interest will decide how quickly
the network will be expanded Ex-
periences from other countries
show that television is an expen-
sive means of mass communica-
ton, and this obtains especially in
a country like Sweden, large parts
of which are sparsely populated,
with difficult topographic condi-
tons. In order TO reach 90 per
cent of the population, about fif-
ty stations will be required. and
it will cost around 100 million kro-
nor to build and connect them.
Many newspapers regret that the
government has set such a slow
pace, but add that the delay is not
only unfortunate. Despite the linn
tied resources, the experimental
sendings have been surprisingly
successful. The principle that tel
evision, like radio, must not be-
come an end in itself, but rather
be placed at the service of culture,
is as rule regarded as based on
sound reasoning, which is further
emphasized by the fact that COM
mercial stations are excluded from
the European television coopera-
ton.

Growing
Manpower Pool

OSLO. - During the next de-
cade, the supply of manpower on
the Norwegian labor market is
expected to increase by over 150,-
900, according to the Organize
ton for European Economic Co.
operation. The reason for the
growth is that children born dur
ing the war will gradually be
reaching the employment age.
A survey of population trends in
Western Europe, appearing in the
OEEC's latest annual report, re-
veals that Norwegians in the en-
playable age group Is through 81
increased by $4,000 from 1851 to
1856. In the coming Swear per-
iod, the increase is estimated at
about $4,000. and for the years
1861 to 1865 at another $4,000
men and women. In relation to
the total number of Norwegians
in these age groups, this means
that the annual percentage of
growth will be doubled. These de-
velopments should help to ease
the labor shortage.

Swedish Credit Curtis
Being frightened

STOCKHOLM The already
rigorous credit restrictions are be-
ing frightened. The Bank of Swe-
den and the commercial banks
have come to the conclusion that
the threat Of on initiation still ex-
lists, and at the request of the
Riksbank the commercial banks
will cut down their business loans
by at least five per cent as COM
pared with the level on July 81
last year. Savings banks and
other credit institutions will be
asked to take similar steps. The
actual reduction in business loans
is estimated at nearly 500 million
kronor. Loans for the construc-
ton of housing will not be affect
ed by the new Tightening.

First Drive
In Bank

Scandinavia S first drive-in bank
has been opened in one of Stock
holm's suburbs by Svenska Han
delsbanken, one of Sweden's lead
ing commercial banks. In view of
the rapidly increasing number of
motor cars in Sweden, it is quite
likely that this American type of
bank will have an important func-
ton to fill. AS far as is known,
there is only one more drive-in
bank in Europe, namely, in Bel
GUM.

No Commercials On Swedish w.
To Be Paid For By Licenses

STOCKHOLM-(ASNE) - The
idea of introducing commercial
television in Sweden has been re-
jected by Sven Anderson, Min
lister of Communications, in a bill
to the Riksdag. Television, he en-
phasizes, should like the radio,
serve society, culture, and popular
education. Program time should
not be leased for publicity pur-
poses. and the expenses will there
fore have to be betrayed by Ii
censes and, in the beginning, gov
eminent grants. An appropriation
of five million kronor is requested
for the next fiscal year. The cur
rent experimental broadcasts will
be increased, so that there will be
daily programs from Stockholm.
A nationwide television net is en-
visioned, and the annual produc-
ton costs are estimated al about
so million kronor when the system
is completed. The service will be
operated by the Swedish Broad
casting Company.
Television's start In Sweden will
be a modest one, and mostly re-
stricted to the Stockholm area,

nomic situation and the public's

some thirty leading daily papers
across the United States, will WIS.,
it Sweden this summer as Junior
Diplomats in the third annual in
ternational friendship program
sponsored by The American Week

saw England, Scotland, Wales and
Ireland.
The fifty youthful ENJOYS will
fly from New York on July Is, and
then for two weeks they will trav-
ell through the cities and country
sides of Sweden, visiting historical
sights and industrial plants, study
ing the culture of the country and
getting acquainted with the peo-
pie. An important part of the
trip, from the standpoint of the
travellers. will be visit to Lap
land, Land of the Midnight Sun"

