STANTON All indications point to early imposition of fpdcral wane and price controls. If past experience is to be used to forecast the future, we may anticipate strict and irritating price controls, but very loose and flexible wage controls. Control on prices are popular. Controls on watre are unpopular. Laws and regulations are made by politicians. Politicians are very sensitive to popular opinion. There fore controls on prices, beiti popular, will be firm, while control on wages, being- unpopular, will be largely in token form. H wouldn't do, with a presidential election in the offing, to antagonize organized labov. Our capitalistic system has given this country the great est wealth and the highest standard of living any people ever have known. We are supporting much of the world financially today from the proceeds of our capitalistic economy. These poorer relations, with their socialistic or communistic idealogies, condemn capitalism while enjoying its bounty. Although capitalism has proven its ability to produce wealth and higher standards of living, we find immediate clamor that it be discarded in periods of emergency, and that we substitute the dictatorial policies of federal con trols. '. Displacements resulting from manpower shortages, di version of materials, etc., might in some cases make cer tain controls advisable. Hut such controls, in our opinion, should be as few as possible. The natural balance obtain able from free enterprise and the law of supply and demand should be given every encouragement. Instead, however, whenever opportunity is offered to impose con trols of any sort, advocates of the federal management policy insist on going whole hog: And once control advo cates get their hands on the nation's economy a major operation will be required to pry them loose. We believe we should be extremely cautious in use of I either wage or price controls, keeping regulations to a gy FULTON LEWIS JR. minimum, and giving every encouragement to the free en- . terprise system.

Higher Education." If. however, the legislature puts an extensivebui!ding program into vthe budget, for the coming biennium. together with other demands on tax revenue, there will be no chance to balance the budget without imposing heavy additional taxes. The state treasurer proposes two plans of using exist ing funds. One would be a direct borrowing program, and the other would be substitution by general obligation bonds. He lists among accumulated trust fund surpluses 000,000 in the industrial accident fund, f lfi,000,000 in the segregated accident fund. $29,000,000 in the retirement fund, $10,250,000 in the land board fund, $000,000 in the ca tastrophe fund and $3,000,000 in inactive funds. The state is required to have money on hand to meet obligations arising against nr.'.' "f these funds, but it does seem that some of these surpluses are excessive and that the money might be put to good use. We don't know enough about state financing to say whether Pearson's proposals are or are not practical, but it would seem that the legislature should do all within its power to keep taxes at the lowest possible level.

"Heretofore each season has found the Cross damaged by vandalism, liecesu-tting expensive replacements.
