he does not expect such an
increase-it would be difficult
to maintain is carriers and
absorb the extra cost Of nuclear

Needs Are Listed
To carry out military COM
mitments, he said. the United
States win need nine carriers
in the Pacific ana six in the
Atlantic. Normally three car
riers are kept in the Far East
at all times and two in the
Mediterranean.
The Navy is not asking for
q new carrier in the budget
now being scrutinized by Pres
ident johnson. A conventional
powered carrier was authorized
in this years budget, and the
Navy would like another car
rier in the fiscal year 1866
budget.
As attack carriers grow old
they are dropped to the status
of anti-submarine carriers and
the new attack carriers are
bought in. The oldest present
attack carrier dates to 1914.

The Economy and s. H Week

point, therefore. the 35- hour
week and the penalties for
overtime are barriers to new
employment. This means
that unemployment will grow
throughout the l960s even
as it is growing today. PreSi-
dent Kennedy in his Chicago
speech last week said:
Our civilian labor force
grew by nearly IL million
during the last Is years. But
the number of jobs grew by
only 10 million. In the last
five years we saw an annual
increase of only ITS, 900 pri-
vate Jobs, outside Of agri-
culture, compared to zoe, 900
in each of the previous 10
years. Our total gross ma
tional product output grew at
a rate Of only 3 per cent.
while unemployment re-
manned continuously above 5
per cent. ~.
Unless we step up our rate
Of growth, unless we create
a supply of Jobs which is
more equal to the demand,
our rate of unemployment
will steadily and swiftly climb
to the recession level Of Z per
cent, even without a recess
Sion."
1t isn't tax reduction,
therefore, that can save the
day, but a better margin of
profit on the present volume
of sales so as to make it
worthwhile to invest money
to bring about the very ex-
pansion which increases jobs.
1t is a less expensive way to
promote employment than
deficit spending by the Gov
eminent. Yet the President
has not uttered a single word
Of recommendation to Con-
gress to amend the labor
management laws to curb
the monopoly power of labor
unions and to put collective
bargaining on a sound econ
omic basis. This can be done
through national declarations
Of labor leaders who would
have power over local unions
and would have the author
ity to forbid strikes which 60
to extremes. To respect econ
omic facts is to bring con-
fidence to business planning,
and this would result in Job
creation and full employ

Absorption Of Unemployed Is Doubted
In Any Shortening of the Work Week

young workers coming into
the labor market each year.
The overtime problem is
the real reason. A company
that operates on one shift, for
instance, Of eight hours a day
for five days a week cannot
hire new workers to take care
Of an hour or two of work
each day after the regular
shift finishes. 1t Is natural to
use the existing personnel
and to pay the overtime rate
Of an hour-and-a-half for
every extra hour worked. As
the overtime expense grows,
the employer has to figure
out whether he can make a
profit at the increased cost
Of the labor involved. In lots
Of instances, he is stymied
and cannot expand or create
new Jobs.
The 35-hour week already
has been obtained in several
trades and crafts by the
pressure Of labor unions. This
leads. Of course, to desperate
efforts by the employers to
find new machinery and to
cut down other expenses,
which again means more
unemployment. 1t certainly
doesn't add to national
growth.
Employers in many cases
would rather pay higher
rates per hour than pay
penalties for overtime. 1t
leads to better planning and
a better system of weighing
costs in expansion programs.
The real stumbling block to
growth is the overtime rate
and the reduction Of the
work week.
While the President doesn't
favor a Federal law which
would establish a 35-hour
week uniformly in all kinds of
work, both in the factory
and white collar jobs, the
union leaders know that, as
they compel industry after
industry to adopt the 35-hour
week, the non = organized
workers will eventually pro-
test and ask the Government
to put them on an equal
footing with the organized
workers.

any greater degree than in
many Communist satellites.
1t is difficult to see just
how President Kennedy's
conference with Latin Amer
lean presidents in Costa RIGA
has made any change in this
basic condition. This can be
said without in any way de-
meaning the Presidents eff
fort to organize "a wall Of de-
termined men" around Cuba.
Mr.. Kennedy is doing what
he can. He evidently has
gotten greater cooperation
from the heads of Latin
American governments, at
least for the time being. 1t
will cost money in increased
economic aid to those coun-
tries, but we seek, anyway,
co-ordinated economic plans
which we can finance on a
sound basis.
Like several Presidents be-
fore him, and with more rea-
son, Mr.. Kennedy is seeking
to move Latin america
from the back yard into the
front yard" of our policies.
When he returned from
Costa Rica he could do no
less than adopt an optimistic
attitude.
No amount Of opposition
oratory, no calls for direct
action are likely to change
the situation much, either.
But Mr.. Kennedy will have
to live with this, and counter
It as best he can through po-
litical channels.
There are two obvious and
clear dangers. One is that
rising American evaporation
enflamed by the oncoming
presidential campaign will
push a harassed administra-
ton into overt action it other
wise would not take.
Another contingency is
that the mounting pressures
for a solution before the
presidential election next
year could conceivably push
the administration toward

