CONGRESS MAY DECIOS TO ACT ON THE MATTER
THa Capitol
What measure*
to taket
By HENRY CATHOABT Central Press Washington Writer Yr7ASHINGTON—The administration is planning' one last W college try to roll back the highest interest rate levels in a generation. Tt is possible that it might succeed this time where there has been hesitancy to act before. President Johnson's top economic aides are pressing Congress for legislation to set lower ceilings on some interest rate levels being offered to savers. Up to now, Congress has shown concern about the high rate levels, but has been unable to come to any consensus on what measures to take. Administration recommendations along specific lines might help Congress to make up
its mind.
At the root of administration action is the knowledge that high interest rates never stay high for an extended period. They are brought down either by a gradual, orderly process, or
swiftly by an economic recession.
Hie present situation contains a recession threat and the Johnson administration is determined to try to forestall that eventuality. Left unsaid, but present nevertheless, is the implication that if Congress will not take ac-
tion soon, President Johnson may resort to his only remaining
alternative—a tax increase request
That is a step that Johnson is loathe to take, but the economic situation is becoming so perilous that his advisers fear that with Congress disbanded in the late months of this year toe interest situation could get entirely out of hand before preventive action
could become effective.
Next to Viet Nam, the economic situation hi toe U.S. is the most pressing problem facing the Johnson administration. Johnson is determined to establish a public record that he has tried his best to alleviate both situations.

• NO VICTORY FOR JCS—The Joint Chiefs of Staff are modestly diwJ«in»ing any “victory” in the decision, of President Johnson to order the bombing of oil installations in Hanot and
Haiphong,
Despite the fact that some Mfeve pictured toe decision as a triumph for the "hawks" in the Pentagon, officials there emphasize that the Joint Chiefs serve as military advisers, not as advocates of any particular Joint Chiefs
y Of
TRoeide*, there are those who believe that if anyone was “victorious” it was not the Joint Advisenf nhiMa l but Secretary of Defense Robert S. McNamara. These observers point out that President Johnson baa never taken an action that the Joint Chiefs recommended, unless it was approved by McNamara, bat that Johnson often has taken McNamara's advice when it ran contrary to that given |y the JCS.
Children's Book Author Finds Field Promising
By ROBERTA ROESCH '■ one thing you have always wanted to do is to write n children’s book, you have an author’s market today, according to one woman who Is successful In the field. She Is Roberta Miller, an editor an executive in a publishing firm. In addition, Roberta has also authored children’s books which have sold in the
millions.
Special Interest ‘T have always liked writing and books,” she told me. "But I’ve been especially Interested in the children’s book field ever since I was 12 years old. That is when I started buying books for my sister and noticed how few existed at that time that really had any strong appeal for children who were learning
to read.”
Roberta kept children’s books tm her mind through high school, college and an earlier career as a copywriter for advertising agencies. But she didn’t begin to write children’s books till she retired from business to have a family of three
daughters.
“In the days when my children were e-schoolers,” she told me, “I tried writing picture books. But I couldn’t get these first books published, so when my daughters entered school I decided if I couldn’t lick the publishing field I would
join it instead.”
To get her start in the world of books, Roberta used her advertising background to obtain a job writing jacket copy. Nice Letter Remembered Later, she went to her present company to seek a job opportunity, because when she had been home writing books she had once received a nice
letter from one
there.
When she joined the editorial staff, he rfirst assignment was a French cookbook. Later she went into the development of a special series of books. And

present responsibility is advertising, display and promotion.” To people who have always had the desire to write a children’s book, Roberta Miller has this to say: (1) Go to the largest stores in your area and study the kind of books each publisher puts out. (2) Research the length of the books and the manner In which the material is present-
ed.
(3) Talk to librarians and teachers and find out what appeals to the younger reader. Wide Application (4) Plan and write a book of wide application that fills a
need.
(5) Have a good illustrative j of the editors ’ idea on every page. (6) Make your subject a |
simple one.
(7) Refuse to be discouraged by rejection slips, since It Is said to be an author’s market for those people who write what publishers want
Don’t Put Yourself In Guessing Position By Alfred Shienwold When there are two ways of playing for your contract, avoid guessing. Try part of one plan and then, if nothing very wonderful seems to be happening, switch to the other. South dealer North-South vulnerable NORTH A Q983 KQ10 O AJ 10 8 A 52 WEST EAST A 74 « 62 V A98653 0 96542 O K7 4 10987 4 643 SOUTH A A K J 105 V 74 O Q 3 4k AKQJ Sooth West North East 1 4 Pass 3 4 Pass 4 4 Pass 4 O Pass 3 4k Pass 6 4 All Pass Opening lead — 4 10 South took the first club, drew two rounds of trumps and led a heart, using dummy’s king to force out the ace. East returned a club. Now South needed a little luck in one red suit or the other. If West had the jack of hearts, South could win two heart tricks with the queen and ten, to get rid of a diamond. Alternatively, if West had the king of diamonds, a simple finesse would bring home the slam. Unwilling to make up his mind, South tried running all of his winners in spades and clubs first. On the last of these he had to guess whether to save in dummy the singleton queen of hearts or the singleton ace of diamonds. South had seen West throw away three diamonds but no hearts, so he discarded dummy’s ten of hearts and tried the diamond finesse. Down one. TWO WAYS There were two ways to make the slam easily. One way is to cash the queen of hearts before running the spades and clubs. When the jack of hearts drops, the party is over. If the jack fails to drop, South can later fall back on the diamond finesse. Another way is to lead a diamond to the ace after East’s club return and then run all of the black winners, saving the Q10 of hearts in the dummy and the queen of diamonds and a heart in the South hand. If nobody throws away the king of diamonds, South must eventually lead a heart and hope to get two heart tricks. Either plan works, as long as South doesn’t force himself to guess. DAILY QUESTION As dealer, you hold: S-Q 9 8 3; H-K Q 10; D-A J 10 8; C-

