He said that each ward must be redefined so that the six aldermen will provide equal representation. The council at a late hour settled down to a marathon discussion of water rates which was climaxed by adoption of a 25 per cent increase. Mayor Granai appealed in vain for a 50 per cent increase. He warned that the increase in water rates is so dangerous politically that future councils may be afraid to make further adjustments. An effective increase must be made now, said Granai.

But he finds himself helpless in the face of inexorable demands calling for skills, disciplines, techniques beyond the capacity of a 19th Century government and a 19th Century political system. FOLLOWING THE OUTBREAK OF Violence in 1948 in Bogota, which occurred in the middle of an inter-American conference when Gen. George C. Marshall, as Secretary of State, headed the American delegation, came nearly a decade of bloodshed. In the countryside the liberals and conservatives carried on a Kentucky-type feud that cost up to 100,000 lives.

This ended with agreement for a National Front to last 16 years under which liberal and conservative Presidents would alternate every four years. That, in effect, suspended the nation's political strife. But it did not bring vigorous or popular government. Valencia, a conservative, finds it difficult or impossible to get a two-thirds vote in the Congress required under the state of siege he declared some time ago. Conspicuously on the left, splinter parties are breaking away from the National Front.

The population of Colombia has doubled in less than 20 years and today half of the population is under 20 years old. This poses an enormous task of education, training, the creation of new jobs. As a foreign observer put it to a leading Colombian politician: "It means that what you have to do in five to 10 years is double all the facilities that were created in the 40 years since the Spaniards came here."

White on vacation. Until his return, the Free Press will publish the column of Marquis Childs. BOGOTA, COLOMBIA THE ALLIANCE For Progress has come to all but a full stop here in Colombia where, at the outset, the prospects seemed so bright. While it is hard to separate cause and effect, the government of the country is at the same time lapsing Into a state of near paralysis. Unemployment is rapidly rising.

The flight of capital continues, despite measures intended to stop it. Foreign exchange is all but exhausted and the World Bank, the International Monetary Fund and the U.S. Administration for International Development are saying a stern no to impassioned pleas for help. Yet hope springs eternal that when things get bad enough, when the prospect is for bloodshed, breakdown, complete anarchy in the country, Washington will come to the rescue. LAST DECEMBER WHEN THE SITUA-tion was not quite so desperate, an AID loan bailed out the government.

Of that loan, is blocked despite the earnest petitions of President Guillermo Leon Valencia who has been unable or unwilling to enforce austerity and who has only just now, after several attempts, found someone willing to take the thankless job of Minister of Finance. The American intervention in the Dominican Republic underwrote the hopes of those who cling to the conviction that if the worse comes to the worst and if the worst can be shown to be Communist-created, the Marines will be sent in. A report from an American source, paying that plans were in readiness for the occupation of Colombia as the Dominican Republic had been occupied, made big headlines. Despite official denials, this put new life in the conviction that a reprieve could be counted on. As one of the harassed Americans trying to bring some order out of the mess put it: "For us the Dominican crisis could not have come at a worse time." YET IN THE LONG VIEW, THE ERUP-tion in Santo Domingo is comparatively unimportant when put alongside the dilemma of Colombia and, for that matter, much of Latin America.

It is simply that the frame of political and economic reference is far too narrow. What worked in a genteel way in the first part of this century is unworkable in the 1960s, with an exploding population and a revolution not of rising expectations but rising demands. Bogota was once known as the Athens of South America. A cultivated and, on the whole, enlightened elite governed responsibly with a caste system firmly fixed so there was rarely trouble from the lower orders. President Va- Romano read committal prayers.

Last week, Paquet and Vic tor Cano charged that Rowley and Wallace favor continuing the practice of havtog farmers pay hauling costs even though Vermont milk laws specify the milk is the property of the dairy once it leaves the farm.

MRS. CLARA E. BESSETTE Mrs. Clara E. Bessette, 62, of 115V2 Maple died Tuesday EVEN FOR A STRONG GOVERNMENT with a viable economy, plus American help, that is a prospect so overwhelming as to create a sense of despair and defeat.

If anyone knows the answer, this reporter in interviews with Columbians in and out of the government, has not heard it. President Valencia, who is said to weep when he talks of his frustrations, reportedly will impose some form of currency control to stop the drain of dollars flowing to America. But this requires administrative techniques that seem beyond the government. Bankers and industrialists fear that such an attempt widely evaded will make the situation worse. Others talk of a military take-over in the near future, but the Colombian military is not of the "man on horseback" school, having, it is said, an inherent respect for civilian government.

And as a leading banker put it: "They are not likely to take over a bankrupt government confronted by problems which they certainly do not know how to solve," THE SAD COMMENTARY IS THAT Colombia is potentially rich in resources. If it were not for a dispute with Cabinet ministers in charge of petroleum and minerals, American oil companies would like to exploit a promising strike in Putumayo in the south, eventually carrying the oil by pipe line across the Andes to 'the coast. Iron ore and coal are in plentiful supply and large areas of fertile land could be farmed with an expenditure of capital and strong governmental direction. U.S. AID loans already made and technical assistance the total for three years through 1964 was just under $340,000,000 still go on.

But it is a long way from that brave moment when President Kennedy, visiting here in December, 1961, cheered the Alianza Para el Progreso in a speech that drew a wildly fervent response. morning in a local hospital after a short illness.

The first question our two sons (ages 15 and 13) asked was, "Does this mean you will get a raise in salary?" My husband answered, "Yes." the boys shot back, "that means we should get a raise in our allowance." My husband said, "How do you figure?" The younger boy replied, "Kids should share. If things are tough they should be satisfied with less. If there is a lot of money around they should be cut in." My husband said he'd have to think about it. We don't know how to handle this.

His opponents demanded that he furnish them authority in support of what he was saying and doing, and he accepted the challenge. His wonderful teachings were not just drawn out of his imagination or even his fertile mind. They were moral decisions which had been known by his people for centuries and had been tested by use.

There was a way in which Jesus was a great revolutionary, yet in another way he was a great conservative for He always built on foundations which had been laid down by other men. He had a profound respect for-the past for past wisdom and fidelity. "It is written," He would reply quietly to his opponents. "This is not just my idea this comes out of the word of God and down out of heaven from the wisdom of God." There is ultimate authority in the universe. We live on an insignificant little planet.
