So we CM expect the to bite fairly Hard into President Eittfthowtr't fJJ billion Covervmtivts in both parties have a cumulative Ming that the aid program inescapably involves waste. They hope to minimize it by the available total Otters see ciU foreign assistance as an easy way to win tha "economy 1 tag without hurting thamselvw in the eyes of their constituents. Some congressional liberals this time are said to feel that if foreign aid is slashed there will be more "budget room" for new grams they believe the voters want. And there are those who have taken to objecting not because they dislike foreign aid or see it as an easy mark but because they feel the recent emphasis on military rather than economic help is a mistake. The truth: of course, is that Congress as a whole grew so hostile to economic aid that it was slashed sharply, and the administration tries to work of back id each year by liberal interpretations of the phrase "defense support." With coming from so many quarters for soch divergent reasons, only a miracle or an imminent threat of disaster somewhere among our foreign friends would be likely to salvage the President's program whole.

Hie program's prospects are not helped by the fact that its proponents seem to have lost most rf whatever knack they had for presenting the case for foreign aid forcefully and persuasively. We hear again and again that die Soviet economic challenge in the work) is great, that Inside Labor Easily the most bitter pill of all swallowed by the public coats at least half-a billkm dollars a yean This ii the fake pill, the quack modicine, the vicious phony vitamin and the powdered ground-up food cure-all rackets now actually "taking" some 10,001,000 working people. Thte $501,000,000 is only one quarter of take of a grim consumer racket on which war has i just been declared. Until eight weeks ago I slick consumer racketeers had been milking the public i of well over two billion dol- Bigt ei lars a year while the coun- RIEScL try had been fascinated by the more muscled mobsters. These con men so smooth that they've been able to heavily oversell their quackery.

A recent survey, fcr example, revealed more than 50 per cent of the workers in hundreds of plants have their salaries garnisheed because of unwise buying. The surveys were made by a new tough combine, working together for the first time against the "crooked sell" operators who have been digging deep i to the housekecpi ng money and breadbaskets of America. The forces now moving into the campaign against the consumer racket are the universities, the Better Business Bureaus and the law enforcement agencies coordinated by the AFL- C10 Community Services Committee. This AFL-C10 group is headed by a dedicated crusader, Leo Perl is, He has no political axe to grind, wants to sell no cooperative purchasing methods, seeks to neither push one political party nor punish another, neither to denounce one brand nor promote a special product. As Perlis puts it, "All we want to is to stretch the dollar of the working man and get him his money's worth so he doesn't lose across the palm of a crooked hand what his union wort for him and his employer gave him bargaining Perils and his trained national staff found that hundreds of millions of dollars still are being, spent for such quackery as vacuum cleaners which are sold as protection against infectious disease; color projectors end astrological charts sold by to cure disease; bathtub perfume sold in bottles i Paris labels; and container! of shucked oys- ten atrfd by the pound half of which is water It was found that almost $3,000,000 a season if spent just for water absorbed by these oysters.

Working quietly, Perils' Community Services Committee set up a consumer counseling organization, A group of 138 of its men, from 7S cities, were trained for three objectives: TTity went to up consumer information dwses. These will be given in two-hour over 10 weeks. The trouble here is to find specialists in the field. So little at- tentkii hat been paid to the consumer that there are just not enough men capable of operating these classes acroas the U.S. Bit in ont fashion or another classes are fuACtthnhg in Columbus, Boston, Los An- fdotV and are about to open in New and many other cities.

But the words the foreign aid advocates speak lack fire. They don't stir the blood of the citizen who wonders why he should care. The cause is made to sound tired. The results of the voting in Congress will be tired, too, unless the supporters of the aid program find strong new drums to beat.

Go, Bug, Go As you probably know, the Internal Revenue Service takes cognizance of Nature's sudden assaults upon your property. Jf a wicked iccstorm weighs down your trees, you can take a deduction. If the roof caves in from an extra burden of snow, Up until recently, however, attacks upon your house by termites were not considered in this category. The bureau seemed to feel these depredations were the result of long, premeditated planning by the insects, and simply didn't fit what they had In mind. This policy has now been Henceforth the IRS will try ta distinguish between long drawn out, chronic termite attacks devastating sudden assaults.

