Broiler Chicken
Producers Face
Drop in Prices
Washington -IIOT- Govern
ment economists have warned
there is a cost-price 3queee
coming this winter for pro
ducers of broiler chickens.
The Agriculture Depart
ment said that marketing cf
broilers will begin to increase
late this year. The result will
be a drop in prices.
The department said prices
late this year and early in
1963 are likely to be substan-.
tially below the lewis for the
same period a year ago.
Costs Going Up
While prices for broile-s
are falling, producers are
probably going to find their
costs going up.
An Agriculture Department
report on the poultry and eg?
situation noted that the co.it
of baby broiler chicKi already
has risen in recent weeks. And
it said that some tu -trier in
creases are likely.
This forecast of lowt-'r chick
en prices coupled wii higher
costs is apparently the result
of a spring and summer of
good broiler prices. From lat
May through mid-September,
broiler prices have rren rela
tively good far above last
year's depressed levels. As a
remit, many producers owe
again seem willing lo increase
production.
New National Sport
'Knocking the Monument' Gaining
In Popularity Among Congressmen
LF.TTER FINDS WAY
Albuquerque, N.M. - IUPH -A
letter addressed to "Alba
Turkey, New Mexico," has
found its way to this city.

By DICK WEST
United Pros International
Washington -IUPD- The past
couple of years have seen the
development of a great new
national sport,
ranking in
popular-
kli - H!ltv some
where be
tween shuffle
board and
sack races. It
is called
"knocking the
monument.
wen and the fun
comes in thinking up jocular
ways to describe the proposed
design for the Franklin D.
Roosevelt Memorial.
All that is needed to partici
pate is to know that the de
sign envisions an abstract ar
rangement of towering con
crete slabs.
What I regard as the sport's
finest hour came this week
when the House of Represen
tatives voted to send the de
sign back to the memorial
commission for revision.
Preparatory to the en
gagement, some of the con
gressmen took batting prac
tice on a bill to authorise
$10 million for construction
of a national aquarium in
the capital.
Rep. H. R. Gross (R-Iowa),
described the projected aquar
ium as a "platinum-lined fish
bowl," a "gilt-edged fish
bowl," a "glorified bath tub
for fish."
He suggested that rather
than blow $10 million on a
piscatorial container, House
members should stock their
new swimming pool with crea
tures of the fiecp.
The House passed the
aquarium bill anyway, but it
got everyone warmed up for
monument kitocking when the
time came lo consider the
FDR Memorial design.
"It is like a modern feed
ing lot with windbreaks on
all sides," commented Rep.
Nearl Smith, (D-Iowa). "Ot
ersized bookendi," said Rep.
Paul F. Schenk (R-Ohio).
"An nt's eye view of a
cemetery, contributed Rep.
Harold M. Ryan (D-Mich),
vho alio likened it to a
"handball court." And so it
we-nt.
One proposed solution is to
convert the site reserved for
the monument into a "living"
memorial, such as a formal
garden or a tourist center.
Or, adopting Gross' plan,
they could put fish in the new
congressional swimming pool
and call it "The Franklin D.
Roosevelt Memorial Aquarium."
'Pressure' Seen in Stockpile Contract
Washington - UIPII - A gov
ernment accountant agreed
Thursday that the "abrupt"
signing of nickel stockpile
contracts with George M.
Humphrey's mining compa
nies justified an inference
that "extreme pressure" was
applied to government nego
tiators. But the accountant, Louis
Brooks, said he knew of no
such pressure-or other irregu
larity - in negotiations for
contracts with the former
treasury secretary's Hanna
Mining Co.
Brooks, a deputy director in
the General Services Admin
istration, said at the opening
of a new round of Senate hear
ings that he hesitated to char
acterize as improper the ab
sence of right-to-audit clauses
in the contracts.

'Your husband is a bis oc GROUCH!
Mrs. K. F. - Suddenly he
wants to try a solo vacation
in Lakewood.
Mr. K. ". - Others doit.
I'd like to experiment, just
once.
...
Mrs. K. F. - We're married
37 years and whenever we
went anywhere it was always
together. Now my husband
comes up with the bright idea
of trying out a week in Lake
wood alone. He says he just
wants to see how it feels.
Ordinarily I'd k"p quint
about this and tell him to do
what he wants. I'd be sure
he'd miss me after the first
two days. But there's a new
arrival In our apartment
house, a bleached-blinde wi
dow, and my husband has
been walking her to the sub
way in the morning, and car
rying her groceries in the eve
ning. I have an uneasy feel
ing that she's planning a week
in Lakewood, too. If she Is,
then my place would be right
along at my husband's side,
as in the past 37 years.
His sudden insistence on
going alone this time makes
me wonder what's up.
...
Mr. K. F. - This Is a free
country and I can't tell our
lady neighbor when and
where to spend her free time.
If she should wind up in
Lakewood at the same time
I'm there, I can't help it.
Bertha should accept it as a
coincidence.
From my point of view, my
idea of going alone is to find
out just how dependent I am
on Bertha, and whether I
can pack, unpack, eat right,
make friends and find things
to do, on my own. I've seen
other happily married men
spend a week at a resort
alone, while their wives were
elsewhere - on long trips to
Europe or visiting relatives.
After all these years of lean
ing on Bertha, I'm curious to
see whether I can navigate
alone.
Her suspicions are ridicu
lous. I love Bertha dearly,
and she knows it.
...
The Council - Since it's a
free country for this free
wheeling widow, it's a free
country for Mr. F., too. Free
enough for him to quietly
change' his plans and either
go to Lakewood before or aft
er the lady, or vacation some
where else. It's asking a lot
of a wife of 37 years, not only
to stay home but to be equan
imical about a husband alone
at a resort at which an at
tractive lady-friend on the
loose has checked in at the
same time.
Separate vacations in the
course of a long, solid mar
riage, are often a good idea.
For some couples they con
stitute the pause that refresh
es. A few days apart and they
can see each other with new
and eager eyes. Conversely,
a marriage is in a bad way
when one mate stays close
to the other because of dis
trust. Sorry indeed is a va
cation where Mrs. F. comes
along, not because she likes
the gardenspot destination, not
because of the swimming and
the cuisine, but to keep an
eye on Mr. F. The sine qua
non of the separate vacation
is, of course, complete faith
in each other.
Here we have an instance
of incomplete faith, possibly
with good cause. And even if
Mr. F. can allay his wife's
'misgivings as to his attitude
toward the female neighbor
living alone, he can't quiet
her suspicions as to the lat
ter's motives if she turns up
at the same Lakewood hotel
during the same week as Mr.
F.
In the long run, Mr. F. will

be smart to keep his separata
vacation truly separate. That
means separate from the wid
ow, too. There are plenty of
alternate resorts, hundreds of
them, where he can try bis
experiment on how it feels
to be a ay on one s own. And
he can keen his destination
secret. Time enough to re
sume his escort service for
the lady when they both re
turn. Her eligibility clouds the
nrpsent nlan with smoke. And
you know, Mr. F., what they
say about wnere mere s
smoke. It could be from dry
ice instead of fire, but it's
damaging.
