Telephone 24 UNEMPLOYMENT Anyone who has driven on the highways of the country is aware of the fact that they have taken a beating during the last several years and have been denied necessary upkeep. In view of the fact that returning soldiers and cutbacks in manufacturing have created unemployment in certain local of the American areas, Charles M. Upham, director-enginee- r Road Builders' Association, appeals for action to release government funds for road projects now that the war emergency has been relieved, lie says: "We do not claim that highway construction without limitation should start now, but we find an unemployment problem in the number of returning service men and the cancelling of war contracts." Highway construction can be extremely flexible, as new roads are required everywhere. It can be gauged to fit those areas where demobilization and concellation of government contracts develop a local unemployment situation. With few exceptions, materials for highway construction are no longer critical, according to Mr. Upham. He finds no shortage exists for such basic materials as cement, asphalt, tar, crushed stone, sand and gravel. The WI'B has modified its controls over construction machinery and such equipment will soon cease to be a problem. HOW DO THEY REASON? d There is no way to express adequate contempt for advocate and who leaders strike workmen and labor strikes in war production plants today. Such men deserve special punishment in the hereafter possibly the torment of their own souls for shirking in their solemn duty while their brothes and sons die on the battlefields, will be some well-pai- CENTURY OF SOCIALIST DELUSION In the June 24 issue of the New York Times, Frederick A. Hayek, author of "The Road to Serfdom," has a fine article entitled, "Tomorrow's World: Is it Going Left?" Everyone who loves the freedom we have known in the United States, should read that article. The right to be free is something that one must work for constantly. It doesn't survive through public indifference any more than a crop will survive uncontrolled weeds. "The radical parties almost everywhere become parties of pure expediency," says Dr. Hayek, "lacking any clear principles, and for that reason continue to drift toward that totalitarian sociailsm which, at the same time, they are beginning to derad. They have not yet comprehended . . . that it is high time that those who really believe in democracy take a clear stand against those whose very use of the term is sheer mockery." This warning is timely for the United States, where we arc planning a postwar economy that embodies much European state socialism, the evil effects of which have cost the lives of countless thousands of our service men in many nations. We have little time to lose in blocking this false phil, osophy of freedom here at home. In conclusion, Dr. Hayek says: "If Europe does not relax into tyranny and barbarism, but finds its way back to a new development of its great liberal tradition, the century from 1848 to 1948 will probably come to be known as the century of socialist delusion, the century during which, as a result of sheer intellectual error, so much good-wiwas canalized into efforts which very nearly succeeded in destroying the values the people most wanted to preserve. "The world will not go to the left, if believers in individual freedom realize their mistakes. Changes in the popular conception of state socialism are taking place as the plight of the people in such countries becomes known. Many intellectual leaders have become aware of the dangers of an indefinite extension of state control of all aspects of life and are beginning to see that the traditional goals of socialism mav be a threat to individual freedom." ll "Nobody can think straight who does not work, ness warps the mind. Thinking without constructive becomes a disease." Ilenrv Ford. UTAH BOVINE HIGH PRODUCER registered Holstein cow is the nation's third highest Droducine senior in her size group.
