But to make them a reality will require individual incentive and the possibility of reward. Typical of the gap between fancy and reality is the treatment accorded basic industries, such as coal, by the more "advanced students of school. the "progress-is-automatThey describe the common mans elegant dwelling of ten years hence with a super-efficieheating unit. They then advocate government planning which would destroy competition and opportunity in the coal industry. They propose rewhich strictions and regulations would remove profit from the coal business and put an unimaginative, socialistic government in control. Fortunately, the coal industry believes that the innate good sense of the American people will prevent this calamity from happening. It is proceeding with a development program that includes more efficient heating devices, as well as scores of other improvements and innovations in the use of coal. It is being urged forward by the stimulus oif competition and hope of profit that has always spurred Ameircan business men. The country cannot detroy such impelling forces without destroying progress. Remember this, Mr. and Mrs. America, if you want your dreams.of better living to come true. ic nt THE ROAD BACK One of the biggest threats to private enterprsie after the war is the tremendous amount oif money the Federal government now has invested in all kinds of business, as a war measure some $20,000,000,-000- . When the war emergency is over, the postwar employment emergency will be used as an argument to keep the government in business. Hence, planning by private enterprise, such as is being done by the American Road Biulders Association, to provide peacetime jobs, is of the utmost importance. Highway construction is important at any time, but after the war it will be doubly so. Like all transportation facilities, roads are being pounded to pieces by war traffic, many of them are not being repaired, and badly 'needed new construction has beerf postponed. Highway expenditures in 1930 amounted to pearly & billion and a half dollars. T943, they dropped to but $300,000,000 and in 1944 to about $150,000,000. As upwards of 7,000,000 jobs depend on good highways in normal times, it is easy to see how important road construction and maintenance will be in any postwar planning to put American business back on a sound, self supporting basis. WHAT WILL THE END BE?' I second class mail matter When Hungry Writing in the Saturday Evening Post of April 15, Ed Will, the operator of a small farm near Odessa, EAT at New York, shows how the grip of bureaucracy is tightening on the farmer. A subsidy which independent farmers do not want, is forced on them to offset the cost of feed which the price oif milk is not allowed to cover. It has grown from pin money of the dairymans into one-fift- h come, thus making him dependent on political handouts. The inevitable conclusion to be drawn from Mr. Wills article is that the farm subsidy is a political ex-- ( edient to hold the price of food be-oits production cost, at the expense of the taxpayer, at a time when the consumer is best able to pay the true cost of food.
