(UPI) Cigar Makers Seek Buildup of Trade With United States NEW YORK (UPI) - What ever else Cuba's neighbors in the areas south of our borders may have thought of the Castro take over, it made one group happy tobacco growers. They wont to work in a hurry to bid for the U. S. import trade in leaf, and in finished cigars as well, although in terms of units, according to the I Cigar Manufacturers Associa tion Inc., imported cigars are but a small portion of the tre mendous number wnicn are smoked in this country each year. Mexico Takes Lead Mexico has been one of the Latin-American nations to seek a buildup in its cigar trade with the United States, and one of its firms has drawn a bead on dealings in what is known in the trade as the class G cigar, which sells for above 20 cents. A former owner of the Romeo y Julictta factory in Havana, Senor .lose Reigada, set up a company in Mexico City last December, establishing the Fa brica de Tobacos Reina Isabel, S. A. The. firm olfers nine dif ferent shapes of cigars in the upper-bracket price range, through the distributorship of "21" Club Selected Hems, Ltd., an affiliate of the "21" club in New York. By year's end, imports from Mexico arc expected to show a sharp increase. The Philippines, which always had a substantial share of the import trade in the United States, arc likewise expected to show a bulge in volume of trade with the United Slates in 1963 as comDarcd with 1962. Much ot the drive for In creased sales by cigar makers in foreign nations has been built around hopes for replacement of the Havana leaf cigar. The embargo on Cuban to bacco and cigars was declared in February, 1962, but U. S. cigar makers had been working for some time to build up their storks of Havana leaf in ex pectation of the political crisis which finally happened. The CMA says that the stock piling began in 1959. and esti mates that two to three times the normal volume of Cuban tobacco was on hand in this country when the embargo went into effect. A CMA spokesman said that by employing blend ing which "stretched" the sup- Ely, there Is enough Cuban to acco leaf lo last the domestic makers through 1964. Others May Follow Makers of cigars here watch the Mexican effort with con siderable interest. The 1962 consumption ot cig ars in the United States, the CMA reported, was 6,947.000,000 units; the Department ot com merce estimated their retail value at $640 million. The class O cigar sales were put at about 8.3 per cent of the retail value of all sold, about $53 million, a not inconsiderable stake for the foreign maker to seek. The department put Imported Cigar lUjrts at 22.059,000 in 1962. Exporters lo the United j Stales included not only the i Philippines and Mexico, but I I Brazil, The Netherlands, Den mark, the Canary Islands, Jam aica, the Dominican Republic, and Germany, with a scattering of others. Blacktopping Starts On 11th Street Contractor's crews began blacktopping a portion of 11th St. Wednesday, according to Mcdford Public Works Director Vernon Thorpe. The improvement project is being done by Virgil Anderson Construction company. It in volves a one-block area between Willamette st. and Ashland ave. Completion is expected by Sept. 30, Thorpe said. Modify cannon laws on mixed marriages. Reunion Hoped Both Catholics and Protest ants are hopeful that the coun cil s labors will smooth the pathway toward eventual re- union of the divided Christian family. But the primary objec tive of the council, proclaimed by the late Pope John XXIII and forcefully reiterated by Pope Paul VI, is internal re form the "renewal and mod ernization of the Catholic church itself. This wiill not be acheived without a battle.

