The $200,000,000 bond issue, about three - quarters sub- scribed, has covered most of the cost of the two forces since the middle of last year. No as- sessments for them have been levied since then.

The weather was good and the sky was clear Wednesday, although the road was slightly wet from an early rain RIVER BREAKS UP The spring break-up is just taking place in the mountain- ous, nearly uninhabited area where the bridge stands. There is still five to six feet of snow in places and the river is high because of melting snow from the mountains. Normally, the water would be only about 10 feet deep. The collapse of the bridge, built in 1955, recalled the col- lapse of a span of the Duplessis Bridge near Trois - Rivieres, Que., in 1951, when five were! killed.

KATMANDU, Nepal (Reuters) Climbers from the United States expedition have made a double assault on Mount Everest, with separate parties reaching the summit of the world's highest mountain from two directions, it was learned here today. Thomas\Hornbein, 32, an William Unsoeld, 36, made mountaineering history Wednes- day by reaching the. 29,028-foot summit by the previously uncon- quered west ridge route. Radio reports from the expe- dition's base camp today said Barry Bishop, 30 and Luther Jerstad, 26, had earlier in the day reached the summit by the conventional south col route. The teams had hoped for a true 'summit' meeting with a rendezvous on the Himalayan "roof of the world." But they failed to link up at the top with each other. The radio reports said all four climbers spent the night at an altitude of -more than 27,000 feet without sleeping bags or! oxygen. The reports said they were all well and all were now at the expedition's south col camp. Bishop and Jerstad reached the summit at 3 p.m. Wednes- last year" will arise.

Mountaineering circles in New Delhi said Hornbein's and Un- soeld's climbing of the Virgin Ridge, completing the first ma- jor Himalayan traverse, was "'a fantastic feat." Hoenbein is from San Diego, Calif., and Unsoeld is from Cor- vallis, Ore. Climbing with them as a sup- port party were Barry Corbet, 26, of Jackson, Wyo.; Allen Au- ten, 36, of Denver, Colo.; Rich- ard Emerson, 37, of Cincinnati, Ohio, and several Sherpa port- ers, Expedition member James Whittaker, 32, of Redmond, Wash., was the first American ever to climb Everest when he reached the summit May 1, in any Local 222 election.

A commodity that in 1961 was worth two cents, and which was excluded from the United States except under rigid quota sys- tems, is being pursued with ar- dor at about 12 cents, That's what a pound of raw foreign sugar costs at dockside New York these days. The American Sugar Refin- ing Company announced Wed- nesday the latest increase in the wholesale price of refined sugar: By $1.75 to $16.80 a 100 pounds in the northeast, The price was about $10 in January. The five-pound bags of sugar that sold for about 55 cents in the supermarket last year are tagged at 69 cents and up. This is below the newest wholesale price -- that's how fast things are happening. VATICAN CITY--Pope John, strengthened by a reported ma- jor blood transfusion and a full night's rest, stood in his studio window for about three minutes today -- Ascension Day -- and blessed a crowd of 15,000 per- sons in St. Peter's Square. He looked vastly improved and a high Vatican source said that he was, that the blood transfusion had been "'a real tonic." This informant said the Pope - appeared rallying well from his most recent relapse. The Fope stood at the open window, bathed by a pale sun, for about three minutes. He re- cited a prayer in a strong vi- brant voice. But he made no remarks, as he often does ow such occasions, As soon as he appeared, a tiny figure in white to those standing in the square, applause rose. Many motorists blew their horns.
