WASHINGTON (UPI) - Lt.
Gen. Arthur G. Trudeau, the
Army’s research chief, said to-
day the State Department had' or-
dered changes in his speeches
which gave him "cause for
wonder about the motivation in-
the city took over the local distri-
bution system. “We have had-a
33 1/3 per cent increase on peak
demands,” Lockett said, “and we
expect further growth in the imme-
diate future.” He noted that some
60 new homes are being built in
Brenham each year, Blinn College
is constructing two big new build-
ings, a new high school will be
built, the new Steadley Spring Fac-
tory is under construction and the
Brenham Cotton Mill has increas-
.. edits consumption greatly sinee ks
expansion. "The present line feed-
lag Brenham will just not meet our
needs of the future and we are go-
ing to have to have a larger line,”'
the mayor said.
