news conference Then Blough had some words of ad-visju lur trie rresiaeni "ii we can reauce expenses at U S Steel then I'm sure there is room for reduction in the United States government" he said "If the government can trim its costs then I would favor certain changes in the tax laws pushing more of the national product into investment and more production plant and equipment" Blough usually speaks for the entire 'steel industry and much of the business community What he was saying was that the new depreciation changes allowing faster write-off- s of investment for new plant and equipment was not enough to stimulate the growth needed Nor will the tax credit allowed in the tax revision bill passed by the House and now before the Senate What is needed job-makin- g tS Golf Beween US crnicf

ceptance of public responsibility almost been priestly in char- acter He has asked for no re- turn for no thanks for no recognition for services done Not all of Herbert Hoover's efforts have been successful but they have all been motivated by selfless recognition that each man is his brother's servant It is not surprising that tomorrow reaching the great age of 83 Herbert Hoover should be an hon- ored and beloved man Even those who bore him enmity for the de- pression of 1929 have long come to recognize that in Herbert Hoover as President we had not a politician who twisted and turned with the tides of popularity but one who was guided by the foundation principles of our civilization by the natural law and by the Constitution of the United States Herbert Hoover has never been a raaicai or a reactionary in the century he would have been regarded as a moderate liberal of the order of John Stuart Mill: in the 20th Century he would be called a conservative ry tr From London comes the report of a novel new form of compensation A committee of conservative lawyers and legislators noting that crimes of violence rose 12 per cent a year in the last two years recommended that the victims be paid for their discomfiture or pecuniary losses by the government with a ceiling on sums paid to any one victim Where possible the money would be recovered from the criminal The committee estimates the cost at about a million pounds a year or $28 million That would mean a fairly low ceiling on payments for each victim but it would assuage his feelings and perhaps compensate him for some of his suffering A precedent established in Britain would lead to agitation for similar plan here It would proclaim society's responsibility not only to prevent and punish crime but to reduce its effect on the victim Mmmloin n n A nor ront Mure aramauc vveisner wonaereu it the use of so many scientists for military purposes was retarding national growth r— citing as a danger signal

approving the transaction First the sale would have made scarcely a dent in the mountain of tungsten which the president had ordered reduced Second the light-bul- b manufacturers had no alternative but to buy the tungsten overseas if they couldn't get it from the stockpile This amounted to a whopping expenditure of $10 million— an outflow of dollars which Kennedy desperately wants to curb But
