As economic realities have forced the East European ^ communist nations into reforms ; with more than a tinge of capitalism, the most far reaching have been undertaken by Yugoslavia, traditional maverick of communism. The many-pronged objectives of the Yugoslav program are to make Yugoslav products competitive on a free world market, to establish the dinar on an equal footing with western currencies, including the dollar, to reduce subsidies to state enterprises at home and to place the economy on the basis of supply and demand. In the western world, these are recognized procedures and the steps being undertaken by

Yugoslavia parallel almost exactly those followed by France when President Charles de Gaulle overhauled its economy in December, 1958. But in communist lands it is rank revisionism. In France, De Gaulle first devalued the Franc, reduced subsides to state-owned industries, including the railroads, and then reduced the astronomic figures appearing on French paper currency by moving the decimal over a couple of points. Thurs., a 1,000-franc note became a 10 franc note with the same value as its predecessor. The same has happened to the dinar in Yugoslavia. Giving strong support to Yugoslavia’s attempt to liberalize its economy has been the United States. In December it was disclosed

the United States had granted the country credits and debt postonements amounting to $57 million. In November the United States had granted a long-term $46 million credit for Yugoslav wheat purchases. Results of the reforms, which began last July, already have been impressive. Prices of many products have been allowed to find their own level on the free market. Despite early confusion, some factories are increasing their output. The trade deficit of about $200 million has been cut In half. Exports are showing a healthy gain and imports have been reduced. But while the state has benefitted, the change has not been without hardship for the Yugoslav people. In the controlled economy of orthodox communism, rents for the worker have been all but free. But as rent subsidies were reduced, the cost of housing more than doubled, as did the cost of electricity.

Doctor, Td Like To Know—

DO you advise early injections against a possible epidemic of Asian flu this winter?

J. P., Ohio

Dear Mr. P.: Each year, at the end of summer, the U. S. Public Health Service announces to physicians just what the possibilities are of an epidemic of Asian flu in the coming winter. This year, a widespread or severe epidemic Is not expected. However, it is anticipated that there may be more cases of AoiMl fhx ttll« winter than there were daring the last two

■did winters.

PobUe Health officials suggest that certain “high risk” people should be vaccinated in order to redoes the possibilities of severe Infections. A “high risk” group includes the elderly, those with chronic infections of the lungs, and people debilitated end weakened by any chronic or prolonged

jpness.

We have a child who is a bleeder. We live in constant fear that some day she may need surgery. If this ever happens, what are her chances? Mrs. R. B., Arkansas ‘ [Dear Mrs. B.: There are many conditions in which there Is an abnormal tendency to Meed. The reason why the

blood does not clot In normal time can usually be found by studying the blood and its coagulating mechanism. Often, the missing factor In the complex process of blood coagulation can be found and added to a patient’s blood. Also, when surgery becomes necessary for any type of “bleeders,” special kinds of blood transfusions are given before, during and after the operation. This markedly reduces the risk. Hemophilia is probably the condition that causes the greatest concern. This hereditary disorder, sometimes called the “Royal Disease,” now has been helped by an important and new discovery. Even if your child has true hemophilia, her chances are excellent if surgery does become necessary. At Stanford University In California, a new and inexpensive method has been found to prevent severe hemorrhages in hemophiliacs before and after surgery. A special blood-coagulating protein can be produced when blood plasma is quickly frozen. This substance was formerly available only with many repeated and expensive transfu-

sions.

This new discovery has been successfully used in many cases at true hemophilia, and will be a blessing to the many who, like yourself, live in fear of the possibility of surgery. • • • SPEAKING OF YOUR HEALTH—When sedatives and tranquilizers (even those that do not contain barbiturates) axe taken for a long period of time they can become habitforming.

As factories pulled in their belts under orders to get along without government support, thousands of workers were laid off and many still are unemployed. Some have emigrated to other lands to find work. Unskilled workers who had abandoned the countryside to jam the cities were being forced to return. Housewives began buying black bread instead of white. Rising coffee and beer prices half-emptied the taverns and coffee houses. But despite dislocations and some hardship, the reform has moved forward with amazing smoothness.

Fire Destroys Home, Grocery HATTIESBURG, Miss. UPI— Fire believed to have been started by arsonists destroyed the home and nearby grocery of a Negro civil rights leader near here early today and injured three persons. Forrest County Deputy Sheriff T. A. Woodward said the fire broke out at the home of Vernon Dehmer about five miles north of here about 3 a.m., EST. He said it was believed to “have been the work of arsonists.” Dahmer, his wife, Ellie, and their 10-year-old daughter, Betty, were taken to a local hospital with bums and were reported in “painful but not serious condition.” Woodward said Rainey Heidelberg, an 84-year-old aunt of Dahmer, was asleep in the rear of the store, separated from the house by a driveway, when she heard several explosions and saw the fire break out in the house.

