Exact Location
For Air Base Is
Now Free-For-All
Now that the House Armed Ser-
vices Committee has approved the
expansion of the Olmsted Air Base
at Middletown, at a cost of $74,093,-
000, the exact location seems a free-
for-all.
Lancaster County is ‘making quite
a bid for the new depot and when
the news first broke, the Lancaster
newspapers practically had = even
the location cinched on a spot near
the Lancaster Airport but later
shifted to the west end of the Depot
at Marietta, in East Donegal twp.
But today there's another story.
York County is making a strong bid
for its location near York while
Reading is using all its power to
have the new depot located near
that city in Berks county.
{There are quite a number of op-
inions as to the advantages and dis-
advantages of having it located in
our community. The laboring class
are out strong for its location here
because they claim all can earn
“big money” and give very little
labor in return.’ A check at present
depots will verify this.
On the other hand industry, both
large and small, particularly the
former, are strongly opposed, also
due to the wage question. Today it
is quite a problem for the average
industry to match the wages paid
at depots for the amount of work
done.
Its quite a problem as to wheth-
er or not depots are a help to any
community and your guess is as
good as ours.
Cal. Bible Church

Pastor on Sunday
Mr. Walter Wilson, the new pas-
tor of Calvary Bible Church here
will arrive this week to assume his

ed for Mr. Wilsons home on Long
Island where they are spending a

very able Bible Teacher. He
is a graduate of Bob Jones Univer-
sity of Greenville} S. C.
He will be installed as pastor this
Sundays morning, July 22nd.
For the past three months the
Rev. Paul Wilt, dean of, the Lan-
caster School of the Bible has been
serving the church most faithfully,
while Mr. Wilson was concluding
his studies at the university. The
Rev. Wilt will be in charge of the
service this Sunday and will preach
the installation sermon.
The ordination of Mr. Wilson
will take place in the near future
with the Rev. Hiram Lefever, Pas-
tor of Mt. Calvary Church of Eliz-
abethtown conducting the service.

PM Chas. Bennett
Slightly Injured
When Ceiling Fell
No folks, that noise you heard on
Monday evening was not an earth-
quake, neither was it the chairman
at the peace conference at Kaesong
banging his gavel on the table—a
large portion of the ceiling at the
postoffice “just wouldn't stay put”
—it fell down.
After Postmaster Bennett return-
ed from his vacation he was greet-
ed with the news that apparently
the ceiling along the northeast side
of the work room was slipping. Af-
ter the office was closed Monday
evening Mr. Bennett and several
assistants decided to put a tempor-
ary support under the ceiling un-
til such time that department re-
pairmen could repair same.
While they were at work a por-
tion of the ceiling approximately
ten feet wide and twenty feet long
let go and dropped to the floor. Oth-
er workmen escaped but Mr. Ben-
nett was caught beneath a shower
of lime, plaster and steel netting
He was knocked to the floor and
only the sorting table and mail bag
supports, which broke the fall of
the debris, prevented more serious
injury.
The fall however ripped his shin
from the knee to the ankle.
Temporary supports were placed
under the ceiling at the break until
department repairmen can replace
the ceiling.
