Dean Ann Landers: My wife is 5S years old and she's a fine- looking woman. We have two married daughters. The problem I am writing about is that my wife tries to pattern her appear ance after the girls. I think a woman should keep herself up but I don't like to see her gussied up like a spring chicken. The other day she had her hair fixed with spit curls on the side like Theda Bara. She also, shortened her dresses, because "it's the style." I think she's carrying things too far. She claims I'm a hick. Am H-ALSO 55 Dear Also: Your wife sounds like a hick not you. A woman, 55, can look chic without trying to turn back the clock a whole generation.

Studio streets are, busy. Sales executives are getting chipper again. But the indications of prosper! ty are not merely in these intan gible signs. You can also see it in the hard facts as reported in the trade press: MGM stepping up production to a 13-year high, earnings highest in 12 years. . . . 20th-Fox ahead of 1960 in top grossers . . . Para mount Invests $21.4 million In nine pictures now shooting, $30 million in films in preparation, Hollywood payrolls up from $140 to $153 average over previous year. . . . Universal-International takes biggest stock jump in 1960. Hollywood studio shortage looms. Producer chief Eric Johnston has cited a "pervasive optimism" In the film business. He predict ed 170 films to be made here in 1961 vs. 120 In strike-torn I960. Perhaps the most authoritative sign comes from the U.S. Depart ment of Commerce. It estimated American box office receipts for 1960 at $1.37 billion, 7.5 per cent better than 1959. And the depart meij estimated that 1961 receipts will be even higher. The box offices have been click ing nicely in the first, month of 1961. Even the high-cost epics "Spartacus" and "The Alamo," which the crepe handors said would be heavy losses, appear to be prospering. Why is business - belter? I asked 20th Fox production boss Bob Goldstein, whose studio Is humming with its biggest activi ty in years. "There's a new attitude In Hol lywood," he said. "We have found out that we can get the people out of their homes if we give them enough incentive. It's en tirely up to us now. If we give them enough good attractions, we'll do business. "We're competing in the open ' market for the entertainment dol lar. Television is a big competi tor. It was great for the man who works all day and likes nothing better than to take off his shoes and sit in front of the TV set. "But there's his wife to consid er. She has been home all day and wants to get out If we can give her enough ammunition to get her husband out of the easy chair, they'll go to the theater. Apparently we're doing Just that." Goldstein speculated that many Americans have grown disen chanted with the sameness of TV and are, seeking more varied en tertainment in theaters. Whatever the reason, Hollywood is enjoying a lift in morale that it hasn't known In years. my husband two years ago. was 23 and he was 24. Our little girl was only an Infant. 1 admit I was hasty and wish I had con trolled my temper and not thrown him out of the house, Six months after our divorce he started to take out another wom an. This upset me although le gally I had no right to complain. I told him for the 'sake of our daughter he should not take up with another woman so soon. He told me to have my head ex amined. ,- j . He married that girl and they are expecting a child. She won't let him come near me and she, has even put a stop to his sup port checks. His father pays them. My daughter has not -seen her daddy In over a year al though he lives less than a mile from us. How can I get him to act like a father? HEADACHE! D e a r Headache: You can't force a manSto actike a father If he has no Inclination in that direction. When you threw out your hus band you threw out the baby's daddy.

