AutOmatiOn Comes
To Retailing

To the uninitiated, retailing may
seem a fairly simple business.
Basicallv. it could be reasoned, all
you have to do is buy a stock
of goods, rent a location, place an
ad or two and then wait for the
customers to come flocking in.
Retailers would be happy and
trouble-free if this were the case,
but it isn't. Retailing, like most
other basic enterprises, has chang
ed enormously in late years and
become far more complex than it
used to be.
For instance, a recent issue of
Chain Store Age devotes an editor
ial by s. o. Kaylin, to automation
in retailing. Not long ago, leading
retailers were skeptical about it.
Such new innovations as electron-
les and computers, they tended to
think, had little or no relation to
the day-to-day problem of run
ming a store.

Looking Behind The Figures


Naturally, such a small sample
leaves much room for error when
the data are inflated to show an
estimate of the total picture. Re
member that only $4,000 house
holds are interviewed out of a total
of nearly 50,000,000 families in the
country. Furthermore, the person
al interview method has certain
natural pitfalls. More often than
not the housewife answers the
questions. She may not have an
exact knowledge of the circum-
stance of each member of the
household. Or, the person ques-
toned may be in bad mood" and
thus unwittingly give inaccurate
or incomplete answers. Local con-
ditions andIor mass psychology
could also contribute toward a dis
tortion of answers given.
Aside from these human" fac
tors, unemployment figures should
be adjusted by readers to take in
to account other distortions. For
example, workers who are idled by
strikes are included as unemploy-
ed. These, of course, do not truly
reflect the state of the economy's
health. In addition, workers who
are temporarily laid off because of
seasonal curtailments in activity
are counted as unemployed. I al
so question whether sick workers,
and housewives and students
seeking extra spending money"
should be included.
Where Is The Real Problem
And Cure!
At the present time, the Govern
ment estimates that over 100000
people are unemployed. Histori-
cally speaking, this is still not a

Disabled Veterans
Given Some Advice

Approximately 100 disabled vet
Grams and dependents of some 1900
deceased veterans in Delaware who
receive monthly pension payments,
are being reminded by the Vete-
rams Administration to report their
annual income promptly and avoid
the risk of having their payments
stopped.
Leon Fields, manager of the VA
regional office at Wilmington, said
that VA is now mailing to all pen
sion recipients a tabulating card
upon which the income report may
be made. Pensions cease under the
old pension law if the income of a
single individual exceeds S1400 or
$2700 if the recipient has depend
ents.
Under the new law, Mr.. Fields
pointed out, pensions will cease the
income of a single individual ex-
ceeds $500, or $4,000 if the recip-
lent has dependents, the amount of
pension may be reduced if the re-
cipient's annual income rises from
one of the lower brackets - $500
and $1,000 for single veteran or
widow without dependents, and
$1,000 and $4,000 for a veteran or
widow with dependents.
Dependent parents who receive
dependency and indemnity COM
pensation also receive income
questionnaires and their payments
are similarly regulated by the a.
mount of their income, Mr.. Fields
added. Regulations require payment
to be stopped if the income report
is not returned to the VA within
80 days.
No income QUESTIONABLE is sent
to veterans or widows who are re-
ceiving service-connected benefits.

very burdensOme figure. Consid-
ering the growth in population,
this represents only a little over
so of the labor force. Admittedly,
there are pockets of unemploy-
ment" in various sections which
should receive help. Taking the
country as a whole, however, the
picture is more encouraging, es-
pecially when it is related to per-
iods of normal business rather
than war and super-boom times.
Readers of this column, there
fore, should pay more attention to
certain fundamental conditions
which are threatening to make the
unemployment problem worse than
it now is. fear that too many
workers, whether individually or
through unions, are pricing them
selves out of the market. This is
evident in the trend toward in
creased automation which, though
ultimately beneficial to labor,
could in the meantime make for
greater unemployment. If wage
costs increase much more, fear
that America will lose the race for
world markets, and that foreign
imports will cut deeper into do
mestic markets. Both of these
conditions could contribute to job
lessness.
Areas where unemployment is
high should seek to create and at
tract new opportunities. This can
best be accomplished by advertis-
ing local advantages, and, above
all, by proving labor's willingness
to work harder. Unless something
is done, students now in colleges
and high schools may be hard put
to find a Job later on.

