Publisher ponders White House visit proves informative Bonnie and I received a sur- prise invitation to Washington D.C. by President Richard Nixon on Oct. 6. The invitation was for Tuesday, Oct. 10, with briefings by high government officials starting at 1 p.m. and a reception with the President and Mrs. Nixon at 5 p.m. We dont receive invitations such as this very often, so we made plans. The briefings were good. Herbert Klein, White House Communication Director informed us of the schedule for the day and introduced the briefing speakers. Secretary of State, William Ro- gers made the weekly press repre- sentatives aware of the world situation at the present. He reported how different it is now to meet foreign ministers of world nations. They speak frankly, we are liked, we are respected. President Nixon he said, is also respected very highly in the world. The secretary says we have received invitations from Czechoslovakia and Bulgaria to visit them and to try to work our past differences. SALT talks have brought some relief to worried peoples. WORLD PEACE EFFORTS Mid-Ea- cease fire effect has st been brought about because of action taken some three years ago.

He illustrated one market by saying that to build a ship to carry gas would cost $80 million and 20 such ships would be needed for one field. Weekly press officials heard Myles Ambros talk on the drug situation. A new budget of $729 million has been approved. The old budget was $65 million. Of the $729 million, 60 is for rehabilitation. Interesting to me was that 10 square miles anywhere in the world can grow opium enough for America. Heroin is made In the opinion of from opium. Mr. Ambros, marijuana is dan- gerous, but, they have not determined yet just how dangerous. ,'i ' FARM PROGRESS Some 60 years ago we could not have spared the people on the farm to make television sets, cars, etc., they were needed on the farm to raise food, so stated Secretary of Agriculture, Earl Betz. Todays food budget requires only 16 of the average income. With some humor -- - he added in closing -- - a bumper sticker on a car was printed in red, white, and blue and stated theseicolors dont run! -- peaceful also. Secretary of Treasury, George Shultz talked about our future growth rate and interest rates. The government stand is that interest rates should remain low so as to continue our economy growth. Many three year contracts have to be renewed next year. This is of some concern at this point. RUSSIA TRADE POSSIBILITY x.
