While Collar Thieves
Often you’ll get a lot of scoffing when it’s
suggested that the moral fiber of this country is
weakening in places where it ought to be healthy
and strong.
Yet the quiet thievery of many who wear the
cloak of honesty is evidence that is hard to gainsay.
Recently a management engineer declared in
Connecticut that 250 companies will go out of busi-
ness this year because of thefts by officers or other
company employes. The total in 1959 was roughly
200.
He said employes will steal more than four
billion dollars a day, with executives and super-
visors taking most. The probable yearly haul of
more than one billion dollars will come to more
than twice the total stolen from the public annually
by burglars and robbers.
These big losses, some of which will never be
discovered, must be compounded by some five bil-
lion dollars paid out by business yearly in kickbacks
by purchasing agents, order-takers, payola dis-
pensers and whatnot.
The engineer guessed that prices in many fields
could be cut 15 per cent if stealing and kickbacks
could be wiped out.
Quite a commentary. Apparently a good many
people don’t give much weight to the word “legiti-
mate” in legitimate business.
CORSICA, S. D., GLOBE: “ . . . Europeans dis-
covered years ago, it is possible to go broke with
one’s pockets full of money. In this connection a
dramatic incident is reported in a recent issue of
the Saturday Evening Post: an American, making
what he assumed was a final trip before the war
on a German boat to England, threw all his German
Marks into the harbor. A Gestapo agent, looking on,
appeared shocked. Actually the marks had no value
off the ship and both men knew it.
“Of course, that kind of inflation can’t happen
here!”

WASHINGTON m — Senators
investigating juvenile delinquen-
cy are concerned with the in-
creasing narcotics traffic across
the Mexican border, especially
into Texas and California.
El Paso County Judge Wood-
row Bean gave, in a letter, this
description of the situation in
his area.
“It is just as easy for a juv-
enile to purchase heroin, mari-
juana, liquor or pornography in
Juarez (Mexico) as it is for a
10-year old child to buy a soli
drink, in any city in the United
States.
“For your information, those
good citizens who live in Juarez
and who constitute the vast ma-
jority are just as anxious for the
present free flow of narcotics to
be stopped as we are here in the
United States.”
To the extent that narcotics are
involved in juvenile delinquency
a Senate judiciary subcommittee
is taking up studies carried on
by Texas Gov. Price Daniel
when he, while a senator headed
a special Judiciary narcotics
control subcommittee a few years
ago. The current juvenile delin-
quency subcommittee has called
as the opening witness in its
latest series of hearings another
Texan—Treasury Secretary Ro
bent B. Anderson.
While the invitation to testify
was addressed to Anderson, the
details of the problem are to be

Some Easing
Seen Ahead
On Money
By SAM DAWSON
NEW YORK ®) — Tighter or
easier money ahead? Better
chance of financing a new home
or other purchase or of borrow-
ing for your business deals?
President Eisenhower in his
annual economic report to Con-
gress says more money should
be available for investment this
year.
But many bankers are saying
that the demand for loans is
growing and money is so tight
that an increase in their inter-
est charges is overdue. They
want the Federal Reserve Sys-
tem to take the first step by
hiking its discount rate, or what
it charges them when they bor-
row from it.
The federal reserve is holding
its own counsel about that.
The U.S. Treasury has some
big refinancing ito pull off next
month and so will be dealing with
lenders again. It isn’t anxious
to see rates rise.
But, like 'the President, the
Treasury sees some easing ahe'hd
in the money market. This is be-
cause last year it had to raise
eight billion dollars of new mon-
ey. To do so it is competed act-
ively with everyone else who
wanted to borrow. This helped
seend interest rates higher.
This year the Treasury hopes
to reverse that. Not only will it
be seeking no new money, ex-
cept for short periods, but even
hopes to be returning some two
billion dollars to ithe money mar-
ket, cutting the federal debt by
that much.
If President Eisenhower’s
hopes of a budget surplus in the
next fiscal year are fulfilled,
the Treasury will be cutting the
debt further and returning more
money to the market.
Bankers and financers of mort-
gages say thalt will be all to the
good. But the immediate pros-
pect, they still contend, is for an
increasing credit pinch as busi-
ness activity rteps up, and per-
haps higher interest rates—cer-
tainly no declining ones.
The President’s hopes for more
available investment money seem
based in great part on his belief
that incomes will soar this year
making, more savings possible.
He also wants Congress to help
by doing the three things he
stressed again in his economic
message: 1. Keep spending down
so there will be a budget sur
plus. 2. Hold tax rates where
they are so that -the surplus can
be used for cutting the debt. 3.
Take the shackles off the Treas-
ury so it can borrow in what-
ever market seems best and
not, as now, be forced to hit
only the short-term market
where great demand has sent
borrowing costs soaring.
threshed out with two men under
him—Narcotics Bureau Director
Harry Anslinger and Customs
Bureau Director Ralph Kelly.
The senators want to know
what can be done to more ef-
fectively curtail the flow of dope
into the United States from Mex-
ico, and how more coopertaion
to that end may be prompted be-
tween local, state, and federal
officials.
Later after hearing State De-
partment witnesses, the sub-
committee expects to conclude
the current hearings. But it may
reopen them later and invite
witnesses from Mexican border
areas to testify — Judge Bean
likely would be among those
called.
In his letter to the Senate
committee, Bean said the State
Department is taking a kid
gloves attitude toward the prob-
lem for fear of offending the
Mexican government.
“I am sure that you will agree
that the youth of El Paso county
and of the United States should
not be sacrificed for our so-
called good neighbor policy,” he
added.
Bean suggested passage of a
law which would require that
juveniles be prohibited from
crossing the border into Mexico
unless accompdhied by their
parents or a guardian.

