The New Year
The New Year cometh and the old year must depart, and so it has been for centuries.
Once every 365 days, the world pauses for a moment of refl«rtion w for a brief but
meaningful examination of self apd surroundings. Then, with a shrug, a new, unfetter
ed page is prepared to record the fulfillment of a new
set of ambitions, intentions and purposes.
Through the centuries, customs and traditions have
contributed to the New Year observance to make it
more than a time to marie the passing of another era.
It is a season of awakening to the realization that we
have not accomplished all of the things once planned. It
is a time to be grateful for the blessings received. It is
a time to plan and hope; to lay the mental foundation
for new ambitions and aspirations. _
While New Year resolutions are no more worthy, nor
more likeily to be kept, than resolutions made at Thanks
giving or Christmas, there is a psychological advantage
that favors the custom of making New Year promises.
The New Year marks the beginning of another era and,
in a sense, we start with “a dear slate.” There are other
advantages, too. We are older, wiser, and should have
profited from our experiences, good and bad.
One need not make resolutions, however, to profit from the coming of a New Year.
Blueprint ambitions and dreams are no more important than a determined effort to do
things a little better, learn a little more and give whatever talents we may possess to
the making of a better world in which we live.
And there’s no better time to start than with the New Year, when each bright new
page on the calendar has ample room to record every achievement.

Pension Crazy
An Associated Press news dispatch re
ports that the ambition of Britain’s male
high school seniors is a nice safe job with
a pension at retirement. A London head
master who has made a study of the situ
ation concludes, “Nobody wants to be at
the top of anything.” He was discouraged
to find that not a single boy wanted to be
prime minister, admiral of the fleet, field
marshall, ambassador to the United States,
archbishop of Canterbury or head of the
Bank of England. “Instead,” he said, “the
boys look forward to becoming clerks, man
ual workers, draughtsmen and hairdressers
... We are turning out hordes of prema
ture pensioners of life.” The headmaster
based his findings on questionnaires the
boys had turned in to government employ
ment officers.
Pet squirrels in a city park live for but
one thing — peanuts tossed to them by
amused superiors. A nation of welfare stat
ers winds up on the same boat.

The Cross Hill - MountvflW
Home Demonstration Club held
its December meeting at the
home of Mrs. Jerome Finley,
with Mrs. Hugh Jones as co-host
ess.
The president, Mrs. Roger
Gabbert, opened the meeting by
reading the thought for the
month.
The project song for the month
was sung.
Mrs. J. A. McKittrick gave an
inspiring Christmas devotional.
Thirteen members responded to
the roll call, with each telling
what she liked most about Hie
Christmas season.
Mrs. Harold Bishop was pro
gram leader. Her subject was
“Leisure Time for the Family.”
A reading, “Please Fix Ros
ie.” was given by Mrs. P. H.
Miller.
Miss Taylor gave the demon
stration on Christmas decora
tions.
After the program the ex
change of gifts was enjoyed by
all.
The hostesses served refresh
ments.
Suppose
Cuba, made into a Soviet base only 90
miles from the southernmost tip of Hie
United States, was a menace we could not
accept, whatever the risks our opposition
involved.
But there are other menaces to the se
curity and strength of this country than the
Soviet empire and its many satellites. Not
the least is the spending of billions for non-
essential purposes which presents a con
stant threat to the value of our currency,
which is a source of spiraling wages and
other costs, and which reduces, step by
step, the power and prestige of the nation.
This is no longer a question of what we
might like a paternalistic government to
provide for us. It is a question of what w’e
can afford.
Suppose, for instance, this Administra
tion came out for rigid economy in every
area of government? Suppose the Ameri
can people were told, clearly and unequi
vocally, that a sound currency, and an ef
ficient economy capable of meeting world
competition, are as much an element of
power as great military forces, and that
the price of freedom and survival in this
age is the elimination of needless waste?
Suppose they were told the simple truth?
One need have no worry as to what the
response would be.
Everett, Wash., Herald: “In order to
take advantage of woman-power, the nation
has been encouraging girls to study science
and engineering. There is, however, no
flood of the fair sex into these fields. A
513-member freshman class at Case Insti
tute of Technology in Cleveland, one of the
leading engineering schools, indudes only
two girls. But when the gals think about
this for a moment, and study the male-fe
male ratio of 5U to 2, they may be inclin
ed to reconsider.”
By THUBMAN
Executive
SOUTHERN STATES INDUSTBIAL COUNCIL
While the Kennedy administration continues
to plug the Alliance for Progress and tells the
nation that it is winning friends and ifluencing
people in Latin America, U. S. business firms
that operate in the area know better. Not often,
however, do these private enterprise organisa
tions speak out in candid fashion.
But one such company—the International
Telephone and Telegraph Corporation—has spok
en out wiht unusual frankness. It has issued a
white paper in which it documents the "mistreat
ment” of private enterprise in Latin America.
It points out that this mistreatment is threatening
relations between this country and he Latin na
tions.
Among the important facts set forth in this
white paper is notice that net private invest
ment in Latin America will reach an all-time
low in 1982—“possibly even resulting in a minus
figure.”
ITT does business in 20 of 21 Latin nations
and gives employment ttr -r^ore than 21,000 per
sons in those lands. Its enterprises account for
approximately one-fifth of the estimated $8 bil
lion to $9 billion in U. S. Investment in South and
Central America.
ITT cited Braxil’s seizures of American prop
erties as examples of how private investment
should not be treated if it is to continue. The
company said that In February of 1982, the seiz
ure of ITT properties in the Brazilian state of Rio
Grande Sul represented a climax of three
years of Brazilian “aggression” against Ameri
can companies.
Since May, 1969, the white paper declared,
there has been expropriation of U. S. and foreign
power properties in three Brazilian states. “Con
currently,” the paper noted, “the Brazilian food
supply and price control agency in July, 1962, pro
posed expropriation of three American-owned food
packing companies, and a Britisho-wned packing
firm.”
Earlier, said the report, “five mining conces
sions held for many years’ by an American com
pany were “summarily revoked.” And the white
paper added that “by decree of May 30, 1982, the
Brazilian federal government has proposed a so-
called ‘global plan’ for the expropriation of all
(foreign-owned) pubic utilities.”
This report should be read by the American
people with full realization that the United States
government has committed over $900 million to
Brazil since thes tart of the Kenedy administra
tion’s Aliance for Progress program on March
13, 1961.
The American people also need to know that
the white paper points out that no Brazilian au
thority has “offered anything approaching rea
sonable compensation” for the properties seized
from owners in the United States.
When asets of.these big companies are seized,
it is not simply a few very wealthy individuals
who suffer. American corporations today are
owned by thousands of. people in all walks of
life—teachers, widows, small business men and
others. Pension and other funds shares in the
companies that do business in Latin America.
When a Latin American country seises proper
ties belonging to a large U. S. firm and refuses
to give adequate compensations, great numbers
of Americans incur financial loss.
It is toerudible, in view of the Brazilian record,
that the Kennedy administration should be pump
ing more and more U. S. tax dollars In Brazil and
other Latin countries that treat America badly.
Yet that is what is being done.
Surely the American people will demand a halt
to such unconscionable giveaways once they un
derstand what is taking place in Brazil. The
ITT white paper should help develop such under
standing in the United States. It should be wide
ly read. The situation should be studied. The
people should check with their Congressmen as
to their position on it. It is stupid to have some
one steal part of your property and then give
that person a purse full of money to go along
with it.
