Is
Water
Supply

The nation that brings q
water supply to nations short
of water will gain more pres
tige than by sending a man to
the moon," according to Mr..
A. L. Miller. director Of the
Office of saline water in the
Department of Interior.
Mr.. Miller was the guest
speaker yesterday morning at
the League Of Republican
Women's Morning Political
Study Group. His subject was
Water Needs for Tomor-
row."
The areas in the world
where water is most needed,
said Mr.. Miller, are the Mid
die East and North Africa
and Australia to some extent.
In speaking of the Arabic
countries, Mr.. Miller said,
'the two most important
things to them are religion
and water"
Water, he continued, sis so
important-it governs where
you live, what you eat and
what you grow - in 1857
there were over a thousand
towns in this country that
had to ration water during
the drought"
AS for the Potomac river,
Mr.. Miller said that he feels
the first improvement should
be the building of dams for
a future water supply and at
the same time to start clean
ing up the stream pollution.
He added that if the dams
weren't built, it would not
be long before we would have
to go to the ocean for our
water supply.
Mr.. Miller also said that if
the Potomac was not cleaned
up there was the danger Of
infectious polluted mud flats
developing in the area.
The speaker added that
with the ever increasing pop
ulation in the world we must
start looking to the ocean
and refining It to drinking
water.

FASHION
NOTEBOOK
Bikinis Are q Flop in Boston;
Black SWinsuits Top Others

1t didn't surprise us one
bit when Babette Doniger,
Fashion Co-ordinator for Ca
talina swimsuits, told us at
luncheon yesterday, "Bikinis
aren't going over at all in
Boston,"
What did surprise US, was
that blond Babette, who
really knows the ins and outs
Of SwimSuits, mentioned that
the black swimsuit outdiS-
tanceS all others in popular
ity.
Down South, strangely
enough, it's THE color, and
New Orleans seems to sell the
most Of the black suits"
Black Popular
Ironically, black suits fade
the fastest with constant ex-
posure to chlorination. Pool
swimmers are advised to try
another color.
ConverSatio ally, we
touched on many shores, al
ways coming back briefly to
BikiniS. There's nothing quite
like an authority on a subject
to give forth with startling
statistics" as Miss Doniger
called some of her fact-find-
ing processes.
Take, for example, the type
woman who wears bikini.
She's got lots of nerve, has
confidence, and I've yet to
see an unattractive figure at
tached to a bikini-wearer,"
she adds.
Muriel Heathcoat, Hecht's
swimsuit buyer, was also at
the luncheon kicking off the
stores three day Catalina A
La Carte" Seven Looks of
Fashions for the All-Day Sun
promotion.
II got two calls out in
Prince Georges for bikinis in
size 40," she told us. How
ever store bought bikinis
come only up to size 16.
5 Per Cent of Sales
Currently bikiniS account
for only 5 per cent of the
entire swimsuit sales. How
ever Miss Doniger thinks the
startling statistic" that last
year there were more boats
sold than autos in the United
States and that there are
some $4,000 private pools in
America may change the
Swimsuit picture.
In the privacy of their own
backyard, which now comes
complete with swimming pool,
some women prefer a two
piece brief style for summing.
Miss Doniger mentioned
your bathing suit is between
you and the world" so the
style of your choice should
be considered not only as
something to get you in and
out Of the water but also as
a lovely accessory and some
thing to flatter the figure.
There's hardly a one swim
suit woman left" she added
happily. Most women are

buying three and four swim
suits to suit themselves ac-
cording to mood and occa-
sion. The cotton swimsuit
is the one women view as
their most comfortable one,
she says.
She ought to know. When
not travelling around doing
SwimSuit commentaries, Miss
Doniger watches the passing
parade" she says, from her
home on Malibu Beach in
California.

There're Even Tricks
To CooIinu Coffee

LITTLE ROCK, Ark. (AP).-
DR.. Roy w. Carlson, a physicist
and engineer, says your coffee
will cool faster if you let 1t
stand a few minutes before
adding cream.
DR.. Carlson says this is why:
/. Before the cream is added.
the coffee is cooling from a
higher temperature and hence
faster.
2. The coffee is darker in
color without the cream and
therefore radiates heat faster.
8. Adding the cream. with its
fat molecules, slows the evap-
grafton of the water in the
coffee.
DR.. Carlson, whose home is
Berkeley. Calf, was here as
a consulting engineer.
He has a hobby of applying
physics to everyday life-for
example, how to cool coffee
faster.

