In travelling on the straight
road man starts with God and
ends with God. In travelling
straight one always returns to
his starting place. In travelling
the straight road one touches
the North, South, East and

No matter where we begin we
will always return home. In the
beginning God created the
heavens and the earth. Man
was included in this creation
and at that time began his
journey. He may get off the

wells opinion, may be pulled
back more quickly from the
brink Of delinquency on the
theory that a child who has
had q negative reaction from
a group is better on than the
child who has had no reaction
from his fellows.
The workshop members say
emotions seem to be nearest
the surface in about IS per
cent of the children when they
reach the age of 6 years. Then
they express themselves more
frankly. sometimes cruelty,
and exhibit their likes and
diSlikeS clearly.
When the child has reached
about "a years, on the other
hand, true emotions can be
discerned in only about IS per
cent because the child has
begun to draw away from
adult control; to set up bar
riers against adult authority
and to consider more the
judgment of his peers.
Visiting Teachers
In the adolescent years the
workshop recognizes the im-
portance of the role of the
visiting teacher''-not just
renamed truant officer-but
the classroom teacher who
frequently goes to the home,
not only to criticize child be-
hayior, but to praise it.
This need, the workshop
acknowledges, Is not within
the power of teachers presently
to supply. It requires smaller
classes and more teachers,
hence more classrooilas, re-
duirement which tax-raiSing
bodies have shown a reluctance
to meet even Inc areas that
otherwise are not backward.
Butthe workshop participants
think the price would be jiisti-
fed by reduced costs of courts,
jails and welfare agencies.
One of the startling dis
Closures of the workshop is
evidence that teachers find
greater acceptance of their eff
forts to adjust school home
child conflicts among parents
ION the other side Of the
tracks" than among parents
of so-called middle class"
and upper strata" homes.
There keeping up with the
Joneses is described as one
family trait strongly detri-
mental to the child.
Bad Examples
Here are some types of
parental behavior which the
workshop considers TO be part
of the basis for child misbe-
havior in the classroom:
. Telling falsehoods when the
child knows the truth.
. An attitude Of do as I
say, not as,I do"
. Too great emphasis on the

ests have been pulling at the
other end of the rope.
Hardly had the bin gone
through the Senate when the
press reported Brazil as seek
ing $35 million for the expan-
sion Of the Volta Redonda
steel plant. originally built
with Eximbank dollars. Brazil
also put out feelers, it was
said, for Q new large credit to
remedy its revived general
dollar shortage.
One Of the Eisenhower adj
ministration's first loan deci-
sions had to do with Brazil's
$475 million commercial debt
to American traders and in
veStors. The result was last
years $500 million loan to
Brazil by the Eximbank, to
enable that country to pay of
American firms which had
sold goods in Brazil but had
not been allowed to get pay
ment in dollars. A few months
ago the $500 million loan
agreement was amended to al
low Brazil more time for re-
payment.
Since the money which the
Eximbank lends comes from
the United States Treasury,
and since our Federal budget
is in the red. with the public
debt scraping the ceiling of the
debt limit, the process Of help
ing our businessmen export via
Eximbank credits tends to rem
der more difficult the fiscal
problems Of the United States
Treasury.
For. when the Congress or
ders the Eximbank to be more
active in its loans abroad and
gives it an extra half-billion
dollars. the Congress prac-
tically obligates itself sooner
or later to raise the public debt
limit by the same amount, un-
less it provides the dollars
through taxes. Either way
the United States taxpayer
bears the burden-through de-
valuation of his dollar or
through higher taxes.
Competition increasing
One reason for the export
ers' pressure on the Congress
is the increased competition
Europeans and the japanese
are giving our businessmen in
Latin America and elsewhere.
In World War II, as In
World War I, Latin America
was pretty much cut of from
its normal European suppliers.
Consequently American firms
got the business. But in the
past few years Germany, Eng
land. France, Italy and other
countries have been able to re-
enter the Latin American mar
kets, particularly with goods
which involve a high proper
: ton Of hand labor.
Moreover, through the
Marshall Plan we have given
competing countries the best
of modern factory equipment.
We have brouulat their produc-
tivity teams here to educate
them in our industrial tech
iL4ueS. IN osner countries such
techniques are kept very secret.
TO a degree, therefore, our
exporters of manufactures have

ment on the other side. how
ever. American allies in Eu-
rope must expert to live, and
their big market is America.
A higher tariff on Swiss
watches would hurt the manu-
features there, and concern
over Americas regard for her
allies would spread through
Europe.
The ETC recommended the
tariff on Swiss watches be
raised-because of the COM
petitive damage to American
industry. And last week Pres
ident Eisenhower made UP his
mind. He sided with the
ETC, but put added empha-
sis on the defense argument.
It was not, the President
assured the world, a change in
basic administration policy.
Almost all requests for tariff
boosts bad been turned down,
he said. But watches were a
special case.
Small Price Roises
The new tariff would be as
much as SO per cent higher
than the old. It would boost
retail prices for cheap watches
by as little as so cents and
would raise the price for
medium-grade watches-l7-
jewel timepieces-by as much
as about So. Higher grade
watches would not be affected
by the new rules.
Reaction was as expected.
Manufacturers were. jubilant.
Importers were crestfallen.
The Swiss were angry. They
talked of reprisals. They had
given this country trade con-
cessions on American automo-
biles, tractors. machinery and
farm commodities in exchange
for our concessions on watches.
They threatened to withdraw
their concessions.
But many retailers here said
they thought the new tariffs
would have little affect on sale
Of Swiss watches. The new
prices still would be wen be-
low that of the domestic prod
uct, they said.
II the overall effect Is harm
full. however. The President
can review his decision at any
time. He told his press con-
ference last week he stood
ready TO change his mind--if
necessary.

there wasn't going to be amy

each was strong enough to kill

gress, under the leadership Of
Senators Homer z. Capehart

week revamped the Export
Import Bank and enlarged it
to IS billion institution.
The current change in the
bank accomplishes three
things:
. It reverses the alterations
made by the Eisenhower adj
ministration soon after it took
Office in 1853.
. It returns to the bank q

ii It makes the bank more

The Effect
The practical effect OF the

more exports of manufactures

the next years, financed by
Uncle Sam in whole or in part.
It will help sustain employ

President Ruises Duty
On Watches Because
Of Defense Needs

Matchmaking has been q
sick industry in this country
for several years. Domestic
manufacturers find it hard to-
compete with cheaper Swiss
watches.
The result Is that Swiss inn
ports account. for five out of
six watch sales in this country.
Consequently waite h makers
here ind fewer and fewer jobs
available.
Solution to the watch indus
try plight, according to Ameri-
can manufacturers, is to in
crease the tariff on Swiss
watches. But watch importers
and free trade" advocates say
the solution Is simply to let
domestic production compete
as best 1t can.
The American watchmakers
petitioned the Federal Tariff
Commission TO boost tariffs on
Swiss watches. The Reciprocal
Trade Agreements Act provides
for increases where 1t can be
demonstrated that foreign
competition substantially is
damaging an American indus
try.
Watchmakers made their
case for damage and then
added another argument: The
matchmaking skill Is necessary
for defense. Parts for fuses
and timing devices must be
made by persons skilled in
making small precision parts

industry fades, they argued.
