AT Chamber Institute

II the Government would raise
salaries and improve working condi-

brains" in solving its problems here
and abroad, the United States Junior
Chamber of Commerce Eastern In
stitute was told last night.
/ The speaker, Selden F. Waldo,
president of the national Junior
Chamber, addressed the institute at
a banquet in the Burlington Hotel
which closed an all-day session dur
Il ing which members familiarized
themselves with fundamentals of
Junior Chamber operation.
America needs its best brains to-
day." Mr.. Waldo said, "to deal with
the great problems confronting the
Nation domestically and interna-
tionally. But because Government.
service is not as attractive as it
should be, these brains are in private
industry and professions
Besides low salaries, Mr.. Waldo
said Government service is also un-
attractive because administration Is
inadequate and because the prestige
OF official positions is declining.
Even those conscientious public
servants who try to make contri-
button are held up to ridicule," he
commented, declaring that it is i'm
possible to solve or constructively
debate important issues as long as
there was tendency toward name