BABSON DISCUSSES UNEMPLOYMENT STATISTICS

BABSON PARK, Mass, Decem-
ber 23-During the recent election
campaign, the unemployment prob
lem was discussed at length by
both political parties. Naturally,
the interpretations given to the
jobless situation were presented
in a light which would best suit
the particular audience listening
to each speech. Within the past
few weeks, some projections of
unemployment trends seem to bear
out fears expressed during the
election campaign. Government
officials predict that a sharp in
crease in jobless workers may lie
ahead.
Unemployment Figures Are
Statistical "Guesses"
Once a month, the Bureau of La
Dor Statistics releases it's estimate
of employment and unemployment.
This is based on a mid-month sur
vey by the Census Bureau in which
approximately $4,000 households
are interviewed in $50 selected
regions throughout the country.
The groups of households inter-
viewed are rotated so that a given
household will be questioned for
four successive months during a
given year.
The information obtained for the
latest month is then compared
with the preceding months esti-
mate of unemployment to derive
a measure of the change which
has taken place. The next step is
to initiate the current data by the
estimates of various population
groups-viz., by age, sex, and col
or. After the results of each step
are weighed, the two steps are then
combined.

COmpulsiOn Not Needed

Next year will witness a full
scale effort to eliminate the pre-
sent voluntary federal-state pro-
gram of medical aid for the aged,
as passed by the last Congress,
and to supplant it with compul-
sorry system tied to Social Security.
1t is to be hoped that President
elect Kennedy and other national
leaders will think long and hard
before embarking upon this. For
as many authorities, the Ameri-
can Medical Association among
them, point out and substantiate
with impressive evidence, the COM
pulsory system would be bad for
the aged, bad for the nation as a
whole and, in the long run, bad
for the new Administration itself
The present program goes to the
root of, the problem by providing
help for those who actually need
help Need is the criteria, not just
an arbitrary age bracket. 1t was
approved by Congress after care
full and protracted study, and after
all points of view had been heard
and considered. 1t does the re-
quired job, it does it practically
and economically-and it places
heavy responsibilities at the local
government level where they be-
long.
The existing law does not waste
tax dollars on aged people who
are perfectly willing and able to
take care of their own medical care
costs, and it is not based on
compulsory, socialized approach to
the problem. 1t deserves a full
chance to work-and, there is
every indication that it is work
ing and will continue to do so.

to be found.
A publication of an oil and gas
association has assessed the out
look for the allowance when the
new Congress meets and the new
Administration takes over. Happ-
lily, it is an encouraging one. The
new Senate has 55 members-a

Johnson has always strongly fav-
ored the existing law.
So the weight of authority
seems TO be definitely behind con-
tinuing the allowance as it stands
now. If there is one thing this
country cannot afford, in a world
in which oil is a fundamental
source of power. strength, and &C.
onomic and military security, it is
any move which would discourage
risk takers and invite future short

sists of the so-called "jitterbug"
diet-a hot dog, bag of potato
chips and a bottle of pop. They
are not getting the proper food to
build sound tissues, enough calci-
UNI for strong bones and good
teeth, enough vitamins and miner
ais for steady nerves, normal blood
and efficient vision, she stated.
A daily balanced diet is not
tricky as demonstrated by Mrs.
Stull. 1t consists of about half a
pound of meat, fish or poultry, a
quart of milk, one egg, an eight
ounce glass of juice, two servings
of leafy green or yellow vegetables,
plus at least a pound of other
fruit and vegetables.
