Need Rude Awakening. f *1; t / • . By ROGER BABSON Babson Park, Fla., Feb. 15. Since leaving Massachusetts for my usual winter in Florida, I have had a chance to observe and ponder. Per haps readers- will be interested in my conclusions. Outlook In Asia Mainland I find very litle interest in the Korean War, except to get the boys home! Most people can’t tell you where Korea, Indo-Chino or Iran are located. There is no “will-tor fight.” I have been through World Wars I and II; but never experienced the present indif ference. 1116 United Na tions — under our leadership — did right in attempt- W. Bafesaa j n g to defend South Korea. Since, however, the North Koreans got the backing of China and Russian, the situation does not look good. If we attempt to defend Indo-China, Iran, the Suez Canal and Persia, we may get licked or busted. Wfe must, how ever, hold Japan and Formosa. Graft In Govarnmant President Truman is probably doing his best to eliminate the graft. But it has started a “chain- reaction,” which is spreading over the entire country. It is “smart” to beat the tax collector today, the same as it was smart to beat the prohibition officer 25 years ago. The exposures have made the racketeers more careful; but the public is turning to more gambling, liquor drinking, and sex careless awakening can sav# us. Commander Wilson Praised Church attendance is falling off, especially among the youth. Sun day schools are folding up. Sun day observance and Family Pray ers have almost entered “horse- and buggy” history. But the Amer ican Legion has started ‘ what may cause a, great religious revival, backed by Com. Wilson. o Newspapers give jtoo much space to Sports. High schools and col leges foolishly give tbo much em phasis to football, baseball and bas ketball. Chambers of Commerce had better work 4o have their com munities lead in spelling, arithmetic and decent English! Are Wage* Too High? Another mistake is the Minimum Wage Law, giving youth so much wild money to spend. A Minimum Wage Law should apply only to those who have worked a required number of years. Present Wage Laws are unfair to experienced workers and are harming millions of young people. Salaries, wages, and even prof its, should be dependent upon pro duction. For wages to be increased with the cost-of-living will hasten the next depression. It is like try ing to put out a fire with kero sene. Truth About Inflation I am tired of hearing politicians talk about inflation, without ex plaining that it is a RESULT of our troubles, rather than a CAUSE. When labor asks for more wages “because of inflation,” ita leaders putting the cart before the to cover this increase in wages, taxes, etc. This is the real truth about Inflation. Doubtless pensions, subsidies, and old-age benefits are temporarily good for business, but someday this bubble will burst. Automobiles, movies and radio—plus T.V.—have the if usefulness, but these inven- tionl^sfria also responsible for wast ing billibns of dollars. In a way, the slype reckless spending is pro oftfe portiomdely going on in England, France, Germany and South Amer ica. The motto there is: “Eat, drink and be merry for tomorrow Russia may strike.” Without a world spiritual awak ening and new sources of power— from gravity or the sun—the Unit ed States and our Allies may be beaten in our Asiatic MAINLAND war campaigns. If so, this will be followed by an economic collapse in the United States, with unem ployment and lower wages and lower prices for everything. Rus sia hopes this will lead to Com munism in this country and make the entire world Communistic. This tetter I do not fear: RATHER, I BELIEVE THAT SUCH AN EC ONOMIC COLLAPSE COULD RE DEEM OUR PEOPLE’S SOULS- LIKE PURIFYING GOLD WITH FIRE—AND BE FOLLOWED BY MANY YEARS OF GREAT PROS PERITY. Boys’ Leader Testifies are horse.” Their arguments are false. Inflation starts from three causes: (1) Higher wages, (2) Higher taxes and (3) Reduced production com pared with demand for goods. When wages, taxes and demand in crease, then farmers, manufactur ers, merehants, doctors, lawyers ness than ever. Only a religious and everyone else raise their prices IN 1952...HOME OWNERSHIP If you decide to buy or build your own home this year, see us about a sensible home loan It’s our aim to offer terms and condi- of financing that are found and tions ot financing that are worked out to fit your needs and income Each monthly payment reduces the arfiount you owe, and our plan brings you to debt* free ownership.
