predominantly composed of Pathan and Punjari troops from West Pakistan to intervene in the predominantly Bengali Eastern province and suppress widespread demands there for political autonomy. Since then, the army's actions have led to widespread loss of life, property, damage, economic dislocation, and the flight of an estimated 7 million refugees into adjoining India.

Girl Got What She Wanted Severed Arm Reattached LOS ANGELES (P- Anne Shelly says she's a spoiled teenlage brat who always gets her way. When her left arm was severed by an airplane propeller July 22 she knew it would be saved. "I wanted my arm and I have it," she says. Miss Shelly, celebrating her 16th birthday today, is in Orthopedic Hospital recovering from surgery to restore the arm which involved sewing together four major nerve sheaths, Ann's arm was severed four inches below the shoulder.

"I've never been sick," she said in an interview. "Being sick is a waste of time. I have no bad feelings. It happened. It's fixed.

That's about i.t" The Sherman Oaks girl, who said she was sure the night of the accident that arm would be saved, credits her confidence to a faith in God. "I have always considered myself a sort of spoiled brat because I've always gotten what I want." Anne, daughter of a television writer, was with a friend at Van Nuys Airport who was showing her a plane. "I walked into the propeller," she says. "It was night and I couldn't see it. If you're around horses you don't walk behind them and if you know anything about planes you don't walk into propellers." The friend, Davis Lasky, 18, had taxied the aircraft down the runwayy and Anne got out of the plane.

Doctors say it could be two' years before they can determine the success of the surgery. "Nerves can grow at a rate of an inch month," said Dr. Kenneth Head. "The nerves must regenerate. How completely they do so will determine how much movement she will have in the arm and fingers." Bill Bailey Goes to Grave 72 Years After His Death Grave Death (Bill) Bailey, an itineryears, four months, and barn behind the loincloth, since he was emas a demonstration of was the first person to be sorry to see him slip into the past.

"He's been a part of Waterloo for as long as most of us can remember." The grandson of the man who embalmed Bailey said 1 he made the decision to bury him. "It was a scientific said John Genung, "and after 72 years I think it's been proven successful. There was no reason to keep him around any longer. GENUNG'S grandfather, Charles Genung, conducted experiments in th 1890s to find an efficient and practical method of embalming. It was he who developed the arterial method used on Bailey.

Bill Bailey was buried in the Genung family plot at Maple Grove cemetery. Fifty feet away lies the grave of Charles Genung. "It seemed like the only Christian thing to do," John Genung said. "After all, this man touched four generations of my family." Million East Pakistan Deaths Seen NEW YORK Sunday (UPI) An East Pakistani who recently resigned from the staff of Pakistan's embassy in Washington has warned that as many as 15 million Bengalis may die of starvation as a result of the Pakistani civil war. Abulmaal A.

Muhith, a former economic counselor in the Pakistani embassy and a onetime deputy secretary of the cabinet under Pakistani President Yahya Khan, said in a television program broadcast today that a breadkown of internal transportation in East Pakistan and a smaller-than-usual harvest could mass starvation. MUHITH said, "In East Pakistan today, the extent of human misery is simply incomprehensible, leaving aside the death toll and destruction of property on account of armed strife. The specter of famine is horrifying. Total disruption of the communication network, coupled with the gripping sense of terror, virtually has halted all economic activies and movement of food, grains, and other Muhith said a famine in 1943, caused by dislocation during World War II, took a toll of between 2.5 and 5 million lives. "This time," he said, "the death toll is going to be multiplied by three times.

That means between 7.5 and 15 million people people will starve within the next three months." MUHITH added, "Instead of guaranteeing the security of life and property of its citizens, the government of Pakistan has made the fact of staying alive the greatest luxury in East Pakistan. "Atrocities that this government is committing in East Pakistan, the frenzy with which it is driving Bengalis out of the country, and the suppression that it is making of its dissent in both wings of the country not only forfeit the right of the government to a place in a civilized world but also make it responsidismemberment of the country." WATERLOO. N. Y. (UPI) George ant farmhand, was buried Friday, 72 seven days after he died of apoplexy.

Bill Bailey had lain on a table in a Funeral Home, covered only by a balmed. Since 1899 Bill Bailey served arterial embalming. It was thought he embalmed exclusively with terial injections. THIRTY PERSONS gathered for a brief service at the funeral home, but only one shed a tear for Bill Bailey. Mrs.

Arvilla Warner was the only mourner who said she remembered Bailey when he was alive. Mrs. Warner, now in her late 80s, said that as a little girl she knew Bailey as a big man who used to do odd jobs for farmers in this portion of the Finger Lakes region. When he died, Bailey was said to be 6-feet-2 and weighed 200 pounds. But the ashen body buried Friday weighed only 48 pounds and measured 5-feet-11.

BILL BAILEY was dressed in a gray suit, a white shirt, and a tie. His face was blackened by 72 years of dust which settled on his body as long as he was on exhibit. On Thursday 460 persons passed by the walnut-finished casket in which he lay for one last look at a man who died before most of them were born. Mrs. Betty Auten, Waterloo, a newspaper woman, sent a sympathy card.

Mrs. Auten said she was glad Bill Bailey finally was given a "good and decent burial," but, she said, she was Farm Units Push Dairy Promotion Two of Wisconsin's major general farm organizations have agreed that state dairy farmers should push for dairy promotion and research through the Milk Advertising and Promotion Program (MAPP). Gilbert Rohde, Greenwood, president of the Wisconsin Farmers Union, and Neelian Nelson, Argyle, president of the Wisconsin Farm Bureau Federlation, Saturday announced the unprecedented meeting and statement of agreement. An estimated 59,000 Wisconsin dairy farmers have one month left in which to vote for the $3.5 million a year program that would provide mandatory farmer support for promotion and research. Nelson and Rohde agreed that the MAPP proposal was essential for Wisconsin's image as the number one dairy state.

"In addition, it is an attempt to strengthen markets for milk used for manufactured dairy products," the statement said. The two farm leaders noted the decline in per capita consumption of dairy products and the growing share of the dairy market that's being taken over by substitutes.

New York Times Exclusive tary reprisals," one informant said. Informants stressed that the UN force will concern itself primarily with helping the East Pakiston authorities alleviate the threat of starvation and disease and with rehabilitating homes and shelters for millions who have either fled into the countryside or whose homes have been wrecked.

They also will help Pakistan restore communications and remobilize the province's private fleet of 40,000 river boats and 10,000 trucks.
