Reds Plan to Modernize Highway System

The Kremlin plans to build by 1960 a paved road network for European Russia modeled on American highways. Russia's road system lags behind the United States, with 125000 miles of hard surfaced roads and 445000 vehicles in 1955, far below US production. Major projects include Moscow to Gorky and a Belaya Tserkov Odessa link, plus the Moscow-Leningrad highway completed recently to connect Russia’s two largest cities.

McLevy Justifies City Stand Against U S Loan Repayment

Former Mayor Jasper McLevy explained the city did not owe repayments on a 1981 Federal Redevelopment loan as the Plaza clearance was completed with municipal funds. The Common Council, at Mayor Treesco’s urging, voted to pay the $15,906 balance despite his concerns about jeopardizing future redevelopment proposals. McLevy said terms required repayment only if the city pursued federal redevelopment with municipal funding. He noted delays and negotiations led to a strictly municipal project. Also, Albert H. Ruwel announced plans for all grand lodge officers to attend Connecticut Masons events.
