Thursday, January 17, 1957 THE CLINTON CHRONICLE J. Pa*« Seven By SPECTATOR.. i COMMENTS on MEN AND THINGS Let us not authorize the Presi dent to use armed forces in the Middle East, or anywhere else. A dispatch of the Associated Press, quoting The New York Times, says; " “President Eisenhower is re ported considering asking Con gress for authority to use United States armed forces ‘as he deems /lecessary to maintain peace in the Middle East.’ Quoting ‘a reliable source,’ the dispatch from Washington said congressional leaders would be asked to give their views on ‘the possibility of getting congression al sanction for the President to use the armed services ... in ac cordance with his best judgment in the event of any aggression in the Middle East.’ The Times article, by James Reston, said the conference would be held at the White House next Tuesday. Secretary of State Dul les was expected to be' on hand. Dulles and the President met at the White House yesterday and discussed the Middle Eastern sit uation. But, said the newspaper account, ‘nothing was said about any decision’ to ask Congress for authority to use force if necessary in the Middle East. “Officials here’, the dispatch continued, ‘have become increas ingly disturber about the possi bility that trouble in Iraq, Syria, Egypt and Jordan may lead to further Soviet penetration of that part of the world. ‘This fear has grown since the weakening of British inlfuence in the Middle East as a result of the British-Israeli invasion of Egypt. ‘Consequently, administration officials have been discussing what action can be taken by the United States to make it clear that it does not intend to stana aside and watch a chaotic situa tion develop there to the benefit of the Soviet Union’.” We have spilled so much blood, maimed so many men, made so many widows and orphans, spent so many millions trying to re make the world that we should tiation' and soTeifin sanction of a' dation.

President Eisenhower is an ex cellent man and a true patriot, but he and his advisors are too prone to rush into agreements with foreign nations. Let the Congress re-assert its powers and restrain both the Ex ecutive and Judicial branches from further usurpations. And than let the Congress itself con fine itself to the scope prescribed by the Supreme Law of the Land. • * * Frequently I have commented on the splendid spirit pervading the fine textile community of Jo anna.

What of the lowly brick? Ana the brick bat? What is a brick bat? A piece of brick, an off shoot of a brick, you might say. You would hot call a man a brick ana call his son a bnck bat; however. Well, the humble brick is look ing up and all about, too. “At the 16-acre research cen ter in Geneva, 111., built and oper ated by the brick industry, engin- cers recently took the wraps off a giant new packaging machine. Guided by a maze of photoelec tric* cells, which flash orders to an intricate array of hydraulic lifting devices, the fantastic ap paratus is glared to assemble and pack up uJjlO.OOO bricks a day. Brick twiay has a variety Ot uses. The biggest chunk of pro duction, 40% or so, goes into pri vate homes. Another 23% is usea in pifblic schools. Factones, of fice buildings, hospitals, churches and social and recreational build ings account for another 20%; the remaining 17% finds its way into sewers, highways, bridges and public utilities. In all, new con struction in 1956, according to the Department of Commerce, will total $44 billion, up barely 3% from the 1955 mark. Home building, the industry’s biggest single market, w'ill show an es timated 9% decline, but while construction on the whole has not expanded greatly, brick has been ! capturing a greater share of the (market. Thus this year its use in J Fiorhes Actually has risen 15'- ' .over last year. Moreover, the 1 use Cif' brick in school, hosptiai and. industrial construction is running 7% ahead. The biggest prospects of the 1 brick makers offer a striking con- | trast to their drab past For a long time the industry was an ul tra-conservative. “Stick-in - the- mud’ business. Highly decentral ized, manufacturers, owing to the prohibitive cost of shipping their product very far, were confined in the main to local mrakets.. Forced to compete intensively-in these limitetj areas, few were abl^ to grow to any appreciable size. Moreover,-bnck-making, firmly established since the time of the ancients, lagged at least tne years behind the rest of U. S. industry in production methods. After World War II, the indus try was confronted by a serious competitive threat. New con struction techniques w'ere devel oped, and with them emerged new buildmg materials. To llus- trate, the trend in home building during the past decade has been toward ranch style 1 houses and other types of dwellings designed tor out of door living. Such homes feature large window spaces, thereby reducing the amount of brick masonry used. Again, com mercial architecture has taken to borrowing mass production tech niques, involving the use of pre fabricated walls of metal .and enamel. Faced with mounting eompe tition, the brick industry in re cent years has taken a long hard look at its position. And it has taken steps to reinforce it. For* j— ■ ; one thing, several compaii have diversified into other products. Despite these forays Fm to oth£r fields, most of.thp bricx manufacturers are still primarily in the bqsiness of making brick.

JOAN ROBB, Notary Public My commission expires at Pleasure of the Governor. THE RETAILER’S ,10 POINTS ARE: 1. Advertise regularly. Every issue of the paper takes my story to its readers. 2. I make every ad look like mine. Years ago I adopted a distinctive style and have stuck to it. I use plenty of white space; my ads are never hard to read. 3. 1 put into newspaper advertising a definite proportion of my jfross sales. I fix this at the befdnninjf of the year. My rule is to make it 3 per cent of the previous year’s j?ross, with more if special conditions justify it. 4. 1 brighten my ads with frequent illustrations—either humorous or practical. 5. I am careful never to over-emphasize. When I make claims, I back them up with reasons. Then when I really have^an unusual bargain people believe me when ‘whoop ’er up a little.” I 6. I think ady^ertising all the time. 1 buy goods that will advertise well. 7. I get good display for my ads*by seeing that the , copy is in the newspaper office in plenty of time. 1 do this by having a definite hour to write the copy. S. Whene\er possible. I carry nationally advertised goods that are advertised in my home paper. I fea ture theid. Sometimes they give me a smaller mar gin than fly-by-night concerns, but I find that I sell faster and make more money in the end. besides pleasing more customers. 9. I always' plan my window and counter displays to link up with my newspaper advertising. Each helps the other. 10. My salespeople back up my advertising. They often help with suggestions for it. and I try to see to it that they alwavs read it. * - FOR CONSISTENT RESULTS USE - The Chronicle “An AAA Newspaper Everybody Reads* ac inmuac m awMawwMimiMcwKnicxKXKXKNx^zvi^^aaaoocxx
