will be due to the need for more
facilities and services for the grow
ing sector OF our population above
the age of 65.
New Boost For Labor
Since I anticipated another mark
ed increase in births in this coun-
try beginning probably about 1855
and continuing for several years,
by 1878 we could well have, in a
population of 225,000,000: 25.000,-
900 aged SIS or over and about 75,-
000,0 under 49, That means we
will have fewer workers to support
more people than at any other time
in our history. Labor viii once
again be in the saddle riding high,
wide, and handsome. Chemists.
physicists, engineers, and other
skilled specialists will be IN heavy
demand.
There is only one method by
which business can counteract the
disastrous impact of this expected
scarcity of manpower- 1t must make
a greater and more effective. use
of the techniques of automation.
Otherwise there will not be suffi-
cient assurance of earnings to at
tract needed capital for expansion
and for replacement of outnoded
plant and equipment. Perhaps the
biggest single problem facing man
agement over the next twenty years
is manpower and the cost of that
manpower. Attenuation is the only
answer can see. l predict that
companies making machines or
other equipment designed to cut
labor costs will have an unusually
bright future

to shortening of the work week.
Most companies have found their
actual mortality experience more
favorable tEal that anticipated in
the calculations upon which their
premiums were based. Also the life
companies have had the advantage
of vastly increased investment
earnings because of large gains in
premium income and the sharp up
turn in general business since
World War II.
/ believe life insurance companies
stand to make further spectacular
gains as life expectancy is bettered.
Those insured by mutual companies
should see total premium costs de-
cline as diviSfnds are boosted.
Thofe insured by stock companies
should sse:.efit from lower premium
rates or increases in coverage at
little or no increase from present
rates. Longer life expectancy can
not help but enhance the fortunes
of the stock companies, of which
Aetna and Travellers are the larg-
est.
AS longevity increases, the period
between retirement age and death
will widen. This will mean addi-
tional problems for government and
business. Sharp increases in taxes
levied upon employers and en-
ployees for social security lie a.
head. Boosts in contributions of
management and employees to pri-
vate pension plans will be equally
stiff.
In addition I predict that federal,
state and local taxes generally will
move to new high levels. Some of

Another Big Drop
In Polio Cuses
Noted Lost Year
~ the Associated Press

Another sharp drop in the
number Of polio cases last year
was reported TODAY by the
United States Public Health
Service.
The service said tentative
figures put the number Of cases
during 1857 at 5.e94. That COM
pares with l5.400 in the previ-
GUS year and 29.270 in 1855. the
first year In which Salk polio
vaccine was generally used.
The number Of cases OF par
alytic polio last year was put at
2.l59. compared with 1911 cases
In the calendar year 1856 and
1880 In 1855.
Thus the incidence Of all
types Of poliomyelitis declined
50 per cent in 1857 as compared
with 1856. and paralytic cases
declined about 70 per cent" the
service said.
The report showed that the
attack rate for paralytic cases
was twice as high as the nom
paralytic rate In persons under
5 years OF age. while the nom
paralytic rate was twice as high
In the 5-to-9 age group. The
highest attack rate for para
lytic cases occurred In children
! and 2 years OF age.
The service said the attack
rate was significantly lower
among persons who had re-
ceived polio vaccine.
