The same agency that raised stock margins, the Federal Reserve Board, also pulls the strings, in other lines, dear or easy money, lower or higher rates. And these can affect many more people and businesses than just the traders-on- margin in the stock market. Snap judgment of bond traders was that the stock market ruling did mean tighter credit elsewhere, sooner or later. And bond sales volume Wednesday was the highest in months.

Most bond prices were lower yields from the fixed- interest securities were higher, in line with tighter credit expectations.

The social and economic existence of every community is intimately a part of the wide spectrum Dr. Coleman of the general practice of medicine. American Academy of General Practice is the organization that represents this vital force in the health of our nation.

Regularly, they embark on intensive educational campaigns for the physician and the patient in an effort to emphasize the importance of the eradication of a particular disease. New Campaign Such a campaign has just been initiated by them for the purpose of eradicating tetanus, or lockjaw. The physician in every community is enthusiastically sparking the program. Industrial, sport and automobile accidents have attained astronomical statistical levels. Almost invariably, there is a need during the critical period of accidents, for a single question to be answered: "Has the victim been immunized against tetanus?" For tetanus stilt remains a tremendous threat to health and life as a complication of certain kinds of injury.

The program of the American Academy of General Practice urges everyone to have complete immunization against tetanus. Contrary to popular opinion, previous immunization against tetanus not always confer ptrmanent immunity. Booster at intervals mig- gested by the physician art necessary to sustain. Immunity. This rule holds for Mt well as children.

The painless procedure of gins. Wall Street had been braced for some such action because of the rising volume of credit used in stock dealings, ihe frenzied activities of stocks favored by speculators, and the generally rising prices and volume of trading. But even so, choosing of Tuesday for the announcement surprised many traders. And Wednesday saw a large volume of trading in stocks with the traditional, even if temporary, drop in prices. And the Fed doesn't announce ahead of time that it's going to raise the bank discount rate- usually meaning higher interest rates elsewhere, especially for short-term borrowing; nor when it will change the amount of reserves member banks must keep with the central banks- meaning tighter money, usually making it harder and costlier to borrow term.

either short or long But other Washington officials have been at some pains in recent days to indicate think the degree of tightness in the money markets now is just what the domestic economy and the international payments situation needs. Some observers, therefore, immunization is not time-con-i think tne Fed's action Tuesday suming or expensive, nor is it associated with toxic side reactions. Yet it represents vital protection against a very rious complication of some injuries. Great Immunization against tetanui and other diseases represents a great advance in today's medical achievement. It is tragic that even one life can be lost or permanently impaired by carelessly neglecting to take advantage of Important protection.

In iuiintss Outlook For Business Spending On Plants May Hinge On Tax Bill Financial Gottto NEW YORK (UPI) That business sentiment in fine fettle was testified dramatically this week by federal authorities who hoisted a warning flag over Wall Street against unbridled enthusiasm. To some c' the Federal Reserve Board's action requiring more hard cash for margin buying was as much a go slow signal for hard-headed Conventional Double Bed On Way Out NEW YORK standard double bed is on the way out because are crowing bigger all the time.

But togetherness will continue, according to bedding manufactuers, who have decided to replace the standard bed with people-sized beds. The dimensions of the double bed were established more than 100 years ago, when a six-footer was, a rarity. Since then, Americans, both male and female, have shot upward in height and weight. For instance, American soldiers today average an inch and a half taller and 18 pounds heavier than the doughboy of World War I. This means that many modern Americans must either sleep in a crouch or dangle their feet over the foot board.

Two major obstacles prevented bedding manufacturers from increasing the size of beds when public demand for bigger beds first became apparent. First, available accessories such as sheets, blankets and bedspreads were too small for bigger beds, and second, the average housewife dreaded the thought of wres- Jling with a bigger, heavier mat- aress. Linens and blankets for larger beds are how stocked in most department stores. The second problem has been solved by use of latex foam rubber mattresses that don't need turning, and a wide variety of special devices, such as hinged mattresses or twin mattresses placed under one headboard. Customer acceptance of super- sized bedding is growing steadily.

The nation's largest mattress manufacturer reports that more than 25 per cent of sales this year are in extra sizes. 108-Year-Old Church Walls Get Facelifting LOCKPORT, N. Y.

Dietrich, a Maryknoll father, inhabitants of this "green hell" jungle area of Eastern Bolivia have organized a model Brazil nut and rubber cooperative. When Father Dietrich first arrived in 1957, families roamed the jungles looking for nuts and collected them by hand.

