KENNEDY'S OLIVE BRANCH TO BUSINESS
The Democratic administration of President Kennedy is now
cooperating with and trusting the U. S. businessman to a degree
unprecedented in modern times and this goes not only for the
previous Democratic administrations of our era but for the Re
publican administration of President Eisenhower as well.
, This may seem a shocking claim in view of the news last week
that a federal grand jury has reopened a broad probe into steel
pricing practices. .Coming on the heels of a round of selective steel
price increases, this has been widely interpreted as another attack
on the industry. But the fact is that the grand jury has been col
lecting information on steel pricing policies for more than a year
and a half, it finally felt it had enough data to proceed with its in
vestigation and the timing is strictly a coincidence. The fact is
that probes of this sort are a continuing thing and there is nothing
unusual about them.
The fact is that the White House did not order a stepping up
of this inquiry. The fact is that Kennedy was really rocked by the
response to his crackdown on steel in the spring of 1962, wants no
part of a repetition.
Still because of the new inquiry and the memory of the brawls
early in his administration, the "anti-business" label again is
being pinned on Kennedy. It is not warranted. Rather, Kennedy
has been extending an olive branch to industry and here's proof
across-the-board.
On Prices and Profits: All Kennedy is saying about the recent
6teel price hikes is that he is "concerned" that they "may stim
ulate other price increases which will affect adversely our com
petitive position abroad. . . ." As President, he couldn't say less.
Any new price upsurge would spur a new wage spiral, revive the
evil of inflation. It also would add to the government's buying
costs, thus swell the budget deficit.
As for profits, Kennedy has been repeatedly praising their role
as crucial to the U. S. economy s growth and the administration
has taken major steps to bolster profits of U. S. businessmen.
On Taxes: In 1962 Kenendy offered individuals zero in tax cuts
but he fought for and won tax concessions for businessmen run
ning to over $2.5 billion a year. In the late 1950s, Eisenhower
wanted to give businessmen similar tax relief but he retreated
simultaneously. In short, Democratic Kennedy accomplished for
business what GOP Eisenhower couldn t.
Now the White House is pushing a tax bill that would give in
dividuals big breaks and businessmen plenty more too. The top
corporation rate would be cut from 52 to 48 per cent, the top in
dividual rate would be slashed from 91 to 70 per cent, small
corporations would get the juiciest tax cuts of all.
On Expense Accounts: The first proposals for expense account
curbs were rough but the White House backed down fast when it
heard the howls. As finally passed, the curbs were greatly modi
fied and Internal Revenue Commissioner Capun has ordered the
IRS agents to go after only "abuses ... the fellow who is really
on a frolic. ... We don't want to be in a position of trying to
interfere with legitimate business activity."
: On The Budget: The spending lid is on. No new programs will
be in the next budget, increases will be due primarily to expenses
built into programs already voted by Congress. The spending
curbs may not satisfy businessmen but Kennedy is certainly
listening to their demands.
On Interest Rates: The administration actually has been
ahead of the Federal Reserve System on moves to boost interest
rates in order to protect the dollar. If a GOP administration
dared say what this Democratic administration has been saying
about interest rate levels, the cries of outrage would be deafening.
Of course, there's opposition by businessmen to government
and by government to business and properly so. If this ever dis
appears, our private enterprise system will have disappeared and
we will be in the dreaded "corporate state." But to accuse Ken
nedy of being anti-business today is almost akin to accusing Sen
ator Goldwater of being pro-Communist.

