BABSON DISCUSSES SELLING

Babson Park, Mass, October rs.
l was amazed, and even shocked,
the other day when | saw the re-
suits of a survey of college stu
dents and their job preferences. OF
those polled who had made a def
mite decision. only $50 intended to
take up selling as a vocation.
Worse yet, many of the students
made it clear that they looked
down upon salesmanship as an in
ferior occupation, and some even
felt that it is hardly decent.
Statesmen are tOday's Vip's -.
Few seemed to realize there are
vast areas of sales activity bsides
counter clerking and door-to-door
canvassing. Most of these young
sters would be astonished if they
knew that those statesmen W h O
call at their homes to sell / f e
insurance, books, household goods,
ETC., comprise only about 29o of the
total sales force of this country.
The great mass of statesmen the
other $3.50 are selling to the ma
tion's millions of retailers and
corporations. These people are
kingpins in our free economy and,
along with those who sell adver-
tising, they create and satisfy
enough new wants to keep ou r
economy in high gear. The sales
man is mighty powerful person
1t should be made clear to our
young high school and college
students that sales work has a
special appeal to those with per-
sistence and ambition, because

proportion to ability and h a r d
work. An experienced salesman

Safety Council Notes

Differences in school bus laws
demonstrate the desirability of
uniform motor vehicle laws, a
safety official said yesterday.
Austin c. Chidester. Jr., field
representative of the ID e a W ar e
Safety Council, did some research
.on the laws in Delaware and 3
neighboring states on point of
law he said should be clear to
every motorist driving in these
states. The point is: what to do
when meeting or overtaking a
school bus.
In Delaware school buses are
required to be equipped. with an
"arm" which is extended as a sig
nal when the bus stops to take
on or discharge passengers. When
a motorist meets or Overtakes a
school bus which is stopped with
it's "arm" extended, the motorist
whether going in the same direc-
tion or the opposite direction)
must stop until the bus retracts it's
"arm."
The requirement is different on
a dual highway. however. A motor
ist must stop for a stopped school
bus in the same lane of dual
highway, but not if the bus is in
the other lane.
Delaware is the only ! state
among the three studied which re-
Pennsylvania require blinking red
| lights at the rear as warning
signal.
In New Jersey if a school bus
is stopped in the opposite lane of
dual highway the motorist must
reduce speed to not more than 10
miles. an hour. In Delaware and
Maryland no reduction in, speed is
required.
In Pennsylvania the law does not
require a motorist to stop for a
stopped school bus on any type of
highway. The requirement is that
speed be reduced to Is miles an
hour and that normal speed not be
resumed until the vehicle has pass
ed the school bus and any children
who may have alighted from the
bus or are about to get on the
bus.
Many residents of Delaware
drive through Maryland and Pa
and are expected to obey the local
laws, Chidester pointed out. If the
motor vehicle laws of the various
states were uniform, the motorists
would find it less complicated to
learn the laws and the result
would be greater compliance with
the laws and fewer accidents, he
said
He expressed the hope that a
uniform motor vehicle code, pre-
pared after a great deal of work
by police, legislators, highway and
safety officials, will be considered
by the next General Assembly.

me for being shocked that only $50
of the college youngsters in that
glamorous field in their job pre-
ferences.
Sales incomes exceptionally goo d
Whether a young man begins as
manufacturer representative,
w h o | e "a e marketer, special
ty salesman, sales engineer, or re-
tail merchandiser, his opportunit-
les will be exactly what he makes
them. If he is a good worker, he
will probably want ito work on
commission. Then it will be entir-
ely up to him whether he makes
S25 a week or $3.50. Whatever the
starting guarantees offered to col
lege seniors, the average after five
years is about $4,000. The average
in sales management ranges e.
tween $4,000 and $4,000 in midi
die sized companies, with some
earnings reaching we'll above that
level
Statesmen as a group need n o
labor unions, since their hours and
their earnings are dependent upon
their own ambition. Young people
should be aware, however, of the
fact that statesmen are often h e
ones who work up to the top ex-
ecutive posts. Looking ahead over
the next decade, | believe that an
enterprising young man entering
the sales field at this time will
have an excellent chance to get
ahead rapidly, and at the a m e
time to make an all-important con-
tributiOn to our economy.

