NEWSPAPERMEN have a word for ex-
places while the home fires 90 INTENDED.
They call it Afghanstanism. The word can
be usefully applied - perhaps even more
usefully. since it is coming to be generally
realized that concern with troubles abroad
is vital to our own interests - to other
problems. To the problems of juvenile de-
lnquency, for example
Most of the stories about the crimes and
misdeeds Of teen-agers spring from the big
cities. The troubles in such urban centers
as New York Chicago and Los Angeles hit
the front page with shocking frequency
Published studies Of juvenile crime usually
focus on the big city gangs
Good citizens are properly appalled, at
what they read about gang violence. 1t is a
crime in the big cities to such an extent that
the home situation is obscured That is a
kind Of Afghanistanism
The most recent statistics disclose that
the largest juvenile crime increase has been
in cities Of $4,000 and under The figures
indicate than anyones home town can be
stricken by this blight on society 1t is good
to be concerned about Juvenile law-break-
ing in the big cities and to try to under
stand and think Of ways to improve mat
tiers. 1t is even better to apply such concern
and such efforts to understand and correct

DRESS UP WINDOWS

Got high old-fashioned bank of
window you want to disguise?
Don't rip out that wall-there' an
easier way to get maximum use
out Of the wall space. A storage
chest built along the wall under
the windows and reaching from sill
down to floor does the trick. Stor-
age chest may be constructed with
flush, hinged doors for concealed
storage. or open shelving for book.
magazine, and record storage.

II would be an understatement
TO say that almost every week we
are now getting more favorable
business news. Scarcely day
passes without at least one en-
couraging item Some examples:

dex OF production for June rose
two percentage points. and the
figure for May was revised up a
point. which means that 1t also was
up two percentage points. This In
dex is In physical terms price
changes do not affect it--and uses
l947-49 as equal to 100. The cur
rent figure is 1870, which compares
with l26 two months ago, and the
progression hi & h Of JAS last
August The most amazing fact is
that every durable goods sector has
now moved up. In the nondurable
category the total IS up. but de-
tails for many individual industries
are not yet available II should be
borne in mind however, that 1t Is
the durable. not the nondurable. in
dustries which have been the main
recession worry
O. On the basis OF new and more
complete data the Department OF
Commerce has just revised the
| figures for Gross National Product
which Is the total Of all goods and
services produced In the nation. The
revision lifts the total for the third
quarter OF last year. which was the
high, to $446 billion. This is rise
OF S. billion from an earlier esti-
mate, For the first quarter of 1858
| the figure also was revised upward
from s422 to s426 billion. Prelimi-
nary guessing on the second quar-
| ter Is that 1t will at least match
the first quarter. and may actually
rise a little.
3. Personal income in June was
81 billion higher than In May on a
seasonally adjusted basis. The
figure was 1852 billion. a small per
cent below the progression high.

little reason to doubt that we NAV
have over million housing starts
this year, and the total may be
100000 above that figure. Total

been stated that 5000 cases of eggs per

industries to be located in Farmville 1t

Question: Is 1t possible TO
use two different tweeds at
the same time? Would 1t be
wrong to wear more than one
print in an outflt--such as a
lowered scarf with a print
skirt?
Answer; Never combine two
different tweeds in one out
fit. The results would be too
busy and confusing. The
same is true Of print or fig-
ured materials. A print skirt
with a matching scarf is fine.
Or with such q printed skirt
select one dominant color
from 1t and match with q
blouse or sweater. Avoid
wearing prints with heavy
tweeds. Solid colors give
better contrast and harmony.

Answer: Yes. a sash or
pleated cummerbund could
very well be used with such a
dress. Satin or taffeta would
be a smart combination with
the velvet. II you can wear
1t. the sash ends could be long
enough to coincide with the