Handouts for Holdups
Come Hallowe'en
Wee ghosts and ghostesses
(and some not so wee) will soon
be on the prowl. Loot bags con
tinue to be the big idea now-
days. Time was when the treat
was eaten on the premises, but
today the loot-bag trend contin
ues and the youngsters tote the
loot home while munching sun
dry goodies along the way.
Supermarkets carry a wide
variety of already packaged Hal
loween treats ready for quick
distribution. Many enterprising
young mothers will make and
decorate large cookies for
wrapping in transparent wrap
and handing out. Apples, jelly
beans, colored marshmallows,
chocolate and orange donuts or
other items youngsters go for
really should be wrapped indi
vidually to protect late - comers
in case a few of the early
comers hands have become a
little grubby en route.
Once wrapped, pile the sundry
items high on a tray on porch
(with a guard) or on a hallway
table. Let the little monsters
(actually charming children)
take their pick.
Apple cider, chilled and ser
ved in small paper cups (have
a waste basket hand), is es
pecially nice for washing down
the goodies our costumed
friends have been gourmandiz
ing on as they travelled along.
Olive Stufred Celery
Gvie a bit of crunchiness to
party bits or lunchbox menu by
stuffing celery like this: Cut one
half cup pitted ripe olives into
small pieces. Blend one-third-ounce
package cream cheese
with two tablespoons mayon
naise. Add olives, one table
spoon finely chopped green on
ion or chives; salt to taste and
add just a dash of tabasco sauce.
Mix well. Stuff celery stalks and
chill until ready to serve. Cut
into two - inch lengths or
into bite-size crescents by slic
ing celery slices slant-wise.
Delightful Orange Drink
Pour one-half cup fresh or re
constituted frozen orange juice
over one scoop favorite fruit
sherbert. Fill glass to top with
soda for a refreshing drink.
Freezing Tips for
Lunch Packers
Whether you are the lunch
packer who prepares the lunch
or the lunch packer who totes
it to school or work, here are
three handy sandwich freezing
tips to keep in mind:
Freezer "hardies" that will
maintain their flavor and tex
ture include sliced or ground
meats, fish, chicken, peanut
butter and cheese. Sliced or
chopped olives, dill or sweet
pickles may be added to any of
these.

enjoy the warmth and beauty of
genuine Forrest wood block floors
Thanks to recent triumphs at Forrest Industries in wood
technology, genuine wood block flooring is now available at prices
everyone can afford. Guaranteed for 15 years!
Forrest wood block flooring costs about half as much as other wood block floor
ing It is easier, less costly to maintain Anyone can apply. No prior experience
needed Forrest flooring is tongue and groove, makes one continuous floor.
So, there is no chance of mastic oozing through It is harder than oak. Won't
dent, split, splinter, crack or delaminate. Women's spike heels can't damage it,
Forrest wood block flooring is treated at the factory with two coats of fortified vinyl.
No sanding orvarnishing required. Each block is 9" x 9" square by 14" or 3s" thick.
Laid in a heavy mastic, it forms a solid, uniform surface.
To prevent filling from soak
ing bread, spread all bread
slices generously with butter or
margarine.
Do not freeze mayonnaise,
salad dressing or crisp vege
tables. The mayonnaise and
dressing will separate and the
vegetables lose crispness and
change flavor. Add vegetables
to thawed sandwiches just be
fore serving.
Fillets of Sole Get
Anchovy Sauce Topping
There is an abundance of
sweet - tasting fillets of sole in
our markets. Pan-fry or broil
them quickly, handling as little
as possible. Top with this savory
Anchovy Sauce:
Cream one-fourth cup (one
half stick) butter until soft; add
two teaspoons minced parsley,
one-half teaspoon salt, dash of
pepper, one teaspoon anchovy
paste, one teaspoon prepared
mustard and one and one-half
tablespoons lemon juice. Beat
until fluffy. Spread on hot fish
fillets or steaks just before serv
ing. Hamburger Care
Ground beef is more perish
able than most meats; should
be used within two days. Store
ground beef loosely covered in
coldest part of refrigerator as
soon as you get it home from
the store. Loosening wrapper
lets the cold air in and the meat
doesn't get that stale odor and
taste.
Pork, Shrimp, Poultry
Headline List of Plentiful!
Pork supplies are increasing
ngnt along joining the good
values in beef and lamb. It must
be remembered that pork has
a comparatively short storage
life and that means a very few
days in the refrigerator and
only three to six months in the
freezer. A good marketing tip
is to include pork sausage links
or patties regularly on your
shopping list. An excellent
breakfast meat, sausage goes
into gravies, casseroles, and
vegetable dishes to give them
added flavor distinction.
Shrimp Fiesta time is now.
This colorful, delicate princess
of the seafood family can be
used so many ways ... in cock
tails, with dips and dunks, in
main dishes, soups, salads, sea
food chowders. Such thinking
reminds us ot otner wel -Dr ced
bounty from our coastal waters
including halibut, fillet of sole,
swordfish, sea bass, salmon,
cod fillets, scallops, ovsters and
crabs. Fish sticks are a year
rouna gooa tuy as is canned
tuna.
Thrifty Poultry Buys. Choose
chicken or turkey for a low-cost
symbol of opulence. More eco
nomical than many meats, it
provides generous quantities of
protein. Stew it, roast it, broil
it or whatever and when well
seasoned and nicely served it
will grace any table in high
style.
Cheddar cheese, c 0 1 1 a 8 e
cheese and all dairy products
are abundant; inviting their use
in menus daily. Cheese Festival
Month continues, so look -for
specials.
Apples Delight. Jonathans, the
brilliant red apples with patches
of straw color and the popular
Red Delicious are increasingly
in supply. They're a big Hal
lowe'en specialty. Keep eating
apples chilled, ready for apple
snatchers of all ages.
Other seasonal fruits include
cranberries, enough of which
are bogged down to make this
the third largest crop on record.
Grape varieties, pears, bana
nas, lemons, oranges and grape
fruit continue about the same
. . . as do pineapples, papayas
and avocados. Pomegranates
and quince are interesting

Vegetable bins offer new sea

from being of one mind on how
to deal with it.

