From Agnes Miedel, Scottdale,
Penna.: I remember Monday
washday. Ma would sort clothes 1
Sunday evening, a pile of white, 1
colored clothes and dirty work
clothes. Tubs were taken down j
from the hooks on the back porch
where they hung from one Mon- j
day to another. One tub filled with
water to soak the white clothes
overnight with Sal Soda. The
boiler was placed on the coal
stove, filled with water, for use
Monday morning.
Ma would rise early, place the
soaked clothing in the boiler, chip
in some homemade lye soap,
swish the clothes around with a
stick, filling the whole house with
steam and the aroma of boiling
clothes. The clothes later were
placed in a hand washer and the
color clothes rubbed. Mom would
grumble to herself as she nibbed
Tommie’s socks between her
palms, “That kid must have run
through a pig pen without his
shoes.”
Lines were stretched, clothes
pins and props ready to hang the
first sheet before seven. Mom al
ways wondered if she would be
first in the neighborhood—or had
one of the neighbors “cheated”
and washed a few on Sunday to
have clothes on the line ten-to-
seven?
Everywhere one looked, you
could see lines of clothes, blowing
all day with the gentle wind, fresh
airy sheets to rest on at night,
baskets of dampened clothes to be
ironed Tuesday.
Today: washday every hour,
anytime at the laundromat. Slip
a dime in the slot, flip the lever,
pick up your purse, shop for a
half-hour, return, transfer clothes
to dryer; in another half-hour,
fold, wearable clothes. What a
change!

WORLD OUTDOORS
DECiYUSE fishermen are fisher-
men the world over, it is not
so far from California to Brazil
as one might imagine. If a good
will exchange between the two
are successful, the distance won’t
be shortened, yet anglers in Bra
zil will know something about
California’s great trout fishing
and Americans may one day tan
gle with Brazil’s bagre catfish.
The trout-catfish swap is an ex
ample of the constant effort by
fish and game authorities to pro
vide better fishing tomorrow. The
average angler gives little thought
to the fact that other people work
so he may fish.
In mid-April, a California De
partment of Fish and Game rep
resentative, using his own vaca
tion time, flew to Rio (as a guest
of VARIG Airlines of Brazil) as
“guardian” of a shipment of 100,-
000 California rainbow trout eggs.
He cared for these eggs during
the flight and until they reached
a hatchery at Petropolis, some 60
miles from Rio.
The resulting trout will be reared
and stocked as brood fish for nat
ural reproduction in streams in
central and southern Brazil.
California also hopes to help
Brazil introduce both trout and
salmon into its waters, as a rec
reation benefit, to aid tourism,
and for the protein food that would
^result if a commercial salmon
fishery can be established in
Brazil.
While in Brazil, the Californian
made arrangement for shipment
to California, this fall, of a num
ber of Brazilian bagre marine
catfish. Reaching a weight of 70
lbs., the bagre catfish thrives in
Brazilian ocean bays and sloughs
similar to some Southern Califor
nia coastal waters now populated
primarily by such undesirable fish
as skates, rays, guitar-fish and
angel sharks.

