One of the most significant phenomena of late times has been the growth in share ownership in this country. When last the heads were counted, more than 17 million people, most of them in the moderate income brackets, owned stock in American corporations. And this trend is not limited to our shores. It has spread throughout the free world. Japan is an outstanding example. There stocks can be bought in department stores, amusement centers, and all manner of other unlikely places. Some 4 million Jappanese own shares, seven times as many as when the war ended. There are 2 million shareowners in France, and the same number in Italy. So it goes. Slogans used abroad are similar to those used here: “Own Your Share of In-

fatin' Can't Be Beaten (Wakarusa Tribune) If you hear some Hoosier whinny as mealtime approaches, these days, think nothing of it. He’s only doing what comes naturally. The season for home-grown sweet corn is in full swing, along with red ripe tomatoes. It’s one of the most wonderful times of the year from an Epicurean standpoint. Another is the period when home-grown strawberries are plentiful. It’s just plain downright Hoosier luck that the two seasons don’t clash — and a fortunate occurrence for people such as us who have difficulty anyway controlling their appetites. No matter what you call it or how it is prepared, the Indiana passion- for that succulent product of the maize is intense and traditional. In fact, one writer said it is so pronounced that Hoosiers involutar’ily begin to neigh as mealtime nears. Call it sweet corn, com on the cob roasting ears, roas’neers, or what you will, it’s absolutely delicious. To borrow from modern jive, it’s out of this world. The delicious flavor one gets from an ear of cooked corn — boiled, baked, stew-

IN WASHINGTON X Hartke Bill Seeks Social Security Benefits At 60 For Some Unemployed

WASHINGTON — A bill introduced today by Senator Vance Hartke (D-Ind.) would let certain unemployed persons retire on Social Security at the age of 60. The minimum retirement age now is 62. The state’s senior senator proposed that unemployed persons 60 or older who have exhausted their unemployment compensation could receive retirement benefits if they

dian Business;” “Own Your Share of South African Business”; “Own Your Share of Country,” and so on. As financial columnist Sylvia Porter puts it, “A first key point about all this is that shareownership is growing today in places where yesterday there was not even a chance for growth. A second key point is that it is growing in many countries in which industry has traditionally been controlled by the government or tight little groups of family owners and wealthy investors.” And president Keith Funston of the New York Stock Exchange describes the movement as “one of the most exciting aspects of economic growth throughout the free world since World War II.” Thus does the free world show its profound faith in free enterprise.

ed, or roasted — just defies description, no matter how it is prepared. To reap the richest reward by etiquette. After buttering the ear gererously, one grasps it with both hands, one at each end. For complete satisfaction, avoid those modern corn holders. Then after placing the elbows on the table (if one so desires to get the full enjoyment) one starts the back-and-forth, sideways, motion, mowing off the ears by rows. That entails a motion and rhythm akin to the playing of a French harp. But one thing is sure. No harmonica ever produced music as satisfying as that. Os course, there may be those whose dental equipment will not permit such procedure. For them, fortunately, not all is lost. As long as the ear is cooked properly with the kernels still attached, the grains then can be cut off the ear without losing much except the fun of getting butter all over one’s face and in orfe’s ears. As, sweet com and ripe tomatoes! It’s the time of year that makes one glad to be a Hoosier — despite the sales tax wrangle, higher levies, and-no legislative reapportionment!

are fully insured under Social Security. “The need for this amendment in the Social Security Act is urgent,” Senator Harke said, “in view of the serious unemployment facing our nation and of the severe discrimination facing older workers as they look for a job.” He said older citizens “are the first to be laid off, the last to be recalled.” Loss of a job for an

older person is often a permanent one because employers want younger workers, Senator Hartke said. ” ■ “The Bill I have introduced,” Senator Hartke said, “provides that an applicant for social security retirement at 60, rather than the present minimum of 62, must have exhausted his or her unemployment compensation 120 days prior to filing for social security. He must also meet all social security retirement provisions.” . While an unemployed older person is in a distressing position that could be eased by the proposed bill, Senator Hartke noted, the need to provide the standjoint of our national economy.” “Our current economic problem s not one of lack of production, lack of resources or lack of desire or goods and services,” Senator larke added. “It stems from a ack of personal buying power. By ’inwins' our older citizns to use their prepaid social security retirement benefits, we can provide this personal buying power and thus stimulate the economy so that unemployment in all groups is reduced.” I. U. GET-ACQUAINTED NIGHT AT ELKHART Kosciusko county high school graduates planning to enroll as freshmen in September at Indiana university have been invited to a “get acquainted” meeting sponsored by local alumni Tuesday, Aug. 27, in Elkhart.

In charge of arrangements is Joseph Buckley, 440 Village Lane, Elkhart. The - meeting is one in a series sponsored throughout the Hoosier state by the alumni association and the junior (freshman) division of the university. Guests will see color slides of orientation activities dating from the day students arrive on campus to the beginning of classes. They also will have an opporunity to ask questions about courses of study, housing, expenses and ex-tra-curricular activities. Coming from the Bloomington campus for the meeting will be Max Skirvin, alumni field secretary, and Logan F. Blank, assistant to the dean of the ‘junior division.