Although there is no statist!

ties believe there has been a
great upsurge of ornery bursas
in the last few years.
They can't really explain it
WASHINGTON (UPI) - One
of the comic strips I read has
dog named Snoopy who
spends his time watching leaves
fall from trees. I should never
read comic strips.
Their power of suggestion is
so strong that now Snoopy's
got me doing it. In fact, over
doing it. The plain truth is that
I have become addicted to leaf
watching.
Once a person gets hooked on
something like this, it is almost
impossible to kick the habit.
Moreover, he must try to con
quer it alone, there being no
organization, such as falling
leaf watchers anonymous, that
he can turn to.
And no matter how hard he
might try to hide his weakness.
little tell-tale signs will give
mm away.
Sure Sign
If you have a friend or rela
tive who stands out in the yard
at night with a flashlight hop
ing to see one last leaf fall be
fore bedtime, you can be cer
tain that he's a goner.
The terrible thing about a
falling leaf fixation is that the
leaf falling season is so short.
Soon they will all be gone, leav
ing lng, bleak months of noth
ingness ahead.
It is possible, or course,
to hire someone to climb a tree
and toss down some confetti,
but it wouldn't be the same.
While waiting for the next
leaf to fall, leaf watchers occu-
by the time with musing and
meditation. I normally mediate
upon what a shame it is for all
of those leaves to go to waste.
Over the years there has
been a lot of talk about using
ine great tides ot Passamo
quoddy Bay as a source of use
ful energy. Well, it occurred to
me that there might also be a
way to harness the energy pro
duced Dy tailing leaves.
Has Possibilities
It is true that a single leaf
doesn't produce much energy,
but when you consider the mil
lions of leaves that fall each
autumn you can see the possibilities.
I also meditate on ways to
make use of leaves after
they have fallen. Leaves burn
well, so why couldn't they be
compressed into brickettes and
put on the cookout market in
competition with charcoal?
If someone wants to try that,
I know where they can pick up
a lot of leaves cheap.
Another bright potential is
the use of leaves as a breakfast
cereal. Crumpled up in a bowl
with a little cream and sugar,
they would make a mighty ap
petizing looking dish.
Leaves might not be nutriti
ous or flavorful, but that is no
drawback. Almost every cereal
you buy nowadays has nu
trition and flavor added.
Finally, labor unions per
haps could use leaves as a
substitute for featherbedding.

me one oes way, on me oasis ; but o( vietims

For those who are unsure, a
bursa is a sac in bony prom
inences over which muscles and
tendons move. It contains a
fluid which looks like the white
of an egg and when a bursa
gets inflamed, oh brother!
There's no pain quite as per
sistent and as ..icruciating.
In the current rash of bursitis
victims, the bursa usually af
flicted is the one where an up
per arm merges with the shoul
der. There is no comfort for
them whether standing, sitting

or lying down and even the
slightest arm movement be
comes an ordeal.
Dr. Lowell was asked by the
New England Journal of Medi
cine to instruct its readers on
the best way to cope with it
and make it go away as quick
ly as possible.
He puts the tender arms into
slings and their owners into
beds, in a sitting or a semi
sitting position. He gives them
a pain-lessening drug and an
anti-inflammatory drug (phenyl
butazone) four times a day and
otherwise doesn t touch them.
"The response in most cases
is dramatic and occurs within
48 to 72 hours," he said.
thority will get to work on this
right away. Autumn leaves can
save the world!
During this period the arm
is taken out of the sling for in
creasing periods and gentle ex
ercises are started, first, swing
ing the arm as a pendulum,
later, using the opposite arm to
assist in bringing the affected
one overhead or behind the
back."
Almost never is it necessary
to "manipulate" the arm, with
consequent torment to its own
er, in order to help the in
flamed bursa, he said, and only
rarely is it necessary to get to
the bursa surgically to remove
a calcium deposit.
He also rejected treatments
with vitamin A, penicillin, trac
tion, diathermy and ultrasound.
