Expansion Without Initiation

We are living through the
rare experience of a major ex-
pansion in the economy with
out inflationary price rises.
No matter how rigid your
views on initiation, you can't
properly call an increase of only
, 7f10 of l per cent in the con-
sumer price index in almost a
full year "inflation"-and that's
the extent of the climb in this
index since January, 1861.
Economists in industry and
Government agree that a rise
in the consumer price index
averaging 11a per cent or less
annually is reasonable price
stability. BY this years end
the odds are the overall price
rise will be within the 1]7
per cent range.
The major advance in 1861
has been the relantless upswine
in the prices of services. From
September, 1860, through Sep.
tember, 1861, the cost of trans
portation jumped 80 per cent
of medical care, 81 per cent
of reading and recreation, o.
per cent.

Striking Contrasts

The movements in other
spheres present some striking
contrasts. Prices of industrial
goods at the wholesale level
have been drifting downward

ClSClcS. Eacn OF US Will be
consuming some IS pounds
this year as against CAS-
pounds Of pork.
It wasn't always this way,
however. Pork outSold beef
UP until the early 1950s,
then beef consumption leaped
ahead and has stayed there.
One reason given by the stat
isticians is that people tend
to buy more beef in good
times as their income rises.
In any event, the best beef
bargains for the week end
include round roastS, bone
less top or bottom; chuck
roasts and steaks, shoulder
roaSts, both boneless and
with bone in; rib roaSts and
rib steaks.
Still more beef specials are
Sirloin, round and porter
house steaks, rump roasts,
ground round and Sirloin tip.
Lamb items run to square
cut shoulder roast, breast Of
lamb, shankS, loin or rib
chops, and shoulder chops,
blade or round bone.
Both whole and cut-up
fryers are on the good buy
list and are being featured
along with separate breasts,
legs, neckS, wings, backs and
gibletS.
Whole smoked picnics,
sliced picnicS and spareribs
are the leading pork values.
Fish fanciers can choose
from among Chesapeake Bay
buck shad, fresh roe sets,
founder and founder fillets,
sea bass. Scallops, bass fillets
and deviled crabs.
| Produce Buys
Outstanding among the
vegetable buys are Western
carrots, pascal celery, broc-
coli, iceberg lettuce, tomatoes
in cello-packS, and Maine
ruSSet potatoes.
For o good vegetable dish
to serve with fish dinners,
cut tomatoes In half, dab
the halves with butter or
margarine, sprinkle with salt,
pepper and Parmesan cheese,
then broil. For special SAVIOR,
dust with o little oregano,
the herb that put pizza on
the map.
Although California aspar-
aguS Is arriving in quantity,
it's still costly. The peak OF
the California crop comes
about mid-April, after that
the larger portion goes to the
canning and freezing indus
tries. II you're looking for
a -calorie vegetable, it's
hard to beat asparagus. Each
spear averages about 4 cal
orieS. When you smother it
in butter or Hollandaise,
that's another matter.
Fresh vegetable salad and
cole Slaw mix in cello bags
are also on the recommended
list of vegetable buys.
Bargains in fruit this week
are on the lean side. The
best values are bananas,
wineSap apples and Florida
grapefruit. Strawberries are
getting more plentiful, the
quality better, but are still
fairly expensive in most
areas.
New Cookies
Three new cookies, plus an
old one with o new name,
have been added to the Bel
gian cooky line from Pepper
idge Farm.
Among the new packages
is one called Southport, q
luxury assortment Of cookies
decorated with chocolate,
coated with chocolate, or
filled with chocolate. Some
are shell-shaped. others are
dainty finger shapes, and
some are wafer thin.
The wafer-thin cookies are
also packaged separately in
bags under the name Or
leans" This cooky was
among the original aSsort-
ment and was formerly
known as Biarritz. But the
company felt this was o name
difficult to pronounce and
one that meant little to the
average consumer, hence the
change. The quality Of the
cooky, however, remains the
same.

adding with some pride that
"it is current"
He said that as of last June
80 there were 206 criminal cases
awaiting trial, which ZAP
preached the ideal of a current
calendar condition" with the
average lapse of time from
indictment to trial being only
about one month.
In the last year, Judge Pine
said, the number of civil cases
disposed of has increased by
more than $40 over the pre-
vious IL months, despite the
fact that there have been two
vacancies on the bench for
many months and several
judges i'll out of the 14-judge
complement allowed the court.
Next month Judge Pine will
take off a month-before the
fall term of the court begins
for a Mediterranean cruise that
will include stops at the Ma
deira Islands. Malta, Egypt,
Jordan and Israel, ending up
at the Russian Riviera on the

