Go into any restaurant which
isn't absolutely off limits for
the small fry on a typical Sum-
day and notice how many fam
lily tables include young teen
ayers. Look around the stores
and see how jammed the ap-
parel departments are with
children at the awkward ages.
Peek into the food baskets of
supermarket oppers and
count how many items obvious
ly are for the young crowd
The simple reason is that the
infants of the World War II
baby boom have entered or are
entering the teens,
We also are into the years
when many parents are feeling
an unanticipated and growing
pocketbook pinch, for the SIM
pie reason that the teen years
are the most expensive. And
this, 1 submit, is among the
least understood and least pub
licized reasons for the relative
sag in buying of big ticket items
by average customers.
In other words, the family
with teen-agerS to feed, clothe
educate, entertain must switch
its spending patterns and cut
down on many purchases the
adults may want-unless the
family's income is high.
Influence Important
The father and mother may
not consider what they are do
ing as a significant influence
on the markets for housing
furniture, appliances, etc., but
when they are multiplied by
millions the influence is un-
questionable.
Just think of how bright the
setup is for the vast majority
of American consumers today
We are being offered the big
gest variety and quantity OF
goods in memory. The quality
of goods is improving. Prices
are stable, and some are de-
clining.
In this setup, you'd think
most consumers would be buy
ing their heads off instead of
spending with caution and in

SAC PAULO, Brazil. Nov. Is
(AP).-A citywide transporta-
ton strike and unrest among
the officers corps Of this states
security force put Sac Paulo
on edge yesterday.
The walkout came a week
after the outbreak Of a ma

port strike which the Brazilian
government blamed on foreign
Communists.
Police arrested 400 bus
picketS here. Bus tranSporta-
ton was starting up again on
a small but gradually increas-
ing scale, companies said.
Because yesterday was a ma
tional holiday. the transporta-

that any such agreement II signed

ahead, even there.
Without actually conceding de-
feat, Taylor said, there are two
strikes on me-"
Civil rights was the big issue
which the two men debated and
the vote would indicate that the
strong civil rights plank which
the Democratic party adopted in
Chicago, will not be a handicap to
them in the forthcoming presi-
Dental campaign in November.

Senator And Wife Grateful"

haired wife, Nancy, were grateful
for his tremendous vote"
1T is even more encouraging

of American civilization"
Kefauver swept across the state
from eastern Tennessee with a
lead so decisive it surprised many
of his followers.
Taylor had been critical of the
civil rights plank in the Demo-
cratic national platform and APP
plauded the Tennessee delegation
for signing the Southern minority
report. Kefauver said only that he
thought the plank went a little
too far.
Charges And Counter Charges
Taylor accused his opponent OF
failing to represent Tennessee
properly in the Senate and prom
ised to align himself with the
Southern bloc of lawmakers in
Washington.
Taylor charged Kefauver was an
ultralibera who favored big
brother" government. Kefauver
said Americas future requires bold
methods.
The 67-year-old senator counted
on his staunchest support from
eastern Tennessee, where he was
reared and now lives. His 49-year.
old jackson opponent pinned his
hopes on western Tennessee.