The Washington Merry-Go-Round
By DREW PEARSON
WASHINGTON—There’s a lot ed in conspiracy against it, he
Mexican food is always a fav-
orite among Texans here, and
pretty Kay Wharton in Rep.
Bruce Alger’s office drew envi-
ous eyes from all when she got
a box of jalapenos and other hot
delicacies from across the Rio
Grande.
Although now on Ithe secretar-
ial staff of the Dallas congress-
man, Miss Wharton is originally
from McAllen. While spending
Christmas there with her mother,
Mrs. J. O. Wharton, she arrang-
ed to have the Mexican food
shipped up.

guests when the president deli-
vered his State of the Union mes-
sage was Mrs. Omar Burleson.
The wife of the Abilene-Anson
district congressman, a Demo-
crat, laughingly explained how
she happened to be there. She
said she had given up her own
ticket to another gallery section
to someone without a ticket who
wanted to get in. Then, intend-
ing to seek standing room else-
where, she found a doorman es-
corting guests into the executive
section of the gallery.
The only other Texan seated
in the section, incidentally, was
Mrs. Tom Clark, wife of the
Supreme Count justice.

INVESTS $200 MILLION

more 'than Senator McClellan of
Arkansas published regarding
that waste of U.S. government
money in Bolivia.
What Senator McClellan didn’t
report is that Bolivian Foreign
Minister Victor Andrade, now
Bolivian ambassador in Wash-
ington, made .repeated attempts
to get better cooperation beween
American and Bolivian officials.
On one occasion he called in
U.S. Ambassador Philip Bonsai
and International Cooperation
Administration Director Marcus
Quinn and said.
“There’s too much red tape
between ICA and the Bolivian
government. They sometimes
send letters to each other when
they’re in the same building.
They should call each other on
the telephone or go to see each
other.
“I’d like to bring everyone
closer together and I would be
delighted to talk to your ICA
people. I’ll talk to them in En-
glish. I won’t lecture them, I’ll
just tell 'them more about how
the Bolivian government oper-
ates so we can all work together
more closely.” ,1.
Ambassador Bonsai and ICA
chief Quinn thanked the foreign
minister enthusiastically, said
they would like to cooperate.
This was almost a year ago. But
Andrade has not yet heard as to
when they want the meeting. Ob-
viously they didn’t want one.
Meanwhile the State Depart-
ment made cooperation even
more difficult by hiring Bolivians
who opposed the present govern-
ment.
Last spring, when a Bolivian
revolution killed 160 people and
its leader finally committed sui-
cide, the friend who stood be-
side him as he died was Alvar-
ez Lafaye. Believe it or not, La-
faye was ICA chief of transport.
Though a bitter enemy of the
Bolivian government and engag-
had been given an important job
by U.S. officials.
No Help With Beds
When Foreign Minister And-
rade was in Washington about a
year ago he tried to buy the seed
or a fast-growing pine tree cul-
tivated in Florida. He wanted to
plant it on his farm outside La
Paz. The seed was impossible
to buy in the North so he asked
the Bolivian consul in Miami to
find one. Again purchase was im-
possible. But through thoughtful
Gov. Leroy Collins of Florida
the Department of Agriculture
in Washington finally sent And-
rade a small package of seed,
together with a copy of a let-
ter instructing the American
food and agriculture officer in
La Paz, Eugene C. Reichard, to
help Andrade get the seeds
planted.
Reichard, however, did not get
in touch with the Bolivian for-
eign minister to help. Several
weeks went by. Finally, at an
American Embassy reception
Reichard came up to Andrade
and said, “I understand you
have some seeds and need some
advice on planting them.”
“Yes,” replied the foreign
minister, “I was hoping to hear
from you.”
Reichard said he would go out
to Andrade’s farm to test the
soil and help get the seeds
planted.
“I’ll be glad to have you stay
at my house while you are
there, said the foreign minister.
“I know how much you Ameri-
cans like plumbing, and we have
very modern plumbing.”
But the foreign minister never
heard from Reichard again. He
went ahead and planted the seeds
himself. Some months later, af-
ter they had sprouted, he bump
ed into ithe American farm ex-
pert. Reichard apologized for not
carrying out the instructions
from Washington, but said he
would like to help, even though
late.

