decision was made by Prime
Minister Ben-Gurion on political
grounds. And Gen. Dayan had
mo public comment.
Started Fighting at IL
Curiosity over Gen. Dayan's
political power is natural, con-
sidering the way he got his job
He had had a brilliant and long
record as military man in
Palestine-he started his career
in a settlement defense force at
the age of $50 there has been
no doubt as to his qualifications
But he also was active in Mapai
and was one of Ben-Gurion s
fayorite bright young men.
He was appointed chief Of gen.
eral staff on December 6. 1858
one day before Mr.. Ben-GurionS
temporary retirement. 1t was
widely assumed that the Prime
Minister had put his man in
that spot in order to keep a
vicarious finger in the military
pie.
Be that as it may. Gen. Dayan
has turned out to be an excel
lent commander. Students OF
military science who are Just be-
ginning to probe into the Sinai
campaign have been impressed
by its planning and execution.
No Sign of Politics
Does Dayan have political am
billions? In Israel, as in America
there is no rule against retired
generals running for Office. anc
Gen. Dayan presumably still vii
be young and popular when hi
takes off the uniform. 1t woulc
be natural for his party to want
to use his voter appeal. Other
ex-generalS are members of thu
KneSSet.
But there is no indication thai
Gen. Dayan is working in thai
direction. One Israeli frienc
pointed out. in proof of Gen
Dayan's lack of political activity
the fact that he has plenty 0.
time for recreation:
"Dayan frequently drops int
Tel Aviv or Jerusalem nigh
spots for an evening of dancing
But you never see a politician
there. They are too busy politick
ing to get any recreation.

Iladies-but also has time tc
make his own archaeological ex.
cursions and to putter with
paints. His home near Tel Avi,
has a virtual Roman forum fol
a back yard. 1t is full of ole
columns and stones he personally
dug up.
He is ready at any time to re.
lax. During the Sinai campaign
he broke off an inspection Of
captured Egyptian territory neal
AL Arish to start digging in the
ground. His officers thought ht
was looking for land mine, but
they were wrong. He had spotted
a bit of broken Roman pottery
He dug out the pieces, ther
spent three hours glueing then
together.
Incidentally, it would not be
out of character for Gen. Dayar
to dig up his own land mines
He is reckless in his personal
bravery, and all through his
military career has unneces-
sarily - in the opinion of his
brother officers - exposed him
self to front-line enemy fire.
He proved his bravery in his
youth in Jewish military action
against the Arabs in the days
OF the Mandate. He did so again
in World War II and also in
Srael'S i948 war with Arab
States, in which he was a re-
iglonal commander.
Gen. Dyan is informal and
casual, as are almost all native
born Israeli. He likes to get to
Tel Aviv's plush Dan Hotel on
Saturday nights wearing an
lopen-neck sports shirt and
Stacks. He is a jokemaker and
quick to win friends. Even men
under his army command ad-
dress him as "Moshe.
On only three subjects does
he avoid talking:
His eye smashed when a
World War II bullet hit the
telescope he was looking through
the two years he spent in Jail
starting in 1899. for being a
member of the Hagana Jewish
underground military force and
finally, his job.

Military Chief Of Isroe|
Likesto DoncetheMombo
BY RICHARD FRYKLUND

roreign Correspondent OF The Star
TEL AVN, Mar. 19.-Moshe
Dayan, a 41-year-old baby-faced
native-born "sabra" with one
eye shot out. loves to dance the
Mambo, paint lampshades. piece
together bits of Roman pottery
and lead attacks on Arab troops
He is good at all these activi-
ties. And his skill on the dance
floor and on the battlefield have
made him one of the most
popular of all Israelis.
His military skill-and some
good political connections-alsc
have made him chief of the gen.
eral staff of Israel's armed forces
After leading his soldiers to a
quick victory in the Sinai Desert
last fall. Maj. Gen. Dayan has
become world-famous figure
one readily spotted in the photo
graphs by his black eye patch.
What is he like? How much
influence does he WELD in the
political decisions of his govern
ment?
Refuses Personal Interviews
Gen. Dayan is a poor source,
himself. for the answers to these
questions. He refuses virtually
all requests for personal inter-
views and is as uncommunica-
tive as possible in the few press
conferences his job requires
Gen. Dayan is not actually
unfriendly to the press, He can
be the life Of a party with re-
porters after hours, but he
doesn't like to talk with them
about his job.
He gives two reasons for re-
naming silent:
First, he is a member of
Mapai. political party of Prime
Minister Ben-Gurion, and he
fears rightly that Israel's high
bipartisan newspapers either
will cheer or damn what he has
to say. according to their views
on Mapai.
Second. he knows that foreign
correspondents are interested
most in his influence on the
government and he does not
want a spate of interviews on
that subject which would make
him look like politician.
Leans Over Backward
AS far as can be learned from
objective Israelis. Gen. Dayar
actually leans over backward tt
stay out of politics. even though
like most professional soldiers il
the Israeli army, he is an active
member of the party. He says hi
believes in civilian control o.
the armed forces, and he let!

