Deify News, Wednesday, September 25, 1963. THE LUDINGTON DAILV NEWS llsfMHi vrillek ft Cdunty fcnfcrprlftf ef Mich. By John Chamberlain Tempering Sympathy With Reproach The British in relinquishing their hold on their old colonies, have been exceedingly fair and decent. But in freeing everything that remains of the old British empire in Southeast Asia to permit the birth of an independent Federation of Malaysia, they are learning that decency has Its handicaps. For their fair-mindedness about Malaysia, they have incurred the covetous wrath of those rampant new imperialists, the Indonesians, who want part of the Malaysian territory for themselves.

It was this covetousness that pushed the Indonesian mobs to loot and burn the tfireeistory British embassy in.Jakarta,-the capital of Indonesia. Sukarno, the boss of Indonesia, has apologized for the action, but he shows no signs himself of repudiating the rampant new imperialism that stirred 10,000 of his subjects to their incendiary hooliganism. He still wants Malaysian territory for himself. So, incidentally, do the Filipinos who have put in a shadowy claim to North Boreno. This substitution of new imperialism for old makes a mockery of the hopes of the world for a new spirit.

A united Congo, far from being grateful for help in establishing peace within its own borders, gives sanctuary to a Holden Roberto, who would "free" neighboring Portuguese Angola by clubbing and murdering all those Angolans who would prefer to be led into the future by some other savior. The newly emergent nations of Africa are doing their best turn the UN into a power mechanism that will interfere in the internal affairs of any member nation that displeases the majority. In Burma, the strong man General Ne Win is repaying help from Britain and the United States by making leals with the pro-Mao Tse-Tung Burmese Communist parly. In general, the behavior of many of the new nations, which should be taking world leadership by bending over backwards to uphold strict standards of decency and justice, recalls the gloomy observation made by old General Tasker Bliss at the Versailles Peace Conference of 1919. "The submerged, nations," so Bliss 1 wrote home to his wife, "are coming to the surface and as soon as they appear they fly at somebody's throat.

They are like mosquitoes, vicious from the moment of birth." Because of the behavior of the Indonesians toward the British, the Macmillan government deserves all manner of sympathy. But the United States should temper its expression of condolences with some regretful reproaches. For the British have done very little to help us deal with the Cuba of Fidel Castro, which has behaved toward us very much as the Indonesians have been behaving in destroying British property and menacing the lives of British citizens. Castro has even invaded British territory in the Bahamas in the effort to maintain his own maritime equivalent of the Berlin Wall. The British finally got around to protesting this act of invasion.

But they still persist in trading with Castro, ship after ship carry the Union Jack into Cuban harbors. This makes a travesty of the efforts of the United States to maintain an embargo of Castro, whose imperialism is even now threatening the integrity of the British colony of British Guiana, which will probably be freed only to fall into the hands of Castroitcs. Since January i the U. S. Maritime Commission nas maintained a black-list of free world ships that are trading with Cuba.

The names of 53 British ships now appear on that blacklist, which makes Britain an even worse offender than Greece, which has let 52 ships take goods to Cuba. Our way of punishing Britons and Greeks has been to deny a blacklisted ship the right to carry U. S. government cargo. This means nothing to the British or the Greeks, who have other ships to send into U.

S. ports. By all means, Jet us make a united front with the British in opposing the imperialist designs of Indonesia's Su' karno on old British territories i Malaysia. But in exchange, the 'British should help us to deal with that most troublesome bone in our own throat, Fidel Castro.

By representative banks, we mean. banks that understand and meet the financial problems Of individual members of the community in as far as business judgment and the law permits. It Seems that good bankers have to be both pessimistic and optimistic. We prefer the optimistic kind and We believe our local banks are of that variety; although, we have not tried to borrow any money of late. In our recollection, Ludington banks have not failed to support all constructive community endeavors through the years.

Both the Ltidington State Bank and the National Bank of Ludington should be commended for arranging more hours of service for their Ludington customers. It will also help business to have the banks open on Saturday mornings. We predict that the new schedule will not only benefit the public, but will increase business for banks. P. Pittsburgh, Liberty Ledger: "Now there is more money, but the old idea of thrift has been abandoned.

Of course the example for all of this is set by government, which insists that it must spend, regardless of resources. Government says it's all right to let the national debt pile up; just borrow more money for what is being purchased this year and to pay the interest on what was borrowed before." "What a charmer! Too bod he's with the wrong political partyl" Fifth Of Scries What Industry Means To This Community STAR WATCH CASE COMPANY Star Watch Case Company was founded in 1893 in Elgin, 111., by the late 0. A. Starke and Fred Hermann. In the early 1900's, the late A.

W. Church joined the firm; in 1925, tho Edwin Shelby joined the firm; in 1927, A. Starke joined the firm; and in 1948, Edgar Schwaibold, Alfred Northman, and Karl Schwaibold joined the firm. The present officers are 0. A.

