This Christmas season should see an all-time peak, and the prospects for 1956 look exceptionally gtxxl. Leisure hours are on the increase. In another generation the work week will be shortened to the point that a 30-hour week, and a three or four day hol iday will I k - commonplace. Illness and sickness is being overcome. A report on the Salk vaccine shows the wonders that that drug has made in curbing the dread Polio. Other drugs and other medicines are eliminating and checking other ills. A real war scare isn’t hovering over our every move. Of course, it will pay to I k vigilent, but the fact is that for the first time since the middle 30’s, the actual prospects for peace look good.

In every magazine picked up, in every newspaper, in movies and on T-V we see glowing reports on the ushering in of the “Golden Age.” The nation’s airlines have purchased millions of dollars worth of airliners, and in a few years each of you will be able to travel to Hawaii or New York in a few hours. Automobile prrxluction is at an all-time high. Over 6,600,000 vehicles were produced in this country in 1954, and 1955 will surely see that figure raised. People buy a new car now with the same ease as buying a new suit a few short years ago. Home building, anti commercial building is at an all-time high. Millions of people are lookng for ward to having their own home built, only a generation or so ago tins was a project for the rich only. If building maintains its phenomenal pace, then M rs.
