Auto
Used Car Market
Still Ear Behind
1875 on Prices

The current. market on used
cars has a long way 10 60 be-
fore it approaches the runaway
market of 1897, according to a
survey just completed by the
National Automobile Dealers
Association. In 1887 many used
cars were bringing Is per cent
above, normal prices while now
the market is barely 2 per cent
over normal.
The MAZDA study indicates
that price advances are not far
off. however.
The present tendency, the sur
vey shows. is different from the
1887 market. At that time, the
pressure was from the bottom.

Earned Reserve
Pension Plans
BY LEWIS HANEY

Professor Of EcoSonlies. \. \. Uniwrsit
A Chicago reader asks
why do you attack pensions
The national government pen
Sions the postal clerks. the rail
roads pension their help. and
most states )pensicn the Judges
Of their higher courts. shouldn't
we either abolish all pensions
60 the privileged classes, or give
pensions to everybody who
passes a certain age"
Answer: l DO not oppose all
pensions.
There are three general kinds
Of pension: One Is merely a
part Of a workers current pay
withheld by the employer or
government in order 60 insure
saving by the individual, as IN
the case of railway employees.
The pension in this case Is re-
lated 10 the productivity and
earnings of the individual, Prop
erly speaking, this means a
compulsory reserve for old age.
Another kind Of pension IS
given as a reward for special
services, as in the case OF our
soldiers. II honestly admins
tered. pensions may be justified
tn individuals who render dis
tinguiShed services 10 society,
but who, while they are active,
can not be paid on the basis
of his productivity.
A third kind of pension may
be a fat sum given 10 every
body. regardless Of what he does
or has done to deserve IL This
kind Of pension is difficult TO
Justify except as minimum
sum required for subsistence.
There is absolutely no sense in
pensioning everybody, merely
because he or she has reached
a certain age. unless the amount
Of the pension Is limited 10
subsistence. Even that is liable
to abuse if il gets into politics.
Needless TO say, no one should
advocate pensions 10 privileged
classes. TO be paid on the basis
of privilege.

Shying Away

In the resultant compromise
Il has been provided that COM
mitteeS from various industries
will consult with the emergency
economic officials ~ Washing
ton and advise them concerning
prioritieS, price fixing and SINH
lar problems But apparently
these committees will have to
work with two agencies, with
the office of production man.

and with the office of price adj
ministration and civilian supply
dealing with prices and other
matters.
There is still a strong impulse

Professors to Study

More than 20 college profess
sors and instructors will spend
their Summer vacations at the
East Hartford. Conn. plant of
the Pratt & Whitney Co. TO see
at first hand the problem OF the
aircraft industry. The faculty
members will come from widely
scattered points as Brown and
Texas A. and M.
The visiting educators will ac-
tually work on production and
engineering problems in the
various departments. according
10 their individual interests. In
this way the gap between theory
and practice will be bridged.

Two DeSoto DeaIerships

Ground has been broken here
for two large De Soto dealer
ships to be operated in associa-
ton with Louis Rose Company.
One will be known as the Peter
j. Platte, Inc, and will be
headed by the former Ford
dealer who at one time was
known as the largest in the
world. His building is being
built at Van Dyke road and
Outer drive and is expected to
be ready by August Is.
The other will be the Glenn
Walker, Inc, at East Warren
avenue near Conner highway.

Yachts Chartered

I was told the other day that
chartering Of yachts by others
h a become unprecedentedly
dormant. but that more than
one labor leader had engaged
yachts AZ fancy figures.
Writes one reader:
Ten or twenty years ago
corporations could do as they
pleased and make an accounting
as they pleased. but that Is All
changed. Il there any real
reason why unions should not
also make an accounting Of all
their funds:
II am quite sure that the
rank and file OF labor unions
would be glad to know where
their money goes.
"Should not n law be passed 3"
What excuse can Congress
plead for not treating labor
unions exactly as other organi-
cations are treated!
That Washington has 10
fixed labor policy is revealed
anew by the fact that on the
day that the National Mediation
Board recommended that Beth
lehem Steel accept the closed
shop in its San Francisco ship
yard. the House military affairs
committee urged legislation to
guarantee the open shop in all
defense industries.
Since the nation is confronted
with an unlimited emergency.
should labor be permitted to
run wild?

On Money Issue

WASHINGTON. June "a. 49,
Strong bipartisan opposition con-
tinued TO develop today in the
House banking committee to a
proposal by Chairman Mariner
s. Eccles of the Federal Reserve
Board 10 continue power of the
Federal Reserve banks TO issue
currency against government OBJ
legations without any gold back
irg.
Existing authority expires June
30. Eccles conceded at hearings
that the authority had not been
used since 1888, but he warned:
There is no assurance i'm
these times. like the present
against monetary initiation and
conditions might change rap
idly"
Rep. Jesse WoIcott tR) of
Michigan and Rep. Wright Pat
man CD of Texas contended that
Eccles, who in January recon-
mended Congress to reject extern
sion of the Presidents dollar de-
valuation authority because of its
potential inflationary threat, was
inconsistent.
Originally the law to permit
issuance of bank notes against
government obligations was en-
acted TO aseacredit and 10 initiate
the currency. wolcott commended
He said the extension of the law
was unjustified.

Pete Goddard
Is Little But
Powerful

Durham. Oct. 20.-There has been
m.uv a story written about good
NTH, men in practically every
branch OF athletic, and the game of
football mas mad It's share of mighty
mites.
This is the story Of Dukes Tiny
Titan"-thc story of John Erwin
Goddard. who plays right guard for
Wallace Wadc's Blue Devils of the
sridIron.
To footballs fandom, he is not
known as John Erwin" Somewhere
long the line. he has picked up the
nickname Pete. And he will go
nto Dukes sporting annals as Pete
Goddard. the little man with the
zig fighting heart.
Pete came to Duke from Rocky
Mount. He has never been an out
standing football player and you
seldom see his name in the head
lines. But the Duke coaches Will
tell vou that this little blond senior
has meant 2 lot to the Big Blue line
this fall-that he is due his share
IF credit for Dukes unbeaten stand
ing to date.
Soaking wet. Pete Goddard weighs
1863 pounds-a small man in any
body's forward wall. He is only 5
feet 10 inches tall. But he's the
kind of a kid that plays the game
for keeps. He never lets up as long
as he's in there. What he lacks j
physical stature, he makes up for
grit, determination and fight. It's
called intestinal fortitude in political
circles.
He has given his best in ali four
of Dukes victories this fall. His
greatest effort. however. came in LIST
y ek's bruising game with the Col
gate Red Riders. The Blue Devils
triumphed in that game becase they
cot the jump in the line when the
Raiders had set up adequate defenses
against passing and end sweeps.
And Pet threw all Of his 1863 pounds
into the task against Colgate for
wards, Which-practically to the
man-outWeighed him 40 pounds.
