Show DESTITUTE SPOILED BRATS Work, they say, keeps people out of mischief. Perhaps Per-haps this is so. The productivity of the American system certainly seems to have given an excessive number of critics the time and the money to demonstrate against nearly everything that has occurred on the North American Amer-ican continent since the landing of the Mayflower. Statistics are pretty dry things, but a few of them may help explain the extra curricular activities of the flag stompers. For example, one american farmer produces pro-duces enough to feed himself and 42 others. In France, one farm worer can feed about six. The ratio is about five in Italy, and in China, one farm worker produces only .enough for himself and one other person. Last year, the U.S. produced as much in goods and services as all of the U.S.S-R., Japan, West Germany, France and the United Kingdom combined. The population of these countries is 2.5 times that of the United States. Probably at no time has it taken less effort than in the U.S. today to acquire the essentials of individual survival, sur-vival, and many are showing their appreciation by acting . like the spoiled brats of a rich family. Probably they will come to the same end shiftless and destitute. NEDERLAND, TEXAS, REVIEW: "For nearly 30 years, Uncle Sugar up Washington, D.
