While steps are being taken to rectify the situation, great care must be taken to bolster confidence in the dollar. The most effective step in this direction would be a balanced national budget and a systematic reduction of the debt, which now exceeds the combined total of all other nations. SIMULTANEOUSLY, we must be cautious about making changes in our reserve require ments which would weaken con fidence in the dollar. A repeal or reduction of gold reserve re quirements might be viewed as opening the door to unbraked inflation, thereby increasing the foreign demand for gold. ANY PERMANENT solution to the problem must include methods by which we can ac quire more gold by purchase and the elimination of our balance of payments deficit. CURRENT U. S. difficulties in purchasing gold stocks are not all due to the margin of the world gold price over the fixed U. S. price of $35 per ounce. Sales of gold to the U. S. gov ernment are now encumbered by a mountain of red tape, much of which should be eliminated by Congress. Studies should also be made to determine how much more gold could be acquired at the legal price by extending cap ital gains tax treatment on all transactions where gold is bought by U. S. citizens for resale to the U. S. THERE ARE A number of steps that can be taken to help overcome our balance of pay ments deficit. THE MOST OBVIOUS step is a steep reduction in foreign aid. Commendably, the Presi dent’s request for foreign aid funds appears to be a record low this year — $3.38 billion How ever, a part of the reduction results from the fact that the request for annual contributions ($250 million) to the Inter- American Development Bank is being made separate from the regular foreign aid bill. Reduc tions in foreign aid must be real, not illusory. In addition, they must be deeper, eliminating altogether aid to anti-American and pro-Communist nations. OUR SUPPORT of the U N. and other international organi- rations must be limited to pay ment of our legal dues and as sessments. We must end our habitual practice of making “voluntary” contributions from contingency funds, and, by spe cial actions, to bail such organi zations out of financial predica ments caused by non-payment of dues by other nations. “COUNTERPART FUNDS” must he put to better use. These are foreign loca! currencies which have little exchange value. They are used to repay U. S. loans or to pay for U. S. gov ernment exports, and, by agree ment, must be kept and spent by the U. S. in the country of origin, and for specified pur poses to which the foreign gov ernment agrees. Agreements must be obtained for new and helpful uses for such funds, such as paying for U. S. pur chases in the particulai country, support of U. S. military forces in the foreign country, U. S. contributions to international banking institutions, and for any foreign aid to the particu 1 r I country which is found to be | essential. ANOTHER OVER-DUE ac tion is to demand payment of (debts owed the U. S. by foreign ! nations. Large debts are due the i U. S. from even the largest j countries, such as Great Britain, France, and the U.S.S.R. For instance, France recently de manded and received $150 mil lion in U. S. gold while owing us $6.3 billion. DOMESTICALLY, several things can be done to improve the situation: (1) A program should be launched to encourage Americans to “see America first,” and keep tourist dollars at home. (2) Also, our own tour ist attractions should be further encouraged to entice foreign tourists. (3) Special tax incen tives, similar to those used in Western European nations, could be enacted to stimulate small businesses in the U. S. to compete for foreign markets. (4) Inflation must be checked, and the line held on prices and wages in order that U. S prod ucts can be more competitive in price with foreign goods, both at home and abroad. (5) By far the biggest potential for im provement. however, lies in our foreign trade policies, which 1 will discuss next week. Sincerely, ‘SJxjuu-IsYYSJ&TlJ.

Wur pass pass From Mrs. Gertrude Shaw, Pendleton, Oregon: 1 remember when I was a small child we moved to Eastern Oregon and settled on a dry land farm. My father put in a wheat crop which was almost a failure. After completing the wheat harvest, he went about 50 miles away to haul wheat. He didn’t return for some time and our groceries were nearly gone, so mother boiled wheat for us. Not knowing that we had nothing else, we children thought it was delicious. We had no way to get to town and mother was all alone with five small children. I often think how difficult things are now. Today, children have every toy conceivable—ice cream cones, hot dogs, hamburgers, until there are no treats. When we were small, these things were unknown. My sister and I had rag dolls—dolls made of weeds and sticks. The boys had stick “horses.” Our swing was a board fastened to ropes and hung from beams on the porch or a tree limb. Everything was a “treat” for us—an apple or an orange cut into pieces so we could each have a taste. We never heard of ice cream—yet I still think of those with longing.

