Burgess Says US. Future
Is Tied to Automotion

tistics for the recent past. He
pointed out that employment
went UP from 44.9 million In
1910 to 56.2 million In 1885,
a gain Of Is per cent in a period
Of unusually rapid scientific de-
velopment. tLast month, the
total was more than 64.5.)
More Workers Needed
"These figures show that in
spite Of the installation of im-I
proved machinery. more workers
were required to produce the.
amount Of goods and services
wanted" said Mr.. Burgess. '.ItI
is interesting to compare the In
crease In demand as well as In
population with the Is per cent
increase In employment during
the 1940s. Measured in 1854
prices. the Nations output Of
goods and services increased
about IS per cent between 1910
and 1850. accompanied by an in-
crease Of is per cent in popu-
lation.
"The gain In employment is
interesting because as the decade
began. many people were con-
cerned about machines displac-
ing men. And it Is especially in
teresting that some Of the in-
dustries that introduced new
machines employed substantially
more people in 1850 than in 1910.
The telephone industry, for ex-
ample. which put in the dial
telephone and displaced many
operators. nearly doubled It's em-
ployment between 1910 and
$780,"
Mr.. Burgess said that over this
l0-year period. many workers
moved from one occupation to
another. For example, there was
a marked drop in employment on
farms and in private households,
where manual labor is being done
more efficiently by machines.
But at the same time manufac-
turing absorbed 4 million work.
ers; wholesale and retail trade.
3 million, and services outside Of
private homes, 2.7 million.
Mr.. Burgess predicted that the
introduction of new machines
into ONCE work may have some
effect on clerical employment,
but not in q few years and per-
haps not In q lifetime. He said
there is every reason to believe
that the development Of cheap
and versatile electronic data
processing machines will not be
accompanied by a major reduc-
tion in the number Of office jobs.

Disaster Loan
Funds Assured

DENVER, Oct. Is, R-The
White House today approved an
emergency policy designed to
assure the Small Business Ad-
ministration adequate funds to
meet Government loan needs in
hurricane disaster areas.
The need for such a policy re-
suited from the drain on the
|agency'S resources after the Au-
gust hurricane-spawned floods
which ravaged the Northeastern
section of the country.
At that time the SBA had
a legal ceiling of $25 million
on disaster loans. and about
SIS million had been granted
previously.
Since the August disaster the
SBA has received applications
for more than $32 million in
loans and it expects the total
may reach $40 million. Disaster
loans are granted at 3 per cent
interest.
The Denver White House. tenn
porary executive branch head
quarters during President Eisen-
hower's illness, said today Con-
gressional leaders haye agreed
to hike the SIS million ceiling
when the lawmakers reconyene
in January.
1t added that meanwhile loans
after the $25 million limit has
been reached will be made at
Is per cent interest under SBA's
normal business loan program.
II and when the disaster loan
ceiling is lifted--and the White
House expressed confidence it
will be-the interest rate will
revert retroactively to 4 per cent,
today's announcement said.

A rosy picture Of continued ex-
pansion Of the Nations economy.
even with the steady. growth Of
labor saving machines. was
painted by Robert w. Burgess,
director Of the census, before a
congressional subcommittee e
today.
II do not expect the further
development Of machines to re-
duce the number of Jobs over the
long term" said Mr.. Burgess In
a statement prepared for pre-
Isentation to the Patman SUBJ
committee studying the effects Of
|automation.
although automation m y
lead to some serious short-run
|dislocations in particular indus
tries and particular parts Of our
country, it seems to me that in
the long run 1t will facilitate and
promote the general expansion. .
said Mr.. Burgess.
Era Of Rapid Growth
Our country appears to be in
ian era of rapid growth. = he con-
|tinued. "The development Of
new industries, the increasing
productivity, the growth Of the
population. the average citizens
desire fornew products and more
Iold products. the widepread busi-
ness confidence. the recognition
|of responsibility by the Gov
Iernment to promote sound eco
|nomic growth under the employ
ment act Of ls46. all promise a
continuous expansion OF our
economy
The testimony Of Mr.. Burgess
Icoincided with that given yes
lterday by D. ]. Davis, vice presi-
dent Of the Ford Motor Co.
Under questioning by Repre-
sentative Patman, Democrat, Of
Texas, Mr.. Davis predicted the
automobile industry will sell 8
million cars this year and the
same number in 1856. In 1857
he estimated the number would
increase to 8 million.
Mr.. Davis agreed with Mr..
Patman that 1t will only be pos
sible to sell this many cars II

