Show TIIE HORSE AND BUGGY FRA WON'T TAKE BADNESS OUT OF BIGNESS Twice recently prominent Americans have dwelt on the question whether great size in business brings us too many social evils.

We wonder if that really is the inescap-- 1 able price of bigness. Some monster corporations are managed in a way that seems to refute the Douglas "argument. A big automobile maker with geographically scattered plants gives the various plant managers a high degree of independent authority.

Secretary Acheson got back from Paris, he expressed his thanks to Vies President Barkley for hli help at the foreign ministers' conference. Barkley was mystified. It was news to him that he had been helping. Acheson then explained. At the start of the Paris conference, the atmoa-- l phere was cold. Finally Acheson invited Foreign Minister Vishlnsky to dinner. But even after J cocktails the guests were aloof. So th secretary of state decided to mellow the foreign minister of Russia with some of Alben Barkleys famous stories. As a result Vishlnsky was almost In tears. Even I the Interpreter had a hard time keeping a straight face. Acheson told every Barkley Joke he could remember, and after th dinner was over, Vishlnsky put on arm arouna Achesons shoulder and re- marked: I may not win anything negotiating with you, , J but it Is certainly a pleasure to visit with you." ' Barkleys Lates- tOn of Barkley's latest stories is about a Kentucky friend who helped him get elected to the house of representatives a quarter of a century ago. After th election the friend cam around to tell him: I want you to know that I sweat, bled and almost died for you. There isnt anything I wouldnt do for you, and all I want Is for you to be a great congressman." A few years later Barkley was elected to th senate. Again his friend came to see him, and said: I want you to know that I sweat, bled and almost died for you and I know you are going to be a great senator. There Isnt anything else I v ant from you. Finally, when Barkley was elected vice president of the United States, his friend came back and this time he slad: When you were elected to the house of representatives, I did my best to help you. When you were elected to the senate, I went down the line for you again. I also sweat, bled and almost died to make you vice president Now I want you to do something for me. - What Is it?" asked Barkley, worried. Help me take out my citizenship papers."
