Less Alliance Britain Wanted By Diplomat LONDON (fll It has been a long time since a British foreign sec retary argued that what is needed for world peace is less rather than more alliance between Washington and London. On Oct. 26. however, Anuerin Bevan, who is ticketed for foreign secretary if Labor should win the election two years from now, takes off by air for America with just such a view in mind. Furthermore, Bevan expects to find a lot of Americans willing to agree with him during a three week lecture tour. "But let's get the record straight," says the blunt-spoken Laborite who this year has ex cited British political circles by adopting the patient restraint of a statesman. I am noi anu-ameri can. "Disagreeing with American foreign policy is one thing. Being anti-American is something quite "When I say there has been too much alliance over me past iu years It isn't because I don't like America," he said in an inter view. "It Is something which 1 believe is true not only for our own good but America's as well." naoan'i thncic U Hint the hvdro gen bomb has radically altered the world since iirnain ana me United States joined forces against Hitler. "It has sent the little nations running to shelter, one running to Russia, the other to the United Slates," ho said. "The world is being divided into two camps.

As Bevan declared in a recent speech, "We want to have the op portunity of interposing between these two giants our moderating influence. Bcvan's arguments on a high diplomatic plane are relatively new on the British political scene They are the subject of much comment, some sarcastic. Not many months ago he was dismissed by the Conservative press as a fiery promoter of left wing causes. When his fellow Laborites re spectfully disagreed with Winston Churchill in the 1951 campaign, Bevan denounced the World War II leader as "stupid." He likened Conservatives to vermin and swine. He categorically attacked the rich. He plumped for nation alization of the land. The end of Bevan's rebellion came after his first really big sue cuss. In 1956 he was finally elected party treasurer. A month later Gaitskcll, as party leader, namea nis shadow foreign sec retary. Almost overnight Bevao laid down his left-wing causes to lake up a campaign for party unity and world peace.

Newspaper Blasts Nehru HONG KONG l-One of Hong Kong's two major English-lan guage newspapers today accused Prime Minister Nehru of India of failing to live up to his "moral istic pronouncements." The Hong Kong Standard said In a lengthy editorial that Nehru offered only "a crumbling mole hill of moral timidity during the Hungarian revolt last November. Nehru, stopping in Hong Kong on the way home from Japan, told the Indian community last night the world is not really civilized today." He called for a suspen sion of nuclear weapon tests "completely without reserva tions." The Standard conceded that Nehru's moralistic pronounce ments "more than once have to the good of all mankind pricked the world s collective conscience. But when it came to practicing morality during the Hungarian revolt, the paper said, as the free world looked to Pandit Nehru for a mountain of courage, he offered instead a crumbling molehill of moral timidity, indicting his long- held international status as moral ist and leader in man's struggle against tyranny."

The topic came up when members of the board were asked to approve the calling of bids for grading work in front of the par tially completed Ponderosa School. Gralapp told board members that the student enrollment is growing faster than the $120,000 annually is able to provide buildings for, and that expansion of the Ponderosa School into a complete junior high school to accommodate as many as 1,000 students is vitally necessary in the immediate years ahead.

Taylor, Abraham was one hundred and had to do. Sarah, his wife, was also far past the age of child-bearing. Yet God had promised that a son would be born to them. And in due time, Isaac, the son was born to them. as God had promised. Abraham ever believed that God would do as he had promised and so Abraham is called "The Father of the Faithful."

He explained that the rising construction costs from year to year are more than offsetting the amount which would be paid in the form of bonding interest, and that due to the growth of the student bodies and the need for reducing enrollment pressures within t h elementary schools, the added school rooms will be critically re quired before the needed funds could be raised by serial levy, . In addition to the anticipated bond issue for added construction at the Ponderosa School, or for the establishment of another ele mentary school to the south, the directors of District 2 are also con sidering a request for bond reve nues to complete the south wing construction which is now under way at the 'high school. In other Monday night business the boards: 1. Set 3 p.m., October 31, as the date when bids for the Pon derosa grading would be opened In the offices of Architect Howard Perrin. 2. Refused to expend beyond the budgeted amounts when making salary adjustments for the four supervisors within the elementary system. The board had previously considered reports that the super visors were putting in more time than they were being paid for, and agreed to study anew per centage basis which would put the supervisors on a realistic pay pro gram. At the time of the board's original action, the budget com mittee made available $1,800 for adjusting the salaries of directors and supervisors. When considering the matter Monday night, the board agreed that the $750 remaining from the $1,800 should be distribut ed among the four supervisors on a percentage basis. The salary in crease will amount to slightly more than $4 per week for Forrest Haw ley, supervisor of special educa tion; Gordon Kensler, art super visor; Vivian Alloway, supervisor of elementary school libraries and Ruth Lobaugh, supervisor of vocal music within the elementary sys tem. . 3.
