Bicentennial project fizzles in Philadelphia report
AP reports Pennsylvania funded Father Guy Merveille's Congress of World Unity with about 250000 for a world unity conference that may never occur. Lt. Gov. Ernest Kline criticizes the project as a good idea that went sour after the state recovered only 30000 when it pulled out. Merveille traveled to 75 countries to find a common denominator while exhausting a 44000 travel budget and living in a 320 monthly penthouse. He claims professionals helped run it, but funds are gone and he lives on bread and water.