Reports On Industries

Manufacturers in the Philadelph-

crease plant and equipment expen-
ditures IL per cent in 1863, ac-
cording to the Federal Reserve
Bank of Philadelphia annual sur
vey of capital spending. Decreas-
es' are projected by almost all in
dustries included in the survey.
Bertram w. Zumeta, Economist
at the Federal Reserve Bank, re-
ports that manufacturers capital
expenditures in 1862 will reach
1886 million, while current plans
for 1868 indicate spending of only
$278 million in the Philadelphia
area. The final estimate for 1862 is
considerably larger than the pro-
original estimates were rechecked
in March. According to Mr.. Zume-
tais analysis of capital spending
patterns, this leve1ing off is usual
at the top of a business recovery.
Wehn recovery is still vigorous,
current estimates of capital spend-
ing typically exceed rather h a a
fall short of previous figures, and
spending planned for the year
ahead exceeds that currently c.
curing. The pattern now develop
ing current spending leveling off,
and planned spending low usually
occurs at the peak of the business
cycle, when business activity be-
gins to drop off.

Delaware Food Market
Report
By ANNE HOLBERTON
Agricultural Extension Service
University of Delaware

Smart shoppers look ahead
They take advantage of the sea-
sons food specials at local mar
kets-bumper crops of WORT e
foods. Very often this means buy
ing in quantity because items are
favorably priced. The U. S. Depart
ment of Agriculture suggests that
you buy broiler-fryers in quantity
or at least an extra bird or two.
These tender young chickens are
in excellent supply now, SO freeze
few for the weeks ahead.
Stewing chickens and turkeys
are also good choices for fall
meals. Retail prices for these 2
meats have been at their low level
of a year ago, while prices for
many red meat cuts have been
running above. More stewing
chickens come to market during
/ October than any other month so
be sure to check for specials to
further save on your food budget.
The recess in withholding meat
animals from market resulted in
immediate increases in number of
animals offered for slaughter. This
action, plus the fact that ship
ments are normally stepped up at
this time of year., bring prospects
of continued lower prices on pork
and beef. Shoppers again this week
will find excellent meat buys due
to weekend specials. Be sure to
check such cuts as steaks, blade
chuck, standing rib roast and some
ground beef. Pork cuts to check
are hams, bacon, spare ribs, and
loin roast
Fresh vegetables of marvellous
quality are available thanks to the
recent weather of rain and cool
non-freezing weather. The weathe eT
has helped to extend the season

Control Cattle Lice

Both dairy and beef animals are
often heavily infested with lice in
the fall, says Kent county ag e n t
George Vapaa. Now is the best time
to get rid of lice, while the wealth
er is warm. He recommends treat
ing all cattle before they go into
winter quarters.
A spray or dust application o
rotenone or pyrethrum can be used
on both dairy cows being milked
and beef animals. If needed, make
a second application about IA days
after the first treatment.
For lice control on beef and
dairy COWS not being milked,
sprays containing either Coral,
lindane, malalthion, methoxychlor
or Ronnel can be used. Vapaa
cautions not to use any of these
sprays on COWS being milked.
Apply sprays with a power
sprayer at $50 and 400 pounds
pressure Use about one gallon of
spray material per mature animal.
If using dust, apply literally over
| the back, shoulders, and around
! the base of the TAIL Use a, still
| brush and rub the dust we'll into
the hair. Ample dust should be ap-
piled above the rear of the un-
der and on the brisket. One pound

Louise Connor Does
Not Fuvor Sales Tax

Louise Conner, Republican can
didate for state treasurer, declared
today that, Il do not favor a gen.
eral sales tax
Mrs. Conner stated her position
in "a clarifying statement" to cor
rect the misunderstanding an d
misinterpretation resulting FIR o m
published reports of my meeting
with the editorial staff of the News
Journal Company last week"
In her statement, Mrs. Conner
said:
ST do not favor a general sales
tax.
81 do recognize, however, that
the day may be approaching when
Delaware will require a new
broad based source of additional
revenue
at is quite evident that the con-
tinued refusal of the Democratic
leadership to adopt modern, ef-
ficient, money-saving government
reforms is placing an additional
and unnecessary drain on our
1resent revenue sources. 1t is also
quite evident that we cannot count
on synthetic surpluses obtained
through doubled-up tax payments,
nor on inheritance and divestiture
tax windfalls which will some day
stop falling, to see us through the
period of continued growth which
lies ahead for Delaware
when the necessary govern
ment reforms are achieved, a n d
when we begin operating our ad-
ministrative and legis la tt v e
branches of government in n
orderly, efficient and economical
manner, we will be in a better
position to determine exactly what
| our long-range revenue needs are.
"Then, and only then, would
be willing to support some form
of broad-based tax. When asked al
my conference Monday what forms
believe such a broad-based tax
might take, / mentioned two pos
sibilities: either a gross income
! tax overlaid on our present in
come tax structure, such as Gov
Carvel levied during his first adj
ministration; or a selective sales
tax which would exempt the neces-
sities of life. Gov. Carvel levied
such a selective sales tax three
times in the past 18 months, on
gasoline, cigarettes and wine.
However, these broad-based tax
sources were mentioned by me
only as possibilities, not as recon-
mendations.
Again, l must emphasize that
do not favor q general sales tax,
Mrs. Conner concluded.

