Big businessmen, who will swallow about anything the NAM of Chamber of Commerce of the United States hands them, hook, line, and stinker, today consider the Kennedy administration strongly anti-business. Yet the Research Institute finds that they actually favor 90% of what the Kennedy administration proposes — tax credits on new purchases, a trade bill to lower tariffs, no tax cut if it means higher deficit. A good example of swallowing a story without 3) looking at it critically is typical answer on the stock market break of May 28 — “businessmen were selling stock because of lack of faith in Kennedy.” This really sounds threatening and good antiadministration propaganda, until you stop and think — did you ever talk to anyone who has sold his stocks because he thought the president was antibusiness? And if that was so, just why were stocks selling at their highest prices ever a year after President Kennedy took office? And why the recent bull market? Same man is still president. No, you have to look elsewhere for the answers to both of those problems. And the fact is quite obvious — most businessmen are Republicans, and therefore strongly anti-Ken- / nedy. But it is also just as obvious that when they discuss concrete issues, like tariff, tax credits, etc., they are businessmen again, and are thinking in terms of what is best for themselves and others — what is best for the country. While some busmessmen critize the president’s handling of Big Steel, none criticized him for stepping in and handling Big Labor to prevent a I ' steel strike. Editorial Writer Today Dick D. Heller, Jr.

Agonizing Task Os Reapportionment
(EDITOR’S NOTE: Two years ago Uncle Sam conducted his regular 10-year nose count. As a result 25 states gained or lost seats in’ Congress, confronting them with the agonizing task of overhauling their congressional districts. The following dispatch describes the outcome and how it may figure in next Novembers’ battle for control of Congress.) By RAYMOND LAHR United Press International | WASHINGTON (UPI) — State legislatures have finis h ed the agonizin g job of congressional redistricting along lines which indicate a small gain for the Republicans in this November’s congressional elections. Redistricting alone cannot give the GOP control of the national House of Representatives nex t year. They still will need a strong favorable tide to gain the 44 seats they must have to muster the necessary majority of 218 House members. Reports from UPI bureaus and national party officials i ndicate the Democrats probably will lose 17 seats they now hold and gain 11 as a result of redistricting. This would be a net loss of six. For, the GOP, there to-an indicated loss of four m a gain of six for a net gain of two. In 13 other districts, both parties claim an edge, or the outcome is considered too close to call. Historic Voting Patterns These findings are based largely on historic voting patterns. They could be changed as issues or strong candidates develop. Twenty-five states gained or lost House seats as a result of population shifts shown by the 1960 census. The legislatures in 20 of these states have redistricted. In each of five states, which gained one House seat each, one additional c ongressman will be elected from the state at large. These are Maryland, Ohio, Michigan, Texas and Hawaii. The Maryland passed a redistricting law, but it can become effective only if approved in a referendum next November. Therefore it can have no meaning before 1964. There is still a remote possi-

bility of reapportionment in Michigan, where Gov. John Swainson vetoed one plan. But further action is considered very unlikely. Prolonged political struggles preceded the adoption of reapportionment laws in a number of states which lost seats — notably Massachusetts, Pennsylvania, Illinois and Minnesota. Any state losing one or more seats had' to redistrict to avoid electing its entire delegation from the state at large. Revert to 435 Members The House will revert to 435 members next year from its present 437. Two temporary seats were created, pending the 1960 census, when Hawaii and Alaska were granted statehood. Only in New York and California would substantial changes in the party lineup of state delegations result from new reapportionment laws. In New York, where the delegation is being cut from 43 to 41 members, the Republican-con-trolled legislature adopted a plan which appears to eliminate si x Democratic seats and create four new GOP seats. California’s delegation is being increased from 30 to 38 seats. The Democratic legislature redistricted to give the Democrats at least Here are assessments of the pol itical effects of h reapportionment laws in other states: Alabama: Loses one seat in a nine-member Democratic delegation. A deadlocked legislature finally approved a plan to nominate candidates in the existing nine districts with eight to be chosen from a statewide runoff. Arkansas: Loses two seats from, its delegation of six Democrats. Arizona: Increases Jts delegation from two to three members. The new third district is listed as a toss-up; it is composed of Democratic counties which produced a GOP majority in a special congressional election last'year. Florida; Its delegation is enlarged from 8 to 12 seats. The GOP is conceded one of the new

