 Loophole on Ban Of Imports from Fidel CastrO's Cuba

WASHINGTON R = The gov ernment has plugged loophole ir it's ban on imports from Eide Castro's Cuba and spurned a note in which his regime denied having a hand in smuggling narcotics into the United States.
 A Treasury Department order, effective at 12:01 am. EST Sat- urday, blocks shipments from any country of products containing ele- ments of Cuban origin.
 Under Cuban embargo pro- claimed by President Kennedy Feb. 3, it was possible to ship products into the United States from foreign countries other than Cuba even though they contained ingredients from Cuba.
 The Treasury order used powers under the trading with the enemy under the Trading With the Enemy Act, which applies to Communist primarily at tobacco products rnanu- factured elsewhere but contains Cuban tobacco.
 The rejected note, in which the Cuban government denied a part in narcotics smuggling, was turned back by the State Department be- cause of it's abusive language.
 State Department press officer Lincoln White commented that it was interesting that Cuba would deny complicity in narcotics traffic when it had not been accused.
 He suggested denial in such cir cun1stances reflected guilty con- science.
 Five Cubans recently arrested in Miami for bringing in narcotics, he said, have admitted they got their drugs in Havana. US. officials said at least some of the narcotics had been sent to Cuba from Com munist China.

{ 'ABOMINABLE SNOWMAN
 CLAIMED 4 HOAX
 BY SIR EDMUND HILLARY

RICHMOND, Va. R = The con- l queror of Mt Everest had a word or two to say here Saturday about the Yeti, or Abominable Snowman.
 "It's hoax, a myth" said Sir Edmund Hillary. Sir Edmund had his say about the Yeti. a legendary half-rnan, half-beast, while in Richmond for a speech.
 He said climbing Everest, the worlds highest mountain, was certainly my most exciting ex- perience."
 When allowance is made for the effects of altitude, he added, other mountains present equally as chal- lenging technical problems as did his route up the famed mountain in 1853.
 This fall he will return to Nepal, do some more climbing on 21.- 500-foot Himalayan peak, and work on his pet project establishing schools Tn that area to combat the influences from nearby Communist China.
 Sir Edmund said his expeditions in the Himalayas have shown how different sea-leve1 man is from his mountain cousins.
 "We ran some rather intensive scientific tests at 19,000 feet" he said, land found that those of as raised at sea level had lost 50 per cent of our effective working ability.
 "But our guides, raised in the mountains, had lost only 5 per cent. A matter of heredity, quite likely"

ARGENTINE TEEN-AGERS
 SPLATTER PRINCE PHILIP OF ENGLAND WITH EGGS

BUENOS AIRES, Argentina R-- Ultra-nationalist teen-agers splat- tered the light grey suit of Prince Philip of England with two eggs and several tomatoes Saturday as he naareti the closing stages of an otherwise serene South American good win tour.
 What a disgrace" exclaimed one policeman, caught by surprise by the barrage.
 Philip, also caught by surprise, said nothing that was recorded. But he seemed unperturbed outwardly.
 Police immediately ringed the husband of Queen Elizabeth II and arrested five youths. They were identified as teen-age members of an ultra-nationalist youth club called Tacaura which has been causing trouble recently. Their names were not given out.
 Sir George Middleton, the British Ambassador, and Philips air force aide quickly brushed the eggs off the princes back and he went on into the Argentine-British Cultural Institute for a royal in- spection.
 Amid crowd of several hun dred he calmly went on with his greetings.
 Later he changed from his light grey suit to 8 tan one and went to the swank Jockey Club, where he lunched with Argentina's top ST businessmen.
 A British Embassy spokesman said the prince asked that the arr rested youths be released but told mot to do 1t again because the duke does not have an unlimited number of suits.''

 He picked it up and examined 1t. Was 1t firecracker? There was quick way to find out. He stuck the glowing tip of his cigarette to it.
 Hart was admitted to hospital Friday, after surgeons repaired the damage the firecracker did to the ring finger of his right hand.