Mrs. F.L. She hasn't touch ed her violin since her children were born. Madge I. There isn't time or energy now for developing my musical skill. Mrs. F.L. We made great sacrifices to help Madge pur sue her love of music. At a time when money was scarce, we bought her an expensive vio lin and paid for six years of topnotch instruction. We took her to concerts and provided her with recordings by virtuo sos. But she uses her children as the excuse for letting cob webs grow across her fiddle. Even her husband can't under stand this. Madge I. I have no patience with people like my mother who say, look at so-and-so, she's married and has children and can still paint, practice, design, write or what-have-you. Those women either have a slew of help, or they neglect their home. husband, and children. My hus band chimes in now, but he never studied music and he thinks it's easy, like knitting. It's too big a job for now. The Council: Not all those gals who juggle home, husband, children and a personal project are weaitny, well-stalled, or ne glectful. Nor are they super gals, Madge. They're just re alistic, sensible, and fair to the family and themselves. So, by allotting a smidgeon of time each day as "mine all mine to do as I wish in," they keep their own little iron in the fire from the wedding-day on. It's a matter of wanting, of deter mining, and of organizing. A helpful way of looking at your music is suggested by Mrs. Ar thur J. Goldberg. In her new book, "The Creative Woman," she advises girls to hold fast to a passionate interest be sides homcmaking. Regard this as "another child," she coun sels. Don't feel guilty about spending time and strength with it. Then, when your flcsh-and-blood children are grown. you won't have to cling to them. You 11 have your special "ba by," Madge your music lo occupy, warm, and fulfill you. 11 to Dec. 8 of last year, man aged to take up only four of the 70 items on its agenda, and did not complete action on any. The slow pace of the first ses sion resulted in part from the necessity of getting organized and working out rules of pro cedure. Dissatisfaction Reflected But it also reflected the sharp dissatisfaction of most counciil fathers with the draft docu ments which were placed before them for debate. The comis sions which prepared the drafts, or "schemata", were dominated by conservatives of the Roman Curia, who did not sympathize with Pope John's desire for "renewal" and who opposed the holding of the council in the first place. The most significant accom plishment of the first session was to demonstrate that a very large majority of the 2,500 coun cil fathers were strongly in favor of Pope John's progress policies. During the nine months that the council has been in recess, committies have been at work recasting the drafts which the fathers found too reactionary. and boiling down the 70 items on the original agenda to 17 documents which will be placed before the second session. Since June, this wholesale re vision process has been carried out under the watchful eye of Pope Paul, who is possibly even more progressive, and cer tainly more impatient for ac tion, than his saintly predeces sor. For these reasons, most Vati can observers are inclined to share the view of Joseph Car dinal Ritter of St. Louis that things will move much faster at the forthcoming session. Language May Change The first completed document to emerge from the council may deal with liturgical re forms, including the long-awaited permission to use the lan guage of the people rather than Latin in some portions of the mass. The bishops spent three weeks debating this subject at the first session, and agreed almost unanimously on the basic principles which they wished to be incorporated in the document. A commission headed by Arcadio Cardinal Lar raona has worked through the Adjustment During Early School Year Difficult for Some A turkey raised lo market age in about 28 weeks requires be tween 75 and 100 pounds of varied feed. By DAVID NYDICK UPI Education Specialist Adjustment during the early weeks of the school year is difficult for som children. The new situation may create appre hension and uneasiness. As parents, you may become aware of these developments at home. You should make an early contact with the teacher. Close cooperation between the parents and the teacher can be very helpful. Many times the teacher can correct the problem with a few friendly remarks and a little extra attention. If this is not successful, you might have to approach this situation in a more complete manner. Part of a child s education is learning to adjust to all kinds of events. He must learn how to make friends, work in a group and talk to new acquaintances. There are many youngsters who develop these skills quickly and easily. Those who don't know how to accomplish these things properly should be given advice and some definite instruction. Protect Child It is important lo protect a child with these problems from embarrassing situations. One reason for shyness or fear is a lack of self-confidence. The shy child is often terrified when pushed to perform in front of a group whether it be his class mates or relatives. He becomes uneasy, forgets his lines, and may even cry. This only serves to cause a greater loss of confidence. Work the opposite way. Start by building h i s confidence. Teach