No deduction for the chronic, but deductions allowed for the lightning like visitations. The bureau's entomologists may have some tough decisions ahead. As for you, the taxpayer, if you spot a termite hanging around, get your tax accountant to slip him a note telling him and his crew cither to beat it or to start gnawing quick.

Thirdly there will be consumer clinics. These will handle individual cam, just as a hospital does. Those with wilt come in for advice. The AFL-C10 Community Service units will then dispatch the aggrieved to the Better Business Bureau or the District Attorney's office. The consumer counselor will follow through on the abuse of the individual whether or not the complainant is a union member.

If the Community Services wins this war on the two billion dollar a year sucker racket, we'll have some domestic peace in our time peace wherever there is tension cause of a strain on family budgets.

Worry Clinic has recurring dreams that involve savages and spears. She wonders what Or, Freud would say about them. So read this case carefully and scrapfcook it with tomorrow's follow-up, for gives you the facts about such sexual symbolism in dreams. W. CASE A 487: Helene aged 19, is a college coed who was in one of my psychology classes at Northwestern University.

"Dr. Crane, I often have wild dreams," she confessed during an interview in my office. "And I understand that Dr. Freud attached a lot of significance to dreams. "So what do you suppose he would say was the meaning of my dreams.

For example, 1 have one that is often repeated. It starts out with me swimming or lying on the beach in Hawaii or some other exotic place like CRANE that. "Soon some savages rush out and start chasing me. They are bronze-skinned and really athletic types of men. "1 run as fast as 1 can.

The has a long spear which he hurls at me. "And it strikes me, but, oddly it never seems to kill me or even hurt. "Does this kind of dream have any significance, according to Dr. 1 Dr. Freud Maligned Dr.

Freud has been unfairly criticized in America by people who failed to study him thoroughly. They have said that Freud reduces all problems to sex and tries to read some kind of sexual connotation into everything. But Dr. Freud admitted that self-preservation, including the desire for food, oxygen, health, was the Number One force in mankind. "But it doesn't cause many he acklcd, "whereas love or sex produces all sorts of neurotic That's why Dr.

Freud focussed primarily on sexual matters. For example, you readers know that you can get a cup of coffee and a doughnut at any restaurant at almost any hour of the day or night, without a formal or an official introduction. But manv taboos nnd regulations have been wrapped around the erotic appetite, so you must obey curfew hours and be introduced and avoid i i i sampling of erotic matters, etc. The erotic hunger ranks second to self- preservation, but in our moral society, we have erected many restrictions around it. Certain words are thus deemed impolite in social groups and certainly pre-marital sexual atiairs are bad and vetoed by alt church, PTA and other responsible groups.

Many very virtuous folks, even in their imaginations, thus tend to veer away from contemplation of sexual matters. But in our dreams there is a tendency for all of us to bark back to a basic unsatisfied hunger. Food Dreams If we are starving or dieting we may thus dream of Thanksgiving banquets. Jf we are without water for 24 hours, we may dream of lakes or springs or ice cold beverages. And we can visualize such desires without camouflaging me facts, for there is no social taboo erected against turkey or chicken or water.

But when a young person with an unsatisfied erotic hunger, dreams of its fulfillment, he (or she) may be conscience-stricken at facing the blunt facts. So he disguises them in a neat symbolical manner to avoid twinges from conscience. See tomorrow's follow-up of dream symbolism and sexual camouflage.

Why are tire losses going up year after year, in spite of modern ventioo methods? R. A. One reason is that fire losses are expressed in dollars (rather than in the number of things destroyed by fire), and they therefore reflect steadily rising prices. Destruction of a smalt house in 1900 might have meant fire loss of a few thousand dollars, while a modern house of similar area might run to several times as much. Population growth Is another factor; each year there are more houses and factories and other buildings to be protected from fire.

