Are My Ribs Hurting Your Elbow? One of the world s problems of prime importance today is that of the rapidly increasing populations in the underdeveloped countries of the world. While the problem is not limited entirely to what are commonly referred to as the poorer countries, it is of greater world significance in those counties than elsewhere. For centuries, much of Asia and Africa has had the world’s highest birth rates. At the same time, these areas also had the highest death rates, so that their populations, while slowly increasing, was not doing so at alarming rates. Recent medical developments have made it easy for governments to do something about the death rates. DDT has helped control mosquitoes and flies, and thus reduced the spread of disease. The importance of pure water has also been recognized, and relatively cheap methods developed to assure most people of bacteriafree drinking and cooking water. And finally, the massproduction of anti-biotics have again reduced the disease and death rates. While it is easy for governments to control death rates, it is none of their concern about the birth rate. That birth rate was high for countless generations, to assure the family of enough children to help with the work and care for the parents in their old age. It will not be reduced in the period of ten years it took to drastically reduce the death rate. But population explosions in underdeveloped countries tend to make them even poorer. There are more mouths to feed, but land is limited and fertilizer and machinery cost money that is not available, so the production of food does not increase in proportion to the population. There,are more laborers for jobs, but since there is little capital, there are no more factories to furnish jobs. No jobs and no food cause unrest, and unrest, with the Russians ready to capitalize, causes revolutions that can lead to large-scale wars. There are some answers. One is education. Educated people throughout the world tend to have smaller families, and do more for the children. Another is help from richer countries. Help not in the form of outright money, but help in the form of factories that make jobs and payrolls. The population problem is a definite problem, but not one that is unsolvable. But it is a problem that will take the serious study of all the governments of the world. An encouraging aspect is that several countries have already started to make progress in leveling off the birth and death rates.

Radio Comedy Has Moved To Records By VERNON SCOTT UP! Hollywood Correspondent HOLLYWOOD <UPD - Cerl Reiner, comedian-writer-director, says radio comedy isn’t dead — it has moved to records. The facts back him up, too. Music stores are plentifully stocked with recordings of young comedians doing their nightclub acts and other material that would have been a riot on radio 15 years ago. Record collectors can pick up discs by comics Shelly Berman, Mort Sahl, Dave Gardner, Jonathon Winters, Bob Newhart and Dayton Allen, to name a few. Reiner has a comedy platter on the market himself, "2,000 years with Oarl Reiner and Me 1 Brooks.’’ Why the rash of laugh records? Substitute For Radio "It’s the only medium for young comedians to get the kind of exposure they used to get on radio,” the balding former straight man for Sid Caesar said. "The established guys like Jack Benny, Bob Hope and Milton Berle don’t bother with records. There isn’t enough money in it for them to bother.” Each record amounts to a halfhour comedy show. And as IJeiner suggested, householders can become "producers” by simply inviting guests to their livingrooms and playing the records. “I do it all the time,” Carl grinned. "I play the records and they laugh it up. I’ve built parties around Newhart’s records, but it doesn’t hurt sales. My friends go out and buy the platters and throw parties of their own. Thank Mort Sahl "We all have Mort Sahl to thank for the present trend. I don’t 'know if it’s just a fad. After all, the records cost four or five dollars apiece, and that ain’t hay.” Actually, talking comedy records go back to antiquity in the recording business. One of the first was made by Will Rogers back in the days when gramaphones were hand-cranked. “Sometimes it’s better to hear a comedian on record than to see him in a nightclub or on television,” Reiner went on. "Like in radio, the listener uses his imagination. And you can always play the record over again to enjoy the parts you like best. “These records are the best
Discusses 1962 Senator Contest
By EUGENE J. CADOU United Press International INDIANAPOLIS (UPD—lnfluenced by the rush-the-season trend which soon may have Santa Claus coming to town along about Halloween, let us discuss the Indiana senatorial contest of 1962 today. Proceedings in the forthcoming session of the General Assembly and during the Statehouse administration probably will have some bearing on who will become the next Hoosier colleague of Democrat Vance Hartke in the U.S. Senate. Unless there is a political earthquake, Sen. Homer E. Capehart will be victorious in his announced program to be renominated by the Republicans. Gov. Harold W. Handley, the badly-defeated 1958 GOP. senatorial nominee, has admitted he is a political dead duck and will pursue a career in civil life. Lt. Gov. Crawford F. Parker lost his political oomph when he was downed for governor, running some 250,000 votes behind VicePresident Richard M. Nixon in this state. Not For Halleck Rep. Charles A. Halleck, House minority leader, has other and bigger fish to fry. He probably will be the biggest Republican in the next two sessions of Congress because of his supreme ability to unite GOP congressmen and conservative Southern Democrats in successful opposition to pertain Democratic legislation. State Sen. D. Russell Bontrager, Elkhart, who ran against Handley for the senatorial bid two years ago, is an anti-Statehouse ally of Capehart and Halleck and isn't interested in battling Capebart. Lt. Gov.-elect Richard O'. Ristine probably will bide his time and pursue the well-worn track of running for governor during the four years of his. term in the second spot at the Statehouse. It is a different story among the Democrats. State Sen. Marshall Kizer of Plymouth, who lost the senatorial nomination to Hartke in 1958, appears to be revving up his engine for another try. Bayh vs. Kiser? He probably will toe challenged by youthful State Rep. Birch E. Bayh, Jr. of West Terre Haute, who win be prominent in legislative events. Lurking in the background is State Sen. S. Hugh Dillin of Petersburg, who lost in the 1956 struggle for the gubernatorial bid to Terre Haute Mayor Ralph Tucker. Dillin had strong labor backing. As of now, however, he is not an aspirant, he told the writer. ' Well aware of the sad. fate of Handley in the 1958 senatorial

