BABSON DISCUSSES DIVERSIFICATION

Sea Made Men,. They would an
chor their vessels at certain points
and row ashore and trade for all
kinds of natural resources. After
establishing reputation with t h e
natives for honesty my Gloucester
ancestors had sort of monopoly
of the business and it was very
profitable. 1t makes me feel bad to
see that China has temporarily
gone Communist and, with the ex-
ception of Hong Kong, we have no
connection with her 600 million
Industrious people
When steamships were used, the
China trade moved to our larger
American cities such as New York,
Philadelphia, and New Orleans.
However, the Babson family con-
tinued in the merchandising busi-
ness. My father, Nathaniel Bah
son, was the leading storekeeper
in Gloucester, and at his sugges-
tion the family acquired control of
over two hundred variety stores
which have now become the pro-
fitable McCrory chain.
The moral of this story is h e
Importance of DIVERSIFTCATION
The families who put all h cir
money into the fishing business
have largely gone broke; the fam
lilies who put their money in the
granite business were forced into
bankruptcy; the families who re
fused to change from the sailing
ships for steamships have about
held their own. So | urge today,

ALCOHOLICS ANONYMOUS

Alcoholics Anonymous, which began
some twenty-seven years ago and which
therefore recently observed its 9th ami
versary, is an organization known and adj
mired by all Americans.
The good work that AA is doing is gen.
orally appreciated but it accomplishments
can never actually be known by the general
public. So much of this good work is done
privately and quietly that many achieve
ments will never be fully known.
Perhaps the best thing citizens can learn
from the work of the AA is that it has
proven that alcoholism can be licked, and
by the person who might be suffering from
the disease.
One of the first great lessons the found
ers gave to the world is that one can help
his problem by seeking to help others and
by recognizing the same problem in others.
No one can say that overcoming the prob
lem is easy or that everyone will overcome
it.
Another admirable feature of AA is it's
anonymous nature. There are no national
offices and great publicity splurges. There
is very little actually known about the per-
sonal and specific work of the various AA
clubs throughout the country.
Yet many persons put considerable eff
fort into the task of making this organi-
cation successful. The time and money
some individuals put into this cause is of
ten surprising and, because of lack of pub
licity and promotion, etc.. such sacrifices go
relatively unnoticed.
Yet few organizations in the country de-
serve the support and respect of the people
as much as the AA. 1t is an organization
dedicated to selfess duty-to the cause of
restoring human beings to full citizenship
and respect, after they have suffered an
agonizing experience.
Long may the AA live and long may its
wonderful work, in behalf of the dignity of
man, be known and appreciated.

A 3.5 MILLION VERDICT

Most intelligent Americans realize the
dangers from loose tongues, Wagged by
those carried away with emotion, and who
see everything as black and whichever
gray, never the other side.
The greatest damage to be caused today,
in loose talk about others, is labelling them
as Communists, pro-Communists or pinks.
These words Immediately stir an emotional
reaction in many Americans, and patri-
otic one, understandable because the Com
munists are out to destroy our way of life.
There is, also, no real danger that the
United States will go Communist. Though
some are easily exercised on the subject, the
vast and overwhelming majority of Amer
leans would never turn Communist Nor
are they so dumb that they would be led
into the trap unknowingly. We have more
faith than that in the American people.
jury recently awarded a record-break-
ing 35 million dollars to a commentator who
had been branded Communist sympathizer.
The verdict included both compensatory and
punitive damages The case has been ap-
pealed and the decision could, of course be
reversed. But the point is that a jury
thought a mans career had been ruined by
these charges.
The oldest political strategy, or person
al strategy, in the world, is to brand your
opponent with the blackest connection. To-
day that is Communism. We should be
vigilent and seek out every Communist
agent, organizer or cell member, through
Federal Bureau of Investigation activity
and other legal procedure. All citizens should
help in this process.
But in the spirit of American tradition
and Justice, we should not throw the words
''pro- Communist or Communist sympa-
thizer" around lightly in seeking to "save'
our fellow citizens. Once man or wo-
mans reputation has been shattered it is
very difficult to make up the damage, and
if the injured party was innocent, then the
deed which has been done is one for which
the responsibility will likely become a
crushing mental burden.

THE GRANITE INDUSTRY
The most profitable industry o f
Cape Ann, in those days, was the
granite industry. There were S i x
large quarries lin operation n d
Cape Ann owners were shipping
granite for building purposes, and
for paving the streets of large
cities. Then, two unforeseen events
happened which caused the stocks
of these granite companies to de-
cline suddenly from over $500 a
share to $5 a share. The largest
shipper of granite was the Rock
port Granite Company which fin
ally went into bankruptcy.
These two unforeseen events
were ID the development of tn e
automobile, which demanded h a t
the paving stones be covered with
asphalt, and (2) the invention OF
cement, which became a great
building factor. Those who had in
vested in the granite business suf-
fered severe losses. The people VINO
suffered included the best families
of Gloucester and Rockport a n q

