partment denies passports on
two grounds-one, that travel
by ordinary American tour
lists might affect foreign re-
lations and, two, that travel
by persons suspected of Com
munist sympathies might inn
pair national security.
Leaving out of considera-
ton the vital constitutional
issue involved, it is question
able whether, as a matter of
national policy, the freedom
of Americans ought to be linn
tied so drastically at the mere
discretion of a public official.
The power to conduct foreign
relations can hardly be held
to imply a power to control
all the acts of Americans
which may affect foreign re-

ings and 1t CRATES on my ears no
end. Is there any basis at all for
this pronunciation? Even the
station manager. accepted as a
rather erudite man, says free
FAY quite merrily every time he
reads this particular copy. He
also says "assessories." What
can be done about this? Thank
you very much-even If you only
console me.-Miss E. N.
ANSWER: I'm afraid It's not
solely the. chill in the air that
leads your local radio announcers
to say free-ZAY. You see. there
are two kinds of fabrics very
similarly named. "Frieze"-pro-
nounced FREES correctly
used to designate a heavy wool
cloth with an uncut, shaggy nap
on one side. 1t is generally used
as an overcoat material. The
cloth is believed to have origi-
mated in Friesland, Holland,
whence 1t got its name.
The upholstery fabric. how
ever. is correctly spelled "frise"
and. in its original French form,
had an acute accent on the final
"e"-thereby calling for the pro-
|nunciation free-ZAY. Frise,
which comes from the French
word "friser," to curl. is a fabric
with a thick pile made of uncut
loops or a combination of cut
and uncut loops.
So 1t appears that your station
manager can qualify as "erudite'
If he is-as seems likely-talk-
ing about frise rather than frieze
However. his accessories
have got to go. This is q wholly
Iinexcusable and very nearly IL
Iliterate pronunciation Of "acces-
sories." The only acceptable
pronunciation. Of course, is ak
SESS-uh-rees.

The Government took a look
at the economy yesterday and

including prices.
The August issue of the Com

to some declines.
On the bright side:
Personal income hit a record
annual rate of $345.5 billion in
July. 81 billion higher than
June and 50 billion. or s per
cent. higher than a year ago.
Gross NatiGnal Productive

Up IS billion from the previous
high in the first quarter.
Non farm employment in
July was little changed from
the high June level. and farm
employment rose about 800. 900
higher than the average for
the first quarter.
On the nc-so-bright side:
Rising costs took some Of the
luster of the increase in
