PEACEFUL REVOLUTION

How many people realize just how COM
pletely mass-distributiOn reVOlutiOnized re-
tail business in this cOuntry-and in doing
that, made one of the biggest and most last
ing contributions to the nations living stand
ards?
One illustration pretty well describes
what has happened. Today food chains and
other large-scale food distributors common
ly earn a profit of about one cent on each
dollar of sales. Back in 1888, there were
mUltitudes of very small food stores which
did less than 500 day in total business. If
their profit had been on the same basis as
that now earned by the chains, it would have
run to $1.O0 a day or less Obviously, they
couldn't have operated on that kind of mar
GIN In order to make even a sparse living
out Of their tiny volume they had to add
heavy maFk-Ups, at the consumers expense.
The answer was large volume alta small
unit prOhts-and that was mass distlibu-
ton, as pioneered by the chains But the
chains, of course, had no monopoly on the
idea. Independent stores met the cOmpeti-
ton, increased their volume, grew and pros
pered. The fear that the mass distribution
revolution would be rUinOus to independent
merchandising proved thoroughly unfOund-
ed. Actually, the percentage of the total
trade done by the Independents and the
chains has not varied materially in a gener-
alton.
Mass distribution did more than hold
prices to levels much lower than would have
been possible without it. 1t also gave us bet
ter and more convenient products, greater
choice, and improved services all along the
line. That is true not only of food, but of
all the other branches of retailing. An idea
became a peaceful revolution that benefited
c--o.--oro in the l0n0 run.

DELAWARE DEMOCRATS ARE HAPPY
Delaware Democrats are a happy group.
They should be, for they have reaped VIC
tory after a campaign which was well or
ganized and effective. On the other hand
the Republican Party throughout the State
conducted a listless and unimpressive drive
for votes from the beginning to the end of
the campaign. Already we hear talk and
demand for complete reorganization of the
Republican Party at the State level. The
party will have to be reunited and the sever
al quarreling factions must be harmonized
and unity achieved before the campaign of
1856 or the Republican Party will remain
a minority party in Delaware. Once work
ing agreement between the battling groups
within the party has been achieved, an eff
fective organization can be created and a
harmonious campaign can be waged. A sat
isfactOry result from the Republican view
point can result. It will take hard work and
much cOnciliation on the part of all to effect
this end. 1t can be done. just as the Demo
Gratis did on Tuesday, by pulling the elections
out of thin air. The sooner this problem is
tackled at the top level, the better will the
Republicans be able to conduct future cam
paign and the brighter will be their pros
poets in 1856.

Better Lights Needed To
Improve Poultry Houses

POultrymen planning TO improve
their present bUildings-Or brOiler
growers planning to rebuild follow
ing Hurricane Hazel-might think
Of better lights.
Al a recent meeting or rural cleo
trificatiOn specialists at the Uni-
versity of Delaware, specialists
from Delaware, Maryland and New
Jersey agreed that poultry houses
could be lighted better in terms OF
loot candles.
Lights should be thought Of in
terms of light on the floor instead
Of watts in the ceiling" says Will
liam e. Larsen, agricultural engi-
ueer at the University Of Delaware,
in commenting on the conference.
A foot candle is a measure OF the
brightness of a light. In poultry
houses we are interested in the
amount of light on the floor and
feeding areas. Watts do not tell
ANYTHING about the amount Of light
that is reaching the floor and chic
kens. The amount Of light will
vary with the distance the light is
from the floor and the type OF
reflections around the bulb. The
tyne of rejecting surfaces around
Che light also affects the amount
81 light that will reach the floor.
Larsen recommends that you re-
place the standard light bulb with
a bulb that has a built-in reflector.
This bulb will take the light of
the ceiling and put it on the floor
and feeding areas with the chickens.
A good bulb for this type is R-S0-
rs. Although this bulb costs more
than a standard bulb. it is well
worth it because it has much
longer life and it puts the light
where it is needed.
Tests have shown that a bulb Of
this type lasts about three times
as long as an ordinary bulb. Try