Over the past couple of years
there has been an immense hard
ening Of protecti0nist sentiment
throughout the nation. Labor UNI
ions as group have usual
ly been so-called free traders.
But now an appreciate number
of them have swung over to the
protectionist side. And the South
which. additionally has favored
low tariffs, also has moved to a
marked extent to the side of
more adequate protection. Bust
ness management is. as it al
ways has been. split on an in
dustry by industry basis. and no
one can be certain what the
balance of opinion in this group
is at any given time.
The United States Chamber of
Commerce. for examrle, is in
favor Of lower tariffs. but does
not approve giving the President
wide open powers to reduce rates
The National Association of Man.
ufacturers has no tariff policy as
such. and of course has no posi-
ton on renewal of the Reciprocal
trade Agreements Act. But
every member of the NAM. you
may be sure, has his own opin-
icn. 1t requires a vote of two
thirds in the Board of the NAM
to establish a policy position. and
may years ago it was found
that is is not possible to get this
majority on any matter having
10 do with tariffs.
We submit the following, there.
fore, as solely our personal
views.
The Farmville herald. (Farmville, Va.) 1957-current, 1962-01-12

First, today many industries
in this country are being hurt
by foreign competition. and
there is no way they can meet
this lower cost of production.
Second. a sudden and drastic
reduction of the tariff. in many
cases, would cause unempl0y-
ment and bankruptcies. Such de-
velopments would not be in the
interest of the nation.
Third, in the long run it is
desirable to have lower tariffs,
and as many items as pos
sible on the free list. But this
situation must be- approached
gradually.
Fourth, tariffs never should be
used to protect inefficient pro-
ducers. They should be fixed
at level which keeps the most
efficient producer under pressure
to reduce his cost of production.
Finally. tariffs must be fixed
on an item by item basis. This
is the basis of competition, and
is the only means possible for
making sure that we are not
protecting the inefficient. Ill 81

It is now clear that one of the
early ard hard political wrangles
of the next session of the Con-
gress will be in connection with
tariffs. It will come over re-
newal of the Reciprocal Trade
Agreements Act. This statute was
first enacted in the early days
of President Roosevelt and it
has been renewed time after
time. The act expires next June
30 and there is no intention Of
simply permitting it to 'expire.
No one, either in or out of
the Administration. yet knows
just what President Kennedy is
going to ask for in the way of ad-
ditional powers on tariff negotia-
ton. Gossip has been running
high and wild. Some say he will
ask for authority to reduce tar
ifs by up to fifth per cent. It
also is said that he wants to
negotiate by broad classes of
commodities rather than item by
item. And it is maintained that
the present act must be over
hauled to eliminate peril point"
protection, and so forth.
The Conore convened on
January 10. Following that must
come three preside tial mes,
sages: The State of the Union,
Budget, and the Economic Re.
port. It would ap-ear, therefore,
that il will not be possible for
the message on the Reciprocal
Trade Agreements Act to be
reaoy before about the first Of
February. and perhaps a week
or so later.

FARM PRICE
OUTLOOK

This Is the way prospects
for Virginia farm prices looked
TO the Virginia Department Of
Agriculture o. Friday. The DE-
partment offers it to Mariners
with the warning that no one
can predict prices and be right
all the time.I
broa1ers
There is basic strength In
broiler prices although there
may be temporary set-backs In
the next week or 50. as con-
sumers react to retail prices
nearly double what they were
two months ago.
With Richmond retail prices
at 80 to IS cents a. pound last
week. ready-to-cook movement
was sluggish. DelMarva farm
prices eased off a little and
Georgia and North Carolina
farm prices failed to continue
their gains.
But with national broiler sup
plies holding about the same
through January and into Feb
ruary farm prices should re-
cover quickly from any drops,
and move on to a little above
present levels. January farm
prices in Virginia last year ran
II to Is cents.
Rapid r very of broiler
prices in the past several weeks
was a clear case of supply and
demand. There was some lag
because it is always hard to get
prices up out of the well, but
basically. prices moved back up
as national supplies were cut
down to the size of demand.
Applying the same rule, broil-
err supplies in February will run
about three per cent above a
year earlier. when prices were
l7Ka to 1872 cents.
/ Last week broiler prices in
Virginia were 1872 to II. North
Carolina was quoting base
price of IS cents with contract
sales running one-fourth to one
hall cent higher. Georgia had
the same base price with con-
tract sales as much as a cent
! higher. DelMarVa had eased
back to Is to 1919.
Hogs
After a rise of a dollar or
so since early December hog
prices look as if they will pause
about where they are for a
while and then ease on up in
February.
Peeking ahead, hog prices
this year would seem to be
headed for a more normal price
pattern as far as seasonal fluc-
tuations are concerned.
Basic strength was indicated
