AUTOMATICALLY SPEAKING
Dash of FotherIy
Counsel Helps
/. BY PAT sALToNsTALL

the affable envoy who pre-
sented his credentials to the
late President Roosevelt July
80, 1913, claims he likes both
the parties and the people.
In recent years he's added a
new duty to his job. He plays
Santa Claus to each envoy
as he leaves his post here.
A large, elegantly simple
silver cigarette box follows
the departing diplomat home.
He is first sent off with a
personal call on him by the
Dean at his embassy.
The gift idea Is the BRAIN
child of Ambassador Sevilla
Sacasa, who initiated 1t in
1861.
The idea caught hold with
his colleagues, and 1t was de-
cided to make it retroactive
through 1860. This decision
to begin with the first year
of a new decade meant start
ing one and one-half years
behind, but the backlog Of
boxes has almost caught up
with the average of is am
basSadors per year who leave
Washington.
In another three months, q
departing envoy should re-
ceive his gift in person from
the Dean when he pays his
farewell call. There are boxes
here through the middle Of
SO, and they're ordered 10
at a time in advance from
the Mexico City silver house
which supplies them.
Length Is Factor
Once here, they are in
scribed at so much a letter
at a local store. The price
therefore varies according to
the length of the country's
and the ENJOYS name. The
Ill embassies are billed by
the year. A circular letter is
mailed out to detail his share
of the total for all gifts pres
ented during that year.
Total cost Of one box is
approximately $3.50, includ-
ing inscription and mailing
costs. Average cost per year
to one embassy is SIS. Like
all creditors, Ambassador
Sevilla Sacasa is left holding
the bill now and then. But
as the capitals top diplomat,
you can bet he doesn't do
much about it but dig down
in his own pocket. The large
majority OF embassies have
proven good credit risks,
however.
A file Of thank you letters
from the recipients includes
the following from former
Soviet Ambassador Men
shikov, now Foreign Minister
of the Russian Soviet Fedora
tive Socialist Republic. dated
April IL, 1868, and forwarded
by Ambassador Dobrynin:
Thank You
II thank you very much
for the silver cigarette
box. I am grateful to
you for your kind wishes and
and in my turn I wish you,
your wife and the Diplomatic
Corps success and happiness

NY Cracks Down
On Kosher Laws

NEW YORK (JTA)-The New
York State Agriculture Department
has launched a statewide crack
down on alleged violations of laws
governing kosher restaurants and
caterers. The move followed a
three-month investigation by a
Queens grand jury of criminal in
formation disclosed by District At
torney Frank d. O'Connor against
several establishments evading
kosher laws.
Under the statutes, each res
taurant or caterer holding a kosh-
er wedding, bar mitzvah or other
social gathering must be super
vised by a rabbi or his authorized
representative who is required to
be on hand while the function is
taking place. Violation of these
statutes is punishable by a prison
term of up to one year, a $500

$22.5O to $44.OO per ton.
The Virgin Islands Govern
ment informed Atlantic that
there would be no opposition
to the new tariff provided
canned 3 bottled goods ship
ping charges be reduced back
to the original rate.
The increased shipping
charges will only affect other
dry cargo items which the line
carries only in small quaint
ties.
On November %, Atlantic
filed a supplementary tariff
containing the reduced rate
on canned & bottled goods &
bottled goods will become eff
fective within the week.
In reaching this agreement
with Atlantic Lines, the Gov
eminent has prevented any
discernable increase in cargo
rates. Atlantic has been per-
suaded to act solely to stream
line the tariff deleting speci-
fic commodity rates for dry
cargo items infrequently car
ried IN small amounts. Last
year these sundry items repre-
sented only eight of the total
145 tons Of dry cargo brought
into the islands by Atlantic.
The tariff changes agreed
upon are designed to further
the Administrative Conven-
fence Of the Carrier only and
do not permit any increase in
the rates charged for those
dry cargo commodities which
Atlantic carries in any signi-
ficant amount.

Goods Sent U. S.
Up Is Per Cent

LONDON, Jan. 5 (AP).-
United States imports from
British Commonwealth nations
increased in the first half OF
1862 by about 25 per cent over
the same period the year before,
United States exports to the
commonwealth also showed a
recovery.
The figures were contained in
a memorandum issued by the
Commonwealth Economic Com
mittee.
The memorandum showed
that on average about 36 per
cent Of United States import
requirements in recent years
have been supplied from COM
monwealth countries.
Although the values Of i'm
ports into the United States
from the commonwealth in
creased by more than 5000 mil
lion in 1861, individual COM
monwealth countries we're af-
fected as the decline Of United
States imports from all sources
was chiefly in crude materials,
base metals and finished manu-
factureS.
Consequently, Hong Kong,
Malaga, Ceylon and especially
Britain, which was hard hit by
contraction of the imported
automobile market, sold less
than in 1860, the committee re-
ported.
About 35 per cent of United
States exports go to common
wealth countries and these
shipments represent just under
one-quarter of total common
wealth imports.
Value of exports from most
of the major commonwealth
countries rose during 1861 but
the gain was under 5 per cent
in most cases.

