The street sweeper was used in the town of Portage prior to being bought last fall by the Milford town board. It will be used on the town’s 20 blocks of curbed streets and will pick up sand, beer cans, leaves that are not in large piles and other litter.

Tanzania — (Continued from page 1) from guides had to be double checked We drove through the Arab section of the city, ending up at the open air market. If you have ever visited such a market almost anywhere in this part of gvorld, they are much the . The stench is awful, and swarm over dried fish and commodities being offered for sale, but no one seems to mind too much The huge market was doing a thriving business, but it offered no inducement for us to linger long, once we had our quota of photographs. We drove up to the University of Dar es Salaam which has some 2.300 students, and visited a native village en route back to New Africa Hotel where we were staying. We also stopped along the road where skilled natives were making intricate ivory and ebony carvings. We made our usual purchases Life’s Tempo Slow We found the New Africa Hotel comfortable, although it is not the city’s finest. The Kilimanjaro Hotel is newer and more elaborate — and no doubt the rates are steeper. The rooms occupied by most of our group were air-conditioned and the floors of small-squared hardwood, well polished. In this very hot climate airconditioning is a must We found service in the hotel's dining room lacking, however Almost everyone complained >about service, as waiters delivered one item at a time to

one s table, making the task extremely difficult. Aside from that, they had difficulty soedkino English, and we spoke none of their native tongue. The food was good at the New Africa Hotel, most all of us agreed, but there just wasn’t much percentage in pressing for more rapid service On Sunday, things came to a halt in Dar es Salaam. Around the corner from our hotel was a Lutheran church and A Roman Catholic church Several from our group went to 9:30 a.m. Catholic Mass in Swahili, and reported the place was crowded to overflowing We, along with Kay Pfeiffer and Eleanor Carlson, went to 10 o’clock Mass in English, and aside from what we considered less than perfect acoustics in the huge cathedral, found it pleasant and satisfying. Meet U.S. Ambassador At the end of sac c*y lour on Saturday, we passed Oyster Bay. which our brochures described as beautiful, inviting, and so forth. We found it anything but this, but should be said the tide was out and the bav seemed anything but inviting to a would-be bather. ' This was one thing we had planned to do in the Indian Ocean at this point in our trip. We were told all swimming was probably out, due to the tide and certain infectious diseases. Dr. James Myers, a member of our group, advised us to stay away from the water, even the water at the Kilimanjaro Hotel —a real disappointment to several of us. Anyway, back to Oyster Bay. On Sunday night we were invited to a reception at the home of Mr and Mrs. Robert A. Rock-

weiler on Oyster Bay. Bob is the very able public affairs officer of the United States Information Service at Dar es Salaam. When we arrived, the tide was in and Oyster Bay lived up to the words of our brochures. The Rockweiler home was pleasant, and the young couple made members of our group feel like we had stepped back into a bit of the United States. Each time we have visited with U.S. officers abroad, we feel we have some very capable men on the scene representing our country. This was certainly the case here where we met with other Americans. A highlight at the Rockweiler home was meeting the United States Ambassador and Mrs. W Beverly Carter. Jr. Ambassador Carter is a negro who hails from Philadelphia. He is a former newspaperman and stands 6' 64”. He was an unsuccessful GOP candidate for congress in 1954, and was former editor of the Pittsburg (Pa.) Gazette, a black newspaper. We found him and his wife absolutely delightful.

We also met two young Africans who are with the Tanzania information service who had studied journalism at Indiana university. They were Anadet A. Rwegayura and Sam Mwambenja. And we met a writer and photographer from National Geographic Magazine who are spending about a year in Tanzania on a feature to appear in about a year. A Socialist Government An avowed aim of the Nyerere government is to socialize Tanzania as rapidly as possible, but with compensation. Commercial banks, food processors, manufacturing and trading firms and some leading sisal estates have been nationalized, as well as the English-language newspaper and import-export firms. Rental properties valued at more than $14,000 U.S. have been nationalized. En route to Tanzania, we flew from Malawi to Nairobi, Kenya, then to Mombasa. Kenya and on to Dar es Salaam. From Mombasa to Dar es Salaam we passed Mt. Kilimanjaro (height 19,340

feet) and over some of the largest farms in Tanzania. These, too, the government is nationalizing, and the dispossessed owners are taxed highly on monies received as compensation from the government. Then, they are not allowed to take very much out of the country, so it represents a sizable loss to them. One of our disappointments is not being able to visit the offshore island of Zanzibar, which was on our original itinerary. Transportation to and from the island is slow and uncertain, so perhaps it is just as well. We left Dar es Salaam for Nairobi with a feeling that trouble would certainly be brewing in this part of Africa before long. With General Idi Amin in Uganda calling for war against the white dominated nations of Mozambique, Rhodesia and South Africa, the clarion call appeared clear to the black-ruled nations we visited. The Chinese in the area are doing nothing to dispell this militant feeling, either. To our group of touring

Americans. Dar es Salaam was depressing. Hope didn’t seem to be running high for the natives, and yet the Americans with our mission here said the average Tanzanian is better off than under British rule. America is putting some $9 million in aid into Tanzania, almost all of it in helping these people increase their farm production. Our people here tell us it is money well spent. And, of course, being a humanitarian nation, we hope they are right.
