“There but for the grace of God
go I.” This comes to mind when
ever I see a polio victim. Why
am I spared? Why am I (or you)
allowed to walk around on two
good legs, when better than I
have felt this disease’s crippling
blow? I certainly don’t deserve
any more than the next man—
maybe a great deal less. We see
them spending their days in iron
lungs, wheel-chairs, on crutches j
and held up by heavy, cumber
some braces. Maybe, if for rn
other reason, it is to teach vs
what real couraec and fortitude
can be in the face of stark ad
versity.

THE OLD WEST—When was thej
sound barrier first broken? If I
our scientists are correct it was j
i somewhere out on the Western
1 njnins. when the first bullwhipl
was cracked over a team of stub
i born oxen. The scientists claim
! that the “crack” of the whip is
[ caused by' the tip of the whip
j traveling at a speed in excess of
| sound. High speed cameras were
used to prove that the whip, trav
eling through space at a high
speed, actually broke the sound
barrier.

for the most part they are not

Every President's economic re
port is a political document. As
a result, the report will be rather
generous in the claims it makes
for the wisdom of the Admini
j stratum and its policies. In this
j regard the current analysis is no
I exception, but its contention of
the part Government play dm
bringing about the recovery s
more modest than many in the
past.
Most of the credit for the up
swing in business is given to non
j governmental action—to the “in-'
j hcreut features of our economy
... to our free competitive in
stitutions. To the stability of our
institutions of savings, banking
and finance, and the character of
our people, notably their indus
try and resourcefulness and their
capacity to take a confidence and
balanced view of the nation’s eco
nomic prospects.”
“Our objective,” in the words
of the report, “now must the to es
tablish a firm foundation for ex
tending this economic advance
and price stability into the
months and years ahead.” To ac
complish this, it said:
1. "We must zealously safe
guard and improve the institu
j tions of our free and competitive
j economy.”
2. We must “wage a relentless
’ battle against impediments to the
full and most effective use of our
human and technological re- \
sources."
3. “We must continue to en- j
large and improve the plant and j
equipment that supplant human
effort and make it increasingly
productive.”
4. There must be “firm confi
dence that the value of the dollar
will be reasonably stable in the
years ahead.”
In other words, we must main
tain competition, improve outpu:
J per manhour, encourage private
I capital investment, and protec!
| the value of our currency. That
| is the recurring theme of the re
[ port, but most emphasis is placed
| upon preventing inflation. Over
and over there are statements to
the effect that we must have
growth at a sustainable rate
without inflation.
Every segment of our nation
must cooperate if we are to have
growth with stable prices. Gov
ernment must hold spending
within reasonable bounds and be
low the level of the current fiscal
year. Our tax system must be re
formed to eliminate the present
stifling affect upon savings and
divestment. The Federal debt
must be managed with superb
skill. And Congress must stop
coming to the aid of everv indus
try or line of activity which runs
into economic troubles.
The banking system must lim-

it expansion of credit and the
money supply to a non-inflation
ary growth rate. The Federal
Reserve Board of Governors will
be intimately involved in such
limitation.
Management must have the |
courage and foresight to invest in |
; labor saving machinery and other \
j capital improvements, to resist j
I unwarranted wage demands, and
1 to develop new products which
.appeal to the public,
j Labor leaders must forget the I
| idea that there should be a wage
| increase for their members every
I year, regardless of the profitabili
ty of the employers. |
Business men and local public
officials ’must stop running to
Washington for financial aid for
everything they think might be
to their benefit.
And, the public at large must
exercise care in its buying, and
show its disapproval of increas
ing prices.
Obviously this is a trying pro
gram. But it is not a program of
austerity. It merely means that
consideration for the welfare ol
others must be given at least
equal weight to selfish interests.
That is not asking too much
when one bears in mind that the
alternative is.erosion of the value
of the dollar, recession, unem
ployment. end a general weaken
:ne of the nation.
CHRISTIAN SCIENCE
The healing power of spiritual |
enlightenment will be emphasiz 'd i
at Christian Science services l
Sunday.
Paul’s healing of the cripple at
I Lystra, as related in the Bonk

\ in the Scriptural selections in the

A correlative passage to be 1
read from “Science and Health
with Key to the Scriptures” by
| Mary Baker Eddy declares (324: •
I 19): "Paul was not at first a dis-j
eiple of Jesus but a persecutor of
Jesus' followers. When the truth
first appeared to him in. Science, !
Paul was made blind, and his
blindness was felt: but spiritual