threaten the stability Of the
Swiss franc.
Total imports and exports
rose to an all-time high. The
trade deficit was the highest
ever, but this was partly COM
pensated by rising income from
the tourist trade, banking and
insurance.
Scandinavia: The Scandina-
Wan countries maintained their
high level of production in
1862, but a leveling off in the
rate Of growth of the national
product was becoming clearly
noticeable.
Major problems for Denmark,
Norway and Finland were defi-
cits in payments balance and
rising prices resulting from in
ternal inflationary pressures,
DOOM LOSING Otedm
Netherlands: 1t is generally
felt in The Netherlands that the
economic boom Of the past
years is losing steam. Govern
ment leaders, business men and
brokers are vigilant. Yet there
is no recession scare.
Hollands competitive posi-
ton was slightly weakened in
1862 because of wage increases,
shorter working hours, shortage
of skilled labor and the after
effects of the 1861 guilder re-
valuation.
Main concern of government
and business leaders is that
wage increases will exceed pro-
ductivity growth.
Belgium: The economy is de-
veloping in a favorable at
moSphere. Full employment is
almost achieved. Many work.
ing opportunities remain open
mainly in the building industry,
coal mines metals and textiles.
On the whole, industrial
Iactivity is slightly higher than
it was the previous year. Yet,
a slowing down of the expan-
lsion is noticeable in many
sectors.
Spain: Spain is pushing an
industrial awakening which in
time may transform this once
backward nation, economically,
into another France or Italy.
Greatest progress had been
in production for home con-
sumption. With it has come a
stepped up domestic income to
buy these products.

Years Corporate
Dividends Rise
WeIIin All Data

NEW YORK, Jan. 5 (APl.-
The year 1862 was a good one
for corporate dividends by just
about any measurement, says
Standard g. Poor's Corp.
The statistical research firm
said the number of extras, in
creases and assumptions all
rose, while the number of
dividends omitted both fell.
The biggest change from 1861
was in the number Of actions
emitting dividend paymen t,
There were 234 such decisions
in 1861 but only las in 1862.
The number Of extra dividend
declarations was 1851 against
1859 in 1861 and the number
of dividends increased rose to
l ,086 from 902. There were
1853 actions resuming suspended
dividends, against 146 the pre-
vious year.
The number Of dividends
reduced in 1862 was 166, against

employment benefits.
Union leaders have indicated
they will continue their push
for greater job security and
contract provisions designed to
spread out available work.
Figures supplied by the Unit
ed Steelworkers Union and the
American Iron and Steel Insti-
tute indicate that the industry
employed an average Of 100000
hourly workers in 1862, COM
pared with 415,000 in 1861.
The institute said wages for
the first nine months of the
year averaged 1894 an hour.

ture reflected favorably on
profits.
For example, Consolidation
Coal Co.. the Nations biggest
producer, earned $1.38 a share
in the first nine months. That
was IL cents more than in
the same period of 1861.
On the labor scene, peace
continued among the large pro-
ducers, but there was more
trouble among small operators,
primarily in Eastern Kentucky,
Eastern Tennessee and West
Virginia.
The small producers are un-
happy about paying the Accent
a ton union welfare royalty in
the face of declining prices and
spotty demand over a span of
several years.
Strike Is Voted
In late November, an esti-
mated 900 to 1000 miners
went on strike in West Vir-
ginia, trying to close mines un-
til their operators settled up
with the welfare payments.
There were scattered dynamite
blasts. Rifles cracked in wood
ed mountains.
Members of the United Mine
Workers Union haven't had a
pay increase in four years. They
average about $25 a day. There
hasn't been an industry-wide
strike since 1850.
The industry employed some
10000 men in 1862 compared
to about l31, 900 in 1861.
The output of hard coal con-
tinued on a downward trend.
However, there were hopes that
when the years final figure
was in, the decline wouldn't be
as severe as in recent years.
About II million tons of hard
coal was dug in 1861. There
appeared to be a chance the
1862 figure would be only three
per cent less. The hope was
based on colder weather than
usual and increased ship
ments to army bases in West
Germany.

Canadian production of auto

for the first time in the Ma
tons history. The 1862 record
compares with the previous
high, set in 1858, of 1000
