Today what is needed is not
an anti-depression program.
What is needed is a full pros
perity program"
The distinction Mr.. Keyserling
makes is profound. For a first
implication of it is that we have
conquered the threat of severe
depression, need no longer fear
Ia repetition of 1929-32.. A Sec
ond implication is that a full
prosperity program would go
strikingly beyond anything ever
seen in our land-and the adop-
tion of the program in itself
would make certain that the
economic future would be ever
higher output. incomes, living
standards.
Economy Expansion
Specifically. Mr.. Keyserling be-
lieves that as a Nation we should
strive to become a $500 billion
economy by 1904 rise of a
full $l00 billion within five years.
He insists our resources of man.
power and materials are suffice
lent to make this achievement
poSsible-without imitation.
1t is a heady proposal for
an expansion of this magnitude
and rate would mean a 20 per
cent increase in the average
standard of living by 1860. It
would mean a rs per cent slash
in the. number of American
families with incomes below $2.-
900 a year.
1t would allow the building of
100000 classrooms by then, and
a rise in average teacher salaries
to $4,000 against less than $3.50
now.
1t would involve the construc-
tion of 9 million new homes.
with a third of the total devoted
to slum clearance and housing
for middle-income groups.
1t would double the average
income of the over-65, double
the protection under the old
age insurance and assistance
program.
1t would include programs to
eliminate most of the shortages
in hospitals and medical care
and to bring adequate medical
care within the reach of low
income families.
Right or wrong on details, Mr..
Keyserling has hit a basic point.

And no matter what future
historians finally decide about
the virtues Of the New Deal. they
must give credit to the Demo-
cratic Party for initiating the
great anti-slump and social well
fare measures Of this era-So-
cial Security. OLD Age Assistance,
slum clearance. unemployment
insurance. the minimum wage,
insurance of bank deposits. etc
But today, the Republican
Party also stands for these meas
ures. Although the Democratic
Party began the program, the
G. o. p. in the past three years
has carried them on. In fact,
during the Eisenhower admin
istration, several of the basic
welfare programs have been i'm
portantly expanded.
Which leads to two questions
I've heard debated at great
length by the serious thinkers
sof the Democratic Party
Throughout this week:
What can the Democratic
Party now stand for in the basic
spheres of economic and social
welfare that will set it distinctly
apart from the G. o. P?
Even more, what must the
party stand for if it is to recap
ture the initiative from the
@. o. p, give a smashing retort
to those who believe Eisenhower
has not only adopted the best oi
the Democratic economic and
welfare programs but also done
a superior job of administering
them?
Questions. Are Vital
These are scarcely superficial
questions. On the contrary
they're basic and tough. But
the Democrats are going to have
to face them.
The economic planks in the
Democratic platform are in the
liberal tradition but they do not
go nearly as far as many of the
men who helped write them
hoped. AS Leon Keyserling. who
was former President Truman's
chief economic adviser and who
has been a leader here in urging
an openly bold program, put il
to me:
What we must realize is that
the issues have changed since
we were in Office and we must
change with them.

HUNTINGTON. w. Va, July

a worrier. should have gotten ii
all out of her system yesterday
and become strengthened IA
vorite in the Women's Western
Amateur golf championship.
She came as close as you can
to being eliminated in the first
round and still be in the second
round today against Mrs. Paul
Dye, jr., Of indianapolis.
The sensational Young shooter
from Everett. Wash, was two
holes down to Merriam Bailey of
Palatine, H., with only three
holes to play. They drove of
the 10th and waited about is
minutes until a downpour of
rain ended. When they resumed,
the 19-year-old Miss Quasi
matched par four on the next
two holes while her opponent
took DOGGY flves.
Pressure Returns
The pressure returned to Miss
Quasi on the last hole. Her tee
shot on the 135-yard hole landed
about 10 feet from the hole. Miss
Bailey's was only five. Miss Quasi
was equal to the challenge,
shooting first and making the
putt for a birdie two. Miss Bailey,
who had never been behind after
the fourth hole. missed.
BY contrast. Mrs. Dye was
never behind after the third hole
and closed out her match with
Mrs. C. D. Weaver of Huntington,
4 up on the 18th hole.

this means a loss Of $4,000