When your opponents bid a suit and raise, but stop there, boost them one trick higher if you have the nerve and something to work with. There’s a big difference between letting them make an easy part score and pushing them overboard.

Murder Charge Will Be Filed

Unfortunately for young Jacoby, his father was at his left; and Oswald Jacoby doesn’t let opponents play comfortable contracts if he can find anything to say about it. The senior Jacoby found a bid of three hearts, and Dr. Fisher took the boost, not knowing that South was itching to get his hands on his father’s bid. This is an important argument in favor of “boosting” bids. Even when you’re in trouble, one of the opponents will usually come to your rescue. OTHER TABLES The boost would have done no harm if the defense had been the same as at other tables of the tournament. In most cues West led the six of diamonds, and dummy’s queen won. Declarer took the ace of hearts, ruffed a heart in dummy, got to his hand with the ace of diamonds and ruffed another heart. South eventually lost two trumps ,one heart and one club, making three spades. In this case, however, young Jacoby did not get away. His father made a “professional” opening lead—a low trump. This enabled the defenders to lead out three rounds of trumps in the first three tricks.

By Gaylord P. Godwin WASHINGTON UPI— Agriculture Secretary Orville L. Freeman says U. S. farm exports are “big, are growing bigger, and are giving strong support to the nation’s balance of payments position.” Freeman estimated U. S. farm exports at a record $6.2 billion for calendar 1965. This level is expected to continue or even increase in 1966, he said, and forecast new export records for feed grains, soybeans and rice. “Our agricultural ex’- -irts, which only a few years ago were smaller than agricultural imports, today are 50 per cent greater,” Freeman said. “Our agricultural exports in 1965 exceeded agricultural imports by $2.3 billion. “This favorable balance of agricultural trade makes a valuable contribution to our country’s balance of payments.” Freeman said most of the gain in agricultural exports has been in dollar-eaming commercial sales which have risen nearly 40 per cent in the past five years. He said U. S. feed grains in larger amounts than ever before are moving to Europe and Japan to feed the herds and flocks “that are expanding In response to growing consumer demand." He estimated exports of U. S. feed grains in 1965 reached 21 million metric tons, compared with 16 million metric tons in 1964.

U. S. rice exports, at a record 1.4 million metric tons in fiscal 1965, are expected to go even higher in fiscal 1966. Freeman noted that the United States is becoming the world’s second largest rice exporter, surpassed only by Thailand. Soybeans, a crop which scarcely moved in export before j .1945, is a leading dollar earner; now in world trade. Exports of j soybeans ?nd soybean products ; in 1965 were worth more than | $900 million. The exports were! 40 per cent of U. S. production and equal to the total harvest of the commodity in Illinois and Indiana. Freeman predicted more soybeans would be sold abroad Hose and Homes Stress.Texture What do women’s stockings and’ house sidings have in common? The answer is texture. Texture is the fashion news for 1966, and that includes clothing, home furnishings and houses. The emphasis on texture in stockings, fabrics, wall coverings and exterior sidings reasserts the traditional correlation between fashion trends In clothes and home decoration. The modem look in house sidings, for example, is threedimensional. It. is incorporated into mineral fiber sidings in the form of striated, woodgrained and saw-kerf textures that introduce interesting detail to bn«i«A ovtan-hw

in 1966.

Other big export items in 1965 included grain sorghums, alfalfa meal, fresh fruits and vegetables, wheat, quality beef, breeding cattle, non-fat dry milk, poultry, turkey, cotton and tobacco. Soviets Act As Peacemaker TASHKENT,U. S. S. R. UPI — The Soviet Union scored its first diplomatic triumph as an international peacemaker today when the leaders of India and Pakistan agreed to pull back troops from the front lines of disputed Kashmir. In a nine-point communique signed at the end of week-long peace talks in this Soviet central Asian city, Indian Prime Minister Lai Bahadur Shastri and Pakistani President Mohammed Ayub Khan also agreed to exchange prisoners and continue efforts toward peaceful relations. The document was viewed here as an important step toward ending the 18-year feud between India anl Pakistan over Kashmir, as well as a triumph for the Soviet Union in its unprecedented effort to mediate peace between two

Elderly People Perish In Fire COLUMBUS, UPI—Two elderly persons were killed Sunday morning when fire swept an old frame house four miles south of here. Both Mrs. Alice Hedger, in her 50s, and William Ballard, 58. were burned to death in their sleep. Authorities said the woman was identified from dental records. A third person was hospitalized with burns on the back, forehead and arms. He was Jeff Erwin, 65, owner of the house. Erwin managed to get out of the burning structure and make his way to the home of county welfare director J. Henry Blessing, who resides about onehalf mile away. Blessing said Erwin ran to his home in 10degree weather, clad only in a towel and T-shirt. Blessing called the fire department, but the fire was already out of control. Blessing quoted Erwin as
