Incentive Or Fear?
We who are fortunate enough to
live under a free-enterprise system
wonder how Russia can achieve eff
ficiency and progress without CIV
ing rewards in the form of increas-
ed salaries or gold-braid uniforms
Such rewards are being given in
Russia to a certain extent; but as
there are no labor unions or strikes
there are no wage increases ex-
cept to those who produce more. In
fact, the motto is: Those who do
not produce cannot eat unless dis
abled," Furthermore, since the gov
erment owns everything and no one
gets private profits, the factory and
farm workers are told "the factory
or farm in which you work really
belongs to you"
Although l speak without author
ity or actual knowledge, | feel that
fear is an economic factor. Certain
ly thei fear of very severe punish
ment prevents graft from develop
ing in some part of this great eco
nOmic machine. This fear may per-
colate through every family and
worker. How long this universal
fear can continue without a blow
UP only the future can tell. This is

years gone. by babies who never re.
ceiyed sunshine developed ricketts,
and their bones did not grow strong
and straight. However. these days
we know that sunshine-that is,
the ultraviolet rays of the sun
change a substance normally pres
ent in the skin into vitamin ID which
then circulates around the baby's
body and keeps his bones in good
condition. Nowadays we know how
to give vitamin ID to babies by

for them to get this vitamin only

Use. Common Sense
Going outdoors is pleasant and
fun. Think of it this way. Do 1t just
as often as you can manage be-
cause you will enjoy it. But when
the weather is bad. whether it's
too hot or too cold or too windy
or just not very good, don't feel
guilty if you stay at home.
Sometimes young mother has
so much to do inside her house
that she. cannot seem to squeeze
in the time to. take her baby out
doors. Once in while maybe it's
a good idea to let some of the
house~ork go and relax in the sun
shine. However, if an hour or two
outdoors means mother is up until
midnight getting her ironing done,
there is not much relaxation to
that!
If you give your baby plenty of
good food, adequate yitamins and
safe airy place for wiggling, he'll
do all right in the house. Enjoy
your outings whenever you can
manage them but don't feel guilty
when you skip them.

THE FAMILY FALLOUT
SHELTER

In every community. and in this
one, people have thought recently
about fallout shelters. Unfortunate
ly, not enough has been done about
them.
One of the ominous realities we
must face today is that if nu-
clear war develops we will not
then have time to provide this ade-
quate shielding against radiation
After the sirens sound, and after
the bomb. or bombs, have been
dropped, it will be too late for us
to protect our families and loved
ones.
Of course, in recommending con-
structing a family fallout shelter
some may conclude that we are
being premature. This is not true
Even if the shelter is never used
it is a wise precaution for the
thinking family to take, and il
can be used in time of emergency,
during a severe storm, such as a
tornado, and for other purposes
But even if it is never used, it is
certainly better to be prepared to
avoid fatal doses of radiation, by
acting in time, even if a nucleaT
war does develop, than to be unpTe-
pared-and at the mercy of events
The Office of Civil and Defense
Mobilization has compiled a book
let giving instructions for the
building of fallout shelter. The
booklet gives instructions for
building a basement shelter, and
general instructions for building
an outdoor shelter.

BABSON DISCUSSES THE RUSSIAN ENIGMA

Moscow, Russia, Nov. 5. After
travelling two days from Warsaw,
Poland through Russia, we have
remained about one week in Mos
COW. 1t certainly is a wonderful
city, with 100000 people plus
100000 in the suburbs; but, of
course, to comment on Communism
after such short visit would be
foolish.
Freedom To Investigate
Many Americans report that they
are compelled to tour with Com
munist guides who show them only
what the Russian rulers wish them
to see. This | do not believe. First
because of the language difference,
guides who can talk English are
absolutely ary. English
speaking persons are very, very
scarce here Second, / can testify
that our guide-a woman-tOok us
everywhere we asked to go. She
had no prescribed route; also,
every question we asked she an
swered frankly. Furthermore, tour
lists from the United States are we'll
treated, especially since Mr.. KS

Unfortunately, the weather has
been against us. 1t seemed very
cold to us; two days it showed
hard, which made it impossible to
see much from our taxi; but the
guide took us into every building
we asked to see. Let me add that
our q. S. Embassy here was most
helpful.

