What effect is it likely to have on the U. S. budget? Where are we in the business cycle now and where are we heading? Here are informed answers to questions which millions of Americans surely are asking. Q. What impact did the Cuba crisis have on our economy? A. Very little, because it stopped where and when it did. The rise in spending traceable to the Cuba flare-up is esti mated at S200 million or less - picayune in a SB4 billion an nual budget and not enough to change the picture at all. There have been no major increases in spending programs by businessmen or consumers b3sed on the crisis; it was too short-lived. The strong stand taken by President Kennedy and the apparent removal by the Soviets of their missiles from Cuba have perked up psychology - a plus for our economy. Relief over the results to date has added strength to our stock market - another plus. Whatever impact the crisis has had has been on the plus side, but fundamentally our economy is just about where it was pre-Oct. 22. Q. What effect is the crisis likely to have on the U, S. budget? A. The administration's assumption in drawing up the budget to be submitted by the President in January is that the struggle with Russia wiil continue indefinitely, but with out either war or significant relaxation of tensions. Thus, the prospect is that the new budget - !o cover the year be ginning next July - will call for spending of more billions for defense and space activities. But to help offset these increases Kennedy is slashing spending requests for civilian programs. The budget isn't firm yet, but it's moving toward I completion and it is what Washington experts call a middle : of-the-road type of budget. It will be a record peacetime budge! and there will be a deficit. That's taken for granted. But Kennedy is rejecting calls for big spending hikes because he still plans lo push hard for and hopes to win substantial tax reductions for individuals and corporations next year and he doesn't want to risk a budget deficit that might encourage Congress lo turn down his tax cut proposals. Q. Where are we in the business cycle now? A. Moving sluggishly ahead. There are some bright spots, notably in autos, where sales are amazing even the optimists. Steel demand finally is climbing again, reflecting the auto boom and the fact that cutting of steel inventories is run ning its course. Paced by auto sales, retail sales in October hit a peak for any month. But over-all, we're not really getting anywhere. We're silting on a very high plateau, marking time. Q. Where are we heading? A, For more of the same, assuming no war or alt-out mobilization and unless aggressive r.ction is taken to ac celerate our growth. The new tax credit and liberalized depreciation rules well may stimulate businessmen to spend more on plants and for your WINTER VACATION take Samsonite Silhouette Luggage s elegant luprgnpe, without n lock in si&rlit Ladies' Hat Sot $20.00 Ladies' Beauty Case J25.00 ladies' 24" Pullman $32.50 Men's 21" Companion $27.50 Men's 2 Suiter $42.50 tl!

O. How can we get the economy moving strongly up again? A. There is extraordinary widespread agreement, cross ing lines of economic thinking and politics, that the answer lies in substantial, across-the-board tax reduction. This would stimulate consumer spending, it would thereby take up the stack in plant capacity, it would spur businessmen to invest more in plants and equipment, it would give Americans in creased incentive to go into new, risk ventures. President Kennedy is pledged to ask for these tax re ductions as soon as Congress convenes. We have been in a cycle of slow growth since 1355. There are no signs we'll break out of the cycle until Congress re moves the drag our tax structure exerts on our economy every time it tries to push ahead. iabbif Marketing Group To Assess Operation of Year In the Day's News By FRANK JENKINS You've heard, perhaps, of the amateur miner who stuck his pick into what he thought was a deposit of acres of pure gold. For a few hours, in his mind, he was rich beyond the dreams of avarice. Then an experienced miner came along and told him that what he had found was iron pyrites, or FOOLS' GOLD. HIS COUNTERPART lives in Irvington, N. J., and his name is Leonard Sherman. Leonard went down to the ir vington post office the other day and bought 50 four-cent stamps for $2. Before he had time to stick them on fetters and mail them, the story broke that these particular stamps were boo-boos on the part of the U. S. Post Office Department and because they were boo-boos and only a few hundred of them had been is sued they would be priceless in the eyes of stamp collectors -worth, maybe, a HALF MIL LION DOLLARS. But he has now teamed the Post Office Department has decided to cancel its boa-boo by the simple process of print ing MILLIONS of the boo booed stamps. WHAT A JOLT! the Bureau of Engraving and Printing (which prints the postage stamps and the mon ey) made a similar boo-boo, and a few of them got out into circulation, Stanley J. Hodziewich, chief of what the Post Office De partment calls its philatelic section, recalls this morning that one o these 1918 boo boos (a 14-certt airmail stamp) recently sold at auction for $9,000.

Purpose is assisting all rabbit raisers in marketing rabbits phis pro moting the best possible work ing relations between the growers and processors. The association is a business or ganization and deals primarily with marketing problems, it was pointed out. "By working together as a group we can place rabbits as a unit on the market and re ceive more profit," a club spokesman explained. "Dur ing the last year rabbits have received a higher price than flUlESE collectors who are willing to pay fantastic prices for scarce and unusual articles are a part of our af fluent society.

Jt was tike this: In printing the stamps ; (which are yellow a pressman ! (presumably) fed a sheet oti them in upside down. As a result, the lower portion o j the stamps, which should have been yellow, came out a blank white, and the 4-cent designa tion, which should have been j in the lower left-hand corner, came out in the upper right hand corner. , in some manner unknown, j this upside-down sheet got in to circulation and the New Jersey man bought 50 of j them. BUT -You may ask How does that make the boo-booed stamps so valuable? TT'S LIKE this: j As Gertrude Stein, the American novelist and poet whose weird diction made her famous, would have put it, "a stamp is a stamp is a stamp is j a stamp." But an unintcntton- j ally boo-booed stamp is a j RARITY. Because it is an un-1 intentional rarity, stamp col-: lectors are wilting and eager : to pay a price for it that is : out of a!! proportion to its in-: trinsic value. Which is to say: It's a plain case of SUPPLY AND DEMAND. The boo booed stamps are scarce. So collectors are willing to bid up the price to get them. Just like buttons. A common, ordi nary, everyday button is a button is a button is a button, to carry Gertrude Stein's lit erary style a little farther. But an old, RARE button is a collector's item and com mands a price commensurate ; with Its rarity. fpHE POST Office Dcpart-- ment's face, of course, is red. But it has an alibi. Its alibi is that such things don't happen very often. The last time was back in 1918, when Injury Reported in Medford Accident ! Robert James Summers, 18 Jeannette si., notified city po lice Thursday afternoon that his vehicle had been damaged by another vehicle while park ed in front of his residence. Pauline Thompson, 85, of route i, box 205, Gold Hill, was slightly injured about 3 p.m. Wednesday when the car in which she was a passenger collided with a pickup truck at (he intersection of North ivy and West Fifth jts. According to Medford po lice, she was passenger in a sedan operated by Raymond Cogiey Thompson, 85, of the same address. He was cited for not having an operator's license with him and failing to yield the right of WBy to s vehicle.