him the techniques for getting along with people. He should understand that other children don't like to be ignored. They like children who are re laxed and seem to enjoy them selves. Provide opportunities for the child to participate in activ ities with other children. These activities should be those in which the child has enthusiasm and interest. Explain how people compro mise. The answer to a disagree ment is not always yes or no. It often is a center road. As indi viduals learn to work out their differences they become closer mends, lhey are also more de sirable people. Teach the child methods for talking in front of a group. If he feels more confident, let him read his speech. He may event ually develop the confidence so that he will feel more relaxed, and willing to speak to a group. This is the type of problem which can only be solved slowly. It needs a great deal of under standing and patience. Pres sures will probably increase the problem. Self-confidence is a valuable asset. It means that an individual feels pretty good about himself. He feels that he has something to offer others. It is natural for an individual to have the greatest confidence in areas where he has the great est ability. Therefore, you should identify these areas and build upon them. As soon as other children begin lo respect the shy child he is on the way to correct ing his problem. Remember that individuals are quite differcnl. There is room in society for all types. There is no need for a basically shy child to become an agressive one. It is important that he re spect himself. Harvey Aluminum Tax Trial Delayed SALEM (UPI) - The tax dis pute trial between Harvey Alu minum Co. and the State Tax Commission has been indefi nitely postponed, Oregon Tax Court Judge Peter Gunnar an nounced Thursday. Both the company and tax commission requested the postponement. Harvey Aluminum had chal lenged about $12 million in as sessments levied against its fa cilities in Wasco countv. Judge Gunnar said counsel for both parties said conferences "have led to a basis for settle ment of all pending court litiga tion between the parties. The parties now are engaged in studying and negotiating the de tails of such settlement. "The Wasco county officials are being informed and are con sulting with the parties during these negotiations," Judge Gun nar said. ly tVtle'flTiirtT The look that's always right, the casual you can't do without it's the shirtwaist, of course!

Until Midntht summer to draft the full docu ment, and Cardinal Larraona says it is ready for the fathers to vote on as soon as they con vene. While its contents are still of ficially secret, it is known that the liturgical document retains Latin for the central portions of the mass the offeratory, con secration and communion but grants wide latitude to national episcopal conferences to author ize use of modern languages in other portions of the service, including the scripture lessons and many of the prayers and chants. There is no doubt that bishops will be quick to take advantage of this permission, and it is probably only a matter of months before American Catholics will be able to par ticipate, in English, in large portions of. their Sunday wor ship. More Power for Bishops Of less immediate popular in terest, but far greater potential significance is a proposal to de centralize the administration of the church by vesting more dis cretionary powers in local bish ops and national episcopal con ferences, such as the National Catholic Welfare Conference in the United States. Pope Paul has said that this is the most important proposal before the council, and has made plain his desire that his "fellow bishops" be accorded substantially greater authority and prestige. The result could be a sharp reduction in the vast powers exercised in the name of the pope by the eccle siastical bureaucrats of the Curia. Another major document like ly to receive early attention is schema No. 1, dealing with Di vine revelation. The original version of this document was drafted by the Curia's holy of fice, the "watchdog of ortho doxy," headed by the leader of the council's conservatives, Al fredo Cardinal Ottaviani. It stronRly reiterated the assertion which is anathema to Protes tantsthat oral tradition is on a par with scripture as a source j of Christian doctrine. It indirect- j ly but unmistakably condemned the biblical scholarship move ment which has burgeoned in the Catholic church in recent years, and which has done more than any other one thing to bring Catholics and Protestants into a fruitful doctrinal dialogue. New Document The council fathers rejected this document last fall by a vote of nearly two to one, and Pope John appointed a special com mission to draft a new more ac ceptable document. Augustin Cardinal Bea, S. J., head of the secretariat for Christian unity and a noted Catholic Bible scholar, is co-chairman with Progressive influence on the Cardinal Ottaviani of the new committee work done during the commission. What the special council recess is evident in the commission will bring forth is ; fact that one of the 17 schemata deals exclusively with "the lay still secret, but it seems cer tain that it will be far more biblical in emphasis than the original. apostolate" that is, the rights and duties of laity In the over all mission of the church.
