six-passenger Slipstream sedan
added TO their 1871 list. The
new car is offered in both the

dor 600, lowest price lines. It
is said TO be the first car in
the field in this styling.
The Slipstream model has the
long. flowing fast back" with
a maximum of interior head
room and visibility. Accomplish
ment of this feat is credited 10
the cars new construction prin-
ciple. the Untitled process
which increases room and
strength while eliminating
weight.
Charles Abbott. head Of the
Nash Detroit Company, stated
135 per cent more Nashes were
sold in the Detroit area in Janu-
airy than a year ago. With the
addition of the Slipstream model.
he said he expected the sales
would mount for the first quar-
ter of 1941.

Equitable Life Continues
Humanized Annual Report

to every dollar of premium in
come u cents as earnings on
the society's investments. The
report would have been more
meaningful if members had been
reminded that in the previous
year such earnings amounted to
28 cents.
In the text the report ex-
planned that in this prolonged
period of falling wages on CAPT.
tai. which has been raising the
net cost of life insurance, there
has been a partial Offset in
favorable experience in the rate
of mortality of members and in
operating economies.
The company reveals:
"Your society's mortality ex-
perience was favorable I'm 1910,
although slightly higher than In
1899. With operating expenses
continuing under strict budget

was able to effect new econo-
mics last year. The earnings
rate on Its assets, on the other
hand. declined again from 1888
per cent to 1927 per cent. The
lower return on its investments
reflects the decline in general

Report

The 1910 humanized report of
the insurance company embodies
many of the characteristics of
the 1899 document, which l
lauded a year ago. To my taste.
the 1889 report was more digni-
fled in appearance. and more
readily understandable to the
lay reader. II singled out signifi-
cant points for highlighting and
emphasis. This time too much of
the routine technique of con-
ventional copywriters and illus
traitors have been permitted to
blur the basic idea of clarifica-
rion. l think that the society has
gone too far in assuming that its
members are attuned primarily
TO pictures. rather than TO SIM
plified figures.
Also. since the purpose of the
effort is TO inform policyholders.
i think that the society has over
looked an opportunity to achieve
the fruits of continuity through
comparing the figures of this
year and last. Unless the fig
ures are related to something
else, they are not meaningful.

Are YOU Driving
A Stolen Au+o7
Article Tells Why

Are you driving a stolen auto
mobile?
This question will occur to
many after they have read John
Robbers article in the March
issue of American Mercury.
Kobler states that if you are a
regular used car buyer, the
chances that you have acquired
hot" car are roughly in 100.
If you own a late model one.
Kobler figures your chances of
having it stolen are double that.
What makes the stolen car in
dustry well nigh impossible TO
curb. says Kobler, is the GUS
toner himself. through sheer
stupidity or greed. The average
owner is slap-happy careless.
He points out that hot car gangs
never steal Unfortunately but
keep abreast of fashions in autos
and can deliver on order.
The authors conclusions are
that a buyer whose conscience
and brains are both functioning
normally can rarely be stuck
with a hot car. Take plenty of
time TO investigate before you
buy and pay with a check. be-
cause crooks don't like checks.

Scientific Laws

Another New Yorker asks:
IF economics Is a science, a
natural law must govern the
distribution of income to the
four factors of production, labor,
capital. enterprise, and land.
But what about lande II is all
owned. and the supply can't be
increased by production"
Answer: As a scientist. I be-
lieve that scientific laws do gov
ern the distribution of income,
IN the sense that fundamental
tendencies exist These tenden-
cies, however, may be tempo
rarlly counteracted by unwise
legislation or other human ar
rangements. A business monop-
oily may exact profits that are
more than sufficient TO compen-
safe and reward enterprise. A
trade union may for a time jack
wages up above the true value
OF the laborerS services.
Economic science merely en-
ables us 10 find out approx
mately what the services of the
various factors of production are
really worth under competition.
That is why competition is so
important.
Land does have pcculiarities:
but its being owned need make
no difference in either its scare
lty or in the share il gets in
distribution. While we can't
produce much new land. VIC can
greatly increase the production
on existing land.

doubtless the sponsors of this

such strangfulatory, dictatorial
power.
To enforce any such law
would mean. of course, the crea-
ton of one more body of tax
eaters. II would mean one more
step towards concentration of
the power of life or death over
investor -owne d, employment
giving enterprises nee the
government could annihilate any
company by simply refusing TO
grant il a charter 10 continue

1t would mean still further
swelling of congestion at Wash
ington. still more spending of the
public's money for the erection
of quarters for the new army of
employees necessary to enforce
ment.

Professor ~ tcononnes. ~ '. '"''fs'N
A Chicago reader asks:
Would war dictatorship

industry he taken over and In

Answer: II we were drawn
into war. and dictatorship were
set up. it might or might not
be socialistic. That would de-
pend upon the ideas held by the
dictator. In war time, there has

unless the state abolishes private
property in factories, and dis
tributes income 10 the people

Often il does a few which are
essential to war: but not all.

Social PLANNING

New York City asks:
isn't social planning under a
dictator more scientific than
democracy"
Answer: No. indeed. There
is more uniformity of action
brought about through regimen
tation. But that represents CO.
ercion, and coercion is not sci
entlfiC.
There may be more prompt
action, one way or another: and
a dictatorship can do things
quickly or in a sweeping man
ner. But it may do bad things
as we'll as good; and its mis-
takes are big ones. The ways
Of science are not the ways of

employ scientists in a scientific
capacity. They pick men who
