Kdward G. says he feels the same as he did so many years ago and I assure him I am as spry as when I began this dodge. But we look at each other a little crit ically, and he sees my hair is thin ner and I see his is too. But I am not wearing a scalp doily be cause no one cares how I look except my wife and she is getting used to me.

Edward G. played the role of the hilt and was a pleasure to watch; and a set where there's gunfire always is interesting. That gang ster film set the pace, made Ed ward G. a star and, for its pro ducers, millions. But, being re released now, in company with J931's "Public Enemy," it will make even more millions than it aia originally. Robinson tried to analyze the success of "Little Caesar." "That guy wanted to get ahead and he did it in his way." he said. "We all want to get ahead. Even though we despise his methods, we secretly applaud his desires. There's a little of Little Caesar in all of us the urge to be big shots." This reunion of small signifi cance has to be interrupted fre quently by a director's demands. Robinson gets paid ($60,000 per picture, I hear) for acting so he must go into his leer and talk out of the side of his mouth on order. In this one, called "Black Tues day," he is a gangster about to die in the chair. He escapes and continues his killings. It is brutal stuff.

Huge Dam in India Takes Much 'Know-how' Bush Bean Harvest At Lebanon Starts LEBANON Wednesday, July 21, marks the opening of bush bean picking and approximately 1,000 wrokers will be needed for their harvest and the pole bean picking which is expected to start the following Monday. At the peak of the bean sea son expected on Aug. 1, there ' By EUGENE LEVIN NANGAL TOWNSHIP. India Wi lt takes know-how to build dams the size of mammoth Bhakra. It also takes patience and diplomacy. This is the lesson being learned by American and Indian engineers tackling the Bhakra Dam, which may rank as the world's highest when completed in eight years. It is part of the Nangal-Bhakra de velopment project, on the Sutlej River in the Himalaya foothills 225 miles north of New Delhi. Orig inally it was designed to stand 680 feet high but additional excava tions will add to the height. India is paying the bill of 327 million dollars. American engi- will be a need for 2,500 in fields adjacent to Lebanon. This is due to greatly increased acreages planted this season. By the end of this week, 400 caneberry pickers will be har vesting the blackcap and boysen berry crop. Blackcap picking started in the Lacomb section Monday. Bulk of the harvest hands are expected to be recruited from un employed woods workers now out on strike. . ' neers are under direct coniracis in no way connected with the U.S. economic aid to jndia. Their lead er is Harvey Slocum of Alhambra, Calif., veteran construction boss at such big U.S. dams as Shasta and Grand Coulee. Between 30 and 45 Americans have been working here at various times. In their advisory capacity, the Americans often have found them selves in the r tual role of super visors. The I idians were nominal ly in charge, but the more ex perienced Americans were able to assert considerable influence. Slocum and most of the Ameri cans have managed to maintain good relations with their Indian fellow workers. Where their advice has not been accepted, they have taken the view that Bhakra, after all, is an Indian project. Bhakra Dam has been an Indian dream for 40 years. Almost all the preparatory work is finished, and efore the end of this year construc tion of the dam itself will start. Slocum describes it as possibly the most difficult dam ever undertak en, because of the remoteness of the. site, the area's geological tructure and the lack of sufficient trained personnel to supervise a 73,000-man work force. .
