INSTRUCTIVE TALKS
 GIVEN AT MEETING
 OF P-TALAST NIGHT

were made last evening by Mrs Scott Murphy and E. L. Keithahn at the meeting of the ent-Teacher Association, in the Juneau High School Auditorium.
 Mrs. Scott, speaking on the subject of Leadership Fellowship, stressed the fact that instruction of children in the qualities which will develop intelligent followers is one of the most important factors in the edu- cation of our youth today and is a challenge to both teachers and par ents.
 Tt is from the intelligent follow CTS our leaders will come." Mrs. Murphy told her audience, adding that it behooves both parents and teachers to teach youth that intelli- gent followers are individuals who ask questions and insist on an in- telligent understanding before &C., cepting a standard to follow. In- telligent followers will insist on in- telligent leaders.
 Leaders are those individuals who are interested in others and their welfare, as the welfare of others is the concern of the world today. A leader is one who makes others en- thusiastic about doing what he wants them to do for him, the speaker said. Leaders are not neces- sarily the man out in front, but the man who is the power behind the throne" who dictates the policies to be followed by the masses.
 Too often followers are imitators or dependents who follow certain way because there is something to be gotten out of it, she said. But a dependent is not necessarily an intelligent follower and it is this factor which must be met and over come in the youth of today.
 Speaking on Worthy Use of Leis- ure Time,' MT. Keithahn said unity of the family group, a comfortable and pleasant home large enough to provide individual sanctuaries for members of the family, workshop equipped with material and usable tools, are necessary to the develop ment of the worthy use of leisure time. The home can provide ade- quate constructive hobby work if the effort of parents and children is strong enough to follow up the de- sire, he said.
 The importance of the parents recognition of the child as an indivi- dual was stressed by MT. Keithahn. It is necessary for us to go back to a study of primitive society and it's solidarity of the family before we can understand present society.
 Group work and intelligent appli- cation of leisure time are integral factors in the development of the emotional stability of the child. The present war and it's ensuing ills are obstacles to it's development, but are difficulties which can be overcome. If, for one reason or another, parents cannot comply with the needs of the child, 1t is the duty of the community to provide the prop CT environment and inducements for the development of the happy, busy child. MT. Keithahn stated. The business and discussion period was followed by serving of refresh ments by the committee, which was headed by Mrs. D. G. Taylor, assist ed by Mrs. Chris Bailey. Mrs. Walter Kleveno, Mrs. A. B. Phillips. Mrs James Ryan and Miss Marian Lange.

zen. EISENHOWER is indeed
- great commander, and in a sense
to which his own graciousness and
humility in moment of great per.
sonal triumph attest.
He has deep affection for the
men who bore the brunt of the battle,
respect for them and profound awe
of the spirit which attended them in
their ordeal of fire and suffering,
pain and death.
He wants America to KNOW
what these boys did.
His greatest feeling of personal
pride and honor is in being selected
to SPEAK for them, and to be dele
gated by Congress and the American
people to receive the honor intended
for them and Ito serve as your agent
in conveying it to them. "
Gen. Eisenhower, in addition to
being great commander, is a proud
and appreciative Am merican = in

seen displayed by American fighting
men on the battlefelds, and humbled

America has been providentially

A MERICA has given grand
home coming to very great
military commander and very won.
derful man.
Gen. Dwight D. Eisenhower has
amply and unquestionably proved
himself to be master of military
strategy and science, superb or
ganizer of the men and machines of
modern warfare.
But he has also proved himself
the possessor of other and better and
rarer human qualities.
LIS first words on the occasion of
IA his home coming personal
homage and praise were pressed
upon him, we're:
eve aIUays got Uhot Ue needed
when Ue sent for it. For that | bring
you the thanks of three million
fighting men,"
When he went before the Con-.
gress of the United States to make
his report on the victory in Europe,
he called himself what he earnestly
and sincerely believes himself to be
the REPRESENTATIVE of those
three million American fighting men.
Not to him but to THEM, he told
Congress, is due America s tribute
for military victory"
He did not speak to Congress first
of victories, but of the unsung and
unknown and war-weary American
boys whe earned your commenda-
tion and should properly be here to
receive it,
Let history tell the story of the
CAMPAIGNS of the European con.
fiict, said Gen. Eisenhower.
What he was bursting with was
the warm and brave human story of
his boys.
81 think you Uant from me some
brief estimate of the quality of the
sons, relatives and friends you and
all America hoUe sent to war," he
said.

