Future OF Electric Power
Whatever happens during the
next few years, the output of cleo
tricity will continue to increase.
This is due both to the fact that
the cost of generating electricity is
gradually decreasing and also to
the fact that demand by municipal
tiles, industries and homes is con-
stantly increasing.
Most readers of my column have
seen house heating change from
the use of coal to that of oil and
gas. l believe that our grandchild-
rem will see electricity take the
place of oil and gas. This electri-
city will supply heat in the winter
and air conditioning in the sum-
mer, as well as operate many home
appliances not yet invented.
We do not see much advertising
of electric power; but the news
papers are full of ads for all kinds
of electric appliances, often with
no down payment required. This
means that there are hundreds of
thousands of dealers who are SELL
ing electric appliances which will
use more electricity. No other in
dustry is in such a favorable stu
alton, with monopoly, in addition.
Although the rates of electric pow
er are controlled by State Com
missions, these Commissions allow
rates which will pay the interest

Bonds Versus Stocks
In view of the continued threat

now yield much more than stocks.
This applies not only to long

issues. Witness the recent issuance
of one-year Treasury bills to yield
4 3/4 percent.

tinental missiles. OF course, infla.
ton has sharply increased the cost
of military hardware and, thus, the
country and the taxpayer does not
get as much for his money today
as he did in World War ii or even
in the Korean Conflict.
There is, of course, too much
waste in the armed services. In
the PentagOn there are countless
numbers of officers and enlisted
men goof1ng off, with jobs that a
child could do, or which can be
done in an hours real work a day
Because of this inefficiency, the
armed services eat up lot of mon
ey with only relatively little of il
finding its way into the actual pur-
chase of hardware, or weapons
There is still too much duplication
also. But taking all this into con-
sideration, and there will always
be waste in military establish
ment, the fact is that we nee0
more money for proper defense.
The Russians should never be al
lowed to develop 3-to-1 edge or
us in the long-range missiles field
Balanced defense is all right, but
this is thought to be the weapon
of the future-just as was the SAC
bomber after World War III. This
country shold always seek to be
first in the number one weapon.
When peace was kept by the
greatest Navy, England kept the
world largely peaceful with its
rulership of the seas. The United
States, with it's monopoly of the
atom bomb and great aeria'
strength and a large SAC bomber
force, managed to keep peace an6
win friends until the Russians also
developed the bomb and then the
hydrogen bomb, and began to put
the pressure on the democracies
with increasing vigor.
We are, officially, relying on
balanced defense - SAC, rockets
Navy air power, TAG, allies, etc
Our retaliation theory is some
thing like that of the French, in the
thirties. They relied on the Magi-
not Line-defense. We cannot ever
start a war, so it is doubly nee
essay that we have enough
strength to strike back hard if we
are ever again the victim of a
surprise attack. But even for 40
billions year, or more, we aren't
getting enough defense to make
this nations future secure. 1t is
frightening prospect, for the
challenge we face is not a weak
one Yet we might as well face
it before our weakness encourages
someone or some nation to make a
mistake. .as.>s y = .-s51@tas'~ 49,

that electronics always depends up

Stocks with Long Dividend Records
When a reader wants. stock for
income, he is interested in the
number of years that the company
has paid dividends. AS the electric
utilities are young, they have not
generally had long record. Many
insurance companies, gas COM
panies, and the like have been pay
ing dividends for about a hundred
years. For instance, the New Ha-
ven Gas Company has been paying
dividends for ITO years; the
Travellers Insurance has been pay
ing for SO years; the New Haven
Water Company 50 years; and the
H ONE Insurance Company, in
which l am a great believer, for
sc years.
The following are a few other
such companies coming to my
memory. Their stocks are all COM
mon shares as preferreds did not
exist so long ago. The Aetna (Fire)
Insurance Company has paid divi-
dends for 81 consecutive years;
the Hartford Fire Insurance, 81
years: National Fire Insurance, S8

THE RUSSIAN MENACE

Every thinking person must real
ize that the United States today is
challenged by a menace which is
far more ominous than that-ter-
rible as it was-posed by Adolph
Hitler's Nazi Germany.
The really frightening thing
about it all, however, and the thing
some of us don't realize, is the fact
that the balance of power is shift
ing steadily to the Communist ma
lions. Russia is getting out front
in the race for intercontinental
missiles. Defense Secretary Neil
McElroy admits we will have a 8
to l inferiority by 1962-in num-
bers.
The whole world knows the Rus
slams have better rocket engines,
more powerful ones, than we have.
They fired off the first satellites.
They are reported to be planning
to put man on the moon in nine
months, or just slightly longer than
that. They have, and have long
had, far greater conventional mill
tary strength, certainly in num-
bers, on land and in the air.
If we are pushed out of Berlin,
it will be the most dangerous set
back we have suffered, because it
will endanger our alliance with
West Germany. That is Russia's
game-to discredit us and weaken
US in the eyes of the key country in
Europe, Germany. We cannot al
low our relationship with West
Germany to be endangered.
Thus, it would be folly to ap-
pease Russia on Berlin. We must
take our stand and defend our
rights. and il there is to be a war,
then it would be better to fight it
now, than later, perhaps after we
have lost West Germany as an
ally.
DOWN IN CUBA
There is impressive information,
from reliable sources, that Com
munism is stronger in Cuba today
than anyone realizes. For example.
the Chief of Staff of the Cuban Air
Force recently resigned and charg-
ed that the country was being infil-
trated and brought under the con-
troll of the Communists.
Fidel Castro's brother is said to
be a pro-communist, if not an
avowed one. Castro is said to lean
toward the Reds, though knowing
full well that he cannot give vent
to his sentiment all the way, be-
cause of the pressure which might
come from the United States
against him. -. -ss-~s

