Upward Trend in
Purchasing Power
To Continue in ’63
Employment - Education —Con-
tinued improvement in levels of
living are expected for the
coming year.' Somewhat higher
per capita disposable personal
income during the past year has
provided families with more
purchasing power in spite of
small increases in retail prices
This trend is expected to con
tinue in 1963.
Recent legislation authorizing
Federal-State programs to train
unemployed and underemployed
workers is expected to be of con
siderable assistance to persons
in the farm population seeking
off-farm job opportunities Such
programs would offer training
in skills required to meet
shifting employment needs.
Education becomes increas
ingly important in all areas of
the labor market Extent of
education is closely associated
with earnings, even in occupa-i
tions requiring manual labor
primarily. Males with four years
or less at schooling received
only three-fifths as much per
day as did high school grad
uates last year.
Wives are contributing more
and more to family incomes by
working in gainful employment
This year the percentage of
women in the labor force who
were married reached an all
time high. Many working wives
have small children and for this
group one study shows that job
related expenditures consumed
about 50 percent of their gross
income This indicates a need

"IT'S THE NEWS FOR ALL THE NEWS 7 '
for working mothers to consider
very carefully the net income
they will receive above job re
lated expenses when considering
out-of-the home employment.
Food and Nutrition Our
abundant food supply makes it
possible for us to be well fed—
whether considered on the basis
of personal likes and dislikes or
from a nutritional standpoint.
Consumers continue to spend
more for food but a smaller por
tion of their income is required
for food purchases According to
latest indications about 19 per
cent of the consumer dollar is
spent for food.
Much of the dollar increase in
spending for food per capita is
for higher quality, more em
phasis on higher cost items and
the purchase of more services
with our foods in processing and
distributing.
Barring a worsening of inter
national tensions, then* is likely
to be little overall change in
food prices for 1963 from this
year Prices of food consumed
away from home probably will
continue their long term up
ward trend.
Because of the interest in the
possible role of fats and their
components, the saturated and
unsaturated fatty acids, in
heart disease estimates have
been made of the content of
these nutrients in the U. S. food
supplies 1930 and 1962.
Total fat consumption has in
creased by seven percent. At the
same time the calorie level of
the half 32-30 but were unable to
sustain their lead. The “B”
game result was 15-15.
Ringgold comes to Trion Fri
day night for a session. And
Trion hosts Pepperell Tuesday
night.
food has decreased nine per
lcent. Calorie needs are esti
‘ mated to have decreased about
the same percentage.
Food consumption estimates
[show that since 1930 there has
been no significant change in
the use of saturated fatty acids
but considerable increase <l4
percent) in the use of unsatu
rated fatty acids. Recent re
search has indicated that the
type of carbohydrate in the diet
may have some relation to fat
metabolism. Figures show that
calories from carbohydrates in
the nation’s diet today are about
equally divided between starches
and sugars.
The significance of the trend
data for fat and carbohydrates
can only be evaluated ade
quately when more is learned
about the interrelationship of
nutrients.
Clothing and Textiles—The
news about consumer price level
for apparel is good—it rose only
one percent this year and only
three percent in the past ten
years.
The belief ot some people that
clothing prices have advanced
decidedly over a year ago and
importantly over the past ten
years and is not borne out by
changes in the apparel index.
The feeling of increased prices
may be due to: (1) Trading up
in quality as incomes advanced,
and (2) Purchasing different
types or qualities of apparel
than those priced in the Con
sumer Price Index.
Among new items to look for
ward to are: <1) Stretch cotton
fabric in work and everyday
clothes, <2) Stretch wool fabric
in men's winter suits and com
binations of stretch dacron and
wool fabrics for spring, <3> No
run seamless nylon hose, <4) '
Throw-away nylon hose at a
very moderate price and <s> A
new high brilliance shoe ma-;
terial that resists cracking and
scuffing.
UPWARD TREND G TWO
Retail prices of clothing and
textiles arc expected to edge
upward and higher prices are
expected for men’s suits in par- |
ticular by next fall.
Housing, Household Furnish
ings and Equipment- The Senior
Citizens Housing Act of 1962 is
expected to speed up progress
in improved housing for the

Family Is
Strength of
U.S.’s Progress
By AUDREY MORGAN
Even with all the scientific
advancements we have today,
alert adults realize that families
remain the strength of future
progress. Parents will give much
I thought to the welfare of their
families. How can we rear our
children to live happily and ef
fectively in tomorrow’s world?
' How can we help our family
meet these needs?
Mature, responsible people in
a democratic society have feel
| ings of security and adequacy
They have understanding of
j themselves and a sympathetic
appreciation of others. They
have democratic values and
patriotic goals. Present-day
I needs require problem solving
attitudes. Self - discipline, re
| sponsibility, an appreciation of
freedom and a constructive at
titude toward change are
needed goals for American chil
dren.
How can parents instill these
qualities in children? One defi
nition of “A Good Home" pro
vides a guide. Its objective is to
produce emotionally mature, ef
fective adults. A good home pro
vides each child with the fol
lowing basic needs:
<1) He is loved and wanted
and knows it; <2) He is helped
to grow up by not having too
much or too little done for him:
<3) He has some time and some
space of his own; <4 > He is part
of a family, he has fun with th<
family and belongs to it: <s> Hi)
early mistakes and “badness'
are understood as a normal part
of growing up; <6> His growing
skills are enjoyed and respected
and (7) He plans with the fam
ily and is given real ways tc
help and feel needed and re
spected.
When we think about each
item we recognize that none b
more than any person shoua
expect.

cants who are deficient in re
payment ability, any person

elderly may finance the cost of

The act also authorizes the
