PRESIDENT MUST ACT TO REASSURE BUSINESS
At its low on the day following Black Monday, May 28,
In Wall Street, Transitron was down 85 per cent from its
1961-62 hieh. Lionel was down 80 per cent, General Instru
ment and Avnet were down over 78 per cent, Brunswick,
Chris Craft and Vendo were down 72 to 73 per cent and
TelAutograph was down 71 per cent. Behind these shockers
came. another list of stocks, including such famous names as
Polaroid and Texas Instruments, which were off from 52 to
67 Der cent. After them came a third list, dominated by such
greats as National Cash Register, International Business Ma
chines and Zenith, which were off 40 to 45 per cent.
A sensible observer simply cannot blame a crackup of
such violence on President Kennedy's crushing of the steel
price increase and the spreading fears since then that the
administration is anti-business! Only the hysterically biased
could find a basis for lumping such individual stock debacles
into what already is slated to go into the history books under
the title "The Kennedy Crash."
Primarily responsible for the collapse of these glamour
stocks was the plain fact that in 1981 they ware bid up to
Incredibly unrealistic prices by greedy speculators confi.
dent there always would be one more sucker left to bail
them out when they sold. The entire market was pushed
lo such fantastically overpriced levels In late 1981 that,
months ago, hard-headed pros at home and abroad began
unloading, moving Into tax-exempt bonds, U.S. Govern
ment securities, cash in the bank.
Long before Kennedy's attack on the steel price hike, It
was no secret in Informed circles that the major Inflation of
post-World War II was dead and that buying stocks at over
inflated levels in anticipation of further inflation was stupid.
Long ago the hot-hot glamor issues started to get cold under
the increasing pressure of the Securities & Exchange Com
mission's investigation, the knowledge that the SEC's probe
would uncover appalling instances of unethical actions as
well as Illegal manipulation in the sale of new stock issues
to the oublic.
This is the real, unemotional tale of the now utterly un-
glamorized glamor stocks.
Nevertheless, the straight fact also is that the way Ken
nedy intervened in the steel crisis and the massiveness of his
intervention intensified the stock price decline.
It is obvious to any one who will hear and read that there
has been a mounting uneasiness among responsible business
men about the long-term implications of Kennedy's act. No
person who understands what has made the United States sc
powerful and prosperous a nation can afford to shrug off the
Imperative need for clarification of the Kennedy administra
tion's relationships with the business communitynow.
When a man of Henry Ford's background as an inde
pendent warns, "I fear that the enormous power that can
be mustered by determined and resourceful president
might be used increasingly to impose informal, but none
theless direct, controls on the legitimate actions of business
and, possibly, of labor" - it is lime for Kennedy to think
through what he can do to allay that fear.
When even economists who are staunchly liberal Demo
crats pleaded with the President to recongize that American
industry is in a rising profits squeeze and something must be
done to ease the squeeze, it is time for the President to call
in these economists and ask what can be done to ease the
squeeze.
When, almost to a man, businessmen unite to urge Con
gress to reject a bill the administration has designed to give
them tax relief, it is time for Kennedy to figure out ways
he can retreat gracefully, compromise and lay the basis for
the sort of tax relief that will be welcomed.
Of course, the President isn't "anti business"! He has
made it abundantly clear that he wants to be remembered
as a President who led the United States to new heights of
might, prosperity and greatness, not one who undermined
it by inviting an era of vicious conflict between government
and business. - ' .
Words of reassurance to the business community aren't
enough in view of the extent of today's misunderstandings
and fears. There are plenty of things the President can do
and the time to do them is now.

Special Education Workshop Planned
The a d m i n is tration and
touching of special education
programs for able and gifted
children will be one of sev
eral workshops offered by the
University of Oregon school
of education this summer.
It will be held from June
18 through 29. Emphasis of
the workshop will be on the
practical questions of admin
istration, and on concrete
techniques for teachers.
The workshop is designed
to handle special oducntion
programs for the talented, the
educationally alert and the
gifted, in depth, rather than
to survey the programs.
Administrative problems of
obtaining community support,
and of the establishment,
maintenance and expansion of
such programs, will be ex
plored. Also included on the
workshop program will be
suggestions for the selection
of teacher personnel and pu
pils.
Richard Hinze, assistant
school superintendent. Ingle
wood, Calif., will direct the
workshop.
Registration for the work
shop, which is primarily de
signed for graduate students,
will be June 18. Three hours
of credit may be earned.