Looking at
WASHINGTON

President Eisenhower = at his
conference on the first day of this
month-said the United States can
not close it's eyes to what is going
on in Cuba.
The various invasiOns being plan
ned in Cuba are thought to be the
work of underground and unseen
communist agitators, who seek to
gain power via other revolutions
and revolutionary governments.
If the situation in Cuba continues
as it now is going, steadily toward
the left and with increasing signs
of communist influence and grow
ing strength, the United States
must step in and clean the mess up,
before it infects Central and South
America in other places. For this
we will be condemned, but it may
be necessary if conditions grow
worse.
SPARKMAN, PATTERSON
AND KENNEDY
In Alabama an interesting politi-
cal situation is developing. 1t con-
Germs Senator John Kennedy, a
leading presidential contender in
the Democratic party, the Cover
nor of Alabama, and Senator John
Sparkman, of Alabama.
1t has been expected by most
observers, and is still expected by
many, that Alabama would-at the
Democratic Convention in 1860
finally wind up supporting the most
moderate candidate available. This
is generally conceded to be Major
ity Leader Lyndon B. Johnson.
Governor Patterson, how yer,
crossed up those who expected him
to follow this line, and suddenly
announced he was for Kennedy.
We do not know what the out
come of the Alabama situation will
be, although we suspect that Ala
bama's delegates will be for the
most moderate candidate at Los
Angeles, simply because the peo-
pie of Alabama will demand that.
Thus the political situation de-
veloping in Alabama is an unusual
one.

The average citizen finds it hard
to believe, in 1859, when we are
spending over forty billions a year
on defense, that a lot of Senators
and Congressman are convinced the
United States is once again unpre-
pared.

spend that much and still be un-
prepared, but the United States is

MOUTH-TO-MOUTH RESPIRATION

MOUTH-TO-MOUTH RESPIRATION
The American Red Cross has made it Off
cial-the best way to save drowning victim
is by use of the Mouth to-mouth" system.
The system is rather simple, and it is a
wonder it had not been discovered before
now. The first thing to do, with victim, is
to tilt the head backward. The mouth should
be opened, and the base of the tongue should
be moved away from the back of the throat,
and any obstruction in the mouth removed
Then, the reScuer opens his mouth as wide
as possible and places it tightly over the vic
TINS mouth, pincing the victims nostrils
closed, and blows into the lungs at the rate
of about once every five seconds-for an
adult.
For a child, one blows little less hard
every three seconds.
After blowing into the victims lungs
remove the mouth and see if you hear the
flow of air, coming out of the lungs. Repeat
the process in any event. although if you do
not hear any exchange of air, you might re-
check the head and jaw position, to be sure
there is no obstruction.
An additional tip, in saving a child, is to
up-end. it by holding the ankles and admins
tering two or three sharp slaps on the back
between the shoulder blades. An adult, who
might be too heavy to be lifted in such fash
ion, can be turned on his side, and the blows
place. Or, he too, can be appended, if poss-
ible.
You might clip this editorial out and save
it, for it may be responsible for saving some
ones life this summer, or in later years.

ALWAYS TRY TO BUY AT HOME
1t is about time for the Chronicle to again
remind the people of this county that local
merchants deserve chance to supply their
needs.
Whenever you have anything to buy, give
local business houses an opportunity to serve
ponds upon willingness to cooperate in the
common good, and one way to do this is to
patronize home concerns whenever possible.
We do not urge any person to pay an ex-
orbitant price for any goods. 1t is the bust
ness of sellers to meet competition. They
must do this if they expect to stay in bust
ness. 1t is their obligation if they desire the

sword shall never depart from
thine house; because thou hast
despised me, and hast taken
the wife of Uriah the Hittite to
be thy wife"
Even a king when he vio-
lates the sacredness of human
personality is guilty before
God of despising him and ha-
ting his commandments. Da-
vid had pronounced judgment
upon himself even before he
knew that he was the guilty
one.
d A VID' S REPENT
ANCE AND JUDGMENT:
"And David said unto Ma
than, l have sinned against the
Lord. And Nathan said unto
David. The Lord also hath
put away thy sin; thou shalt
not die" - When David saw
that he was condemned in the
sight of the Lord he repented
of his crime and acknowledge
his sin. And because of his
humility and confession before
God he was spared the pen
atty of death, nevertheless the
rest of the judgment of God
still stood against him. "How-
belt, because by this deed thou
hast given great occasion to
the enemies of the Lord to
blaspheme, the child also that
is born unto thee shall surely
die" Forgiveness does
not remove all of the conse-
quences of evil acts. One of
the worst aspects of a believ-
er'S sin is the disgrace it brings
on Gods cause.
PRACTICAL POINTS ON
THE LESSON:
Nathan, Speak fearlessly for
COD: he was a great preacher
the prophet Nathan, and his
congregation was none other
than David the king. The
prophet was very personal in
his message, for he said to the
king. Thou art the man." Da-
vld was one of the most highly
gifted men in the Old Tesla
ment. His name occurs more
than any other human name
IN the Bible, namely. 112O
times. This man was called
OF God and was obedient, be-
ing full of faith and courage.
David was great shepherd, a
great musician, a sweet singer.
a great leader, man of pray
er, a man of sorrow, a man of
joy, a great soldier, a great
poet, a great prophet, a great
king and a great author. Yet
David committed a great sin.
And Repented and confession
was made, for sin.