The new seat is counted a toss-up. Illinois: Loses one seat for a new total of 24. The Democrats are expected to lose one and possibly three seats from redistricting. Iowa: One Democratic seat eliminated in cutting the delegation from eight to seven. Kansas: In reducing the seats from six to five, the legislature merged the districts of Democratic Rep. J. Floyd Breeding and GOP Rep. Robert Dole, who are rated about even. Kentucky: One Democratic seat eliminated in cutting' delegation from eight members to seven. Maine: Loses one seat in threemember Republican delegation. Maryland: .Delegation is increased from seven members to eight. The new seat to be filled at large is expected to be influenced greatly by the outcome of the governorship race. Massachusetts: Each party is expected to lose one seat in reapportionment which cut the delegation from 14 to 12 members. Michigan: Its delegation is increased from 18 to 19, with the new member to be elected at large. The new seat is likely "to go to the party winning the governorship. Minnesota: Loses one seat in a delegation of nine. The legislature merged Democratic Rep. Fred Marshall’s district with that of Republican Rep. H. Carl Anderson in what appeared to boa Democratic district. But Marshall retired. More Democratic strength was added to the district from Which GOP Rep. Walter H. Judd is retiring. The outlook in both districts is uncertain. Mississippi: Loses one seat in six-man Democratic delegation. Missouri: One Democratic seat eliminated in cutting delegation for 11 members to 10. Nebraska: Loses one. of four Republican seats. New Jersey: A probable Democratic gain of one seat in expanding the state from 14 to 15 districts. North Carolina: Remapping 12 districts into 11, the legislature put Democratic Rep. A. Paul Kitchip and GOP Rep. Charles R. Jonas into one district, which both parties now claim. Ohio: Adds one seat for a total of 24. The new congressman at large is viewed as a probable Republican gain. Pennsylvania: . Loses three seats for a new total of 27. Each party expects to love one se at and another district is listed as a toss-up. Texas: Gains one seat for a total of 23. The new seat will be elected from the state at large, meaning it probably will be Democratic. West Virginia: Delegation re - duced from six members to five with one Democratic loss indicated. 20 Years Ago Today - —* July 6,1962 — The annual picnic of the Adams county township trustees will be held at 1 p.m. Aug. 16 at Lehman park in Berne.

Unemployment Rate Higher During June WASHINGTON (UPI) — A new job report dealt another blow today to President Kennedy’s hopes of cutting the national unemployment rate to 4 per cent of the labor force by mid-1963. The Labor Department reported Thursday that the rate —a key economic indicator—inched up for the first time in more than a year to 5.5 per cent in June. Government economists said privately they have abandoned hope that joblessness will decline enough to approach Kennedy’s interim goal of 4 per cent by next June. The new figures disclosed that employment soared to a recordhigh 69,539,000 last month — an increase of 1,336,000 over May. But unemployment shot up by 744,000 to 4.463,000 in June, as it does every year when youngsters finish school and seek summer work. An estimated 2 million teenagers swarmed into the labor market and profoundly influenced the latest job data. The slight rise in the seasonally adjusted unemployment rate was described as “insignificant” by Labor Department manpower expert Seymour E. Wolfbein. He said a continuing drop in longterm joblessness reflected in the June report presented a “glimmer” of hope that this problem is being solved. Chief AFL-CIO economist Stanley Ruttenberg, however, declared that the key rate never would fall i below 5.4 per cent this year. Even though the rate holds steady, normal seasonal pickups would reduce unemployment to 3.2 million by October before it would start heading up again next winter. One government economist said the most troubling factor about the June figures was that they did not show enough improvement over previous months. New York Stock Exchange Prices MIDDAY PRICES A.

J. Ward Calland To Tour Soviet Union
J. Ward Calland, of Decatur, retired director of the Soybean Improvement Council, will leave Saturday on the first leg of a people-to-people agricultural leaders’ tour to the Soviet Union. There will be 34 in the group, led by R. B. Wilson, market service director of Purdue University. Calland’s wife, daughter, Mrs. Martha Camp, and granddaughter, Gail Camp, will join him in Paris July 28, and they will then tour Denmark, Norway, Scotland and England. Calland’s great - grandfather and two brothers came to America from Dumfries, Scotland, where the family name was Callander. All-Male Group The group which will visit the Soviet Union will be all-male, as most of '~ the people-to-people goodwill missions are. (The editor of the-Decatur Daily Democrat and his wife will be on one of two such tours this summer from the United States which will include women, but which will visit the Orient, rather than Russia,) . Two briefings were held before Saturday, and the final briefing, by the government affairs institute, will take place at Idlewild airport before the group leaves Saturday. They will leave New York at 9:30 p. m. by jet on the Sabena Belgium World Airlines. First Stop Brussels First stop will be Brussels, where they will meet with the U. S. ambassador and visit the European common market headquarters for talks about the common market. The next stop is Moscow, Russia, where they will visit the famous Russian industry exhibition, the Kremlin, and other sights, such as the GUM department store. Then the group will visit farms and farming operations on both the state and collective farms.

HF > OF J. Ward Calland About eight days will be spent on the farm portion of the tour, including farm areas in the Ukraine around Krsnodar and Rostov, by the Black Sea. After visiting Russia, the group will continue to Hungary, Poland, and Germany, both East Germany and West Germany, with the tour ending at Paris, France, on July 27. The people-to-people tours are not devoted to tourism, but are informative, educational, goodwill missions dedicated to improving relations and understanding between America and the people of the world. v , It is an opportunity for Indiana agricultural leaders to express their belief in democracy, combat communist propaganda and tell the important story of free enterprise and the American way of life. It is designed to implement the aims and purposes of the United States cultural visitation exchange program by the people-to-people foundation, headed by former president Dwight D. Eisenhower.
