tive impact upon our business
district.
An even greater impact was
felt in the schools where in
1852 their population was 1900
and is now $500. The whole
story of our school growth al
so reflects the construction of
refinery by Texaco in this
same period.
The city derives no direct
benefit tax-wise from Shell.
However, our water system sup
plies them with water-some 3
million gallons per day, and
they do lie within the port and
school districts. The bonding
ability of these agencies almost
doubles as our assessed valu-
alton within the city is roughly
6.5 millions while the refinery
is nearly twice this by itself.
The personnel of the refinery
that were brought in from 9TH
er areas we found to be of a
high type and their presence
became evident in our commun-
ity organizations very quickly.
Many found their way into i'm
portant positions in the various
churches. Chamber of Com
merce, School Board, City Coun-
Gil Zone is presently in office
United Good Neighbors Qast
years chairman, Rotary, Kiwan-
is, Lions, and Junior Chamber,
and all civic organizations.
A volunteer project perform
ed by small group of engi-
neers over half of which were
from Shell, pretty well typifies
the attitude of the whole refin-
cry. They made a complete en-
gineering survey for storm sew
ers for our city, the plans for
which were used to place the
sewers following $375,000
bond issue, voted in by the
people. The saving to the city
was at least $4,000 and was
instrumental in effecting the
passage of the bond.
Pm sorry l can't find any
thing negative to say about
Shell as l may sound unrealis,
tic, but l assure you we arc
completely happy with them.
If l can be of any further
help please contact me.

Back Plan
For Corp

CHICAGO, (JTA)-"Presi-
dent Kennedy's plan for an
international peace corps
strikes a responsive chord in
Israeli hearts," Abba Eban,
IsraeTs Minister of Educa-
ton and Culture, declared
on a speaking tour.
'WhateVer its fortunes
may be in the arena of i'm
plementation, the idea has
originality and constructive
vision," he said. "It is based
on the impulses of voluntary
service and pioneering which
are at the heart of Israels
rebirth."
The Israel Minister ad-
dressed a crowded meeting
of the Chicago Council on
Foreign Relations on the fl
nal day of his curtailed Am
erican tour on the subject,
"NeW States" Mr.. Eban
pointed out that events in
the Congo and elsewhere
coniured the view that new
states face formidable diff
culties before their political
independence is translated in
to a vision of stability and
peace.
"The key lies in the swift
development and education
of manpower. Humanity
needs a new and fair distri-
button not only of its materl-
al wealth but also of its in
tellectual and spiritual re-
sources. This consciousness
underlies much of IsraePs
cooperation with other mem
bers of the society of new
nations.
Mr.. Eban had been sched-
uled for five-week tour OF
the U. S., but it was cut to
two-weeks because of the po-
litical and educational emer-
gencieS in Israel.

election to the House or to chal-
lenge Democratic Senator Jo-
seph S. Clark, whose term ex-
pires next year.
Scranton May Yield
But this source said that the
pressure last week built UP to
the point that there is a real
possibility Mr.. Scranton will
yield.
The wealthy young Congress
man, whose family founded the
city of Scranton, has been eyed
as a conner" since last Novem-
Der, when he won a 17,O00-vote
victory over the incumbent
Democrat while Mr.. Kennedy
was carrying his economically
depressed home district by
Is 900 votes.
In last Tuesdays election, a
r epublica n backed by Mr..
Scranton won the mayorship of
Scranton as part of a State
wide pattern that also saw Re-
.publicans oust incumbent DEM
ocratic regimes in Bethlehem,
Erie, York and other industrial
cities.
At the same time, the G. o. p.
won its first Statewide contest
in three years as Henry x.
O'Brien defeated Anne x. Al
perm for a place on the State
supreme court.
In Downward Cycle
These developments led one
Pennsylvania Democrat to COM
ment privately yesterday that
his party may be on a down
ward slope" of a cycle that saw
1t reach unparalleled success
from 1854 to 1860 by winning
and holding the governorship,
a Senate seat and the mayor
ships of all the major cities
except Harrisburg.
Tuesdays election cheered
Pennsylvania Republicans by
producing evidence of the first
serious voter rebellion in Phila-
delphia and its suburbs against
the powerful city Democratic
organization headed by Repre-
sentative William ]. Green, jr.
In the city, where scandals
have erupted in the past six
Evening star., 1961-11-12

months. the Green organiza-
tion produced margins of be-
tween 1900 and $4,000 votes
for three major candidates,
compared to the I75,000 votes
he had predicted and the $751;
900 he had turned out for Mr..
Kennedy last year.
Republican Margins Rise
In the suburban areas of
Chester, Bucks, Montgomery
and Delaware counties, Re-
publican margins were up sub
stantially from last year. A
major G. o. P. issue in those
areas was opposition to Mr..
Green's plan to preserve his
six Democratic Congressional
seats in Philadelphia by ex-
tending the borders of two of
them out into the suburban
counties.
The setback to Mr.. Green's
organization was also viewed
by Pennsylvania political OBJ
servers as a possible obstacle
to the gubernatorial ambitions
of Philadelphia's Democratic
Mayor Richardson Dilworth.
Incumbent Gov. David l..
Lawrence cannot succeed him
self and Mr.. Dilworth, who
won office with reform" back
ing but has been increasingly
identified with the Green or
ganization, has been the only
serious Democratic contender
for the nomination.
On the other hand, Mr..
Green's weak showing Tues
day apparently removed the
possibility of his running a
candidate against Senator
Clark in next years Demo-
cratic primary. The Senator,
who preceded Mr.. Dilworth as
reform mayor of Philadelphia,
has never made his peace with
the city's organization leader
and until Tuesday a primary
fight between Senator Clark
and a Green-backed candidate
was a distinct possibility.
