Weeks, Jr. EDITOR'S LETTER TO SENATOR BENNETT "Just a quick note to compliment you on your forthright stand in opposing the nomination of Robert C. Weaver as federal housing' admnistrator in the recent re-cent confirmation vote. During the past several years we have received information pertaining to various organizations which Mr. Weaver has been affiliated with, and even though some or all the organizations were later placed on the attorney general's subversive list after Mr. Weaver had separated himself from such organizations, neverthless casts grave doubts about Mr. Weaver's loyaitv. We sincerely hope, however, that the new housing administrator has been converted 100 per cent to Americanism and will ably represent the same." ' Kindly yours, Editor Woman'sL; View V,fe i of The V' Washington Scene One of the problems faced by every social group in the Nation's Capital is the question of protocol, and the change of Admin'stration always brings about a minor upheaval in this field. Whi'e statesmen wrestle with we'ghtier matters, their wives often have equally dif ficult problems in the social field. For example, one group, the Internat!onal Neighbors Club, organized to promote friendlier relations between the wives of foreign ambassadors and wives of those prominent in government, govern-ment, finds itself in a real dilemma. dil-emma. What should be done about members whose husbands hus-bands are retiring from active service, but who are remaining remain-ing In Washington? Diplomats come and go, but Potomac Fever Fe-ver grips the most stalwart government officials and makes him loathe to go back home. The organization's by-laws provided for four equal groups Diplomatic, Official, Congressional, Con-gressional, and Residential, the "Residential" group being set up to include members living In the area who did not fit into the other categories. Since these ladies are no longer a part of "official" Washington, and since it was necessary that their places be declared vacant to make room for the new official of-ficial wives who were here, the club was faced with a delicate de-licate problem. It hated to ask a large number of its old members mem-bers to withdraw from the club, but it could not expand Its "Residential" membership under Its by-laws. So what to do? ' You guessed itthe by-laws were revised and the "Reslden- wai wasningion- group now outnumbers the other three. Someone has suggested that they should use this same at proach in Congress keepin the old members when new ones are elected. I am sure this would meet with the ap proval of every member ot Congress, but I suspect the voters might take a dim view of the idea. Waslunjtou This Should Improve -Relation. In his first four weeks in office, President Kennedy may have learned more how t.n handle the Russian iteas than did his predecessors since Woodrow Wilson' in all their years on the job. And we earnestly earn-estly hope he has! The President's Initial de ferential approach to the ogre of the Kremlin - which went 3o far a3 to seal 'the lips of the imprisoned RB 47 fliers after their release and return to the rest of their American freedoms and to muzzle the high brass of the armed ser vices - appears to have been regarded in the same light as all previous US efforts at friendlier relations, as weak ness and appeasement. With the savage world-wide Communist-inspired jrioting that followed the death of Lumumba, and the Russian at tack on Dag Hammarskjold; its demand that he be fired as UN Secretary General "as an accomplice ac-complice and organizer of the murder of leading statesmen of the Congo", and that UN troops be withdrawn from Africa within 30 days; a crisis in the cold war was suddenly at hand. In his carefully prepared announcement to his press conference the following day, President Kennedy expressed fear of "unilateral intervention in the Internal affairs of the Republic of the Congo" and stated that: "The United States has supported and will continue con-tinue to support the United Nations presence in the Congo Only by the presence of the United Nations in the Congo Con-go can peace be kept in Africa. "I would conceive it to be the duty of the United States and indeed all members of the United Nations," the state ment concluded, "to defend the charter of the United Nations by opposing any attempt by any government to intervene unilaterally in the Congo." This, without referring to the USSR by name, would seem to be a flat-footed declara tion of US policy respecting both the UN and the Congo. It should be understood in the Kremlin, and we believe it will be. Its implications, we hope, will extend far beyond the job security of Secretary General Hammarskjold and the continuation of UN forces in the Congo so long as they may be needed. First, and most important, it should stiffen some spines at home, its echoes should bring reassurance to Berlin and German hopes of unification and serve notice on Macmillan in London and Mau in Peiping that we are not about to welcome Red China Into any congress of civilized nations. We think that Mr. Kennedy Is saying at last that it is not "inevitable" that we bow to communism anywhere - any more than It is inevitable that we commit national suicide. New Plan For Expansion of Utah Industry Studied by Legislators Representative Cliff Mem-mott, Mem-mott, (D-Roosevelt) publisher of the Uintah Basin Standard, has introduced a bill - in the House of Representatives which calls for enabling legislation leg-islation to authorize towns, cities and counties of Utah to issue bonds or other obligations