Taking Our Benefits
For Granted Is Seen
AS Dangerous Today

Many people today are taking
for granted the products and bene-
fits" OF the American industrial
system while at the same time they
"blandly subscribe to bOotstrap
economies and accept as real the
shining goldbricks of the COllec-
twist pitchmen."
This paradox was presented to
a national conference OF 500 ~eXecu-
tives last week by HOlcombe
ParkeS. vice president in charge
OF public relations of the National
Association of Manufacturers. who
added:
THE simple fact that our Ameri-
can-style processes of finance.
production, distribution and sell
ing actually produce more good
for more people than does any
other set of processes ever devised
by man, has never been planted
firmly in the minds Of our people,
at least not to the extent that It
becomes an ever-present and ac<
tive part of the public conscious
ness"
There are just as many "fanati-
cal COllectivists" in America today