I ADVISE A L-O-N-G ENGAGEMENT

Dear Amy: My problem is quite unique and has me wondering if I’m all there! I’m 25 and have been married 3 times already. It seems that I THINK I’m in love with the beau of the moment and the next thing I know . . . I’m married. My parents have given me up as a lost cause and didn’t even attend my last wedding which just ended in divorce as the other two did. It’s not that I don’t like married life. It’s just that the men I married are not the men for me. How can I be sure that the next time is for keeps? Three-time Thelma Dear Thelma: You can be sure only when you are mature enough to realize what marriage means. Now that your last ride on the ‘marry-go-round’ is over, I suggest that the next beau you meet and think you care for should be considered eligible after a long, long engagement. As for your parents, how often can they sit through the same show! Dear Amy: I am going to be a senior in high school this fall and I have been going with a boy who is going to be a junior at a neighboring high school. I’m crazy about him, but a lot of the kids think it’s odd because we are both not in the same year in school. Do you think it matters, if you like the boy enough, what grade he’s in? Please answer in the paper. so our friends will see it and realize how upset we are about this. Judy Dear Judy: Don’t let your friends upset you. It doesn’t matter what grade he’s in so long as he’s ’Grade A’ with you! • • • Dear Amy: When I was a youngsteryand needed ‘correction,’ my nether corrected me with the universal salute given any naughty child . . . five fingers across the ‘you-know-what’ Now I have children of my own but my mother, who is living with me, finds MY methods of discipline quite barbarious and lets me know about it in no uncertain

7 DON FRANTZ County Agriculture Agent The' 4-H club members who sold livestock at the fair will receive their checks in a few days, The two Warsaw banks clerk the sale and issue the .checks just as soon as the / accounts are completely settled! The Sale was a dandy with one of the best average prices around. The barrows averaged $36.15, not counting the two champions. The steers averaged $33.40 after the champions were off and the lambs averaged $34.50. The hogs sold in litters averaged $28.50. The sale committee consisted of Bob Sittier, chairman, Dale Besson, Don Clase, Freeman Gruenewald, DUrris Harrold, Allen Sharkey, Elmer Martin, Kenneth Fawley, and Don Frantz. The auctioneers were Messrs. Martin, Fawley, Everett Rookstool, Jr., and Lester Bays. A good share of the success of the sale was due to the speed with which the livestock was handled. We did not have to wait at any time which permitted us to hell 239 head in about 3% hours. The superintendents were Leroy Norris, swine department, Andy Pylant, beef, and Gerald Smalley, sheep. Glen Byler gave us the report on the grade of the 4-H pigs that he handled. Os the 34 head, there were 26 grading meat type, 2 were U. S. No. 1, and 7. were U. S. No. 2 grade. To compare this with all the other hogs he bought that week through the Regular runs from the farms, 51 per cent were meat type.

Timber, like other farm products should be harvested when ripe. Trees should never be allowed to die in the tops—a sure sign that the timber is over-mature and losing value. Timber should be cut and sold when it is ready to be harvested. The farm woods should be culled as is a poultry flock or dairy herd. Every cutting should be in the nature of a salvage cut with the clean-stemmed, high value trees left to make full use of the space they occupy. The undesirable stock should be removed for use as custom logs, posts, or fuel. When it comes time to market timber some of the valuable spec-

Two years ago I bought a beautiful home for my wife because of her constant coinplaining of the apartment we lived in. I wish you could see the house now. She is a terrible housekeeper. The place hasn’t been dusted or straightened up for months. The newspapers from June 15th are still laying around. To continue, there are dried up milk bottles all over the kitchen and when the ashtrays are LUI, she just empties them on the floor. I could go on for a few more pages but I guess you get the idea. It’s gotten to the point where I dread coming home to this mess. Maybe.it takes a woman to understand one because I don’t! Knee Deep Dear Knee: Face the facts, Sir, your wife is just plain ‘Lazy?

ies of trees should be retained as a source of seed. A good growing stock should also be maintained to insure maximum growth in value and volume and to permit future selective cuts. Timber is a crop and if managed in this way can provide income at regular intervals. Timber should be sold on a volume basis. The woodland owner must realize that a buyer cannot pay as much for small, common trees as for the larger, high quality trees. If the farm timber stand is to be profitable the stand must be protected from livestock. Animals trample the young stock and damage the older stands.

Gasoline Tax Unfair INDIANAPOLIS — Motorists of Indiana have paid more than $742,342,000 in federal highway user taxes since the start of the Interstate Highway Program seven years ago, but 39.6 per cent of that money was not spent on highways, according to David R. Davis, executive secretary of the Indiana Petroleum Council. “U. S. Bureau of Public Roads figures show that between July 1, 1956, and December 31, 1962, the federal government placed only $448,128,000 of the highway user taxes paid by this state’s motorists into the Highway ’trust Fund,” he said. “The remaining $294,214,000 Was spent on projects having no connection with roads,” he noted. .“Federal highway user tax revenues in other states met a simana\present information on atropi\ rhinitis. i Early this year one of the midwest’s'best known farm radio men made a survey of the buying potential of farms. He used rubber tires and electric motors as his survey indicators. This included all sizes of tires from tractor tires down to lawn mowers and in motors it included everything from powerful enough to run.mills down to electric clocks. The average was 30.67 motors per farm and 81.43 tires per farm. The largest farm reporting was 885 acres, most of them were in I the 180 to 300 acre range.
