Mayer was life-educated. He
operated by instinct which led
him to collecting junk as an
immigrant boy in st. Johns,
New Brunswick, from which he
expanded to collecting Greta

Mr.. Crowther pays this special
kind Of genius its deserved trib-

On the way to making money

Mr.. Crowther went into this

personal story of Mayer, more

background material.
What Mayer learned from
these early days was that the
survivor of this competition
was neither the weak nor the
strong, but rather the crafty.
There was vast money to be
made If one had the gall and
guile and, from his first faint
taste Of money, Mayer loved it.

only to juniors and seniors.
You'll forgive me for rushing

The remark rang in the pro-

Somely instantaneous.
Uncoiling to his full 6 feet 8

and investigating Senators as Of

to explain that he has no inten-

Of best selling authorship for the

AS a practicing economist Of
great originality, Mr.. Galbraith
sees the United States as

Gated to an economic philosophy
that was valid only in a world
Of grinding poverty. In our
worship of full production as an
answer to mass employment, he
insists, we wind up satisfying
frivolous wants, created on Madi-
son avenue, and ignore the public

happier. healthier and better
educated.
