President Eisenhower asked the Tariff Commission to investigate wool imports and the House Ways and Means Committee approved a bill to pro-- ; tect the jobs of our miners. . WOOLLY THINKING While the previous administration was scattering funds throughout the world, officials turned their backs on the effect of falling wool prices on Utahs sheep industry. It was a case of international wool gathering and the result was that a vital lead-zin- c local industry was almost bank- - rupt by the dumping of wool from the rest of the world on the U.S. market. IKE ACTS The President by ordering an investigation has again proved that he is vitally concerned in the economic stability of the West. If the investigation proves that foreign imports are threatening to destroy the domestic wool industry, he can take action to raise tariffs. Dairy Queen j If Congress MIXERS HOPE approves the action of the Ways and Means Committee, Utahs miners can go back to work. Right now they are out of a job because the countrys lead and zinc supply is being imported from Africa and South America where miners work for as little as $11'. per month. Passage of the bill would not stop foreign imports or close foreign mines, but it will permit the domestic industry to continue to operate and to supply its traditional share of the lead and zinc used by American industry. HOUSING HELP Congress has passed and sent to the President a new housing bill. It has two features which the President can use to stimulate the purchase of homes and which will assist the average home buyer. For the first time in years, the bill will permit the President to adjust the amount of cost of the home the federal loan agencies may cover. He can if he feels it wise cut the amount of down payment to 5rc of the overall cost of the home. He also may extend repayment terms for home loans to .30 years.
