hclal restrictions on the normal functiOning
OF the economy are permanent necessity
just as the drug addict drifts into abiect de-
pendence on DOPE Many of the politicians,
who always want more and more power for
powers own sake, encourage that kind of
thinking.
The second danger is that we will fall
for the fallacy that price controls are actual
ly cure for the disease that is initiation
where, actually, they treat only certain
symptoms and don't even do that very effec-
lively. The current uprOar over the meat
situation is a good example. The controllers
have tried, in effect, to repeal the natural
law OF supply and demand-and the result
is scarcity, growing black markets, and the
probability of falling production.
Mr.. Johnston was right-if we are to re-
main free, strong and progressive nation
price and wage controls must be abandoned
at the earliest possible time.

FIRST LIEN ON BUSINESS
The first lien on any business is wages.
The worker gets his off the tOp-befOre the
supphers, the tax collectors, or the investors.
II business goes broke, overdue bills for
labor are the first to be paid as the assets
are iquidated. Not until that charge is met
in full, can any other debtor get all or any
part OF what he has coming. These facts are
as obvious as day and highland that's one
reason we rarely think of them. All kinds of
obligations may be deferred, the owners may
get nothing on their inVeStment-but the
worker is always paid in full. This is as it
should be- The old saying that the labOrer is
worthy of his hire has literally found it's re-
Election in the law and in universal business
practice 1t is indicative of the place that
labor holds in our free enterprise system
under a representative form of government.
In most businesses, the payroll is the largest
single item of expense aside from the pur-
hase of materials and supplies-and much of
the money for those requirements winds up
IN pay envelopes all over the country Labor
in America gets more money than labor any
where else. 1t has far better living standards.
1t receives many valuable. benefits-unem-
plOyment compensation, pensions, old age
payments, sickness compensation, and so on.
No group has a greater stake in the Ameri-
can economy and the American system of
doing things.

New Chemicals Kill
Poison Ivy

Poison ivy on your place? Now
Is the time to so after it with
chemicals, says William H. Hem
derstjR, county agricultural agent
Chemicals are the most effective
when the ivy is in full leaf. Mr..
Henderson recommends three new
chemicals for killing the ivy.
Ammonium sulfamate is one of
the best. Use it as a spray. Mr..
Henderson suggests, 1916 ounces
of the powder to II gallon Of water.
Or use 1t dry with one part Of the
chemical to six parts Of sand. Ap-
ply the spray until the leaves are
wet but not dripping. Sprinkle the
dry mixture directly onto the
plants. The dry mixture is less
likely to injure young trees, or
ornamental shrubs nearby.
One treatment, 81 either spray or
dust, will kill the ivy in about two
weeks. Treat new growth that
shows up later just as soon as the
leaves are fully open.
Two. 4-D and 2, 4, 5. T may be
used to destroy poison ivy. Two,
4,5-T gives better results than q
4-D. says Mr. Henderson. In either
case second or even third treat
ments are usually necessary to get
a complete kill
A word of caution from Mr.. Hem
derson. These powerful chemicals
kill or iniure an hrOad-leaf plants.
They must be used very carefully
near gardens or on lawns where
there are valuable crops or orna-
mentals,

to balance the taxes and interest COSTS Moreover,
trees grow seven days week. including SUNDAYS

limit them to growing only eight hours day. nor
do they practice birth control" to prevent them
from multiplying. Their only enemies are fires

DON'T HOARD LAND
The above is not written for rich investors II
is just dangerous to hoard land as to hoard any,
thing else. Thus don't attempt to buy too much
land Too big family holdings might some dav be
divided and sold very cheaply by the IT, S. Govern
ment as has been done by several other Govern
ments. Or, there might be a graduated real estate
tax Increasing as the humber of acres increase
In fact it is wisest not to concentrate on any
form of investment. Don't get hipped on anything;
railroads, motors, steels, chemicals, department
stores or anything else Proper diversi6cation is
the first rule of successful investing Yes. Won can
even become land poor" by having too much land
that produces no income in the form of rents crops

This is a good time to reprint some re-
MARKS concerning economic controls that
were made several months ago by Economic
Stabilizer Eric Johnston in testimony given
before Congressional Joint committee.
4 must say right now," said Mr.. Johns
ton, that wage and price controls will not
be effective for long. It is essential that we
begin to cure the reasons why we have to
put wage and price controls into effect. The
main objective Of economic stabilization is
to secure stable dollar and by that we
mean, Of course, the stable purchasing power
Of the dollar
1T is essential that we preserve freedom
N this country, which means that we should
get rid Of wage and price controls at the

that we balance the budget, restore conf

of credit
There are two basic dangers in price and
other controls. One is that the people win

VIC VET SAYS

Many veterans of the Korean
campaign - both able-bodied and
disabled - are joining the ranks
of those who are entitled to GER
tain benefits, the Veterans Ad-
ministration disclosed today.
Ever since fighting started in
the Pacific theater of operations
in June 1850, Congress has made
more and more World War II
benefits available to the nations
newest crop of veterans.
AS an example, the VA pointed
out, disabled veterans now draw
ing compensation may get in or
the same program of vocational
rehabilitation originally set up
for their World War II buddies.
Commenting further, VA said:
eff they are disabled in combat
or on extra-hazardous duty, or
aggravated an old condition un-
der those conditions, they are
eligible for study or training, if
they need vocational rehabilita-
ton to overcome their handi,
caps"
Latest available figures show
that more than two hundred Kor-
can veterans over the nation al.
ready have applied for vocational
rehabilitation. In North Carolina,

passed hospital care for all veter-
ans so entitled. Of the hundreds

tails over the country, better than
