Tensions
'Wr like to think thiit we are living in a
hijrhly civiliml and very advanced world.”
saya William larkvchairman of the hoard of
American Stores. “We point with pri«k* to all
th> thinga we have that make for ‘better liv
ing’ that our forefathers never enjoyed. Yet
m almost any’-newspaper you can read of
broken homes, murders and a< whole host of
* rimes that make your blood run cold. . . .
"I think this is a rather sad ctfmmentary
on our way of living in this so-called ’en
lightened age’. We cannot help but wonder if
human nature has changed at all through the
centuries. I doubt if it has.
"If you read the Old Testament of the
Bible, you will see recorded many murders
ami other sins of all sorts. The world was in
a constant state of war. People even then
were rest less and full of tensions.”

What Farmers Want
Farm Journal, the leading magazine in its
field, has polled its readers to find out just
what kind of a government farm plan they
really want.
The results will come as a big surprise Jto
those who think fanners as a whole want
more and more government aids, controls
and supports.
Here’s how the vote adds up: 55/< want
total abandonment of supports and controls,
and a return to the free market ; 15'/< favor
supports on an emergency basis only; 8'<
want adjusted supports which would permit a
gradual return to normal markets over a pe
riod of time. In sum. therefore. 78/< favor
plans calling either for no support or for less
support.
By contrast, only 14 V* say they want high
price supports, of 90/i to 100% of parity,
and only 8% favor the production payment
plan.
The percentages were pretty much the
-ame in all sections of the country- Among
the different commodities, fanners specializ-
ng m poultry, beef, or fruit and vegetables
are the most inclined to get rid of supports.
Wheat and grain producers are least dis-
iuse«l to do this—-but. e%en so, close to half
of them tonnider u the thing to do.

When The Owners Speak
Fjich Spring our American corporations
hold their annual stockholders’ meetings.
Time was when these were sparsely attend-
ed, by a orniparative handful of investors
with big holdings. But that time has gone.
Sylvia Porter, the well-known financial col
umnist, tells the story as it is today. Stock-
holds come to the meetings in almost army
sized legions—one big company received no
tices that 25.000 planned to attend. This
zooming attendance is the result of several
forces. Miss Porter writes: “One, of course,
is the spread in stock ownership to an un
precedented total of many millions of middle-
class citizens. Another is the fact that in re
cent years leading stink exchanges have beenj
promoting the idea that a stockholder is an
owner of tJie corporation and he should takej-
an active interest in his company’s activi
ties. A third is that corporations themselves
have been going in for lavish meetings on Trullick Completes

What is the solution? Fim and foremost
is a balanced budget, which would do more
than anything else to save what is left of the
dollar’s purchasing power. And this is as
urgent a need as the country faces.
Unfortunately our law-makers, both state
and national, seem to have developed such a
tolerance for the inflation drug, that their
appetites demand more rather than less of
the poison—the remedy lies with the voters.

I repeat that Secretary Herter will play with the

might not be better for us to give some of our foreign

cold war is over. Mr. Herter, with his first name
