WALZER UPI Financial Editor New York - (CPD - Members of investment clubs through out the nation " are holding f Zt " """2 their stocks -- 1 despite the 4s I market's gyra 3 tions. A The indi Kffe 'f viduals in those clubs are shooting for a goal of $10,000 in stocks at the Elmer Walzcr suggestion O f the National Association of Investment Clubs. "Many professionals felt that the clubbers would be fair weather investors who would pull out at the first sign of a downturn, says Thomas E. O'Hara, chairman of the board of trustees of NAIC. "Instead our members have looked upon recession periods as opportunities to . buy stocks at bargain prices, and new clubs have continued to spring into being during such times "Our members have demon strated they intend to remain in the market for the long pull, and we're confident that most will reach the $10,000 goal we've suggested.

Watkins Although the Hn Can Err, Hr Eg? is a Miracls A doubled yolk egg proves one thing; that even the silent, smooth-working "machinery" of the hen's interior, usually efficient and trouble free, can at times go haywire. The double yolk egg might, " under favorable conditions of time, warmth and incubation, produce an abnormality, such as a chicken with two heads or an extra leg or some other disfigurement. Bought at a store for food, a double yolk egg would be a bargain, but it isn't "right." It is mute evidence that some wires be come crossed in the hen's in ner workings. Human Viewpoint Looked at from our human viewpoint, with our aptness for mechanics,, we might mar vel that the hen's egg making "machine" doesn't backfire oftener than it does. Because we make them, we get the idea that the electronic brain or the guided missile is about as complicated as a thing can be, but these things are as single as a child's' toy when compared to the delicate, well adjusted, inner "machinery" inside a hen; Here is an unexplained mas terpiece of the Creator's art much more complicated, ef ficient and perfect than any mechanical contraption man has ever made. Here is a working organism composed of relatively few parts that produce two or three hundred miracles a year. Here, by the mystery of chemistry, all the valuable in gredients of an egg are assem bled, each equipped with that spark that will produce a liv ing, breathing creature en dowed with all the instincts of its ancestors and with the ability to recreate itself, times without number. Liquids Separata Selves And all enclosed in a, hard, but easily breakable container are liquids that can seperate themselves and develop feath ers, bones, flesh, wings, legs and brains and all the vital organs necessary to live. The most elaborate machines that man can make, regard less of how many parts it contains or what it does, re mains nothing but a machine; all its parts are inanimate, re gardless of what form it takes. The difference between flesh and fabric is very great. Still we carelessly speak of mira cles. A laying hen may pro duce as many as 200 or more eggs consecutively. That is the exact equivalent to giving "birth" to a living being 200 or more times. This is effic iency that is really a miracle, accomplished silently with no vibration or fanfare. Some thing a machine will never duplicate. This then is the Miracle. (Released by The Register and Tribune Syndicate, 1959- ROCKET EXPLODES Huntsville, Ala. - (UPD- A rocket using an experimental solid propellant for fuel ex ploded on a test stand at Red stone Arsenal near here Wednesday, the Army report ed Thursday. The rocket was being tested for the Army's Nike-Zeus program. viduals. These figures show a gain of 36 per cent for clubs and 43 per cent for members since Nov., 1958. Now the clubs are going international. The Canadian Association of Invest m e n t Clubs, patterned after the American group, was institut ed in 1955 and today has 400 clubs. Within the past year, Great Britain has started its association and has chapters in 26 cities. Other associations of invest ment clubs are currently or ganizing, under NAIC guid ance in Norway and Aus tralia. Inquiries have been received from interested groups in Switzerland and Ja pan. "We are confident," says O'Hara, "that private owner ship of local and world-wide business is the path to higher living standards and lasting peace." The clubs are small groups of friends, neighbors or busi ness associates who meet, monthly to decide how they are to invest their pooled funds. The clubs commonly num ber 10 to 15 members, while the monthly 'investment for each member runs from $10 to $15. Careful Study The members carefully study prospective investments and take a vote on which stocks to purchase. The as sociation has been interesting them in investing regularly in growth stocks and in re-invest ing their dividends. Not a few already . have reached the tentative club goal of $10,000 in stock. O'Hara's own club, the Mutual Investment Club of Detroit, was formed in 1951 and one of its members recently calcu lated that the total of $3,820 he had paid in for investment had grpwn to $23,624. The investment club move ment has grown rapidly in the U. S. in the past year. Local councils which serve as region al arms of NAIC in various parts of the country, have come into being in South Bend and Kalamazoo. Groups have held meetings in Buffalo, Utica, Syracuse, and Minne apolis - St. Paul. Regional councils already are active in Chicago, Detroit, Milwaukee, St. Louis, and Ann Arbor. The clubs will hold their ninth annual convention Oct 30 and 31 in St. Louis. They anticipate 1,000 will attend, a rise over last year's 800 who met at Chicago. Cheating Merchants Are Easily Cheated Boise, Ida. (UPD It takes a cheat to cheat a cheat. And lor that reason, says Dale Jttoman fanmanmie, a 58-year-old Apache Indian from Arizona who admits he's been fleecing businessmen since he was 25, many mer chants are easy marks for the passer of bogus checks, Ssome merchants are so anxious to cheat the person they believe to be dumber than them, that they are eas ily cheated themselves," said Pahmahmie. He remembered the time he gave a merchant a forged check for $900 and received S600 in change. The business man was so eager to make a sale to a "dumb Indian," Pah mahmie recalls, that he did noUstop to study the man he was dealing with, And that, said Pahmahmie, is the only way a merchant has to protect himself from "getting stuck." By the way, Pahmahmie is currently serving a 14-year term in Idaho State peniten tiary for passing bogus checks. ERHARD TO U. S.