ture Minister Julian Rodriguez

Certain Notations Can be Helpful
By JOSEPHINE LOWMAN
While living by lists alone would
be very dull, a few of them can
make life much easier and can
save energy and time for things
we want to do but never have
time for.
For instance, a master grocery
list in the kitchen is a marvelous
time and energy saver. This
should be kept in one place and
items should be added as they
occur to you.
“Running out of things” is one
of the greastest leaks in the dis-
organized housewife’s life. She is
always dashing to the grocery
at the last minute or sending a
member of her family there for
some forgotten item.
I think that every woman also
need; another master list on
which she notes those many mis-
cellaneous items that require at-
tention.
I have a bulletin board in my
study which has been the great-
est help to me. I live a rather
complicated life since I run a
house, have a full-time career,
have an attractive husband and
two children (they are attractive,
too), lead a fairly active social
life and go on lecture trips and
so forth. Therefore my bulletin
board always has the strangest
assortment of notes on it. If I had
separate lists for every category
I would be sure to lose a few
of them.
These notes are scribbled an
small pieces of paper which are
attached to the board with thumb
tacks so that they can be easily
removed or attached. I just look-
ed at the board and the collec-
tion is almost unbelievable. The
following are the attached notes.
Call vet about my poodle. Do
more research about greying hair.
Call electrician about short-circuit.
Get hair fixed on the 29th, 2 p. m.,
the 5th, 3 p. m., and the 12th at
10 a. m. (that’s how far ahead
one has to make appointments).
Menus for a buffet supper. Wire
my sister on her birthday. Floors
polished on Saturday. Do some-
thing about that door which
squeaks. Mail off the things our
children left here at Christmas
vacation. Remember my Godson’s
birthday.
Then in big letters — Do your
exercises and count calories, be-
ginning TODAY. You see, I have
gained a few pounds over the holi-
days, even if you didn’t. But —
bet you aid!
(Released by The Register and
Tribune Syndicate, 1960).
Andrade replied that the trees
were ready to be transplanted
and he could use some advice
on that subject. <■
Again Reichard promised he
would help the man who had been
the consistent friend of the U.S.
—again Andrade never heard
from him.
It illustrates why we are los-
ing friends in Latin America.
Aftermath of Strike
The public is still waiting tc
see when and how much steel
prices are going up. But Mrs.
Arthur Goldberg, wife of the
United Steelworkers counsel, is
not waiting up any more over
the telephone.
The other day she got a phone
call from Edgar Kaiser, head of
Kaiser Industries, whose com-
pany settled first with the steel-
workers thereby helping to end
the strike. The call was for
Mrs. Goldberg.
“My husband isn’t in,” she re-
plied, misunderstanding.
“But I want to speak to Mrs.
Goldberg, not Mr. Goldberg,1
said Kaiser.
“I just want to apologize for
waking you up at 2 a.m., and to
tell you I am not going to both-
er your husband at that hour
any more.” •

Herman Edelsberg, Washing-
ton representative of the Anti-
Defamation League, is being
pushed for Assistant Attorney
General in charge of civil rights,
an excellent choice . . . Merl
Young, the RFC official whose
wife received that famous mink

