V THE CLINTON CHRONICLE Thursday, October 19, 1961 College Renders A Community Service Presbyterian College will render an emi nently worthwhile service to the commu nity in conducting an adult evening school, which was scheduled to begin Tuesday and continue for ten weeks. The courses offered are varied and no doubt will appeal to many who have been awaiting just such an opportunity to broad en their knowledge and improve their tal ents. We congratulate our local college upon joining other institutions in the widespread move to make their facilities available upon a wider scale. The Community Chest Needs Your Support The second report meeting Tuesday morn ing of workers and officials of Clinton’s Community Chest revealed that only 64 per cent of the budget of $20,560.75 had been subscribed or pledged in the current drive for funds for the coming year. A total of $11,163 was reported by the so licitors. We have no doubt that the full amount will be raised. In the event that any residents have not been solicited, they are urged to contact any of the officials or workers and make a contribution or pledge, so that the work of the organization can go forward according to the budget. Funds are distributed monthly to the par ticipating agencies, and it is eminently de sired that each agency receive its full share of the budget adopted earlier this year. Prove your interested citizenship by do ing your share for the Community Chest. The Peace Corps- Fiasco No. 1 Events in Nigeria. Africa, that had to do with comments alwut the country by a young woman member of the U. S. Peace Corps sur- prised no one who questioned the wisdom of the organization of such an outfit in the first place. We predict it will be only the forerunner of similar occurrences in the future. True, the comments were made in a pri vate communication to a friend back in the U. S., and were not intended to become pub lic. The post card on which derogatory sen timents about the country were expressed was lost and found by students at the uni versity attended by the young woman. Wide circulation was given to what she had to say. It is beside the point that her comments were probably true. * These people, young and inexperienced, and recruited in a hurry to go out and tell other people in “undeveloped” areas of the world how to live, will get this country into a peck of trouble before they are brought back home. “Soft-Headed Philosophy” Fonner President Eisenhower, now an elder statesman with a working lifetime of service to the nation behind him, recently said this: “Addiction to a soft-headed philos ophy that federal money can cure every na tional ill could undermine one of the greatest resources of America—the sturdiness of and self-dependence of the individual citizen; it could ultimately cost our people their liber ty. “The unending drive for federal domina tion of the nation’s power and water re sources, and the ever-increasing federal in volvement in urban problems, agriculture, j housing, care of the youth and the aged. the. ill and the poor, and the temporarily unem-! ployed, can only end—if unchecked—in a dangerous centralization of power. “Continued, this tendency will ultiniately destroy the will and the ability of the in dividual and community to govern them selves.” To that clear and eloquent statement, noth ing needs to be added. Long centuries of his tory prove the truth of the former Pres idents words.

Hurricane News Of The Week Bahson Park. Mass., October 19—There are many reasons why we should be greatly interest ed in Christmas business—whether we are darks, storekeepers, manufacturers, or consumers. CHRISTMAS TRADE AS A BUSINESS GAUGE The feelings of the nation are usually revealed in the volume and the temper of Christmas buy ing. A number of years ago 1 was of the opinion that statistics dictated the nation's business, par ticularly as regards credit available and work ers’ wages But now I have come to realize that led courses in classic guitar, business is not only ruled by figures, but also 1 The artist made his successful very much by feelings.

PURCHASING SUPPORTS EMPLOYMENT There is, of course, more to Christmas buying than immediately greets the eye. When you select a present for a relatives or a friend, you actually begin an individual business cycle. Not only do you give pleasure to the person receiving the gift, but you give material help to the retailer, provid ing him with the cash that he requires to conduct his important distributing operations Remem ber, too. that your money not only gives him his small profit (a few cents out of your dollar), but it also'moves along in part to the producer, the clerks, the landlord, the advertising outlets, and others directly or indirectly involved.

Internal Revenue says you can do that if you do so out of profits but R is not a legitimate deduction as a bus iness expense. “This takes on a rather frightening aspect when you consider that many businesses in this country are in competition with the gov ernment itself. That puts one business in the position of silencing its competitors." ‘The criterion is whether or not you are engaged in influencing legislation. We al ways thought this was what America was all about—everyone had a chance to be heard on such things. Now we are told that tax- free government-operated business can be heard but taxable private institutions can not without penalty. ‘The next logical step is for Internal Rev enue, or someone in Congress, to declare that editorial opinion in newspapers, magazines, or over the air, with respect to impending legislation falls in the same category. . . storekeeper's payment to the manufacturer per mits him to employ more people. The manufac turer's workers tend to spend their wages at the store, thus completing the all-important cycle When the cycle described works smoothly, the entire nation enjoys prosperous times. If the cy cle breaks down at any point, business and em ployment decline (they are two barometers that always move together). Then, unless something is done to repair the break, we are likely to slide into a depression HOLIDAY BUYING, 1961 All signs thus far point to a good Christmas season for 1961, even though it is always possible I sun " for some last-minute occurrence to change the outlook. Readers will get my detailed "Outlook for 1962" in this paper the last week of December It will treat of Business, Inflation, Retail Trade. Wages. Employment, Politics, and the Stock Mar ket. From what I see now, this Forecast should indicate a Merry Christmas for you. All sections of the country, of course, will not be equally happy this Christmas The thousands of families in Texas and other areas which have suffered damaged and lost homes from hurri canes and floods cannot be expected to forget their losses On the other hand, states which have been drought-ridden are rejoicing over recent rains The weather could still be a big factor in this year's Christmas buying. In fact, we are inclined not to attach enough importance to un governable forces such as weather, flood, epi demics, threat of war, etc. BUILDING SHELTERS The present rush to build fallout shelters poses another question for business. Too much talk along these lines could hurt general trade. Manu facturers may ask, "If this fallout is coming, why work so hard? Why bother?" And workers may give more thought to the problems of finding shelter than doing their jobs or spending their Christmas bonuses. Worry about the future could conceivably have a darkening effect on the out look for retail trade this approaching Holiday Season. the services will be supplied by visiting choirs.

The rocket looms skyward, and seema to penetrate the infinite. But it hasn’t Man’s greatest efforts fall far abort of solving the mystery that is life itself. The answer is known only unto God. And man’s greatest troubles still concern not the universe but man himaelf, his fellowmen. The greatest scientists today realize even more acutely than most of us the limitations of mankind. From deep, personal experience they know how des perately man needs God’s love and His guidance. And they know, too, that no matter how “invincible H their rockets may become, in the end, true peace can be achieved only by God's own workings within the hearts and minds of men.
