Imbalance Of theology

CCIENCE has outstrlpped culture IN
~ materialistic world. This conclusion was
reached in recent discussion with Young
scientist Of considerable stature who has
spent his recent years in the atomic energy
field. Young and ambitious he has vide ex-
perence in the field of science and the ways
and the people of the world. He, like many
others, measures the future Of America in
the critical and stragetic developments OF
science for defense against ruthless ad-
versary Russia. Scientific Developments IN
the field of defensive and retallatory Wea-
pons are of prime importance. Scientists
are spurred on by the reported competitive
position of Russia. We agree science must
be the No. / project for the foreseeabe fu-
ture in America.
We believe there is an imbalance to be
seriously considered between science and
the cultural arts Most schools. many col
leges, mass media, etc. are under empha-
sizing the stable fundamentals of life Lib
eral Arts Colleges are few and liberal arts
colleges in the Universities are low in pop
ularity Why? One reason is that a scientist
can obtain position, generally with high
er returns than may be had in the field of
liberal arts graduates Science is demand
ing more scientists. The field is attractive,
security is stable, and research boundless.
But what may it profit to have nation
Of scientists, if balance Of culture is not
maintained Destructive weapons are one
thing, the ability to control their use, and
the patriots who will use them defensively
are not to be overlooked in the mad rush

is still a good bargain Another i'm
portant thing to consider is the great i'm

There is hardly such thing as seasonal

delicacy you might want and your grocer
has it in stock - at any time Of the year -

There have been tremendous changes in
the food industry in recent years Farmers

has a research staff and issues a
monthly review. In the June issue
Of the review there is long article
on creeping imitation. which is
worthy of attention.
First the usual arguments for a
or per cent annual rise in the
price level are presented-that it
is necessary if the nation is to
realize its full growth potential and
prevent massive unemployment;
that it would encourage investment
by business; that through increased
income no one would lose appreci-
ably; and that for those who hold
bonds or other fixed interest OBJ
legations full protection could be af-
forded by introducing the principle
Of price level oscillation. All Of this
is old hat and has been heard so
many times it's amazing it still car
ries weight.
Real Effects Of Little" Initiation
Second, the article analyses what
the real effects Of even a small
annual increase in prices would be
on the various segments Of the
economy. This is the significant
part of the discussion. Some Of the
high spots:
If slow but steady rate Of
general initiation were to be toll
Grated as a form of surrender to
the inevitability Of price increases
in the administered price and
organized labor industries. the end
result would be the transfer Of pur
chasing power to the workers and
management in these industries at
the expense of those whose savings
are being deprecated. or who are
unable to increase income in pace
with price increases.
Anyone lending money would
want to stipulate either very
high rate Of interest or repayment
in "escalator dollars or some COM
bination Of BOTH In other words,
creeping initiation would mean high
er, not lower, rates Of interest, and
even if it did increase investment
for a year or so, the mix Of this
investment boom would. for ex-
ample. probably include more and
more speculative buying Of land,
and discriminate against schools
and the other kinds of investments
that are essential to provide the
structure required for long
term growth"
AS to the international ramifica-
tons it is said: deliberate adop-
ton OF steady initiation would GER
tainly impair the ability Of this
country's producers to compete.
BIO h in our own markets and
abroad, with those other countries
who have learned in their way to
combat initiation, and who are
strongly committed to maintaining
price stability"
Oscillation is not an answer to
creeping initiation. in Finland, for
example. where an extensive net
work of escalators was introduced
a few years ago the expert
ment has already run its course.

Farmers and Food Costs

MANY farmers "ears are burning be-
w cause of critical remarks cast in their
direction in the daily news. Well, nobody is
prfect, but let's see if all Of this criticism
i justified. Let's look into the subject Of
God costs.
Food like everything else, has gone up in
price We hear lot about initiation today,
so it would be difficult to measure the true
cost Of an item by price alone. How about
the work time required to purchase a given
item today, compared to a given time in the
past? That should be a fair enough STAN
dard of measurement.
Here is how many minutes factory
worker had to work to earn enough money
to buy a given item in two comparable per-
ods of time:

Pittsburgh Quarte r back
Bobby Layne had a bad case
of laryngitiS which police may
have misunderstood for drunk
enness, his attorney claimed
yesterday.
Frank Erwin said Layne was
so hoarse he could barely speak
and quoted three other pro-
fessional football players as
saying that Layne had only
lone or two beers" following
Saturday nights exhibition
football game.
Layne was arrested at $50
am. Sunday and charged with
driving while intoxicated, driv-
ing without a license and leav-
ing the scene of an accident.
"Layne's extreme hoarseness,
which may have led the police
to suspect intoxication, was
the result of a severe case OF
laryngitis from which he has
been suffering for about two
weeks" Erwin said.
County authorities said the
case will be given routine
treatment. The case may not
be set until September 9 on
the drunk driving charge. He
has IL days to answer the
other complaints.

ANGLE

Baltimore Colts have not reach

victories over the College ALL

The champions, Ewbank says,

worth a warning to the Red
skins, the message was relayed
to Coach Mike Nixon, who is
tuning up his men for Fridays

only smiled.
They look pretty good to
me-" he said. land / think
they may be a little ahead of

To most TV-viewers, who
saw the Colts take the All-Stars
apart and clobber the Giants.
they seemed to be in mid-sea-
son form. They looked good
enough to play a double-head-
er, spotting each opponent IL
points.
y -
Nixon is glad the Colts look
good and seem to be as sharp
as when they defeated the
Giants in a sudden-death over
time for the title last Deem
Der. He plans to start almost
an all-rookie defensive team in
Baltimore for a good reason.

they do, we've got something.
