Gondoliers May
Have To Battle
Autos in Venice
Venice, Italy-IWD-The gon
doliers of Venice are always
complaining bitterly about
competition from the motor
boats. What will they say
when they see the cars.
Yes, automobiles. A tenta
tive zoning plan calls for a
highway linking the outer la
goon islands, and opponents
of the scheme charge that this
fould inevitably, lead to open
ing Venice's eastern water
front to automobile traffic.
This, to any lover of Vene
tian tradition, is like adding
cubist details to a Raphael
painting or shaving off the
beard of Giuseppe Garbibaldi.
The zoning plan, worked
out by city authorities and
currently under study at the
Public Works Ministry, calls
for construction of a highway
on the long and narrow sandy
islands of Pellestrina and of
the Lido, which extend almost
in a straight line, closing the
Venice Lagoon and leaving
the city Inside. The highway
would be served by ferry
boats in the four narrow
straits dividing the islands
from one another and from
the mainland.
The island road would pro
vide a new and fast link be
tween the Bologna-Venice and
Trieste Venice highways,
which currently join on the
mainland at the town of Mes
tre. New Link
' Critics of the scheme, led
by the Italia Nostra (Our
Italy) Association, which
fights for the defense of ar
tistic beauties all over Italy,
charge that . the highway
would destroy the entire na
ture of Venice.
First of all, said critic
Emilio Lavagnino in the Rome
Newspaper II Messaggero, the
plan would turn the narrow
green belt of Islands between
the lagoon and the open sea
into a big suburban road. In
the second place, the obvious
next step would be to open
the Fondamenta Nuove (new
foundations) waterfront to car
traffic as a link between the
the new highway and the
city's railroad station, which
in turn is connected to the
mainland by a long bridge.
' "The hallucinating sight of
a car in St. Mark's square
, . . will very soon be a reali
ty If we go on this way,"
T.nvncnlnn wrote. . "And . the
gondolas in Venice will look
like those false old fishermen
In Capri, put there to provide
folklore for the foreigners."
Whether the gondolas would
remain at all was far from
certain. The gondoliers have
hn fiBhtlnc. demonstrating
and striking for years against

01 Factory Built
Homes Expected
Now York-(UPI-The all factory-built
home that is deliv
ered to the site in only two to
four pieces will be sold to a
lot more families in a lot more
communities this year.
But local building eoaes and
the determined opposition of
plumbers, electricians and oth
er labor unions still are keep
ing the pre-fab house com
panies from achieving real
mass production.
At least seven manufactur
ers will push hard in the East,
the Midwest, and Southwest
j and the Far West this year to
overcome local oojeciions 10
the nil factory-built home.
Unlike pre-fabs being put
p by the thousands in new
sub-divisions, the all factory-
built house is completely fin
ished inside and out at the
actory, with wiring and
plumbing fixtures in place. It
is hauled to the homeowner's
lot in two, three or four pieces
and then set on the founda
tion by a crane. The sections
are bolted together and the
plumbing lines joined by pipe
sleeves and connected to the
ground water, gas and sewer
ines.
Aside from the obvious
ime saving, the all-factory-
built house can save money
tor tlie buyer and increase the
manufacturer's profit at the
same time, according to Phil
ip Duff, vice president of
Guerdon Industries of Mar-
lette, Mich.
$400 Saved
About $400 in financine
charges can be saved the
builder or buyer because there
is so little onsite work that no
interim financing is needed.
Everything is financed in one
big loan-like a trailer or auto
sale."
That doesn't include buvine
the lot, of course. Some of the
companies even are consider
ing selling furnishings along
with the factory-built house
and financing the whole busi
ness in the purchase mort
gage. The house sections are cut
about the size of a big trailer
so they can be hauled easily
on the highway. Generally,
tne sections just bolt together,
but there are a few ingenious
models in which floor, wall
ana root panels ot one section
fold against the side of the
other section in transit so both
sections can be hauled on one
truck. One of these folding
houses (made by Transa Struc
tures of Fullerton, Calif.) has
three bedrooms and sells com
plete, for $12,500.
You must provide you own
lot.
Not Cheap
The all-factory-built houses
are not small or cheap. They
are 'made to compete with
houses costing $15,000 and up
Including land. With conven
tional pre-fabs erected by
builders in subdivisions, the
shell delivered by the factory
usually accounts for only one-
third the cost of the house
without land. On the all-factory-built
house, virtually the
whole price goes to the fac
tory except for the land.

Moisture Detector
For Missile Systems
Fort Belvoir, Va. (Science
Service) A moisture detec
tor for missile installations
has been developed by the
U.S. Army Engineer Research
and Development Laborato
ries here.
Known as an "electrolytic
hygrometer," the instrument
can detect moisture that
could cause vital Instruments
and equipment to break
down. The 35-pound Instru
ment absorbs and simultane
ously electrolyzcs any mois
ture it spots from an air
sample. The detectors will bo
used In missile systems such
as the Redstone.
The earliest known research
studies to determine salt re
quirements of farm animals
were undertaken In France
about 1850. The studies show
ed that sheep fed stock salt in
their rations grew faster, and
Improved in general health
compared to th;ise receiving
no supplemental salt.
