Half-NIiIIion Statistics

Published here in the Wood
ward Building by TRINC AS
Sociates, Inc, a subsidiary of
Dun & Bradstreet, the work
contains almost half-a-million
statistics about 3,202 trucking
companies. The data is helpful
to bankers, insurance compa-
nies, rival railroads and others
involved in the industry.
The intriguing thing about
TRINC's is that one of its
authors this year is a computer.
During most of its history
since publication began in 1945,
the chore of compiling truck
ing information from Interstate
Commerce Commission reports
was a laundering headache.
More than a dozen statisti-

an IBM 1401 and other data

II you can't shed a pound.
hide II.
This is the new strategy
adopted by city officials for
coping with the dog pound, an
unpopular institution In It's
present neighborhood.
Frustrated In their efforts TO
move the dogs from their quar-
tiers at South Capitol and Eye
streets S.W., across the street
from a plush new hotel, District
officials have decided they will
try TO camouflage the home for
INDECENT CANNES.
Phil A. Doyle, executive d.
rector Of the Redevelopment
Land Agency, said yesterday
that starting is week I'VE will
put a fence on / street which
will screen the dog pound"
He added that the walls OF
this institution for homeless
dogs will also be raised and
battles placed over the top OF
the outdoor pens.
The battles are designed 10
prevent a guest In one Of the
upper stories of the Skyline
Inn and a dog below from even
exchanging so much as a
glance.

Pound Can't Be Moved
So It's Being Hidden

Mr.. Doyle explained that
when the developers Of the So
million Skyline Inn were shown
the plan for the area where the
hotel is now located the dog
pound site was identified as a
part OF a future park.
I'VE feel 1t would be break
ing faith with the developers
II we didn't take some steps TO
minimize this problem" said
Mr.. Doyle.
Richard Gee. manager OF the
hotel which will be dedicated

I'VE are extremely anxious TO
see the dog pound moved
tomorrow would not be too
soon"
However. 1t will probably be
at least a year before the Dis
trict can move It's dogs TO a
friendlier neighborhood.
The District Public Health
Department recently asked for
$4,000 for construction Of a
new dog pound at New York
and Fairview avenues. NE.
But this request wound up in
the city's second budget for
fiscal 1864 as an item which
can be financed only II new
revenues are obtained.

But the Yugoslav Communists

India Hits Red Terms
As Hiding Land Grab
Nehru Sends
Sharp NO
To Chou

NEW DELHI, Dec. / (AP).-
Prime Minister Nehru sharply
rejected today key points Of
Red China's terms of settling
the Himalayan conflict. He
accused the Chinese of using
their cease fire as a cover up
for adding huge chunks of Dor
derlands to China.
Mr.. Nehru's rejection, in a
letter to Red Chinese Premier
Chou En-lai, came after Pc
king announced its troops were
beginning to withdraw, as
promised, from advanced posi-
tons on two ends of midas
northern frontier. Indian Off
Gals could not confirm the
Withdrawals.
Mr.. Chou had warned Mr..
Nehru earlier that If his troops
did not withdraw also there
could be a resumption of the
fighting that had dealt Indian
army forces shattering defeats
in an offensive launched Oc-
tober 20.
Rejects Pullback Line
Mr.. Nehru told Mr.. Chou he
could not accept the Chinese
definition Of a line behind
which the Chinese propose
both sides withdraw 1917 miles,
leaving a 25-mile-wide demili-
tarized strip. This, Mr.. Nehru
said, would leave the Chinese
in possession of the fruits Of
aggression.
Mr.. Nehru said Peking's
thr9e-point proposal Of October
"a and the proclamation No
vember 81 for a cease fire and
Withdrawals were clearly
aimed at securing physical
control Of areas which were
never under Chinese admins

prior to September 8, 1852"

which the council fathers greet

good news on the health of His
Holiness"
Despite the generally optimis-
tic, an air of caution and con-
Germ persisted at the Vatican.
The Pope's personal doctor,
Prof. Antonio GaSbarrini. de-
layed indefinitely his return to
his home in Bologna. He had
originally planned to leave this
week end.
DR.. Gasbarrini saw the Pope
twice today. On the second
visit, after the Vatican denial
concerning surgery, DR.. Valdoni
was with him.
Clemente Cardinal Micara,
the Pope's vicar for the City Of
Rome. appealed to Romans
for prayers for the Pope. On
Wednesday the Vatican called
for Catholics around the world
to pray.
Since Wednesday, the Pope
has shown steady progress.

that he hopes to be able To