Starke president and treasurer; Edgar K. Schwaibold, vice president for manufacturing, and John G. Foy, secretary and assistant treasurer. In 1905, the company moved to Ludington and located at its present site on S. Rath Avc, About 3910, the front on Rath Avenue was extended; in 1920, the north and south wings wore added; in 1927, the present tool and die wing was added, and in 1943, the new office addition on Rath was built.

During the transition period when the new plant was being constructed in 1905, 50 Ltidington residents, both men and women, moved to Elgin to get their first training in watch case manufacture techniques. These, together with many' Elgin employes who moved to Ludinglon, became the original crew for the new plant, Pocket watch cases continued to be the major product until World War I when the doughboy came home from France, wearing his wrist watch that timed his charges "over-the-top" in trench warfare. This popularized the wrist watch, and wrist cases became an ever-increasing proportion of total production. Today, about 95 percent are wrist cases. In 1941, all esssential metals were frozen for purposes and Star converted to war work.

Many stainless steel, waterproof wrist cases were made for all branches of the services, also compass cases, gun parts, precision parts, timer cases and navigational instruments for the Air Corps at Wright Field. Employment soared to a peak of 550. At the end of the war, production of civilian watch cases was resumed. The superiority of waterproof watch cases was proved in World War II and, today, a large proportion of the plant production consists of them, some screw back, and some one-piece waterproof cases, where the watch movement is inserted through the crystal opening, after which the plastic crystal is inserted. All waterproof cases are tested in water at 35 pounds per square inch for waterproof ness before shipping.

Of the many watch case companies that started in the pocket watch era, Star is the only' one which wag successful in converting lo wrist cases and to changing times, and is the only one among them operating today. Star, along with many others which later started on wrist watch cases only, is operating today in a highly competitive industry. Today, Star's competition is not only domestic, but includes plants in Switzerland, West Germany, France, Japan and Hong Kong as well. Star designs tools, and produces exclusive watch case creations for a number of domestic producers and importers of high quality watch movements in sizes from the smallest to the largest, and in solid rolled gold plate, silver, and stainless steel qualities. The vast majority of Star watch cases are used on complete watches which sell in the retail stores for $27.50 up to $150.

Star's highest contribution to this community's economy was in 1951 when payroll, local purchases and taxes totaled $1,612,000. In 1962, the corresponding figure was $1,220,000. This decrease is caused by a shrinking market for high quality watches, by a hold-the-line or actual reduction in watch case prices, and by a trend to inferior, low-priced pin lever watches, cases for which those of Star are usually priced out of the market. It is hoped that this trend will slow or cease and that true values will again 5 be recognized. Star's employment varies from 250 to 350 and its eligible ployes are represented by Allied Industrial Workers of America, i-'-.

DEAR ABBY: A neighbor asked me to write for her as she can't write English. Here is her problem: Her husband is 76 and retired.

She is 62. Last May they attended a convention. Her husband is such a playboy she had to shift for herself while he ran after girls young enough to be his daughters. Her question is, should she go to another one of these conventions scheduled in October? She doesn't know whether to go and be hurt again, or to stay home and let him go alone and have the good time he doesn't deserve. A FRIEND DEAR FRIEND: A 76-year-old playboy is only running for tht your friend to go along.

She'd ba miserable at wondering what the old coot was up to. DEAR ABBY: I feel like a highlight on the local sight-seeing tour. My husband and I have a lovely new home, of which we are very proud, but his mother has gone overboard about it. She brings all the visiting firemen to go through my house without even calling to tell me they arc coming. I have small children and the usual chores to do, but that doesn't bother her.

She appears with the sight-seers at all hours, Should I sell tickets, or tell her that appointments must be made in advance, or what? Please don't print my name, or my HEAD will be on display with the rest of the house. "HATES SURPRISES" DEAR "HATES:" Tell your mother-in-law that you don't mind being an attraction on her sightseeing tour, but you don't like surprise visits. Ask her please to give you at least three hours' notice. DEAR ABBY: You always say that a wife should not convict her husband on circumstantial evi- made sure what those objectives and methods should, be). Better- than-usual advantages.

You Born Today: are innately stable and high-minded; have balance, good judgment and tremendous inner strength. You wish things to be tidy, abhor unclean surroundings, habits. For your reforms and revisions, study all factors thoroughly, know how far to go in a given time; thus do not defeat good projects by striking out for too much, too soon.

You delight in stimulating conversation, music, drama; could take up dramatics, entertaining as a side line. Never feeble in effort, you may have to curtail ambitions sometimes to conserve strength for future duties. Birthdate: Cuthbert, Lord Colling wood, Brit, admiral. dence. Just because she happens to find a hairpin in his pocket, or lipstick on his handkerchief, you say is no reason to lose trust in him.