THE RANGER FAILURE

The failure of the Ranger spacecraft aim
ed at the moon can only be written off as a
disappointment, but not a major one. The
launching went off smoothly. 1t was fail
ure of solar batteries, depriving the Rang
er's instruments of power needed for. their
operation, that made the spacecraft unable
to carry out its objectives.
1t is a measure of the progress space
technologists are making that the Ranger
launch can be regarded as unsuccessful even
though the capsule narrowly missed the
moon; now the objects are loaded with num-
erous sensitive instruments, and the sue
cess of the mission depends on how well they
function.
There is good reason to believe that the
power flaw can soon be corrected. There is
a good chance that the next Ranger will
complete its mission and send back first-hand
data on the nature of the moon.

AND GOOD RADIANCE

There will be little regret, among Ameri-
, cans who have thought the matter through
dispassionately, about the demise of the non
Communist disclaimer affidavit required in
federal student loan applications. The affi-
davit should never have been demanded of
college students in the first place, as Con-
gress recognized by repeating the controver-
sial requirement.
The disclaimer requirement insulted stu
dents by singing them out for this scrutiny
Other groups and individuals receive aid of
various kinds from the federal government
without ever having been asked for such an
affidavit The requirement also failed of it's
purpose.
President Kennedy referred to that as
pect of the matter when, in signing the re-
peal bill, he said: ''It is highly unlikely that
the affidavit requirement kept any Commun-
lst out of the program. 1t did, however, keep
out those who considered the disclaimer affi-
davit bride upon freedom of thought"
The list OF persons and institutions OPP
posed to the disclaimer affidavit is a dis
tinguished one. 1t includes not only Presi-
dent Kennedy but also former President Els
enhower. More than 80 universities and col.
leges turned their backs on the benefits OF
the National Defense Education Act rather
than support the affidavit.
The nation is well shut of this provision
of the law. The affirmative oath of allegi-
ance to the United States remains That is
the most that should be asked of any citizen
as condition of participation in federal
loan program.

NO CLEAR SOLUTIONS

Just trying to keep abreast of world de-
velopments is becoming a maddening rat
race The population explosion in shrink
ing world compounds the difficulty.
To no problems Berlin, Cuba, Latin
America, Southeast Asia or even those here
at home-are clear-cut solutions evident.
For every compusion to act, equally compell-
ing reasons arise to refrain from action.
And behind all the military and diplomatic
quandries are equally agonizing economic
problems.
For example, employment is at an all
time high, yet seems stuck with hard
core of almost four million jobless. The OBJ
yious remedy would seem to be to create
new jobs. We have created new jobs-three
million of them since January 1, iceland
still the jobless army remains about the same
siZe
At the same time, industry is screaming
for great numbers of technicians. Our
schools are not producing them fast enough.
Experts declare they never will be able to,
without federal aid. Yet federal aid to edu-
cation is one of the measures the expiring
Congress let die.
AS the British author John Strachey has
declared the free world has no room for
either compacency or the counsils of despair.
Nor dare we shun economic issues merely
because a world Of nuclear weapons seems
too dangerous place in which to concen-
trate on those issues. For in this perilous
age it is precisely in the economic field that
democracy faces it's great challenge.
If such picture worries you; If some
times, in pummeling your brain for answers
to the worlds ills, you suddenly come up
with frightening hunch that you are Slip
ping cogs mentally, don't be alarmed Our
best minds are experiencing the same sort
of bafflement.
