Michigan State
Continues In
Nations S Lead
BY RIP WATSON

NEW YORK R-Mighty Mich
gan State, with three complete
backfields and a 35-points- a-game
offense, continues to roll along as
the No. / team in the land.
Nne the third straight week,
Coach Biggie Munn's monsters
have been voted best in the land
by 121 Sportswriters and broad
casters in the Associated Press
poll. Except for the second week
VI the poll when Wisconsin held
way briefly, Michigan State has
dominated the poll ever since the
preseason voting.
Saturdays 34-7 humping of pre-
yiously undefeated Penn State
brought the Spartans SO first-place
votes and a total of 1,042 points on
a basis of 10 for first, nine for
second and so on down the line.
Despite Michigan States impress
sive game, second-place Maryland
crept little closer on the strength
of its 34-6 win over Louisiana
State. The Terrapins, who traileG
Michigan State by so votes last
week, cut the margin to 26 as they
piled up 80 first-place votes and
1,016 points.
Oklahoma, even more potent
extensively than Michigan State
with an average of AZ points a
game, also closed some ground but
stayed in third place with 20 first
place votes and $50 points.
Behind the Big Three we're
Georgia Tech, Southern California,
Duke and UCLA, all closely
bunched, with three newcomers to
the top 10 filling the last three
places-Purdue, Kansas and Villa
nova.
Georgia Tech moved up one
place after hopping Vanderbilt,
800, while use jumped two places
thanks to the 100 upset of Cali
fornia, last weeks No. 4 team. The
defeat knocked California down to
11th.

TUESDAYS REPUBLICAN SWEEP

The beginning of the end of the New
Deal-Fair Deal philosophy of government
began last Tuesday That the voters of our
great Nation were disguested with Truman
ism, socialism and all the other "isms" which
have taken root during the past twenty years
was demonstrated at the polls this week. And
it was done in no uncertain manner Last
reports indicate that the Republicans will
control both branches of Congress. The mar
row margin Of control can conceivably re-
suit in difficulty in party control over the
members. But we are of the opinion that
men like Senator Byrd of Virginia and
others of his stature in the Senate will vote
with the Republicans on vital issues con-
corning the good of our country. President
elect Eisenhower has had experience in rec
Onciling divergent views of administration
In the armed forces. The knowledge should
stand him in good stead as he works with
Congress. Nationally it is certain that the
voters had had enough of the scandals, mis-
management and inefficiency in Washington
1t will be refreshing to see them depart from
the National scene.
Here in Delaware the reign of Carvel-
Mcdowell, Bayard, Cannon and company
nears an end. 1t has been one which brought
disgust to Delawareans of all political affili-
alton. The State victory of the Republican
candidates was made possible by the large
numbers of thinking Democrats who desert
ed their party to vote for John J. Williams
for United States Senator and J. Caleb BOggs
for Governor. By their actions on Tuesday
they have re-created respect for the Cover
nOrship ard placed in office an outstanding
public servant who deserved the office. We
predict that under Governor BOggs, citizens
of all political affiliation Will be given a fair
hearing and welcome at the Governors office
In the Legislative Building in Dover. We
have no idea who he will name for Secretary
OF State; but knowing Gale BOggs well, we
will hazard the prediction that he will be a
man of whom all Delawareans may be proud.
We look forward to the appointment of eff
cient administration aids as the Republicans
gain control of the many offices and COM
missions which make up our State Govern
ment. But, remember, many of these groups
will remain under Democratic party control
for months to come. 1t will take the expi-
ration OF terms of many now serving before
they are replaced by Republicans.
Delaware voters have voted for efficient
state administration. We believe that they
will get it under Gale BOggs.

INITIATION IS ROBBERY

Hundreds of years ago, despOts debased
their money by clipping coins or increasing
the amount Of alloy used in mining.
Nowadays governments do it more easily.
by creating so much ''credit money! or print
ing so many banknOtes that the currency
loses part Of it's value. That's initiation.
Our initiation has cut the 1862 dollar to
50 cents as compared with its 1889 value
a larger cGp'that any medieval despOt would
have dared to make in 13-year period.
What with initiation and Federal taxes,
you and your wife and two children were as
we'll off with $4,000 income in 1889 as with
$4,189 in 1852; with $4,000 in 1889 as with
S9,ll8 today. You'd have to make more than
a million in 1852 to get for your family the
equivalent of 100000 in 1889.
Initiation rObs you just as medieval king
robbed his people when he sat in his tower
filing the edges or gold coins into dust for
his private hoard

