1t Takes More Money Today
You and | are victims of initiation.
And of taxes The tax collector
has raised his take to nearly %
times the 1889 tax. The cost of
living has more than doubled. The
combination of the two things
brings about a situation which can
be pictured by the following:
To match a 1889 income of $4,-
900, your income now must be S10,-
900, considering additional taxes
and initiation. To match 1889 in
come of $4,000, you have to have
an income now of $4,000, the S10.-
900 difference going for $4,000
extra in taxes and $4,000 for in
flation.
A Basket Full OF Money
President Eisenhower has his own
definition of initiation. He says:
when a housewife takes a purse
full of money to the store and re-
turns with a market basket full
Of groceries, that's normal; but
when she takes a market basket
full of money to the store and re-
turns with a purseful of groceries,
that's inflationn'

edge that win enlarge the outlook

OF course, propaganda thrives
on publicity and prominence, and,
in the process, there is no precise
dividing line between emotional
and rational responses by indi-
viduals or groups. Argumnet. per-
suasion often play conflicting roles.
The strategy of argument can be
summarized as an ability to con-
vince an audience as to the legit-
macy of certain goals or projects
by logical discussion, whereas the
strategy of persuasion in "an
attempt to bring about favorable
response without bringing into
play serious mental activity"

upon defense against manned
bombers-other than retaliation
This fact has been brought out il
the controversy over rival weapons
Top officers of the Army, the Ali
Force and the Navy are in open
disagreement about the Nike ano
the Bomarc and, in fact about the
whole approach to home defense
in a missile era.
The immediate point Of dispute
is: which would do better against
enemy bombers-the Air Forces
jct-powered Bomarc, with a 400
mile range, or the Army's rocket
powered Hercules, with an
8O-mile r9nge? Neither is designed
to stop missiles, only manned
bombers.
The dispute flared into the open
when the Senate Committee on
Armed Services, of which | am a
member, issued a report taking to
task the Pentagon for failure to
make a clear-cut assignment of
functions in air defense, which
failure resulted in a Wasteful over
tapping in weapons systems.

These days, to be able to dis

one must understand the meaning

Committee Makes
Public Settlement

The Presidents Ball Committee
Of the Twin City Council of Clubs
issued the following statement for
publication relative to Fridays
President Bali.
I'VE, who were in charge OF
promoting this affair, appreciate
the tremendous response given this
years Presidents Ball. We consider
the overflow crowd most crafty
ing
1T very definitely indicates the
large following possessed by the
Twin City Council of Clubs-a
following that can be utilized for
just social or recognition function,
as was the case here; or for con-
structive community projects.
However, in regards to Fridays
Ball, the committee must acknow-
ledge with regrets its inability to
anticipate the meteoric growth of
the council within one short year,
Arrangements were made in
view of last years attendance fig
ures. Certainly there was no way
of predicting that this years at
tendance would more than double
that of year ago.
THE results were that it be-
came impossible to have the affair
operated in the manner which we
had so carefully planned. This we
are regretful and apologize for;
but certainly not disheartened."
The tremendous, unprotected
turnout established for us a clearer
goal for next years affair.
I'VE will recommend to the
council to start making arrange
ments now for one of the largest
assembly halls in the city-of one
of at least 1000 person capacity
Finally, we'd like to make a
plea to the individual affiliated
clubs to help assure this affair Of
being a continuing success by get
ting their representatives to be-
come a part of the planning.

club the Council, and its annual

great as it desires to-"

How To RoiSe
DeIinquents In II
EuSV Lessons

(FrOm UnIdaIe NewsIetter)

(FrOm Unidale Newsletter)
Juvenile officers at the Sheriff.
Department in Houston, Texas
have mimeographed a memo that
they give to parents Of waywarc
youngsters who come to their Of,
flee.
1t is entitled Twelve Rules fol
Parents in Raising Juvenile De
linquents."
1. Begin with infancy to give the
child everything he wants. In this
way he will grow up believing the
world owes him a living.
2. When be picks up bad" words
or dirty words, laugh at him
That will make him think he Ii
cute" He will run off and pick uT
some words that will blow the tor
off your head.
3. Never give him any spiritua
training until he is twenty-one anC
then let him decide for himself
BY the same logic, never teach hin
the English language. Maybe when
he is old enough he may want tc
speak Bantu.
4. Praise him in his presence tC
all the neighbors; show how much
smarter he is than the neighbor's
children.
5. Avoid the use Of the WORD
wrong" 1t may develop in the
child a guilt complex" This will
prepare him to believe that wher
he is punished later on for steal
ing cars or assaulting women, so,
ciety is against him" and that he
is being prosecuted.
6. Pick up everything after him
his shoes, his books, his clothes
Do everything for him, so that he
will be experienced in throwing
burdens on others.
7. Let him read anything he
wants. Have no concern whatever
Nor what goes into his mind. Pro.
vide him with lily cups for his lips
but let his brain drink out of any
dirty container for words ant
ideas.
8. Quarrel frequently in the
presence of your children. In this
way they will be prepared fol
broken homes later on.
9. Give him all the spending
money he wants; never let him
earn his own.
10. Satisfy every craving of the
child for food, drinks, and every.
thing that has to do with the sense
of taste and touch, gratifying
every sensual desire.
IL. Take his part against police,
men, teachers and neighbors. They
are all "prejudiced" against your
Nchild.
IL. When he gets into real trou'
'ble, always defend yourself anc
say: II never could do anything
with him"