Now this town of 600 has a Brazil nut plant, a rubber processing plant and a plant for making oil from nuts. Recently, a bulldozer was bought by the cooperative and plans are underway to clear land for new crops chocolate, vanilla, cof- buiinessmen as to restless who might be on the verge of a speculative binge. It was reasoned that federal fiscal authorities fear corporate planners, emboldened by the bubbling state of business, might misjudge the consumers buying mood and embark on an excessive expansion program. Industry Plans Spending The outlook for business spending on new plants and equipment and consumer spending will hinge to a large degree on the fate of the administration's tax bill. No boom is in sight, but a recent government survey indicated that industry plans to substantially increase its outlays in the fourth quarter over the third.

As for longer range plans, a survey made public this week showed that industry budgets provide for a record $40.7 billion next year, up 4 per cent from the 1963 figure. The study by McGraw-Hill Publishing economists said that "while nol indicating a boom neither will it be a drag on the economy, as some have feared. Reflecting near record auto assemblies and heavy.construc- tion activity as the result of unseasonably dry weather, the nation's steel industry produced more steel last week than in any week since July 13. output totaled 1,944,000 tons, up 1.5 per cent from the previous week. Profits the only true measure of the health of the economy were sharply higher in the third quarter for most lines of business.

The steel industry nearly doubled its third quarter earnings as its return on sales rose to 4.3 per cent from 2.5 per cent a year ago. Car Sales Forecast Many in Detroit now are confidently forecasting car sales for all 19B3 will reach 7.3 million, far ahead of earlier official forecasts. But this figure still would trail the peak 1955 volume of 7.4 million units. Total business sales figures for October are not in yet, but for September they totaled $70 billion, up slightly from August but shy of the record $70.7 billion of July. Manufacturers' sales rose slightly but retail volume declined about 1 per cent.

Consumers increased their in- stalment plan purchases i September but by considerably less than in the previous month. The Federal Reserve Board reported that total instalment debt expanded by $321 million as against an increase of $425 million in August. This was the smallest gain since September, 1962. Investors in American, business and industry are having one of the most profitable dividend years in some time. General Motors wasn't typical but indicative of the dividend trend over the past year.

In declaring a year-end dividend the world's largest manufacturing concern became the first corporation in history to pay out more than $1 billion in dividends in a single year. Glass Container Makers Expect Record Year By JESSE BOGUS UPI Financial Editor NEW YORK Athld tht clamor of steel-versus-aluminum for packaging of various consumer products, and the progress made by paper and plastics in the field, along came the glass container makers saying they expect another record year. In some consumer lines, they explain, the glass container line keeps chugging along, helped by the natural, growth of the population with its accompanying rise in demand levels, and helped also by technological and marketing advances, The Glass Container Manufacturers' Institute (GCMI) reports that glass containers account for about 45 per cent of all the glass made in the United States. Flat glass, for windows, walls, doors and other uses, chalks up 29 per cent of the glass market and tableware, lighting, laboratory materials, make up the balance. Thinner Glass The Institute believes its total shipments by the end of 1963 will touch 25.5 billion units, about two per cent higher than 1962, and the fifth consecutive year they have reached new highs.

Dollar volume represented by the glass bottles and jars and attendant fixtures amounted in 1962 to $1,285,000, the Institute estimates. The container makers plow about $10 million annually back into research and development Among things on which the laboratory men work is production of a thinner but stronger glass, and some progress has been made in this. But while research goes on for a more durable glass suitable, for example, for use by the housewife who keeps wide-mouth jars for storage of odds and ends of edibles in the refrigerator one of the industry's biggest growth items has been the no-deposit, no return beer bottle, which hit markets generally about four years ago.

merce shipment figures showed that 9.9 million gross moved in 1959; 13.5 million in 1960; 19.4 million in 1961; and 23.8 million in 1962. A study made by the Econometric Institute, a research group, for the GCMI indicated the figure would rise for 1963. Both in the beer and in the soft "drink field, the glass container battles head-on with the light steel or aluminum can, including the new tab opening models. But the glass makers say they have shown gains in the disposable bottle usage for soft drinks as well as for beer, and predict that the usage will continue to rise. Raise Threat Of Rail Strike For Next March WASHINGTON (UPI) The threat of a nationwide railroad strike next March was raised today by Grand Chief Roy E.

Davidson of the Brotherhood of Locomotive Engineers (BLE). Davidson warned that a new transportation crisis may develop unless railroad unions score a 66 real victory" in current negotiations over the almost forgotten "secondary issues," that is, those not connected with the size of train crews. His statement was printed in today's issue of "Labor," the official publication of 18 major railroad unions. It came as final briefs were submitted to an arbitration board considering the dispute triggered by railroad management demands for abolition of firemen on diesel trains and reduction in the cost of manning trains.
