BEN-CURION WINS VOTE OF CONFIDENCE Premier David Ben-Gurion (white
hair, on rostrum) addresses the Knesset (Parliament) in Jerusalem on his decision to
withdraw Israeli forces from Egypt. Public opinion in the young state is massively
against giving up the remainder of the territorial gains won in the brief war with
Egypt. Although the aging Premier won a vote of confidence from the Parliament,
a hostile crowd stood outside and jeered for Ben-Gurion to "go back to the farm."
Terrorism Reign in South Vietnam Seen

trating the Cao Dai religious
sect to use it against the government.

Aqueduct To Help
Southwest Suggested
Dallas (U.PJ A Dallas man
has suggested a gigantic Roman
type aqueduct that would carry
water 1,500 miles from the Great
Lakes to the drought-stricken
Southwest.
Al Boerner, a Navy veteran
with a background in electron
ics, radar and engineering, said
it would be like an ancient Ro
man aqueduct. It would also
serve as a freeway.
Basically, the aqueduct would
be equipped with four huge
water tubes which could handle
36,000 acre-feet of water in 24
hours, and on the top would be
an eight-lane highway.
The water-tubes, when not in
use, would be used as freight
carriers. This would mean using
large capsules, controlled by
electronic relays.
The drawback to such an op
eration is financial, Boerner ex
plained. He figures it would cost
$500,000 a day to operate and
about one-third of the national
S33 billion national road pro
gram. However, he said it could
gross $2,000,000 a day. '
Boerner has been planning the
project for some three years and
has been working on a model
to present to President Eisen
hower. He added that water tafc
en from Lake Michigan or Lake
Superior through the waterduct
would not be missed since they
are on the rise.
About three-fourths of the
U.S. supply of linseed oil and
linseed meals comes from Min
nesota mills.
