AND ECONOMIC GROWTH. The
phenomenal rise of the G m a
economy since World War II, from
the rubble of -obliteration, is
proof of the economic power and
potential Of this country. In the
past decade, Germany's output has
more than doubled and its Gross
National Product almost tripled.
This year, however, the great post
war boom appears to be leveling
off. Although the major force of
the economic explosion brought on
by the reconstruction Of Europe
may now be over. the European
economy should continue to grow
with a greater concentration on
world markets. Already in the past
decade Germany's value of exports
has increased four-fold. will write

HUGH Baillie, son of a great political re-
I porter and grandson of another and
president Of the United Press for many
wears, has written a book entitled High
Tension" 1t is forty-five years Of current
history and is top-notch reading, from
every angle
There are only few top reporters in the
world today Baille dedicated his book to
the reporters of the free world, and he gives
them an inspiration and an example which
will do much for the reporting trade
We recommend this book, not ust to re-
porters, but to every thinking American,
for it tells a story = without prejudice or
bias, as nearly as this can be done about
people, things and news events, and it tells
the story straight. AS Baillie says in his
preface, There is no photography, because

That sentence best expresses the tone and
value of the book which begins with Baillie

NO COMMENT
By JAMES W. DoUTHAT

Washington, D. c.. Oct. - Some
issues before Congress seem never
to die-or even to fade away.
An example is the proposal to
require advance notice OF federal
agencies of corporate mergers if
combined assets involve more than
$40 million
This is but one of several pend
ing proposals to impose new re-
strictions upon the operation Of in
dustry and to make it more diff
cult to meet the nation Sand the
world s-demands for new and i'm
proved products.
Such attempts, one conservative
member of Congress said, point up
the truth in an oft-auoted statement
by the late Morris Sayre, when he
was President of the National As
ISOLATION of Manufacturers, that:
THE idea Of imposing restrictions
on a free economy, to assure free
dom of competition, is like break