YOU'RE WORKING FOR THE
GOVERNMENT

If you ever wonder why taxes and govern
ment debt are at outer-space levels, some
facts issued by New York Bank may help
to clarity matters.
One out of every six employed Ameri-
cans is now on a government payroll. Since
1900 private employment has increased 100
per cent-and government employment 65O
per cent.
The Federal government runs about 2O,-
900 commercial-industrial enterprises, with
capital assets of some $12 billion, in direct
competition with private business.
Federal aid to states, local communities
and individuals totals about $7.2 billion a
year. By way of comparison, the figure was
$147 million in 1880.
We have swollen government, socialistic
government, and paternal government. 1t de,
vours taxes. even as it discourages and
sometimes destroys taxpaying private en-
terprise That's one of the big reasons why
taxes, direct and indirect take about 30 per
cent of our income.

These are especially serious
charges, and they should be con-
sidered carefully by every Ameri-
can. On several occasions in the
past Senator Symington has been
only too right concerning our mis-
sile and rockets program.
Until the Administration can
prove otherwise, sSenator Syming-
toms charges will concern many
Americans. If it is indeed true that
we cannot shoot rocket to the
moon for a period of years, and
we are that far behind, the present
Administration will noA doubt be

people.
AFTER THE EIGHTY DAYS
The chief of President Eisenhow-
er's steel strike inquiry board re-
Gently became discouraged because
neither side, in the current steel
dispute, would even define the
issues.
1t will be remembered that when
DR.. George w. Taylor, the chair
man, first began his task he was
hopeful that perhaps settlement
might be worked out Evidently
DR.. Taylor was under the impress
sion-as some other Americans
were-that in the long strike the
two sides had been negotiating, or
at least discussing the issues and
trying to get down to bargaining.
This raises the question of what
will happen after the union mem
bers are required to return to work
for eighty days, and this period of
work has expired. Under the Taft
Hartley labor law, and other labor
laws, there is no clear remedy, or
method, by which the President
could restore operations in the
steel industry. Presumably, the
strike could be begun all over
again, and there would be no eighty
day injunction available for use.
This could turn into an even more
serious, prolonged strike.
If this occurs, the economy of the
United States will suffer drasti-
cally, and the budget may not be
balanced in the current fiscal year.
1t should also be remembered
that Congress will be in session if
and when a new strike. following
an eighty-day working period, be-
gins. The President could also go
to Congress with any emergency
proposal, and if the national in
terests were vitality involved, Con-
gress would probably give him
what he wanted.

terprise system, the like of which
we have not seen before, may be
in the making-and it may be four

NOT COMPARABLE

No one can forecast with any certainty
what any corporation stock-or the stock
market in general-will do in the future. On
that market, as in all phases of life change
is the rule. Values rise and values fall.
But certain principals can be laid down.
Sylvia Porter, the well known financial col
umnist, recently dealt with one.
Numbers of people, noting the heavy
stock market activity of late years, have
wondered if there is parallel today with the
conditions that led to the dread collapse of
1929. In Miss Porters informed view the
1929 market was gamblers market. Stocks
were bought on aper-thin-margins, in the
hope of quick profit People of very small
means risked everything in get-rich-quick
speculations.
Now Miss Porter points out, the differ
ences are basic. In her words, g. .tOday's
stockholder has his own cash In the market;
he really OWNS his securities"
On top of that, she goes on, today's stock
holder is different breed of cat from that of
1929-"He is primarily middle-income in
dividual with EXTRA money to put into the
stock market. The word extra is crucial, for
this means stockholders in our nation today,
are not playing with the rent money. Of the
12,400000 individual shareholders in our
nation today, almost half are in the $4,000
$4,000 bracket and the average stockholder
has household income of $1,000"
To repeat, no one can guarantee what will
happen to the value of stock. But today'S
market is built on ownership rather than
margins, and is not comparable to that of
1929.
