The question, when is a book

after District Judge Burnita s.
Matthews ordered a fuil-scale
hearing on the subject.
The Post Once Department
had held that College Laughs
and French Cartoons and
CutiesR cartoon joke books
published periodically by the
Candar Publishing Co. of New
York are books rather than
periodicals.
AS such, postal authorities
ruled. they are subject to the
higher-rate fourth-class mail
ing privileges rather than the
lower-rate cond-ciass.
Candar, however, asserted
that the Post once decision
was arbitrary. It said the pub
fishing company is being dis
criminate6 against. that other
publications similar to Candars
are allowed the second-ciass
rate. Both sides sought SUM
mary judgment.

Mr.. Castro's attire for the

hall played the Cuban and
American national anthems.
Mr.. Castro stood between

Starting in 1914. France has
had quite a number of fiscal
reforms" All of them, in one

Respectable Currency
In fact, they wIH be. The
lnew tranc is the hrainchild of
Gen. de Gaulle and was or.
dered BY presidential decree
more than a year ago. The idea
Is quite simple: BY knocking
two zeroes of new bills and
coins the value of the franc
automatically increased 100
times In other words, start
ing today the franc is worth
about 81 cents instead Of $lO021.
The effect Of IS years Of in
fiation has been wiped out at
one stroke and France has a
respectable" currency again. :
Since salaries, bank accounts
and prices all get the same
treatment, nothing really is
changed. The old bills and
coins win stay In circulation
for a long time to come. Of
ficials tirelessly repeat that the
purpose Of the changeover is
entirely psycholo ological-to bring
French money in line with the
Swiss franc and the German
mark. to encourage saving, to

people who really seem pleased
about Gen. de Gaulle's reform
are the cartoonistS. The heavy

Problem Of Adjustment
For most others the problem
of adjustment Is real enough,
particularly in a country where
even a modest salary has made
a person a millionaire" The
worker who has been earning
10000 francs a week appar-
emily will not happily settle
for 100. And even the assur-
ance that his new money buys
the same number Of groceries
does not make him enjoy his
new respectability the more.
To counterfeit such misgiv-
ings, the government has re-
sorted to about every gimmick

dream up. In addition to daily
