Home Agent’s Tips
By MRS. JOYE H. SPATES
Home Demonstration Agent
1963 FOOD PRICES
Consumer spending for food
will increase by almost four per
cent this year, Lora Laine, Head
of the Home Management and
Family Economics Department
of the Cooperative Extension
Service, reports.
The increase in food spending
will be accompained by a gain of
about five percent in disposable
income and an increase in ave
rage retail food prices of almost
on percent. While consumers
continue to spend more income
for food, they use a smaller por
portion of their.total income for
such outlays. Actually, only
about 19 percent of the family
income is spent for food. In the
1947-49 period, this figure was
26 percent.
Miss Laine believes that food
prices in 1963 will not undergo
any overall change from the
past year, barring any worsening
of international tensions. Retail
prices of livestock products may
average slightly lower and prices
of food from crops slightly high
er. Prives of food consumed away
from home probably will con
tinue their long run upward
trend. Retail store prices of
foods are not likely to change.
I think what we all have to
consider about food prices is the
amount of spendable income it
takes for food. After all, we can’t
expect food prices to stay at one
level while personal income goes
up. However, at the present time,
incomes have increased faster
than food prices. For that we can
feel exteremely fortunate. We
can understand why food has
been called one of our best
modern day bargains.

CARELESS LUNCH HABITS
Nutrition specialists in South
Carolina surveyed 70,000 em
ployees in the textile and gar
ment industry. In three-fourths
of the plants, the workers relied
on candy bars, soft drinks, tea,
coffee, crackers, cookies and pea
nuts from vending machines for
lunch.
In plants where cafeteria serv
ice was available, workers often
failed to select food of high
nutritional quality.

ON BUILDUP
s
NEW YORK—On the same f
day (Oct. 14, 1962) that Ameri
can U-2’s were photographing
evidence of the nuclear capa
bility in Cuba, McGeorge Bundy,
Special Assistant to the Presi
dent for National Security As- 1
fairs, was delivering a “blanket
exoneration” of the Russian
military buildup on an after
noon television program.
This was discussed recently by
James Daniel and John G.
Hubbell authors of an article,
“While America Slept” — the
complete story of the Cuban
Crisis—in the March Reader’s
Digest.
“Everything that has been de
livered in Cuba,” the authors
quote Bundy as stating on the
TV show, “falls within the cate
gories of aid which the Soviet
Union has provided, for ex
ample, to neutral states like
Egypt or Indonesia . . .”
The President’s Special As
sistant added:
“That is not going to turn an
island of six million people,
with five or six thousand Soviet
technicians and specialists, into
a major threat to the United
States.”
Up to that day, say the au
thors, “such was the relaxed
attitude of the highest admin
istration circles that Sunday
afternoon ...” ’
Though voices of warning had
been raised since early 1962,
the authors claim they had
been “tragically ignored.” Even
though thousands of words
(in intelligence reports, memo
randa, public pronouncements,
newspaper and magazine ar
ticles, on radio and television)
had poured forth, culminating
in news that nuclear-tipped
missiles were being set up, opti
mism that this was not so per
' sisted.
How the build-up was accom
plished just 90 miles from
America’s shores—and who was
to blame for the miscalculations
' —is traced by the authors in
their article.
It begins with an early Au
; gust report from CIA Director
John McCone, warning the ad
i ministration, that the Kremlin
might place offensive missiles
in Cuba; and details the step
by-step action in Washington
up to the crucial day—October
22, 1962, when President Ken
nedy addressed the nation on
Cuba.
The article discusses the
photography gap which oc
curred for 11 perilous days when
the White House told newsmen,
“weather intervened—Hurricane
Ella delayed the flights for a
week, and then a cloud cover
blocked high-level surveillance.”
The authors checked the weath
er records for the period and

disclose their findings. i
The article, which is a 40-pagel
condensation of a soon-to-be
published book: “While America
Slept,” outlines in detail the
military action which the
United States took on the week
before October 22, 1962 so when
President Kennedy spoke, he
spoke from a position of “awe
some strength.”
LETTER TO EDITOR
Mr. Jack Troy, Editor
Forest Park Free Press
Dear Sir:
I want to ask for the help of
your newspaper. I have tried to
have this matter corrected by
the Clayton County Sheriff and
the Clayton County Police, but
they haven’t helped me very
much. You know that there has
been one traffic death, a young
man from Macon, Ga., and there
have been numerous automobile
accidents on Riverdale Road be
tween the S. Per. Expressway
and G. W. Northcutt School. And
this is no wonder, because the
speed of nearly every car is far
in excess of the speed limit of
45 MPH. Please see what you
can do to have this stretch of
the road patroled. If this serious
condition is not corrected at
once we may have another traf
fic death and this time it might
be a school child.
Sincerely,
Mrs. Pete Smith