Norstad Proposal Unnoted In U.S.
By PHIL NEWSOM UP! Foreign News Analyst Before assembled parlimentarlans in Paris, the American supreme cbmfnandet of NATO made a proposal iwhich brought cheers from the United States’ European allies but created comparatively little stir at home. Yet this proposal, if accepted, would require a basic change in United States policy and approval of Congress. Perhaps this seeming apathy toward Gen. Lauris Norstad’s suggestion that the North Atlantic Treaty Organization be made a fourth atomic power can be attributed to too much Thanksgiving turkey, the imminence of the Christmas holidays or to a state of mind resulting from 20 years of crisis. Primarily, Norstad’s proposal was to convert NATO from an alliance whose defensive concepts were based primarily on conventional tactics and conventional weapons to one brought up to date in an age of rocketry and nuclear warheads. Arms and Authority Under such a plan, each of the 15 nations of NATO would have atomic arms and each would have a say in their use in the NATO pool. It would eliminate a source of bitterness among the smaller NATO allies who have complained that among equal partners in the pact some are more equal than others. And it would eliminate the charge, especially from France, that the United States withholds from its allies nuclear knowledge already available to its enemies. Whether the United States will abandon the legislation limiting dissemination of U.S. atomic know how will be up to the incoming Kennedy administration and the new Congress. But the way has been prepared well in advance. The Norstad plan was “leaked” weeks ahead of time to newsmen way in the world for young comedians to build a reputation, and I expect we’ll be hearing more and more of them in the next couple of years.”
fracas, Gov.-elect Matthew E Welsh is not likely to run forth« Senate in the middle of his guber natorial regime, according to hi; lieutenants. Reps. Ray J. Madden of Garj and Winfield K. Denton of Evans ville seem to be contented in then congressional roles? End rushing the senatoria season.

in Paris, London and Washington. Proposed by Ike Last February, President Eisenhower voiced the opinion that the U.S. government should make available nuclear weapons to its responsible allies. But at that time, he said, no new legislation was being prepared. Some NATO allies would have the United States go even farther than proposed in the Norstad plan. Paul-Henri Spaak would send Po-laris-equipped NATO forces to sea. Naturally, the Norstad plan has brought no cheers from the Soviet Union which promptly labeled it another case of Western provocation. And, naturally, the plan is not without risks. If NATO becomes a “fourth” atomic power, then the U.S.S.R. might logically be expected to announce that the Moscow-controlled Warsaw Pact has become a “fifth.” The more fingers able to trigger an atomic blast, the greater the danger of a premautre explosion touching off world war. But at the same time, it generally is agreed that to be effective, NATO must be streamlined and it must have weapons. 0— —0 Modern Etiquette | By Roberta Lee I 0 -0 Q. To whom do I address a letter of resignation from a club, and how is this worded? A. Address to the secretary of the club, and In this general manner: “My dear Mrs. Rogers: It is with regret that I must ask the such-and-such dub to accept my resignation, since I am (it is polite always to give your reason, if possible). Very sincerely yours, etc.” Q. Is the bride’s family supposed to furnish transportation for those guests who have no cars from the church to the place of the reception? A.

No; it should remain where it is on the table. Household Scrapbook By Roberta Lee Home Barbering The “do-it-yourself” home barber will earn the gratitude of his small customers if he’ll use the vacuum cleaner on their necks and clothing to remove the small hair clippings that make their necks itchy. The vacuum cleaner can also be used to clean up the surrounding area after the tonsorial artist has finished. Attractive Pudding Puddings will look more attractive if topped with a spoonful of whipped cream and a bit of color furnished by candied fruit or jelly.
