If not, why not? We have the money, or can levy a very small tax to raise a hundred million dollars. What’s a mere triffle, eh ? Even so. We are looking every day for something that will cost a few hundred millions or a few billions. Let’s not be cheap; let us use Vietnam as a measure of our prodigality and show the world just what ! we can do. We' are no pikers; when we spend we spend in a big way, a gesture of ours to bewilder mankind. Henry Auton rites today Henry K.

We have some problems here at home; some perplexities; some confusing entanglements. But we are sending expeditions to the moon, said to be two hundred thousand miles away. If we succeed in pitching a tent on the moon shall we then pre pare expeditions to the sun? It is only 90 million miles. Who knows the sun might solve the heat problem. We Americans dream fabul ously and fantastically. We pre pare to fill the pockets of the poor while drying up and stif ling business which produces the money we throw away. “A man’s a man for a ’that,” says the poet, but what kind of man will he be when the theo retical politicians put him on the moon? When we bring to a conclu sion the spending of billions in Vietnam and the loss of thous ands of men we shall not be tranquil because just ahead lies China with 700 million peo ple. We must either feed them or fight them—so what? Could we find helpful employ ment developing our Nation, taking Canada and Mexico in our stride ? I wonder. As Tennyson says, as I re call, “So runs my dream but what am I? An infant crying in the night. On infant crying for the light, And with no language but a cry.” In all the confusion of plans to uplift the world who are those of sober, thoughtful mind who wrestle with such prob lems ? Our nation is swallowing the States; the States are absorb ing the Counties; and the Coun ties are encroaching on the municipalities. Just where are we, the great grandsons of the ragged continentals who drove the British out? We fought about a little tax ation, a mere pittance, but our various governments, notably the Federal government, impose and collect more taxes in one month than the British collected from us in all the years pre ceding the Revolution. All this is the price of liberty, for the Revolution was a revolt in the name of liberty. We live in a splendiferous age, a time when we readily incur debts for comforts. We must have so much, of tentimes the frills of life in a vain search for the thrills of life. We used to say that a man was happy not in the abundance of things he possessed, but be cause he had a tranquil mind, a calm spirit. All that is in the remote past, a mere recollection of the simplicity of antiquity. Yes, verily, we live in an age of do-ers, not even-temper ed people happy in the endur ing qualities of the spirit ra ther than the possession of ev ery gim-crack that can be de vised. I have not heard, but I won der whether the President en trusted a hundred million dol- “Believe it or not, more than six per cent of America’s stock holders are children. According to the New York Stock Ex change, 20 million Americans own stock in corporations. One million, 280 thousand of these are minors. This is nearly trip- pie the number of minors who held stock in 1962, and six times the total for 1955. It seems that across the country, school children are learning to distinguiish the ‘bulls’ from the ‘bears’ as a part of classroom studies. In some schools stu dents work with stock market tables, figuring dividends as part of their mathematics cour ses. In other schools they invest in a share or two and follow its progress. They investigate of ferings, read reports and anal yze financial news. In many cases the youngsters receive gifts of stock from parents or doting grandparents. But in other cases they buy it out of their own savings. The South Carolina Electric and Gas Co. highly approves of all this. In a nation where the economy is geared to free enterprise, ev eryone should know what makes it tick. South Carolina Electric and Gas hopes that you know that it is an investor owned company—hence a tax-paying company.” YORK RITE BODY TO CONFER DEGREES York Rite Body, Oriental Council No. 17 of Newberry, will confer degrees on six can- diates next Monday at the Ma sonic Hall on Boyce street.
