POLITICS AND PROSPERITY"
After ten months. 100000. tesu-
mony from over 100 expert wit
nesses and the preparation of %
study papers by outside consul
tants, the Democratic majority OF
the Joint Economic Committee
concluded in a just-published re-
port that the United States, in the
past six years. has failed to
realize" a high and stable rate of
employment, growth in the national
output and productive capacity,
and stability in the general level
Of prices.
There are so many half-truths,
neutrality-suspicious. and basic eco
homie fallacies in the Majority re-
port that as a minority member of
the Joint Economic Committee,
felt it imperative to rcbut and re-
flute its findings in 41-page in
dividual opinion.
First in the field of employment
there are six million more people
employed today than there were
back in 1852. Second. in the field
Of national production, the coun-
trys income has increased S1O6.i
billion in the past seven years.
Third, in the field of prices, the
consumer price index has risen
only Il percent in the past seven
years as contrasted with the 48
percent rise during the seven
years of the Truman Administra-
ton. If I'll this be failure the
American people. it would seem,
have made the most Of it to their
delight and benefit.
Furthermore, the report neglects
certain very important economic
yardst,cks. For instance, per capita

Arias Takes
Panama Lead

PANAMA, May 9 (AP) Ri
cardo Arias Espinosa, backed
by the incumbent administra-
ton. took a slim early lead in
the first returns of Panama's
presidential election.
The count from 100 of the
country's $50 precincts gave
Mr.. Arias 1O,3O2 votes; Ro-
berto Francisco CHAR, backed
by four opposition parties, TO-
162. and Victory F. Goytia,
lawyer and former newspaper
editor, 6,069.
Voting was heavy yesterday
but the election went off with
surprising orderliness. Special
precautions were taken to guard
against charges Of fraud, made
after every election for the last
20 years in the little republic.
The national guard, Pana-
mas army. was put in a state
of alert after a bomb Saturday
damaged the home of a tele-
vision-radio commentator sup
porting Mr.. Arias.
The country has 350,000
registered voters.
Mr.. Arias. 48, wealthy ex-
president and former ambassa-
dor to Washington, was a slight
favorite because of a split in
the opposition vote.
Campaigning for him was
retiring President Ernesto de
Ia Guardia, jr., present leader
of the ruling national patriotic
coalition. The election also in
cluded the naming of two new
vice presidents and the SO
members of the National AS
sembly.
Both Mr.. Arias and Mr..
Chiari, 55, a rich cattleman and
sugar producer, made claims
of victory even before the first
results we're announced.
The campaign was waged
entirely on domestic issues. The
political leaders agreed not to
bring up a new deal for
Panama in the United States
controlled Canal Zone, an issue
which has brought anti-Ameri-
can demonstrations. All three
presidential candidates agreed
this was a national problem

The peacetime security of