The Man From The BANNER DO YOU FEEL THAT THE FAIR ON THE SQUARE IS WORTHWHILE? Mrs. Arc h i e O’Neil, R. 5, Greencastle. “Yes, b u t I can’t take advantage of any of the sales. I do enjoy the par ade and I think the students benefit from marching in the parade.” V. T. Fraizer, Rural Route, Clover d a 1 e. "I don’t see why it would not be. The parade I saw a couple of years ago was a nice parade, I don’t know if I am coming this year or not, it is too far off to know.” C h a r 1 es Brown, City. “Well, I think so. It is a nice thing. I enjoy the peop1e dressed up in their old time clothes. Also, I enjoy the old cars and the marching units in the parade.”
LONDON UPI—The Beatles, bleary-eyed but a million dollars richer, bounded back to Britain Wednesday. Their comment on U.S. reaction to the remarks by John Lennon about Jesus Christ was drowned by the screams of welcoming fans. About 250 fans, including a hard core of 100 “Beatlemaniacs” who had camped all night at chilly London Airport, hailed their return. Only one incident marred the arrival, kept under control by the unarmed airport bobbies who have learned the hard way how to handle hordes of Beatle fans. One group of youngsters hoisted a baxmer atop Queen’s Building at the airport which said, “Thank Christ you are home safely." Police moved in and ordered the protesting teen-agers to take the banner down. "We had a very good time but it was very tiring,” Beatle Paul McCartney said of the total of seven hours work in the U. S. which netted the group another $1 million.
said the group planned court action in an effort to get the appropriations back into the budgets. Brauer said state law permits a one-cent tax assessment for “the cultural uplifting” of a city by an organized cultural group. In this case the Artists League had levied halfcent assessments through both the municipal and school tax rates. The school board cut the assessment from its bad set previously, and the city council removed the item Monday night. The city council, in all, cut

VICTIMS of hemophilia, the royal diseasa that causes bleeding, have in a most dramatic way been given a new hold on health. An exciting discovery has revealed the substance which, when absent from the blood, interferes with coagulation. The antihemophilic factor (AHF) was developed by Dr. K. M. Brinkhouse at the HI U n i versity of North Carolina. With Dr. Edward ShanDr. Coleman brain, a specialist in blood disease, Dr. F. Thelin, himself a hemophiliac, has been able to extract AHF from blood plasma and preserve it for a long time. Previously the AHF in blood plasma cduld only be stored for a short period. Now, in a dried form, AHF can be kept in ordinary refrigeration for more than a year without a change in its value to toe hemophiliac. Dr. Thelin is one of the first bleeders to benefit from bis own scientific experiments. He has been treated successfully with AHF for two hemorrhages, one in the brain, the other from a peptic ulcer. Out of these intensive studies on Dr. Thelin and other hemophiliacs comes the possibility of preventing the hemorrhages that threaten the lives of those afflicted with this hereditary malady. a e a HEADERS' RELATED QUESTIONS Why is hemophilia called the royal disease? IntennaiTiage of closely related cousins happened frequently among many of the royal families of Europe. Tbs daaoendents of Queen
Victoria of England transmitted the hemophilia characteristic to the royal families of Germany, Spain and Russia. Each person is bom with the dominant and recessive characteristics of his mother, his father and his grandparents. Recessive characteristics tend to diminish with each successive generation. But with close family intermarriages the recessive characteristic of bleeding shows up in hemophilia. e * * Is there a reason why hemophilia does not occur in women? Almost always the bleeding tendency of hemophilia occurs in the male. It is practically unknown in the female, even though the hereditary tendency is transmitted through the female. Women may carry the disorder without having any of the symptoms of the disease during their entire life, e e e Has the life expectancy of the hemophiliac been Increased since it was first recognized? The hemophiliac now has an excellent chance for a long life. Repeated transfusions and the use of the new antihemophilic factor have even made surgery less dangerous to the bleeder, e e e SPEAKING OF YOUR HEALTH—The local Board of Health can supply immediate antidotes for poisoning if year physician is not immediately available.
