Mill Lists
Fire Loss
CHlUiUlN-Damase to the
Simplot and DeVoe sawmill from
Tuesday night's fire has been es
timated at $20,000.
The estimate was made by an
insurance adjuster. Mill suuerin
tendent Warren Lough has had
electrical contractors inspecting
the damage and it was estimated
that the mill will be closed about
three weeks for repairs.
.mom 01 me damage was in
the electrical power system at
the sawmill, which employs
about 14 men. The fire broke out
Tuesday night in some motors
and spread to flooring and oth
er electrical equipment.
Some of the men idled by the
shutdown have been put to work
on ether jobs in the mill oner
ation, while others are taking
tneir vacations.
Drivers Pull
Big Salaries
CHICAGO CPU - He who
drives a truck rides on the
w heels of fortune. He may bring
home $13,000 a year.
And so do the truck driver's as
sociates, without whom he'd nev
er get on (he road, according to a
report by the American Trucking
Associations, Inc.
The field of trucking absorbs
the services of teachers, clerks,
engineers, accountants, skilled
workers, doctors, lawyers, mer
chants, firemen an insurance
specialists.
Paul E. Moler, personnel direc
tor of Consolidated Krcightways,
Inc., said: "We can use people
from every field."
Astronauts. Indian chiefs and
politicians. And union bosses.
The industry isn't so brash as
to claim a larger number of em
ployes than the government, but
vows it ranks second. And the in
dustry says a public servant rare
ly makes a trucking salary.
The association is intent on ex
ploding the theory that trucking
is made up of a bunch of hulk'ing
tough guys who habitale road
side eating spots.
When it comes to income, many
of the long - haul drivers took
home more than $15,000 last year,
the association claims.
As for the trucker's cultural
and education' level, the industry
.says a driver with a college de
cree is no longer a rare bird.
lOpera lovers, stereo addicts and
Ipart-lime artists are flooding the
industry, the industry report said.
; The truck driver often heads a
suburban family, belongs to the
country club and sends his ehil
dren to college.
! Truck drivers are so well paid,
reports the International Brother
Ihood ol Teamsters, that the union
! intends to examine drivers' tax
brackets before deciding how
hard to hit management in next
October's contract negotiations.

Firemen Subdue
Gas Line Blaze
A machine being used on the La
cuna Street repair project Fri
day morning apparently clipped
off a natural gas line and flames
shot more than 13 feet into the
air.
City firemen quickly subdued
the fountain of flames with a
chemical extinguisher and the
leak was sealed by a California
Pacific Utilities Company crew.
The gas which shot out of the
damaged gas line was apparently
ignited by a spark, firemen
said. The incident occurred at
9:30.
What can the average driver do
to halt the resumption of the
point program,
-
Be ready, for the unexpected
whenever you see a group of chil
drcn in a schoolyard or near a
street. Baseballs, basketballs and-
footballs lake strange bounces,
and make children forget about
oncoming traffic,
Give yourself an even greater
margin for safety in rainy or win
ter weather, when streets are
slick and it becomes much hard
er to stop quickly. .
Whether schools arc in ses
sion or not, keep your car in top
mechanical condition. Be sure it
will respond to your command.
In addition to its campaign for
lhe 'prevention of deaths in traf
fic accidents, the council has
urged better fire protection in
schools, more school bus control
and safctv. and continued c.xpan-
courses
in the high schools.
The council urges all school dis
tricts to install automatic sprin
kler systems as well as fire ex
tinguishers and fire alarms. As
the result of an extensive testing
program tlie council found that
no fire alarm system was univer
sally satisfactory.
Nearly 43 million children will
use school buses daily this year.
School nflicials stress that the
students' salety depends much on
the behavior of passengers.

