Government Ownership in u. S.?

single private telephone or
telegraph system exists in the
larger countries Of the world
except the United States.
They are all government
owned. America has not only
the largest system Of private
communication anywhere but
one that far exceis any gov
ernmental system in service
and convenience. To this fact
anyone with experience here
and abroad can testify.
Yet in Congress q fatal
blow Is being aimed at the
whole doctrine Of peoples
capitalism" which describes
the system prevalent in
America today where the
people still have a right to
own private companies and
share in their earnings, even
as the population as a whole
shares in the benefits that
science and research bring.
The United States now is
going through a critical pc
riod in its economic history.
Will Government ownership
come to America, as it has in
Communist Russia and in
other countries, or will Amer
lea retain its system Of 'peo-
pies capitalism? This is-the
issue that seems certain to
come before the American
people in the national elec-
tons in the next few years.

A Number Of Democrats in Congress
Are Said to Favor Such q Policy

arc OOIQ 10 GQtO
Shall the Government own
everything, regulate every
thtng-including prices and
wages-and control the
whole national economy? For
many decades the answer to
such a question would have
been an emphatic negative,
but today the Democratic
Party has a substantial num-
Der Of members in Congress
who openly favor Govern
ment ownership as a public
policy.
The recent filibuster on
the bill covering ownership
Of the space-satellite COM
munications system-known
as TelStar-revealed several
Democratic Senators of the
so-called liberal group as ia
voring Government owner
ship. despite the opposition
Of the administration.
Also, some De m o cratic
members Of the Senate Anti
trust Committee now are de-
manding that the steel COM
panies disclose data on their
internal operations, whic h
means that all competitors
would see this information.
Apparently the drive is on to
increase Government control
over the making Of prices.
This is a short step away
from wage-Setting.
Proposed mergers, more
over. Of railroads and con-
solidations Of airlines are be-
fore governmental bodies to-
day for approval or disap-
proval. The prospect is that
many workers will lose their
jobs because Of such mergers,
though the companies pre-
dict that the gain in effici-
ency will result in improved
service and eventually in
more jobs.
The labor-union lie eaders
would be the last to admit it,
but they must assume some
responsibility for the plight
of those transportation COM
panieS which are not able to
get high enough rates to alb
sorb increased wage costs
and to meet the expense Of
"featherbedding"- payment
for work not being done.
This constitutes a form Of
subsidy devised by labor
unions to benefit their own
members.
Companies nowadays have
to decide whether to seek
an alternative or to try to get
along with fewer employees
and be content with a small
er volume Of specialized prod
uctS sold at a relatively high
price to those who must have
such goods no matter what
the cost. The alternative pol
icy Is usually to endeavor 10
get a larger sales volume at
lower prices. This is theoreti-
cally q sound approach, but
it depends on the use Of
automatic equipment ard on
the development Of greater
efficiency. This is something
to which labor-union policy
customarily refuses to give
cooperation.
Also, to build and modern
iZe plants requires more capi-
tai. Investors do not like to
lend or invest money in en-
terprises that are in trouble.
So it's a vicious circle. Un-
less there are satisfactory
earnings. the funds cannot
be obtained to build better
plants to promote greater
efficiency and to increase
earnings. Yet, unless labor
costs and work rules can be
held In line, employers will
soon find their earnings
steadily diminished.
Economic principles, there
fore. are coming into con-
flict more and more today
with the pressures Of groups
which uncompromisingly de-
mand the maximum and do
not think of the future Of
the whole economic system.

body dealing with the problems
of radiation fallout, issued a
report today on its meeting of
a week ago.
Mr.. Celebrezze said yesterday
in a television interview (NBC,
Meet the Press that the coun-
Gil had concluded there is no
great danger to the Nation
from fallout at this time. He
heads the group.
Details Not Told
The councils report did not
mention the areas involved or
the countermeasures taken. But
it said increased radioactivity
reports lied to actions and pro-
posed actions involving coun-
termeasures and preventive
health measures. The Federal
Radiation Council does not
recommend such actions under
present circumstances"
When the count of radioac-
tive Iodine-13l in milk reached
an average of $50 micromi-
crocuries per day during July
in Salt Lake City, the dairy
industry there undertook vol
untary control measures.
The United States Public
Health Service at the time said
these measures included shift
ing dairy herds from fresh pas
turage to stored feed, and di-
version of some fresh milk sup
plies to production Of butter
and cheese to allow time for
the Iodine-131 to decay.
Last year the council set
guidelines for radiation intake
and established the maximum
safe limit on Iodine-l31 at 100
micromicrocuries per day, or
36,5uO per year.
The council report said. The
radiation protection guides are
not a dividing line between
safety and danger in actual
radiation situations nor are
they alone intended to set a
limit at which protective action
should be taken or to indicate
what kind of action should be
taken"
Individual EvaluatiOn
Instead, the report said, the
guides should be used more as
a warning that detailed studies
and evaluation of possible ex-
poSure risks should be made.
The report added:
THE council believes that in
dividual fallout situations re-
quire individual evaluation be-
fore specific action is taken. :,
Radiation exposures any
where near the guides involves
risks so slight that counter
measures may well have a net
adverse rather than favorable
effect on the public well-being.
Increased amounts of radio
