Kennedy's To Give Economy Shot in Arm By HENRY J. BECHTOLD UPI Fininciil Editor New York -(UPD- To the vic tor belongs the spoils. But in this case a sagging economy is among the spoils and our new presi dent's first big task will be to give it a shot in the arm. The present administration has been try- Henry Bechtold ing for the past six months to bring the economy back to life through easier money condi tions and, more recently, In OF SMITH & MEN By Jack Smith (e) lt0 TlmM-Mlftor Syndicate For some time I've been seeking a substitute tor the cocktail. Doctors say that, while one mild apertif may be recom mended to relax the tense man before dinner, eight or 10 probably won't do him any good and may even be harm ful. At worst, his taste -buds may be so embalmed he can't distinguish between thyme and rosemary. At best, he may be late to table. :. Anyway, a man sometimes needs to prove to himself that he Isn't a slave to such deca dent customs as the dally 4-to-1 martini. When I reach home after a day of friction and stress out in the abrasive world, I m tied up like a Greco-Roman wres tler. My hands are knotted into small bloodless rocks re sembling petrified octopi. My stomach is taut as a trampoline. My neck will turn only in noisy, ratchet - like jerks. My optic muscles are stretched like slingshot bands, ready to let go and shoot the eyeballs out of my head. These are the classic symp toms of the contemporary malady, metropolltis, for which the 4-to-l martini has heretofore been the most ef fective and popular specific. ; I've had promising success, however, with my new regi men of mild exercise, hydraul ic therapy and soothing pho nograph music. Yesterday, was typical. I came home- so tense I was one massive tic. I got Into my sweatsuit and went to the garage for my workout. I use an old set of barbells a neigh bor gave to the boys. It is splendid for relaxation. You don't have to lift heavy weights at all. I find that I get plenty of relaxation if I bend over, grasp the bar and Just try to lift it. This stretches the muscles of the back, arms, shoulders, legs and behind the kneecaps.

LAY AWAY NOF wssav ar First Big Task Seen creased spending but bull- ness has not responded. The two candidates continu ally argued about whether or not .the nation was in a reces sion, and apparently Senator Kennedy was more convinc ing with his recession talk. Now the business world will anxiously wait to see what measures he will take to back up his campaign promises. Help May B Too Late There U no doubt he will take some anti-recession steps, but they will not help the economy over the near-term Anti-recession moves take irom.three-to nine months to become effective,' and by that weights, one avoids the dan ger of rupturing some delicate tissue or dropping a cast iron disk on one s foot. Fifteen minutes of this and I was unwound. I could feel the gentle swell of blood in my capillaries. I was ready for the tub. The water should be body temperature. Get In when the tub Is empty and let the water gush over you dancing and bubbling against the weary flesh. I lay back in the tepid whirl. I squeezed my eyes shut and looked at the inside of my eyelids. Their fiery pic tures soon went away. I pull ed the plug. My tensions drained away with the water. I dried with a rough towel, I put on flannel pajamas and lambskin slippers, l played a recording of languid Spanish guitar music. I sank in a deep chair and listened to the rip ple and arabesque of vibrant strings. I was a golden leaf caught in an autumn zephyr. My , wife s voice rang through the mist like .the clash of cymbals. "Didn't you hear me?" she said. "You got a notice this morning from the life Insur ance company. You've lapsed again." "Any more mail?" I mum bled. My zephyr had died down. I was only an old dry leaf, falling to the cold side walk to be swept up. '.'Only a card from Dr. Prag- mire," she said. "He wants you to bring your cavity in." "What's for dinner?" I asked.' "I know you don't like It," she said, "but It was on spe cial. It's liver." I got up and mixed a double martini.

Dr. Marcus Nadler, econo mist of the Hanover Bank, believes that the Democrats, not being able to claim a popular mandate, will be forced to go slow in taking any drastic measures, One thing is sure, mere will be an Increase in spend- inn. Kennedy has been em phatic on that point. This also would have been tne case u Vice President Nixon had won. A. W. Zelomek of the In ternational Statistical Bureau says there is no doubt that the new Congress also will pay greater attention to the Full Employment Act oi mo This is a mandate to Congress to do something about un employment when it reaches about six or seven per cent, It presently Is above five per cent. Meanwhile, the economy continues to drag along. Pro duction Is now about 4 per cent below last January; steel mills still are operating only slightly above 80 per cent of capacity; housing starts are running well below last year; business investment in plant and equipment has leveled off; and corporate profits are down. Effects of Decline Campbell said the steel con suming Industries railroad, machinery makers, appliance manufacturers, and other; now are really beginning to feel the effects of this busi ness decline He calls it a "mild correc tion" in which the durable aoods industries will be hit hardest, and looks for it to be reversed by about mld-isai He sees the steel Industry making its upward move around March when new or ders start to roll in, and ex- nects a steady uptrend in 1062. Retail trade, the mainstay of the economy this year, is expected to continue higher In 1861. The apparent gooo reception of the 1961 model automobiles Indicates a Bet ter year for that Industry. Other favorable signs are that housing starts are ex pected to Increase shortly; farm income will be appreci ably better; personal income continues to rise; exports are rising more rapidly than Im ports; and the Federal Re serve Is following a policy of relatively easy money. The consensus among eco nomists Is for a revival in business sometime next year, but there is a handful of these experts who see the slow down continuing until 1962.

MedfordTribune Noon Edition Page 2A Oregon Supreme Court Decisions Salem - (UPD - Federated co operatives are exempt from Oregon's corporation excise tax, the Oregon supreme court ruled Thursday. Pacific Supply Cooperative won its Multnomah county case against the state tax com mission and the high court upheld Circuit Judge Alfred T. Sulmonetti's decree revers ing the commission order denying the exemption. The cooperative sued for a refund of taxes paid from 1954 through 1957. Pacific Supply was quali fied under the federal internal revenue code as an exempt co operative and exemption from the state tax was taken for granted until two years ago when the tax commission pro posed an assessment for back taxes. In another case the supreme court ordered prison reformer Florence Reed Cook of Eu gene to pay attorney fees for the persons she sued in con nection with a bond election for a park recreational dis trict in Lane county. The decision reversed Lane county Judge William S. Fort, who ruled in favor of Mrs. Cook's opponents but failed to make her pay their attor ney fees.
