And this / readily admit / should

woman from here in town who
wakes up every morning knowing
she will have to cook three meals

STRANGERS PAY YOUR BILLS

Suppose you're moving to another COM
munity and have to transport your house
hold goods. You can do it in various ways
by hiring moving company, by renting a
trailer and doing the job yourself, and so
on.
But one thing is true-whatever the way
chosen, you expect to pay whatever bills
your move entails. You don't expect legions
of people you don't know and never will
meet te chip in and absorb part of the ex-
pense.
This is obvious enough to seem almost
simple-minded. However, consider what
happens-probably unbeknownst to you
when you take package down to the post
Office and send it on its way via parcel post.
You pay charge, based on weight and
distance. But that charge does not meet all
the costs of the service the post Office is about
TO perform on your behalf. In other words,
parcel post is, and long has been, operated
at an out of pocket loss.
So what is the result? In effect, all the
taxpayers, who must contribute to funding
all government deficits, are paying some of
the cost for shipping your package.
Does that make any sense-and is it sound
government policy?

INVESTORS WILL REVIEW
THEIR HOLDINGS

Certainly readers should review
their stocks and bonds at this
time. I feel that as yet readers
have not taken the possibility of
World War III seriously. Recent
events, however, should cause care
full investors to make important
switches in their holdings. Inves-
tors will seek the stock OF COM
panies which have their assets well
distributed over the United States,
in place of those concentrated in
large cities. This is matter
which should be taken up immed-
lately with your investment coun-
selor.
We will hear more about civil
defense, bomb shelters, and pro-
lection against fall out. Certain
real estate in large cities should
decline in value. But land in small
cities and towns in interior states
should be in greater demand.

The puff is about one-quarter of
an inch thick, and when you use
it for a day or two, you just peel
off layer and throw it away.

Babson Discusses The Possibility Of World War III

BABSON PARK, Mass, May 20
down of one of our spies, there is
revived interest in the possibility
of World War II. l therefore am
repeating in this column the first
four paragraphs of my Outlook for
1860.
MY REFERENCE TO RUSSIAN
FOUR MONTHS AGO
l. Naturally. as l am just back
from Moscow and Berlin, my first
thoughts are what will happen to
Berlin in 1860. My answer is def
nitely, NOTHING WILL HAP
PEN" Mr.. K will make no more
ultimatums; President EisenhOw-
er will continue his peace talks.
Therefore the Berlin situation will
be just the same in 1860 and 1861
as it is today.
q There will be no World War
started between Russia and the
United States in 1860. This does
not mean that such a war will not
come within 10 years; but just now
neither country is ready for it. l
am convinced of this after my re-
cent visit to Moscow.
8. Airplane warfare with the
dropping of bombs is thing of the
past We are turning to rocketry
with pinpoint precision. Our ex-
pensive air bases may gradually
be vacated.
4. Moscow is Mr.. KS pride and
joy" 1t is a beautiful city with
broad streets and thousands of
new apartment houses. Mr.. X does
not want it destroyed. Further
more, he wants a reduction in ar
maments so that he will have mon

in Russia. / forecast he will have

week will not help the Republicans,
or the election of Nixon. How they
will affect the Democrats, the next
thirty days will probably deter
mine. My present hunch is that
the situation will help Symington,
Johnson, or one of the others fa-
miliar with the defense situation.
Mr.. Kennedy has not specialized in
foreign affairs or defense.
Of course, the event may cause a
decline in European travel this
summer and it cannot be helpful
to business. It will make people
think more about the possibility of
World War III and the serious fall
out which may accompany it. On
the other hand, companies actively
engaged in defense work should be
assured continued employment. De-
fense expenditures. however, will
be directed to missiles and rockets,

in my columns rather than to air.

who was eleven years old when he delivered his
first package for Seattle department store in
1899. By the time he was l9, he had bought
couple of bicycles and organized messenger serv-

lunch counter in an alleyway behind saloon.
Washingtonans chuckled at Caseys couriers ped

Six years later, Casey adopted the name, ''Mer-

motorcycles, which gave way to fonr-car fleet of

Parcel Service was adopted along with its familiar
brown color-the most dignifed Casey could find,
and the color least likely to show dirt.