If Jack Kennedy loses out on the

Mike DiSalle of Ohio for Vice
President. DiSalle is the man
who gave Kennedy his biggest
push by swinging the entire
Ohio delegation to him. Both are
Catholics . . . Senator Kefauver
of Tennessee has received com-
plaints that some doctors collect
payola for sending their patients
to favorite pharmacists. Some
pharmacists are reported to pro-
vide doctors with rent-free of-
fices in return for their pre-
scription business . . . What
Vice President Nixon and Sen.
Aiken of Vermont discussed in
their secret huddle the other
day was quite simple. Nixon is
worried over Secretary Benson’s,
unpopularity in the farm belt.
So he asked Senator Aiken, a
Vermont farmer, to go into the
farm belt to conteract Ezra.

THE FFA LIVESTOCK Show
was a big success in every
way. The boys learned a great
deal about how to produce bet-
ter quality animals, which will
go a long way toward produc-
ing a better economy for Wil-
liamson County.
That’s the main purpose of
the show, of course.
And the purpose was cer-
tainly revealed in the total price
paid for all the. animals —
$9,925.95. That’s a lot of money,
and the buyers are to be highly
commended for shelling out that
much cash for such a good pur-
pose. The total amount of mon-
ey was $648.43 above the figure
of last year.
Actually, when you add the
premiums paid to the total sales,
we came out with a $10,548.94
show!
The Chamber has been bill-
ing this as the biggest show of
its kind in Texas. I’m sure
that’s true. If it weren’t, we
would have heard from some-
body by now.
The Taylor Chamber of Com-
merce deserves a bright, red
feather in its cap for sponsoring
the big event. General Chair-
man “Dusty” Rhoades should
be singled out for individual
honors.
MULTIPLE BIRTHS — The
following was lifted from a re-
cent issue of The Dallas News
because it contains mention of
Mrs. Charles G. Hannan and her
quintuplets:
Three young Texas mothers
who met in Japan have com-
pletely upset what scientists
call genetic pi’obabilities (book-
ies call them odds) of multiple
births.
Boyle Column
Two of them, including Mrs.
John R. Durio Jr. of 5334 Jun-
ius, have had twins since they
were Air Force wives and ’ fel-
low officers of St. Margaret’s
Society, a religious club for wo-
men, in Tokyo.
The third had quintuplets.
The medical books say twins
are born once in about 80
pregnacies. The chance of hav-
ing quints is one in 42 million,
The odds against three friends
all having multiple births with-
in three months are such as to
give a monster headache to an
electronic brain.
The Durios, were stationed at
Yokota Air Force Base near
Tokyo in 1958.
In February of 1958, Mrs.
Durio was elected correspond-
ing secretary for St. Margaret’s
Society. In the same election
Mrs. Charles G. Hannan of San
Antonio (formerly of Taylor),
was named secretary and Mrs.
Joe Smith of San Antonio trea-
surer.
The Texas trio had never
met in the Lone Star State. but
became close friends in Japan.
Mrs. Durio, marveling this
week at the long arm of coinci-
dence, recalled reading last Oct-
ober of the birth of quintuplet
girls to Lt. and Mrs. Charles
G. Hannan. (The tiny prema-
ture babies later died).
Two weeks later, in Dallas,
identical twin sons, Michael
Dennis and Mark Douglas, were
born to the Durios.
“I was just plain shocked,”
said Mrs. Durio, “when I heard
the other day that Capt. and
Mrs. Joe Smith had had twins
— a boy and a girl — on
Christmas Eve.”
Police Have Tired Ears
Listening to Complaints
NEW YORK ® — Remarks
that policemen get tired of hear-
ing—or overhearing:
“Don’t try to push me around,
sonny, I’ve got friends at city
hall.”
“Officer, would you mind
watching my child while I go
into this store? I won’t be gone
but a minute.”
“First of all, let’s just get one
thing Straight: Are you a public
servant or not?”
“What if I did belt her one?
She’s my wife—not yours.”
“He couldn’t be very smart.
He’s still on foot.”
“Do you have any idea whom
you are arresting?”
“Where do you fellows hide
out? You can never find .a po-
liceman when you really need
one.”
“Why aren’t you out catching
bank robbers instead of annoy-
ing law abiding citizens?”
“Whaddaya mean I was doing
70? If this buggy ever got over
50, the engine would fall out.’
“I was halfway across the
street when the light turned
red.”
“You must be mistaken, officer.
My boy wouldn’t do a thing like
that.”
“Do you guys get a medal for
handing out the most parking
tickets?”
“I tell you it was those new
cold tablets that made me woozy.
I haven’t had a drink since New
Year’s Eve.”
“There’s a ten spot in it
you if you just forget all abou
it.”
“Somebody must have, pushed
my car closer to that fire hy-
drant. I was 20 feet away when
I parked it.”
“He wouldn’t talk so tough
without that badge and gun.”
“I bought five tickets to the
policeman’s ball, and this is the
reward I get.”
“Please don’t give me a .tic-
ket, officer. My dad will never
let me drive the car again.” . ..
“What stop sign? I thought it
was a shaving cream ad.”
“Give a guy a whistle and a
tin badge and right away he
thinks he’s Napoleon.”
“Wherfs the last time you paid
for an apple?”

