Indian : Castle Is Monument

centuries after It's construction.
Nestled in a cavelike recess
in the perpendicular surface of
a l45-foot limestone cliff, the
20-room structure commands
an eagles eye view of the val
ley.
The five-story castle was
built of pink adobe. The
staunch construction has re-
sisted weathering to an amaz-
ing degree. Although the castle
was built about 1900 AID, CELL
ing timbers in many rooms are
still intact.

Savings Official Sees
Tighter Money in 1860

aggregate $31 billion in 1860,
a decline Of about 4 per cent.
Home construction prob
ably will decline from a level
Of about 1,350,000 dwellings
this year to about 1900, 900
in 1860" he said.
The league official added
that $9.2 billion would be
channeled into new home
construction next year, while
another $21.8 billion would
be distributed on existing
mortgages.
Funds obtained from re-
payments on outstanding
mortgage loans are expected
to remain at present levels
slightly over SIG billion-but
the supply Of new funds is
expected to decline from $13
billion this year to about
$11.5 billion in 1860.

Tightening credit condi-

Kenneth G. Heisler. man

that report in a recent ad-
dress before the annual con-

The official estimated that

There's no sign, at second

turning into a wonderfully

it does just that. The seat

One quite unexpected fea-
ture of the room on den duty
is an ingenious arrangement
for eliminating cigar smoke.
Interior Designer Sydney
Simon, AID, placed the big
lounge chair where the man
of the house would be most
comfortable, then set a venti-
lator fan in the ceiling in ex-
actly the right spot to draw
his cigar smoke up and out
Of the house.
Special lighting is also a
feature. Ceiling lights illumi-
nate books on shelves. and
fluorescent strips are con-
cealed behind the lower shelf

Pass Double All Pass
Opening lead: Two Of hearts.
East should not double three
clubs at rubber bridge. II he
gets two heart tricks he will
still have only four tricks. His
partner may well show up with
a completely worthless hand.
and then South will score game
for three clubs doubled and
made.
When the hand was actually
played in q tournament East
doubled without fear. East
didn't want to collect 100 points
for setting declarer one trick
undoubled: he might then dis
cover that all the other East
West pairs were scoring ITO or
lao points at hearts. II this
were the situation, a score of
100 points for East West would
be a horrible result: but q score
Of 200 points would be very fine.
West opened the deuce Of
hearts and East took the king
and ace. East breathed a little
more freely. but he was still not
out Of the woods. He could see
four tricks but the fifth was q
little harder to discover.
Sets Up Trump Trick
There wasn't much chance to
develop q trick in any Of the
side suits, so East tried to set
up a trump trick for his part
ner. After cashing the top
hearts East took the ace of
diamonds and led another dia-
mond to dummy. Declarer led
the king Of clubs. and East took
THE ace. E
Now East led a third dia-
mond. and Vests nine of clubs
could not be shut out. II South
ruffed low. West would overruff
II South ruffed with the 10, the
nine would become high later on.

What do you do?
Answer: Pass. There is no
virtue in responding on a four
point hand when you have poor
support for partners suit and
a very ragged suit Of your own.
Don't count points for double
tons when you lack support for
partners suit.

Worst Storm In 2 Years Eaters
 Europe Coastlines

LONDON, R - Europe's worst storm in g years was blowing itself out yesterday, leaving shat tered ships and 109 dead in it's wake.
 But Coastguardsmen, weary after a five-day battle, warned the temptest might still have deadly sting in it's tail.
 A little Dutch motor freighter sank in a collision in the Elbe Estuary, some seamen remained in trouble, and blinding bhzzards blanketed parts of Scandinavia.
 The toll in lives and shipping was the heaviest since the great storm of February, 1886, in which more than 200 died.
 In all, half dozen vessels have gone down, and four other flashed distress calls yesterday
 Snowy gales whipped across Sweden for the sixth straight day.
 The air-sea hunt for crewrnen of the Norwegian freighter Elfrida and the German ship Merkur was abandoned when darkness closed in. All 20 men aboard the Elfrida and the seven who manned the Merkur were assumed lost.
 The 1,719-ton Norwegian vessel turned turtle off the south coast of Norway Wednesday. The Mer- kur, 995 tons, was found wallow- ing and abandoned in the same general area.

US. Army To- Leave Iceland

WASHINGTON, R = The De- fense Department announced yes terday that all U. s. Army troops will be withdrawn from Iceland.
 Some. 4,O0O U. s. Air Force and Navy men will remain.
 The force to be pulled out con- sists of an Army battalion combat team of about 1,200 men.
 The Army troops will be rede- ployed during the first six months of 1960.
 ''Army units stationed in the United States will continue to maintain their capability for inn mediate deployment to Iceland in case of emergency" the head quarters said.
 These emergency troops would be from the Strategic Army Corps - units of the 82nd and 101st Airborne Divisions from Ft. Bragg, N. C., and Ft. Campbell, Ky, and of the 4th Infantry Division, Ft. Lewis, Wash.
 An Army spokesman sa d troops could be rushed to Iceland within a matter of hours if neces- sary.
 The Army said the transfer is part of the normal redistribution of forces, and has been under con- sideration for 212 years.
 A spokesman said the with drawaI will have no effect on United States commitments to the North Atlantic Treaty Organiza- ton. Since 1851, troops have been in Iceland under a two-nation agreement with that country, and have not been a part of the NATO force.
 Defense officials said the change has no connection with recent difficulties with Icelandic civil Hans, or with the change two weeks ago in the Icelandic gov ernment.

 Venta is still the guiding light. He once told a reporter: q may as well say it. I am Christ"
 "The Master was the most bril- liant man I ever knew" said Asaiah, the spokesman. "In spite of all they have accumulated against him, he lived the Ten Commandments, he taught the Ten Commandments, and he de- manded that the people under his charge live the Ten Command ments too. But I'm not saying he will return in the flesh. Only we know where Venta is today"
 And where is he?
 Asaiah tapped his head. 'He is here. He is inside all of us. Whe- ther he has a physical presence in which to return doesn't matter at all"