DESK I k j VwwOCR CUTTOmWfiUTOASE Seal Society explains fund raising drive (The following information concerning the independent fund raising drive for the Crippled Children’s Society to be con ducted here in the near future was submitted by the local chapter of the Crippled Child ren’s Society.) Why an independent Easter Seal Campaign? That is a question we hear now and then, and one that we want to answer. We in America are jea’ous of our independence, our right to determine how we earn our mon ey, how we spend it. We like to know when our fellow Americans have problems and then find ways to help them. We like to look for new and better ways for all of us to live. That is the spirit of the volun tary health movement that has put our nation in the forefront of all nations in seeking and cre ating better health and better lives for ourselves and our neighbors. As Alexis de Tocqueville, the great French social philosopher, observed: “These Americans are the most peculiar people in the world. You will not believe me when I tell you how they behave. In a local community in their country a cit izen may conceive of some need that is not being met. What does he do? He goes across the street and discusses it with his neigh bor. Then what happens? A com mittee comes into existence and the committee begins functioning in behalf of that need.” The Easter Seal Society advan ces several specific reasons for its stand on an independent cam paign. “It assures the right of res ponsible local citizens to deter mine for themselves the direction in which rehabilitation services for crippled children and adults shall go; to undertake innovations in service; to seek new areas of treatment; to encourage forward moving activity; to stimulate growth and expansion. “It assures control of vital re habilitation programs at every level - National, state and local - by informed and strongly motiva- FOR AND ABOUT TEENAGERS By C« D. Smith Parents Want Teenager To Be Like Brother THE WEEK'S LETTER: “I have a problem with my parents. My older brother, who goes to college next year, was “Mr. Every thing” in high school. He belonged to nearly everything, was class president and most popular stu dent. The only thing he and I have in common is that my school grades are as good as his were. I am shy. I don’t belong to any organizations. I prefer to spend my time reading or indulging in one of several hobbies. I am self- conscious when around people. I want to be friendly and popular, but I don’t know where to begin. My parents make things worse by always telling me what a great big success my brother made in high school.” OUR REPLY: There is no great secret one can reveal to point the way to popularity. But, there is the old truth that “the best way to have a friend is to be one.” The boy or girl who is friendly and cheerful to everyone with whom he or she comes in contact will make friends. And, making friends is like doing anything else—one has to work at it to be successful. People don’t just come running and say, “I want to be your friend.” The easiest way to overcome being self-conscious is to develop an interest in other people. Get ting along with others is like learning to swim—you have to get your feet wet. You can’t learn anything sitting on the bank or watching someone else take the plunge. Be friendly and cheerful, and people will like you. Show an in terest in people, in their likes and dislikes, and more times than not, you have made a friend. If you have a teenage problem you want to discuss, or an observation to xrtake. address your letter to FOR AND ABOUT TEENAGERS. COMMUNITY AND SUB URBAN PRESS SERVICE. FRANK FORT, KY.

Miss Cromer teaches English, science and social studies to fifth graders at Boundary Street. Her preparation for teaching elemen tary education was done at New berry College, from which she re ceived the Bachelor of Arts de gree, and Winthrop College, where she did postgraduate work. She has 145 hours professional train ing in elementary education, 18 of them graduate courses. Born in Newberry County, a daughter of Mr. and Mrs. Silas J. Cromer, Miss Cromer now lives at 1116 Keroes Ave. She is a member of Central Methodist Church and is active in its various organizations; a former member of Delta Kappa Gamma teachers’ honorary sorority; a member of the school PTA and Drayton Rutherford Chapter of the Un ited Daughters of the Confeder acy. For a number of years she was leader of the elementary group of Eloise Welch Wright Chapter, Children of the Confed eracy. In addition to her other duties at Boundary, she assists with se lection of fihus for each month of the sclyrtastic year on prim ary and elementary levels. Miss Cromer is active in her professional organizations, being a member of local, state and na tional education associations and the Newberry County Department of Classroom Teachers. Her hobbies are growing flow ers, reading, visiting the sick and shut-in, and, as those who have known her will testify, doing things for others. ted boards of trustees. It assures freedom to determine budgets in response to needs of the crippled in each community rather than in relation to the fin ancial requirements of a number of other agencies and the ability of a separate uncommitted fund raising organization to provide for all. It fosters flexibility, accept ance of new techniques, creative approaches through legislation, in volvement in research for demon stration projects. It attracts dynamic volunteer action, interest, support and op portunity for personal participa tion, at the same time creating in the volunteer a sense of person al responsibility and commitment to the successful financial oper ation of his agency. We believe these are valid rea sons for an independent Easter Seal campaign and we urge sup port of the Society and its Easter Seal campaign, the statement concludes.
