Most of us are Republi cans of Democrats according to where we live or how we were trained as children. This means that the birth rate will largely be the de ciding factor under a democracy Democracy and Kronomici—~- Tliis further means that democ racy, with everyone having a vote irrespective Of character or educa- iion in government, is crazy and cannot long continue. There must be a shakedown some time .ind a re turn to the republic which Washing ton, Franklin, and Hamilton estab-’ lished in 1788 We have drifted far away from our original ideals. I am, however, allowed to dis cuss economics in this column. Let me start by saying that no one know* what will be the effect on business and investments of the “un- been devised to prevent another real depression.

Birth Announcement Sherrill * • Mr. and Mrs. Frank Sherrill an- Lostei Longshore nounce the birth of a son, Eric Lee, knows what electricity is, where it comes from, why it travels, or where it goes Yet, we ail use elec tricity continually. Economic forces are just as powerful even though they cannot be seen. For Congress to try to ignore them is like legislat ing that "2 plus 2 must hereafter make 5.” Almost every Congressman be lieves in his heart that the present regulation of farpi prices is a mis take They believe that Secretary Benson is bascially right, but they dare not say so for fear of losing the farmers’ vote,. What the ultimate result will he, no one knows. Some say these artificial prices will fi nally end our present form of gov ernment. W’e dare not say so be cause neither I nor anyone else knows. Certainly we are SKATING ON ICE of unknown thickness. One per son whom I see is very bearish; another is optimistic. We are all toying with questions to which neither Congress nor the President know's the answers. Following the depression of the thirties, Congress enacted many “cure-alls” to relieve pain. These’should work for a while in relieving hunger, warding off failures, and performing other acts of mercy; but in most cases they may’serve only a$ mustard plasters or aspirin when our people need a change of character, almost a re ligious conversion. Previous depres sions were allowed tq last until sel fishness was replaced by unseliish- ih'ssj until inefficiency was-replac ed by Efficiency; and dishonesty by honesty. Now Congress plans to bring back prosperity without re storing these fundamentals of unsel fishness, efficiency, and honesty. Can this safely lie done? Whar fs Scientific Education? . Washington apparently thinks that Science j-efers only to physics and chemistry, this is a great mistake: Economics .sociology, and rperchan- dising are sciences of equal impor tance. Russia can give us some great surprises along these lines, far more important than “Sput niks.” A nation progresses only by a balanced education, not by going off half-cocked on one line. What will the young physicists and chem ists do if we enter upon a workable disarmament program? They will be "a dime a dozen.” Were I a young man or w’oman today, I should become an expert on the subjects taught at Institutes of Business and AdmiAistration. The graduates of such institutions will be in great demand as we approach disarmament. Almost every sane man in Washington will admit that the, ultimate choice is “disarma ment or Destruction.” If World War 111 comes, all of our schools may be laid low and their graduates kill ed!

Have you ever wondered who keeps the telephone lines around here in working order? A telephone man. to be sure, tH? installer-repairman. And, when storm damage repairs or maintenance are necessary, cable splicers have to be ”johnnies-on-the-spot.” In all kind? of weather at any hour of the day or night they're at work—up poles, down manholes, out in the country, right on your street. And just being there isn’t enough. They have to know what they are doing; whidFwTFes to join and how to join them. It takes know-how and a lot of hard work to keep telephone hnes in order and our telephones ready to serve everyone, all the time. * * * "/SN'T-tTABOUT T/Mf Wf GOT A PHONE fOK UPSTAIRS? 1 ' Mrs. Ballew Honored Mrs. J R.

In hot weather, sound? are weaker, don’t carry as far. As this applies to telephone communications, it was a problem that worried telephone people. Then the Bell Laboratories found an answer. It’s the thermistor, an electronic device that controls the volume of voices on the telephone. It keeps them from being too loud in cold weather and too low in warm weather. It’s so sensitive it can detect a temperature change to one-millionth of a degree, x.
