Koch has been authorized by Board of Supervisors to travel next week to Sacramento in support of legislation on a freeway master plan for Southern California. The trip was authorized because several previously-announced proposed freeways in Orange County are included in the master plan. The legislative bill is now in committee. Claim Surplus Meat 'Dumped' in California PORTLAND (UPI) — A battle over freight rates has allowed Midwest packers to dump surplus meats on West Coast markets, a California meat packing official said Wednesday. Albert T. Luer, vice president and chairman of the board of Luer Packing Co., Inc., Los Angeles, testified at an Interstate Commerce Commission hearing here. The hearing, scheduled to wind up today, is on railroad requests for rate reductions on meat shipped from the Midwest to the West. He charged the freight rate battle has reduced his volume. He charged Midwest meat packers with trying to get a foothold on the West Coast. E. Floyd Forbes, president of the Western States Meat Packers Association, said a number of California meat packing firms were forced to close last year because of the freight rate battle. Great Lakes Seaway Shipping Boom Seen EAST LANSING, Mich. (UPI) — The Great Lakes will become a "new Mediterranean" with the opening of the St. Lawrence Seaway, according to Harry C. Brockel, Milwaukee municipal port director. Brockel told a Michigan State University audience the basic job of the seaway would be to serve the growing interdependence of the United States and Canada. Joe: Builders are now puttin houses at a rate of more than 300,000 a year. This pace can won't be maintained. It'll do to 1,200,000 or so houses, and will slow the whole economy. Jim: I also expect house slow to a 1,200,000-a-year rate this many houses would spanner year for the industry; total would be above most mistic forecasts at the start of year. Joe: The steel industry is ing along at a record pace but it won't continue. Strike, steel production will be down in the third quarter, and will adversely affect hundred businesses. Jim: I agree that steel production will be down in the third ter. But the buying today is precipitation of a strike and-or increases — which means t Southern California. The trip was authorized because several previously-announced proposed freeways in Orange County are included in the master plan. The legislative bill is now in committee.

Are two of the nation's best economists. Scattered oe them are charts and papers stuck with rows of statistics. For hours, the question before: Is meeting has been whether business is heading for a slowdown, or whether the advance to n.w. nights is still strong and solid. For hours the two economists have been quoting identical statis tion back up each view. Finally, they say. Look, Joe, you think the ad cess is losing steam and the last months of 1959 are going to be bogish. You, Jim, believe the p- cut. Cut the bafflegab and give some key parts of the argu ment in my kind of language." Is they do and here is what he you ... Builders are now putting up houses at a rate of more than 1,100,000 a year. This pace can't and isn't maintained. It'll decline 1,200,000 or so houses, and this will slow the whole economy. I also expect housing to move to a 1,200,000-a-year rate, but it won't continue. Strike or no strike, steel production will be wavwn in the third quarter, and this will adversely affect hundreds of businesses. Joe: The steel industry is roar- along at a record pace ow- but it won't continue. Strike or no strike, steel production will be wavwn in the third quarter, and this will adversely affect hundreds of businesses. Jim: I agree that steel produc- on will be down in the third quar- but the buying today is in an ap- plication of a strike and -or price- increases — which means today's quickly absorb our unemployed But the surveys show only a 4 per cent rise signals a new uptrend, and an end to the cutbacks. And at this stage in economic recoveries, cor- sions usually understate th.r spending plans, and they boost the estimates as their sales and profits rise. I think that 4 per cent estimate is low. And one reason I think so is that lots of businessmen have been impressed with the way their new equipment is cutting costs, and they'll step up investments in new plants to cut production costs some more. Joe: Talking of surveys, the latest one on consumers shows a sharp pickup only in plans to buy houses. No zip coming from consumers. Jim: But the survey also showed consumers much more optimistic about their own situations, and consumers as well as businessmen tend to raise their spending sights when they feel confident. Joe: Government spending is rising, but at a slower pace. Jim: Yes. This stimulant is fading, but it's not a negative factor. Joe: I can't see unemployment going down much for many months. The level of unemployment is a great depressant. Jim: But if