'I THURSDAY. DUCLMBLtl 20. ljl.2 MEDFORD MAIL TRIBUNE. MEDFORD. OREGON MEDFORD MAIL TRIBUNE. MEDFORD. OREGON farm Exports for Fiscal 1962-63 To Be About Same Washington - lUPH - The Ag riculture Department says another year of high-level farm exports is developing for American agriculture in fiscal 1962-63. Assuming that there will be no major changes in interna tional tensions, the depart ment said that U.S. agricul tural exports this fiscal year will not differ greatly from last year's record of $5.1 bil lion. Volume will remain firm, nearly equallis.; the previous year's total. Continued Growth Seen The agency said that among the major developments that probably will contribute to another year of large agricul tural exports are continued economic growth in the more industrialized countries and record holdings of gold and dollars in many principal im porting countries. In addi tion, the United Stales will be continuing its aggressive mar ket promotion program to benefit from Increased con sumer purchasing power in the leading dollar markets. For countries lacking suffi cient dollars, exports will be made available under U.S. government - financed export programs. Export assistance, especially through export pay ments, will enable certain U.S. products to be competi tive in world markets. Adverse Effects Possible The department said Ihe Common Agricultural Policy of the Common Market may begin to have adverse effects on U.S. farm exports in 1!)(12- (53. Of particular importance in the CAP Is the system of variable Import levies put into effect last July 10. These levies are designed to offset the difference between world prices of commodities and de sired prices in the Common Market. More than 20 per cent of all U.S. farm exports went lo Common Market countries In fiscal 1961-62. Dollar sales in 1952-63 are expected to be $3.4 billion, while sales under government-financed programs are likely to reach $1.7 billion, the department said. Animal Products Up Exports of animal products in 1962-63 probably will be about 17 per cent above last year's $627 million. Biggest Increases are expected in but ter, cheese, nonfat dry milk, and tallow. Declines are ex pected in exports of poultry meat because of recent Com mon Market regulations. Ship ments of lard likely will be reduced as a result of in creased European production and competition. Little over all change is seen In exports of hides and skins and red mca I . Exports of cnltnn are esti mated at 5 million hairs, slightly more than last year's total of 4.8 million bales. Exports of wheat are ex pected lo total 600 million bushels, compared with a rec ord 716 million bushels in fiscal 1961-62. Exports of feed grains are expected to be about one million tons he low the record 14 million tons of the previous year. Religion in America Church Giving Away Building Fund Nominated as Top Story By LOUIS CASSELS UPI Correspondent The Religious Newswriters Association, a professional society of men and women who cover religion for daily newspapers, is currently con ducting a membership poll to select the 10 biggest news stories of 1962. I have a belated nomina tion to offer. It's the story of a suburban church which gave away its building fund. My RNA colleagues won't need to be told that this is a newsworthy event "Man biles dog" is a relatively com mon occurrence compared with "church gives away building fum'." The church which perform ed this reckless act is Ihe Hil dale Park PresLyterian Church of Cedar Knolls, N.J. Cedar Knolls is a suburban village of about 2,500 persons. Many of its residents com mute to work in Newark or New York City, about 30 miles away. In pome respects, Hildale Park Presbyterian is - typi cal small suburban church. It has a hard-working young pastor, ihe Rev. A. Loy Mc Ginnis, 29. It has a congrega tion of 275 members. And it has growing pains. The tiny white frame church is jam med to overflowing for both services each Sunday morn ing. And the Sunday School has to hold its classes in a nearby public school build ing for which rent is paid. Considers Fund Drive Like tens of thousands of similar congregations, Hildale Park Presbyterian began thinking, over a year ago, of pulling up a bigger and fan cier building, with plenty of Sunday School roomi. The session of the church met lo make plans for a build ing fund drive. So far, every thing was going according to New Boat Licenses May Be Purchased Fxpecfonf Mothers Warned Against Drugs Chicago -- Ilirii Pregnant women should not take any drug in the first three months unless il is essential to the preservation of the mother's health, a San Francisco ob stetrician said here. "We do not know and we may never Irani how many drugs currently in use may atfeel embryonic development In a small percentage of ears," said Dr. Ernest W. Page at the annual meeting of the American Academy of Pediatrics. Salem The new annual boat license for pleasure and commercial crafl registered in Oregon can now be pur chased, the slate marine board has announced. The Marine board also has reminded boal owners who obtained their Certificate of Number in 1960 that the num ber will expire during 1963. Boal owners will receive a notice from the board approx imately three weeks before Ihe number expires. Notices to boat owners whose numbers expire during January have already been mailed; however, Ihe board reported thai a few have been returned due to the boal own ers having changed addresses and not notifying the board of the new address. The board plans to ask the next Legislature to revise the present boating laws enacted by Ihe 195!) Legislature by j streamlining the registration requirements. j In presenting Its plan, . which has already been draft- j ed, the board will point out that Ihe Certificate of Num ber, which is issued on the three-year basis, and the an- . nual boat license could be combined and result in con- j siderable savings in the cost of administration, as well as i eliminate some of the confu sion' which exists regarding the two requirements. There would be no increase in the . present registration fees should tile plan be adopted. The Certificate of Number Is required by Federal law and is issued by Ihe state under the Federal Boating Art of 195S. Salt is used in making soap, j shoe leather, dyes, pottery, i glass and thousands of other : everyday items. mil TOO MUCH BAGGAGE - All s well thai ends well, but how about the start?