obliga-tions by which they can induce in-duce small Industries to come into the respective areas. THE BILL THAT IS fashioned fash-ioned after a plan now In operation op-eration in the state of Miss-ssippi Miss-ssippi and is listed as H B 197 s being co-sponsored by Rep. George Collard, (R-Provo), Mrs. Alg:e Ballif, (D-Provo), C ark Newel, (D-Nephi), and Melvin Foxley, (R-Tremon- ion). X study has been made of :he Mississippi plan by a prominent prom-inent Provo business man, D. Spencer Grow, President of the Utah Savings and Loan Association, Assoc-iation, who has made several trips to the southern state to gather data concerning the plan. The state of Mississippi has employed a financing program pro-gram similar to the one being considered by Utah legislators for the past 18 years under its "Balance agriculture with industry in-dustry plan". According to Rep. Memmott the enabling act, if passed, will make it legal for munioipal- 'ities and counties to issue bonds to build or acquire buildings and property that will be leased to firms to conduct con-duct small industries in the area. The act will also provide for the creation of a board to be known as the Utah Indust rial Development Board and will call for the approplation of funds for operation of the board. MR. GROW IN HIS STUDY has found that several other states have made possible to have 100 per cent Industry financing. They are Tennessee, Arkansas, Rhode Island, Ver mont and Maine. In 1959 alone Mississippi landed 96 new plants ranging up 475 employ ees and most of them in smal ler communities by using the financing plan. Repayment of the bonds, which, under the Mississippi plan will be made by the in dustrial firm who will pay rent sufficient to amortize the bonds in 20 years and pay a fair share of the taxes. This will make for a stronger tax base and a new payroll to spark the community's econo my. THE PROPOSED BOARD whose duties would be to administer ad-minister the act and help induce in-duce firms to Utah would be made up of the gove'nor, president pre-sident of the senate, speaker of the house, two members from the senate and two from the house to be appointed by the president and speaker and the chairman of the industrial commission. The govenor will apoint seventeen members at large representing the geographic geo-graphic areas of the state. Members f the board will serve ser-ve for four years without pay. The bill also call for appointment appoint-ment of an executive director who would receive a salary. ;M Ii n u t l a ; ; .,';.

The man said it would outlast four cotton rib bons and would not stretch and I said, "Why didn't you tell me this long ago?" He didn't know and I didn know either. Always on the day I'm to write a column or some thing else important IMPORT-J ANT that is, my typewriter ribbon ties itself in bow-knots and pushes out of the spool and hangs a'.l over the place in festoons. This typewriter is one of the major frustrations of a life full of frustrations. 1 have to pile into the Green Darnit and go down town and get it fixed. Don't ask me why I don't take out the ribbon and fix it myself. JUST DON'T ASK ME, DEARIE! So, now, I have a $2.40 cent nylon ribbon rib-bon on ye typewriter and we shall see what we shall see. Don't know when I've been as depressed as these last, say, ten days. There is the world situation - which of course is always with us and this is not calculated to cheer, but grows steadily worse with us, the United States, still clinging desperately to the fantasy that Russia, also wants peace. Why do we do it? I wonder what would happen if we said to Russia, alright, here's Africa. Let us get the whites out and you can have it." I feel, somehow, some-how, that that would tear it. Russians are, after all, whites, have a dead child in and in the long pull the Afri-ens Afri-ens are anti-white. And they are savages, not many of them far from the jungle and they owe no man allegiance, only the tribe and tribal chief and they are legion. I doubt if Russia could cope. Africa makes a fine hot-bed for stirring up an Russia knows it. If we pulled out - the Con go, I mean, and let her stir, it seems to me she would soon be hoist on her own long handled hand-led spoon: Well, we'll see, of course. Then, to further depress me was the recovery of the Tew boy's body in the boat harbor. Of course I'm very glad the sad hunt has come to an end, but it isn't a happy thing, even so. Then, there's - the beating to death in Salt Lake City of that six year old' child who couldn't remember the months of the year. Thi3 I cannot bear to think of. It Haunts me. I was at a meeting last night and voiced my horror. "Why didn't some one call police?" I wanted to know "This cruelty cruel-ty probably want on for a long time. Someone must have know-or suspected." The people at the meeting ilaugjhed at me. "The police don't pay any ' attention to such calls," one of them said. Another explained, when I protested that one . could get a policeman in a hurry if an animal was being mistreated but not when a child was be ing mistreated.

These people are closer to such situations than I am, in a professional way, and should know what they are talking about. I can hardly , beleive it but if this be true we are monsters mon-sters and better do something to change our ways.' There must be some way to prevent a child's being beaten to death. THERE MUST BE. This is more than enough without the fifteen year old boy who lured a neighbor child to a violent death in California a day or so ago. As I said, I don't know when I've been so depressed.