that with Thee I can do all
things Thou wouldst have me
to do. Help me to dedicate to
Thee my life, my talents, my
possessions. Teach me today to
trust and obey Thee. In the
Saviour’s name I pray. Amen.
COLLEGE DEAN RESIGNS
SPRINGFIELD, Mo. — The
dean of Evangel College here,
Dr. Klaude Kendrick, has re-
signed to become president of
Southwestern Bible Institute at
Waxahachie, Texas., effective
next June.
WASHINGTON — (NEA) — At
a party tossed by the Women’s
National Press Club to celebrate
the new session of Congress, Sen.
Hiram Fong (R-Hawaii) an-
nounced that a Chinese, instead
of the famed Captain Cook, dis-
covered the Hawaiian Islands.
Fong explained:
“Ten years prior to Captain
Cook’s visit, a Chinese junk left
Hong Kong and sailed eastward
across the vast Pacific. Dropping
anchor at Waikiki, the captain
pulled out his spyglass, scanned
the shore and this is what he saw
—beautiful Hawaiian maidens,
dressed in grass skirts, dancing
to the tune of ukuleles.,
“Putting his spyglass down, he
turned to his men and said, ‘Men,
we must sail on. There is no
laundry to be done here.’ And
this is the reason you’ll find so
many Chinese laundries in Cali-
fornia.”
SENATOR LONG also warned
all politicians to beware of
“okolehao.” It is the Hawaiian
equivalent of moonshine liquor.
He explained, “Two drinks
have been known to cause even
Republicans to question the
Americanism of Abraham Lin-
coln.”
NOT TO BE OUTDONE by his
colleague, Sen. Oren Long (R-
Hawaii) gave the following tips
to presidential candidates who
plan to campaign in the islands:
“First, there must- be on-the-
ground campaigning. Trying to
reach the Hawaiian voter by
television is like courting a girl
through a. picket fence—it is
difficult to make proper contact.
“This necessitates transporta-
tion. The airline companies will
carry them cheaper by the dozen.
I’d suggest that Democratic Na-
tional Committee Chairman Paul
Butler charter a DC-7. Republi-
can Chairman Thruston Morton
should have no difficulty in Se-
curing a monoplane. They, are
inexpensive and easily con-
trolled. |
“For a really spectacular
splash, candidates and their
wives might arrange their ar-
rivals by surfboard, riding in
on a roller to Waikiki Beach.”
THE WEEK’S most crowded
wingding was the birthday part
that Texas lobbyist Dale Miller
and his wife tossed for House
Speaker Sam Rayburn. Practi-
cally all of the 400 invited guests
showed up.
Several times during the
evening the three-room celebra-
tion became so packed that it
was impossible for guests to
move anything but their mouths.
Dale’s secretary Georgia Kora-
hais describes it this way:
“I was stuck so long under,
a chandelier that I got a tan.”
MOST STARTLING business
stationery in town belongs to re-
tiring labor chieftain John L.
Lewis. Stamped at the top of
each letter is an elaborate seal
and the words “Office of the
President.”
It takes a magnifying glass,
however, to read the emblem’s
small print which says, “United
Mine Workers of America.”
WHEN SENATORS got back
to town, they found their old
two-car subway system had been
expanded. It now contains four
18-seat coaches that can make
the office-to-Capitol run in about
52 seconds.
While showing off the new cars
to Senate Majority Leader Lyn-
don Johnson, (D-Tex.) an
American Car and Foundry offi-
cial cracked: “The subway is go-
ing to make history this year. For
the first time the Senate will be
able to get a quorum together in
one minute.” -——^