sent to Milford to fish on the Mis-

Hayes was to varify that he was
there and to also stir up a little
trouble about fishing in town be-
ing against the law, etc. It was
tun seeng Jim afser all these years.
He has just returned from an Air

tainly made our welcome back

too, might add.
Another nice day we have had
since arriving home occurred this
past Sunday afternoon. We accom-
panied Mr.. and Mrs. Frank r. Grier
and Mr.. and Mrs. Stem Adkins of
LeWes, up to the Mapledale Country
CLUB, where we were all guests Of
U. S. Senator and Mrs. Allan Frear.
The Frear's had invited some 20
people up to be with and honor
Hayes uncle, J. Edward Murphy.
Uncle Ed has just recently been
elected National Regent (or Presi-
dent) Of the Sigma Nu Fraternity.
which is certainly quite an honor
and one that all of his fraternity
brothers at Delaware are quite
proud of. 1t was nice for HAYES and
me to finally meet all these people
and to at last connect their faces
with their names, long ago famili-
ar to us.
Last Friday night we were among
those who had fun in the Rob
Lingo's newly decorated cellar. out

the Jim Cresson's eveyone there
had a relative along, other than
their spouse I mean. There were
the two Grier brothers, Logan and

and his sister, Sarah Kirby and
Ted Townsend and me. That's what
is so wonderful about Milford, YOU
either know or you are related to
almost everyone in town.
This time next week HAYES will
probably be on an Air Force plane
back to Houston, Texas, and will
get our car all set for our Journey
west. Lynne, Dawn and I will leave
on the night Of the 14th from Wash
ington, D. c., and will use our re-

Know we can't all be pleased
about yesterdays election, but af-
ter all our choice of differences is
what makes our United States a
democracy.
Until next week.

PHONY CURE

1t IS now evident that price control is on
its way out, though the framework of a con-
troll system will be kept on the books for
some time to come. More and more commOdi-
ties are being completely decontrolled The
rules and regulations affecting manufacturers
and merchants are being relaxed and modi-
fled. The whole OPS organization is drawing
IN its horns, and its staff has been much re-
duced in size.
A number Of reasons are responsible for
this. For one thing, many commodity prices
are belOW-celllng now, which makes controls
meaningless. For another, the sentiment in
Congress is obviously one Of distaste for the
whole control idea. For still another, even
some OF the bureaucrats are beginning to un-
derstand that you can't get maximum pro-
ductlon and efficiency out of enterprise by
thrOttlng it with red tape and ever-changing
orders and amendments to orders. Finally.
and most important, public thinking on the
whole control idea has obviously undergone
some important changes More and more
people have become convinced that free. COM
petltve business, as contrasted with political
ly-domlnated business, is what this country
needs.
And more and more people have also
learned that controls deal not with the dis
ease we cali Initiation but only with some of
It's symptoms. The farmers, the manufacture
er and the retailer did not create initiation. and
most OF them have suffered rather than bene-
fitted from it. They, like the consumer. have
been among its victims. The primary stimu-
liant to initiation has been the insane, drunken
sailor fiscal policy of our government The
controls were phOny cure, and the sooner
all OF them are allowed to die the better off
we will be.

BABSON Discusses The Agricultural Outlook

EUREKA, KANSAS, Nov. last july forecast
bumper total crop OUttuTn for this year Thanks
to Mother Natures fine cooperation the 1852 total
crop volume is the second largest of record
SUMMER CROP RESUME
The above is Notwithstanding the severe drought
that prevailed in This years total wheat
crop amounted to 1,298,921OOO busheIs-the second
largest ever recorded From the Drice standnoint
this huge Outturn undoubtedly would prove burden
some were it not for government income Substan-a
tial amounts already have been impounded-a fact
that may result in some stringency later
The rye crop was the poorest on record amount
ing to only 15759000 bushels; but this will be sun
pemented by sizeable imports from the large Cana
dian surplus. The barley yield also was relatively
small but it should suffice. The same NAV be said
for the belOw-ayerage crops of oats and faxseed.
Hay did very well, with abOve-average outturn
of 1O3858OOO tons; nevertheless, shortages are in
dicated in some areas this winter Fce rang the
bell, with a record production of 4773OOOO bags
600 pounds each). This is fortunate in view of the
expected heavy foreign and domestic demand for rice
HATS OFF TO CORN
Among the fall crops being harvested corn
undoubtedly is king. This years indicated outturn
of 3256550O0O bushels will be second only to that
of the record 1948 crop. of 3,6O5,OOOOOO bushels
Furthermore, this years is of very high uuali-
tya matter of great Importance to growers as we'll
as to livestock interests Although cattle prices have
dropped sharply and may decline somewhat further
next year, this large fine crop should enable
smart feeders to make money in 1853