Carolina wheie she Is majoring in Journalism. (UP!) the Great American Pattern But then Hildale Park Pres byterian ceased to be a typi cal suburban churl' . A boiler salesman named A. L. Behrens, who Is one of the church's elders, raised a question that is not often se riously debated by churches on the brink of building fund campaigns: "How can we Justify spend ing so much money on our selves when there are thou sands of Christian congrega tions in . other parts of the world in far greater need of new buildings.'" The Rev. Mr. McGinnis and several other members of the session thought the question was worth thinking about - and praying about. Praying is always a dan gerous thing for a session, or a vestry, or a board of dea cons, to do. ft may lead to highly impractical acts. It led Hildale Park Pres byterian to proceed with a building fund drive (which netted $18,000) - and then to give every dollar of the mon ey away, to build a new wing on a mission hospital at Rio Verde, Brazil. At Cedar Knolls, Presbyter ian children still are attend ing Sunday School classes in the public school building. Il l still hard to find a seat at either Sunday service. But no one seems to feel thai these inconveniences are terribly important. On the contrary, the con gregation recently decided to make it a regular policy to contribute to missio,. every year at least one dollar for every dollar spent on local expenses. That will i.iean raising $15,000 a year for missions in addition lo the $15,000 it takes to operate the little white frame church. "We don't feel that we've done anything great or he roic," said the Rev. Mr. Mc Ginnis. "We simply decided it was time for the church to get off its haunches and begin taking seriously this idea that Christians are supposed to be a 'servant people'. "A lot of people warned us thai we were being fool ish . . . that we couldn't con tinue to attract families to our church unless we put up a fancy new building with all the modern comforts. But it hasn't worked out that way. We have families who drive 20 to 30 miles to attend our church. They tell us that they've been hunting for a church that takes it Christian mission rather than itself se riously. "I suppose you could say that we took a chance on sur viving as a local church. But our Lord said, 'Whoever would save his life will lose it, and whoever loses his life for My sake will find It'. "We just took Him at His word. And we're glad did."

Storybook Bavarian Village Readies for Winter Season D 7 By RALPH VILLERS United Press International Garmisch Partenkirchen, Germany - IUPH - This small Bavarian town is one of those rare resorts where it is best to arrive in the dark of night when you cannot see anything except the lighted entrance to your hotel. That makes the morning all the more breath-taking when you roll from your bed, look out the window and are struck by the sight, all about you, of Alps that won't quit. It is nothing short of overwhelm ing to catch sight of the rug ged gray rock and snow trim of the towering mountains all at once, rather than have last year, another 2 million them gradually grow In view passed through), and it knows during a daylight approach to its business well. the valley in which Garmisch- Partenkirchen nestles. Alpine Peaks Bavaria's loftiest alpine peaks hover around the 2.300-foot-high valley, and within sight is the tallest mountain in Germany, the famed Zug spitze, rising 9,720 feet. Germisch, the popular name for this resort of two villages that grew together to become one town, lives by and for its alpine surroundings. Playing host to visitors is its industry (500,000 persons stayed in Garmisch at least one night Now, after the lull of the late fall, it is readying for the second big rush season of ils year. The first is in the sum mer monlhs when the refresh ingly moderate days and mountain paths and trails lure the normal holiday crowd. The second, of course, Is the high winter season, which at tracts the snow birds to ils countless ski trails, skating and other winter sporls. Reward in Itself But for the person neither addicted to the seemingly endless ski trails down the broad mountain slopes, nor lo level or steep (you can have your choice) mountain and forest paths, Garmisch still is a reward in itself. Garmisch is a town out of a storybook. Ils little streets are lined with chalets, their broad eves hanging out over win dows with colorful shutters and balconies rimmed with in tricately worked dark wood railings. The stuccoed fronts of many of the houses and stores are a huge canvas for fresco paint ings, the luftlmalerei, or air paintings, that are a part of Southern Bavaria.

