GREEN WASHINGTON ( The consum er is the man who, sooner or later, will break up this recession. But right now he is buying with cau tion, saving more, trying to get old bills paid before he takes on new debt. That's the story told in city after city to Associated Press reporters conducting this Mow s Busi ness? survey across the country Out in Reno, Nov., where gambling is flourishing and busi ness is ahead ot a year ago, LEWIS AND CLARK A CAPPELLA CHOIR High School Play Selected GILCHRIST The cast for the play, "All in the Family," has been selected at Gilchrist High School.

Stanley Glarum, member of the music faculty of Lewis and Clark, whose compositions and arrange ments are played and sung in many churches of the United States. His ability to weld 60 mixed voices into a homogenous group is revealed in the appraisal' of critics who are pleased by the tonal quality of the organization. With "Music in the Finest Chor al Tradition" as its motto, the choir interprets the music of out standing composers of choral works wjth fine shadings of balanced tone and rhythm.

Meetings Set By Foresters LAKEVIEW-Permittees of the Fremont National Forest and oth cr stockmen in the county are invited to attend a series of meet ings scheduled in Lake County dur ing March for a discussion and un derstanding of common problems with the Fremont staff. The first meeting scheduled that of the Southern Fremont Cat tle and Horsemen's Association in the office of Supervisor Clayton Weaver in the post office build ing, Lakeview, on March 10, 2 p.m. This group is confined to permittees in the Warner, Drews Valley and Thomas Creek ranger districts. On March 12, at the Silver Lake ranger station, the afternoon meet ing will be for all stockmen in the Silver Lake and adjacent area. At 2 o'clock the afternoon of March 14 the advisory board mem bers of the Fremont Sheepmen's Association will meet in the super visor's office in Lakeview. men found, it was factory workers who were bearing the brunt of the recession. Major credit organizations re port that defaults and reposses sions are' up a trifle but the losses still are low certainly not alarm mg, nothing to suggest that the consumer is overloaded with debt. This is a sampling of the reports given AP interviewers: From North Carolina, furni ture man "I haven't sold a piece of furniture in a week, but my trucks are all busv ffnintf out to puzzled banker said: "People are .haul in stuff people aren't keep- nervous Without knowing What ine im navmpnts on" they're nervous about." a Montana banker "Reposses- Retailers reported buyers are (Si0ns are uo 40 Der cent over last well heeled but bargain conscious, vear. On tho other hand there has They seem less willing to pledge been an increase in the number of a piece of future income lor a savings accounts." new car or refrigerator, either be cause they're less sure the income will hold up or because they think prices may drop a bit if they wait -a vain hope, so far. The average consumer is drink ing a bit less liquor, buying more hamburger and less steak, giving smaller tips. Except in the harder-hit areas. he has been making his regular church contributions and planning his summer vacation at the same resort. In more rarefied income brackets, he is keeping up his country club membership. A Nashville furrier reported: "My most popular mink lines this year are in the $750 range. Last year the most popular sellers were around $1,000." But he can still sell mink coats. The survey suggested that the salaried, white collar employe hasn't felt much pinch. Even so, more wives are looking for part time jobs, all across the country. And more people are letting their part-time maids go. More children are carrying lunches, instead of buying hot lunches at the school cafeteria. Across the country, AP news- FAITHFUL MEMBER KITCHENER, Ont. W-W. H. E. Schmalz was honored by the Kitch ener-Waterloo Kiwams Club on completion of 30 years' member ship without missing a single week ly meeting. His wife was prejent ed with a silver platter at the same lime. A big San Francisco department store "Collections are good. It could be that people want to put their houses in order and get rid of debt before they feel any real recession effects. A United Auto Workers' official, Local 887, Los Angeles "I tell our laid-off aircraft people: Con serve your money and don't get into debt until the-job situation improves." A welfare official in the South "It seems to me the average out-of-work fellow is better off now than he was in 1954. Then, so many owed payments, and they were terrified they'd lose every thing in the house. More seems to be paid for now." The survey indicated that in spite of Washington's well-publi cized swing to easier money, cred it is tighter for millions of lower income consumers. But the high-quality borrower or installment buyer is being wooed by stores and banks as he has not been since the credit binge ol 1955. , A Charlotte, N.C., con tractor remarked: "Last year you couldn t get a loan unless you were a prime customer. Now they're out asking you wouldn't you like some money." In almost every city, depart ment stores have begun wooing new credit customers with "re volving" charge accounts, which permit a customer to pay, say, $50 a : month on his account but keep adding to it. Interest is charged on the unpaid balance, In only one city did the AP re porters find a businessman who thought tins was being overdone. A Huntington, W.Va., banker was "appalled" by the increase. He said: "Instead of cutting down they're going deeper into debt.": A curious by-product of reces sion is an upturn, in some areas. In the luxury trade. Macy's vast department store in New York City reported it is selling more jewels, furs, and perfumes, and costlier ones.. A spokesman for the National Dress Manufacturers Assn. of fered a possible explanation for the same trend in women's wear! "It appears that with the falling off of family spending for durable goods such as autos, they have more to spend on embellish ments." Men's clothing sales have lagged this winter while women's apparel flourished. "When the family starts curtailing the cloth ing budget, men are the first to go," explained Milton Fried, re search director of the Amalga mated Clothing Workers Union. "People are eating bigger lunches and cutting down on din ner," said an official of the New York State Restaurant Assn. Do-it-yourself haircuts are com ing back in Minneapolis. Movie attendance is so-so. A Virginia report says, "Movies are holding the level of last year, which was bad."