The Russian Base in Cuba

some kind of a diplomatic
deal.
1t does not take much i'm
agination to equate the Rus
sian garrison in Cuba with
the American garrison in
Berlin. It can be expected
that the Russians would be
quite happy to do so. Nor is
it hard for hatassed officials
to conclude that a solution in
Cuba, so far as Russian
troops are concerned, could
only come as a part of some
give-and-take diplomatic set
Element with Nikita Khru-
shchev.
What former Secretary of
State Dean Acheson deplores
as the Kennedy administra-
tons Irritation with Russia"
apparently continues. The
idea will not die in Washing
ton that the Russians have
wanted to make a deal, either
on nuclear testing or some
other issue.
If any aspect Of the Berlin
problem is compromised in a
deal for a Russian withdrawal
in Cuba, the Kennedy ad-
ministration is likely to find
itself in deeper political trou-
bic. The impression still lin
gers in Congress, rightly or
wrongly. that some kind Of a
deal must have been made to
trade off our missile bases
abroad for the missile with
drawal in Cuba.
Neither of the contingent
cies, an invasion or a diplo-
matte trade off, actually
seems real. The reality seems
to be that we will be forced
to accept the Russian lodg-
ment in Cuba and exert our
best efforts to contain it and
strange 1t, until such time as
the Russians no longer find
this penetration worth the
cost. That may be a long time.

Common Sense in Foreign Aid

in which we are graciously
permitted to pay for the priv
ilege Of being abused and
INSTRUCTED.
Still, the fact Of the BUSH
ness Is that the Brazilian
loan and this practicable
tumult against Gen. Clay
from the old ladies Of the
left are more likely to be
constructive than otherwise
in the end. For reasonable
people-and this definitely
includes a great majority in
both parties In Congress
are simply not going to stand
much longer for this sort Of
thing. This sort Of thing will
forward the day when public
opinion will force one Of two
great decisions: Either a
cleansing Of foreign aid of
servile unwillingness to make
any demand whatever upon
its recipients; or the de-
%struction Of foreign aid it
self.
II the Clay Commission
recommendations are ultf-
mately ignored, it will be
foreign aid itself which will
fall. But because foreign aid
rational foreign aid, that
is-simply must not yet fall,
must rid itself Of this servil-
ity. And the hero Of Berlin
will once again have served
all the West even though the
old ladies Of the left-whose
vehemently uncritical Sup
port" Of even the most inde-
feasible forms of foreign aid
is the programs worst
enemy-will shrek against

Decision Against No Strings Absurdity
Believed Necessary at Long Last

The moment Of truth in
which the United States must
decide once and for all
whether it will cling to the
absurd line that there should
be mo strings" anywhere on
American foreign aid has
been long delayed.
But though common sense
in this field commonly runs
a Perils-o of Pauline race with
arrant nonsense, two current
developments give some hope
that the showdown cannot
much longer be put aside.
One Of these Is a calm,
and adult series
Of recommendations to the
President for putting COM
plete nationality into the aid
program. These have Just
been issued by a distinguished
and non-political commission
Of review headed by Gen. Lu-
cius Clay. Among the great
contributions of this hero
Of the Berlin Blockade, Gen.
Clay, is a firm warning that
we must not continue to
extend aid which is incon-
sistent with our beliefs, DEM
ocratic tradition and knowl-
edge Of economic organization
and consequences"
While this document was
still being digested, the United
States Government agreed to
give some $400 million in as
Sistance, in the form Of 40
year loans paying three
fourths Of one per cent
interest, to Brazil. This is a
country which has persist
emily refused to join the
United States in any real ef-
fort to isolate Castro Cuba.
This is a country in the
very process Of the loan ne
gotiations was denounced by
the State Department itself
as having been infiltrated by
Communists in official posi-
