TU 4-4752 Tourist Season By BILL JENKINS The tourist season is on full blast. I' you don't believe it all you have to do is venture out on the hijhways and you'll be impressed. Maybe with a bang.

A 300-horsepower Texas car roared past me flat out, lound out he didn't have clearance to avoid an oncoming car so cut right in front of me. I took to the borrow pit. Texas went merrilly on his way. A little later in the day the same thing happened to me just the oth er side of the Hebron summit. A Washington car this time !

It is probably true that you don't see a great deal of the I countryside al 90 miles per hour, but you can always cover a lot I of ground and brag when you get home, if you get there, about how many miles you made. Every time I think of the high horsepower tourists I think a good motto lor the gypsy clan might be that standing joke of long ago: "That's a pretty little town we're coming to, wasn't it?"

StnilstU't By JAMES MARLOW Associated Press News Analyst WASHINGTON APt-How does the government know what it's talking about when, every month, bond the normal duties of chiel it issues figures on how many n state, he had spent many hours people in the previous month had, as genial host to visiting East or didn't have jobs? Last week the government an nounced 6, 016.000 people were working in May and that in the I same month 3,389.000 were job- less. Did it ask questions of those almost 70 million people? No, it couldn't, possibly. Its fig ures on total employed and un employed are eslimates. based on samplings. But the government minus tney are, nevertheless, amazingly accurate. This is the ma t way it gets those figures. The Census Bureau hires 00 part-time people mostly house- wives and college students who go to 35,000 homes with prepared questions about who, among those living in each house, has a Job, lost a job, or is looking for work That seems like a-tiny sampling to come up with the announce ment on the total number of peo ple working or jobless In the United States. But the Census Bureau says because the questions and the locations of the houses are scien tifically worked out that a total estimate of 66.otB.mio people work ing will not be wrong by more than lOO.noo. The 35,000 homes visited by the v Census Bureau workers arc spread over 3.10 sample areas in 6.18 counties. They are not same every month. the Because of the way the areas are chosen Ihey include city ind farm homes, industrial, com m'rcial and larm areas the int ernment feels it 'has a pretty lecurate picture of the whole ounlry when the answers to the ;ueslions are analyzed. But the Bureau of Labor Matis cs, which works with the Census ureau in reaching totals and inclusions on employment, has line other checks lo guide it. too The RLS has arrangements with ictories around the country to oend it each month their payroll count meaning how many people Ihey have on their payrolls. These include not only production work ers but white collar people, sales man and bosses, too. The HLS gets other information from the factories. "or Instance, the number of hours their em ployes worked, their hourly and weekly earn'ngs, and the kind ol industry they're in. Still another check is made through the claims jobless work- ers around the country put in fori unemployment compensation. swm ,0 , choosing up sides to This Is not always a precise day (or wrd ,rade ninaown on me unempioyea. r.acn week many unemployed people. being out of a job so long theyiproducts overseas, or would like record- h''h n would revolu have used up all their unemploy- , ind American businessmen I'"""" 'he recording industry, mem benefits, .disappear as alwn0 foreign products compet-l In l9S. ,he American Cancer statistic from unemployment com !jn- uj, ,h,m ,, h- I Society reported that heavy cisa- ,nerB WPre wineiy contiiciing estl- mal" on ,h' lot"1-' By PHIL NEWSOM UP!

WALZER NEW YORK iL'PI -Eugene R. Black, president of the World Bank, armed with a billion-dollar water project, has been able to inng Pakistan and India to an agreement, a feat that has baf i led diplomats for years. The two nations have agreed en a plan to ha.me.ss the Indus River which has its source in the Hima layan mountains in romantic Tibet and Kashmir and flows through Pakistan to the Arabian 'sea. Black brought Mhe nations to gether after the World Bank had worked out a plan for the Indus Valley after years of study. The project calls for building storage reservoirs, canals, and irrigation system, and power development. It is estimated to cost a billion dollars and take 10 years to build. His plan would give India and Pakistan water, and water means so much that the two countries, at least temporarily, have for gotten their enmity to agree on the formula.

The method to be used would be to have the friendly nations supply a fund which would be added to and administered by the World Bank. While the two nations have agreed on the principles of the plan, they now must get together to agree on a water treaty which will be negotiated m London some time in August., . Such a treaty isn't a simple job. It involves many problems and obstacles. In all this world, no scientist has as yet found a substitute for water.
