Sears Executive Calls
For Free Enterprise
Within Business i
By Donald B. HodIey

Businessmen cannot preserve
free enterprise as an economic
system unless there is more free
enterprise in their own organiza-
tions, James c. Worthy, person.
mel executive of Sears. Roebuck g.
Co, warned here yesterday.
Mr.. Worthy addressed the an
nual membership luncheon of the
Merchants and Manufacturers
Association in the Hotel Statler.
Many businesses closely re-
semble the authoritarian state in
the snese that all directions. all
thinking. and all authority tends
to flow from the top down." he
said
Under a mechanistic or engi-
neerlng concept of business organ
ization. employees and executives
alike become mere parts of a
Smooth-working machine, he de-
clared
One supremely important re-
suit, he said. has been to DESTROY
the meaning of the job for the
Workers-the meaning, that is. in
all terms except the pay envelope.
Undermines Confidence
1T has had the effect of seri-
ously undermining the confidence
OF workers in management: and
because they are restless and dis
contended, they are easily subject
to strong leadership which NAV
arise in opposition to manage
ment.
1T is significant to note the
close affinity between the welfare
state, managerial paternalism and
certain elements of trade union
ism. Each is distinctly authori-
tartan.
People are seen as the hewers
OF wood or casters of ballots: OBJ
jects to be enticed, cajoled or if
necessary coerced into serving the
needs of authority.
I'VE must develop circumstan-
ces which will give to employees
at all levels a greater sense of per-
sonal participation, a greater sense
OF belonging. a greater sense of
dignity and recognition for their
worth as individuals"
Mr.. Worthy, who is assistant to
the vice president in charge of
personnel relations for Sears, was
introduced by Hugh K. Duffield,
Washington area manager for
Sears and general chairman for
the dinner.

SCHOLASTIC RoTo PREvIEw

Teen-agers get most Of the take"
in a three-quarters-o billion dol

ture story in the April Scholastic
ROta which will be distributed Fri
day, May 9th. Pictures tell the dos
and don't Of baby sitting so that
high schOolers may earn their
share of the colossal revenue.
The essiOnal Children's
School tailor makes study hours
for teen-age professional dances,
singers and actors who have to
squeeze in their class-time with
rehearsaIs- and performances. SchO-
lastic ROto visits the school in its
cover story.
April is the month when Ameri-
cans by the million thrill to the
call of batter up!" Scholastic ROto
gets into the swing of spring with
some pictorial browsing in the mu-
scum that honors baseball, it's
heroes and it's birthplace.
Bonnie Rogers is a typical high
school student who is pictured in
the April ROtO while getting a big
laugh out of a class session. The
laugh has something to do with
what Bonnie is listening to, but see
the full details in your copy of

PRIMARIES TO Be HELD
lN SCHOOL ON MAY 18TH

Thursday, May 18th, the Demo-
cratic and Republican primary cleo
.tiOns will take place in Milford
High School. Recently all those
students interested in the demo-
cratic processes registered with the
party Of their preference. A thing
of interest that was learned as a
result of this registration was that
the Democrats are in the majority
in the school.
On the day of the primaries both
the Democratic and Republican
polls will be located in the lobby
Of the first floor of the high school
building. These polls will be open
between S:45 a. m. and 300 D. M,
and will each be attended by one
party worker during that entire
period including the lunch hour.
Those students who have registered
will be privileged to cast their vote
at their party polls when they have
the opportunity to do so. that is,
within the time limits mentioned
above.
1t is hoped that all students will
exhibit their civic interest and pa
triotic duty by casting their ballot
and helping the MHS NEWS in this
experiment in Democracy In Ac-
ton.

And then, of course, there is the
wonderful Cadillac name-which never
loses its significance, no matter how old
the car which bears it. Year for year and
age for age, a Cadillac is always aside
and apart from other cars.
1t is not unusual at all for a Cadillac to
pass through four or FIVE or even six
different families each one owning it
with pride and driving it with pleasure.
Think of this when you buy your next
car. If you get Cadillac-there can be
no doubt that others will be eager to own
it when it has served you the normal span.
Why not come in-and see and drive
this wonderful car? We'd be happy to
welcome you any time.
Milford chronicle., 1952-05-09
It Will BE in Demand When
It's 10 Years Oldl

Take a new Cadillac home with you
use it with common prudence and give it
reasonable service and care
and ten years from today, there
should be many, many people anxious to
drive it and call it their own!
The soundness of this prediction is
attested on used car lots throughout
America. Every day, eager buyers are
coming into possession of Cadillacs built
before the war-and are doing so with
pride and anticipation.
There are many and vital reasons for
this enduring value of Cadillac car.
First, of course, is quality. Through
the years, Cadillac cars have been built
to the highest standard it is practical to
enforce in the production of a motor car.
Milford chronicle., 1952-05-09

The watchword, the goal and the
inspiration of those who design and build
for Cadillac are one and the same-how
good and hOSg enduring can this car be made?
Year in and year out, the search for
improvement goes relentlessly ahead.
Small wonder that the car keeps its
youth and its performance-far, far
beyond the normal span.
And then there is its sound and endur-
ing beauty. Cadillac styling is a deuelop-
ment-with continuous improvement and
refinement. Older CadillacS, of course, are
not to be mistaken for the current ones;
but, regardless of age, they are sill
Cadihlac5-and are distinguished and
dignifed in their own individual rights.