he said, "the Russian refused.
Then they shot him."

The Army. deeply disap-
pointed by widespread lack Of
interest in the six-month reserve
training program. laid plans to-
day to ask Congress to make the
program as compulsory as the
draft and to increase the trainees'
pay.
There is no way to tell how
many youths win volunteer un-
der the present act. but few have
done so thus far. That is the
reason Congress was urged, in
vain, to make the program COM
pulsory when it debated the leg
islation early this year. That re-
quest will be renewed.
The trainees now are paid $50
/. q month for the six-month Pc
Rod. After that. they must re-
main active in organized reserve
units for -and-a-half years
and viii receive regular drill pay.
- About Selling
Army Secretary Brucker has
called for an all-out selling cam
paign for the military reserve
program Of which the six-month
section is a major feature. 1t
was revealed last night with re-
lease Of an address he made to
q meeting to top commanders.
= He said:
I'VE viii at the same time
analyze any shortcomings Of the
act 80 that we may submit rec
concentrations to the next ses-
sion Of Congress for any amend
ments which may be deemed
necessary to produce results"
An official said the draft fea-
ture. and the pay increase would
be included in the recommended
stions.
In calling on the Army TO get
out and sell the reserve program.
Mr.. Brucker declared:
s'The success Of this program
depends on how well you. your
representatives at the grass roots
level and your reserve unit COM
manders are able to convince the
people concerned Of the vital i'm
portance of supporting this act
In the furtherance of national
security. Every medium must be
fully and continuously employed
to insure clear understanding
Of the purpose, provisions and
benefits Of the law to gain whole
hearted support Of our citizenry.
II feel strongly that the sue
cessful implementation Of the re-
serve forces program is as i'm
protant as any single activity we
are now doing to strengthen our
national security"

an arrestingly different back

an arrestingly different back
ground.
For all its attractiveness, how
ever, this setting Is used as mere
background Cor a Screenplay
whose dominant elements are
excitement and suspense.
Moritoh, played by Kazuo
Hasegawa. is a villain of amaz-
ing energy and a deal of in
genuity for so fundamentally
stupid a man. His first notion
for clearing the path to Kesa is
to dispose of her beloved spouse,
Wataru, in a duel.
This, it turns out. is too crude
an approach. the shame of
whose failure turns Moritoh to
the more promising tactic of
victimizing Kesa herself. He f1g-
ures to bring her to dishonor by
threatening the life of Wataru,
a threat which fails for the sim
pie reason that he underesti-
mates the desperate resourceful-
ness of an honorable wife.
AS conflicts of good and evil
go, this one in "Gate of He'll"
is western in its surface energy,
Interestingly oriental in its rev.
elation of the difference between
creatures of virtue and those
driven by mere animal hunger.
Within this pattern, Moritoh
could not be more muscularly
played but Actor Hasegawa's
performance is matched move
for move and word for word by
the other principals. These are
Machiko Kyo, a delicately lovely
actress who goes quietly but
unmistakably about teaching the
villain the tragedy of not recog-
nizing his moral betters.
An equally quietly revealing
is that of Isao
Yamagata as the ultimately be-
reft husband.
These three and others of the
cast in lesser roles demonstrate
that western acting style is
within their artistic range. yet