Court of Appeals
Rules on Boycott
Washinglon-HIPD-Thc U. S.
Court of Appeals ruled Thurs
day that a union can organize a
secondary boycott against the
products of an employer
against whom It is striking,
provided it is peaceful and
does not hinder commerce.
The court made the ruling
in a 3-0 decision, the first of
its kind under a 1050 amend
ment to the Taft-Hartley Act.
The case involved Team
sters Local 760 in Yakima,
Wash., and Joint Council No.
28. The union went on strike
against Tree Fruits. Inc. It
then organized a consumer
boycott of the fruit oulside
Safeway Stores In Seattle.
The National Labor Rela
tions Board, on the complaint
of Tree Fruits, ruled the
Teamsters engaged In an un
fair labor practice.
The court said there Is noth
ing to show the union violated
the law against coercive pick
eting. It said the board wrong
ly held that all consumer
picketing at the premises of a
secondard employer is for
bidden.
The court sent the case back
to the board to determine if
there is any evidence of coer
cion against Safeway. ,
The Retarded Child
I get so many sad letters
from people, letters that tug
at my heart because they tell
me of a re
tarded child
who naturally
p r e s ents a
great problem.
As I often say,
most of these
unhappy par
ents keep
traveling
around the
country from
doctor to doctor or clinic to
clinic spending more money
than they can afford, or
spending money which really
ought to be used for the edu
cation of their highly intelli
gent children.
Unfortunately, most of us
doctors haven't the heart to
tell these people that no one;
anywhere, knows how to build
up a brain that has not de
veloped properly. Usually all
that anyone can do is to teach
the child to do everything he
can do with what ability he
has. Usually, I think it is
much kinder to toll the par
ents the truth, and to say that
if we knew of anyone in the
world who could help them,
we would send them to him.
I wish everyone who has to
face this terrible problem
could read the wonderful
book by the eminent writer,
Mrs. Pearl Buck, "The Child
Who Did Not Grow Up" (John
Day, Publishers). Mrs. Buck
tells how she was allowed to
go from physician to phy
sician until, finally, a kindly
children's specialist told her
the truth.
One thing I like lo tell these
people is that they mustn't
blame themselves for what
happened. So often they are
full of guilt, which is com
pletely unjustified. There
nothing the parents did that
caused the illness, and there
is nothing that they could
have done to save the child
In thousands of cases, the
child was abnormal from the
moment of conception, and
hence nothing that happened
during the pregnancy was
significant.
Asioeiation Holpi Parents
Today there is an associa
tion, the purpose of which is
to help parents with retarded

children. This is the National
Association for Retarded Chil
dren, with offices at 388 Park
ave. South, New York 18,
N.Y.
There are also a number of
books which can greatly help
the mother who is perhaps
out on a lonely ranch or farm,
and who cannot afford to send
her child to an expensive
school.
Another point that I often
make when people with a re
tarded child are debating
whether r not to put him in
a spfcial school, is that in
such a place, the child is like
ly to be much happier. Why?
Because when a retarded child
is playing with children of
normal intelligence, he is con
stantly being made unhappy
because he cannot compete
with others.
They will not accept him.
Perhaps when the boys divide
up to play baseball, neither
team will accept them, and
this hurts. When he is put
with only retarded children,
he is much happier because he
can compete with them and
be accepted by them.

Irrigators Warned
About Power Lines
Metal pipes' will conduct
electricity as readily as power
lines, a Pacific Power and
Light company rural service
specialist warns in the com
pany's annual reminder that
irrigator should use caution
when moving long lengths of
pipe during the irrigation sea
son. Lee Hansen, PP and L's ru
ral service supervisor, said the
practice of upending irriga
tion pipes 'o remove sand and
silt can be extremely danger
ous in the vicinity of power
lines.
"All farmers and employees
should make a mental note of
the location of all power lines
in the vicinity before moving
any pipe or mobile sprinkler
system equipment and should
always be alert to avoid any
contact with the electric
lines," Hansen said.

