Confidence is the priceless ingredient of progress. Work ers, confident of job security, spend or invest their wages. Housewives, confident of steady family income, take hints from advertisements again. This procedure stimu lates business, confident of sales, to order materials and produce new and better goods. Confidence Reflected Let's take a glance at the current quarter. Flourishing confidence today is reflected in the rise of the gross na tional product-the total value of goods and services. More than 65 million people have jobs. Improvements are shown in the factory work week and the new orders re ceived by manufacturers. Per sonal income, consumer ex penditures and the produc tion index are at high levels. Housing is on the up again, stimulating the construction industry and strengthening the hope of accelerated busi ness soon in home furnishings and appliances. The inven tory picture is much better. And .public funds for defense and highways are giving the economy a nudge. Good as the picture looks, no sensible man or woman can be complacent in face of certain inflation signs that are cropping up. The wage price squeeze, the federal deficit, the political clamor for more and more and more government spending are mat ters which wise people cannot ignore. Must Understand Business can price itself out of the market when con sumers rebel. Wage boosts that run ahead of productiv ity are a boomerang. The worker must under stand that it isn't what you get in your pay that counts; it's what your pay gets you. If unwarranted wage increases spur inflation, a raise is a loss, not a gain. And inflation sa botages the future b destroy- Speed omentum ing the value of fixed income, insurance policies and pen sions.

ROBERT SMITH Mail Tribune Correspondent Washington Over $1.5 mil lion annually has been author ized in federal aid for Oregon institutions of higher educa tion under the newly enacted n a t i onal de fense ed u c a- tion act, the a d m i n istra- tion informed the office of Rep. Edith A. Robt Smitb ti r e e n ( Ore.). Over the four-year life of the program outlined by the act, Oregon's allotment would rise to about $2 mil lion for the final year, the bulk of it in funds to use as student loans. Just when funds will be come available on this scale has yet to be determined, for Congress passed the education bill in the closing days of the session without appropri ating enough fully to imple ment the program. It did appropriate $40 million to al low state education institu tions "to start tooling up" be tween now and when Con gress returns next winter. Oregon's share in this initial amount will be $363,580. This means that after de tails are worked out this fall, Oregon colleges and univer sities could draw up to $73, 393 to offer as student loans. After Congress next winter appropriates more money for the educational program, Ore gon Schools will be eligible for a total of $581,029. for this first year of the student loan program. Program Will Grow The student loan program thereafter will grow larger, with Oregon's share running to approximately $1 million a year by 1962, the last year of the program as outlined in the new act. Each state is to get an allotment of funds in proportion to the number of students attending colleges and universities in that state, Heart Attack Fatal To Washougal Chief Washougal, Wash. (UPD Washougal Police Chief Hen ry Kaiser died, apparently of a heart attack, at his home here Monday afternoon. Kaiser, 52, had been chief of police here since 1950. Pre viously he was a Clark county sheriffs deputy and police officer in Vancouver. He is survived by a widow and two sons. as compared with other states. No institution could draw more than $250,000 an nually for student loans. Each student could borrow no more than $1000 annually, or $5000 over his student career, but he would not have to start repaying it until a year after he was graduated. He would then have 10 years from that time to repay the debt. Interest would run from the start of the 10-year re payment period at 3 per cent and would not accrue during the student's years in school. If a student goes into teaching, up to half of his loan could be cancelled at the rate of 10 per cent for each year of teaching in public elementary or secondary school. Although the bill was label ed a boost to scientific educa tion, loans will be open to students entering any fields, as long as the institution is satisfied that he needs the loan and will be a student in i good standing academi cally. Prospective teachers, or science, math, engineering and language students get preference. - Another large aspect of the education program is for aid in purchasing equipment used in teaching science, mathe matics or foreign languages. Oregon will be entitled to $634,370 a year for four years, Mrs. Green was advised. Un der the initial allocation, how ever, Oregon's share will run $172,186 until Congress ap propriates more money. Dependent on Congress Other aspects of this same program for strengthening education in these three fields will result in authorizations for Oregon totaling about $92,000 a year. Under the vocational edu cation program, Oregon will get $153,405 yearly. And un der the counseling, testing and vocational guidance pro gram, Oregon will be entitled to $152,000. All of these amounts are dependent on annual appro priations from Congress, which might not in some years measure up to the full authorizations in the new act, especially if an economy wave puts the lawmakers into a mood to cut and trim the federal budget. But in any event, a pro gram of general federal aid to higher education is now in the works for the first time and Oregon institutions will be able to take advan tage of it, for the benefit of their students, within a few months. iWliTleW) Distributor DIL TO BURN" Let Us Fill Your Tank Now Medford Fuel Co.

Wayne Morse (D.-Ore.) continued his attack on the Eisenhower ad ministration's Formosa poli cies Monday and said the island should be placed under a United Nations trusteeship.
