Balance Os Trade One often hears the phrase “Buy American,” find concludes from this that high tariffs on imports are necessary to “save” American business. Now certainly every sensible worker uses the products which his own plant manufactures, rather than competing goods. This is only common sense. V■ . ; But every worker should also know whether or not his plant is producing for sale abroad. If we do not trade with others, we cannot expect them to trade with us. Let’s take a good example, one familiar with everyone. It’s Japan. Most Americans think that Japanese manufacturers, through starvation wages dump tons of cheap merchandise on the American scene. Actually, the reverse is true. Japan must trade to live. It cannot produce enough to feed, clothe and support its own people. In 1960, the United States exported to Japan $1.3 billion worth of merchandise, and imported only sl.l billion, leaving a favorable balance of trade to the UJ?. of S2OO million. This past year we exported about $1.7 billion, and imported at the 1960 level. Just what does Japan buy from Indiana? That’s a good question. In 1960, it purchased goods valued at $31,000,000 from Hoosier firms, chiefly soybeans, machinery and vehicles. Think of that, soybeans, machinery and vehicles. We produce small motors here for machines, soybeans, and at Portland most of the steering wheels for U.S. cars are made. All within a few miles of Decatur. So it’s easy to see that trade is a two-way street. Export businesses, with its many additional firms, transports, etc., will actually mean more, not fewer, jobs for Americans. When even the old-time, old-line Republicans like Alf Landon, come out for lower tariffs, thinking people had better start reexamining their own beliefs. If we have a favorable balance of trade with Japan, which imports more goods from Canada than it does from us, just think what higher tariffs and less trade would do to the American economy.

Uttb Ohats Pibic Motto By Jssmb K. PaHaiA Long Distance NeUee (Na. 21 in a Series) A mid-western newspaper received a letter from a British law firm containing a request to print a legal notice. In brief, an English woman had decided to sue for a divorce from her longabeent husband. Under English, as under American law, she had to give due notice of her intentions. But she and her solicitors (lawyers) knew only as to her husband's whereabouts that he was reported to be in the Midwest. They were not sure but thought it was southern Michigan. An Ohio paper suggested that the notice be published in a Michigan paper, but the reply came back that they wanted the notice published as first requested. This was done in the legal notice columns. But the story was so unusual the newspaper gave it a “play” in its page one news columns, also. It is not known whether the notice or the news story ever came to the attention of the husband. But this little; incident illustrates two things. It shows how the wife moved in a manner to exercise her rights, yet in away to safeguard those of her husband by putting him on notice and giving him an opportunity to make a counter-move if he desired. In particular it showed how the bona fide newspaper is an effective and preferred medium for such purpose and how in so doing it renders an important service for which the law provides. „

Mercury Dips Near Zero In Part Os Stale By United Piw IntemaUonsl Northwestern '■lndiana bore the brunt of winter’s latest Hoosier storm today as temperatures plunged to zero in the wake of snows up to nearly a foot deep. The southern two-thirds of the state escaped the wrath of the wintry weather pushing southeastward from Canada. Predicted snows failed to materialize downstate. and temperatures dropped no lower than the teens over most of the state. It was zero at Lafayette and 1 above zero at South Bend this morning. Fort Wayne’s low was 12, Terre Haute 10, Indianapolis 14, Evansville 18, Louisville and Cincinnati 21. Snows which fell late Sunday and Monday dumped from 6 to 11 inches on northwestern areas near the tip of Lake Michigan, hitting chiefly a four-county tier including Lake, LaPorte, Porter and St. Joseph from Hammond to South Bend and Mishawaka. Highways in the northwestern section were slippery and hazardous this morning. The sharp drop in temperatures came after comparatively warm readings ranging from 33 at Lafayette to 43 at Evansville were recorded Monday, mostly in the morning before a steady downward movement of the mercury set in. Highs today will range from 5 to 12 above in the north to the low 30s south. Lows tonight will range from zero to 10 below in the north, 5 below to 10 above in the central, and 5 to 15 above in the south. Highs Wednesday will range *from 5 to 15 above north to 15 to 25 south.

Indiana Sales Tax Being Given Study

INDIANAPOLIS (UPI) — The Commission on State Tax and Financing Policy is studying possibilities for a sales tax “as a replacement for or supplement to the gross income tax or portions of the gross income tax at present and at increased rates’.” The commission reported its study to Governor Welsh Monday and said it is also studying the potential yield and probable impact ot personal and corporate net income taxes as substitutes for the property tax and the gross income tax at present rates, for the gross income tax alone at present rates and for the gross income tax, assuming various increments to present rates. The commission had previously recommended a constitutional amendment exempting household goods from taxation. Governor Welsh also received reports from the state revenue, financial institutions, motor vehicles tax, public service banking and beverage departments and commissions. The revenue department said collections from the gross income tax on real estate sales during the third quarter of last veer totaled about $2,225,000, that it had replaced 550 persons employed during the Republican regime of Governor Handley but

Embezzlement Is Charged Manager INDIANAPOLIS (UPD-An official of the Merchants Armored Car Service was arrested here Monday by FBI agents who said he had embezzled $37,500 from the firm since 1959. Glen O. McClain, 32, Indianapolis, the firm’s operation manager, was charged specifically with causing a false entry to be made on Dec. 13, 1961, in the firm’s checking account at the Merchants National Bank & Trust Co. Hie amount of the false entry was given by the FBI as $58,995. McClain, a 10-year employe of the firm, managed the embzzlement over the two-year period by making out false deposit slip duplicates on which he recorded greater amounts of money than he actually deposited in the bank, the FBI said. FBI agents recovered nearly $22,000 of the embezzled amount at McClain’s home after his arrest. It consisted of $14,500 in cash and $6,995 in checks. McClain’s duties with the armored car service consisted of handling vault cash and making up shipments of currency, silver and checks. , He was arraigned before U.S. Commissioner Lawrence E. Turner Jr. Monday and turned over to the U.S. marshal’s office in lieu of $3,000 bond.

Acid Comment On Ladies' Fashions By HORTENSE MYERS United Press International INDIANAPOLIS (UPI) — High fashion in low temperatures brought some acid comments from one prominent Hoosier woman. Mrs. Esther Kellner, Richmond, is widely known as a Biblical historian, whose work includes three novels about women of the Bible. “I love to write humorous things but am always being urged into serious ones,” she explained in a letter with which she enclosed some comments about feminine fashions that were about as biting as the weather. “Designers must all own stock in a pharmaceutical firm. For the iciest months of the year they offer you coats with no buttons. They often include push - up sleeves, although no woman in her right mind wants to bare her arms to zero weather,” Mrs. Kellner protested. “This year we have the added joy of collars which stand away from the neck allowing snow and sleet to whirl your back. And skirts are so short, your legs may not even thaw out in

time for the Easter Parade.” The words Used to replace common color terms such as red, black, green, brown or yelow also brought out the barb from Mrs. Kellner, who normally is a mild and helpful woman, and one of the veteran volunteer workers at Richmond State Hospital. “Some of these high fashion color choices baffle the intellect. Melon—what kind of melon? Water, musk, or honeydew? And spice—does that refer to cinnamon, pepper or mustard? Brandy, tobacco, heather, earth, brass, foam — what wacky colors are these?” - “Why not soot, liver, mildew and termite?” she asked. Mrs. Kellner concluded that women could stir! get their money’s worth from their current wardrobe, however, referring to “pointed hat, pointed shoes, shape less blouses and skinny skirts.” “When you are tired of this outfit;* she suggested, “it will make the best scarecrow ever, devised.”
