SELFISHNESS RULES
Roger Babson Discusses
Enployer- Worker Trends

in many industries since the war
properly belongs to labor. The ex-
tensive development and use OF
machines by American wo-kmen
enabled the United States to pro-
duce two-fifths of the worlds in
dustrial output prior to the war.
Yet, labor unrest, manifest not only
by strikes but also in practices to
cut down output while on the job,
reduced output per man-hour near
ly 43 PEI cent from 1889 to 1915!
High Productivity
In the long ago when the family
made its own clothing, provided it's
own food and built its own shelter,
mere survival demanded that each
member contribute his share OF
labor. Reduce our complex eco
nomic structure to the simple terms
of primitive society and the rea-
son for the current economic mud
die is crystal clear and the solu-
ton obvious. High productivity is
the only method of assuring our
selves of a superior standard OF
living.
Research should play a major
part in every employers program.
He must at all times keep abreast
of additional sources of materials,
new ideas and modern methods.
He must be ready and willing to
make Innovations which will pro-
vide employees with the methods
and tools necessary to produce
more, and better, goods. And he
must merit the respect and conf
dence of workers..
Money Plentiful
The pressing need for commod-
tiles and tools of all kinds promises
a golden ere for producers in the
months Immediately ahead. Long
and hard usage have rendered
much equipment beyond repair and
ready for the scrap pile. Money is
plentiful and people in a mood to
buy. Now is the time to produce
and release those necessities-yes,
The Wilmington morning star., 1946-08-12

and even Iuxuries which con-
tribute so much to the well-being
and happiness Of the people OF
the world.
Now. a word to consumers. We
have waited long and patiently
TO replace our WORKOUT materials;
but let us remember that some
14O. 900, 900 Other people in this
country also need to replenish Their
supplies. Hence, we should not
make all our purchases at one
time. We should buy only what we
need for use over a reasonable
period and give u neighbors a
chance to have a share in the pro-
ucts as they come into the market.
Watch Prices
We must remember, too, to watch
nrices. The immediate future WILL
be particularly critical. Potential
devastating initiation turks behind
the price we are willing to pay Tor
the things we buy. Therefore, be-
fore buying anything let us be
sure that it is necessary to have
if. We should take a l%ong-range out,
look. Prices paid now may well
determine the kind of country IN
which we shall live five years
hence!
Therefore, I plead with all -
employer, employee, consumer.
to pull together now in time OF
peace as we did in time OF war.
To the employer, I say, Nov IS
the time for you to prove your
self a true statesman, to labor,
Remember that you, too, must
share in the losses as well as l n
the gains in industry; and to the
consumer, Let your neighbor, as
we'll as yourself enjoy the fruits OF
production.

THE PURSUIT OF LOVE

By Nancy Milford. (Random
House; $780,
If this novel be judged on its plot,
it must be ranked as a poor perfor-
nance. For its plot-the amorous
adventures of young English
woman of titled family-is either SO
routine as to be soporific Or so
naively improbable as to be embar-
RAISING. But the cruel judgment
would be an irrelevant one for the
novel does not depend on the plot
for its quality. 1t is one of those
things in which the plot is of minor
Importance. It's background is its
real achievement and that is brought
off very well indeed.
The background is the society
against which the heroine lives, the
world Of the county family and the
London season. Nancy Milford evi-
IDENTIFY has no illusions about it. She
presents the Goth century British
Lud as no whit altered or improved
since the days of Squire Western,
while London society comes from
her pen as dowdy and timidly pro-
vincial. The tone of her attack is
delicate. She never makes frontal
assault. But the sum Of her side
strokes is sufficiently destructive.

written and quite interesting.
"Please, No Paregoric!" approaches

Two young men, return to their
boyhood environment, little New

safety in f1ight-set out on trip
about the country allegedly made
for the purpose of finding new from
tiers to break, but actually intended
to give the relatives time to find

The Indian Lad
They Brought Home
OUR SON PABLO

By AIUin and Darley Gordon.
(Whittlesey House, $275)
While making an educational Aim
of Mexican village, Alvin and
Darley Gordon became interested in
a young Tarascan Indian named
Pablo and invited him to return to
the United States and make his
home with them while attending the
University of California. This book
is their account of their association
with the youth.
To the reader. it will seem that
they had quite normal relationship
and that the young man conducted
himself in a way to be expected
from an intelligent being surrounded
by foreign culture which he was
anxious to understand. To the
Gordons, however, Pablo was plainly
project, rather than a human
being. They obviously have a fixa-
ton about members of other races
than their own and Pablo they re-
garded as sort of man from Mars,
whose every word and feeling, no
matter how natural, required bliss
full wonder from them. Their mar
rative about him is therefore pretty
dull reading. They report their dis
coveries of his thoughts much as
bad actors used to engage in elab-
crate Starts" but to the reader the
point of the start will be perfectly
plain almost from the beginning of
the account. There are, however,
'some very nice photographs in the
book.
