The Health Of the

to provide rosy glow. People who
persist in stripping administration
handouts to the naked and sometimes
somber facts are considered Commu-
nists, Or even worse, Democrats.
Further, most of the administrations
security procedures are devoted to
its own security, not that of the ma
ton.
TWISTED, SUPPRESSED
Gwen the life-and-death facts of
national defense are twisted or sup
pressed at need, to make it look good.
.'No national administration before
ever controlled the nations economic
life so completely-or so frankly and
entirely for the ends and benefit of
it's own friends, and so little for the
national welfare.
HThe farmer thinks his case is ex-
ceptional, in that the administration
through Secretary Benson keeps tell
ing him he is better off, even sThile
his income goes down, only to behefit
professors, marketeers and specula-
tors.
LABOR HAS CASE
But labor has case, too. With
its collective income down $2.5
billions, and with the blackjack
boys in control of it's destinies also,
its members are necessarily told
that they never had it so good, and
that they are ungrateful if they
aren't thankful
The administration statisticians
and information people have a superb
technique. Their Madison Avenue
madison avenue is the
street of the advertising hucksters
in New York; covers all diversions
of government, and of the national
economic picture.
Let's take, for example, another
recent Department of Commerce re-
lease, that on gross national product,
which is the total of all goods and
produced in any one year
by the American people.
OFF A BIT
Here the administration had to adj
NIT that 1854 gross national product |
was off quite bit from 1853, some
seven billion dollars in fact, or about |
two per cent-three per cent if you
admit the fact that things cost more

victory" over initiation. Gross ma
5ional product was about 1857 billions
lin 1854 dollars) in 1854; as against
1864 billions Tin 1853 dollars) in
1853.
Here the ignored fact is that
we Americans are so prolific and
healthy that there are about 2.8
millions more of us each year to
split up the gross national product.
On July 1, 1853, the years median
inc, there were about 159,629,000
Americans to split up 1864 billions
n goods and services. On July L,
1854, there were approximately 1922 :
100000 of us to split up only 1857
billions worth of goods and services.

Secretary of Labor Mitchell went
so far as to warn, in pointing to the
increasing number of persons aged
As or older, that "unless something
is done to give them job opportunities,
an estimated half of our adult popu-
lation will be condemned to life Of
economic uselessness" by 1875.

supposedly abolishing all age limits

unemployment will also increase-unless something
is done about it. With the growing population in
this country, there about 100000 workers
looking for jobs every year as high school and col
lege students finish their education.
The problem as the researchers see it, is how to
start spreading around the benefits of this increased
productivity. One answer is higher wages and the
increased purchasing power that will enable more
families to buy and consume more of the products
being produced
With unfriendly Administration in Washing
ton, unions have not been able to raise purchasing
power fast enough the past couple of years to
keep up with increasing production. And, there is
nothing happening that indicates easier time for
union negotiators in the near future.
NO REDUCTION IN TAKE-HOME PAY
Another approach to this problem of unemploy-
ent shortening the regular workWeek to 80 hours
with no reduction in take-home pay.
This is spread-the-work program. Researchers

Senate Contempt Charge
Aqoinst Lamont Dropped

NEW YORK. July % (P.-A
Federal Judge has dismissed con-
tempt of the Senate charges
against Corliss Lamont and two
other men who refused to an.
swer questions in 1853 before
Senator McCarthy's Permanent
Subcommittee on Investigations.
Judge Edward Weinfeld. in
granting a defense motion for
dismissal yesterday, said the in
dictment against the three failed
to show that the subcommittee
had proper congressional au-
thority to conduct such an in
Quiry.
Judge Weinfeld did not rule
on the validity or scope of Sem
ator McCarthy's authority, out
said in his decision:
THE indictment is barren of
any allegation or fact from
which the authority of the per-
manent subcommittee can be
ascertained.
"One vainly examines the
public law and Senate resolu-
tions set forth in the indictment
to find any reference to the per-
manent subcommittee, let alone
any delegation Of power to it,"
Indicted Last October
The 53-year-old Mr.. Lamont
son of the late Thomas W.
Lamont, j. P. Morgan & Co
partner, had contended the Nc
Carthy subcommittee never was
legally authorized by the Senate
to conduct its Investigations.
Mr.. Lamont was indicted by a
grand jury last october ID
along with Abraham Unger and
Albert Shadowitz.
Refusing to answer % ques-
tions put to him by the subcom-
mittee during its investigation
of Communists in defense posts,
Mr.. Lamont pleaded the first
amendment with its guarantees
Of free speech.
Mr.. Lamont. an author and
educator, had refused to say
whether he was under Commu-
mist control or associated with
Communists at the time he
wrote a book, "The Peoples OF
the Soviet Union"
A chapter from the book was
included in an Army handbook
Mr.. Lamont has called himself
"a free-wheeling liberal" but
has publicly denied that he is OF
ever was a Communist.

after the courts decision, termed