CAIRO (UPIi-Two years after
the government's whopping take

of the country's private busi

the United Arab Republic is con

alized eight contracting, transport

Compensation to former owners
will be paid in the usual form of

Earlior. nearly 400 apartment
blocks and office buildings, among
the most luxurious in the country,
were taken over in a roundabout
way.
The buildings, mostly in Cairo,
Alexandria and other big cities,
formerly belonged to wealthy per
sons whose property was put un
der sequestration in 1961 and 1962
in President Carnal Abdel-Nas
ser's bid to trim the power of
the rich. The sequestration au
thorities sold them to insurance
companies, which all are government-owned.
The prices, in some
cases lower than original costs,
will be paid by the insurance
companies to the Sequestration
department in annual install

Supreme Guide
This policy was incorporated in
the National Charier adopted last
year as the supreme guide of'thc
U.A.R. s future actions.
'JThc people's (state! control
over all the tools of production
does not necessitate the national
ization of all means of production
or the abolition of private owner
ship," the Charter said. It per
mitted the existence ol "a private
sector that would, without e.xploi
tation, participate in development
within the framework of its over
all plan."
But as the situation stands now,
the private sector is shrinking
steadily.
The government is reported
considering a plan under which
import permits would be issued
to government owned organiza
tions and companies only. If
adopted, .such a measure would
eliminate private business com
pletely from the country's foreign
trade.

Noted Writers Prefer
Pencil To Typewriter
NEW YORK lUPH - The lead
pencil has its points when it
comes to the writing of books.
Many professional writers as
well as statesmen and military
men who jot down their memoirs
seem to preler working on a
U manuscript in pencil.
Former President Herbert
Hoover wrote his autobiography
in pencil. He told publishers it
helped him "eliminate excess
wordagc." Gladys Schmitt, au
thor of the ()j7-pagc novel, "Rem
brandt," switched from typewriter
to pencil and notebook when writ
ing about the famous Dutch paint
er. "I am inclined to write more
slowly 'with a pencil," she ex
plained, "and can make changes
more easily."
Field Marshal Montgomery
wrote iiis 200.000-word memoirs
in pencil. Ernest Hemingway's
works also came through the tip
of a pencil.
Dr. Norman Vincent Pcale said
he wrote a second best-seller in
pencil because 30.000 words he
had dictated for "The Power ol
Positive Thinking" had to be
thrown away. Like Hoover, Dr.
Pcale said a pencil kept him
from being verbose.

Pick Out Own Clothes,
Designer Informs Men
NEW YORK (UPK-BiU Blass.
who is a famous designer in his
own right, thinks designers
hould stay away from men's'
clothing. And he also thinks men
hould pick out their own clothes
and not let their wives do it for
them.
By picking out his own clothes
and not bothering to design any
thing for himself he achieves a
sartorial elegance rarely seen in
these parts. Suits and shoes are
custom made but "I wear ready
made shirts thev fit well and
they're so expendable."
Blass. who has won two Fash
ion Critics Awards as a designer
for Maurice Rentner Ltd., dis
misses the thought of designing
men s wear with: A so-called
design would just be a collection
of gimmicks and men don't want
gimmicks. They should find out
what looks good on them and
stick to that."
Personally I'm bored with the
Madison Avenue type of dress,"
he said. "I suppose it's because
1 am in Europe so much 1 pre
fer the English look even though
there is some conformity there
loo. Tile English are never afraid
their masculinity or virility will
be questioned if they wear some
thing offbeat.
I'm afraid actors and ac
tresses are really the only ones
who seem to influence men's
dress. Cary Grant has a very
good effect. But that doesn't go
lor California. In Beverly Hills
Hills men wear sports jackets'
when their wives are in evening
dress. It is not very conducive to
good dress."
During the daytime Blass
wears old plaids and stripes,
usually with a solid blue shirt
and a plain black knitted lie and
explains: "If a man wants to be
daring he should do it in the day
time. I have to wear a dinner
jacket five or six nights a week
and that's no time to wear any
thing daring.
"I stick to black none of
those fancy things. I also like to
light up a cigar after dinner. It
has a certain elegance, or style.
s very masculine and is some
tiling tlie ladies haven't latched
on to.
And if you arc going to light

And about the women:
"I deplore tlie fact tliat so
many women help select men's
clothes. The American woman
has a dreadful tendoncy to over
accessorize. Men should be more
casual. Mr. Astaire does it to
perfection. He is so well put to
gether it looks like a throwaway.