Air Drop Test

FORT BRAGG, N. c.. Aug.
9 (AP).-Heavy cargo planes
thundered regularly into the
Darlington Is. CO. Airport to-
day in a gigantic supply opera
ton of Joint Army-Air Force
Exercise Swift Strike.
A majority of the cargo and
fighter support aircraft were
manned by air reservists and
air National Guardsmen. many
of whom already have been
alerted for possible recall for
active duty in the face of the
tense Berlin situation.
That, plus close observation
of the quick-striking abilities
of the Strategic Army Corps,
made the exercise doubly i'm
portant.
The job of the Air Force was
to furnish air cover and bring
supplies to the 82d Airborne

Mcguire Will Relieve
Pine as Chief Judge
BY PHIL THOMAS
atar staff writer

District Court will get a new
boss next month when Chief
Judge David A. Pine steps aside
to turn over the job to Judge
Matthew F. Mcguire.
The change of command
coming at the end of two years
of Judge Pines administration
is automatic under a 1858
Federal law requiring that the
chief Judge of individual Fed
eral courts below the Supreme
Court level must be the most
senior judge in point of service
under 10 years of age. Judge
Pine, who will be 10 on Sep
tember %, will step down as
chief judge at the end of busi-
ness on September 81.
Judge Pine looks back on his
service as chief judge with the
satisfaction of having run a
"taut ship" in his efforts to dis
pense justice as speedily and
fairly as possible.
Judge Mcclure, now vaca-
tioning at Cape Cod and ex-
pecting to return to Washing
ton shortly after Labor Day,
looks forward to efforts "to fol-
low in the footsteps of the good
chief Judge before me-"
Judge Mcclure, now 81 years
old, is a 1921 graduate of Holy
Cross College with a bachelor
of arts degree and a 1926 grad
uate Of the Boston University
School of Law.
He was called to Washington
for three months" in 1884 as
a special assistant to the At
torney General to help formu-
late new criminal law for
presentation by the New Deal
administration to Congress.
But he never got back to
Boston, where he had been in
the private practice Of law for
nine years. When he was ap-
pointed by President Franklin
D. Roosevelt to the District
Court in July, 194l, he was a
deputy Attorney General.
AS q juriSt, Judge Mcclure
has gained the reputation OF
being able to make quick de-
cisions and never at a loss in
delivering a witty remark both
in and out of the courtroom.
In 1945, he was presented the
Navy's Distinguished Civilian
Service Medal for his work as
chairman of a committee of
legal experts which drew up
changes in Navy procedure.
Judge Pine feels that a
multiple-judge court such as
District Court should be organ
lied, supervised and controlled
as any other large enterprise
because we're administering a
gigantic structure of judicial
proceedings involving numerous
agencies Of the court and a
large number of employees
(nearly 250).
The retiring chief judge
who looks forward to acting
strictly as a trial iudge-be-
lieveS that speedy trials and
certainty Of punishment are
probably at the top of the list
Of crime deterrents."

Meyer MGsor high style and

been doing business in the
Washington area for more
than a quarter-century. The
company operates two large
stores with a combined selling
space Of 100, 900 square feet in
downtown Washington and
Silver Spring-as well as an
additional huge showroom at
their warehouse on Rhode
Island Ave. just across the
District line.
Those who are looking for
honest furniture values would
do we'll to be aware of selling

or a discontinued factory close
out" MAJOR continued. For
example, proper h an dling
and delivery of first quail
ity furniture is Of utmost i'm
portance to the buyers sat-
isfaction. That's why we
maintain a complete furniture
workshop in our warehouse
with a staff of expert cabinet
makers, refiniSherS and up
holsterers. Every purchase
must undergo a rigid inSpec-
tion by these men before the
delivery is made. Prior to de-
livery, every Major Master
piece is covered or wrapped
for protection against road
dust, damage and weather.
Without such honest service.
so-called price reductions
are usually meaningless to the
prudent customer.
since the opening OF MAJOR
Masterpieces in 1887, I have
personally demanded top
grade service - before AND
after the sale-for our pa
trons," Major emphasized.
In addition to his finicky ap-
proach to service, MAJOR
stressed that his stores sales
policy is not geared only to
the well-to-do. Although
you'll find our furniture in
WaShington'S grandest resi-
dences," he pridefully adds.
For example, Major Master
pieces caters to the buyer-on-
a-budget by means of an IN
usual deferred payment plan
featuring a very low M in-
