Try and Stop Me
-By BENNETT C:R5-
A GOSSIP COLUMNIST, who drops names at the rate of
a hundred an hour, remarked languidly at an after
theater party, "Two months ago today I met the Queen ol
xngiana. a momn ago
TWO MONTHS
AGO TODAY
I MET.,
today I met the Kine of
Belgium. And this after
noon I had tea with a
princess of The Nether
lands." "Dear boy," ob
served an unimpressed
producer, "aren't you get
ting into a rut?"
The late Hollywood ty
coon, Cecil De MUle, never
waa burdened with too large
a bump of modesty. A.
friend in New York once
told him, "My wife and I
are taking a trip around
the world this spring." "What a waste of time," scoffed De Mille.
"Why don't you come out to Hollywood and have lunch with me!"
"Charley Weaver," nS Cliff Arquette, confesses, and without a
gun at his head, too, that one of his all-time favorite jokes is the
one about Grandma Hogg, of Mt. Idy, buying 300 pounds of steel
wool. The reason? "She's gonna knit a stove."

Financial page news:
Business in the U.S. moved
steadily ahead last week, with
indications growing stronger
that 1960 will be a GOOD but
not a BOOM year. The presi
dent of Union Carbide, one
of the nation's very large cor
porations, puts it like this in
an interview with a financial
reporter: v
"There is every evidence
that the economy is in a level
ing out stage. I certainly
think I can say 1960 will not
be a boom year."
ANOTHER business leader,
Henry C. Alexander,
chairman of the board . of
Morgan Guaranty Trust Com
pany of New York, the na
tion's fifth largest commer
cial bank, has this to say:
"I expect business to stay
good for some time to come.
Ye are NOT about to enter
into any sharp recession. On
the other hand, we are not
about to LAUNCH A BOOM
on top of the expansion we've
had since the summer of
1998."
IS THAT bad news?
It might be for the spec
ulators, who flourish and wax
fat in boom periods, but for
the general run of us it's
prety good news.
Booms follow recessions.
RECESSIONS FOLLOW
BOOMS.
So-
If we're not facing a boom
now, we don't need to worry
too much over an impending
recession.
QUESTION:
Why, in our modern
economy, do recessions tend
to follow booms at intervals
of about every other year or
such a matter?
This may be one reason:
Our capacity to produce
seems to exceed our capacity
to CONSUME AT EXISTING
PRICES. (There is of course
no limit to our capacity to
consume if we could find the
wherewithal to pay for all
the things we want.)
So-
Since our capacity to pro
duce seems to exceed our
ability to buy all the things
e'd like to have, inventories
tend to build up in boom
periods. When the inventories
get too big, we have to slow
down on production until the
warehouses are emptied
again.
Then we go into another
boom that lasts until we get
the warehouses filled up.
ANYWAY
If 1960 turns out to be
a good, steady year, with no
boom but with consumption
just about equaling produc
tion, it will turn out to be
better for the average run of
us than a continuing boom
that would be apt to wind up
in another recession.

Administration Wants to Create
National Seashore on Oregon Coast
By A. ROBERT SMITH
Mail Tribune
Washington Correspondent
Washington - Secretary of
the Interior Fred A. Seaton
has for the first time said
plainly the
Eisenh o w e r
Admini s t r a
tion wants to
create a na
t i o n a 1 sea
shore on the
Oregon coast.
But he is
opposed to
several f e a-
A. kobi. smiib lures recom
mended by Gov. Mark Hat
field. And Seaton has steered
clear of the idea of naming
the park for the late Sen.
Richard L. Neuberger.
This was disclosed this week
in the text of a new 30-page
proposed national seashore
bill which Seaton sent Con
gress in hopes it will be en
acted. It would specifically
authorize three national sea
shores - Oregon Dunes, Cape
Cod and Padre Island, Tex.
Heretofore, Seaton has re
fused to endorse specific areas
which had been recommended
for national seashores by the
National Park Advisory
Board. He simply wanted Con
gress to grant him authority
to acquire land and establish
these seacoast parks similar
to Cape Hatteras National
Seashore in North Carolina.
Specific Boundaries
Seaton's proposed new bill
- the sixth seashore bill to
emerge during the past year
since Neuberger started the
campaign in May, 1959 - also
sets out specific boundaries.
This feature was originally
demanded by Rep. Charles O.
Porter so that local residents
would know precisely where
the park would be located
when Congress acted on the
enabling legislation.
The boundaries are on the
whole those specified by the
governor's natural resources
committee.
Sea Lion Caves could be
added to the park in the fu
ture by executive order of
the president, after consulta
tion with the governor, Sea
ton observed. He omitted the
requirement in the Hatfield
proposal which prohibited ad
dition of the Sea Lion Caves
or enlargement of the park
without concurrence of the
governor and the state legis
lature,
Another feature of the Hat
field measure which w a s
dropped by Seaton was a re
quirement that the federal
government make payments
in lieu of taxes to local gov
ernments.
"Studies of the economic
impact of national park es
tablishment indicate that pay
ments in lieu of taxes for a
period of 25 years, as pro
vided for in S. 2898 (the gov
ernor's bill, as introduced by
Neuberger last January), are
probably not required to
bridge the gap in local taxes
occasioned by the purchase of
land for park purposes before
the development and public
use of the park begin to pro
duce additional local revenue
and local taxes," Seaton ex
plained.
Provision Omitted
The Interior Secretary
noted that he had also omit
ted the. provision which
would have given the state of
Oregon primary jurisdiction
over fish and wildlife in the
seashore, but he retained
language authorizing Interior
to enter cooperative agree
ments with the state for fish'
ing and hunting regulation
that will not materially inv
pair park values.
On the question of private
property rights, the new Sea
ton bill accepts the general
prescription of the Hatfield
proposal. Seaton s bill states:
"Any owner or owners of
(opperDistilled

BOURBON
improved property on the
date of its acquisition by the
secretary may, as a condition
to such acquisition, retain the
right of use and occupancy of
his property for noncommer
cial residential purposes for a
term not to exceed 25 years,
or for a term ending at the
death of such owner, the
death of his spouse, or the day
his last surviving child reaches
the age of 21, whichever is the
latest. The owners shall elect
the term to be reserved.
"In any case where such an
owner retains a right of use
and occupancy as herein pro
vided, such right may during
its existence be conveyed or
leased, in whole, but not in
part. The secretary shall pay
to the owner the fair market
value of the property on the
date of such acquisition less
the fair market value on such
date of the right retained by
the owner."
Seaton drODDod thn rpnuirp.
ment that sand dune stabili
zation work be conducted as
prescribed by the Soil Con
servation Service, which is
an agency of the Department
of Agriculture. Seaton's bill
simply says:
May Conduct Programs
"The secretary may conduct
such sand dune stabilization
and erosion control programs
with the Oregon Dunes Na
tional Seashore as deemed
necessary to Insure the protec
tion of man made develop
ments and the natural re
sources of the area, and he
shall secure the advice of oth
er federal and state agencies
to accomplish these pur
poses.'
Seaton's bill retains the
general terms permitting
withdrawal of ground water
and disposal of wastes in the
area of the dunes, for indus
trial purposes, providing these
actions do not "materially im
pair the scenic, scientific and
recreational features of the
seashore."
The bill requires any high
way relocation work to be
underwritten by the federal
