America has changed from just an

being, from . cartoon Of evil

dealt with.
In Russia, which promises the
working man the moon but still
employs slave labor. there Is !
vast gulf between the peasant and
the bureaucrat.
In America and other parts Of
the Tree world, which long ago
abandoned slavery Is Improbable
and in the long run unworkable.

more and more within the reach
The old hate-gap between en-
ployer and employee. between cap
ital and labor, has narrowed, too.
The guy who works for q wage
and the guy who supervises or
owns the business are coming to
understand that both are in the
same boat, and Il either rocks it
too hard both may drown. This
truth seems. In . century that in

that has prospered more people
than any system since the story
of man began.
The plain fact Is that capitalism
has shown itself more responsive
to change, more wiling to correct
its own abuses, than communism.
It has given more people more
hope, more freedom, more bread,
more opportunity, more dignity,
more happiness.
This recognition Of the teamshlp
between boss and hired man has
made the role Of boss more diff.
cult.
An old song says, "A Good Man
Is Hard To Find" But industry IS
finding today that q good boss is
even harder to finland hold.
The old style boss, who often
ruled his underiings by the whip
lash Of fear, is gradually joining
the dinosaur. The new type boss
leads men rather than drives them.
His greatest weapon In getting his
job done Is not his authority--it IS
his depth Of understanding. He
must know how to get along with
people.
He is less of an autocrat and
more of an artist in human rela-
tons. He knows that q symphony

symbol, not club. It draws from
each musician the right note at the

monious achievement. The task of
the boss, IN Office or factory, Is
the same as that of an orchestra

LITTLE FALLS, N. Y, Jan. 28.
Flames from an overturned

The truck, operated by Robert
MichaelS. IS. of Rochester, skid
ded on an icy hill in this Mohawk

Mr.. Michaels escaped without

Theoretically such a bomb, if
it has been made or if it's con-
struction is possible, would re-
lease much more energy per unit

MARSHALL Tex, Jan. 28.-
Six-year-olds in this East Texas

Bars Hospital

Homeowners Win
Fight to Block
SibIey Project
By John w. Stepp

Sibley Hospital today was
barred from building a new
structure on the American Uni
versity campus.
The District Zoning Commits
sion made the ruling in granting
petition of homeowners in the
exclusive Spring Valley-Wesley
Heights areas adjoining the uni
versity property.
Nearly TOO of these residents
had petitioned the coming body
to classify the campus as resi-
dental A, restricted in con-
formity with the adjacent resi-
Dental subdivisions.
During the extended hearings
in the last month, citizens
turned out in unprecedented
numbers to argue both sides of
the case.
Vote Not Revealed.
The zoning Commission re-
fused to disclose how its five
members voted. In taking this
stand, a spokesman explained,
the members were reverting to
an old policy that had been
dropped in the last year or SO.
Robert o. Clauser, director of
coming planning for the District,
said the commission decided also
not to reveal whether the vote
was unanimous or split.
The commission is composed
OF the three District Commits
sioners, David Lynn, architect of
the Capitol. and Conrad l.. Wirth,
director of the National Park
Service.
Mr.. Clauser provided the only
clue to the reasoning behind the
decision. He said the commits
sion went along with recon-
mendation of the Zoning Advis-
ory Council, which felt that con-
struction of large hospital, as
proposed by Sibley on the uni
versity campus. would "substan-
TALLY impair" the value of many
OF the expensive homes nearby.
No Normal Expansion Curb.
Mr.. clouser explained that the
commission decision does not bar
normal and logical expansion Of
American University as a uni
versity."
He said that the university
may go ahead and construct
dormitorieS, classroom buildings
or an athletic field without get
ting special permission from
zoning authorities.

report that mo legitimite PLAN
