Manager of r. J. Buck & Co. ST. Croix
A leading research organization made the follow
ing predictions for 1864. While this column does not
necessarily agree, the information is passed on for what
it is worth. In the past, this organization has made con-
~servative predictions which have often been surpassed.
The Gross National Product is predicted to climb
to 1862 billion. This would be an increase of $50 over
1868. DispoSable personal income which increased $18
billion during 1868 is expected to increase more than
$24 billion in the coming year.
Earnings of industrial companies are expected to
show large increases and will normally be followed by
increased dividends of these companies.
Utility companies which have usually showed a
steady year-to-year growth and increase in revenues,
earnings, and dividends should continue through 1864
with the same upward trend.

West opened the ace of
spades and continued with the
deuce. East won the second
spade and returned the three
of hearts.
South won with the Jack Of
hearts, led a trump to dummy's
ace and returned the nine of
diamonds from dummy. East
stepped up with the king of
diamonds and led the 10 of
spades.
South followed suit with his
third spade, and West discarded
the deuce of clubs. East con-
tinued with another spade, but
South could not be overruffed.
Declarer drew trumps and ran
the rest of the tricks to make
the contract. s..-.
Wrong Reaction
West had the wrong reaction
when East made his strange
heart play at the second trick.
Instead of thinking that East
had gone crazy, West should
have said to himself: That's
a weird play. Why is my partner
leading a heart? He must have
a good reason, and I must work
it out so that I know what he
he has in mind"
West would need only about
one second to work out the
reason for the shift to hearts.
Having seen that East was try
ing for a ruff, West would ruff
the third round of spades to
return heart.
East would get his heart ruff,
and South would go down.
Please don't write in to say
that your partner really is crazy
and that if you tried to find a
reason for his strange plays
you'd go crazy too. Good de-

First Citizen

1t is encouraging that President
Johnson has found the time so early in
his busy schedule to pledge a deep and
continuing interest" in the problems of
the District. We are not, however, sur
priSed. Washington, as the President
noted, has been his home for more than
80 years. Now that he is the city'S
first citizen, there is every reason to
anticipate continuation of the strong
personal interest assumed by his
predecessor.
There are a number Of projects
begun by President Kennedy which
need to be carried to fruition. The
reclamation of Lafayette Square and
Pennsylvania Avenue, the enactment of
a permanent formula for determining
the annual Federal payment, a settle
ment Of the transportation mess, the
correction Of school and welfare def
ciencieS, are among the most important
Nor is it surprising that he has
asked Charles A. HorSky to remain in the
post of presidential adviser on National
Capital affairs.
There are a number of respects,
however, in which this relatively new
position has not PANIED out Satisfac-
torily. Since Mr.. HorSky has been on the
job, for example, the Commissioners
have been virtually insulated from d.
rect contact with the White House-and
there is no doubt that their authority
and effectiveness have been weakened
as a result. The Commissioners, as the
administrators of the District, are in
the best position to evaluate the needs
and preSSureS of the community. They
are the ones who have to brave the
firing line in Congress. Yet in matters
on which they disagree with Mr.. HorSky,
there is no easy way for them to be
heard within the administration.
Apart from this, Mr.. Horsky has
attempted at times to influence District
observation-disclosures recently in the case
OF the Washington Metropolitan Area
Transit Commission. Surely this is not
the sort Of activity-unleSS on direct
orders of the PreSident-which was en-
viSioned when the job was created.
On Capitol Hill, Mr.. HorSky'S role
is neither clearly defined nor under
stood. In some OF the offices of greatest
Importance to the city, the man from
the White House is not a particularly
popular visitor.
In the suburbs, there is a general
suspicion that suburban interests are
not adequately considered or protected
in the Federal policies for the Washing
ton area with which Mr.. Horsky is most
closely identified. Whether justified or
not, the suspicion remainS-and its
presence impairS the development of a
cohesive National Capital region.
We are not suggesting at this point
that the position of presidential adviser
should be aboliShed-or that Mr.. HorSky
should be replaced. But there is an
obvious need to reaSsesS and perhaps to
define more closely the limits of the Job.
There is no better time to do so than
the beginning Of new administration.

further notifications Of the
recent Asian and B influenza
strains. These were the first
important changes in in
fluenza virus patterns since
1857. The vaccineS in use last
year did not incorporate
these new strains. It is not
surprising, therefore, if-as
reported-the vaccine was
less effective than it had
been in former years in the
prevention of influenza.
The Surgeon General has
directed that antigens for
the modified Asian and B
strains be Incorporated in
the influenza vaccine this
year. This has been done.
Therefore this years vaccine
can again be expected to be
75-90% effective, as it has
been demonstrated to be in
former years.
Thus the Government re-
port does not indicate that
influenza vaccine is only
$50 effective every year. It
simply restateS, looking at
the 1925 experience in
archaeological terms, what
is automatic in virology-
that it really doesn't do
much good to vaccinate
against viruses that are not
causing most of the disease.
Unfortunately, it takes
time to isolate. identify and
establish the frequency with
which a new or mutant virus
appears. 1t takes time to con-
firm the clinical significance
of the virus and to decide
whether a change is needed
in the vaccine. And, after all
this, it takes time to make
the change in the vaccine.

facturers move swiftly to
