American coffee experts meet
here this week end to devise a
plan for stabilizing the price of
coffee, now selling in U. S. re
tail stores at the lowest levels
in five years-.
Some 16 Latin American na
tions, which produce 80 per cent
of the world's green coffee, will
send delegates. The meetings,
conducted in Spanish and Por
tugese, will be closed to the
press.
Sessions are expected to start

A stockpile plan for Latin
American coffee may be devised

industry circles.
Through such a program, cof
fee sources said the green coffee
countries would "withdraw a
certain amount of excess pro
duction after normal demands
are met."

Boat Owners Having Tough Time Finding
Place To Park Their Floating Hobbies
New York (U.R) It's pretty
tough having a yacht these days.
You just can't find a place to
park. There are boats all over.
About one boat for every 30
people, according to the National
Association of Engine and Boat
Manufacturers, and this holiday
week end will see the opening of
what looks like a record-breaking
season for pleasure boating
on American lakes, rivers and
ocean bays.
Manufacturers estimate there
will be about 5,300,000 recrea
tional craft afloat this year,
ranging from stubby outboard
runabouts to yachts in the six
figure price class.
And upwards of 20,000,000
people will be casting off for
anything from a spin around the
lake to a summer-long coastal
cruise.
Expensive Hobby
These water bugs spent over
$1,000,000,000 last year on boats
and equipment and other expen
ses connected with their hobby,
which now ranks with bowling
and hunting and fishing as one
of the three most popular parti
cipating sports in America.
But the sea fever has its head
ache. Mooring space at popular
boating havens has fallen way be
hind demand. The boat-makers
say there ought to be three times
as many moorage slips as there
are.
Professional boat-builders last
year turned out 200,000 new
pleasure craft while another
100,000 were put together by do-it-yourself
men. The NAEMB is
practically begging waterfront
communities to invest in "mari
nas," the equivalent of parking
lots for boats.
Need Trailers
Dozens of these, both public
and privately owned, have open
ed in the past two years. But
with waterfront space at such a
premium, many a boat owner
has solved his problem by getting
a trailer and keeping .his boat in
his own back yard.
Production of boat trailers, in
cluding some models that will
handle a 25-foot cruiser, jumped
Morse, Neuberger
Urge East Approval
Washington U.R) Sens.
Wayne Morse and Richard Neu
berger, Oregon Democrats, are
urging Senate approval of
the nomination off Circuit Judge
William G. East of Eugene as
U. S. district judge for Oregon.
Morse told a Senate judiciary
subcommittee Judge East had
been "deservedly honored" in
winning nomination to the posi:
tio. "He received the comme
dation of every lawyer I've ever
talked with who has been in this
courtroom," Morse said.
Judge East was received yes
terday by President Eisenhower
forwhat the jurists said was "a
very friendly little talk."
The nomination is expected to
be sent to the Senate next week
for confirmation. There was no
adverse testimony.
from 3,790 in 1947 to 100,000
last year.
A man who keeps his finger on
the rapid pulse of the boating
world is Joseph Choate, execu
tive secretary of the NAEMB,
and it's his diagnosis that the
boom can be traced to the same
elements that produced the do-it-yourself
craze.
"Men have more leisure time
now than they ever did, and a
boat is better than a workshop.
It's something the whole family
can take part in," he said.
