some
how, think there was more to it
than that.
We had worked very hard in the
days before, building the little Sue
cab, cutting oleander and palm
branches to cover it, and decorat-
ing it with all varieties of autumn
fruit. It was an all-family project,
barely finished when sundown ap-
preached
Then we carried our dinner out
doors to the patio, and lit the
Yomtov candles and recited the
festival Kiddush.
Again, as before each holiday, we
said "Shehechyonu" tog geth er,
thanking God for keeping us safe
until this season and giving us an
other happy occasion to celebrate
zen famille."
THROUGH THE evening the
twinkling candles, the sweet-smell-
ing fruit, and the simple charm of
the Succah we had fashioned add
ed to enchantment quite beyond
expectation.
We were a corner of serenity in
a turbulent world.
Yet it was not as though we
closed out the world. Rather, the
peace about us seemed to strength
en- us and bind us more firmly to
each other and to our fellow men.
We were renewed and inspired,
as our religion never fails to in
spire us, with courage for the NOR
row.

May, 1948, and for the past eight
years, in direct violation of the
Constantinople Convention, she has
maintained and increased tn
blockade.
IN FEBRUARY, 1949, Egypt sign
ed a general armistice with Israel.
Article II of this agreement con-
tanned an injunction, against "any
warlike or hostile act' by either
party, and DR.. Ralph Bunche, then
UN acting mediator, interpreted
this as follows
There should be free movement
for legitimate shipping and no
VeStigeS of the wartime blockade
should be allowed to remain, as
they are inconsistent with both the
letter and the spirit of the armist-
ice agreements"
This provides guide for the ma
tionS now concerned with the fu-
ture of the Suez Canal.
At present Egypt's target is Is
rael. Tomorrow it might be any
nation which Egypt considered to
be her enemy or on which she de-
sired to put pressure. Written or
oral agreements of today would
doubtless be honored as Egypt has
honored her armistice agreement
with Israel.

THREE NEW PULP MILLS FORECAST FOR SOUTHEAST ALASKA

VICTORIA, B. c. (SpeciaD - Three more pulp operations may be established within the Tongass Ma tional Forest of Alaska in the next five years, predicted W. H. Johnson |. s. Forest Service, Juneau, Alas ka, today in addressing tree grow CTS and forest land managers gath cred here for the filth annual Western Forestry Conference.
 As a result of the initial opera tion of the Ketchikan Pulp Comp any plant at Ketchikan, which be- gan in 1854, more interest has been stimulated in pulping operations with timber coming from the Ton gass. The Pacific Northern Timber Company. with a 50-year timber sale contract, may begin construc- tion at Wrangell in 1857 Plans i'm clude revival of an existing old sawmil1.
 Other planned operations include Alaska Lumber and Pulp Co.,. Inc, which plans construction at Sitka in 1857. This is an American cor poration operating as a subsidiary of a Japanese corporation.
 Georgia-Pacific Alaska Corp, a subsidiary of Georgia-Pacific, Inc, has a preliminary award for seven and a half billion board feet of timber. Terms of the 50-year tim Der sale require that a pulp plant be constructed by July, 1861, pro- bably near Juneau.
 Johnson stated that no other timber sales are planned currently, pending the outcome of a four-year survey to determine volumes and calculate annual allowable cuts. lie warned that timber in South eastern Alaska contains a high pro portion of low-quality timber, fine for pulp but not good for lumber or plywood. Since logs are non-export- able from the Territory, both low and high quality material must be manufactured ill Alaska.
 Forests of interior Alaska, under Public Domain management, con- tain about four times the volume of Southeastern Alaska's forests. This vast area is cursed by fire, with an estimated so per cent of the area capable of producing com mercial timber having been burned over repeatedly. Species are well suited for pulp. said Johnson. who also stated that research on the effect of logging on salmon streams is underway in Southeast Alaska.
