both," the booklet says, "Busi-
ness size is determined not by
fiat but by function. How
large a firm may grow is con-
trolled not by a pre-conceived
theory, but by the size and ma
ture of the needs a business
seeks to fill, and the skill it's
management displays in filling
them"
The automobile industry is a
perfect example of the fore
going statement. Says the
booklet, Without large firms,
the demands of the American
motorists never could be met.
In recent years, the public has
bought an average of more
than six million cars and 50
billion gallons of gasoline per
year. Small firms alone could
not have provided either. But
at the same time, the motorists
needs were in large part filled
by more than 10000 service
stations and $4,000 auto repair
firms (three-quarters of which
have three employees or less)
and some $4,000 auto dealers"
The booklet goes on to show
that the same pattern prevails
in other industries. In its own
field, chemical materials con-
sumed in great bulk come from
large companies like DUPONT.
The cost of equipment and re-
search call for bigness, but
here again DUPONT and other
large producers of chemicals
could not supply the demand
without thousands of other and
smaller concerns to fabricate,
process and distribute mater

ials to consumers.
The most telling point made
in the booklet is that many
small businesses owe their
very birth and existence to the
technical development of a
large, firm. From the labora-
tories of large companies has
come a stream of discoveries
that opens new opportunities
to small businesses.
AS an example of this, the
booklet points to the pigments
plant built by Dupont at New
port, Delaware, where a highly
skilled work force of 200 men
is employed. This plant de-
pends upon more than three
dozen small local businesses to
supply special products or ser
vices, all of which make use
full contribution to the smootH
operation of the plant, and pro-
fit by the presence of their
large industrial neighbor.

Your Election Laws

The Electoral College will
meet in Columbus on December
II. 1t might be interesting to re-
view the function of that body
since many vote for Presidential
Electors but do not realize they
are not voting direct for Presi~
dent and Vice-President.
The United States Constitution
provides that each state shall
appoint a number of electors,
equal to the number of Senators
and Representatives to which
the state may be entitled in the
Congress. Ohio is therefore en-
titled to twenty-five electors.
When the people of Ohio went
to the polls on November and
marked their ballots for the
presidential and vice-presidential
nominees, they were in reality
voting for each Of the candidates
for Presidential Elector, whose
names were certified to the
Secretary of State and who are
members of the same political
party as those nominees for
President and Vice-President
These Presidential Electors
will meet in Columbus on Dec
ember II to cast the actual votes
for President and Vice e-President.
The electorals of the other forty
seven states will meet in their
respective state capitals on the
same date and perform the same
function for their states. Certifi-
Gates of the voters from each
state are then forwarded to
Washington where they are
counted and tailed in a Joint
session of the two houses of Con-

based on a unit of time count
and the total number of days
worked does not matter; for the
20 day test, the total amount of
cash pay is not a consideration so
long as farm work is done for
one employer on 20 or more days
for cash pay.
The 1854 law did not cover
agricultural work performed by
workers from Mexico hired un-
der contract or by foreign work
ers lawfully admitted from the
British West Indies on a temp
orary basis.
Under the 1856 amendments,
service performed by foreign
workers admitted to the United
States on a temporary basis to
perform agricultural work from
any foreign country will not be
covered by the law after 1856.
If you are a farmer, or if you
gain a livelihood in any kind of
agricultural or horticultural
work, either in employment or
self-employment, the social
security law as newly amended
is important to you and your
family. 1t is well 20 realize that
this program of social insurance
is now three-fold-it provides
old-age benefits for men at age
IS and for women at GO; it pro-
vides survivors protection for
young wives and minor children
and to aged parents and depen-
dent husbands: it provides bene-
fits to the insured disabled
worker after he reaches age so.
If you are on active duty (thls

ing in the uniformed forces Of
the U. S. after 1856, your base
pay will count toward old-age

torative training. However, the
$1l0-a month allowance is not
sufficient to pay for it. Could
this allowance be raised?
Ayes. the monthly allow
ance may be increased to cover
the costs of restorative training.
But your sons 36 months of en-
titlement would be reduced by

of the basic monthly allowance

O. understand that veterans
no longer will be able to obtain
Korean CT term insurance after
December 81, 1856. What about
special CT insurance for disabled
veterans? Does the deadline
apply to them, too?
A-No. December 81, 1856,
marks the deadline only for
obtaining Korean CT term insur-
ance for able-bodied veterans.
Service-disabled veterans still
will have the right to get special
CT policies after that date.
O. started training under
the Korean CT Bill just in ad-
vance of my three-years-from-
discharge deadline. That dead
line has now passed. Now I find
that I'm not happy with my
course, and l would like to
change it. Do l. have the right
to make one change of course,
even. though my starting dead
line has passed.
A-Since your starting dead
line has passed, you may change
your course only under one of
these conditions: Cd if you have
not been making satisfactory
progress in your present course
through no fault of yours, and
the new program would be more
in keeping with your abilities,
or GU the new program is a
normal progression from your
present program.

increased compensation for the
disability you suffered in train
ing, provided it was not the
result of your own wilful mis-
conduct.
Q-Under the War Orphans
Education program, may special
restorative training be taken by

BOeing's commercial jet trans
port, the TOT, with over 500 fly
ing hours already logged, will
be "just another airplane" by
the time it goes into scheduled
operation. Maynard L. Pennell
promises.
Mr.. Pennell, chief engineer of
the Boeing company says the
differences between present-day
aircraft and the jet transports
are less than the similaritieS. AS
far as maintenance is concerned,
they'll be dream-boats without
the usual trouble sources such as
propellers, carburetors and igni-
ton systems.
He had a heartening word for
the economy minded traveller
too. There is considerable evil
dence that the larger transport
can be more economical than the
best. aircraft today and eff this
is reflected in lower fare struc-
lures, the sure result will be
a rapid increase in the amount
of travel-eyen more rapid than
we have experienced to date"
His reasoning on the air traf-
fic control problem goes like
this: The jet, rather than pre-
cipitating these problems. might
even allow a little longer time
for arriving at the final solution
because it carries q larger num-
