Israel Pu||s0uf
Bulk Of Troops
I'm Sinai Area

TEL AVN. Dec. IL (Pl.-The
Israeli Army has withdrawn the
bulk of its troops from the Sinai
Peninsula. Some units remain as
covering forces for the final
phases Of the pull-out.
The withdrawal is being timed
to mesh with the movement east
ward from the Suez Canal Of
Yugoslav troops of the Emer-
gency Force.
The YugoSlav advance has
been slowed by Israeli-laid mine-
fields and roads blown up on the
western side of the peninsula.
No date has been announced
for the departure of the last
Israeli soldier from Sinai. but
1t is expected to take place within
two or three weeks. BY then
U. N. troops will have occupied
key centers on the eastern side
OF the desert peninsula. From
these they can patrol the Egyp-
tian-Israel border established in
the 1949 armistice.
Probable Headquarters
The probable headquarters for
the U. N. forces in Sinai will be
the road and rail center of Ell
Arish. on the Mediterranean in
the northeast corner of the
peninsula.
The airfield there, now in
operative and still in Israeli
hands, could be used to supply
the U N. troops by air if i'm
provements are made.
An Israeli government spokes-
man said he had no confirma-
ton of Egyptian press reports
that Egyptian troops are fol-
lowing the Yugoslav forces into
Sinai.
The reports are not causing
any immediate concern in
Israeli government quarters. The
official view. is that Egyptian
troops in Sinai would not
threaten Israel's security as long
as the U. N. International force
stands between the recent battle
field opponents.
Israels Position
The Israeli position is that
the international force should
remain until a settlement is
reached, perhaps a matter of
years. A ranking official of the
Israeli Foreign Ministry said:
we envisage Sinai as an in
ternational area occupied by an
international force. There could
also be an Egyptian force there
but it would not be a threaten
ing force as long as the inter-
national troops are present.
Can an international force
stay until matters are settled?
The answer is yes if the United
Nations says So"
Independent estimates place
the number of Israeli troops still
in Sinai at several thousand.
During the last six weeks. the
IsraeliS have removed all cap
Itured guns. ammunition, We
Ihicles and equipment which
could be used or repaired. Much
damaged equipment has been
carried away for salvaging of
spare parts.

Costello Loses
Plea at Trial 10
Bar Citizenship

NEW YORK. Sept. 81 Up
Gambler Frank Costello has been
ordered TO take the witness
stand today in his denaturaliza-
ton trial.
Costello said yesterday in Fed
eral Court that he was too i'll to
take the stand, and pleaded the
Fifth Amendment against self
determination testifying as a
prosecution witness in a case
against himself.
Judge Edward Palmieri said he
did not believe Costello's teSti-
mony in a non-criminal action
would violate the Fifth Amend
ment.
The 65-year-old Costello
claims he has cancer and heart
ailment. To his plea yesterday
that he was too sick to testify,
Judge Palmieri ordered Costello
examined by a cardiologist of the
courts choosing.
After the examination Judge
Palmieri said that. with proper
precautions, there was no valid
reason why Costello could not
testify.
Costello's attorney, Edward B.
Williams, was granted an ad-
iournment until today. Mr.. Will
liams contended the examination
of his client took only two
minutes and that he did not
have an opportunity to cross
examine the doctor.
Mr.. Williams also said Costello
needed advice so he may make
calculated and intelligent de-
cision as to what he will do"

Union to Finance
Public HOUSING

NEW YORK, Sept. 81 (P.-
The International Ladies Gar
ment Workers Union has ear
marked $40 million for financing
home construction for the public
David Dubinsky, union preSi-
dent, in announcing the home
loan plan yesterday, said the fund
would go toward building of Vet
Grams Administrations guaranteed
single homes throughout the
country.
E. B. Gardner, vice president
OF the Chase Manhattan Bank,
management agent for the
mortgages. termed the unions
plan "a step in the right direc-
ton"
Mr.. Gardner said that if other
unions followed substituting
major investments from Govern
ment bonds to housing mortgages
it would have a major i'm
pact" in increasing funds avail
able for building loans.
Mr.. Dubinsky said he expects
the interest rate to be slightly
more than 4 per cent a year
This would compare with an
average of 234 per cent on the
unions holdings in Federal Sc
curitieS.

Man Admits
Fire Killing 5

CHICAGO. Sept. 81 (P.-Po-
lice said a 27-year-old man adj
mitted last night that, in trying
to smoke out" his hiding wife,
he set a fire which killed five
persons Tuesday morning.
Police Sergt. Drew Brown said
Willie Lee Chism, colored, re-
lated he tossed a lighted match
down a stairwell of the Near
North Side tenement into some
rubbish. thinking his wife was
hiding there.
Flames spread quickly through
the building. -Four Negro adults
and one child persisted. At least
ii persons were hurt. Firemen
carried many others down lad
ders to safety.
Sergt Brown said Chism gave
this account:
He had quarreled with his
wife and he believed she had
fled from their nearby apart
ment to the fiat of a brother,
Robert Lee Adams, 20, who lives
in the fired building.
Searching for her there, he
thought he saw her covering in
the stairwell. He dropped a
lighted match into the rubbish,
became frightened when he saw
flames shoot up and fed.
Neither young Adams, Chism
or Chism's wife were injured.
1T was an accident" Sergt.
Brown quoted Chism as saying.
He was held without charge
for further questioning.