Dear Ann Landers: I divorced I Deficit Of U.S. In International Finances May Drop Almost In Half By SAM DAWSON' AP Business News Analyst NEW YORK (AP) The United States is heading into Its fourth yfilr of red ink in its international finances. But the deficit a prime reason' for our loss of gold and (or fears about the dollar's strength may drop by almost one-half this year compared to 1960's worrisome drain. These are the views of a group of economists and financial offi cers of some of the top U. S. cor porations doing international busi ness. They forecast this years balance of payments deficit at $1.9; billion against 1960's estimated $3.2 billion. At the same time some observ ers In Britain a nation that g:A a big chunk of U. S. financial id in the postwar years point out that the United States can stop the deficits and the gold and dol lar drain at any time. The latest, the Daily Express in London, says whenever President Kennedy's advisers wish they can cut spending on "military proj ects abroad and on economic aid to foreign countries." The paper enve tli3t' U'hnl le ftaucinrr thn 'drain and it adds, "financial aid rarely helps the country that re ceives it. It 3ays, now, that Brit ain should have stood "on her own two feet." And in Washington it is report ed that the President has ordered a study of our overseas military spending as it fits into the mis sile age. But private industry's study group the Balance of Payments Group of the National Foreign Trade Council doesn't consider! the reasons for the spending, merely tries to forecast the amount of this yeai a outlays. It puts the 1961 outflow of dol lars this way: Commercial im ports of goods and raw materials will reach $15 billion, up $300 mil lion from 1960. It thinks that transportation, travel and miscel laneous services will add $4.9 bil lion, about the same as last year. The group expects military ex penditures to drop by $300 million to $2.7 billion. And it thinks for eigners will take $900 million, the same as last year, in returns on their Investments here. Group Sets Drive Plans Officers of the Community Con cert Association met recently with Mrs. PeafI A. Summers, Com-' district employed 50 per munity Concert representative, to' j- order t0 accomplish the products. Karlinger replaced Darroll Frewing as district ranger and Frewing was placed in charge of preliminary management work on Klamath Indian forest lands. Robert C. McQuown filled a new ly established position in June as senior timber management assist ant. He is guiding all timber man- agement activities in the district. McQuown returned to forest serv ice work alter spending two years in the Army. At the peak of the summer sea- crnmcnt capital of $1.2 billion, government economic aid of $1.7 billion, and private remittances of $600 million, The grand total outflow thus. comes to $29.3 billion, down $800 million from 1960. ,The group thinks this decrease in dollar outflow will be due in; the main to a big drop in the out flow of private short-term capital, which caused much' of the gold troubles late In 1960. Also it fore casts a drop of $1 billion in pri vate investment abroad. Jjt it thinks our imports will rise necause oi inventory reouua ing, continued prosperous busi-l ness conditions and a sustained strong sales effort on the part of European and Japanese export ers. While it is sending $29.3 billion abroad, the United .States is ex pected to take in $27.4 billion, a gain of $500 million over 1960. When the books are finally bal. onced, Uncle Sam will be out $1.9 billion, the group says providing. discuss plans for their annual membership drive. Dates for renewal of member ships in the organization have been set from March 6 to March 18, and new memberships will be taken from March 19-25. Artists from the 1961 series will not be selected until after the membership drive is completed. New officers for the group are Ross Ragland, president; Ray Bigger, vice president; Eva Dickson, secretary, and Jack Hop kins, treasurer. Ross Ragland and Letha Landis are co-chairmen of the member ship drive. A tea for Community Concert workers is being planned by Mrs. Eleanor Ehlers at a date to be announced later. But another $5.8 billion will be of course, government policies spent abroad. The group breaks this down into a net outflow of private capital of $2.3 billion, gov-l dont change, any business im proves mildly later this year as generally forecast.

' In the timber management por tion of forest administration, the district offered 24 sales contain ing a total of 68,199,000 board feet of timber. A total of 44,010,000 thousand board feet were removed during the year and a total of 80,664,000 feet were under contract at the close of the year. Among the sales were several large salvage lots, containing tim ber primarily from windthrown trees. The action was necessary to get the timber on the market before decay set in, said Karl inger.

The district set up an engineer ing staff to aid in multiple use management by engineering roads and the staff proved to be one of the most valuable aids m accom plishing of goals, said Karlinger. Manv of the road engineers are Oregon Technical Institute grad uates, he stated. Gerald Robinson is district en gineer in charge o; engineering operations in the district. Forty milts of roads were "slope staked"! and resident engineering work was done for 20 miles of road dur ing the year. A total of 68,700 tree seedlings were planted on the district by forest service crews and con tracted crews. In addition, 490 pounds of lodgepole pine seed was spread to reforest a lodgepole cut ting area. ' The district is within one plant ing season of currency in the re forestation program. That might be interpreted as excellent status. Each year has two planting sea sonsspring and fall. The reforestation system migni lag from one to two years behind cutting or burning and still be up-to-date, said Karlinger. Recreation accounts for much of the district's use and recrea tional use continues to increase rapidly. During the year, crews pu,t in a lot of work maintaining and cleaning up forest camps. "There is a grave need, how ever, says Karlinger, to Dripg many forest camps up to standard and to provide new camps." he I Fire control personnel on the district tackled 22 fires during the year. One was controlled at less than half an acre and the remainder all were controlled at a quarter-acre or less. Five fires were attributed to lightning and 16 to men... Trail crews maintained 137 miles of trail and 28 miles of telephone line during .the year. Last spring, the district leased additional office space at 1111 Wal nut Avenue to house timber man. agement and engineering staffs. Karlinger, in commenting on the ratio of man-caused to light, ning-caused fires, said, "I hope everyone will make a special e,f. fort to cut down the fire irrfi- dence rate this year. This is your national forest and we would like to soy it is of interest to each of us to prevent fires and conserve natural resources." Anyone interested in securing more uilormation concerning na tional forest management specif. I"ally on the Klamath District is encouraged to stop at the dis trict office in the post office building.
