Modem English Alphabet :

Is Seen Possible This Year

LEGAL SQUABBLE The alphabet project was hung mp for six years while the mu-

action that # could not be car- rie? out as specified. Would - be language reformens launched an appeal, but before it was heard in 1957 a compromise agreement was reached whereby the alpha- bet. project received £8,300 from the estate.

By this time the value of the estate.bad risen to £716,000. as royalties. kept coming in from Shaw’s works. The biggest con- tribution came- from My Fair Lady, a musical! version of Pygmalion, that has earned about £250,000 in royalties since it first opened three years ago.

When the will was eventually settled in 1957, the enlarged es- tate was divided among the Brit- ish Museum, the Royal Academy and.the National Gallery, but a spokesman at the public trustee's office refuses to say if royalties will continue to, go to these bene- ficiaries. “‘We consider this a private affair and do not disclose details,” he said.

NO FAST CHANGE

Although the new alphabet is expected to be put in writing some time this year, nobody ex- pects it to get widespread. usage for a long time. Language ex- perts have said it would take generations to change over to an entirely new way of writing. And the trustees office says this new alphabet will have little resem blance to the existing one.

When the office called for de- signs a year ago it said that, besides having at least 40 letters, the alphabet must save time, en- engy and paper; it must be con- venient. to write and easy to read. The practical problems of typography must: also be taken into “account.

The spokesman says.it is “quite remarkable” tihat 450° peo- ple entered the contest. He also says the experts studying the en- tries are “quite amazed” at the work involved.

Stock Market Drops Again .

NEW YORK (AP)—The ‘stock market underwent its second straight weekly decline as a cau- tious mood prevailed on Wali Street last week.

The fall in prices, however, was de-emphasized by light volume. ~

The four - day trading week, shortened by the Good Friday hol- iday, generated turnover of only 12,876,510 shares.

The small tarnover came in sharp contrast with the three prior weeks when transactions were at the heaviest rate since last October. It contrasted, too, ‘with usually big volume of 11,-

i The steels were unsettled by the fact that record weekly output was slated to shade off and also by weakness in scrap prices. Cop- pers gave ground on recent de- clines in copper futures and soft- ness in the price of copper scrap. The most active issues on the New York exchange were: Benguet, unchanged at 1% on 375,800 shares: Minute Maid, up 3/8 at 19 7/8; American Motors, up 2% at 35; Hupp Corp., up % at 6%; and Avro off 3-8 at 13%.

Functional Styling!

Costs less to keep like new. Practical truck operators know that ‘fancy’ styling just deesn’t pay. Exaggerated body lines, complicated grilles and ‘flashy’ chrome trim add nothing to a truck’s performance —but they can add a lot to repair and maintenahce expense.
