afternoon when the fire wagon
chugged up to the Helton

Thanks to the deeply rooted
aversion of Editor Helton for
putting things away, a garden

front door, where It had been
since May. It made short
work of the flames which
were crackling away at the

Boston, Mass., Nov. 1:5 In spite of hell and high water General

It did not. He flashed his globe

this time.
There is a report here the general may be named ambassador
to Great Britain. He would make

the most popular figures in London today not excepting Churchill.
That, we imagine, is putting

there Is a store across from Boston Common that declares It has
been in business since 1782, and some of the merchandise therein
looked as though it could corroborate the statement!
A largo banner over an inside page of the Boston Globe today
startled us. It read:
"Three hundred and eighty-three Medford boys killed In wcr."
Took us a moment to realize it was the .original Mediord,
Mass., after which our own Medford was named.
The Globe is running a series of three articles on the war
record of Medford, some fighting town apparently. Wonder if it
can equal Medford, Ore., In football?
In the same paper two deaths startled us also, although In
the 00's perhaps the visit of the grim reaper should b taken in
one's stride.

men are more sentimental and
romantic thon women," writes
a San Francisco bachelor. 'They
are exactly right. To most
women what they call love is
just a means of tossing a lasso
around a man and his Income.
That is, the woman's idea is to
make the man fall in love. After
all. if the poor sap wasn't in
love what advantage would It be
for him to marry. On the other
hand, even if a woman is not in
love the advantages she gains by
marrying are numerous. Yes,

should be thankful they are.

dealing with care of such chil

Brides
In the Park Ave. section of
Manhattan there is a highly suc
cessful school of cookery which
gives special attention to young
women about to marry. In the
same section there is a school
for brides. At this school a
bride can learn practically
everything she ought to know
about cooking, housekeeping In
general and entertaining. There
should be such schools every
where. Then when a girl pro
posed to a young fellow he
could, before accepting her ask:
"Hove you a diploma from a
school for brides?"

the same and one or two cities
suffered a decline as compared
with a year ago, but all the
others were not only ahead of
last year, but ahead of the week
before. The increased purchas
ing power In other, cities was
obviously even greater because
the national average was up 19
per cent. .
If anyone wants to worry
legitimately about purchasing
power, it looks as though he
would better worry about it
running too high into inflation,
in view of the shortage of goods
and the delay of the nation in
reaching full production. The
deflation argument has rather
obviously been overstressed to
the point where it has actually
become a misguiding influence
in the economic planning of the
nation.'
'THE high-powered propaganda
organizations -trump up
these economic fictions at times
for legislative or other purposes
without thinking of the conse
quences of their deceptions on
the public.
So also with the general busi
ness index. The graph line has
been running up and down
weekly in a rather dizzy man
ner such as you see presented
in the comic supplements, but it
has been working gradually
lower.
Yet, with all the strikes, de
lays in reconversion and other
setbacks, it is now roughly,
months after the war, only 10
per cent off from the year's war
peak. Certainly it furnishes no
solid ground yet for worries
about depression. Personally I
was amazed to find it as high
as it is.
OF course, no one can know
about the future for certain,
but certain economic elements
are visible to give us a guide for
sound expectations. The decline
should gradually work lower
for a few months until produc
tion gets into swing. Certainly,
with all this purchasing power
In the hands of the people, it
cannot decline beyond that
point.
Here now we have great
purchasing power discernible,
we have a shortage of goods
and we have vast potentialities
of production. To me, these seem
to make the ingredients for a
stable economy at a very high
level for many years to come.
I say many years because these
elements should all be present
for that long a time at least.
It is a well recognized fact that
we cannot possibly produce
everything everyone needs for a
long time.
There are many counter-elements
visible which could break
up these expectations. One Is In
flation. You hear people say
they are afraid it impends.
Actually we are In a condi
tion of price inflation due to
purchasing power which is
really excessive when measured
with the shortage of goods. It
seems then that the soundest
cause for genuine worry is that
the great forces of propaganda
will exert their influences to
increase purchasing power still
further and accentuate the ex
isting inflation, instead of fac
ing the facts and planning ac
cordingly. A well planned economy for
the nation would promote pur
chasing power, boost wages and
otherwise devote itself to in
creasing that influence upon the
economy when needed. Contrac
tion of purchasing power, or at
least stabilization of it, is called
for when Inflation threatens.
A well balanced economic
program would not accept either
alternative of Inflation or de
flation, but would hold tight
rein to the visible economic fac
tors and keep constantly adjust
ing their reins to meet them.

Importance Of
Diversification
The $500 above mentioned
should, however, be divided
among five, or perhaps 10, good
stocks. Looking back over the
forty years during which time
I have invested for clients prob
ably several billion dollars, I
have been greatly, impresseed by
the importance of diversifica
tion. This means that you should
not put all your eggs In one bas
ket.
If you have good dividend
paying stocks, well diversified,
and invest whenever you have
the money, irrespective of mar
ket conditions, you should
average up well in the long run.
In such a case, however, you
should forget all about booms
and panics and not be bothered
about quotations or what your
friends say about the stock mar
ket. Buy stocks for safety and
yield.
How To Diversify
Stock Holdings
The most important feature
of diversification is the proper
distribution of funds between
investments which are fairly
stable in their price action on
the one hand, and those which
historical experience has taught
us will prove volatile in their
price actions on the other hand.
Generally speaking, I advise
working along the lines of re
ducing commitments in the rail
road, coal, automobile, airplane
manufacturing ai.d household
appliance Industries. A careful
scrutiny of the selling prices for
marrv 3tocks leads me to the
conclusion that prices are be
ginning to outrun even the most
optimistic estimates of future
earnings.
What Industries
Look Best Now
In my opinion, the following
industries are favorably situated
and the prices of their stocks
have not generally discounted
prospects:
Railway equipment
Oil
Labor saving machinery
Steel
Copper
Electrical equipment
Variety chains
Chemicals
Casualty insurance
However, it s never wise to
select a group of stocks merely
on Industry prospects. Seem
Ingly adverse developments may
ofttimes help a given industry
For example, if the Full Em
ployment Bill should pass as
originally drawn, the effect of
such spending would be very
stimulating to a number of
lines, including variety and food
chains.'
While the effects of inflation
will be evident everywhere in
1946, I warn against over
optimism. During recent years.
I have continually urged read
ers to maintain a large part of
their assets In common stocks.
Next year many thoughtless
speculators may be attracted to
the stock market, but they may

find they are coming In at the
end of the party. The wise in
vestoi will use periods of over
optimism and high spirit to bat
ton down his hatches and pre
pare for the coming storm.
Proper diversification Is the
first stop in such constructive
program.
