EIGHT MEDFORD (OREGON) MAIL TRIBUNE Friday. August t, 1957 Wall Street Loses Some Optimism Held During Recent Days By ELMER WALZER United Preti Financial Editor New York W With high er money rates said to be in p-osDect and inflation cutting into nrofits. Wall Street isn't quite as o p timistic as it was a few days ago. P ro f it-pinching operations were noted in the first half reports of Elmer Waizer many corpora tions. Now several industries are releasing information on the amount of wage and other costs being absorbed. The steel industry raised wages 8 per cent July 1 and ad vanced prices to add only 4 per cent to sales, according to its leaders. Tire wages have risen S per cent and prices are being raised 3 per cent on tires and 3 to 6 per cent -on other rubber prod ucts. Less Than 4 Par Cant Aluminum costs, including wages, rose 8 per cent in the year ended June 30. The com panies raised aluminum prices by slightly less than 4 per cent. Oil companies pushed prices up small fractions when they raised wages but competition and big inventories forced them to retract the raise. In fact the 'V' 4 'A ml The Family Council Editor's not: Th Family Council consists of a Judge, a psychiatrist, threa clsrcymen, a newspaper editor a women's 0!itor and two writers. Each article la a summary of an actual report. The Family Council does not five advice; It merely reports on problems that have been dealt with by responsible agencies and counselors. Flora D. I won't take in our alcoholic brother. Ganavive M. He's our cross to bear. Flora D. My sister and I are both married and living in cities quite fa -?part. Our father is dead and our mother, quite aged, lives with me. "Our problem is our younger brother, who is an alcoholic. He has made a mess of his life, de serted his wife and children and just drifts from place to place. Every now and then he turns up at my house or my sister's. We cannot have him around the house with the children there. Also, we have some standing in the community and it is very embarassing to have him around. We have given him so much money, it is disgraceful. I feel Court Records MUNICIPAL COURT Elmer William Rauich, violation of basic rule, $10 bail. Earl Robert -Ford, excesiive noise (tirest. $10 bail.

So it goes along the line, vith competition restraining price rises sufficient to compensate for higher costs. And now comes the Guaranty Trust Company's monthly letter to say there is no buoyancy in business -operations. The bank says the widespread expectation of an upturn in business this autumn is in some measure the product of hope rather than of tangible signs of rising activity. Commenting on this same sub ject, Interational Statistical Bu reau notes there is nothing dyna mic on the upside, and no great fear of a general decline. "This lack of excitement," says the bureau, "makes it tempting ,to take a mental va cation." It goe on to say that mental vacations in such periods as the present usually are a costly mistake. "If current operations demand less energy, there is more en ergy available to put into for ward planning. There is plenty to do even though the economy is temporarily standing still." As for money rates. Guaranty Trust Co. holds a rise in the prime lending rate, now the same as the rate on some gov ernment bonds, is merely a mat ter of timing and a change can be expected after the Treasury's financing is completed. that my sister is making matters worse by always taking him in. I refuse to do it anymore. Genevieve M. I know it does' not help and perhaps makes mat ters worse, but how can you turn away your own brother when he comes to your door? Flora is cruel. I don't like having Harry around the house either, but at least I can give him a few good meals to eat, a clean bed to sleep in for a little while. He is usually very quiet and after a week or two, just slips away again without saying a word to anyone. As I see it, Harry is our cross to bear in life and we have no right to disown him. I do feel that Flora ought to, at least, shoulder some of the burden with me. If she took him in, for a couple of weeks each year, it would mean that he gets a little more care. Tha Council Alcoholics often try the patience of those closest to them beyond tfie breaking point. Nevertheless, Flora's point of view cannot possibly be justi fied. If she has any conscience at all, she will not be able to turn her brother from her ojpor. Genevieve's attitude, while hu man and ethical, could still be improved. Harry is more than a burden, "a cross to bear." He is a human being. Even in his, wrecked state, there are gleams of something worth while in him. He should not be treated like a mass of hopeless debris. . The history Of Harry's alco holism is evidently so old that the sisters evidently give no thought to rehabilitation. But they should never give up all hope and all effort. There are countless stories of sudden changes in apparently hopeless cases. Harry needs more than a bed and a few meals.- Without letting him get under their skins or be come too dependent upon them, the sisters ought to try offering him a listening ear when he comes to see them. If he opens up on his problems, they should try to gently steer him in the di rection of Alcoholics Anony mouse, or of a clergyman. Under no circumstances should the sisters use. nagging or pres sure on Harry. They should try to greet him as if they are happy to have him. If they will look into him a little more deeply, they will find things that give them reason to love him and to hope for him. (Copyright 1957, General Features Corp.)
