would define those terms.
The well-being of the nation is
not matter to be left to economic
soothsayers, no matter how high
their standing in that art may oe.
Certainly any program of public
works costs money, but since the
Administration is already follow
ing a policy of economizing on de-
tense, the burden of public
works program will not be un-
bearable. Furthermore, since no
one knows the course of the pres
ent contraction, there can be no
certainty that the national debt
will not grow as national income
falls and tax income declines.
To be sure, it is mistake to
describe the state Of the nation in
terms Of gloon" and DOOM" but
with equal certainty it is an error
to define the present program Of
the Administration as bold" and
dynamic" AS for the Economic
Report itself, it demonstrates
clearly that the Council of Eco
nomic Advisers is attempting to
face in two directions simultan-
eously face toward outmoded
doctrines of classical economics
and the other face toward the eco
nomic facts of the Twentieth Cen
fury.
1t is to be hoped that the present
split-personality illness wi be
cured promptly so that we may
continue our American way of life,
safe from the snares and decisions
of all the "isms"

Butchers Fight
Cut In Meat
INSPECTIONS

Chicago. - Since purity of the
meat we eat is so important, the
Amalgamated Meat. Cutters and
Butcher Workmen protested to
United States Senators against any
cut being made in appropriations
for the enforcement Of Federal
meat inspection. Recommendations
have been made which would reduce
the appropriation by millions.
Nationwide Fight
The move by Earl w. Emerson,
president, and Patrick E. German,
secretary, of the Butcher Work
men, came following the launching
of a nationwide campaign by the
union to see that poultry sold on
the market is sanitary.
Drastic reductions have been
proposed in the appropriation for
Federal meat inspection" Emerson
and German said in their wire.
"These reductions could result in
gradual return to the putrid, un-
sanitary conditions under which
meat was slaughtered and proc
essed prior to enactment of the
Federal law.
"The meat industry must not be
permitted to return to the jungle
Of insanitation which prevailed be-
There is already a shortage of
inspectors and drastic cuts in ap-
preparation for this service could
make the whole meat inspection
service inadequate and nearly
worthless.
Poultry is now being processed
under shockingly inadequate sani-
try conditions because of lack OF

appropriate and compulsory Fed
eral inspection.
"The meat industry cannot be
permitted to revert to such condi-
lions.
Urge you do all within your
power to prevent any reduction in
the appropriation for Federal meat
inspection. This Federal health
measure must not be tempered
with. It can be improved, must
never be damaged"
Jackson advocate. [volume] (Jackson, Miss.) 1939-current, 1954-07-10

vldends alone is to be eliminated:
depreciation allowances are to be
liberalized; research and develop
ment expenses are to be deducted
as business costs; and taxes on
undistributed earnings are to be
reduced by placing upon the gov
eminent the burden of proof that
keeping such profits from the
stockholders is unreasonable.
The Report does not state that
these changes can be made at "a
comparatively small loss of reve-
nue. Rather the suggestion is
made that refunds of tax overpay-
ment should be speeded.
The fact should be clear that
neither the proposed tax changes
nor the tax reductions in effect
will have any noticeable results on
the ability of consumers generally
to purchase the inventory which al
legedly caused the contraction"
IN economic activity. Instead, the
tax cuts" which have had the
greatest impact on wageearners
are due to unemployment.
The overemphasis upon encour-
aging initiative of business and the
slight regard to stimulation of con-
sumption are not limited to the
tax field. The Administrations po-
sition on minimum wages - based
on the Report is even more
glazing. The sum and substance
of this position is that there
should be no increase in the mini
mum wage at this time.
The arguments marshaled for
this conclusion reach back to Eight
zenith Century economic theory and
were thoroughly reviewed at the
time the Fair Labor Standards
Act was originally under discus
sion in Congress in 1895. These
fallacies were recognized as out
of place during the first half of the
Twentieth Century; now they have
been exhumed to haunt wage-earn-
ers and their families who are ex-
pected to live on $50 per week
or rs cents an hour because
higher wage would discourage the
initiative of their employers. Here,
if ever, is a problem which is
both human" and economic" that
cannot be evaded by nice distinc-
tions of language.
Looking back over the entire
Economic Report and the "bold,
dynamic program" based upon it,
one is led to suspect that the
Council of Economic Advisers and
the Administration may be suf-
fering from a psychological malady
characterized as split personality,
In view of the fact that psychology
is such basic ingredient in the
prescription written in the Report,
perahps it is not amiss to sug-
gest the old cliche, physician, heal
thyself."
To be specific, time and time
again in the Report the role of
government in the economic life
of the nation is described in truly
bold and dynamic words such as
these:
cit must be recognized, how
ever, that the demands of modern
life and the unsettled state of the
world require much larger role
for government and a much higher
level of taxation than suited ear
lier generations.
"The proper role of government
is not to resist adjustment to
change, but rather to foster con-
ditions under which adjustment can
be accomplished with minimum

Agriculture
Like other agricultural workers
there were less Negro Families,
hired workers on American farms
in 1858 than in 1852. Figures for
all races, according to Sherman
Briscoe, information specialist in

ture, show that there were 1885,
900 less farm families in the South
during that period and $4,000 less
hired workers-the sharpest de-
cline in the past 80 years.
The Negro farmer in 1858 was
worse off income-wise, but his
standard of living improved great
ly. He built better homes, equip
ped them with modern convenient
ces, His farming also improved, as

- HEAT and pressure are off. The Virgin Islands Of
the United States have a brand new Governor in the person
of Archie Alexander. From aladyancer reports, Mr.. Alexander
is quite a guy. President Eisenhower, who, considering all
things, should know men, was in no hurry In spite of heck
ling, profuse advice and pressure, it was not until eighteen
months after his election that he finally chose a man from
some. fifty Of more candidates, n~anifesting genuine interest
and forethoughts in the matter.
THE GOVERNOR is a popular and Well-informed indi-
viduaI on the political as well as civic scene. In this particuz
lar instance, however, these qualities are simply staging and
scaffoldng. OF prime importance is the fact that Archie
Alexander is a builder and constructor, and therein will lie
the secret Of his success as Governor. In becoming a business
tycoon, Mi. Alexander had to be an organizer and psycholo-
gst. These capacities will stand him in good stead in the
recognizing and reconstruction Of the Virgin Islands that
his agenda will embody. The greatest leader Of all once said
to his twelve followers who were fishermen, Follow me and
you will be fishers Of men" Undoubtedly, as a builder and
constructor Of great projects, it is more than likely that this
craftsman will become builder of men-Virgn islanders.

will be a period of adjustment when His Excellency and the
people will take time out to size each other up. This inter-
lude is vitality important since the right or wrong foot is
involved. The Natives are going to be curious, skeptical and
have d certain amount eff resentment. Instead Of having to
adjust to anew personality sent to monitor" them every
time the political party changes, they would much rather
govern themselves and they have every right to want to.
