Doesn't Like
Federal Aid

Americans recently
have been quite concern
ed about President Ken
nedy's proposed programs
for Federal aid for
schools, distressed areas,
and health-inSurance.
Almost everyone will admit
that serious problems in these
areas do exist and that some
thing should be done to inn
prove our present situation
so that we will maintain a
strong, prosperous, and free
nation.
MANY PEOPLE WHO are
interested in the solution to
these problems are, however,
opposed to Federal Aid" for
several basic reasons.
In the first place, these
programs assume that the
average person is too ignor-
ant, complacent, or uninter-
ested to provide solutions to
these problems for himself or
through representa- ives of
his local government.
Proponents of these pro-
grams believe that Federal
managers must be appointed
to establish and direct the
programs, tax the people for
the necessary funds, and re-
distribute the unused portion
of this money to the needy
people whom they hope to
help.
THIS SYSTEM is financial
ly wastefuI because a large
portion of the money col
lected will be used to estab-
lish Government Bureaus and
pay Federal employees when
this money could very well
be used for those in need.
As more of these programs
are adopted, more Federal
power and control will be
placed in the hands of rela-
lively few people in the
Government and less will be
placed upon the individual.
If AMERICANS AWAKEN
one fine morning and find
out that these few people
are actually opposed to our
free enterprise system, then
our freedom will be lost and
the Federal Government can
impose any type of program
it desires whether it be good
or evil.
l am hopeful that Ameri
cans will not be fooled by
these aid" programs and
will rely on their own initia.
tive and their local commun.
tiles to solve these problems
Our great Nation, with it:
high standard Of living, wa
not built on Federal Aid
programs, but has grown anG
prospered by the efforts anC
sacrifices of each individual
dedicated to improve him
self, hts community, and hi,
Nation!

Three Drown On Spiridon Lake

The bodies of three men drowned in Spiridon Lake Monday have been recovered, the Coast Guard Air Detachment announced.
 George Carte, one of party of four thrown into the water when their boat capsized, managed to swim ashore. He then hiked about eight miles to camp, located on the south end of the lake, where word was radioed in to Kodiak Airways. He was a member of a five-man US. Geological survey crew doing work on the lake.
 While Carte was being taken back to Kodiak, the camp cook hiked back to the spot, but found no trace of the men or the boat. The boat, 12 feet in length, was of plastic construction, and was of special design, with watertight sec tions bolted together.
 The three men believed drowned were Richard Rumph, of Sacra- mento, Calif., Bob Scott and John Savini, the latter two from Tacoma, Washington.
 Search planes from Kodiak Air ways, Coast Guard Air Detachment flew over the area, but found no trace of the men or boat. A. John- son, official in charge of the crew, who was near Anchorage at the time, flew here the next day. Search was hampered that day due to fog and rain.
 Wednesday morning, he and a party flew over via Kodiak Air ways, but still found no trace of the missing men.
 A group of Navy divers were taken over to the lake on Wednes- day. They camped two nights.
 The father of John Savini accom- panied the divers and was present at the time the bodies were recov- cred.

The most striking difference
between the 1960-6l recession

the apparel be full-faShioned.
This is a term for a more ex-
pensive process that makes
knitwear fit Snugly with less
bulk.
The Belgians, Mr.. Madison
explained, prefer the cut-and-
sew method. It's cheaper, but
if Belgian factories want to
penetrate the American mar
ket, they'll have to expand
the estimated 5 per cent they
now devote to full-faShioned
work, he declared.
The delegation found Belgian
prices somewhat high in many
items. In a chat with industry
officials, Mr.. Madison was
surprised to find that one
grade Of labor averaged only
80 cents an hour versus $2.45
an hour in America for COM
parable work. He concluded
that short production runs
were pushing the retail price
in Belgium unnecessarily high.
Reaction to FranknesS
How did the Belgians take
all the plain talk about their
work?
Remarkably WE'LL" said the
Garfinckel's official. The Bel
gians are industrious. hard
working people with plenty OF
drive. The very fact that they
invited us indicates that.
And don't forget they've
already succeeded in several
ways. We found some excellent
stemware in factories near the
Waterloo battlefield that we
could use in Garfinckels. And
Belgian linens, made at BrugeS,
are one of their finest exports.
We have no criticism of them
Practically every American de-
partment store carries them.
Will Belgium succeed in its
trade drive?
They have the artisans and
the skill" said Mr.. Madison
ITS just a matter of gearing
their designs to our markets. "

Generally speaking, the Bel

said Mr.. Madison, was not of
a character that would have
acceptance here now. They have
a lot to learn"
Here are some of the Spe-
cities they told the Belgians:
. Your mems shoes are moth

have pointed toes and two-tone
feathers. They won't sell in the
States.
. Belgian ceramics are. too
ornate, Louis XIV stuff. The
American public wants elegant

example. is well ahead of Bel

praise for them.