Is this your case? A dilemma at age 65
H ERE, it seems to me, is a
story that pretty well forms
the common denominator of re
tirement in this spring of 1962.
It is the financial situation of a
nice, intelligent couple coming up
tc retirement. It is not a rich
couple and not a poor one. But a
couple Like the couple that lives
down the street.
In the words of the wife this is
the situation:
“I am six years younger than
my 64-year-old husband and his
retirement, which comes early
next year, has me worried.
“We have always lived in an
apartment. This has been a pleas
ant comfortable home for 20
years, and at present we are pay
ing $100 a month for rent and
utilities.
“We would be very happy to
remain here but our retirement
income will total only $210 a
month. Therefore, we can’t, not
with city food prices and such.
We think we had better give up
the apartment and move either
to the southwest or the southeast
corners of the U.S.
“Our $210 a month comes from
my husband’s Social Security and
his company pension. Other as
sets we have are as follows: a
$6,000 life insurance policy on my
husband with his company, a
$5,000 private life insurance policy
on my husband’s life, another
$2,000 insurance policy on my
husband’s life, a $1,000 insurance
policy on my life.
“Because we went through the
great depression we have tried
very hard to build up some sav
ings As a result we have $5,000
in stocks, $8,000 in a savings ac
count and $8,150 in U. S. bonds.
“I could use some advice in
two areas. (1) Is there any way
we can manage to stay where we
are, or (2) if we must move far
away, how can we do it without
tremendous expense?”
Look first at all that life insur
ance, which will cost part of the
$210 income. The wife certainly
doesn’t need a life insurance policy
at her age because even if she
weren’t six years younger than
her husband, statistics say she
would outlive him. The husband
has a total of $13,000 in life insur
ance. That would be nice for hie
widow to have but at age 62 she
can start collecting a Social Se
curity benefit on her own. Can she
also get part of her husband’s pen
sion after he dies? If so, and if
the total is enough for her to live
on, the only life insurance the hus
band should keep is enough to put
him respectfully under the ground.
Excess life insurance at retire
ment age* can be useful. In most
cases, despite what people tell
you, it is not.
Now for those savings. They
total $21,150. Invested in conserv
ative stocks or bonds nt 4 per cent
they would yield $70 a month.
This added to the pension will
give $280 a month, which is far
more money than most couples
now going into retirement have.
It would enable the couple to re
main in a $100-a-month apart
ment and get by fairly well.

WASHINGTON AND
"SMALL BUSINESS”-
ByC. WILSONHARDER
The Twentieth Century for
mula on how to succeed in pol
itics without really trying is
to find out what a large bloc of
voters would like free, then
figure out way to make them
think they are getting it free.
* * *
This bast-
caUy explains
the strike of
doctors in the
Cana dian
province of
Saskatche
wan against
the socialist
government
of Premier
Woodrow C. W. Harder
Lloyd which had forced into
law a medicare program. How
this crisis wUl be resolved is
still » moot question.
* * *
Some U. S. newspapers with
apparent leanings to left are
appaUed at the action of the
doctors. Yet from all reports,
majority of the people In this
Canadian province are quite
bitter toward government for
creating such a crisis.
* * *
There Is a sobering thought
here. If the U. S. government
follows a present proposal to
bring a portion of American
medical prac^ce under the con
trol of bureaucratic direction,
there is no predicting what the
American doctors will do.
• * *
If they should adopt the stra
tegy of the Canadian medical
men, it is a certainty that they
and the American Medical
Association will be more bit
terly attacked than they are at
present for merely opposing
the drive to sacrifice the integ
rity of American medicine for
political expediency.
eve
Most men do not primarily
© Nitloail Fxiwxtlon of Indupundent Builnw
enter medicine for monetary
gain. There has to be a great
humanitarian impulse to cause
a young man to give op many
of the golden years of young
manhood in hard grinding
study. And of course, between
the cost of his education, and
the income he could otherwise
earn, the doctor has invested
$30,000 before he can even start
to practice.
* * *
Yet even today there is a
snide attempt to infer that the
opposition of doctors to medi
care is due to selfishness.
* * * .
Unfortunately, the doctors
are in a small minority, thus
prime target for demagoguery.
* * *
After all, medical men devote
their lives to the mysteries of
healing not vote chasing. To
paraphrase a famous saying of
Benjamin Franklin, “a doctor
between two politicians is like
a fish between two cats.”
• • •
Thus, in its proper light,
the battle is between integ
rity and insidions socialism.
For doctors on the average are
people of the highest integrity,
because obstacles young man
must overcome to become a
doctor comprises most brutal
selection system yet devised.
* * *
There has been no Billie Sol
Estes scandals in the conduct
of American medicine.
* * *
And doctors, with a psycho
logical insight in human na
ture, know that once the bu
reaucratic mind that set up the
Estes affair gets any measure
of control over medicine, it will
be disastrous to the nation's
health. Cuban masses cheered
Castro when he promised land
reform . . . but he gave them
food rationing.
