The National Outlook
.The Joint Economic Committee Report
By Ralph Robey
| f t, ' itJnder the Employment Act
Kof -1946 it was provided that
B should be created a Presi-
M dent’s Council of Economic Ad
■ visers and a Joint Economic
K Committee. The latter was giv-
K en the function of reviewing the
K annual economic report to the
If President and making its ap-
Kfjwisal to the Congress. The
■ c<*nmittee has done this year
Kaier year and also has made
I inpny special studies. Last year |
■ it got the authority to make an j
K in jestigation of "unemployment,!
I gi iwth and price levels.” Its
I rc iort on this was issued a few
■di rs ago.
I 'he- joint committee chairman
Eis Democratic Senator Paul
B D jglas of Illinois. When the
I st (dv was started many of us |
|w re deeply worried because of]
B tti j kAown so-called "liberalism”
Boi Douglas. However, so many
|| n tl authorities were invited to
I' aj pear before the committee that i
I o; - worries disappeared. More j
p a< purately, we recognized that if
it a left-wing report was issued it
i' v >uld have to be in spite of the 1
I « iellent material presented to i
symbol' '"
-■ /of a humble heart m j||
j ii When we were children, mpst of us were taught
i to kneel at our bedsides to pray. We didn’t know
exactly why, but we knelt. '
'As we grew up, we got out of the habit. Many of
|US now even resent the idea of kneeling at all and
Strangely enough, particularly in church.'
1 *
To Episcopalians, the act of kneeling for prayer is
i perfectly natural. In fact, to us, it’s a symbol of a
humble and |tontrite heart appearing before God’s
Majesty, either in worship or supplication.
- To many who attend an Episcopal Chwch Sendee
(for the first time, all the standing and sitting and
i ! kneeling appears to be some sort of meaningless and
’ : 1 unnecessary mumbo-jumbo. Not so! It’s this wayi
, - ( f We stand to praise (singing hymns or reading the
Psalms), we kneel to pray, and we sit to listen (to
scripture lessons, and sermons).
, ' It’s all very simple. We use the Book of Common
Prayer, and we join with the minister in the entire
service. Wt are participants, not just spectators.

Inaccurate Staff Study
The nrst intimation that a
slanted report was on its way
j was the study prepared by the
I staff technical director. Ottq
I Eckstein, which was dated .De
cember 24, 1959. This long
document, 488 pages, is one of
the most amazing analyses ever
issued by an intelligent person.
It is inaccurate, distorted and
prejudiced, and when it appeared
wc all hoped that the committee
itself would simply ignore this
staff study in the preparation of
its final report.
This hope also proved to be
ill-founded. The majority report
of the, committee is almost as
bad as the* staff study. It reads
much more like a campaign man
ual than a serious economic
analysis, and it split the com
mittee wide open. The minority !
report, signed by the six Re
publican members, says that the
majority report is "partisan,
cavalier about simple rules of
logic and evidence, and disre
spectful of legitimate differences
of values, opinions and judg-
ments.” In more detail it is
said "the majority report is
needlessly partisan is unbal
anced and evasive—is internally
inconsistent.”
The majority report is 61
pages long; the minority report,
20 pages. Senator Butler (R-
Md.) in addition to signing the
I minority report, added some 40
j pages of further analysis and
criticism. This is of high qual-
1 ity— the best in the entire vol
ume. Senator Butler says that
the majority report "makes
12 generalized recommendations,
one of which embraces 9 sepa
rate federal programs.” He
briefly discusses each of these
j recommendations and concludes:
"most of the policies set forth
in the majority’s report would
entail additional federal: spend
ing leading to more Inflation,
price instability and eventually
unemployment. ’
$200,000 For Study
Congress authorized $200,000
for this study. Oyer 100 wit
nesses were heard by the eom
| mittee, all of whom did an
i enormous amount of work in
preparation for their appear
ance; and 23 special papers were
written for the use of the com
mittee. All of this material is
available to students and the
public, and much of it is truly
excellent. Most persons, how
ever, have neither the time nor
the inclination to go over such
a mass of economic discussion.
At the moment, therefore, j
there is no escaping the conclu- .
sion that scores and scores of j
our best econoomic scholars have >
been imposed upon, that the
prestige of the Joint Economic
Committee has been undermined
to a serious degree, and that a
wonderful opportunity for con
structive work has been . lost—
probably lost irretrievably.
33 Farms Choose
‘B’ Cotton Allotment
Continued from Page 1, Section 1
while throughout the nation
farmers controlling 18 percent
of the allotted acreage chose
choice “B”. This Godfrey said,
is an indication that the larger;
farms throughout the nation'
seem to be more inclined toj
select the choice “B” with the
larger allotment and the lower
price support rate.
Nationwide the acreage plant
ed for cotton in 1960 as a result
for fanners selecting choice "B”
will be a million'acres greater
than it would otherwise have
been. The national cotton al
lotment according to Godfrey,
was originally slightly over 16
million acres. This allotment
because of choice made by 6.4
percent of the nation’s farmers,
will be in excess of 17 million
acres.
Thirty-three farms have elect
ed to plant the choice , 'B” cot
ton allotment in Chowan Coun
ty for the 1960 crop year.
Faith is required of thee, and
a sincere life, not loftiness of
intellect, nor deepness in the
mysteries of God.
—Thomas A. Kempis.