CHRONICLE MILFORD DELAWARE FRIDAY JULY 2o
DEFYING THE COURT

The recent Supreme Court ruling on
prayer in public schools has brought about
sharp reaction, especially from some relig-
ious denominations. So outraged have some
citizens and priests become that open de-
fance of the court ruling is shouted in the
face of the bench.
The present Supreme Court finds few
defenders, it is certainly true. 1t has in
recent years fallen to low in public es-
TEEN. This is because of so many decisions
which seem to completely reverse earlier
ones, and even the layman sees through the
inconsistencies in such turn of events.
A few years back, when the Supreme
Court reversed itself on the separate-but-
equal school facilities doctrine, for the races,
manyein the South voiced alarm at what
they considered to be the political tone of
the court and the crumblin of states rights.
Some voiced defiant statements.
Now the very people who criticized these
statements, in many instances, are outraged
by the latest court decision. And some are
voicing brazen determination to defy the
court.
The country was so whipped up over
Southern defiance of the integration decis
ion that President Dwight Eisenhower called
out the u. S. Army to force integration in a
school in Little Rock, Arkansas. One might
ask if the military will be used against
those who pray in the schools? Of course,
it will not, and should not be used.
But it is little amusing to see so many
of the souls who condemned defiance of the
high court on the integration tact now defy
ing the court on the question of religion in
the schools. 1t all depends, once again, on
whose toes are being stepped on.

AS l sit on my piazza and watch
the beautiful but vacant harbor,
which, when / was boy was full
of fishing vessels, reminisce con-
corning the industrial changes %
the past fifty years.
THE FISHING BUSINESS
This continues to be a prominent
industry; but lit has gone through
great changes. Once most of It h e
fish was dried out of doors in the
sun and either cut up and sold in
little wooden boxes, or else export
ed in bulk. Fish was also sold
throughout the country {chiefly by
the Frank e. Davis Company pick
led in tubs, and by other concerns
cooked in cans. Everything from
fishballs to confectionery was tried
out by the fish companies. Finally,
Clarence Birdseye invented tn e
quick freeze industry which result
ed in the employment of a large
number of people in the filIeting
and packing of fish for storage in
large freezers.
My guess is that someday much
of this work will be eliminated and
the entire fish will be ground. The
Interior Department tells me that
whereas the "fillet" now sold con-
tains only 60c of the food value
of a fish, the rest going to t h e
chickens, this ground fish would
contain 1909 of the goodness. In
this connection, it is interesting to
note that doctors are prescribing
fish diets for those with b art
trouble. l believe in the future of
the fish industry, but feel that

MORE TRADE

The repercussions to the United States,
following the passage by the House of the
Administrations trade bill, should be bene-
fetal. Assuming that the law takes effect
with no bitches, the President will have
more power to lower tariffs than any other
Chief Executive in the history of the coun-
try.
The theory of trade, however, is that
each country produces some things partic-
ularly we'll. The Belgians might produce
glass and carpets well, and cheaply, and we
might mass-produce automobiles well. The
goal is to get the Belgians to lower their
tariff on our automobiles, so we can sell
most of the automobiles, while lowering our
tariffs on glass and carpets from Belgium
so we can buy these things more cheaply
Trade-especially international trade
does not work out this simply. One country
may risk losing more jobs than new jobs
created temporarily. Or trade agreement
might work more to one country's advan-
tage than to the others That is where the
government must protect home industry
economy.
Our goal is-and the President has indi-
Gated his intention to pursue ito lower
tariffs to obtain expanded trade and lower
prices, while providing protection for in
dustries which are threatened with extinc-
ton, either because of our higher wages or
other factors. How just and delicate the
Administration applies the law in the next
year or two will determine whether the new
trade law remains the popular will, or
whether Congress changes its direction in
dhis field

DISSENTERS

From time to time we hear sounds from
politicians and writer's to the effect that
their patience with dissenters is wearing
thin. In Congress especially, in recent years
the trend has been-especially in Demo
cratic administrations but also, to a lesser
extent in the Eisenhower Administration
toward conformity.
The party is sold as the vital thing.
In both the House and the Senate, the party
leaders stress loyalty to the party, to the
party line. The Senator or Congressman
who deviates from the cline" is punished
in number of ways-by not getting on
good committees, by not getting patronage
from the White House, etc., etc.
We need Congressman and Senators who
will stand up on the floor of their legisla-
tive house and tell the country what they
think-avhat they really think, with the
gloves off, We need men who will shun the
patronage and the favors of the party, the
favors Of the all-powerful administration
in power, if necessary, and pay the price, to
speak the independent, truth-straight.
Let us have the mayericws. Let us re-
turn to the day when a bill--in either the
Senate or the House-is decided on its mer-
jts, on the debate which precedes the vote.
The country will benefit because of ev
cry legislator and citizen who speaks his
mind independently. The country needs the
dissenters. A nation of conformists can be
led astray or misinformed. From our ear

ENGLAND NEXT

The next step in the developing Euro
pean picture may we'll be the detachment of
England from the hitherto solid Anglo
American axis which has lasted ever since
the end of World War III.
This is not yet in evidence or even limited
by official actions but the trend of things in
the United States and Europe indicates that
this may we'll be the outcome of events. For
one thing, the European Common Market
is growing stronger and stronger and the
u. S. economic position weaker and weaker.
For another, President Charles De Gaulle
of France, seems intent on making the Brit
ish decide between a first-love for Europe
and the ECM or a first-love for the United
States. The British, now very eager to join
the Comman Market, are being lured strong
ly to turn their attentions and future to-
ward the ECM.
The British may be forced to pay the
price They would become the seventh MEM
ber of the ECM and may well enjoy an
economic surge as a result This may have
its political overtones, too, and Euro
pean force may well evolve which will pre-
sent the United States Russia and the world
with another third, major industrial and
economic giant
Washington is in for a period of trying
times. In these circumstances, certainly our
policies should be calculated to strengthen
4 our ties with our major European allies.
