Inc conversation ranged 10 Jne

around to the other subjects that
interest men in their middle 40s.
My friend then asked a question.
He wanted to know what thought
the general public was writing
about to Senators and Congress
men? My answer was civil rights.
After all this is the principal sub
ject Of argument at the Capitol
these days and the lunch-counter
sitdowns in the South have kept it
in the headlines.
But this, too, was wrong. Civil
rights was the No. 2 topic. The
No. 3 subject was the woeful state
Of American education.
But the No. / issue, 50 far as
those who write to their Congress
man Is concerned, was the Forand
Bill. Along with it were letters
on the high cost Of medical care
and particularly the high cost of
drugs. None Of the other subjects,
not even civil rights, approached
this subject in voter interest.
I checked this information and
there was scarcely a lawmalCer
who has not heard from his con-
stituents about the bill, or related
subjects. These were not, I might
add, form letters, or postcards

citizens who told in various ways

NOME GOSPEL HOME

OAKLAND Calf. = Little
Hickey Stinson, aged 10, has re-
ceived a letter with real good
news from the Alameda County
Superior Court. A dear elderly
neighbor of Rickey's who was a
cannery mechanic had recently
died and now came the news from
the court that this friend had left
$50 silver dollars for his little
boy friend.
We can imagine the joy and
happiness this thoughtful gift
brought to the boy, even though
it was a small amount compared
to the other wills. Yet, the Lord
has given a greater amount than
anyone could ever give, for He
has offered eternal life to all who
believe. In simple, childlike faith
anyone can revel and rejoice in
this gift, and even though many
may not understand and they may
consider it a trivial amount, yet
we not only have the gift but
also are so thankful for the
thoughtfulness and love of our
Great Giver. For the wages of
sin is death, but the gift of God
is eternal life through Jesus

done to increase them.
In 1859, foreign visitors spent
5000 million in the United States.
The government is trying to pro-
mote the "visit U.S.A" idea.
Finally, foreigners in 1859 in
vested $500 million in the United
States on a long-term basis. It's
questionable whether the U. S.
economy is growing fast enough
at present to warrant much of
an increase.
There you have the major items
which work to reduce the pay
ments deficit. There's room for
improvement all along the line
here - but you can't throw a
switch and expect dramatic re-
suits.
On the deficit side, the biggest
item in 1859 was the $18.8 billion
which American spent to import
civilian goods and services. One
way to reduce the deficit would
be to restrict import through
quotas or higher tariffs. How
ever, that would inspire retail
alton against U. S. exports. The
government has done nothing in
this area.
The next largest item last year
was $3.3 billion in government
loans and nonmilitary foreign aid.
Here there are at least three pos
sible courses of action:
/. Eliminate or reduce the aid
and loan programs.
2. Insist that those who receive
aid or loan dollars spend them in
the United States whenever pos
sible.
8. Urge other nations to bear
part of the aid burden.
President Eisenhower has de-
cided that the second and third
alternatives are necessary.
The next category is overseas
spending under military pro-
grams = a $3.1 billion item last
year.
In this area, the administra-
ton has ordered the gradual re-
turn of more than half the 1874 900
wives and children who accom-
pany us. servicemen to overseas
posts. Because these people spend
millions overseas, the action is
being taken despite it's effect on
morale.
Also, the government will try
to shift more military spending
to the United States and persuade
the Europeans to pay larger
share of European defense costs.
Two other deficit-reducing pos
sibilities have so far been by
passed. Nothing has been done
to reduce American private in
vestment abroad or OUTLAWS by
American tourists.

Why The US.
Must Protect
Its Gold Reserve
By FRANK CORMIER

WASHINGTON, R-For more
than a year, the Eisenhower ad-
ministration has been fussing
around the edges of the gold prob
lem. Now it is getting down to
brass lacks,
Why the sudden emphasis on
emergency action when Uncle
Sam still owns $18 billions of
gold = about half of the free
worlds total supply?
It's largely a matter of arith-
metic.
First of all, $11.5 billion of
Uncle Sans gold is tied up by
law. 1t can't leave the country
because it backs up the part of
the us. money supply.
That leaves sos billion of gold
to meet foreign demand-the de-
mand which the United States
must satisfy at all times if the
dollar is to remain "as good as
gold"
Since Oct. l, foreign nations
have been buying gold at an an
nual rate of more than S. billion.
Obviously, Uncle Sans gold
stockpile would run dry in a
little more than year if buying
on that scale continued.
To guard against such a devel-
opment, the Eisenhower admins
tration has involved controversial
new policies which have two pri-
mary detectives:
l. To dispel any foreign I'M
certainty about the dollar by
demonstrating that this country
will do whatever is necessary to
make sure the gold stockpile
doesn't run out.
2. To reduce the deficit in the
US. balance of payments. 1t is
this deficit-$3.8 billion last year
which gives foreigners the
money with which to buy Am
erican gold If there were no de-
ficit, there would be no gold
problem.
Critics say something must be
done to reduce, and eventually
eliminate, the payments deficit.
Its a question of how to approach
the task.
The deficit can be pared either
by spending fewer dollars abroad
or by collecting more dollars
from foreigners.
The best way to collect more
dollars is to sell more goods and
services in foreign trade. Ex-
ports in 1859 brought in $22.5 bill
lion. And the Administrations
first thought, year ago, was to
boost exports in 1860. Exports
have advanced sharply since then
but they still fall far short of
eliminating the deficit.
Another item on the plus side
in 1859 was the repayment of
81 billion in government loans by
other nations. These repayments
are made according to regular
schedules and not much can be
