Meeting thread: The problems are not su-
perflclal; they derive from the most COM
pick Of phenomena. having their origins in
logy and emotions in the long centuries Of
human history TO believe that money alone
is the remedy is like believing aspirin cures

It il odd that We should even half-bclieve
For in our own daily lives we know the
score perfectly we'll. Money isn't every
thing, We say as a more or less Joking
trulsm but we understand in all serious
ness the truth behind the truism 49, that
money does not guarantee a successful mar
rage Or good children, and that a man may
be rich and still tormented Conversely,
most people would not in fact lido any
thing for money; even in choosing Jobs,
where there is a choice, money il hardly
ever the sole criterion.
Our exalted notion of the benefits of Fed
era money might be considered harmless
deception But deception about matters of
grave public policy is never harmless And
one Of the saddcst things about our money
fixatlon is that it is leading us to destroy
the value Of what is, after all a very pleas
ant thing to have around.

China A Danger Point

he gave in to strong demands from the
Chinese communists. It is also reported
that the Chinese communists won conces-
sions from khrushchev
In past years it has been reported by var
ious authorities that the Chinese are more
eager to start brush fire wars. and trouble
in general, than are the Russians. 1t must
be remembered that the Chinese have 600,-
100000 inhabitants and that communist
leaders do not worry too much over the
thought Of losing several million Chinese
While smaller in total area and in re-
sources, China is far superior to even Rus

brutally atheistic point Of view the Chinese

constitutes one Of the greatest dangers to

IT'S an i'll wind that blows nobody good.
The current controversy over schools has
increased the interest of parents in the

local level, but also on the state level
Progressive education, whatever t h a t

and under attack in many sections. We

good. except that 1t does not go far
enough in the way of increasing
benefits Several other witnesses
took the same position
What are the real facts?
On the basis Of about an eight
per cent increase in the cost Of llv-
ing since the last hike in social Sc
curity benefits, it may even be
possible to develop an argument in
defense of an increase On the other
hand, it must be remembered the
social security system is currently
operating at deficit its outlay IS
| greater than its revenues.
Existence OF this deficit is one of
\ the reasons for increasing OASI
| taxes The estimated tax increase
would be $l8 billion more than
1857. This, it is alleged, will not
only eliminate the deficit but will
1 take care Of the increased benefits,
too. There is room for grave doubt
| ii would do So
| Even more important is the pos
sible effect Of such a tax increase
on prices. About half of the total
would be paid by employers. To
| them it means an increase in the
| cost OF production. Today's profits
/ are not adequate to absorb such an
| increase in cost There would be a
| strong tendency in many in
stances, a necessity to boost
prices.
/ The Federal-state welfare through
grants-ln-aid program would add to
/ the federal deficit Granted 1888
million is a small fraction of cur
rcntly estimated sl2 billion deficit.
But. small fraction will have an
effect, and in this instance 1t is on
the side Of initiation
This is not a matter of believing
Of not believing in social security.
Even the most ardent advocate of
OASI must insist the system be
operated on sound basis and not
simply result in a paying-out of dol
lars which have a constantly de-
Ginning purchasing power. For that
| reason everyone, including benc-
flclaries, would be better off if We

The Money Fixation

ALMOST everybody. i may be stated with
: out fear Of serious contradiction, likes
money; in fact, most Of Us think it's thing
delightful vel as highly useful to have
around. Yet we in this supposedly hard
headed country have lately been develop
ing cuiiousy unrealiStic idea of what
money especially Federal money. can ac-
compliSh.
# money alone could give our children a
sound education. no one would bcgrudge

could stabilize the Middle East and bring
peace in the world 500 billion for foreign
assistance would De cheap at twice the
price If money alone could keep us from
having slumps without initiation, almost
any amount would be tolerable If money
alone could rid our cities of sums, $40 bill
lion a year, or whatever was necessary
would be a modest fee

money actually were the answer in all these
cases The first AID almost only visible re-
action to the educational Weaknesses point

to the slum problem - and a host of other
problems has been Federal spending
The facts, of course, are otherwise
Lack Of Federal money is not the trouble
with education. Schools are being built with
local funds, and in not 4 few cases educa-
tlon even suffers because the construction
is TOO lavish; nor will $4,000 Federal scho
arships remedy the ills The trouble lies
deep in American attitudes toward educa-
ton. The schools Will be improved ONLY
when we as people decide we want them
to produce not cooks and social confHmists
but educated men and women
Money is not the key to the Mideast
deadlocks. Indeed, Western money is viewed
with profound suspicion there The troubles
lie in ancient animosities and rival forces,
and they may we'll defy any part or pack
age solution in any near future But ONLY
when political accommodations do become
possible can money be usefuly employed.

For many m On / h S it has been

Social Security bill passed by Con

there has been Social Security
bill in every national election year
since. including 1852, "A, So and
now, 1858.
| Some weeks ago the House Ways
and Means Committee conducted

any one particular bill Out Of those
| hearings came III r. l3549 This bill
passed the House by a vote OF 375
to z and went to the Senate where

nance Committee The Committee,
probably aware Of an early ad-

| the bill to two days.

| changes In the l06page document,

| first TO increase social security

assistance paym ents through
grants-in aid 70 the states welfare

In connection with OASI, the bill
provides for an increase in benefit

minimum Of So per month; for

Arthur Flemming, Secretary OF
Health. Education and Welfare. was
the first witness to appear before
the Senate Finance Committee. He
naturally, presented the Admins
tration's thinking. which is that the
changes IN social security both
benefits and taxes are desirab bic
and should be enacted He said
! however that on the public assIs-
lance issue. the Administrator be-

ferent Not because present pay