Peres, director general of the De.
Tense Ministry, do all the talk.
ing about defense policy.
His counsel is, of course
sought during days of compile,
decision. such as those which
preceded the withdrawal of Is,
raeli troops from the last oc,
cupied territory. Persons in {
position to know say Gen. Dayar
urged against that withdrawal
but that he did so on military
grounds.
1t is pointed out that Israel
occupation of the GAIA StriI
and the Sharm Ell Sheikh area
makes for an easier defense Of
this country. But the Withdrawal

British Dubious
OfCyprus Offer

LONDON, Mar. 10 (P.-Field
Marshal Sir John Harding, Brit
ish governor of Cyprus. indicat-
ed today he was not convinced
OF the sincerity of the latest truce
offer from the Greek-Cypriot
underground on the rebellious
island colony.
Sir John flew here from his
Mediterranean post for CONSUL
Itations amid reports of differ
ences with the colonial Office on
policy for Cyprus.
The islands EOKA under
ground last week offered to call
off its campaign of violence
against British rule If Britain
would release Archbishop Ma
karios from exile. The Greek
Orthodox Church leader on Cy-
prus was deported to the Sey-
chelle Islands in the Indian
Ocean last March after Britain
accused him of fostering EOKA
activity.
Sir John was reported opposed
to freeing the archbishop, con-
tending his military campaign
against EOKA is nearing a sue
cessful conclusion. The colonial
office was said to be willing to
release the archbishop without
conditions and enter into nego-
tiationS with him. When Arch
bishop Makarios was deported
the government said it would re-
lease him only when he de-
nounced the EOKA terrorism.
Sir John pointed out to news
men that the EOKA offer was to
suspend" and not cease" its
.anti-British battle.

In the Indictment it was stated
that ION February 6, while testify

ing that Messix did not do So"
Additional charges of issuing
worthless checks were also made
against Mumford, who is now on

His attorney, Everett F. War

tinued until the June term of court.
He said that Mumford was under
going a psychiatric test in Phila-

Still Time To Apply Lime

Farmers who haven't already put
lime on their land can still do the
job. according to George Vapaa,
county agricultural agent.
Most vegetable and field crops
need lime because it supplies cal
cium and magnesium-and corrects
soil acidity. And probably many
soils in the county need lime this
year, since heavy rains last year
caused much lime to leach out of
soils.
Lime is probably needed particu-
larly by asparagus, lima beans, cab
bage, broccoli. soybeans, and poss-
IDLY corn, he pointed out, although
it's best to have soil tested to de-
ternline lime requirements before
any is applied. The soil testing
laboratory at the University of Del
aware tests soil free.
I1igh magnesium (dolomitic)
limestone containing from 10 to %
per cent magnesium. oxide is the
best form to use, the agent said.
The limestone may be plowed down
or drilled in when fertilizer is ap-
piled.
Lime can be put on soil any time
of year-and, especially. during ear
ly spring or fall. The amount need
ed can be found through a soil test,
but most soils need limestone ey-
cry three to five years.

case, the best approach to reduc-

ate our failures.
The Council president listed the
six most frequent driver violations
In fatal accidents as excessive
speed, failure TO yield right of way,
failure to keep to the right of the
center line, driving under the in
fluence of alcohol, improper pass
ing, and disregard of an officer or
traffic control device.
THE only solution to this prob
lem is voluntary compliance by
drivers and pedestrians" he said.
Most drivers and pedestrians do
not knowingly violate traffic laws,
but the well-intentiOned but err

well, because of two hippopota-
muses..
Plans were going ahead to pump
water into the well at Washington
Park near the city zoo when zoo
officials realized this would mean
the we'll would have to be shut
down. The zoo would have to use
city water for a while, and this is
something Tony and Cleo. the hip
popotamuses, couldn't stand. City
water is too cold.
So the state decided to call off its
experiment.

Sometimes it's hard to realize just how fast this
Delaware of ours is growing.
Telephone growth is a pretty astonishing
measure of it.
Look at these facts, for example:
The total investment in Delaware's telephone
system, at the end of 1866, was slightly more
than $50 million. In the last three years alone
we have spent SO million in telephone expan-
sion and service improvements
The telephone system IS growing
all over the state
Our expansion program in 1856 cost an average
of better than $4,000 for each working day.
We completed the new Penn Rose Telephone
Building in Wilmington, along with building
additions in Dickinson Newport, Rehoboth,
Rodney and Smyrna.
We made % major additions to the equipment
in 19 of our central office buildings. We added
$500 miles of enough wire to cross the
country 29 times! These are just the highlights
for one year.
And more is coming must come
more and more and more. The growth all over
Milford chronicle., 1957-04-12

Delaware and the continuing demand for more
and better telephone service require continuing
construction expenditures.
The dollars of investors
must pay for this program
Most of the $39 million needed for our program
must come from investors.
We can not finance this growth from our
earnings.
Last year the amount we were able to keep
from what we earned covered little more than
one cent ont of eUery dollar Oe spent for erpars-
sion. For our continued expansion, we must
continue to rely on new dollars-the savings
of investors
People will invest in the telephone business
SO long as and only SO long as, they are confident
of fair return on their investment.
That is why it is our public obligation to be
financially strong and why it is in the public
interest that we be So Only financially strong
telephone company can fulfill its responsibility
to provide the best possible telephone service
to everyone who wants it :. and at the lowest
possible cost.
