WALZER I PI Financial Editor NEW YORK, IITI'-This na tion has built up (he worlds greatest manufacturing economy with credit ranging to the "dollar down dollar when they catch you" iinancing. Instalment credit that is. Also, we are past masters on all kinds of credit government as well as private. This credit stuff could well he our secret weapon in beating the Soviet at a trade war now gain ing scope throughout the world. S. J. Rundt, a consultant on in ternational business, not long ago said that in other words to the National Association of Credit Men. "One of the great weapons of trade is credit," he said, "and credit competition is where we could easily lick anybody. "We are accustomed to check and administer credit, terms and collections, as no other country in the world. "Moreover, the Communists op erate as stale bureaucracies and have no private credit adminis tration of the sort which has he Eugene Plans Roundup Fete EUGENE (Special) A purse of $0,000 and a special all-around cowboy award of $500 will bring many of the country's tup rodeo cowboys to Eugene August 1-3 for the four performances of the Em erald Empire Roundup. The $500 prize is new this year, and offered by the Oregon Golden Triangle Association to the top cowboy competing in roundups in Klamath Falls, Eugene and I'nne ville.

KNOW-HOW "Not only is our financial pow er, on all levels throughout our land to the Potomac, and from the smaller banks in our thous ands of towns to the skyscraper financial institutions in our big cities, far greater than that of even the combined Moscow-Pei ping nioc, we also have more know-how than the Reds in what to do with commercial credit." Of course, he couldn't expect U.S. companies to give dirt cheap long term credit since business is in business to make a profit. He would have the government take a hand and go along with private enterprise to help finance foreign trade on easy credit. He would center the operations in the Department of Commerce. In the war against Communism in world trade, Rundt would merge the efforts of business and government. "To achieve the sorely needed close coordination," he said, "it would above all become necessary that all the many government agencies in the foreign economic field establish a common infor mation and co-alignment center. BASIC WEAPON "Once a measure of cnordina lion has been achieved, let the representatives of industry, com merce, financo and government come up with a detailed plan to give Business, to give the field divisions, full use of a basic weapon, namely commercial cred it, so that we will not sit on the battle field with only heavy artil lery, but also have on hand an instrument that can he carried bv the infantryman without whom, I venture to guess, no war will be fought, not even in a nuclear age.

McCANM UPI Foreign News Analyst Premier Charles de Gaulle has completed the draft of a new con stitution under which he plans to revolutionize France s governmen tal system. The constitution is to be submit ted to the people in a national referendum on Sept. 28 or Oct. 5. Political experts predict it will be approved by a comfortable ma jority and possibly by a landslide If so, France will get. on a per manent basis, an "authoritarian" government like that which De Gaulle is administering under his temporary powers. Ihere are indications De Gaulle may dissolve the present Parlia mcnt before it can start its next scheduled session on Oct. 7. If he does, he will call for an immediate election so there will be a new Parliament as well as new constitution. So far. only the Communists have announced last-ditch opposi tion to De Gaulle's proposed new deal. The Communists are lhe strnns- est political party in France, with HM seals in the 5-member Na tional Assembly, the controlling iiouse oi i-arnament. Communist Leader Maurice Thorez has ordered his party winters 10 organize opposition uirougnoui ine country. The Socialist Parly, which ranks second lo the Communists with 101 seals in the assembly, is somewhat lukewarm on the con stitution issue, though it is repre sented in De Gaulle's cabinet. But Ihere is no sign it will come out in tirm opposition. Under De Gaulle's constitution the powers of the president would he increased at the expense of the National Assembly. Instead of being largely a fig urehead as at present, tlie presi dent would get stronc executive powers like those exercised by the presiacni ot ine United Stales. The president would get the power to dissolve the National As sembly and call for a new elec tion. He would appoint a premier by his own authority, instead of merely proposing him to Parlin. ment for approval as at present. In times of national emergency, lhe president would be able to di rect the government. The cabinet would still ho r.. sponsible to Parliament. But the powers of Parliament lo over throw a premier would be sharply constitution is approved, De Gaulle may resign as premier and assume the presidency. This appears to be increasingly likely because of the approval De Gaulle's policies have won since he took office June 2 after a 13 year succession of cabinet over throws. De Gaulle wants to solve the Al gerian problem, strengthen the country's finances and increase its prestige as a world power. He could best deal with Algeria and finance if he kept the leader ship himself. As for prestige, De Gaulle al ready has made a pretty good start toward giving France a stronger international standing. He is having a full sav in Allied discussions on a possible sum- mn conierence with Kussia in. stead of permitting France to be overshadowed by the United States and Great Britain. And he is being listened to by the Amer ican ana British governments. TOUGH NUT TO CRACK FORT SMITH, Ark. (UPI) Squirrels are usually crazy about nuts hut Mr. and Mrs. E. L.

"We were brought here to teach Frenchmen the oil business but no one listens to us," is a stand ard complaint of American oil men here. All complain of a bitter anti- American feeling throughout this oil site where 3.000 men work in the middle of the Sahara to real ize France's dream of becoming an oil nation. "They act as if we were here to take over their oil," said a tool pusher from Los Angeles who asked that his name not be used. "All I can say is they can have it. The way they run things here, there won't be anything left here in a year but sand and abandoned derricks." Many Americans working here believe that the potentialities of the Hassi Messaoud field have been exaggerated for political pur poses. But derrick supervisor Paul R. Downs, of Bakersfield, Calif., says "It's an oil field that can produce." There is a lot of bitterness to ward the U. S. oilmen among young French engineers and tech nicians, many of whom fear that their lack of experience is too ob vious alongside veterans from Texas and California. "They (Americans) act as if they were supermen." complained one Frenchman. "They can't be lieve anybody can do anything better than they." "The French are jealous of our skill and our experience," said an American technician. "After all, we've been in the oil business for 100 years and they only five. And they refuse to understand this." In the camp's air-conditioned dining room the French eat in one group, the Americans in another and a group of Moslems by them selves in the corner. "They refuse to learn French and insist on speaking English to us," complained a Frenchman. "After all, this is a French ter ritory." "You can't do anything about all this," observed Billy McBride of Fort Worth, Tex. "They're just anti-American." m 4" Rubber Ring Sewer Pipe 45' J Par Ft.
