(Continued from Page 1) The difference will be paid by profits from the resale of con- demned properties. the city also has the possibility of bringing their share of costs to about $200,- 000 through some road construc- tion in the area. The most important problem now facing the Council, Mayor Eldersveld said, is that of arriving at a good solution to the reloca- tion problem. The people who are displaced, he said, must be provided with safe, sanitary housing which is within their income (i.e., not costing more than 25 per cent of their income.) Assumes Responsibility After the decision to file the application the Council passed a resolution saying, in effect, that the complete and final responsi- bility for seeing that all displaced, persons receive safe, adequate housing lies with the Council. Much of the dissent during the public hearing was over the ques- tion of relocating displaced fami- lies and exactly who would be dis- placed. George Wiedemier, a former member of the Human Relations Commission, objected to the proj- ect on the grounds it was not needed, it was not wanted, the area was not blighted to begin with, it destroyed initiative for the residents to improve their own homes and it hurts business. 'Wants Urban Renewal' Mrs. Willa Yates, a resident of the area, said 'I live next to a junkyard and, needless to say, we want Urban Renewal. We (Ne- groes) are tired of being suspect- ed, neglected and rejected. If we had Urban Renewal where I was born, I'd be better off today." "I live in one of the condemned shacks," Mrs. Emmy Jones said, "and I want Urban Renewal." The vote on the resolution to file an application came at about 12:15 a.m. today. The entire meeting was broad- cast live on WUOM, the Univer- sity's broadcasting service.

But SGC afronting the biblical translator to - -een dhis Hillel audience Wednesday has not taken advantage of this interest, he continued.3 The FUB should have been stressed as a "sister university,". he continued, with films of the two' universities and their countries traded and shown on each campus. More can be gained from a con- tinuing exchange program which becomes traditional than a one-' year proposition, Krohn continued, pointing out that the FUB still thinks of the University as its sister. Cites Advantages He cited campus interest in go- ing to Germany, and the large number of students taking German as advantages to the FUB ex- change over a suggested one with the American University of Beirut. Miss Holland, on the other hand, said the exchange with Lebanon seemed to her more valuable de- spite the advantages cited by Krohn and the fact that two could be sent to the PUB for the cost of sending one to Beirut. Lebanon is a critical area, she argued, where public opinion re- garding the United States is still One of the biggest problems, Prof. Speiser said, is the translat- Other Versions In 1611, the authorized King James version was published: British and American revisions of .his edition appeared as late as the 19th century, Prof. Speiser noted. He remarked that the King James version "cannot suffice" for readers of the 20th century, be- cause it represented the status of knowledge about the Bible and its peoples 300 years ago. Because the Bible contains lit- erary, historical and cultural in- formation as well as religious in- formation, the older versions of the Bible are not enough for pres- ent-day readers, he continued. Another objection to the older version of the Bible is the change in the English language itself, which renders obscure many ex- pressions in the classic Bible to present-day readers. Prof. Speiser cited the "contro- versial" Revised Standard Version, of the Bible, which was offered to the public in 1952, as the an- swer to this demand for a trans- lation suited to the modern world.