Merry-Go-Round WASHINGTON What Mac reported to Ike--Khrushchev by no means has complete control of the Kremlin, When in Moscow Prime Minister Macmillan noted that it took four hours to get his joint communique with Khrushchev okayed. During this time the limousines of several top Soviet officials were parked outside Khrushchev's i which probably meant the communique was not a one-man decision Also one reason Khrush- shchev frowned on a foreign ministers' conference is lack of confidence in his own for- minister, Andrei Macmillan got the impression Mr. is annoyed if not contemptuous of Gnmiyko and wouldn't trust him to negotiate even a trivial agreement with the West.

What came out of the Mac-Ike talks-You can call off any war over Berlin. This is not so much because of what Macmillan and Eisenhower talked about, but because of concessions made far from Camp David Khrushchev's astute press conference took the peace play away from Washington--at least in the eyes of most Europeans. On top of this, crusty, courageous Chancellor Adenauer privately agreed to two important compromises: 1, Semi-recognition of East Germany in return for a hard- and-fast Soviet guarantee of permanent access to West Berlin--provided it doesn't create a permanent division of Germany; 1, Agreement to hold off nuclear weapons for the West German Army. This is major concession and should go far to placate Moscow. Shivers in the Satellites The Russians and satellites have been both protesting and shivering over the prospect of atomic weapons in West German hands.

Their protests seem to be genuine. They base them on two world wars and terrific casualties West Germany has already received matador missiles. they are virtually useless without nuclear warheads. They can hit within half a mile of a target 600 miles but this is not close enough with conventional explosives The West Germans have also received F-84 fighter bombers from us, rigged to drop small atomic bombs. However, Adenauer has held off requesting the actual bombs and warheads.

It's now indicated he would be willing to forego these atomic weapons entirely--if he gets a reasonable settlement of the German problem. Personal peeve problems "fliere were some Ike advisers who warned him in advance that Macmillan had a swelled head, wanted to become the foremost leader of the Western World. With Dullw 71 and sick, and with Ike 68 and not well. Macmillan planned to forward as No. 1 statesman of the West, it was said The State Department, however, didn't buy this Furthermore, assurances cams from London shortly before Macmillan arrived that he planned no usurpation of leadership, didn't want to embarrass Ike with a discussion of thorny trade problems There were also reports in London that Dulles and Eisenhower were displeased with Macmillan and his visits to Moscow, Bonn, and Paris.

The State Department sent emphatic assurances this was not the case. These are some of the irritants which usually plague high level talks. Brown For President? Pat Brown, energetic new Democratic governor of California, dipped his toe gingerly into the presidential water last week, decided the water was warm, but not warm enough. He lunched with Sen. Jack Kennedy, a definite candidate and a fellow-Catholic; liked him, He breakfasted with Sen.

Lyndon Johnson, a probable candidate, liked him, concluded he was a loquacious charmer, not a good listener. He scored big with that most cynical of all audiences, the Gridiron Club, where new GOP leader Charlie Halleck fell flat on his face. Brown's conclusion at the end of four days in Washington: "I'll do my best to be a good governor of California and let the presidential chips fall where they may." Presidential Sweepstakes Don't be fooled by the switch of Jim Rowe, the old Roosevelt braintruster, from the Lyndon Johnson camp to the Hubert Humphrey camp. It doesn't mean that Senator Johnson should be counted out for the presidency. What it means is that Sen, Jack Kennedy Has become such a front runner that Johnson and Humphrey want to knock him down.

Once before, Jim Rowe, one of the ablest of Democrat advisers, was in on a big political cross-play. He worked for Averell man in 1952, though actually a Stevenson man, When the time was ripe he switched Averell's delegates to Adiai. Since then ht has been the adviser to Johnson--until this month, when he went to work for Humphrey. Rowe is a Catholic, and Humphrey needs Catholic support against Kennedy. But if the 1960 Democratic convention is deadlocked--as seems certain--then watch for a deal between Humphrey and Johnson with Rowe as the middle man.
