Page 4 Tuesday, May 19, 1959 What Happens To Town. | When A Family Leaves + + All segments of society are interde- ' pendent, Each and everyone lives off : the purchasing power of some other, : and each citizen provides the purchas- ! ing power for some other, For that rea- son it is perfectly apparent that when the population of a community ine creases and more people are employed, the whole community benefits, : The U.S. Chamber of Commerce has « + produced figures that show that bring- " ing a new industry that employs 100 Y men increases wealth far beyond just + the salaries of those 100. *.v..An added payroll of 100 workers means: 260 more people; 112 more households; 51 more school children; $590,000 more personal income per year; $270,000 more bank deposits; 107 more passenger cars; 174 more workers employed, four more retai' stores; $360,000 more retail sales each year. Those are rather graphic figures. But it has been left to. Vern Matthews of Quincy, Washington, to tell how even a single family in town affects others. Matthews has been publisher of the Quincey, Wash,, Post-Register. But now th» family has sold' the paper and is moving away. Before he moved Mat- thews figured just who would lose when his family of six moved out. While his expenditures may not be those of the average family, they are instructive. He wrote: "We're one family. Yet, according to our records . . . "pr, C., J. Harbaugh will be losing about $75 a year... "Red, the barber, will miss our an- nual $60 , . . "Martin and Morris will $300 insurance account , . . "Quincy Flower and Gift will be out about $100 , . . "Call's Drugs will be short more than $500 . . . "Local serviegestations will lose in vicinity of $470 , . . "The schools will lose in the amount of about $1,800 in daily attendance lose our "Medical doctors will miss our an- nual contribution of about $500 . . . "Dr. M. F. Slusher will have to gain several customers to account for our $150 annual dental bill , . . "Darigold loses $360 . . . "Bass' Men's and Boy's Wear about $600, or more , . . "Thriftway and Sigman's will lose, annually, about $.,800 . .. "All finance drives will suffer about $300 per year , .. "We doubt if you can name one sin- gle retail business in Quincy that won't directly or indirectly, suffer from los- ing just one family. "If there is moral here, use it on the next new family that moves in. Be friendly. Continue to make this the best place in the worlc to live, and realize that every other community in the Uni- ted States is a potential comvetitor for your residents, . . and their dollars." 3 Power Over Big City A rather frightening study of what $mes Hoffa, powerful boss of the teamsters' union, could do to the con- tinent's biggest city if he so desired has been made by Life magazine, If he wanted to, Hoffa could paralyze New York City, To accomplish it, all the teamsters and their allies would need to do would be to go on strike. If all the teamsters struck at once, the bridges and tunnels leading into «New York would be cleared of freight * ¢raffie. Everything which reached ' the '+ - pity by railroad or boat would pile up in receiving areas with no vehicles to pick it up. New York, which literally survives on heavy daily doses of freight, would feel the pinch within hours after a strike call, If the choke-off came dur~ ing the winter months, the two million gallons of fuel needed each day to heat Manhattan's buildings would be cut to a trickle. Supplie: of food would soon dwindle to nothing; most of the daily 15 million pounds of perishable fruits and vegetables would be stopped, as would five and a half million pounds of meat and 800,000 quarts of milk. If all 150,000 teamster members in the greater New York area were to stop work, there would be no sanitation pickups, no pa rolls delivered by ar- mored-truck drivers, not even a hearse would move. If Hoffa could summon other allied unions, the tie-up would be even more crippling, Longshoremen would refuse to unload any incoming ships able to dock without the help of striking tugboat crews. The magazine claims that one of Hoffa's fondest dreams involves the formation of a 50-union Conference on Transportation Unity, an alliance of workers of all unions having anyhing to do with transportation in the United States. He has shelved this plan for the present, Life says, because "the tremen- dous crippling power possible in such a sweeping confederation brought appalled reactions from Congress and the AFL- Clo." Hoffa has, however, continued to work to bring unions together in '"co- ordinated co-operation" pacts--which means that his Teamsters will help un- jons which assist them in return, He recently concluded such a pact with various maritime unions.

It also urges that persons accus- ed of contempt should have the right to speak in their own defense and should be allowed to appeal. The report also attacked the provis- jon by which companies distributing newspapers and magazines may be hail- ed into court for contempt as well as those responsible for the publication. It urged that it should be a fair defense for a distributor to argue that he did not know the journal he was handling contained matter in contempt of court. This section of the law landed a Brit- ish distributor in court not long ago for a story appearing in an Americar news magazine about a British trial. The panel defended the principle that there should be no "trial by news- papers" but urged that the law of con- tempt should not be invoked in such a way as to discourage public discussion on matters of public interest. Three leading newspapers, the inde- pendent Times, the conservative Tele- graph, and the liberal News Chronicle, printer editorials supporting many of the panel's recommendations and urg- ing that Parliament take action neces sary to amend the law. The report said the Times, "could be a new charter for a free press."

Rath- er more than a third would favor the Liberals, This figure brings the Tories, for the first time, be- low the 54 per cent popular vote standing with which they won an overwhelming victory at the polls in March of last year, It is, also, a drop of 10 per cent from the ail4ime high point Prog.

At that time, in publishing a 60 per cent standing for the Conservatives, the Gallup Poll reported that never before in its seventeen years' work in Canada had this figure been reached by any Party. Today's balance of 50 per cent for Goy- ernment forces as such, and 36 per cent for the Party in Opposi- tion comes closer to the normal balance of favor shown by Ca- nadians over many years.

John Wintermeyer says the election is not going to a 'tea party." Yet Premier Frost's campaign stresses practically nothing else --12 '"'receptions" as against one old-time "meeting" in a week. And from his approach to them it would seem he would prefer to carry on in the genteel climate of chit-chat and tea cups rather than the rough and tumble of the platform. So Mr, problem. He doesn't want a tea party. But unless he can seduce Mr. Frost away from them he may have to settle for one anyway. OTHERS FIGHT Of course if the Liberal leader wants to settle for a fight with the P.C.'s second string he can have any kind of party he wants. The Messrs. Maloney, Mac- Aulay, Wardrope and others will fight him gloves off and with brass knuckles. While their boss handles the prestige and sweetness end they are ready and willing--and able-- Wintermeyer has a to go to work cleaning up in the alleys. 5 Mr. Maloney particularly has shown he bars no holds. He has one line he stresses that you can either admire or despise depending on your outlook. He says that Mr.Wintermeyer is a "friend" of his and that he admires him but that he doesn't belong in politics. And he pre- dicts that a year from now he won't be leading the party. This, of course, is tying to take advantage of the still-existing di- vision of the Liberals regarding the new leader. Mr, Wintermeyer is a new type of politician and many in his party aren't used to him yet. It can be expected that the gov. ernment speaker will try to take full advantage of this. COSTLY PROGRAM? One government argument the Grits should not have trouble in knocking down is that the Liberal program is prohibitively expen- sive. Mr. Wintermeyer vehemently denies this, declaring that ex- cept for the education planks it will cost practically nothing. Essentially it is taking advant- age of the public credit for the benefit of the individual, he says. FOR BETTER HEALTH Pointers to Help You Cope With Cockroaches HERMAN N. BUNDESEN, M.D. As warmer weather approach- es, each of you homemakers had better strengthen your defenses against cockroaches. Now I realize that none of you would like to find one of these little ereatures in your kitchen or pantry. You would be embarrass- ed to think that it could happen in your home.
