It followed up with an agreement to build up the East German Communist regime. The S o v i e t action amounted to a declaration of war on German Chancellor Kon rad Adenauer. Zorin, as a Soviet deputy foreign minister, was ex pected to open a big propaganda campaign against Adenauer in an attempt to undermine his au thority. The issue which caused a near-break in relations was German unity. Moscow demands that Adenauer negotiate on unity with the East German Reds. He refuses firmly to do so. 3. The United States accused Russia of holding prisoner at least 10 crew members of two missing American planes. One of the aircraft, a Navy Privateer. was shot down bv the Russians Washington (CQ) if pros perity arrives with the Republi can elephant, won't labor want the combination to stay? Cer tainly, say the Republicans, and that's why the GOP will win in November. A short, backward look shows why the GOP is optimistic. Just 24 years ago, a Republi can Presidential candidate bid for the labor vote with the prom ise of a chicken in every pot, a new car in every garage. One depression and one war later, the Democrats came up with their 1944 slogan of 60 million jobs. Now there are an unprecedent ed 66.5 million jobs. The factory worker's standard of living is 15 per cent higher than it was in 1952. A chicken cooks in every rotisserie or eye-level oven in the land. There's a flashy car in every garage. Claims Reward And the Republican Adminis tration, that has coincided with this record peacetime prosperity, is claiming its "just reward" at the polling places in November. A Congressional Quarterly sur vey shows Mr. Eisenhower crack- only 107, mostly in areas where white collar workers and farm ers approach or exceed the num ber of blue collar workers. The 1954 Congressional elec tion disclosed a trend to the Democrats in the biue collar dis tricts, which may have been sen sitive to the temporary rise in unemployment. Democrats made a net gain of 19 seats in 1954 to win their 232-203 control of the House of Representatives. Twelve of the 19 wins came from among the 214 districts were more than half the workers are In blue collar jobs. With control of the next Con dress at stake, Republicans are trying to beef up their campaign organization in these labor dis tricts. Democratic candidates will continue to get most of the labor union endorsements, and Republicans concede the unions do a big job of registering voters and providing manpower for precinct work.

A surplus of a commodity brings lower prices and vice versa. The many attempts of governments and individuals to control prices have all ended disastrouslv. Swings in Pricei Years of study have shown that commodity prices move in definite cycles. I have proved to my own satisfaction that indi vidual commodity prices, as well as groups, follow distinct though not regular periodic fluctuations. Of course, one must distinguish clearly between the major cynical or long swing movement and the minor or shorter-swing movement. When both trends are in the same direction, the price movement is accentuated. Otherwise as in recent years prices tend to hold fairly steady or to move in the direction of the stronger trend. In order to gauge proper ly the movement of prices, you must consider both the major and the minor trends. Commodity experts who now follow various commodity mar kets more closely than I do be lieve that the major trend in commodity prices continues up ward. They forecast a higher average of commodity prices be fore this present major cycle , has been completed, but they ; emphasize that interruptions to ! this upward "rend are possible. Also, they tell me that there will be individual commodities which will move contrary to the underlying trend. Hence it is absolutely necessary especially . in these uncertain times to 1 analyze each commodity sepa rately. I forecast that failure to do so may prove costly, for the next minor movement in I think commodity prices will be down ward. I forecast it may get un der way sooner than today seems possible. From my readers' mail, I no tice that there are comparative ly few questions on commodi ties. Most people are interested only in individual securities or groups of securities. They sim ply do not realize that supply- demand trends and prices in the commodity markets deter mine, to a considerable extent. the return thev get on their stocks. I never buy stocks without giving consideration to price trends in the products made or heavily used by the company in which I plan to invest. I rec ommend this policy to others and I caution against speculat ing in the commodity futures markets. You can make money fast in commodity futures, but you can lose it twice as fast: The fluctuations of the stock market are great enough; but commodity prices fluctuate even more. Most manufacturers must buy their raw materials nearly a year in advance: but they can usually protect these purchases J by buying or selling "futures." ! In such cases, however, they should never be traded in to "make money" or for specula tion. Merchants should not bother with "futures." they are danger ous. Better stick to the advice of wholesalers with whom you have traded for many years. Do not let any salesman "high pres sure" you into buying more than you will need for more than six months ahead. This is a time their message to the rank-and-file. That message will highlight prosperity, but also will empha size the welfare programs foremen, machine op- j social security and health legis lation, for instance strategists think appeal to the workers' wives. The ladies, who voted in surprisingly large numbers in 1952, will be wooed assiduously by both parties. Democrats concede few votes will be won with demands for Taft-Hartley Act repeal and acknowledge they lack a single- word issue to match prosperity. They will argue the workers' economic gains have not kept pace with business profits. They will accuse the Republicans of operating on a "trickle down"' theory of economics and of fail ing to cure the soft spots in the economy. They hope the cumu lative effect of these arguments coupled with traditional pro Democratic leanings of workers and top union leader support will carry them through in No vember. (Copyright 1956. Congressional Quarterly) borers except those who work on farms or in mines. Nationally, slightly less than half the workers fall into this blue collar category. But there are 52 Congressional districts mainly in the big cities where more than 60 per cent of em ployed persons are blue collar workers. Mr. Eisenhower's 1952 rival and possible 1956 opponent, Ad lai E. Stevenson, won two-thirds of these 52 heavily blue collar districts. But Stevenson's aver age margin of victory was about 5 per cent of the vote by no means an insuperable advantage. Many Negroes These pro-Stevenson labor dis tricts include most of the non southern districts with the larg est numbers of Negroes. Tradi tionally Democratic in political allegiance, the Negroes will be subject to Republican appeals not only on prosperity but on civil rights. In 383 districts where the pro portion of blue collar workers was below 60 per cent, the Con gressional Quarterly survey found Mr. Eisenhower ran far ahead of the Democratic nom inee. The President carried 276 such districts. Stevenson won home.

They asked only one thing: Did their leaders, in the military and in the government, believe there was a threat against which their efforts could mean something? trol.

The scope and character of the air defense mission requires the full participation and coopera tion of hundreds of thousands of civilians. Air defense. General Wise said, is still the concern of every citi zen in the United States. A new threat has loomed for America in the past year or so. This is the missile threat. It is real, but it is a future threat. "The threat to our security now and for some time to come lies in the long range bomber force for the Sovict Union," Gen eral Wise said. It is a powerful force. It could be used against the United States tonight, tomorrow or next year. It is a threat that should it become a reality, can be heard and seen. It is a threat which, if em ployed in a low level attack, the GOC could ward off, and pos sibly save cities and their mil lions of people. General Wise has a message for skywatchers on their anni versary date: "It now appears we will need the I 'he Ground Observer Corps for at least another four years. There mey be adjustments either way, but this is the picture as we see it now. "We will account to you regu larly about these adjustments based on our best estimates of the danger, and our continued progress in facing up to that danger." His words definitely answer the question that is being asked at the half-way point in the his tory of Skywatch: Is the service of the volunteer watchers still needed? The answer: "Yes."
