SOME POINTERS
FOR 1951
Mrs. Adams Dies
Alter Long lUness
By Lou Schneider In The
Anderson Independent
Every year, at this time, the
nation’s top-notch bankers and
businessmen flood your reporter
with new year forecasts. More
than 100 are in hand.
Each speaks authoritatively,
builishly, but carries an escape
paragraph should something go
wrong. But one particularly
stands out as a bright light; the
most sensible of all.
National Association of Credit
Men’s executive manager Henry
H. Heimann wrote the best 1951
forecast. It is direct; most in
formative; and covers every sub
ject concisely. Here it is, in
full:
“The new year calls for great
sacrifices that will be cheerfully
made in the interests of a strong
er America and more peaceful
world.
“However, the sacrifices and
controls will be resented if color
ed by politics, or used for social
experiments not contributing to
the intended objectives.
“Labor will be in short supply.
Despite efforts to control infla
tion, wages will rise in dollars.
Dollar buying power will de
teriorate further. The decline
need not be drastic.
“Taxes may increase to the
point where they may destroy in
centive. A war situation, how
ever, would boom per capita
production.
“Business earnings have passed
their peak.
“Agriculture will stimulate pro
duction through heavier plantings
and better farming. The income
Of th* farmer will be maintained
at % MHUMfYeL
“Interest rates will rise, though
not sharply.
“Construction of new homes
will decline rather drastically.
“Automobile production will be
curtailed.
“The cost of living will con-
tinue to rise.
more controls, and
ISwem x&vehtories.
Watch particularly shoddy or
synthetic inventories. Poor qual
ity products will be a drug on
the market after the defense pro
gram is completed.
“Keep all equipment in excel
lent shape. Be more cautious
alxmt plant expansion, irrespec
tive oplhe tax amortization law.
Overhead will be an important
V factor later on. Do all possible
to keep It down.
“Be sure to anticipate increas
ed taxes not only In the year's
‘ balance sheet because of any re
troactive feature but in its im
pact on operating cash position.
“Maintain a strong sales and
credit department. These will be
badly needed later on.
“Continue to improsve products
and services.
“Don't make the mistake of
selling only to gilt-edge credit
risks. Develop better credit
; worthiness with marginal custo
mers through guidance, sound
counsel and advice. Marginal
customers today may mean the
difference between a profit and
v loss tomorrow.
“Fanning soil should be im-
proved. This is the time to do it.
The day of subsidy may soon
come to an end. Modernize farms.
*|pj£eep equipment in top shape.
Continue diversification to avoid
V feast and famine program.
- “Make farms so attractive that
* children will want to stay at
home. ’ They will be needed on
the farms, and will be indepen
dent in their own right as farm-
;f|? era. ...
“Land values are high. Don’t
‘/ •peculate at this point in land
" values.
. Labor should do a good day’s
work. It will help check infla-
f. tion, and make everybody hap-
; ’ pier. Labor helped give America
its high standard of living. That
good work should continue. The
dividends are higher wages.
' “Union members should take
>v an active part in the union’s af-
* fairs, and never forget that they
and their fellow workers are the
union.
V - “Woikers must realize that
they suffer from inflation. It
doesn't do any good to get a fat
pay check that buys less and less
of what a family needs.
v ‘ “Folks should not allow the
politicians to spend the money
they pay in taxes. They earnejl
. it. All should insist on how the
funds should be spent.
“Every year there is an elec
tion. The right to vote is scared.
Fplks should cherish It. Vote at
every election whether it be a.
local municipal matter, club or '

PARR JERSEY IS RATED
AS TESTED DAM
A South Carolina registered
Jersey cow has been rated as a
Tested Dam by the American Jer
sey Cattle Club. The distinction
was awarded Blonde Bright
Nancy for having three offspring
with official production records.
She is owned by James N. Parr
of Newberry.
The cow’s progeny averaged 8,-
485 pounds milk and 499 pounds
butterfat on twice daily milking
mature equivalent basis. The
tests were checked by the Clem-
son Agricultural College and The
American Jersey Cattle Club.
Parr’s cow also has been classi
fied for breed type. She was
rated Good Plus, equal to a
score of SO 1 to 85 points on the
bt-eert’s score card which gives
100 points for a perfect animal.
The production testing and
rype classification work carried
on by The American Cattle Club
to make possible the continuous
improvement of the Jersey breed.
The Club's national headquarters
is in Columbus, Ohio.

Dr. Patte has selected fourteen
choral pieces that truly repre

music of the various branches of
Christendom. We note, in the
group of unusual pieces, a sub

by Palestrina, also an impress
ively flowing organ-like Russian
anthem, as sung in the Kiev Mon

version found in the Genevan
Psalter of 1562, as it was then
interperted in Geneva’s St. Peter
Cathedral, under John Calvin,
during the early Reformation.
Among the Negro Spiritual
that are part of the program, the
conductor has chosen four com
positions that typify the various
moods of the native and genuine
faith of the Negro. One of these
spirituals, “Didn't my Lord de
liver Danile,’’ very rarely given
in concert programs and intense
ly soul-stirring, is a genuine ex
ample of the old Plantation songs.
The whole program, centered
around the Lord’s Prayer, is
both a musical event and a spirit

Among the twenty-eight per
formers, let us mention Sidney

Slash Seen In
Home Building
WASHINGTON, Jan. 1— The
National Production Authority es
timated today that home builders
will slash output 50 percent this
year with construction totaling
about 600,000 new apartments
and houses.
The government’s housing goal
for 1951 is 850,000 units. But the
NPA report tended to discount
the possibility that this figure
ill be reached, although the!
’arget has not been officially
.'hanged.
NAP drew up its estimates on
the basis of consultations with re
presentatives of the construction
and building materials Industries.
It said the report does not con
stitute an official forecast
With this In mind, the agency
declared that “one fourth less pri
vate construction. work can be ex
pected in 1951.” . .
It explained that while home
building may be halved in the
new year defense and industrial
construction, will tend to bolster
building activities during the next
12 months. ,
Approximately 15 billion, 20
million dollars worth of private
ly-financed construction is anti
cipated as compared with 20 bil
lion, 490 million estimated to
have been completed in 1960.
The report noted that public
ly-financed outlays may increase
970 million dollars to a level of
seven billion, 480 millions, as re
sult of defense housing and other
military construction.
During the year, NPA said
builders hope to start new hous
ing units worth five billion 600
mlllons as compared with 11 bil
lion 276 miRiohs In the record
I960 year.
