Unfortu nately the desire for more rapid growth and the realization of that desire are quite different matters. Among the reasons for wanting more rapid growth are that it would help us before the rest of the world, that Russia is growing more rapidly than we are, and that, if we are to take care of our projected population growth and continue to improve our standard of living, we .have to step-u- p cur output per capita, as well as in the aggregate. Each of these three reasons deserves careful consideraton. y coun-trycom- es P-T- pre-scho- ol lli rttt Hy-Cr- L fev . yu y: f. ; v i ' v, X v 'Ss l ' ' II fid ..? i I' 1 V t ' c.;.4,:4 M t .

A crucial stage is imminent in of concressional consideration "welfare" legislation which would push the nation a considerable distance down the socialistic trail. Included in the list of measures to be seriously considered by the House Ways and Means Commit- tee is the industry-oppose- d bill for free by Rep. Forand hospital, nursing home and surgical care for aged persons eligible for social security retirement benefits. This measure is assailed by opponents as a proposal which could lead to federal bureaucratic control of every aspect of people's lives. Committee approval of the measure would remove one of the major hurdles to enactment. Interest in the Forand bill which is one of the major legislative goal of the AFL-CI- O has increased materially in recent days. One of the reasons obviously is the fact that this is an election year. It is well known that Congress usually has "sweetened" social security benefits every two years just before the national elections. contend, however, Opponents that the egislation should be considered on its merits and not on the basis of political considerations.

Plans already are under way for meeting the major needs by and whatever private efforts assistance is necessary should be provided by states and communities. 2. Enactment of the Forand or stop bill would impede these voluntary efforts if the people back home were led to believe that generous "Uncle Sam" would come to the rescue. 3. The Forand Bill would not solve the problem, since three out of every four recipients of old age assistance do not receive old age and survivors benefits under the social security system. The Forand bill applies only to those eligible for social security. 4. Cost of the Forand bill might be $2 billion annually at the and increase to present time $7.5 billion by 19S0. This would be highly inflationary. It would be financed by increasing present social security taxes from three to three and per cent on both employees and employers. Opposition to the measure is spearheaded by the American Medical Association, which believes that voluntary health plans can do the job. Government Economy Victory Members of the congressional economy bloc were delighted by the House action sustaining President Eisenhower's veto of the $900 million water pollution bill. They hope that this establishes a precedent for this session of congress for rejecting proposals for unnecessary federal spending and for infringing on States' rights. The vetoed measures would have authorized an increase from $500 million to $900 million in federal grants to municipalities one-four- th . v: 7 7tT 'y-fJfrW'-- 'ONLY 7 FEET is height of this classic jump by Boston York meet.

"Population Explosion" We are in the midst of what has been termed a population explosion. At present there are 180 million persons in this counJ try. According to the estimate of the Department of Labor this , number will grow to 208 million by 1&70. This is a 15 per cent increase. The labor force, however, will grow during this decade by nearly 20 per cent. To -' provide jobs for all of these while increasing our workers, standard of living, is a fantastic job. It can be done, of course. In I "'t ? fact it has to be done. But it is not going to be an easy task. Is there any way to "force" a country to grow, or grow more ' rapidly. The answer to this has ; to be "no" unless one is willing to destroy all personal freedom. And even by the destruction of ' ! freedom it is not possible to maintain a high rate of growth indefinitely. It is somewhat com" parable to the pressure and di T-- A rection found during a war.
