Interviews with consumers,

that the business recession

Two factors created the re-

Debt Effect Discounted
The Michigan economist
psychologist discounted the eff
feet Of debt on the consumer.
He said that earlier this year,
when the auto market was at
its nadir. the vast majority Of
car owners owed no money on
their machines and could easily
have bought new ones. They
decided. however. to postpone
buying. he added.
DR.. Katona said he did not
think slogans like "You Auto

one way or another on con-
Sumers.
THE consumer is too smart
to bite" he commented. "That
slogan was like prosperity is
just around the corner Those
who bought after the auto-buy-

have bought anyway. They just
shopped around for a better
deal"

DR.. Katona said the con-

Sleep Sickness

TOKYO. Sept. 2 (AP).-
An American Army expert TO-
day predicted the war against
deadly sleeping sickness now
raging in Korea and affecting
Japan and Formosa would soon
be successful.
Nearly 1000 cases of the dis
ease-encephalitis - have beer
reported, with $50 deaths. Nine
Americans have been stricken
one fatally.

quito carrier of encephalitil
curbed within the next two
weeks" said Col. Arthur H
Lahlum of Columbia, Tenn.
He is in charge Of special eff
forts to halt the epidemic
through insect control in South
Korea, hardest hit of all three
areas,
Col. Lahlum said Army planes
will begin weekly air spraying
Of American troop areas within
a few days. Daily ground
spraying and Jogging of United
States areas already has started
Smog generators Of the South
Korean Army are being used
for spraying insecticide in ma
jor South Korean cities. A
spokesman said an ample sup
ply Of medicine has been sent
to all provinces.
Sleeping sickness is believed
caused by a virus spread BY
mosquitoes. 1t attacks the brain
and is often fatal. Cooler
weather later this month is ex-
pected to reduce the number of
mosquitoes and help stop the
disease.

The Midwestern States Of

In 1856, Illinois and Missouri

four of the five G. o. P.-held

Forty-seven marginal con-
gresSional districts in is Mid
west and Western States are
beginning to look like the
promised land to major party
strategists battling for con-
troll Of the House.
In the Is States, stretching
from Ohio to the Pacific Coast
there are 26 House seats Re-
publicans won by a whisker in
1856 and 81 in which Demo-
Gratis nosed out their opponents
by less than 5 per cent of the
votes.
While neither party is 60
ing to ignore similar situations
in Eastern States like Pennsyl-
vania and New Jersey, the sus-
spicion is mounting in both
camps that the people who live
West Of the Ohio River are 60

When Congress went home
to campaign, Democrats held
a comfortable House margin Of

Democrats, 1877 Republican,
and six vacancies.

Mr.. Lands said that because

In relation to population,

Mr.. Lands said a better esti-

226 Protestant bodies which
reported in both 1856 and 1857.
