This Week
In
Washington
By Walter SheaCi


The council of state chambers
of commerce, maintaining an
office here in Washington, says
that perhaps the time has come
to reverse the process and begin
turning over to taxpaying private
ownership those enterprises
which the government is shown
to have handled with Indifferent
success"
Then the council suggests the
post office department with more
than half-billion dollar deficit
each year would be a good place
to start. Which brings up the
question, Where in private busi-
ness will we find investors with
even a half-billion dollars to
make up the deficit, let alone
take over the post office depart
ment?"
The state council has some
backing for its proposal, for it
may be remembered that Senator
Homer Ferguson, Republican of
Michigan, introduced a bill in the
last session of Congress (S-3482),
which proposed a review of fed
eral programs and projects with
a view to returning to state and
local governments and to private
enterprise activities which they
can perform with greater econ
omy and efficiency than the fed
eral government"
And the prediction is freely
made that once the Republican
party again controls the White
House and Congress, steps will be
taken to get the government out
of business, particularly in the
electric power field. 1t might be
pointed out now that the govern
ment itself already has moved
to rid itself of some business en-
terprises which it acquired dur
ing the war. By sacrificing many
millions of dollars, the govern
ment sold its big steel plant at
Provo, Utah, which cost the tax
payers $190 million, to US. Steel
Corporation for about SAT mil
lion. 1t also sold the Big Inch and
Little Inch pipe lines at a sac
rifice of about $4 million after
all bids were rejected and the
sale readvertised.
At one time the government
had about SO aluminium plants
which cost about $500 million,
and number of these have been
sold at sale prices. Also the
government built up monopoly
on synthetic rubber during the

THE AMERICAN NlY


If "The American Way" which
has been so good to us, is to be
retained and improved, it must
be done under the system of Free
Enterprise that has made pos
sible the highest standard of liv-
ing in world history for us
Americans. However, Free Enter
prise is a much abused term. The
phrase should be amplified. To
me it is best described as the
American Capitalistic System of
Free, Private, Competitive Enter
prise.
FREE does not mean that there
should be no rules. There should
be rules that insure an equal op-
portunity for every American.
PRIVATE means the indivi-
duaPs right of contract, the right
to work at the occupation of his
choosing and to enjoy the fruits
of his earnings.
COMPETITIVE means free op-
Grafton of the law of supply and
demand, with no special privi-
leges for anyone.
ENTERPRISE means the right
to risk time or money and to
work as hard and as long as each
individual feels is necessary to
give him the return he desires.
If we are to retain Free, Pri-
vate, Competitive Enterprise, we
must understand it and honestly
apply it to all our daily activi-
ties.
Over a period of the past two
decades there has grown up in
America a dangerous philosophy
of letting government do it - of
throwing into the lap of govern
ment the problems we should
solve for ourselves, in the hope
we will have them solve for us
with no effort on our part.
This problem presents a chal-
lenge to the next Administration
and Congress. This should be
borne in mind when we go to the
polls on November 4. We must
vote for candidates pledged to
restore constitutional govern
ment to the nation, so that the
individual will again be ION his
own" rather than leaning on a
paternalistic government.
This problem also presents a
challenge to all businessmen.
Management must approach the
subject in broad spirit of busi-
ness craftsmanship and plan for
further betterment of the entire
national structure. The fate of
every enterpriser, from the small
lest employer to the largest unit,
is involved. 1t is vital that all
plan and work together for the
common welfare, as well as for

Taking things easy soon makes
life hard.
The best way to rise to the
heights is to stay on the level.
The greatest secret of life is
to spend it on something that
will outlast it.
One of the hardest secrets for
a man to keep is his opinion of
himself.
When man sings his own
praises, he invariably gets the
tune too high.
Many man, like Solomon,
has been given a reputation he
did not earn.
Wisdom is one heritage no man
has ever been able to pass on to
his son.
Prosperity has never proved to
be any nations salvation.
If pretty woman smacks me

A $7O,77l, 900 six-year school
building program has been pro-
posed by Supt. Of Schools Hobart
NJ. Corning for study by the
Board Of Education.
Drawn up at the request Of the
commissioners. the program in
eludes as white school projects to
cost $20. .060 900. and A colored
school construction items TO cost
t48, $50, ,000.s
In addition, q new administra-
ton building is proposed at an
outlay Of $2,125. 900 in the flrst
year Of the schedule.
DR.. Corning said that by chang
ing the use Of some present facili-
ties, the cost Of the new con-
Dtruction might be reduced as
much as $40 million. It would
cost about 10 per cent Of that
amount to convert present build
Ings to new use. he added. how
ever.
This would bring the net cost OF
Iites, new construction and con-
verting present buildings to $52,-
vi, 900 under the plan.
Three s. Million Items.
The most expensive items in the
schedule are for replacement of
the Armstrong High School In the
hrst year and new buildings for
both the white and the Negro
teachers colleges In the third
year. each Of the three estimated
lt S. million.
Most Of the items that were in
the 1853 budget estimates SUBJ
mitted to the Commissioners last
fall, largely eliminated from the
budget as it went to Congress. are
included In the first years of the
new program, DR.. Corning noted.
School officials had requested
t12 million for 1852 construction.
This was cut down to only $1.4
million.
The bulk Of. the building is dis
tributed over the first four years
Of the new schedule.