THE sixth ingredient that made for
Il national economic greatness was a
recognition, in these times, of increasing
use of mechanical energy and better tools,
that our society was becoming more and
more specialized, that we were becoming
a nation of production specialists, and
that we lived by trading our specialtles
for the specialties of the other workers,
farmers and service employees.
Some men in a whole years work only
made such simple items as screws or nuts
or bolts, and traded them through the
money system, for the whole variety and
diversity of goods needed for an abundant
family budget
So under these conditions of special
izatIon we have to understand, to an m
creasing extent, the problem of economic
balance-equilibrium. 1t became lncreas-
ingly important to us to know, Tor eX-
ample. that the farm groups who were the
customers of the factory groups, were IN
balanced income relationships so they
could give employment to one another
through exchanging their years labor.
Nowadays we are talking about full en-
ployment. and assuming that somehow or
another that employment comes out OF the
sky, or as a special gift of government.
WE OVERLOOK the basic fact that
w the customer provides the employ
ment, and that the businessman IS only
the intermediary, and that he employs
labor, tools and materials when he has
orders on hand or IN prospect which
justify him in carrying on operations.
In this time of great transition and
intense change, there is an obligation on
The part of att of us not To push forward
our prejudices. not to push forward group
or class interests, but To put our shoul-
doctrine of the harmony of interests of
all groups, and try 10 appreciate the de-
STABILITY of understanding the totality
whole, the functions Of dach part, and
the contribution that each\ ma beSNto ma
tional wellbeing.
If we do this, and If we pursue in tins
transitional period, good Will and spirit
of harmony-and our new President seems
10 be desrous 10 achieve as much OF II as
he can-then there is hope for America,
because though the cost Of the war has
been colossal not only in financial sense,
but also in the sense Of depicting ire
placeable raw materials say in spite of
those handlcaps, in spite of the terrible
loss Of life, in spite Of the manning Of
men and the human tragedies in many
families say that if We preserve the
system and preserve our respect and con-
fdence as free men, then We can 90 up
ward and onward again. Then we can say
again to the returning veterans, America
is once more the land Of opportunity

1 WANT to get on TO the fourth lngredi-
Il ent in our economic expansion, de-
velopment and growth. We were rather
unsophsticated in our economic thinking.
We clung to a number of primitive no.
tons | kind of like the new President.
President Truman. He is a plain guy
from Missouri, and he seems to be little
bit primitive in his thinking, He reminds
me of MONTAIGNE, WHO ONCE SAID
HE WAS VERY FOND OF THE
FRENCH PEASANTS BECAUSE THEY
HADN'T BEEN EDUCATED SUFEI-
GENTLY TO REASON INCORRECTLY.
So during this early developmental era
we had one primitive notion which was to
the effect that workers, farmers and
their families should be able to enjoy each
year most of the fruits of their labor
That meant not too many diversions
into other channels; it meant, among
other things, that we had to keep the
cost of government low, and hence taxes
within bounds, and we did succeed to an
extent
At the beginning of the first world
war our total federal debt was only oil
lion dollars. Think of that, OF course
we do those things now in bigger, if
AAON bNNNOi,
"LELL. during wartime We -have~bee
w on an economic detour We have
turned away from our normal objective
of using our productive facilities to pro-
duce better lives for 35000,000 American
families Instead our goal has been-and
properly in wartime-to produce ways
and means to kill and MAIN the enemy.
Thus, under those abnormal and ephem-
eral conditions, we have diverted from
workers, farmers and other producers
some so per cent of all goods and services
produced into channels of government for
the purpose of waging war. And | say
that is all right.
But as long as We divert 60 per cent
away from the producers, we are not
using our productive facilities for the
peacetime function of raising family living
standards. So let's be clear in our minds;
the fact is we are not in boom now, not
in normal period, not in period of
great prosperity, but in period of diver
sion and detOur, and the main question is
whether we will have the wit and sense te
know that il is an abnormal period and
get back on the main highway as soon as
ii is feasible TO do so.
