That if your husband confesses
he's a rapid xhabdophilist, don't

Confident Hulls
By SAM DAWSON
AP Business News Analyst
NEW YORK (AP) - The bulls
are sniffing inflation ahead and
are confident that the turn in bust
ness Is here. That is why last
week they bid up stock prices al
most to the record high of a year
ate.
In doing this they are putting
their own interpretation on the
Middle East crisis and on the ef
fects of a possible visit of Khrush
chev to these shores.
Corporate earnings statements
for the first half nf the year also
look different to the bulls than to
the bears. In fact the bulls are
ignoring the numerous bears,
whose betting on a further shake
out in the market Is shown by a
record volume of short selling
'making a sales contract now in
belief the stock can be bought
later at a lower price to fulfill
the contract at a profit).
The bulls also think the inven
lory trend is turning from dras
tic paring of stocks to inquiries
and actual orders that herald a
rebuilding of stocks in the near
future with the Middle East play-
in; a large role.
The bulls hold that the Middle
East crisis Is to he a war of
nerves instead of bullets. This
would support many of the forces

Inflation has another built in

prospects of pay hikes in other In

Personal spending has reversed

That the county is heading out

reasonably clear. There is no way
of telling how long the upturn will
continue or whether it will get
back to the previous peak. Nor
mally, it does.
Optimistic
By WILLIAM FERRIS
AP Business News Writer
NEW YORK (AP)-An air of
optimism is sweeping over the
business scene. It has firm sta
tistical backing. Business is im
proving, and is doing so at a
time of year when It ordinarily
does not.
Changes in economic conditions
are not difficult to recognize, but
often, they are difficult to accept.
This certainly was true last sum
mer. The obviously deepening eco
nomic deterioration at that time
was rejected by people condi
tioned to uninterrupted expan
sion.
A similar situation, but in re
verse, undoubtedly exists to some
extent now. The tendency of many
will be to reject this week's com
ments of Dr. Gabriel Hauge, eco
nomic adviser to President Eisen
hower. Dr. Hauge said:
"In my opinion the recession Is
ended. I think we're on our way
to a good period of rising activ
ity."
Additional statistical Informa
tion arose this week to support
Dr. Hauge's position. Moreover,
government action indicated an
acceleration of the upward trend
regardless of the outcome of the
United Nations summit confer
ence on the Middle East.
Various government agencies
are pouring out money at a rate
to give a banker apoplexy. Defense
contracts mount each week and
the Senate Appropriations Com
mittee this week increased the
amount President Eisenhower has
requested for defense in the next
12 months.
Farmers will get nearly Hi bil
lion dollars from the government
this year, the largest sum on rec
ord, partly for retiring crop land.
In June the Bureau of Public
Roads' contract awards (or the
big national highway program
doubled the awards of May.
The federal deficit in the fiscal
year just ended was larger than
expected while the outlook for the
current fiscal year, Just started, is
such that Treasury Secretary An
derson will ask Congress next
week to increase the national
debt. Deficits are Inflationary.
The council of economic advis
ers this week announced the gross
national product advanced during
army adjacent to the Turkish
frontier and started alleging that
Turkey intended to attack Iraq.
No specific plans have been dis
closed for offsetting Iraq's loss to
the pact. It seems possible Dulles
may make some dramatic propos
al. In any event, Allied METO
policy must be radically altered.
Foreign IVews
By CHARLES M. McCANN
UPI Foreign News Analyst
The future of the Middle East
ern Treaty Organization is likely
to he decided in London this week.
Secretary of State John Foster
Dulles is in London to confer with
the four active members of the
alliance Turkey, Iran, Pakistan
and Great Britain.
Iraq, the fifth member, is not
expected to attend. The revolution
in that country, the only Arab
member, apparently makes it cer
tain that it will withdraw from
the pact.
The loss of Iraq is a severe
blow to the members of the al
liance, and to the United States
which sponsored it
But Turkey, Iran and Pakistan
have announced they intend not
only to maintain the alliance but
to strengthen it.
To his end, Turkey and Paki
stan urgently want the United
