HEADLINE PERSONALITY
Don PoorIberg Brings
Change Of Emphasis

For MS economic adviser. the
President has plucked from the
office Of Agriculture Secretary
Benson a former farm boy
from Indiana.
The appointment Of Don
Paarlberg to succeed Gabriel
Hague has caused some fiutter-
ing in economic dovecotes
because the 47-year-old erst-
while Assistant Secretary here
tofore has been exclusively
involved in a farm economy
and his new job will be largely
concerned with much broader
fiscal and monetary questions.
Mr.. Paarlberg, however,
Istoutly maintained TO newsmen
yesterday that he will not go
to the White House as a "spe-
cial pleader" for the tillers Of
the soil.
Economists also point out
that Mr.. Paarlberg is a gradu-
ate of the Cornell School Of
Economics, which is welded to
the conservative view that the
competitive system functions
best without interference from
the Government.
For Limited Government
Mr., Paarlberg said yesterday
he agrees with Lincoln that the
Governments role in the econ
omic field should be limited to
those activities which the peo-
pie themselves are not able to
do. But DR.. Hauge says he
thinks the President and the
people will in due course find
that there is perhaps only
difference of emphasis" be-
tween his fundamental APP
proach and that of Mr.. Paarl-
berg.
Pratical politicians are a
trifle bemused by the appoint
ment, too. Indiana is being hot
ly contested in the current cleo
ton, and it has been set forth
that the appointment of a ma
tive son would be we'll received.
Mr.. Paarlberg's qualifications
were set forth to the Presi-
dent, it is understood, by his
boss, Ezra Taft Benson.
Supposedly in recent months
the rural fraternity has stopped
regarding Mr.. Benson as some
thing Of a blight and he is
flooded with speaking invita-
tons. Leaving all that aside.
Mr.. Benson always has been
tremendously popular with Mr..
Eisenhower, and his advocacy
of his own helper to be helper
to the President won a recep-
tive ear.
Professor at Purdue
! Mr.. Paarlberg came to Mr..
Benson from the campus OF
Purdue. where he had been a
professor of agricultural econ
omy. He has had a first-hand
acquaintance with the subject.

Labor Hits
Business on
Living Cost
BY LEE M. COIN
Star stan writer

Labor unions are determined
TO avoid the wrath of consum-
ers pinched by the high cost
OF living. Blame giant corpora
TONS" the AFL-CIO's Indus
trial Union Department urges
in a pamphlet issued yesterday,
The IuD pamphlet charges
that big business" is using la
Dor as a "scapegoat" for high
prices, in pursuit of the never
ending effort to discredit and
weaken unions"
Actually. 1t contends. labor
has been a victim of imitation
and not the cause of it,"
Cites Wage Lag
Quoting postwar statistics,
the IUD maintains that labor
payments have actually Jagged
behind prices whereas pay
ments to other groups profits,
rental income, taxes, etc. have
gone up in advance of prices. "
Between 1947 and 1857. 1t
states, real wages" rose 35.2
per cent--including fringe BEN
efits-while productivity in
crea sed 81 per cent. Real wages
are iiusted to reflect purchas-
ing power.
Despite rising wages-per-
hour, it asserts, labor costs per
unit of output have Jagged be-
hind prices during the post
war period. and thus labor
has actually failed to share
fully in the growth of our econ
omy."
The labor publication main
tains prices have scared be-
cause big corporations have
abused their great economic
power" and defy market
forces" by raising prices far
more than necessary to cover
increased costs. Instead of cut
ting prices to give consumers
some benefit from chronological
gains, the IUD states, the COM
panies widen already large
profit margins.
Wage boosts are used as a
"pretext" to justify price in
creaseS by big corporations in
such industries as steel and
autos, it is asserted.
Two Price Plans
The publication reviVes two
proposals for restraining price
rises in industries dominated
by a few large companies. I'm
der one plan, these companies
would have to give advance
notice of planned price in
creases and explain them in
public hearings. No compulsion
would be involved. but public
opinion would exert pressure
against excessive increases.
A second plan calls for repre-
sentatives of labor, manage
ment and Government to hold
periodic summit meetings" to
discuss price and wage prob
lens in basic industries.
The IUD comprises the larg-
est group of unions within the
AFL-CIO. It's president is Wal
ter P. Reuther, president of the
United Auto Workers.

New Livestock
Car Protects
Against Weather

st. Paul, MINI. The "Pig
Palace - a revolutionary new
kind of livestock car, equipped
with adjustable shutters for cold
weather protection = has just
been introduced by the Northern
Pacific railway.
The first of a fleet of 200
unique 40-foot, roller-bearing,
double-deck stock cars, designed
by the railway to pamper its pig
passengers, rolled off the assem-
bly, line at NP's Brainerd, Mimi,
car shops this week.
Most unusual features of the
cars, to be used principally in hog
shipments from the Midwest to
the Pacific Northwest, is a sys-
tenn of metal shutters, arranged
in panels, which may be manual
ly adjusted for complete Or par
tial closing of the spaces between
the car side Stats.
This eliminates the need for
coopering or lining the cars with
cardboard to protect the hogs
during cold and inclement wea-
Their, thus removing an item of
expense to shippers or consignees.
The flexibility of the adjustable
shutters also makes it possible to
provide quickly the protection
needed in case of unexpected
changes in weather during ship
ment.
Comfort during hot weather has
not been overlooked either. Alu-
minum paint has been applied to
exteriors of roofs and car ends to
reflect solar heat during summer
months.
NP's new stock cars will be
easily identified by gold and
black emblems on the sides of
each a bearing the name "Pig
Palace" and picturing a happy
porker wearing a crown.
Unlike conventional stock cars,
the pig Palaces are constructed
of steel with the exception of
the flooring. Interior surfaces of
the metal side Stats and shutters
have been insulated to protect the
pigs from injury.
The travelling pigs will also be
in for a comfortable ride with a
minimum of bouncing and jost-
ling. The cars are equipped with
snubbers, devices similar to
shock absorbers, to assure a
smooth ride and with rubber
draft gears to soften shocks of
starting and stopping.