the Anacostia National Bank.
Mr.. Dawson is one of the

while Mr.. Baird is its treasurer.
Course Of Future
On the heels Of Mr.. McLeod's
announcement, here's the way
the program now shapes up:

store the historic material now
housed there, until it decides
which site offer to accept and its
new structure is erected.
2. The General Services Ad-
ministration will turn over to
the fund title to the land on
which the old building rests.
8. The old building will be
either torn down or moved to
another site. Photographs and
measurements of the structure
will be taken so that a duplicate
can be erected elsewhere, if de-
sired.
4. Land surveys will be made
OF the property on which the
building now stands.
5. The fund will request a
building permit from the Dis
trict Government.
Meet July 4
6. The association will hold a
business meeting at 1920 am.
on July 4 in the old fire engine
house to discuss the latest de-
velopments. This may be its last
session in the historic structure.
Patriotic exercises will follow
the business meeting.

BABSON DISCUSSES PROHIBITION

Babson Park, Mass, Jan. 19. My
father used to say to me: Roger,
avoid the words NEVER and AL
WAYS; also do not put dates on
your Forecasts" In discussing this
unpopular subject of Prohibition, [
will now observe his advice.
Prohibition Could Return
First, let me say am not fore

bition Party as a political factor

or both, of the major parties will
put some form of Prohibition in
their platforms. The curse of the
liquor traffic may be no different
now than 25 years ago; but there
is one great difference.
In 1888 when Prohibition was
Overwhelmingly defeated. there
were no great industries to put up
the funds to continue Prohibition,
while the great brewers, distillers.
and other liquor interests supplied
She funds to kill it. Then, however.
there were only 2015 million auto
mobiles. Today-with so million
automobiles-the situation is very
different In the next fight over
Prohibition. the automobile indus
try (now the second largest) which
includes manufacturers, sales agen-
cies. the great gasoline industry,
as well as the owners of property
rented by these interests, should
heavily support the Prohibition
cause. And this group is increasing
every year as more cars go on the
roads. There are now over 225, 900
filling stations earning nearly a
hilliOn dollars annually.

out almost as fast as they are
completed. It is a very spotty
situation. In suburban areas
around Philadelphia, for example,
we were told of operations re-
naming on builders hands only
long enough to make the finishing
touches, while others in the same
general locality were described as
"unexplainably sticky" Similar
conditions appeared to exist near
Harrisburg. In the Trenton area
of New Jersey builders spoke of
the probability of carrying over a
substantial number of houses into
the spring market. In the vicinity
of Reading, where operations have
maintained a steady but rather
conservative pace all year, new
houses were selling about as
promptly as ever Demand also
was said to remain active for the
season in places like Wilmington,
New Castle, and Newark in Della
ware, where there has been con-
siderable industrial expansion and
a continuing influx of workers.
Dover is another Delaware city
where the market has held up,
largely because of the housing
needs of airforce personnel.

Contributing To Slower Sales

supply Of mortgage money has

Washington Letter : By Robert Nelson ToYlor

and the service business operator
up to the head Of the largest cor
poration is to decipher what he
sees in the futures crystal ball,
there is cheering news from the
top spokesman of our most basic
industry.
"A survey just completed by the
American Iron and Steel Institute, !"
says Benjamin F. Fairlass, presi-
dent Of that body, Shows that iron
and steel companies plan to add
another fifteen million tons to the
nations steelmaking capacity with
in the next three years.
This increase is at the rate Of
about five million tons year. And
to appreciate what this announce
ment means at this time of fiscal
sOul-searching, it should be re-
membered that the industTy's3 ex
pansion over the past ten years
which has seemed pretty massive
was at the rate of approximate
" hree-and-a-half million tons a
year.
"The total cost Of expansion and
modernization since the end of
World War II (which boosted pro-
duction by 36 million tons to a
total of 128 million tons) was more
than seven billion dollars" says
Mr.. Fairless. Billions Of dollars
more are to be spent for the new
expansion over the next three years.
/ In 1856 alone, the steel companies
plan to spend IL billion dollars,
but various complex factors affec-
ting costs make exact estimates
for the fifteen million ton expansion
difficult"
Mr.. Fairless goes on to observe
that the physical problem of ex-
pansion will be more difficult and
costly for some companies than
for others. "Steel's greatest prob
lem today, as it faces the future,
is to get the money required to
carry on expansion of this magni-
tude and great cost. Over the
years" he points out, profits Of
the steel industry have been far
below the average for other lead
ing industries, particularly as to
return on Investment"
We can not think, however, that
the steelmakers' problem will be
too difficult, inasmuch as the
whole complex of American bust
ness, from the bottom to the top
could have no greater shOt-in-the-
arm at this time than the Institute &
well-studied and expressed con-
viction that the nation wants more
steel-143 million tons of it a year
