The End Does Not
Justify The Means
Two hundred and ten thousand civil
rights pilgrims flowed into the National
Capital^-and out again after an orderly cent study by the National Education As-
and pretty soon, everybody's got a runny
nose.
Actually, not quite everybody. There
still are people, as the funny-man says,
who “can’t even catch a cold.” But a re-
and amiable demonstration of unprece
dented proportions and in the spirit of a
subdued revival. They sang their song,
“We Shall Overcome”, but with the feel
ing of “Every Day’ll Be Sunday Bye and
Bye.”
All in all, it was a poignant, if gigan
tic, expression of faith in the power of
sociatioif shows that the average U. S.
youngster ( missed 18.9 days out of the last
school year. To realize the scope of this
problem, just multiply 18.9 by 40 million!
A curious fact is the wide variation by
states shown in the NEA count of lost
shooldays. The State of Washington is ap
parently our healthiest, with 10.6 days lost
Congress, under the benevolent leadership per student, and Utah with 11.2 days. At
of an all-wise Administration, to wipe out the other end of the scale, Nevada showed

days, plan a good, nourishing diet and try
to see the fellow who has a cold before he
sees us!
Civil Rights and
Legal Wrongs
For the first time in the peacetime his
tory of the United States, it is proposed
in legislation now pending before Congress
to deny the right of trial by jury!
This is one of the more important (and
least publicized) aspects of S. 1731 and
H. R. 7152—that legislative Trojan Horse
named “The Civil Rights Act of 1963”—in
which dictatorial Federal control of busi-
V
ness, industry, individual citizens and the
“sovereign” states is disguised as protec
tion of racial and religious minorities.
Under this insidious bill, the judgment
of Federal inspectors, appointed to bring
about social reforms, would supersede our
traditional and Constitutional judicial pro
cesses. Through the sly device of eliminat
ing criminal penalties, those who drew the
bill have made it so a violator of the “pub
lic accommodations” section (Title II),
would be brought without hearing before a
judge and placed under Federal Injunction
to cease and desist whatever act of dis
crimination the Federal overseer may have
charged him with. And the penalty would
be fine or imprisonment for contempt of
court—from which there is no appeal.
Given this cloak of civil rights, the
President would thus have raw, unchal
lenged power. Similarly, under other pro
visions of the bill, Federal control would
be extended to every home, every school,
every business, every bank and to every
citizen w r ho owns property or casts a vote.
The president—or his political appointees—
would have the power to tell the owners
of every business whom they may hire,
fire, promote or demote; to call, foreclose
or refuse loans; to exclude individuals and
businesses from federal programs, activi
ties, subsidies and benefts; to blacklist
banks, contractors, schools, businesses and
individuals. Think of that.
As one critic has said: “The Administra
tion’s bill proposes, in effect, that the Con
gress abdicate, and turn its legislative pow
ers over to the White House. The powers
here demanded are not the powers right
fully to be exercised by a President in a
free country'. These are the powers of a
despot.”
Babson Discusses
Job Opportunities Ahead
Note That Date
When does the cold-season start?
The first day of school—that’s when
it starts. Research scientists have now
proved that the spread of colds, like other
virus-caused infections is accelerated by
i the mixing of populations. In fixed, stable
groups which are not exposed to strang
ers, cold-like infections, they say, tend to
die out and do not reappear until there is
la contact outside the group. Surveys also
show that youngsters of elementary school
age have five times as many colds as
grown-ups and that colds continue to be
I the major factor in school absences.
Thus, it should be crystal clear what
I happens when all kindergarteners, or all
jthe fourth-graders or the eighth assemble
Jfrom all over the school district to begin a
|new scholastic year. If there’s one cold in
bunch, it swiftly becomes common prop-
ty. No doubt that’s why they call this
ledkal mystery the “common” cold. The
cids take their new-found infections home,
Ithe
Babson Park, Mass., September 5—My advice
to young men and women entering college this fall
is not necessarily to major in whatever seems
good right now. They should consider, instead
what is likely to look good several years from how
—after they get out of school.
SUCCESSFUL WORKERS LOOK AHEAD
The difference between the college graduate
who just holds down a job and the one who gets
promoted on a job Is that the successful climber
knows enough to look ahead. For example, the
young man ar woman who is a careful career
planner wants to know first where the road he
hopes to take is heading. Better this than to ac
cept what looks like a good job
now and be regretful later on.
My father told me long ago, and
I have told my grandchildren
the same thing: The first step in
planning a career is to appraise
y o u r o w n interests, values,
goals,, personality, and abilities.
You’ve got to like the job you’re
doing, too.
It is a sad and much too com
mon sight to see a fellow butt
his head against a wall trying to compete in a
position for which he lacks both the proper per
sonality and the basic aptitude. If you want to
be a succes, develop your assets and do work for
which you are fitted and which makes you hap
py. These steps I feel are essential, but they do
not go far enough. All job hunters should investi
gate, in their search, the probable future expan
sion and growth of the industries being consider
ed.
WHERE OUR ECONOMY 18 GOING .
Our population right now is close to 190,000,-
000, and further definite gains lie ahead. More
than 70,000,000 are gainfully employed. Our
gross national product has climbed to $580 bil
lion, and still further advances are in store over
the years ahead. With a shorter working uweek
and more efficient production, our people should
receive in wages, interest, and other income
about $550 billion by the time this year’s college
entrants graduate in 1967.
‘ Spendable income should grow greater in the
coming period, and there should certainly be a
continued expansion In consumer spending as a
result. This will open ever broader opportuni
ties for those going into advertising and the sell
ing of new products. My forecast assumes, of
course, that the international situation will not
grow worse and that there will be a generally fa
vorable economic climate so that business can
operate Without serious disruption
LOOKING TOWARD 1967
Labor costs—both industrial and agricultural
—should continue to rise, so give close attention
to industries that make labor-saving devices such
as materials-handling equipment, conveyors,
farm machinery, contsruction machinery, office
machines, and automated processors. Remem
ber, too, that the need for more new roads, hos
pitals, and schools is bound to boom construction
as the population increases. Still further devel
opment of new materials will ensure gain* In
light metals and high-speed alloys. Look also
to the chemical industry, which could surpass
most other lines as a result of unending re
search in farm chemicals, drugs, petrochemicals,
plastics, and synthetic fibers.
I see no end to the uses of electricity, and
output rapidly will move ahead. Both domestic
and foreign markets will expand for electrical
appliances such as clothes dryers, electric blank
ets, heaters, dish-washers, television sets, and
air conditioners. The market for electronics ap
plications is also very far from saturated. Engin
eers will be turning out a never-ending array of
new products, new materials, and still-undream
ed-of gadgets.
WANTED: SALES EXPERTS
Young men and women should note that there
will be excellent job chances for those interested
in surveying, researching, analyzing, and moti
vating human wants. College freshmen should
now look toward 1967. They should recognise the
fact that there will be a still insatiable

