What are you doing TOT Mother this year? We have many lovely gifts that she would enjoy through out the year-Nylon lingerie is al- ways desirable; and who wouldn't be able to use a box of Luxite hosiery in the beautiful summer colors?

 Graduation is coming very soon too. So don't forget the girls, who love pretty clothes, too, and are experiencing the high point of their last twelve years. If your friend is going on to school she will need sweaters, skirts, jackets, lingerie, hose, and accessories to vary her costumes and her needs will be much the same if she works in an office. So don't over look the lovely things you get for your favorites at Betty's :. See you soon. -. BETTY

US. UNUSED FUNDS TOTAL slss BILLION

joint Senate-House Committee recently reported
The Government had $135 billion dollars in unspent
appropriations of January, 1853 The committee est-
mated that unspent balances July st when the next
fiscal year begins, win be 102 billion dollars.
Senator Harry Byrd, Democrat of Virginia. chairman
of the committee has been wagng unsuccessful cam
paign (hus farl to have u s. policy altered so
that current appropriations could be postponed perhaps
year while the unspent balances which have accrued in
many agencies drawn upon.
Considerable opposition has developed to this propos-
al and the military has argued that Of its appropa-
ons must be made far advance heavy items take
several years to produce Opposition has developed from
other government agencies and Senator Byrds plan
long way from implementation at the present time
The Byrd idea is a good one since it could save the
Government many billions of dolarS-merey by postpon-
ing the actual appropriations year The effect would be
TO reduce years appropriations tremendously allow the
budget TO be balanced taxes TO be reduced and billions
paid on the national debt.
While cannot dispute the argument advanced BY
Defense Department officials would we want to de-
lay vital defense procuremeuts it possible that savings
could be realized in other nondeense agencies and de-
partments the recommendation of Senator Byrd is fol-
lowed Apparently the Senator will have to wait another
year push his proposal but though his
dations have been followed this year certainly the
idea is good and perhaps way will be found in fu-
ture years take advantage of the opportunity afforded
by the proposal.

FOREIGN AID AND TARIFFS

1t IS becoming increasingly clear that if the United
States reduces the of foreign aid to its allies
sure to lower tariff foreign goods will increase
tremendously.
Business leaders from all over the world recently
gathered in Vienna and u S. tariff policies in the coming
month was considerable.
The chief spokesman for the United States at this
meeting Warren Lee Person. chairman of the United
States Council of the International Chamber Commerce.
Reassrng business representatives from foreign coun-
tries Person said he had been more optimistic on
come less restrictive.
is well to note in this connection that many major
powers now depending the United States for raw
teras currently being tempted by the Soviet Union
which is making competitive offers For instance the Jap
anese are being offered Russian oil much cheaper
price than they buy the oil from the United States
The Russians offering other powers grain at price
below that at which U. S. grain has been selling
In other words, the economic phase of the cold war
IS getting hotter While do not wish see any u S. in
dustry suffer unnecessarily point out that gradually
reduced tariff will allow the u S. buy many
goods at lower prices tariffs lowered too drastica
y, many could of course put out of the
market since the job they have might be in an industry
which is eliminated in drastic tariff reduction.
The issue is complicated and one which the pres
ent Administration is reviewing. President Dwight
D. Eisenhower has indicated to foreign representatives
that he favors gradually reducing tariffs That must be
our goal if trade with the outside world to be ex-
banded.

BY RELMAN NORM
lFoT Hal RoyIel

NEW YORK R-About four years
ago, something called canast ia
reached these shores, probably by
slithering down a ships hawser in
the dead of night.
Soon after, came the two-headed
cousin, samba, yuck-yucking and
drooling.
Now, this nation has had fevers
before, but they have always run
their course and vanished in fairly
short order. 1t has survived such
innocent lunacieS as the helmet
hat, bell-bottom pants, yo-yos, the
make, and gold fish swalloing
contests.
But this canasta- samba business
goes right on, and l am beginning
to view with alarm.
They say bad money drives out
good, and apparently that goes for
games, too. Try and find proper
rubber of bridge these days. That
| plastic ash-tray comes in with the
coffee, and another dreary evening
begins.
1t has occurred to me that these
two travestieS of skill and intelli-
gence bear some resemblance to
what is known as Russian bank.
Could it be, do you suppose, that
their true names are canastavitch
and sambaSkapol? Is it possible
that they were introduced by Rus
sian agents in order to tear down
the moral fibre of America, under
mine our institutions, debauch our
young people. and paralyze the
brains of their parents?
1t seems so obvious. Bridge has
the classic beauty, balance and
symmetry of a Greek temple.
To play the game to the hilt calls
for a top /. O., great force of
character, Shrewd judgment of OPP
ponents, keen intuition, dash, dar-
ing and panache. A nation of bridge
players, therefore, would be dan
gerous enemy. Moscow knows that
as well as anybody.
By contrast, canasta and samba
require nothing beyond the ability
to sit, and to distinguish a spade
from a diamond.
They are, If / may say so, pre-
eminently pastimes for women.
You don't have to think; in fact,

that canaSta did not appear here
until the Russians had run into
some serious Set-backs in the cold
war. When we rared up and banged
them with the Berlin airlift and
beat their guerillas on the Greek
border, it became obvious that we
weren't as soft as we looked.
That was the moment picked to
ship over the Red three's, wild
jokerS and deuceS, the arguments
about the cloSed-versus-open Ca.
naSta, and the nonsensical business
of drawing two and diScarding one.
Oh, they knew what they were do
ing, all right!
1t had been reported, and ac-
curately, that Dwight D. Eisen-
hover, who was then a five-star
general, and his chief of staff in
NAT0, Gen. AL Gruenther, are
both hot bridge players. The plot
could hardly be palmer.
If the Reds could get these two
to forsake bridge for canasta, the
Western Defense Alliance would
never come into being, and in fact,
the whole struggle would be over,
then and there.
They have accused us of attempt
ing germ warfare in China.
l think it is high time for the
United Nations to go formally into
the question: Who introduced ca
naSta and Samba into the United
States?
If I h e responsibility can be
pinned where / suspect il belongs,
the Russians viii be dead ducks in
world public opinion.