THE S64 QUESTION

short time ago the Executive Council
OF the American Federation of Labor met at
Atlantic City. In the course of it's deliber-
ations, it issued this remarkable official state
ment: There is no justification whatsoever
for attributing the present price spiral to
wage adjustments. Wage increases had
nothing to do with the rise in prices
An executive of company which Oper-
ates retail chain proposed this question
II constantly mounting payroll increases
IGnnlng IN the aggregate to StupendOuS sums
the whole country over, are not reflected in
operating costs, and so in prices to the GEN
eral public, from what source and in what
manner are these wage increases to be inan-
ced?"
That, obviously, is the S64 question. In
dustry's only source of revenue is from the
sale OF its products and services to the con-
sumer. II any business is to survive, the
selling price must be sufficient to pay all the
operating costs, including wages, along with
some KIND OF profit for the people who invest
ed their money took the risks, and so made
the existence of the business possible. Wages
are almost always one of the biggest items
IN the operating budget, and in many cases
Chey are far larger than any other.
Retail trade is a good case in point The
retailer must pay the going wholesale price
Tor goods. He must pay the going wage to
his employees, along with current rents,
taxes, advertising rates, and so on. In the
pest OF times his percentage profit is very
smaL-ranging from one to five or six cents
on each dollar of sales, depending on the kind
OF merchandise he sells. If higher costs
aren't passed on to the consumer, who's go-
ing to pay them?
The A of L Council would do the nation q
service if it would elaborate on its statement
and explain in precise terms just how and
why eVer-rlsing wages have nothing to do
with the prices we pay for the things we
use.

AMERICA LIKES IKE

For the next four years (at least)
the official acts of this nation will
be sealed by the signature Dwight
David Eisenhower" But to all Am
erica he will still be "Ike"-Presi-
dent Ike, now that he's received
the ultimate promotion that only
the people, by their individual, soul
searching decision could confer.
Few men in the worlds military
history have risen from Obscurity
to the pinnacle of their profession
as swiftly as our President-elect.
And probably no general before
him ever commanded such a mighty
host under such OrganizatiOnal diff
ficulties and in the face of so many
national prejudices and jealOusies.
EIt through it all as his authority
grew and his prestige mounted, he
remained just plain Ike"
This, we like to believe, is the
basic, underlying reason he could
blow on the embers of utter defeat
in the LOwlands and France and
kindle from them the flame of con-
A0CAANN LuclL swept dC4OSS Europe
to consume the Nazi might.
Because he's just plain Ike, his
fellow citizens have made him
President. That's why they listen
ed respectfully to his heroic eff
forts to become an orator. But they
didn't want words. They hungered
for leadership and thirsted for
fOTthrightness. They wanted a man
who could face squarely the bleak
ness of Korea, the rising tide of
Communism that threatens to en-
gulf the globe, foreign aid policies
that can destroy the alder without
giving strength to the aided, and
domestic policies (including "the
Mess") that undermine the self-re-
spect, the strength, the very free
dom of the last really free people
on earth . and bit-by-bit build a
battle plan and execute it in the
face Of the terrible odds appease-
ment has raised against us.
In Ike, the American people have
such a man. And they have a man
too that they would like to invite
home to dinner-whatever street
they live on!

HAIL OF BABEL

Joe Stalin's foreign minister,
Andrei Vishinsky, gave the acous-
tics of the elegant new hall of the
UN Assembly in New York 3
hour and 80 minute workout the
other day. If it had had rafters,
like any ordinary old hall, they
would have rung. But in this su-
per-mOdern temple of double-talk,
there was not even an echo. If his
audience squirmed. yawned or
seethed, it did so silently.
He wants the UN to form an in
ternational commission to work
out Korean peace on Vishin-
sky's terms. The commission would
include "the parties directly con-
cerned and other parties"-which
he did not name. The terms would
include fOrcible repatriation of
prisoners, the sole stumbling block
at PanmunjOm, which the Russian
declared, is an established principle
of international law.
Vishinsky scolded our Mr.. Ache
son for 'distorting" the facts in ac-
cusing the Russians of melting war
III Korea, and charged the Ameri-
cans with atrocities and brutali-
ties" in letting our prisoners of war
get out of hand in KOje and else
where.
Next day, (there's no rush, you
know Selwyn Lloyd, British Min
lister of State for Foreign Affairs,
answered Vishinsky, telling him
that repatriation was "the heart of
the matter" and asking if Russia
had any new ideas to offer.
Nothing like looking in now and
then on great minds at work
while our boys are bleeding and
dying in the nOt-sO-plushy Korean
hillsides.
