He went on to explain that
there are a number of reasons
for the delays. These include

which require the commission
to drop one job and take UP
another.
Lillywhite Comments
Commission Member B. Alden
Lillywhite commented that the
status of the reports. referred
to by Mr.. Lundberg pointed
up the need for the proposed

tllaL general agreement nae
been reached between the
commission and Mr.. Lundberg
on these points:
/. Raise the salaries of
zoning Administrator William
Kennedy and two department
planners.
2. Hire three more planners
and an economic analyst.

basic steps toward urban re-
newal and redevelopment.
4. Revise the coming ordi-
nances and explore the posi-
bilities for establishment of a

$12.5OO Salary
On the question of a planning
co-ordinator. the commission
proposed that the post be Sec
ond only to the county manager
and carry a minimum $12,500
salary.
The position would be filled
by the county manager, but
with the approval of the COM
mission.
Commission Chairman James
H. Berkey told the board that
Arlington planning problems
need "a dynamic professional
leader. to get amastef plan on
the books.
However, Mr.. Lundberg took
an opposite view. stating that
this proposal called for further
consideration.
Pertinent Factor
The county manager then
went on to say in effect, that
a more pertinent factor in the
planning picture was that the
commission has been dragging
its feet.
Mr.. Lundberg said he was
aware that the commission has
a heavy schedule with its dual
advisory duties on both long,
range planning and individual

However. the county manager
said. he could see no reason

Babson Discusses Labor Outlook

Babson Park. Mass. July IL.
Like it or not. labor Is a commod-s
ity depending on supply and de-
mand. Labor unions can raise
wages temporarily just as a dam
can raise the height of stream.
But the dam does not destroy the
water; sooner or later the water
flows over the dam. or the stream
dries up
Let Us Look At Birth Rates
During the thirties. birth rates
in the u S. had been running
about II per thousand. Just be-
fore World War II, in 1888, the
birth rate was l7.6 per thousand,
and in l943 it was 21.5. Then it
began TO fall. and slipped lower
through the rest Of the war years.
This was accompanied by scare
ity Of men due to the draft, with
a surplus of women workers.
While normal manufacturing was
greatly curtailed. the war created
an excessive demand for labor for
war industries. Therefore, labor
adjusted itself fairly we'll
The war had two closings, but
the boys began to return from
Europe in May l945 and babies
began to arrive in 1916. This
means that the postwar crop of
babies is now under twelve years
OF age The birth rate is now
running around 24.2 per thousand
and the schools are becoming
crowded, especially in the ele-
mentary grades. As the women
who went to work during the war
become older, they are dropping
out Of the job market. This ac-
counts in part, for the shortage
Of labor, the increased wages, and
the inefficiency of much of the
labor. Every employer complains
about it; but ] see nothing that
Gan be done.
What About The Outlook

crop Of babies is now under twelve

Business Outlook Encouraging

ALTHOUGH there are conflicting opin-
ions on the coming trend of business,
various surveys, appraisals and forecasts
lead TO the inevitable conclusion that con
tlnued good business is ahead That does
not mean business will pick up immediate
~. but it does mean that within the next
three or four months. business will proba-
bly, gradually move forward again
The business pick up predicted by most
Of the experts is not one of the boom yari-
ETY. It Is gradual pick up, which will be
brought on by increased consumer spend
ing, record incomes and increased Govern
ment spending which will be At 4 record
rate in peacctime
Business is expected to be good in the
last few months of this year and into the
first six months of 1858. Even then though
il mkht level off. 1858 is expected to be
q good year
Of course. what some Of the economists
overlook are the weak spots in the econe
my The farmers are in a squeeze and so
are some other segments of the population
Nevertheless, vi h record Government
spending and record consumer income, plus
rapdly-rising population, there is still
money 70 be made and still good business
conditions ahead in the coming year or two.

Slight Hope For Disarmament

4 DMIRAL Arthur wv. Radford chairman
Of the Joint Chiefs of Staff has stated
fatty that negotiations with the Russians
on disarmament cannot be expected to pro-
duce security OF a desirable, disarming
agreement
The AdmiraPs words came IN the form
of an expression that the Russians cannot
III trusted on anything, since they have
broken all the agreements made with the
United States in the past In other words
the chairman Of the Joint Chiefs poured
cod water on negotiations now in progress
between the United States and Russian Of
ficiaiS In London designed to lead toward
disarmament
Tho Admrals statement is significant
in that it comes at time when both Har-
old +. Stassen, President Eisenhower's
special assistant for disarmament. and
President Eisenhower are Of the opinion
that the Russians are more serious about
disarmament now than they ever have
been. The President evidently thinks the
quest for disarmament is not Ia hopeless

Admiral Radford's opinion Ile has the
weight Of all evidence of the past on his
side. and il is impossible for anyone to
prove that he is wrong. However, President
Eisenhower seems ITO represent that school
VI Thought holdngIto the theory that where
there is still life, there is hope. and il is in
this that the President and Admiral Rad
ford find themselves in disagreement. If
the President felt that no possible prog
ress GOULD come Of the London disarma-
nent talks. he would probably have dis
continu ed them Long ago.
Il is worth noting here that the burden

Cat in Water Meter

EDGAR ALLEN POE once told the story
= of cat walled up in house, and there
by created literary classic. The Vincent
Carta family of Glendora Calf, also told
the story of a cat walled up in their house.
What they created was a search and rum
maging and bordering, not to mention a
burst Of nationwide publicity.
For moro than three weeks, the Carta
family heard d cat meowing somewhere
in the hidden recesses of their new house
At first this was disconcerting; after a.
while it became downright annoying. and
Mrs. Carta threatened to move out If the
cat was not found.
Science came to the rescue A sound
traced the faint meow to the bathroom
Then it was discovered that the meow was
caused by the water meter Here is a
golden opportunity for some later-day Poe
TO create masterpiece Of supense con-
corning the water meter that was walled
up in house under suspicious circum-
stances

AS a result of the above con-

of a factory or office automatic
