Under the title of "Work, Auto mation. and the Affluent Society," Dubin spoke on the meaning of work and consumer propensity. He first distinguished the dif ference between mechanization and automation. "Man was an integral part of production i n mechanization, whereas automation excludes man as a part of production,” he explained. The seven fold increase of the gross national product since 1940 is evidence of the social revolu tion in which we arc presently ac tive. "There has been a disengage ment from work under autoina tion,” Dubin maintained. "How ever, this social-psychological dis engagement is not connected to unemployment." He said another phase of this - social revolution is that we have ! become a consumer rather than a j producer oriented society. Dubin j refers to it as the era of consu mer self - interest. Mass produc tion requires mass buying. "There has been a 6.7 increase in disposable income," he stated. The consumer has higher sta I tus now than the producer with the democracitation of market ing. The success of movie actress es and rock and-roll singers is evidence that skills arc no longer of such importance. Yet the consumer is not only from the middle class but also from the working class, he said. "There has been a construed home ownership syndrome by attributing it to only the middle and upper classes," said Dubin. — SDS Sponsors 'Peace Trips' The Students for a Democratic Society at the University are sponsoring a rock and roll dance, “Peace Trip,” Saturday from 7:30 p.m. to midnight in the ballroom of the Student Union, featuring two electronic “rock” groups, the P.H. Phactars and the Weeds, and a psychedelic light show. Tickets for the dance will be on sale at $1.50 each through Fri day at a table on the Student Un ion Terrace and at the New World Coffee House. The expansion of credit has played an important role in ad vancing consumer power. Con sumer installment credit is cur rently $72.6 billion. ‘ We are spending 7/8 of our In comes for ourselves," declared Dubin. Dubin concluded by saying that this affluent society needs con sumers. not producers. He said we are at the beginning of an in ventive period where we are seek ing inventions to increase con sumer benefit as a part of our lives. have your gifts ribboned, wrapped and ready for giving from THE WONDERFUL WORLD OF • MAILING SERVICE • SECRET SERVICE SHOPPER • PARKING AT BACK PATRONIZE YOUR • ADVERTISERS' • AL'S AUTO UPHOLSTERY U OF O STUDENT SPECIAL j 15% Off on all work when you present your student body card 344-2504 1425 Oak SENIORS SENIORS CHOOSING A CAREER?
