(and when you are there)
What an easy, efficient way to provide safety
and security around your home while you
are vacationing this summer. A mercury
vapor Nite-Liter stands guard and can dis-
courage prowlers by spreading light over
an area up to 100 yards in diameter for
just pennies a night. And it can help prevent
accidents and personal injuries, too, when
your family is at home. Community Public
Service Company will install the on-at-dusk,
off-at-dawn Nite-Liter on a tall pole, main-
tain it year around and furnish the electricity
it uses, all for just a few cents per night
No investment is necessary. Check into the
advantages of a Nite-Liter today and have
one installed before you leave your home
this summer.

bank employes might have to give up memberships
in local civic clubs, which are funded by the bank
because of the community services the clubs
provide. Or the bank employes might be forced to
dig into their pockets for the extra cash to be a
member of the Lions, Rotary or Kiwanis clubs, in
those situations where the dues were being paid by
their employers.
And after the banks, who will be next? The first
which relies on the Postal Service to do business, or
whose materials are shipped in interstate com-
merce? Or how about those whose products cross
state lines, or just the firm or individual who pays
income taxes? These are all forms of government
regulation. Comply or be penalized.
Every businessman in this day and age has felt
the increasingly heavy hand of the federal govern-
ment and its unregulated regulators. It has got to
stop somewhere, but the rulings continue to pour
out of the Washington regulation mill.
The importance of the clubs to the community
does not matter. They do not admit women to
membership, thereby offending the sensibilities of
small men in great places, who feel that we must all
become a homegenous mass under penalty of law.
You will note that the government did not tell the
banks and savings and loans that they could not pay
the expenses of their employes to belong to any
club. They are only prohibited from helping with
memberships to clubs which “discriminate.”
In the name of eliminating discrimination, the
government is moving more and more to take away
every individual’s right to associate with those
whom he chooses. For tax-supported organizations,
such as schools, there is some basis for this sort of
ruling.
But to enforce such an edict against a private
business just because it is in some measure
government regulated is the height of folly. If the
banks cannot pay the. costs for their employes to
belong to the clubs, is the next step a ruling that
bank employes are not allowed to belong, even at
their own expense, to any club that “discrim-
inates?” Can’t happen? Stranger things have come
from the bureaucracy.
A U S TI N--Be ware of
high-pressure telephone
salesmen peddling pesticides,
cautions Agriculture
Commissioner John C.
White.
Although no complaints
have been received of such
deceptive practices in Texas,
it’s a good idea to be on the
alert, White said.
“In eleven states, farmers
have been duped by salesmen
who claim, over the
telephone, that the pesticide
could be used with crops and
would provide three to six
years of weed control, and
the salesmen failed to
indicate that the product was
in diluted strength,” White
explained.
&
Treasury apparently has no objection to int,
wide-spread practice of banks and other businesses
of paying the costs of some employes to belong to
civic or private clubs when the management feels
that it is to the advantage of the firm to do so. The
Department just wants to decide from Washington
to which clubs a Texas employe can belong.
The bankers were probably an ideal target for the
government to use as a starting point in this
campaign. They will draw less sympathy from the
public than would some other businessmen.
Those who fail to at least sympathize, however,
will be missing the most crucial point.

Now we all know that the banks and savings and
loans are insured by the Federal government to
protect the depositor from the possible collapse of
the institution. All of them are also regulated in a
variety of other ways by the state and federal
governments.
According to the prevailing thinking of those kind
souls in Washington who know better than we how
to run our lives, these federal involvements in the
banks give the Treasury Department the authority to
make all sorts of decisions for the financial
institutions.
If interpreted in the strict form in which
bureaucrats normally interpret these things, this
ruling could mean, for instance, that your hometown