what I see happening in the economy does happen, joblessness will be declining as the year rolls on, and in the meantime, I'm counting on important emergency aid to help the unemployed. You: There sure are persuasive arguments on both sides! Me: There sure are, and this sort of debate — with the bafilegab added — is being held in executive suite. Dear Abby... Got the Right Idea, Honey! by Abigail Van Buren DEAR ABBY: My problem is my aunt. She upsets my mother Every time the phone rings and it's my aunt I know she has some more bad news. The only time she calls my mother is when she has new that somebody died or somebody is getting a divorce or somebody has cancer. I am only 14 years old but even I know better than a call up with only bad news all the time. Do you think I am old enough to tell my aunt in a courteous way next time I see her that I wish she would call up my mother just once in her life and make her good? FOURTEEN DEAR FOURTEEN: I don't advise 14-year-olds to criticize the elders, but your aunt could use a little common sense and convey good information occasionally. Perhaps an adult member of your family could make the helpful suggestion. DEAR ABBY: I have been going with this boy (steady) a long time and we are very much in love. The only thing is he can't conti- himself. We plan to be married in three years. We hardly ever doudate, which is the trouble. Abby, I want marriage to have a cleat. He says a boy is different but I'm sure that by denying h I'm right. How can I convince him I am right? I am 16 and he is 20 CONFUSION DEAR CONFUSED: He KNOWS you are right. He is only try- to wear down your resistance. Insist on double-dating to reduce a temptation. A 16-year-old girl would be wise to re-evaluate her opinion of a man who encourages her to abandon her moral code. He's selfish and a selfish suitor makes a poor husband. DEAR ABBY: I wasted two years of my life going with a no-go- louse. There isn't room enough in your column to print all the lowdo tricks he pulled on me. A girl I know (she works in the office I used work in when I went with him) is now falling for his line, just like did. I would like to tip her off to what kind of a burn he is, but weder if you think she would appreciate the information? I hate to mast a fool of myself. EX-CHU DEAR EX: Love is not only blind — it's deaf, by choice. If she emotionally involved with him, your well-meaning advice would be abl as welcome as a skunk at a garden party. She'd regard you as woman scorned" so unless you're asked, keep your lip zipped. Why don't your parents trust you? Get ABBY'S booklet, "W Every Teenager Wants to Know."

Joe: The steel industry is roaring along at a record pace ow, it won't continue. Strike or no strike, steel production will be way own in the third quarter, and this will adversely affect hundreds of businesses. Jim: I agree that steel producon will be down in the third quarture. But the buying today is in an anthropology of a strike and -or priceincreases — which means today's buying doesn't represent overload of inventories. Rather, it's sengle advance buying, and the steeling warehoused now will be used as the year goes on. The buyers will be back. Joe: Auto sales are ahead of 58, but there's no zip in the instry, and I don't see one coming Jim: Here we definitely differ, because I think sales are encouraggly high in view of the fact that everybody knows the Big Trees' impact cars are coming, and any buyers must be holding off see the cars. Sales could jump when the smaller cars come out, and seasonal patterns could be turned upside down. I can foresee big sales buildup. Joe: If business spending on new ants would rise sharply, I'd be conviced we're really on our way, for that sort of activity would County Losing Race for Enough Hospital Beds SANTA ANA, (OCNS) — Orange County is "losing ground" in its efforts to provide adequate hospital beds for its muchrooming population, according to Dr. E. L. Russell, head of the county health department. There are now about 1210 hospital beds, or 1.8 per thousand persons in the county, according to Dr. Russell. This total includes 74 beds that will soon be available at the South Coast Community Hospital in Laguna Beach. In 1940, there were only 438 hospital beds in the county, but the population was so small that there was a ratio of 3.3 beds per thousand persons. In the years 1952 to 1958, there were 660 beds established in seven completely new hospitals, but three obsolete hospitals with 92 beds were closed. During the period, the Hoag Memorial Presbyterian Hospital opened with 112 units at Newport Beach. Future developments include 138 more beds at Hoag by September, 1959. Also this year, Santa Ana Community Hospital is to increase its capacity by 63, bringing its total to 175. Fish products canned for human consumption in the U.S last year came to 740 million pounds, a 90-million-pound increase over 1957.
