Answer Not Apparent Yet By SAM DAWSON NEW YORK. Dec. ( (Pv Business is In the middle again. Businessmen all over the country feel the pull of both inflation and deflation. forces that appear to most observ ers to be closely matched Just now. Winter resort owners in Tucson. Arizona, arc asking if inflation is in the cards meaning easy and plentiful money back East, and more customers for winter resorts. A secretary in San Francisco asks if inflation Is on the way back meaning rising prices for the things she buvs. while her own pay rises much more slowly, if at all. Spring Scene It may be spring before we know: whether we're headed for another boom: whether we're In for a sharp er bust than last spring; or whether we somehow or other hsve achieved the unexpected an almost painless retreat from postwar inflation to a lower but still prosperous plateau of business activity. Perhaps more persons think that Inflation Is the stronger force Just now. They cite the pickup In orders dustries ss paperboard. shoes andind henc betwr " . ariiauon may iuu nin quite a w j to to vet. and that recent unturn in business may be temporary. Businessmen themselves have slowed down their own spending for new plant and equipment. The building boom reflects largely gov ernmental and Institutional con struction, and the revived boom in home building, spurred by the high marriage rate. But the expansion of production facilities is slowing down. Also, farm Income Is falling and the government predicts It will fall further. Food prices are weakened, at the farm level at least, by sur pluses. Some even question the abil ity a." the government to support prices If another bumper crop next year piles up additional surpluses in government bins. Exports Exports of our goods also may continue to slide. In spite of the helping hand of the Marshall Plan dollar, devaluation of foreign cur rencies, and the talk about point frur encouragement of prospective markets abroad all supposed to make foreigners more prosperous Looking for something? Read the Want Ads you may find it there! STETSON HATS- textilea. They list the rise In prices. here and there such as, tires up seven per cent In a month. Du Pont's four per cent hike in rayon viscose yarn over the week-end, and coffee prices bumping the sky. Support Supporting the view that Inflation is coming Is the quick rebound of steel production after the strike, and the word today that Jones fc Laughlin. the nation's fourth largest steel producer, expects a hike In price on this basic product. Other items are the easing of the threat of a coal shortage and the pros pects of labor peace: the building boom: the slowly mounting cost of production in many industries; and the steady climb of Installment buy ing to record highs. Chief argument that Inflation Is on the way lies in the swelling tide of government spending, the treasury's deficit financing, and in sistence on low Interest rates. These offer the essence of Inflation which I Is thj Increasing of the supply of money and the cheapening of its buying value. On the other hand, many observ- cite tneir own list to snow that I However, many Industries find It Increasingly hard to maintain their profitable markets abroad. Either there are no dollars oversea to buy American goods, or the foreign government wont let American goods in. Hollywood was among the first to find Its once golden outlet cut off. and the oil Industry Is wor ried now. Close Balance The balance between Inflation and deflation Is too close Just now for most cautious observers to hazard a guess as to which way It will tin. OTI Students Seek Refund Of Pay Cuts OTI A "Christmas present" handrd Oregon Tech students by the veterans administration In the form of reduced OI checks Is not being received with any great amount of appreciation by Tech stu dents. Over 500 of them receive OI bill of rights money while attending school, and noted In their Novem ber checks received last week de ductions of from 138 to (33. Reason The deductions, VA explained. were made because no classes were held at OTI for a week between semesters. Students were automati cally cut off the subsistence roll when the next semester started. The only way around being cut off, VA raid, was for the students to have put in requests for "leave." meaning for their pay to continue during their vacation time. Days for which lea a pay was received would be subtracted from the stu dent's days of eligibility under the OI bill. Request for the leave should have been made on a special VA form In advance of the holidays. Many Tech students who recelvrd short checks hsve now filled out the leave request forms but doubt they will 'be able to recover the money already deducted. Recovery Action Charles J. Boleyn Sr. president f of the campus Service club, said a permanent committee was being or ganized to go into the "lost week" 'Pelican Express' Driver Gets Honor By BILL JENKINS THE age of miracles hasn't passed. Some kind soul picked up those keys I lost the other day and turn lied Uirm In at the city police sta tion. The police took the trouble, foi which I thank them very much, to call me at my home and tell me they had some keys, the only ones turned In Sunday, and could they be miner They were. So now I don't have to worry until the next time. And while were on that subject, the police tell me Ihst they have a lot of keya down there that have bren turned In and for which no one haa called.

They tU me Bill Is so good now that he can tell you at what time hell be In any certain spot along the road on his regular run.