Newt and Notes
From Camp White
By SID HOLLINGSWORTH
A significant movement in
an age of catastrophe is under
way in the enlargement of the
Civil Defense program. It is
called medical self-help and
goes beyond the elementary
first aid training.
The Veterans administra
tion has started training its
employees in medical self-help
and is furthering the program
throughout the nation at VA
field stations, it is announced.
The course was developed
by the Public Health Service
and is approved by the Amer
ican Medical association, the
Red Cross and other agencies.
In contrast to first aid, which
provides information on what
to-do until the doctor comes,
the medical self help course
gives training in what to do
when no doctors are available.
The engineering division
has started to install about
600 new screens in the win
dows of domiciliary buildings
which have not been replaced
before. The screens were
made at the station by a mem
ber detail who volunteered to
do this work. They have been
on the job since December,
and 400 screens have been
completed.
George Butts, an expert
cabinet maker, has been in
charge of the project. He says
the 600 will be completed be
fore July, when he plans to
leave.
The other members who
have worked continuously on
the project are M. G. Newton,
M. Dowton, George Henry,
E. H. Clayburn, Les Tirmin
and Nels Johanson.
"This has been the best and
most helpful undertaking the
engineering division has ac
complished in the interests of
the program of rehabilita
tion," Burt Sims, engineering
officer, declared.
Chuck Ice, labor foreman
in the engineering division,
is in Portland VA hospital
this week where he is under
going surgery for a leg injury,
arising from an aggravated
war wound.
Although the VAVS discon
tinues its entertainment pro
gram during July and August,
a number of activities will be
carried on as usual by volun
teers, and special events, in
cluding sightseeing tours and
picnics.
The June picnic schedule
started with one held Monday
evening in the picnic area
near the stadium, sponsored
by the VFW auxiliary. The 50
Plus members will picnic at
the station on the ISth. On
Sunday, June 17, the Blue
Star Mothers will give their
annual chicken dinner at
Grants Pass. Then two more
picnics at home will be held
on the 19th and 20th, with
the Woman's Relief Corps and
the Legion auxiliary sponsors.
The recreation department
has worked out a schedule of
bus tours, seven of them to
Crater Lake during July and
August. The American Gold
Star Mothers sponsor summer
tours and their schedule calls
for trips to Jacksonville,
Grants Pass and Crater Lake.
The Blue Star Mothers,
Grants Pass, American Legion
auxiliary, Ashland, Military
Order of Lady Bugs and the
VFW auxiliary also will spon
sor Crater Lake trips. The
VFW has one on order for
June 28 to Squaw lake.
The bus tours will start
June 13, and continue through
the summer, the last one
scheduled Sept. 26 to Oregon
Caves, sponsored by the VFW
auxiliary.
The American Red Cross,
headed by Marie Rehling, the
American Legion auxiliary,
with Polly Offutt in charge,
and the VFW auxiliary, Fran
ces Zundel, chairman, will
continue to maintain offices
in the post office building for
special attention to the needs
of domiciliary members
through the summer months.
The present gray lady staff
of the Red Cross consists of
Mrs. Jennie Creager, Mrs. H.
A. Ditsworth, Mrs. Mamie
Bloomfield, Mrs. Fred Rehl
ing, Mrs. Roy Stanley, Mrs.
Ralph Barnes, Mrs. A. Wat
tenberg, Mrs. Minnie Zahnow,

Power Official
Opposes Infertie
Washington - (UPD - A
vate power official from At
lanta, Ga., Thursday opposed
funds for designing a trans
mission line between Califor
nia and the Pacific Northwest.
Harllee Branch Jr., presi
dent of Southern Company,
said he appeared before a
Senate Appropriations sub
committee as a representative
of the U.S. Chamber of Com
merce in opposition to the
Bonneville Power administra
tion request.
He termed the proposal to
spend $500,000 for the extra
high voltage transmission
line an "entering wedge" for
the construction of a federal
interregional power grid
which might cost up to $342
million.
Branch said it represented
"unwarranted competition"
by the government with pri
vate power companies. He
said the latter were willing to
build an interconnection be
tween the two regions.
Concern Voiced in
Home Foreclosures
Washington -IUP11- The gov
ernment for the first time of
ficially expressed concern to-i
day over "the rising number'
of home foreclosures."
The census bureau said
that, "prompted by the con
cern," it would make a six-,
city survey of recently fore-,
closed mortgages to find out-,
why homeowners could not
keep up payments. ,.
Last year's foreclosures,
were nearly 22,000 above H
1960. It was the highest total
since 1940. "
In 1961, according to gov
ernment figures, mortgages
were foreclosed on 73,074 non-
farm properties. Most were)';
private houses.

GOOD ADVERTISING
REALLY SELLS!
When you tell them, they know. But when you
sell them, they buy! And buying makes the
difference in your business profits.
Apply this same thinking to your advertising.
A listing in a business directory tells the pub
lic that you're in business. A timely, pointed
ad in the Mail Tribune Classified Section tells
'em . . . and sells 'em! A Want Ad shows the
customers that you have what they want right
now . . . and gives them good reasons for buy
ing it right now.
When you have something to sell . . . use the
advertising medium that knows the difference
between telling and selling. Use the Want Ads
. . . they rryke the profitable difference!
