WALZER UPI Financial Editor New York (UPI) The stock market is approaching one of its best months for the bulls with the prices high and talk of a possible lull in the upturn. 0 July has always been the S;r2"CZL best month of V the year for lf7jj, shares. In the past 61 years, ? this group has risen in 4 3 and declined -W M in lR .TnTvc "T Si " Ihe industri als have their 1 UAr- u ;M Elmer Walzc wnnui"" December with the score 44 ;to 17 on gains and losses. But July also is excellent with 42 to 19 losses. Then too, the market is get ting into the period of the! summer seasonal rise which has proved more potent than any other of the' Wall Street statistical marvels. The way Wall Street meas ures the summer period is like this: It takes the difference be tween the close of the indus trial average in May and com- J pares it with the highs of July-August. In the past 61 years, this July-August high has been above the May close. And most of the nine declines recorded have been small. The widest decline 11.4 per cent was in 1930. And the widest gain 72.1 per cent was in 1932 when the market was rising sharply after touch ing a near record low. In the past seven years there has been a rise on this basis in every year with the widest 10.3 per cent in 1955. Last year the average was even higher than it is now. It closed May of 1957 at 504.93 and on July 12 set its high at 520.77. It was higher in 1956, too May close 478.06 from which it rose to 520.95 on Aug. 2. The current figure was at the third highest in history for the day closing of 462.70. From a purely price 'stand point the market isn't any worse off than it has been in three Drevious years. But on the basis of price-earnings ra tio it is far higher than in many a year and this makes for the bearish talk at the present time. Also second quarter earn ings are going to be stream ing out in a few weeks. Wall Street knows they will make poor reading generally, and since it knows this, some think the market has ' dis counted the worst. But some wonder if it has some over discounting. If the market can take the second quarter results of cor porations in stride, many think it can rise to new highs for the year in the July-August period and maintain the summer rally tradition.

SP 3-5308 JIAELBERT, Manager The Hollywood Scene By HAZEL JOHNSON United Press Writer Hollywood (UPI Pe ter Potter, a Hollywood tele vision disc jockey, whose "Juke Box Jury" on a local TV station airs new records and predicts hits, has come up with an advertising gim mick which he says could help put a damper on "that" kind of music. Just what he means by "that kind of music" wasn't explained. But Potter did mention that his advertising and merchandising tie-in with the music operators of Ameri ca (MOA) will "tolerate only first class, top recordings." "I feel certain we can stamp out the filth, the naugh ty lyrics, that you can find in some of today's record hits," the disc jockey said. Arrangements Explained The way Potter envisions th arrangements, his show will be able to make a hit record out of any song through MOA, which controls more than a half-million juke boxes throughout the nation. The first thing Potter has to do is find a network spon sor "to "Jury," a task which shouldn't be so hard if he can do what he claims he can. Potter says MOA has agreed to put Potter-picked (studio audience picked, ac tually) records on each of its phonographs. And the organ ization also will agree to fix a decal advertising the "Jury" pick-of-the-week on each of its 500,000 machines. Sponsor's Name Included The decal will include the name .of the program's spon sor and will mark the first time juke box operators have allowed commercials or ad vertising to appear on the heavily - played machines. The first leg of the tie-in goes ' into effect this week. MOA's subsidiary, the Calif ornia Merchants Music Asso ciation has agreed to put the song selected as best of five new records aired in the course of this weeks hour- long telecast in 10,000 juke boxes operated in this state. "We can make a hit out of a record even if the public doesn't buy one disk," Potter remarked. Although it lives where winters are warm and food is plentiful all year around, the Florida b 1 a ck bear goes through the same seasonal routine as its northern breth ren. It feeds, fattens and hibernates. SUflMEf! VITAMIN 250 for the Prico of 200 THAT'S 50 FREE POTENCY GUARANTEED Vitamin "Bl" 25 Mg TOO TABLETS $1.19 SO.,.

