R ing and Wedding Trips Arc Wasteful Economist Says South Bend, Ind. (VP) That limp-looking necktie in the mid dle of July is not only "sense less," says John H. Sheehan, economics expert at Notre Dame university, but an "economic waste." Outmoded customs and habits hurt America both socially and economically, this educator argues. Take the American habit of buying, he said. "If you want your full money's worth consult the home economics bulletins of your state universities and the United States labor and agricul tural pamphlets," he advised. The custom of observing holi days in the middle of the week is another social and economic wrong, according to Sheehan. who advocates attaching all holidays to the close of the week-end. "Not only does industry lose approximately half a billion dol lars yearly in the one-day shut downs, but millions of people lose socially in the work inter ruptions," Sheehan said. He blamed human Inertia, ig norance and a general lack of courage for the failure of Amer icans to throw off the outmoded customs. Even love goes on, dewy-eyed and saddled with "useless and outlandish" habits, Sheehan as serted. JULY t tr. REGULAR STYLES S5 to S6 Come in NOW! Get first cheiet!