States to become a full member.
This, dispatches from Washing-
Ion say, the United States will
not do.
The United States has joined the
military, anti-subversion and eco
nomic committees of the pact. It
has refused to take full member
ship largely because President
Gamal Abdel Nasser of the United
Arab Republic detests it. Nasser
takes the stand that the alliance
weakened Arab unity, because
Iraq joined it. Actually, what he
meant by unity was that it im
peded his own ambition to seize
the mastery of the Arab world.
Dulles sponsored the alliance.
He did so to complete a chain of
alliances against Soviet aggression
which extends from Arctic Nor
way through Western Europe and
Western Asia to the Far East
The METO alliance was signed
in Baghdad, Iraq, in 1955. It pro
vides not only for military coop
eration but for cooperation in
fighting Communist subversion
and In economic affairs.
Iraq joined the alliance despite
Nasser's bitter protests. Though
he failed to keep Iraq out, he did
succeed In keeping Jordan from
joining it.
The METO alliance has been
known as the Baghdad Pact be
cause it was signed there, and its
headquarters have been main
tained in that capital
Multiple llirtli
By EDWIN P. JORDAN, M.D.
The subject of multiple human
births is always fascinating, and
when five children are born at
one time it becomes international
news.
Statistics show the greatest fre
quency of multiple births is among
Negroes and the lowest among
Mongols.
In the United Stales the inci
dence nf quadruplets is once in
about 570,000 among whites, and
once in some 237,000 among col
ored. Triplets in whites occur
once in 9.828 births and in colored
once in 5.631. A similar situation
exists for twins, which appear
once in 73.8 colored births and
once in 92.4 white births.
It appears that age also enters
into the picture. It is curious that
women under 20 have twins only
six times in 1,000, while women 35
to 39 have 17 sets of twins for
every 1,000 births.
One can gather from these fig
ures that the chances of giving
birth to three or more children
at the same time are rather re
mote, but that twinning is rela
tively common.
There are tvo kinds of twins.
Fraternal twins are the result of
fertilization of two eggs.
Such twins may be of the same
or of opposite sex. Except for
having identical birthdays, they
may be as different from each
other as any other brothers or
sisters, both physically and men
tally. Identical twins are the result
of the fertilization of a single egg
which later divides.
Identical twins are always of the
same sex and are much alike in
both physical and mental charac
teristics. One twin is really the
mirror image of the other. There
are apparently about one-fourth as
many identical twins as there are
fraternal twins.
Twins are neither superior nor
inferior to other people. It is not
true that twins are less fertile
than persons born singly. The
mental and physical development
of identical twins is, however,
much alike.
There is a tendency for twins and
other multiple children to be born
prematurely. This means that they
are comparatively poorly devel
oped at the time of birth and
therefore have a decreased chance
of living past infancy. This is
true also for other multiple births.
births.
Many fraternal and identical
It can hardly be called the
Baghdad Pact any longer, how-! twins grow up. Indeed, there are
ever, and its headquarters most
probably will be shifted to Anka
ra, Turkey.
But the secret documents of the
pact on military strategy and
tactics and on Communist subver
sion will not "be shifted. The
Iraqi rebels seized them. The best
that can he hoped is that they
will not go eventually to Russia.
The Iraqi revolt was a great
victory not only for Nasser but for
Russia.
The revolt itself effectively re
moved one member from the
pact.
The Soviet government at once
started to work on weakening it
further. Shah Mohammed Reza
Pahlevi of Iran was invited to vis
it Russia, in obvious hope that
Iran's part in the alliance might
be weakened.
The Kremlin knew It could not
seduce Turkey. So it put a big
a considerable number of triplets
and some quadruplets who have
reached full maturity. Doubtless
more and more will do so now
that so much has been learned
about infant and child care and
the hazards of infectious disease
during childhood have been so
greatly reduced.
The higher death rate at or soon
after birth, however, explains why
one sees fewer twins, triplets or
quadruplets than the birth statis
tics would lead one to expect.