BABSON DISCUSSES THE STOCK MARKET

on to bring these miracles about.
In short, a New Era" was then
confidently anticipated. Basically
there was weakness, but it was
most apparent in stock market
speculation.
Conservative Advice
The current market presents
much the same irregular picture as
was present in 1929. The so-called
blue chips have outdistanced the
bulk Of the issues on the market,
due to concentrated buying. much
Of it by Institutions, Pension Funds,
and Mutual Investment Trusts.
There are in addition many new
crosscurrents in the market that
did not exist in 1929. We have
armament activity and other Gov
ernment buying, heavy spending,
support Of farm prices, and es-
pecially the INTENSE NEW AD-
VERTISING PROGRAMS, WHICH
/ CONSIDER VERY IMPORTANT.
It is clear that the economic pic
ture and the trend ia the market
can change abruptly and SNOWFALL
rapidly to an unexpected degree.
The real purpose Of my column
this week is to bring to your at
tention that the market may soon
be in as vulnerable a position as in
1929, especially If the capital gains
tax should be repealed, for which
the "bears" are striving. Those who
were unprepared in 1929 had no
chance to take the profits they
thought they possessed. Nor did
they have purchasing power when
the market reached the unbelieve-
able bargain levels Of 1892.
General Conditions Good
The banks are now sound; en-
ployment is now good; profits in

most lines are fair; while very
few stocks are being bought on
margin; all must have margin
Of at least 5096. Home building is
actually booming, and the imitation
since 1929 has justified higher
prices for both homes and stocks.
Again, / commend the importance OF
today's Advertising.
The boom in home building is,
however, becoming a possible
source of danger. This is new
factor which did not exist twenty
five years ago. Where the danger
signals of 1929 are not now evil
dent, this new danger signal Of
the building boom" is surely with
US. Furthermore, tOday's building
is mostly on borrowed money. Only
the Federal Government can pre-
vent a wave of mass foreclosures
some day.
Installment Purchases
This brings me to another present
danger, namely, installment pur-
chases. These purchases are today
not increasing rapidly. They, how
ever. are still very heavy. Curious
ly, they are now being encouraged
by the banks which would have
nothing to do with small loans
twenty-five years ago.
Another different condition today
relates to labor unions. Every right
thinking person must approve the
general usefulness of labor unions
in their place. Unions are justified
in striking if necessary to eliminate
bad working conditions and to get
fair wage. The present system.

BabsOn Park, Mass, Nov. A..
Twenty-Five years ago made a
well-known forecast about an i'm
pending big break in the stock
market. (Reprint of the article
which appeared in the New York
Times in 1929, recording my state
ment, will, be sent to anyone free
on Tequest.) At the close Of the
previous day in 1929, the Dow-Jones
industrial Stock Average stood at
$50. The market Immediately began
to weaken and shortly plunged
down swiftly, closing at 230-a de-
cline of $50 points in less than
e light weeks Today the DOw-JOnes
Industrial Average is 1858, within
points of the highest figures since
1929. In fact, it has moved up over
100 points since September 1858.
Reactions To Be Expected
/ expect another severe reaction
sooner or later, Of at least so to
rs points. Surely, present stock
yields are now too low, when 1854
Federal Taxes are deducted. Such
break in the market could occur
even during a period of good busi-
ness activity such as am not
forecasting. Stock prices have Of
late demonstrated that they can
move independently Of both busi-
ness and earnings. 1t is we'll to
recall that, in 1929, there were few
outward signs of the stock market
crash ahead.
Investors were then anticipating
larger dividend returns with a re-
duetiOn in risk through diversified

Only The Carpet Was Red
KOnrad Adenauer, Is year old
Chancellor of West Germany, in
.hree-day visit to Washington was
hailed by President Eisenhower at
his press conference as one of the
great spOkesmen of our time
animated by good sense, dedication
to his people and to the peace Of
The world.
Later in the day the German
leader was met at the Washington
National Airport by Secretary of
State John Foster Dulles who
voiced similar sediments, and
whisked the Nations guest away to.
q formal state dinner at which Mr.
Dulles was host. The following day,
after a conference with the Presi-
dent. Chancellor Adenauer was
guest of honor at a White House
luncheon attended by Mr.. Dulles
and ranking defense officials.
The decision of the Western
European Union to rearm West
Germany. and to elevate his coun-
try to full sovereignty among ma
tions solved the problem. said DR..
Adenauer, of life or death for my
people" In thanking the President
and Mr.. Dulles for their support,
he declared: "The whole German
people are united in the desire to
live in continual, cordial friendship
with the American people"
SO
Novel Idea
President Eisenhower believes
that it would be a good idea to ap-
point a man who has had expert
ence on the bench to fill that va
cancy on the Supreme Court. In fact
he told his press conference he
thought this would be a good prac-
tice i'm the average case where AssO-
ciate Justices we're concerned. But
he drew a distinction between these
posts and that of Chief Justice, to
which he appointed CALIFORNIA;
former Governor Earl Warren who
had never before been a judge.
This post, he said. presented a
very special problem, although he
didn't explain It. We can only as

needs to understand a pick and
shovel in order to get a hole dug.
