Business Head Warns Against Talking Ourselves Into Depression By BRUCE BIOSSAT "As a nation we cannot afford to become economic hypochon driacs because a-country, like an Individual, can worry itself sick." This and a lot more talk like It came recently from Charles Luck man, president of Lever Brothers company, the. big soap and food products maker. Always a dynamo, Luckman was whirring at his highest pitch as he outlined for Americans the key reasons they should stop quaking with fear over prospects of a depression. He cited 59.000.000 worker on the Job, $200,000.000 000 in liquid savings and an estimated S21.V 000,000,000 total personal Income tor "It would seem preposterous that anyone could manipulate these figures and come up with an answer that equals disaster," he said. "Yet that is precisely what many Americans are do ing." It's true. And sad and a bit Ironic, too. Not many months ago the big cry was: "Let's halt this dangerous rise in prices." Now we've done it and the resulting downturn has us scared stiff. For a long time we'd been breaking more business records we. too. have shiny pants. Certainly it's foolish for us to sit around expecting the private enterprise system to prove itself to us through thick and thin. It can only work if we make it work. So if we can Just stop trem bling long enough, mavbe we can get the jobs done that will keep the economy going smoothly.
