Any Ideas on Traffic?
By CHARLES YARBRoUGH

lem of introducing any "ra-
tional program of automobile
use in the United States is
gravely increased by the fact
that most American cities now
have inadequate or almost
non-existent public transport
facilities"
With vacation time in the
offing, the Good Car-Keep-
ing Institute is suggesting you
"child-proof" your car for the
trip ahead.
Some of this means safety
belts, safety catches on rear
doors; harnesses or special
seats for infants and younger
children.
Its best to have the chill
dren sit in the back seat, where
padding and cushions will help
protect them should an accl-
dent occur" the Institute adds.
Then comes the suggestions
on light lunchs to Stave off
hunger - apples, orang re S,
sandwiches, cookies and milk
(in a cooler). Protect the. seat
and floors with covers an d
pads.
Crayons, color books and
small toys that have no pointed
or sharp edges will help amuse
them. Don't stow any articles

President Kennedy today
asked for legislation to provide
for the training and retraining
of several hundred thousand
workers in new occupational
Skills over a four-year period.
He also requested legislation
for financial aid to workers who
shift voluntarily from one area
to another with better job OPP
portunitieS.
In identical letters to the
President of the Senate and
the Speaker of the House, Mr..
Kennedy said the need for
prompt enactment of the legis-
lation is clear.

the index materially and turn
the increases in prices Of the
past decade into stability or
even decline"
Examples Offered
Let's put this even m ore
plainly into everyday terms
and the point being made will
become clearer.
You buy a refrigerator in
which a freezer unit has been
introduced; you pay more for
it as a result, and this shows
up in the Cpl as a rise in
appliance prices. But how
much of that price rise is due
strictly to the quality improve
ment and should therefore be
deducted?
You buy a chicken which
has more breast than ever be-
fore; you pay more for it as
a result and this shows up in
the Cpl as a rise in poultry
prices. But how much of that
price rise is due to the extra
chicken" and should therefore
be omitted?
You go to the hospital and
spend far more for each day
you're there than ever before,
but If advances in m e die a |
knowledge permit you to get
out sooner than ever before,
shouldn't this quality change
be measured in the Cpl index?
AS the NBER told a congress
sional committee, If the av-
erage duration of a hospital
stay for an appendectomy has
fallen by half over a period,
then the effective cost of the
hospital service should be
halved relative to the cost of
a hospital stay of fixed dura-
ton"
The failure of price indexes
to take full account of quail
ity changes is their most i'm
portant defect" states the bu-
reau, and this failure adds
even more to the upward bias"
already built into the influ-
ential Cpl.
Since the Cpl is the only
index we have of consumer
prices, we have no alternative
except to report and interpret
as best we can.

The American Automobile
Association, last week an
nouncing a nationwide posi-
tive approach to problems Of
congestion and other urban
traffic ills, might be interested
in a new membership prospect.
Keynote of the AAA effort
is a positive approach to the
whole problem, battling
against those counSelS of
pessimiSm and despair which
see no fate for cities except
being drowned in a mounting
tide of traffic"
The membership prospect:
British economist Robert
TheObald, whose new book
"The Challenge of Abundance"
was published last week by
Clarkson N. Potter, Inc.
What Mr.. Theobald says in
essence is that traffic jams
are incurable so long as there
are cars to make them.
ANY feasible program of
construction or roads and
parking areas cannot solve the
problem"
Now living in New York, the
economist tends that
traffic congestion can be re-
duced to tolerable levels only
by some program that would
limit the number of people who
wish, or are allowed, to use
the roads.
"One method of achieving
this end would be to use the
price mechanism, forcing peo-
pie to pay the full value of
the road space they occupy.
Another possibility would be
to limit driving privileges to
certain groups: Such as
doctors.

If you accept the Govern
ment's consumer price index as
a measure of increases in the
cost Of living, you believe,
among other things, that the
average price of a new car
rose 81 per cent between 1850
and 1859.
But if you take into account
improvement in the quality of
automobiles since 1850 you
could come to the conclusion
that the average price of a
new car not only didn't rise
but actually fell by 18 per cent
between 1850 and 1889!
If you make adjustments for
changes in quality, you can at
tribute rs per cent of the rise
in auto prices in the consumer
price index since 1887 to quail
ity improvements, and you can
conclude that the Cpl exag-
gerates the climb in auto
prices by at least one-third.
Have we really experienced
the rate of price increase that
we think we have?
I'VE wonder :" the Ma
tional Bureau of Economic Re-
search says in its annual re-
port released today. And its re-
search director, Solomon Fab
ricant, fatty voices his suspi-
cions that IF, as the (bu-
reau's) Price Committee feels,
improvements in quality have
on the whole been large, and
these are inadequately re-
Elected in the price statistics,
then the trend of prices is
seriously misjudged."
Is the United States really
pricing itself out of world
markets" to the extent that
many fear because our prices
appear to have gone up SO
much and foreign competition
has scared?
I'VE wonder about this
too -" says, in effect. the
NBER-and the words of this
research organization must be
needed, for its pioneering work
on the business cycle and prices
ranks among the most impor-
tant contributions to economic
thought in this century. Adds
Mr.. Fabricant: "a basic ques-
ton is whether quality changes
in the commodities covered By