Well, I sure disagree with you 100 percent. Where there's smoke, there's fire. My old man swore on his mother's grave that he was true to me. I found out later that he was lying. TRUSTING FOOL DEAR TRUSTING: You win few, lose a few.

I still say, don't let the smoke get in your eyes. DEAR ABBY: What has become of manners? I am employed at one of the most exclusive stores in this city. We carry the finest china, crystal and silver, and cater to the best people. You would be shocked at the number of so- called "well-bred ladies" who apparently have never heard of acknowledging a wedding gift. I am the person who checks to assure the sender that her gift was received by the bride.

Please print this. I have frequently been tempted to telephone the bride's mother to tell her please to put the spurs into her lazy daughter. Thank you. DISGUSTED What's on your mind? For a personal reply, send a self-addressed, stamped envelope to Abby, Box 3365, Beverly Hills, Calif. Pre-Snack Grace Will Continue LONG BEACH, Calif.

pre-snack grace for nursery school children will continue despite a county counsel ruling that it is illegal, the Long Beach Board of Education says. The board voted unanimously Monday to continue the prayer after the county counsel said the practice violates U.S. Supreme Court decisions making similar school prayers illegal. The board said it would receive and file the opinion. The prayer, recited before the midmorning snack at -eight Long Beach nursery schools, goes: "God is good, God is great: "We thank you for the food "On our plate." Neiv Dam To Have Hot, Cold Water REDDING, Calif.

Kennedy dedicates this Saturday the Whiskeytown Dam which will provide hot and cold running water for spawning salmon. This is the first dam designed by the U.S. Bureau of Reclamation providing such service. Salmon like water of 55 degrees Fahrenheit for spawning. But water behind the dam can vary from 30 to 40 degrees from the surface to the bottom.

So Whiskeytown Dam, near Redding, will have built-in control gates two levels. Water from each outlet can be mixed to provide just the right temperature for the fish. DAILY CROSSWORD ACROSS 1. Source of light K. Vipers 9.

WHITS Michigan Teacher turnover in Miehigafl runs about 10 pet cent annually, according to a survey by the State Department of Public Instruction. Superintendent Lynn M. Bartlett believes that most teachers who did not return this 1 fall to the jobs they held during the 1962-63 school year went to other school districts. This was 1 the first year the department compiled statistical data on the number of teachers who do not return to the same school system in a succeeding year. The 10 cent attrition represented 6,921 teachers.

Analysis of the survey showed 27.2 per cent went to other school districts, another 19.6 per cent retired to rear families, 15.1 per cent retired, 9.4 per cent obtained other employment and 2 per cent died. The other 26.7 per cent gave up their teaching posts for unknown or miscellaneous reasons, Bartlett said. The extensive study also showed the number of fulllime teachers in Michigan reached an all-time high of 65,146 last year. A rather interesting fact was also noted in the survey report. Most people think men are a imall minority in the teaching The study, however, showed there were 21,149 male teachers and 43,997 females.

Most of the men were in the secondary schools, with only 5,501 teaching at the elementary level. Men outnumbered women teachers-, 15,648 to 11,952, in the secondary system last year. WATER DANGERS The same unfortunate increase in accidents that is being recorded on the highways is taking place, on Michigan's waterways, according to the State Police. A provisional report through mid- September showed 215 persons drowned and 202 persons were injured in 474 accidents, This represented an increase of 13 deaths over last year. The injuries in the first nine months of the year were higher than the total number hurt in water accidents during all of 1962, however, the department said.

The number of accidents which occurred also was higher than the full- figure of 457 accidents for 1962. State Police Commissioner Joseph A. Childs noted that water accident death's and injuries generally show a marked decrease after the Labor Day weekend. "Outddot fctttfwstaiti reminded, that tfaey should exercise Caution to any activity in or near water during the remainder of the yeaf," said. Water accidents ate not confined to summer activities, Childs noted.

Three of the victims already recorded this year fell through ice, and some 40 others died when they fell from bridges, banks, docks and piers. PROMOTE IN MINUTE Planning for the annual Michigan Week has come to be nearly a year-round job for the organizers of the event. This is as it was hoped when the annual brag week was initipted a decade ago. Now a new selling campaign is getting under way, similar to thai intended in the planning of Michigan Week promotions. The group conducting the new effort is headed by A.

R. Saunders, executive vice president of the Michigan Real Estate Association. Known as the Michigan Minutemen, the new unit hopes to sell the state 365 days a year to attract new industires, tourists and permanent residents. Working as leaders of the Minutemen are executive secretaries or managers of 12 organizations representing civic, farm, labor, religious, professional and trade associations. Each of the associations in turn will enlist members of the Minutemen, which derived its name from the volunteer units trained before the Revolutionary War to "fight at a minute's notice." The tuna is one of the very few fish that maintain a body temperature somewhat higher than that of the surrounding water.
