at a high defense level. The
Sputniks proved that"
On the basis OF the new
level of the index, a frame
house which cost $27.500 to
build during August and Sep
TENDER could have been built
in October for s27.400-a drop
of 500.
How land costs varied, in the
meantime. is another question.
If there we're an index to show
they had risen, the total cost of
producing a house for sa e
might have remained the same,
or even increased. depending on
the percentage of gain in land
value.
The Boeckh index doesn't
take into consideration fluctua-
ton in the value of land. Such
values presumably have been
continuing to rise.
Many Prices Unchanged
Many building materials
prices have remained at the
same level in recent months,
though some have risen as a
result of a number of inf1u-
ences. including the July steel
price increase.
One building materials dealer
said today large producers were
holding their prices firm.
Look at their earnings re-
ports and you'll see they're
down from last year due to
somewhat lower level of sales, y
he said.
They can't reduce prices on
top of that and make a profit,
unless the whole economy is
going to readjust to production
for a lower level of need.
All signs point the other
way, in my opinion, he contin-
ued. Il just don't think mate
rails prices are going to be

with this, there has been a par
allel tendency in the Middle
West to view Asian nations with
a friendlier eye. and it looks
as if Israel has benefited from
this way of thinking.
But the key factor pinned
down by our survey is to be
found in the attitudes of urban
Catholics. In rural areas the re-
ligion you belong to has little
effect on your attitude toward
Israel. But in our biggest cities
Catholics and Protestants are
sharply split in their feelings.
Only 20 per cent of big city
Protestants disapprove of Is
rael. but twice that percentage
of Catholics from cities over a
million are critical of her. Re-
ligious differences are having
less and less impact on national
events.

This same feeling was appar-

tended to focus the blame for
the SueZ incident on Egypt and

larger context of recent Middle

seeing the Suez fighting as an