Ore gon State penitentiary. By DICK HUMPHREY United Press International Salem (UPI) Warden Clarence T. Gladden, a vet eran oi tne federal prison with system, runs a tougn, ieaerai type prison here. That is what he was hired to do in 1953. The prison yard is so care fully policed that it's almost impossible to find a cigarette butt anywhere and the floors to get caught at a little week end crime. That's why there are 10 guard towers and a 27 to 30 foot wall around OSP. No one's gone over the wall for five years. There is some flexibility to custody. In fact, the classifi cation committee has its choice of five degrees of cus tody ?nd reviews cases at least once a year. A man in maximum custody is under individual super vision all the time. In -close custody he usually travels an officer around the prison rather than on a pass. Medium inside custody (medium-I) allows him some freedom of movement within the walls while on medium custody he may work outside under supervision. Minimum custody is for of the cellblocks and halls men at the farm annex and gleam with sheer elbow Tillamook forest camp. They are relatively tree except for grease The kichen and food stor age rooms smell fresh. There's no rubble laying around except where inmates are tearing down the ancient cellblock B. And there's no confusion. Inmates go to and from work in single file following a Bad Checks Lead Conviction List At State Prison Salem (UPI) The latest statistics compiled by Warden Gladden show, in order, the crimes for which men were confined to Ore gon slate penitentiary: Bad checks, 349; burg lary, 218; sex crimes, 208; robbery. 165; larceny. 159; manslaughter, 29; murder, 8; kidnaping, 8; and arson 7. painted red line. Every few yards a guard is posted to shake the men down at ran dom to keep them just a bit off balance. Of course, men allowed out side the walls on work parties get a shakedown coming and going and pictures in the hands of gate officers provide positive identification. Pressure Is Constant It takes a firm system and request it, his partner agree continuing pressure to make and the request must be ap- one-hour checks and they sleep in dormitories. Inside the 22-acre prison, major areas such as the indus trial area and the five-acre recreation yard are fenced off to prevent trouble. The nerve center control ling all movements in OSP is the control center located at the heart of cellblocks A. C. D. and E. Through it all men moving on passes are required to check and by it the men walk to the mess hall, block by block. Incidentally, - talking is permitted in lines and in the mess hall but the men have to get used to eating without a knife and eating all they take. An important feature of custody is "the count." Most prisoners get counted six or seven times a day and counts from which they are excused are carefully noted The warden is keen for ac curacy and within 20 minutes he can get a count of every one inside and outside the walls. Most Cells Singles All cells in OSP except in C block, the .oldest in opera tion, are singles. To get a double cell in C, 'a man must MRS.

They go on at 6 am and off at 10 p.m. In all blocks except C, doors are controlled from mas ter electric panels by an of ficer who is separated from the block by steel bars. The doors may be opened 'and closed in banks or operated singly. Like a small city outside the walls, OSP has its police court or "adjustment commit tee" which is composed of guard captain Lloyd and the two deputy wardens. ' Before it come men accused of minor infractions and tougher or more troubled men from the new 90-unit segre gation and isolation block (S&I). The committee can sentence a man to segregation with no loss of privileges except that he is kept away from the rest of the inmates. Into segrega tion go escapees, agitators, overt homosexuals, those in protective custody and those, like Billy Junior Nunn, under sentence of death. Isolation is a little tougher: No cigarettes, no mail, no vis its, a restricted diet and a mat tress between 6 p.m. and 6 a.m. only. Ordinarily a man can send out 15 letters a month and re ceive 30 from seven approved individuals. He is allowed two visitors a month. Mail, except for let ters from the Board of Con trol and the Parole Board, is censored and letters limited to both sides of a single page. At the end of the custody line are five "quiet cells" which are bare except for a hole in one corner which serves as a latrine. If a man tears up his clothes they are taken away from him. If he tears up his mattress, that goes too. A man may receive an in definite sentence to S&I, but there are rarely more than 20 to 25 men there at any one time. Only about 15. per cent of the prison population seems to get into any trouble accord ing to Lt. H- C. Cupp, trains ing officer. The rest of the men lust want to ao ineir time and get out. Vermont's first settlement was a jjrencn military out post on Isle La Motte, Fort St. Anne, in 1666. The first permanent settlement was made on the - Connecticut river at Brattleboro in 1724 at Fort Dumner where Timo thy Dwight, the first white child,, was born ia 1734. . . TB Patient Caring Costs Show Decline, VA Says The cost of caring for tu berculosis patients in Veter ans Administration hospitals dropped by $38 million dur ing the past three fiscal years, Charles M. Cox, local VA rep resentative, said today. Dr. W. B. Tucker, VA di rector of tuberculosis service in Washington, D.C., said the reduction can be attributed in large part to improvement in treatment for the disease, much of which resulted from findings of VA research. Newer drugs and other treatment for tuberculosis have shortened periods of hos pital stay for TB patients, he said. " -Joint Research For the past 12 years, VA has conducted a joint re search project with the Armed . forces which is the world's most extensive study of drugs against TB. Involv ing some 37,000 tuberculosis patients, the study has pro duced findings leading to present use of TB therapies by the entire medical profes sion. Dr. Tucker said the average duration of hospitalization necessary, for successful treat ment of TB formerly was about two years, while TB hospitalization today is neces sary for less than one year. TB patients today usually are able to return to produc tive employment soon after hospital discharge, Dr. Tuck et said, while in the past the TB patient had to undergo prolonged rest to gradually build up strength. Prior to development of the newer drug therapies, the relapse rate in TB ran from 35 to 50 per cent,. Dr. Tucker said. Today, that relapse rate has been narrowed down to less than 5 per cent. During the past 10 years the hospital death rate in TB has been cut from more than 5 per cent to about 1 per cent, he added.
