NEW YORK, Jan. 8 (AP).-
Americans consumed a record
total of 24l million gallons
of distilled spirits in 1861 and
should go on to another rec
ord in 1862, a trade spokes-
man says.
Thomas j. Donovan. presi-
dent of Licensed Beverage
Industries, Inc, said the 1861
intake represented a three per
cent gain over the previous
high of 235 million gallons
achieved in 1860. The upward
trend should bring the 1862
total to 246 million gallons.
Mr.. Donovan noted that per
capita consumption remained
at 1.31 gallons during 1861.
about the level of the fifties
but considerable less than the
estimated 1.94 gallons per
capita in the Prohibition era.
Mr.. Donovan said the dis
titled spirits industry is be-
coming more attractive as a
stockholder investment, noting
that all distillers were expect
ing higher earnings as a result
of 1861 sales.

SO WHAT ELSE IS NEW?

At a recent meeting of the New York
Society of Security Analysts, Du Pont
officials were invited to appear and to bring
exhibits of what might be new and exciting
in chemical products and developments.
Back in Wilmington headquarters, peo-
pie began to collect materials suitable for
display. There were, of course, new fibers,
new fabrics, new films, new plastics; new
ways of doing old jobs and old ways of
doing new. The pile of exhibits meeting the
criteria of whats new" began to grow.
"Just rest your things on that table,"

programs.
One of the governments fea-
ture actions in the farm field
was to set up a pilot test pro-

low-income and jobless. Under
this plan, participants get

Improvement SpOtty

Improved economic condi-
tions were not general through
out agriculture. Several sections
the situation deteriorated be-
cause Of lower prices for poul-
try and eggs, beef cattle, po-
tatoes and some lesser crops.
Too. the northern great plains
suffered from a severe summer
drought.
Where the Eisenhower Ad-
ministration had taken the
stand that farm markets and
production unhampered by gov
ernment controls and regula-
ton offered an eventual solu-
tion to farm income problems,
the new administration took a
position that it was essential
that government embark upon
a farm commodity supply con-
troll program.
The Kennedy Administration
did not get from Congress all
the power and authority it
needed to carry out its policies.
AS a consequence, both it and
agriculture face a number of
problems that may prevent any
further upturn in farm earn
ingS in 1862.

Farm Income
Shows Slight
Pickup in 81
BY OVID MARTIN
Associated Press Farm Writer

The Nations agriculture saw
Its economic situation improved
somewhat in 1861 as the Fed
eral cover ment embarked
anew on stronger farm-aid pro-
grams.
Net income of farm opera
tors was estimated by the Ag-
riculture Department 81 billion
more than the SILT billion
earned in 1860.
Much of this increase reflect
ed policies and programs of the
Kennedy Administration which
sought to reverse those of the
Eisenhower Administration re-
ducing the Federal role in agri-
culture.
The new programs included
higher farm product price sup
ports and a plan under which
feed grain producers were paid
about $750,000,O00 to reduce
production of corn and sor-
ghum grains, crops available in
overSupply.

pipe the company is fabricating from its
new "Delrin" acetal resin to nonstick cook
ing utensils coated with "Tefon" fluoro-
carbon resin. New fibers and fiber uses
were available in profusion, included the
amazing "textryls", new types of nom
woven fabric made from Du Pont fibers on
paper-making machinery. There were nu-
merous examples of the use of "Lycra"
spandex-a fiber that stretches and snaps
back-for zephyr-light foundation gar
ments, swim suits, and other apparel.
With its faith firmly fixed in research,
the Du Pont Company added another
marker to its 16O-year record as a prolific
source of new materials, new ways, new
opportunities. All in all it was quite show.

Policy Change Seen

The previous administration
had operated on the theory that
a free-market system, if left
alone, would bring about an ad-
justment between production
and needs.
This year is expected to see
the present administration
press Congress for additional
authority to carry out it's poll
cies. This would be done in a
political atmosphere because
most lawmakers will be looking
ahead to the November Con-
greSsional elections.
AS has been the case for a
number Of years, agriculture -
as represented by its private Or
ganizations - continued to be
divided sharply over what Gov
ernment should do. The influ-
entail American Farm Bureau
Federation continued to fight
for less government in agri-
culture, but the National Farm
ers' Union and the National
Grange largely backed the pol
icies Of the Kennedy regime
This division is expected to
continue.
Total farm production in
1861 was about the same as the
record high set in 1860: Crop
volume was down under influ-
ence of crop control programs
but production of livestock and
livestock prices was up.
Prices Up Slightly
Farm product prices in 1861
averaged about per cent above
those of 1860, largely because
of higher government supports
