Scrappage of obsolete busi-
ness equipment is accelerating
but, even so. a new American
MachiniSt survey reveals that
"a per cent of all machine
tools today are over-age (more
than 10 years old against so
per cent five years ago. The
need for undermining machines
and plants is urgent, and as
suming Congress votes new tax
incentives to spur business in
vestment, plant expansion and
modernization will be further
stimulated.
The scrappage pattern In au-
tomobiles is Of major signifi-
canoe to the American econ
omy. To be specific:
1t was in 1953-10 years ago
that the years of big auto
sales began. With the sole ex-
ception Of 1858, sales Of new
cars since 1858 have been near
or substantially above 8 mi
lion.
At the 9-10 year age classi-
fication, scrappage of autos be-
cause heavy which means we
are into the peak scrappage
years. Heavy junking, Of
course, increases the demand
for new and used cars.
Actually, the evidence Is that
at six years cars are junked in
rising volume. The average age
Of cars on, the roads today is
six years against five and one
half years in 1857. It's esti-
mated that rs per cent Of 1855
cars already have been junked,
Replacement demand is only
one factor in the sales outlook
for durable goods, obviously. 1t
is a highly important factor,
though, which has been oper-
ating against the economy
rather than for it in recent
years, for by the late 1950s we
had loaded ourselves with new
durable goods. Beginning in
1855. the rate Of rise in our
spending for durable goods fell
sharply and helped to slow the
economy's growth.

and as elusive as cake Of soap in bath
tub. He was superb running back and
soon was also the best paSs-catcher in the
league. He could throw passes and punt
with the best. On defense he was a ball
hawk and deadly tackler.",
Training rules and curfewS never
bothered Blood, who at times came onto
the field a little fuzzy in the head. After
he'd been selected on the All-League team,
Curly Lambeau, his coach at Green Bay,
said:
IF you're that good when you don't
keep training rules, Just think how much
better you'd be If you observed them.
Promise me you won't break training until
after the season ends"
1T IS RECOUNTED that Johnny prom
ised, and kept his word. Actually it made
no difference" Daley writes. "He gained
All-League honors again as a milk drinker.
Every afternoon he took two quarts
Of milk with him to the Green Bay
library, where he studied ponderous tones
which formed the basis for the book he
later wrote on the Malthusian theory Of
economies"
His eight seasons with the Packers
were his best. AS player coach Of the
Steelers he didn't last too long. Coaching
wasn't his forte. But he was still playing
football at Kenosha when he was 49, He
played December Z, 1941-Pearl Harbor Day.
The next day he enlisted in the Air
Corps When he was discharged in 1945
he rejoined the Packers, at age AZ, although
he didn't play long. IN

used his alias of Johnny Blood. Then the
electorate would have known he would
have been the most ferocious law enforcer
since Bat Masterson, Wyatt carp and
Marshal Dillon.
Perhaps flaw in the Mentally cam
paign was that he let Blood do the talking
for him. The candidate was asked what
the main plank Of his platform would be.
McNally could have given learned dis
course Of utter conviction. But Mentally
lost the election because he permitted
