ANNUAL DINNER HELD
The annual New Year's
dinner was held on Jan. 1, 1975
in the United Methodist Church
annex. This dinner has been
held since 1902 and has only
missed one year -- 1918 when
the flu was so bad.
This year it was a lovely day
with some 170 attending. Many
were from Pawnee, Stiliwater
and Cushing. If one once
attends he tries very hard to
return the following year.
The united Methodist Church
was built in 1900 and in 1902 the
ladies who began serving these
dinners at first held them in the
IOOF Lodge Hall downtown.
Try to attend in 1976.
New
Judge Richard E. Romans
from Enid, was elected on
December 31, 1974, to be the
Presiding Judge for 1975 of
Division I of the Courtof
Appeals of the State of
Oklahoma. The Court of
Appeals has two divisions of
three judges each. Division I is
located at the State Capitol, and
Division II is located at Tulsa.
Each division operates indepen-
dently of the other.
The Court of Appeals handles
civil cases on appeal that are
assigned to the respective
divisions by the Oklahoma
Supreme Court. A decision of a
division of the Court, when
final, is not appealable to the
Supreme Court. However, such
decision may be reviewed by
the Supreme Court when a
majority of its justices direct
that certiorari be granted.
The backlog of civil cases on
appeal has been reduced
considerable since the Court of
Appeals became operative on
January 11, 1971.
Judge Richard E. Romang
practiced law for twenty-five
years during which time he
served twenty-two years as a
State Representative and State
Senator in the Oklahoma
Legislature from Garfield
County, before being elected to
the Court of Appeals from the
6th Congressional District.

Farm exports from the United
States have been making a
much bigger contribution to the
Nation's balance of payments
than before, according to Dr.
Houston Ward.
The U. S. balance of
payments makes a real differ-
ence to consumers. This
"balance of payments" is the
dollar difference between how
much this nation buys from
overseas and how much it sells
overseas.
To buy the things wanted
from overseas, the U.S. has to
sell overseas to get the money to
buy. It's the same as in your
personal finances; you have to
have an income before you can
buy. Nations have to sell to
buy. s
If you buy more than you
make, you go in debt. The more
debt you have, the shakier your
finances are. After awhile, your
credit isn't as good. The same
applies to the United States.
If the U.S. buys more
overseas than it sells, it has a
negative "balance of pay-
ments." If that gets too big, the
dollar gets "shaky" in the
international market.
After awhile, the dollar won't
buy as much overseas. And
foreign markets "lose faith" in
the value of the dollar.
When the value of the U.S.
imports is greater than the value
of the exports, the deficit saps
the strength of the U.S. dollar in
foreign markets.
As the deficit grows, the
value of the dollar weakens and
it takes more dollars to buy
foreign products. That creates
problems for the American
consumer.
A favorable balance of
payments makes more stable
retail prices for the American
consumer, says Dr. Houston
Ward, extension economist at
Oklahoma State University.
balance of payments deficit in

overseas farm sales reduced a