In Stockholm, an evening will
probably be spent at the Skansen
folk park and open-air museum,
and one day may be set aside for
an excursion to the archipelago.
The preliminary itinerary also in
cludes the cities of Gothenburg
and Malmo. as well as the prov.
inces of Varmland and Smaland.
Greetings from civic leaders OF
the various communities in the
United States will be delivered to
Swedish officials and other repre-
sentatives. At the end of the two
weeks the group will again board
a kim Constellation and fly to
Amsterdam Tor a brief goodwill
visit.
The members of the group,
ranging from IL to Is years. viii
be selected from more than 200,-
600 boys who serve and deliver
the newspapers participating in
the program. Five superintend-
ents and an executive from The
American Weekly will also take
part in the trip.

this week but a shaky interna-

and left them lower on average,
The Associated Press average
of 60 stocks declined $3.50 to
$178.90.

trading since early August,
The Presidents victory was
sensed by Wall street on Mon
day when the market staged an
election eve rally. making its
only daily advance Of the week.
The most dramatic phase of
the week was the first hour on
Wednesday morning when the
high-speed ticker tape ran as
much as four minutes behind in
reporting transactions from the
floor. 1t was an exuberant cele-
bration. but also it was a period
of terrific profit-taking by pro-
fessional traders.
The balance Of the week was
on the downside. Jitters over the
Middle East situation dominated
the market.
The five most active issues on
the New York Stock Exchange
were: United States Steel, up "a

Expansion Is Vital
(4) 1t is no secret that the oil,
steel and transportation indus
tries have plans for huge ex-
pansion. Now expansion by these
industries is considered impera-
tive for our safety.
That means that these indus
tries will be gobbling up more
basic materials and metals and
their expansion programs will be
putting even more pressure on
prices.
(5) And it is also no secret that
wages are due to rise again in
1857. Increases are guaranteed
by many contracts signed this
year.
The whole price background
suggests demands for pay raises
will spread and 1857 will see an
other round of wage increases.
The military upheavals abroad
have set off economic chain re-

ally, the full impact of what has
happened won't be felt by in

Price Spiral Pushed

The price-wage spiral has
been given another stiff push by
the explosions abroad.
This is one vital bread-and-
butter meaning to all of us of
the crises in the Middle East and
Eastern Europe.
Consider these five basic
points and you1l realize how
much your financial life will
be influenced by the turmoils
overseas.
ID Well before the Middle
East crisis, steel companies
began laying the groundwork for
another price increase-but there
was some argument about the
timing and extent of the raises.
Now the steel industry has no
doubts about what's coming. The
fiat expectation is; steel prices
are going up.
Why? Because new demands
for steel are being piled on top
of already overwhelming de-
mands for the essential metal.
A big program to build large oil
tankers is on schedule and that'll
"eat" scarce types of steel.
Automobile makers and freight
car builders are stepping up
their demands and these will
swallow steel.
Oil Price Rise Due
~ A rise in the price of oil
has been forecast by authori-
ties-although there has been
much debate about when it
would happen.
Now the belief is that 1t could
come much sooner than any ex-
pert would have dared to predict
a few weeks ago.
Why? Because the Middle East
crisis has strengthened the forces
insisting that for our own pro-
lection, the United States must
develop more oil reserves within
our orbit. The cost of finding
and developing oil reserves in
our area has been climbing
steadily and 1t will climb more.
The outcome almost surely must
be higher price tag on oil for
fuel and gasoline for automo-
biles.
80 An increase in spending on
national defense has been in the
cards for months-although little
has been publicly said about it.
Now the turbulence makes it
a certainty that we'll maintain
and increase our spending on de-
Tense. And we'll be spending bill
