Lebanon Dally Nm, Lebanon, Thursday. Junt 3, 1965 Wants Dimes, Frwn PIH OM) frets, the President made no mention of any possible change In coin denominations. reason for cutting back on silver content of coins is that the Treasury is running out of silver. Johnson warned Congress that unless the mint stops using so much silver for coins, the government will run out of the metal in about three years. If this happened, he seld, the price of silver probably would rise to where would pay industry to melt down coins silver.

A reduction in silver content of coins was deemed necessary to keep billions of coins out of the melting pot. Sudden loss of so many coins could cripple the nation's commerce, administration officials said. Nickels do not contain silver and would continue to be made of copper-nickel alloy. Pennies still would be made of copper. There would be no reduction in silver in the $1 coin.

It would continue to be made of nine parts silver and one part copper a formula that has been in use for silver coins for 173 years. Johnson proposed that the new coins be placed in circulation some time next year. "I want to make it absolutely clear that these changes in our coinage will have no effect on the purchasing power of our coins," the President told Congress. The nation's silver stock, most of which is stored at West Point, N.Y., is now down to about 1 billion ounces. Last year the Treasury used 350 million ounces and, at that rate, the government could be expected to run out of silver in three more years.

The Treasury can't buy more silver to replenish its dwindling pile because there's none for! sale. The world uses about! twice as much silver every! year as Us silver mines produce. In fact, instead of buying silver, the Treasury has- to sell silver to industry in order to keep the price from rising to the "melting point," $1.38 an ounce, where it would pay users to melt down coins for their silver. The price is now at $1.29 an ounce. If most of the nation's coins saddenJy went into the melting pot, commerce would be crippled.

The government faced two choices. It could eliminate silver from coins altogether. Or it could reduce the amount of silver in coins. Mrs. Kate Carpenter Dies In G.S.

GOP Bloc Differs On Issues To Oppose Johnson By JACK BELL WASHINGTON (AP) Republicans hunting a formula to vitalize their minority role are running into difficulties in pinpointing issues on which to oppose President Johnson. GOP members of Congress made it apparent in a barrage of announcements Wednesday that they have wide differences of opinion among themselves on major international and domestic problems. Senate Republican Leader Everett M. Dirksen illustrated this cleavage when he was informed that a group of four House Republicans would go to Paris June 11 to inquire into the strained relations between the United States and De Gaulle's France.

"Are you kidding?" Dirksen asked reporters. "After all, we do have a State Department and we have a President who is supposed to conduct our foreign affairs." He added that such a delegation couid cause an international incfdent if a member talked out of turn at an overseas news conference. Dirksen was asked how he reconciled a statement by the GOP Policy Coordinating Committee that the Democratic administration "has yet to develop an adequate military program to counter the problem of Communist aggression in South Viet Nam" with general party support for the course Johnson is taking there. "There is nothing else to support at this point," he replied Rep. Gerald R.

Ford of Michigan, House minority leader, disclosed that the policy coordinating group made up of Senate and House leaders, governors, former presidential nominees and members of the national committee had tossed back to congressional Republicans the hot-potato issue of state laws banning the union shop. Republicans are split over Johnson's request for of the Taft-Hartley Act provision which permits states to ban the union shop. Under a union-shop contract negotiated by a union and'an employer, all employes covered by the contract must join the union. The Senate leader said the coordinating group hadn't acted on a 12-page task force report which generally endorsed a House GOP substitute for the administration's voting rights Republicans are of several minds about the course Johnson is following in the Dominican Republic, although their leaders have supported the President's intervention there. Significantly perhaps, Dirksen said this issue was not raised at all within the coordinating committee.

Business Mirror Small Likelihood Of Market Crash Repeat, Says L8J By SAM DAWSON AP Business News Analyst NEW YORK (AP) Could (he 1929 crash happen again? Federal Reserve Chairman William McChesney Martin sees today's boom psychology as having "disquieting similarities" with that of the 1920s. But the Johnson administration holds that there's small likelihood of a repeat performance if the Federal Reserve business and labor all will cooperate with government in keeping the economy on a one-way street to prosperity. This doctrine is called the new economics. It contends that the business cycle can be licked, or at least tamed, and that 1929 need never happen again. The Martin rattling of old memories sent shivers through U.S.

stock markets Tuesday and the London stock market Wednesday. Stock traders were alarmed that the smoldering dispute be tween administration econo mists and the money managers was coming out into the open. They also were aware that it was just three years ago that the stock market had its worst crash since 1929. It revived and prices early this May were at record highs. The very height of these prices makes some observers dizzy.

Businessmen are more inclined to concentrate on the evidence of continuing strength of the four-year-old economic upswing. They stress the brakes on booms and the cushions for downturns that have been developed since the 1929 crash. Bankers study the clash In economic and monetary think ing in Washington to glean clues as to the future course of interest rates and the recently noted trend toward tighter money and credit. The trends and the clash, If it becomes sharper can affect both the course of the domestic economy and the troubled international monetary situation. There are a number of things that make 1965 look like 1929.

But even Martin concedes there are many differences, too. The similarities: In both 1929 and 1965 government and business leaders were convinced that prosperity would last forever and that the business cycle was old hat. This was strengthened in both instances by long period of economic growth. In both years private debt was growing rapidly. In both years the money supply was expanding.

But-1965 is different from 1929 in many ways: Excesses of the stock-market, of-banking and under close supervision now, while in 1929 the sky was the limit. Wages have kept pace with corporate profits. And there is now a vastly expanded middle class with higher incomes and impressive liquid assets as well as debts. Wholesale prices are fairly stable now, while in 1929 they were declining. Business expansion of capacity now is being tailored much closer to consumer demands.

Social Security, unemployment benefits, dozens of government projects insure against the disastrous drop in private income that the 1929 crash triggered. And, as the 1962 stock market crash generally prosperity isn't as closely tied to the market as it was in 1929. The slock market still has great psychological hold on the public. But the public now takes the ups and downs of the market without panicking. SPACE PROGRAM WASHINGTON authorization of just under $5.2 billion to keep the ambitious U.S.

space program in high gear during the next fiscal year moves back to the House today. The Senate gave it top-heavy approval by a 79-4 vote late Wednesday. Included in the funds were another $242.1 million to continue the two-man Gemini program and $2,973,385,000 for the Apollo project aimed at landing astronauts on the moon by 1970. Senate changes -include a net increase of about $13 million. Assf.

Chrylser to Ford to and American Motors to Dissenters May Attempt To Oust Imbert SANTO DOMINGO (UPI) Diplomatic sources said today disgruntled members of Maj. Gen. Antonio Imbert Ban-era's junta regime may attempt to oust him from office.

Reports that Commodore Francisco Rivera Caminero, commander of the Dominican navy, already had attempted an anti-lmbert coup d'etat were denied Wednesday by Francisco J. Cardona, Imbert's Rican press secretary. The diplomats said Imbert's consent to inter-American neutralization of the Dominican "White House" had caused deep dissension within the junta. They said most of the high ranking military officers on Imbert's staff objected to the neutralization because they had hoped to use the executive mansion as a basis for attack on the rebels. The "White House," which junta forces wrested from the rebels during the fighting here, was cordoned off Wednesday by Brazilian troops of the inter American peace force.

A token force of Imbert's troops remained in the building as a symbol of his claim to the the demilitar ized zone'created by the Brazilians effectively isolated il from the" rebels holding adja cent areas.
