Cedurs of Lebanon
Guarded as Treasure

About 400 "Gedars Of Le-
banon" still exist, guarded as q
national treasure by the trad
ing country on the eastern
Mediterranean.
Famed since Biblical times
the cedars provided wood for
the Phoenician galleys. King
Solomon built his temple with
Lebanese cedar. Egyptian
pharaohS sought the timber fol-
solar boats to transport their
souls. Several remaining trees
are believed to be more than
1000 years old.

Question: A local radio
commercial selling combination
screens and storm windows uses
q phrase which I find irritating,
though I'm not quite sure why.
The announcer says: IF you
want more or less windows
(than provided for In the bar
gain offer). the price will be
adjusted accordingly" Now my
question is this: Just how can
you want "less" windows
M. L. w., Washington, d. c.
Answer: I'm sure I don't
know, either. A person can want
fewer" windows-but not "less''
windows. Properly used, less
refers only to quantity or
amount Of things that can be
measured. II you are referring
to things that are counted
rather than measured, you
should use fewer"
In a new series Of ads, a
tobacco company is gramati-
cally correct in claiming that
its cigarettes contain less"
nicotine, but 1t is wrong when
1t says that they contain ''less''
tars. The claim should be
fewer tars and less nicotine, A"
II the commercial is to receive
q passing grade in grammar.
Question: Here is a quote
from a popular magazine:
Trying to decide which Of the
two was the likeliest suspect,
threw the investigation into a
controversy which was to con-
tinue for the next several days. "
Please comment.-C. o. A., San

persons or things, the compare
tive rather than the superlative
form Of the adjective should be
used. The sentence should read |:
Trying to decide which Of the
two was the "likelier suspect"
The superlative ("likeliest"D
should be used only II three or
more persons or things are be-
ing compared.
What's more. that comma
after the word suspect" is

Plans for the most widespread
gold price increase campaign in
the history of that monetary
metal are now being rounded
out. A constant flow of propa-
ganda will come from all parts
of the world-directed at Wash
ington.
The cry for a higher price
than the present $35 per ounce
is usual every year Just prior to
the annual meetings of the
World Bank and the Interna-
tional Monetary Fund. The 1858
meetings are scheduled to be
held in october in New Delhi,
India.
South Africa and Canada
certainly would like a higher
price for the precious metal
they mine. The gold spectators
in London, Paris, Amsterdam.
Zurich and Hong Kong are
anxious for an increase. 1t
means big profits to them.
But the nation that will push
the propaganda hard for a gold
price increase will be Russia.
She would have more to gain
than anyone else-being a big
gold producer. 1t would give the
Russians increased monetary
prestige at the expense of the
United States-world's largest
taker of the yellow metal. Rus
STA is a big seller of gold.
The United States Congress
will not get itself caught on
the gold price increase hook. 1t
would be neutrality-suspicious.
money to buy the vast volume
Of gold that would be offered.
In other words, Congress will
not legislate a gold price in
crease.
World gold production last
year, not including Russian out
put. totaled Sl.040. 900. 900. In
the last eight years two and
one-half times as much as the
1857 output disappeared into
private boarding. The World
Bank says so officially.

month of June odd lot sales ex-

Activity in odd lots is be-
lieved to represent trading by
smaller investors. Round lots
consist of 100 shares. With a
few exceptions, any number of
shares under 100 is an odd lot.
During the three months

by 882 common stocks while
179 declined and 20 ended the
period unchanged.
Daily volume during the
period averaged 2.6 million
shares compared with 2.3 mill
lion in the second quarter last
year. First half volume totaled
297.8 million shares.
Because of the steady in
crease in the number of shares
listed, the turnover ratio (sales
