Mrs. Herman explained that the six children—all younger than six years--scampering around the house were all hers. Construction of the Aswan High Dam, which will be built In two stages over a period of ten years, will get underway in December following the recent approval by the United Arab Republic of final plans proposed by Soviet experts.

Currently, the Government is constructing an entire housing unit for workers and experts. A major project in President Nasser’s economic development program, the High Dam will increase the Egyptian. Region’s cultivated area by 1,300,000 acres. The new dam will hold 130 billion cubic meters of water—25 times the capacity of the present Aswan Dam. The High Dam will also enable conversion of 700,000 acres from basin irrigation to perennial irrigation, thereby allowing year round cultivation of this land, and an increase in the harvest yield of food. It is estimated that the yield of presently cultivated land will increase by 20 per cent due to better drainage. Tru-Tread Tire Co. U. S.