But for visitors who want to gt out among the people (they won't be found in the casino), there are beer restaurants like the Zum Lamm. There you can sit about a long table in a rustic setting of deer and goat antlers and a big porcelain stove, drinking beer from liter steins and watching the locals in animated conversation or playing cards. Garmisch still calls itself the "Olympic Village," dating from its selection as the site of the 1936 Winter Olympic?. The stadia with their ice rinks, ski jumps and bobsled runs still are used by sports enthusiasts. Cable cars and ski lifts reach into the mountains all around Garmisch. The most spectacular run, however, is the 11 miles by cog railway to the 8,697-foot level on the Zugspitze. First the tracks trace through the pastures of the valley, past little storase barns looking for all the world like the face of a cuck oo clock, then past the blue green lake waters of the Eib see, up into the dark green of the forests, and finally, at the timber line, into a two-and-threequarter-mile tunnel cut through the mountain. 'Live for Today' Mood Is Shown by West Berliners By RALPH VILLERS United Press International Berlin -ilinu This one-time capital of Germany, now situ ated 110 miles behind com munism's Iron Curtain in Eu rope, almost compels a visit by any American traveling on the Continent. Aside from The Wall divid ing East and West Berlin, which In itself has tecome a lure for travelers, Berlin of fers an atmosphere unable to be found anywhere else in Europe, and approximated elsewhere only in Hong Kong, which sits virtually surround ed by Red China In the Far East. It's hard to escape an im pression of frantic living for today, if you take even r brief plunge Into the city's night life. In some of the "hotter" spots, it almost looks as if money is going out of style, what with a drink of scotch going at prices up to $5 or more. Dance Spot Bui neither is it necessary to "go for broke" to catch a glimpse of Berlin's famed. frantic night life. Young, and not too wealthy. Wrjt Bcr Sidewalks and sidewalk cafes, neatly glassed in and heated against the chill of winter, are crowded. The stores of the Kurfuersten damm, that most famous of Berlin shopping streets, are filled with anything you want to buy from smart clothes to expensive silverware ar.d cameras. Relics of War Most of the relics of the war are gone, although obvi ous signs of damage are about and empty lots. Pvpn noun the city center testify to build ings mat once were there. And right in the heart of th shopping area stands the Me morial church, or more cor rectly the facade,' vestibule and bomb-damaged steeple ot a once magnificient structure, deliberately left as a remind er of the war. Berlin, once known as an architecturally heavy city, has taken on a modern look! Broad expanses of glass and trim lines mark the new build ings. The Kongresshalle, the convention center which was the gift of the people of America, is just about the most futuristic of buildings liners flock to a place called lo DC (olnd anywhere, and the Rcsi, as unique a fun and nH5 Dcen oubbed both "the dance spot as is found any- pregnant oyster," which 11 where.

Hania Quarter The Hansa Quarter with ils blocks of unique apartments designed by world - famed architects, the quarter's ahead- of-the-times churches (one with a skeletal bell tower pushing skyward), and the Opera House with its glass wall all reflect a new archi tectural spirit in Berlin. The hardest part about vis iting Berlin is in leaving. It can even verge on the weepy, if, in that great semi-circle that is the Tomplehof air port terminal, the air sudden ly is filled with the loudspeaker-blared words and mu. sic of "Auf Wiedersehen" as you walk to your plane. Finger Painting With Cake Icing Suggested Raytown, Mo.-lUPIl-Children can have a hand in the baking and be creative at the sam time by doing finger icing, Mrs. Laura Burnett, of Ray town, reports.

Mrs. Burnett recently introduced a kindergarten class to the fin ger Icing with such good re. suits that teachers plan to make it a regular thing. ALL-GIRL CREW - Wanted - an all-girl crew.