disputes. Pakistan wants a
change in Kashmir and argues
other settlements might be
wrecked If the emotional issue
Of Kashmir is not settled.
Mr.. Nehru's visit began last
Monday when he and Pakistani
President Mohammed Ayub
Kahn signed a treaty ending
the bitter quarrel over distribu-
ton Of waters in the Indus
River basin.
The visit ended Friday with
an agreement to work toward
solution of financial trade and
boundary disputes left by the
division of British India in 1947.
The two leaders agreed Kash-
mir is a difficult question. They
said they would think about it
with a view to finding a solu-
ton"
When Hindu India divided
from Moslem Pakistan. Kash-
Mrs Hindu Maharaja chose to
join his predominantly Moslem
state to India. A war followed
and the two countries still face
each other over a United Ma
tions cease-flre line. 1t divides
Kashmir into the rugged north
western part controlled by PAX
istan and an area of important
valleys controlled by India.
For years Mr.. Nehru refused

driver is gone. What hap
pened? When? Was any one
killed? Did any one get hurt?
There is no one around to
answer.
At Mile 1858, a car and house
trailer bearing Colorado IL
cense plates passes you, kicking
up gravel. 1t leaves a me-
mento of its passing-a round
hole in your windshield, with
a crack running front top to
bottom.
And so it goes to White
horse, to Haines Junction and
down the Haines cutoff,

side"

decide its future. At least, Mr..
Nehru commented after he re-
turned home from Lahore that
a plebiscite was never men,
toned to him. But Pakistan's
essential point of allowing Mos
lens to choose their nation
remains.
The intellectual from India
and the big bluff soldier of
Pakistan seem to share few
common interests except their
problems. But many people
are counting on the stroAg
leadership of Nehru and Ayub
Khan to solve the problem of
Kashmir. They fear that after
these two go there will be no.
body big enough to do it.

Alaskan Road Offers
Miles Of Dust, Bumps

JUNEAU, Alaska (AP). -
The Alaska Highway actually
is like any gravel road in the
South 40.
It's just BUMPER, dustier
and infinitely much longer.
The dust is the thing that
gets you. Each passing vehicle
sets up a dust storm OF its
own. It billows up in dense
clouds. It cuts your vision to
a few feet. 1t seeps into the
car, irritating your eyes, nose
and mouth, and invading every
package or piece of luggage.
Then it settles down to the
road again, waiting to be
stirred up all over again.
After travelling the highway
from Seattle to Juneau, these
observations come back to
mind:
While travelling, you're posi-
tive each truck is driven by a
little man with horns and a
forked tail whose main object
IN life is to Cd run you down,
(2) force you off the road into
a bottomless canyon or 90
blind you with flying rocks
from his wheels.
Then, at night in a roadside
restaurant, you discover the
big, friendly guy eating next
to YOU is a truck driver and
he's advising you about the
swell cafe up the road a hun
dred miles or so with a Hun
garian refugee cook.
Same Thing Again
You revise your image OF
him-until the next time a big
truck roars into view.
The Frazer River Canyon
highway in British Columbia,
once a terror, now is a cake
walk.
Now, for most of its length,
the canyon highway is good for
so or so miles per hour, a real
breeze.
The Alaska highway actually
starts at Dawson Greek, British
Columbia. The city is mile
post zero"
From Dawson Greek north
each mile is marked by a small
white sign to the right Of the
road, the highway mleposts.
The farther you travel, the
more slowly they seem to
slip by.
At Mile 100, a big COW moose
stands motionless on a side
road, watching you go by with
baleful eyes.
Signs Warn Drivers
Infrequently. small red signs
atop white, square posts me-
morialize, fatal traffic accidents:
1.-TWO Killed Here
1857"
At Mile 241, two Indian
women sit on a log in the brush
by the side of the road, their
features impassive through the
dust.
One is old and white-haired,
dressed in a drab. long dress.
The other is young, dressed in
jeans and a light jacket. Her
long, black hair frames an in
tense face.
Their gaze follows your car
out of sight. There are no
houses or other vehicles in
sight. You wonder where they
came from, what they are
doing, where they are going.
Truck Gives Warning

truck lies grotesquely on its cab

to discuss the subject with PAX
istan while he went ahead bind
ing Kashmir into the Indian
union. Simply agreeing Kash-
mir is a problem which needs
to be solved is a concession on
his part.
But Mr.. Nehru warned
against creating greater prob
lens when silving one. This was
a reference to a widespread
fear that any Indian conces-
sions on Kashmir would touch
of communal bloodshed be-
tween Hindus and Moslems
there and probably incite Hindu
fanatics in the rest of India to
attack the Moslem minority of
40 million.
Pakistan's Stand
While recognizing this dan
ger Pakistan regards it as an
Indian excuse. for holding
Kashmir. The most important
thing in Pakistan eyes is giving
KaShmir MoslemS a chance to
join fellow Moslems in PAX
istan.
