The United States Many Is
being stretched just about to

commitments. Complaining
the situation Is the fact that
approximately So per cent OF
It's ships are either ouer-Gge
or approaching It, These and
many other naval matters
are discussed here By Admiral
George W. Anderson, Chief
of Naval Operations, In an

q. Does the Navy maintain
a plot along the lines Of 10th
Fleet in World War II? doth
Fleet was an intelligence OPP
Grafton which tracked German
ships and submarines. 1t had
no ships of its own.)
A. We maintain in our higher
headquarters In Washington,
and in the major fleets, plots
of all essential information
that we need instantly to
switch into full-scale anti-sub-
marine warfare. We have 1t in
being; obviously If we got into
a war, it would have to be
expanded.
The submarine is not the
only threat. The threat includes
mines, motor torpedo boats
such as have been placed in
key areas of the world-Cuba.
Indonesia - aircraft Of the
kind which recently overflow
our carriers.
In the latter case, my con-
Germ is not with their ability
to damage the carrier because
we can handle these aircraft
from the carrier. My concern
is rather to the merchant ship
ping in the world because we
have a responsibility to pro-
tect It from attack by subma-
rines, from the air and from
surface raiders.
Q. What do you envision as
the Nays role in countering
the so-called wars Of liberia
tion?"
"A. We have included in our
shipbuilding program som e
small craft which we could cal

can satisfy q very useful role
in coastal patrol around coun-
tries which may be threatened,
a role which can be satisfied
by these smaller, less expensive

The LooPhoIe They Plug Moy Be Your Own

Perhaps it is the very certainty of
death and taxes that make them both
repugnant to most people, but repug-
nant they certainly are.
Nobody likes to pay taxes and
whenever there is talk of tax cut,
everyone looks up hopefully. And
when there is talk of tax reform,
everyone figures, Gee, that might
mean tax cut for me-
But right now when there's a heap
OF talk at the national level about tax
reforms, perhaps we would do well
to think about the matter a bit.
And we believe these words from
Senator Norris Cotton of New Hamp-
shire are Signfcant:
The Presidents messages keep
pouring in. They come so fast there
isn't yet time for real ANALYSIS. Be-
SIDES, some recommendations are be-
ing modified before the ink is dry.
tClearly some of the eager beavers
downtown have been shooting from
the hlp.) However. even at first
glimpse the proposals are quite re-
vealing
Consider. for instance. the tax re-
forms of President Kennedy and
Treasury's Dillon. Tax reform they
tell us blandly, means plugging up
the lo0pholeS. That sounds good. I'M

A Gooney Bill

Sometimes we Just don't understand
the men the people send to the Legis-
lature to make laws.
And this surprises us a little bit,
because, in the past, we've worked
among them so much. With the eX-
ceptiOn of an odd-ball here and there
and a ruthlessly ambitious political
soul now and then, we've found most
of them men of reason and reasoning.
But a bill introduced in the South
Carolina Legislature last week begins
to make us wonder.
A year ago the Legislature passed
law saying no store could sell milk
below cost.
The commercial dairies loved this
and persuaded dairy farmers that it
meant money in their pockets. too.
After all, people must have milk, and
If they have to pay SIC half-gallon
they'll do so.
But this year Il group of stores
purchased a dairy and began selling
milk at 39c a half-gallon and that is
when the ship hit the sand.
The bill introduced last week not
only would forbid selling milk below
cost but would ban loss leaders on
all retail products.
Now loss leaders, Ladies, are
those Bargains you love so well. Those
are the item that stores sell below
cost in an effort to entice you through
their doors.
And this bill would prohibit them.
Further, it would also prohibit
mere hantS from OFFERING for sala =
combination of goods as an induce
ment to purchase one or more items.
For instance, the bill would not
allow store to advertise giving away
fiVe-pound bag of sugar with each

high school. Some cities, such
as Union City, N. j.. and
Medford, Mass, have intro
duced special teacher pro-
grams to improve reading
instruction.
Reading ability is one of
the foundation stones of a
Chicago program designed to
help potential dropouts and
reclaim those already in that
category. Known as the Great
Cities School Improvement
Program, it is one of 10 such
projects financed by the Ford
Foundation in U. S. cities.
The Chicago experiment is a
good example of the origin
ality being shown by each of
them.
Part One is devoted to
holding the would-be drop
out in school. II involves
pupils Ia years or older who
are still in elementary school
and almost certain to drop
out. Glasses are held at the
Stephen A. Douglas School.
Mail Order" Learning
New subject matter and
new ways of teaching have
been introduced. Two unuS-
ual textbooks" for exam
pie, have been added to the
usual list: the newspaper and
the mail order catalog. "Thc
newspaper" says Mrs. Helen
1Sbitz. assistant principal in
charge of the program. "haS

university And because it is
up-to-the-minute record OF

versty in print" AS used at

five-dollar purchase.
The bill, we are told, has a host
of co-authors, headed by Rep, Daniel
Paul Folk ii of Newberry.
And Rep. Folk is quoted as saying
that he feels the public has been
hoodwinked" in the past by induce
ments to buy. He claims that amost
all merchants raise the price of other
products in order to make up for the
loss on the big advertised product
that gets the shopper into the store.
Frankly, working as closely with
merchants and their advertising as
we do. we think Rep. Folk is talking
through his hat. We don't believe he
knows beans about merchants or
about advertising.
And we are beginning to doubt
that he knows much about politics,
because we have hunch that once
the ladies in his county really under
stand what he's trying to do, they'll
show him where the bar sat in the
buckwheat.
AS we say, we do work closely with
merchants and their advertising and
we do not agree that the people are
being hoodwinked" or that our mer-
chants raise the price of other pro-

on the big advertised products. We
