Teeth of American Children Said Worse Portland U.R) Dr. Cecil Bliss of Sioux City, la., say the teeth of American children as a whole are worse now .than they were 10 years ago. Dr. Bliss said this was true despite the fact that more of them are now going to dentists. He listed sugar as the number one tooth destroyer, with poor nutrition second. Dr. Bliss was here for the annual Oregon State Dental as sociation convention. Problems of world trade were analyzed by Dr. John W. Swarth out, head of the political science department of Oregon State col lege, when he spoke to Medford League of Women Voters at a general meeting in the Medford hotel last Saturday. He summarized Europe's sit uation by saying: "In Europe there are 27 sovereign countries in an area two thirds the size of the United States. Each country has its own cultural, historical, pgronomical, and economic background pattern on which to base its foreign trade policy." In order to clarify the deeply rooted regional dissension on foreign trade in this country, he used a map of the United States divided into sovereignties, and gave a "non-euclidean history," as he called it, of these fictional countries showing the back ground and accepted need for control of imports or tariffs, fol lowed by retaliation tariffs. Dr. Swarthout explained that the accounts in export-import banks can never get out of bal ance more than 10 percent. When 'the 10 percent limitation is reached there can be no more trading between those two ac counts until the legal balance can be regained. This is why, he said. Australia cannot buy cars and machinery ftom the United States because we have a prohibitive tariff on wool, therefore to the extent that it does, Australians drive English cars. Dr. Swarthout told how coun tries force others to alter their trade thvough manipulation of tariffs, thereby demanding cer tain things of each other that could only be worked out through complicated negotiation. Dr. Swarthout spoke of tne es tablishment of ITO, Interna tional Trade Organization, of the United Nations which had never been accepted by the large powers of the world trade pattern, mainly the United States and the sterling block. However, from the ITO he said, came the idea of GATT, General Agreement on Tariffs and Trade. This organization focuses world thought on the in ternational implication of tariff rates and established a means of multilateral negotiations among the 33 member nations. As Dr. Swarthout finished speaking without having offered any solution to the need of freer world trade, a lively question and answer period followed. When asked "What can we do about it?," Dr. Swarthout an swered. "I don't know," qualify ing this answer with a . brief synopsis of the problem facing Japan in the post' war world. Japan's natural market, he said, is China, southeast Asia and the United States. Of these three markets, China is closed to trade by the United Nations super visory council; southeast Asia has adopted protective tariffs in oider to encourage its own in fant industries, and the United States has closed its tariff doors to protect its labor market from the unbalancing influx of cheap labor produce from Japan. If Japan cannot trade, it can not support itself, he said, and, therefore, being a country the size of the state of California with eighty five million people, it must be sustained through a false economy of subsidization. Dr. Swarthout. pointed out that as long as the United States and other creditor nations main tain parity prices, price deter mined by the supply, through prohibitive tariffs, Japan and similar countries have no hope of altering their economic status nor their standard of living. Dr. Swarthout admitted the adjustment would come but it would be a long hard pull through a world educational process. He mentioned UNESCO as an available channel for this. The next general meeting of the League of Women Voters will be the annual meeting, April 30.
