Note to Workers Industrial workers usually believe very strongly in buying U. S.-made goods, rather than foreign goods — believing that goods made in the United States give their fellow workers jobs, and that goods made outside of the U. S. take jobs away. This is only partly true. What is more true is this that buying goods made outside of the U. S. gives the country from which the goods come a chance to earn dollars to buy more goods from the United States. This sounds a little complicated, so let’s give a local example. In last week’s GE News, one of the weekly editorials points out the very important news that General Electric has received a S9O million Japanese order — an order that will be filling by General Electric plants from coast to coast. The order includes the largest capacity 50-cycle turbines ever built by General Electric’s Large Steam Turbine-Generator department. But the two orders for $90,000,000 worth of American products could not be made if Japan had not already sold S9O million worth of its goods to the U. S., or received S9O million in foreign aid credits from the U.S. Why? Because the sale is in U. S. dollars, and Japan must earn these dollars through trade. It cannot pay for goods in Japanese yen. Many, many thousands of workers in America would not have jobs if it was not for foreign trade. Much of our manufacturing growth since 1945 has been in foreign trade items — items that could not be purchased unless the American public would buy foreign-made goods. Much of Central Soya’s present expansion is directed toward foreign sales growth. Imports and exports are equally valuable to us — they insure a prosperous rail, truck, and air freight business, as well as steamship lines. Foreign aid, foreign travel, military expenditures abroad (by soldiers and their dependents) contribute to the strength of the free world, and to our, own industrial strength at home. Soifietimes we become a little irked and disgusted with “big business” —for example, this past week, when a well-known aircraft firm let thousands of employes go, with one day notice, because the U. S. government cancelled a contract. Some of these people had worked for the company for more than 20 years, in many, many plants, on many types of projects — but they were let go, just like the younger ones, who didn’t seem to mind so much — they were used to finding new jobs. Despite this type of legal irresponsibility that big business shows occasionally — like the steel price hike fiasco of a year ago — we still need large, competitive industries, and they give us part of the firm base, which, under our Democratic government, has led us to become the greatest nation in the world.

Fortune To Report On Tax Developments
Tax developments in the 1963 Indiana general assembly will be covered for the Decatur Daily Democrat by William L. Fortune. To be run exclusively in this paper in this county, Fortune’s columns will appear weekly throughout the nine weeks of the general assembly and will deal exclusively with the tax problem, considered the “hot potato,” of the upcoming session opening January 10. Because of the rapid rise of property taxes, and the booming school population and expected pressure for increased governmental expenditures in numerous areas, this year’s session is expected to be the stormiest in years. This is expected to be complicated still more by the political jockeying that will go on between Democrat Governor Matthew E. Welsh and the Republican-dominated general asi sexnbly. *- —*• ’■ Fortune, who will be at the state capital in Indianapolis daily to view developments “first-hand” is considered especially well-equipp-ed to view the total picture from both the viewpoint of the taxpayer and the state government. A tax consultant for firms and individuals for the past ten years, he also served: as treasurer of state from 195153 and was a member of the state legislature prior to that. H e also is a former newspaper reporter. In 1960, Fortune embarked upon a unique 6,000 mile trip duringwhich he made an “on the spot” study of tax problems of some of the most important sister states in-

Freeman Asks For Approval Os Wheat Plan MIAMI BEACH, Fla. (UPI) — Secretary of Agriculture Orville L. Freeman today asked a major farm organization to work for moderate internal support prices in Europe’s Common Market and to encourage American farmers to approve the administration's 1964 wheat program. “A moderate internal price in the Common Market and a favorable vote in the wheat referendum will have the same effect,” Freeman said in a speech prepared for delivery before the annual meeting of the National Council of Farmer Cooperatives. “Both will encourage an expansion in world trade and a strengthening of the free world alliance.” He said a high internal price in the Common Market or a rejection of the wheat program in a referendum in the United

States “will have similar — and disastrous — effects. Either, or both, could cause major dislocations in world trade patterns and in the free world economy.” He said there is much the cooperatives can do both in the Common Market and in the wheat referendum, to be held in late May or early June. “You have frequent contacts and strong mutual interests with the many cooperatives in the Common Market nations,” Freeman said. “You share with them a common belief in the validity of reciprocal trade. If you are not already working with your European counterparts to remind them of the mutual stake both of us have in liberal trade, I hope you will undertake such an effort immediately.” He said if the Common Market established high protective tariffs against U.S. farm products they would be a "serious threat to as much as S6OO million in our annual agricultural exports to present and prospective members of the Common Market.” He added that any sizable cutback in the volume of U.S. agricultural trade with Europe would seriously impair American ability to maintain security and assistance commitments in Western Europe and
Kennedy To Argue First Court Case WASHINGTON (UPI) — Atty. Gen. Robert F. Kennedy will argue the first court case of his career next week when he appears before the Supreme Court in a Georgia voting case, the Justice Department said today. He will present the governmet’s position in the renewed challenge of Georgia’s county unit voting system. A department spokesman said the attorney general chose to make his debut in this case “because it is very important and he is very interested in it.” The spokesman said it would be the first time that Kennedy, a law school graduate, ever had argued a case before any court He said the attorney general would have half an hour to present the government’s argument that no unit system is proper and that in general the proper reapportionment would give each man one vote.