Martinet
In the Utter part of the 17th century, the French
army began to replace its soldiers of fortune—hired
fighting men—with raw, recruits;
With this change came the introduction of a uniform
system of drill and discipline.
The man picked ty institute this system was Jean
Martinet, a lieutenant colonel. Martinet did his job well,
and in a few years the thoroughly drilled French Army
was recognized as the best in Europe.
However, there were many who looked upon Mar-
tint’s system as too severe. These critics coined a
word by referring scornfully to any overly strict disci
plinarian as a “martinet.”
Education Will Give Yon
Greater Job Security
Education qualifies you for more opportunities for full-time
work and reduces the chances of long periods of unemployment.
For example, see how much less unemployment 1959-60 high
school graduates had in comparison with school drop-outs of

News From
The County Agent
M. L. OUTZ, Ceuaty AfoaC
Some cattlemen believe that 75
percent of the cost of feeding a
cow herd is carrying them
through the winter. I believe
this to be about right. What is
the cheapest and how are you
going to get them through with
out buying feed?
I believe good summer pas
tures are essential, They’re Ab
solutely necessary in order to get
cattle through. I believe most of
us will agree they are much
cheaper. Coastal and common
bermuda are good. During this
extreme drought. I’ve noticed
serqcia has stayed greener than
anything eles. Farmers who have
it, like it, C. W. Anderson, Clin
ton, says it’s hard to beat. Paul
Owings of Owings, says it’s the
best plant to have during an ex
treme drought. Both say it is a
good hay plant. However, it’s
a plant that most every one will
agree must be managed pro
perly. Serecia requires a mini
mum amount of fertilizer. It
will furnish a lot of hay for win-1
ter feed. If possible, reserve a
summer pasture to turn cattle
on in late fall. It will shorten the
winter.
Fescue, of course, is our winter
permanent pasture. Too many
farmers get cattle on it in early
fall and when winter arrives, it
is gone.
Where cattle are bred to calve
in January, February, and the
calves are weened in the fall, the
cows go through in much better
shape. The farmer makes more
money. It also requires less la
bor and the herd is easier to
manage.
The annual fall feeder-cattle
sales are scheduled for Sept. 19,
at Greenwood, and Sept. 20, at
Spartanburg.
If you haven’t tried the feeder
sales to market your steers and
heifers, you should. The records
will show the prices to be higher.