Khrushchev's Policies Not Aimed at War, British Soviet Expert Declares London- (UPB -Nikita Khru shchev's foreign police is not aimed at war even when the Kremlin employs its blunder bus tactics, in the view of an acknowledged British expert on Soviet military affairs. Wing Commander Asher Lee, who has written numer ous books and articles on Rus sian military policy and has lectured on the subject to U.S. Air Force and NATO officers, thinks the Soviets are waging a nerve war without contem plating a military war. Lee makes this point in his latest book, "The Soviet Air and Rocket Forces," which analyzes Russian air strength, and he reiterated it in an in terview. Lack of any militant action by Russia in connection with the Berlin crisis in May was cited by Lee as a case in point. He predicted long be fore the May 27 "ultimatum" that there would be no mili tary showdown over Berlin. Another Example Khrushchev's ultimatum tac tics, Lee said, were just anoth er example of his method of "testing our nervous system." Lee's book, which includes contributions by British, American, Russian and Ger man air experts, is the result of an exhaustve checking of sources ranging from photo graphs to interviews with ref ugees who had taken part in Soviet aircraft and missile pro duction. The conclusion he reaches is that the potential large-scale use of atomic weapons by both sides in a war has brought about a situation in which "military action is no longer a major instrument of Dolitical strategy, either So viet or Western." Lee believes that the Rus sians may well be sincere when they discuss proposals for eventual disarmament be cause "in the long run they may believe that they can crip ple the crucial overseas mar kets of the Western powers and show the superiority of their economic system. He writes in the book that Soviet foreign policy is cau tious "and intends to get its victories by probing, infiltrat ing and propaganda rather than by direct military action. ' The one recent exception to prove this rule was the Hun garian revolution of 1956. But that situation, Lee believes, cannot be taken as a test case since it involved actual Com munist territory. In contrast, Lee refers to the Suez crisis of 1956. He writes that "Soviet an nouncements of Communist volunteers pouring into Egypt from China and elsewhere in support of (Egyptian Presi dent) Nasser, and the reported threats to attack London and Paris with long-range rockets, were in fact accompanied by an order to Soviet air tech nicians and pilots to fly away from the danger zone to Syria or the Sudan.!' Shown in History The same caution has been shown throughout Soviet his tory, Lee believes. It was re flected in the Russian lack of action in recent Middle East crises, such as last summer's Anglo-American intervention in Lebanon and Jordan, and in the previous war scare con cerning the Turkish-Syrian frontier. Lee does point out that Khrushchev and other Soviet leaders have shown no fear of a global struggle. He says that Russian military might including airpower and rock ets is equal to 'that of the NATO nations, in some cases is greater He also says that the So viet bomber force has been stockpiling monuclear weap ons and now has more than enough to carry out any as signment it should get. Yet, Lee sees no reason to alter a private British assess ment made on the eve of the Korean War that Russian pol icy is based on "all mischief short of war." One reason for this may be that the 'Russian air defense system is weak, and this "may be the crucial factor in to day's Soviet foreign policy," according to Lee. Simple Instinct "The Kremlin and the Com munist Party . . . have a deeper need overriding their desire to power," he writes. "That is the simple instinct and need to survive. They know how vulnerable and in efficient any radar early-warn ing system can become local ly. They know it is virtually impossible to ring round the USSR with effective air de fense in depth, however much it may be necessary to do this to ensure the survival of the regime in a global thermonu- Herefords Hold Spotlight at 4-H, FFA Fair Wednesday clear war." No Russian or Western com mander, Lee said, can know how long the next war will last, should there be one. He believes that the major plank in Western defense pol icy must remain "maximum nuclear hitting power." In the face of this, Lee ask ed, "how can the Soviet really know in detail how to fight their tank and airborne forces? Can they assess the effect of Western radio counter-measures or the striking power of U.S. carrier forces in the first week of war? Enough to Give Pause "How effective will be So viet flight refueling in time of war? How will they know in time what damage their bombers and the long-range rockets have achieved? This and similar conditions Revolvers Taken From Local Store Three revolvers were taken Tuesday or Wednesday from Hubbard Brothers hardware store, 335 East Main st, Med ford police reported. Police said the revolvers,' each with two-inch barrels and valued about $200, were taken from a display case on the main floor. The crime was discovered by Robert Anton Hubbard, the store operator. According to the police report, an un determined amount of ammu nition was also taken. are enough, Lee believes, to give Khruschev pause, even when the threat of war ap pears to great as it did after his May 27th ultimatum was originally announced. What about the future? Lee believes there is no practical alternative to a scheme of mutual inspection and disarm ament. But he believes it will take a decade or more to work it out.
