EVERYTHING FOR THE BUILDER Phone 3-4461 By SAM DAWSON . NEW YORK Sometimes man just seems to outsmart him self. The atom bomb is the current example of how he can think up things to solve one problem only to find a host of new ones in the wake. And there are other instances. Take, insects. A few years back, man dreamed up DDT and crowed about having insects licked. They died like flies. All, that is (as he found out later)) but the biggest and hardiest. They didn't die. In stead, they had millions of off spring and these, loo, were the biggest and the hardiest. New and super races of insects could be coming. Sure, man is find ing new insecticides that will clob ber these, too. Or will they? Maybe only the biggest and hardiest of the suoer will be left as breeders. Some worriers fear that some thing similar could be going on in side you. ' Wonder drugs have been the blessing of this century. They ap pear to have routed some of man's worst enemies, such as pneumo nia. But a few doctors fear that the wonder drugs are being relied upon too much that perhaps they are being used so often for the minor ills of man that he may be building up immunity to them. When the real killer strikes, the wonder drug might no longer bave its old whammy. Or look at the auto. A blessing, most allow.' Certainly necessity for many a family. The auto re tired the horse. People got from here to there at ever faster speeds. Miles no longer were obstacles. Now the autos seem to be breed ing like flies, too. Streets and high ways are so clogged with them, that for minutes at i time no one goes anywhere. Often it takes long er to get across today's city in a car than it did in the one-hoss shay. The car spawned Hie iuper highway, one of man's great prides. But no matter how hard the taxpayer seems to strain he can't keep up with Detroit. That city can breed cars faster than the taxpay er can build roads for them. The taxpayers votes more and more school bond Issues. But the schools just don't seem to rise as fast as the kids grow. Pension funds swell, too, and sooial security taxes are going up Frl., Dec. 18, 1953 The News-Review, Roitburg, Ore. 5 next year. But the pensions and: the retirement incomes that looked so rosy when you planned them.i somehow look pretty inadequate! now, if you're trying to live on them. I The nnnillafiim ai-itutv. la .nl American boast but it's mostly it the ends, among the young and the elderly. Those in the middle, pro ductive years find it harder to care for their children, to prepare for retirement. One of man's greatest steps for ward was to think up all the won derful gadgets that take drudgery out of housework. Everyone wants them. In fact, everyone insists upon having them. Providing them makes the new house so expensive that, to keep the price down to something an average husband can afford, build ers make rooms smaller and small er. 1 People feel cramped. And they have more leisure to notice they're cramped. The house can't get any smaller if you want to get all the gadgets in. Without them, builders say, you won't buy. Make the house bigger, thev say, and vou can't buy. All this would be pretty sad, ex ceot for one thing. Everyone gripes about it; But no one almost no one would actual ly be willing to go back to the way things were 50 years ago. Teachers End Strike; Schools Are Reopened GARFIELD, N. J.
