THE act of contributing to the delln-
auency of juvenile is indeed shamef vi
offense which properly places stigma
upon the perpetrator. Rightfuly, the wrath
of a community and the Indignation OF de-

Young people Against those who design to
bring ruin to children. we must continue
vigorously to enforce and even strengthen
existing laws.
Unfortunately in considering the cor
ruptors Of youth, the public too often
thinks only of criminals who lead young
sters into thievery, entice into immoral ac-
tivties, or peddle dope to children. In truth.
however, large segments Of the adult popu-
lation are also among the guilty Countless
adults escape the stigma. although by their
negligence, indifference. personal greed and

NO COMMENT
By JAMES W. DouTHAr

Washington, D. G.. July 1-One Of
the most encouraging aspects OF the
report BY the Nixon Authorization
Committee was its assertion that
tax reforms are needed to pro-
mote economic growth and lean
perhaps be realized soon
This was highly gratifying to in
dustry which has been contending
that tax rate reform is essential to
remove present obstacles to the ra-
tons maximum economic develop
ment.
For this purpose, it urges enact
ment Of a measure by Representa-
tives Herlong 1D-Fla) and Baker
R-Tenn which, m Q n other
things. would lower personal and
corporation income taxes to a maxi
mum Of Az per cent by a series Of
annual reductions spread over five
I years.
The Nixon Committee, technically
known as the Cabinet Committee on
4 Price ST a bility for Economic
/ Growth, made no specific legls-
lative recommendations b u t eX-
planned that studies are now under
way with a view to proposing
changes in our tax laws at the APP
propriate time.
AS to when the appropriate
time" may be. the Committee had
/ this to say:
If the line can be held on the
I Administration s budget, tax reve-
nues should more than meet current
expenditures. This will provide the
margin needed to provide for re-
1 duction Ii the debt and absorb any
temporary losses Of revenue caused
| BY shifting to rates which, BY i'm
proving Incentives, will enlarge the
tax base.
Administration supporters express
confidence that a balanced budget,
along with a surplus, viii be at
tanned during the fiscal year that
started last Tuesday. June 30.
II its report to President Eisen-
4 hover, the Nixon Committee as
4 serted that il the long run the
most effective antidote to initiation
\ is increased efficiency and produc-
/ tiYity Of the economy.
4 And tax reform it added Is I'M
\ portant ~to the efficiency and pro
\ ductiFitv III thu economy" and sus-
A tanned economic growth ''is neces-
\ sary for maintaining our increasing
standard Of living and our national
H security.
The Farmville herald. (Farmville, Va.) 1957-current, 1959-07-07

Thus. the vital importance Of tax
reform is brought out clearly by the
committee appointed by President
Eisenhower to devise ways Of
checking initiation and promoting
economic growth
Congressional consideration is re
garded as certain at some time in
the future. Tax reform advocates
hope that--in the national interest
there will be no delay.
States Rights Gain
Advocates of legislation to protect
state laws against federal encroach-
merit are Waging a determined
campaign to obtain Senate approval

How d. Averages Are Compiled
To provide for the numerous
splits, stock dividends. etc, though
the years. it is necessary to add
the quotations together and then
divide the total by an arbitrary di-
visor, which amounted to Alb on
the last day that Telephone stock
was quoted on its old basis. namely
at $3.50 a share. When this was re-
placed by the new Telephone stock,
it was necessary to use different
divisor. The change to Telephone S
new quotation around s84l, plus
four substitutions in the Industrial
list which were made at the same
time, brought the divisor down from
4 13 to 1864. This latter figure will
be used until there is another split
in Telephone Or in some other
stock in the list, or until another
substitution is made Then h e
divisor must be revised again.
Other stock averages are chang
ed more or less on the same prin-
ciple. The system may not be per-
feet. but it makes the Averages
very useful to those who under
stand them and follow them as a
fairly accurate conservative time
table. Another reason why these
Averages have heretofore been i'm
portant is because trustees have
been allowed by probate courts to
consider the stocks making up these
Averages as safe for the prudent
investor" to use. If one of these
should suffer in price. the trustees
would not be criticized for having
bought the stock. This fact, how
ever. has resulted in these stocks
being quoted abnormally high, due
to their demand for Pension Funds,
Mutual Funds. and other funds
operated by trustees. This could
mean that the time may come when
it will be wise for readers of this
column to avoid these so-called
"gilt-edge" stocks as business

to our poor eyesight and the fine

Instead of hunting the quotations
especially interested, we look at
the average stock change, noting
whether this is up or down. and
then conclude that our own special
stocks have acted likewise If the

preciable change from the previous

any change either.

rivers and bodies of water that have been names only on maps such as Kiliuda Bay, Old Harbor, Sitkalidak Island, Three Saints Bay, Alitak, the Trinity Island group, Karluk, Ugak and Larsen's Bay-each becomes more than a name.
 These villages become identified with people fishermen, wives, school teachers, children, and dogs. Don't forget the latter, for you see them in every little hamlet. The villages, too, are identified with the sea- The few or many fish caught in the summer determines the villages economic wellIbeing or plight the coming winter. N
 We talked to one fisherman at Old Harbor. He has nine children (Large families are not unusually. His summers catch, which was higher than the general average, netted him enough to pay some bills, lay in few supplies, and a few hundred over, but not enough to purchase some needed water pipe to put in home water sys- tenn, which he had planned.
 My first glimpse of Old Harbor was at 5:3O' in the morning. The ship had entered Sitkalidak Straits during the night and dropped anchor short distance from shore. Nestled below mountain resembl- ing our own WomanS, was Old Harbor. To the right and beyond were a group of jagged peaks, formidable and foreboding, with patches of last winters snow still remaining in sheltered pockets.
 On all sides were undulating hills. Facing Old Harbor was the island of Sitkalidak, it's rolling hillsides obscuring the ocean be- yond. As the round bright sun appeared over the hills of Sitkal- idak, it seemed to act as a giant Searchlight focused on Old Harbor. To the left as you looked was the cemetery with it's rows of double crosses. A little to the right was the ever familiar Russian Church. On the far right was the school house and in between, the dwell. ings of the approximately POO resi- dents.

 Let's take brief look backwards and see what has been accomplish ed by Kodiak Island Navy Wives Club and why we are doubly proud of this organization.
 One of the first acts of this newly organized club was to have a Christmas party for the children at the Kodiak Baptist Mission. Since then from time to time we have provided food for needy families. donated clothing to those in need, collected and boxed clothes and food for the Coast Guard Air Drop to Alaskan Vil- lages along the chain, and provided clothing and toys for the Boring Sea Patrol to be distributed to villages north of Kodiak.
 Each month the Club assists the Red Cross in meeting all MSTS Ship arrivals, to see that tranSpor- tation and accomodations are pro- vided for incoming enlisted fami- lies. A representative from the Club operates the Navy Relief Thrift Shop one afternoon week.
