WALZER D UPI Financial Editor - New York - (LTD - Annual reports of corporations are be coming bigger and better to ffj make Ameri- i n formed in vesters in the world, a Wall Street econo mist finds af ter a concen trated study of these docu ments. But R. L. ?Vissmtn, economist of W. E. XLfitton Co., finds there still i lacking an educational pro Ggrm in defense of capitalism h9 profits - a program that coi3d be helped along by in dornjative articles in the an nufl regorts. "2h tnnual report," he 5 "should be an important instrument in molding public opinion merely by a plain statement of facts." Ho quotes the late professor Joseph V. Schumpeter of Har vard 'ho harbored a deep fear that innovation and capi talism were fn danger because of$he unwillingness of the in- 9 dustrial leaders to oppose en-1 insistence on the virtue and croachment, and their half apologetic defense of capital ism and profits. Inadequate Answers Intellectuals who are prone to criticize what they do not understand, are not meeting adequate answers to their abusive accusations, says Weissman.- "The simple test," he sug gests, "is to try and convince professional men such as doc tors, editors, students, house wives, or the mass of em ployees that in manufacturing of all kinds, net profits have been running at a rate of four to five cents on each dollar's sales. "If all profits were re moved, the buyers would be enriched by five cents out of a dollar's outlay." He finds socialization of profits already has proceeded quite far, with taxes on profits even beyond those visualized at the height of new deal experimentation. "In an election year par ticularly," Weissman says, "the need for economic educa tion is great and the urgency of a strong, straight-forward 'Court Records o o o o o JlTN'IClP.iL COURT Alva F.

"One gets the impression in listening to talk that profits are almost immoral to many. "Higher wages, it seems, are to be welcomed - higher profits are to be decried. No Profit, No Investment "Intellectuals seem to for get that neither they nor any one else would make added investments without an added return. "The extreme of the twen ties, when too great a part of the increase in productivity was channeled into profit, was no more unsound than the perils of the sixties of funneling all of the gains of investment into wages." Weissman finds some of the annual reports playing a big ger part in economic educa tion. He praises the Federal Re serve Bank of New York for its discussion of the American economy, and the Federal Re serve Bank of Philadelphia for . its exposition on central banking. He gives a nod of approval to Virginia Electric & Power company for its two-page in sert on "The Price of Liber ty." Du Ponfs report brought out that the average operat- Bomarc Cutback Plan Opposed Washington - (UPD - The Air Force, which announced last week it is drastically curtail ing the Bomarc B air defense missile program, has rejected congressional suggestions it abandon the Bomarc entirely. Closed-door testimony pub lished Tuesday by the House defense appropriations sub committee showed Gen. Thom as D. White, Air Force chief of staff, has "utmost confi dence" , in this anti-aircraft missile. White also pointed to the fact that Canada, with which this country works in a joint defense effort, plans to go ahead with her Bomarc bases. And he said Gen. Lawrence S. Kuter, chief of the North American Defense Command, sharply opposed the planned cutback and could not provide a substitute defense in event the Bomarc were altogether eliminated.

Lent Said to Help Christians Achieve Mastery Over Selves By FR. AID AN M. CARR O. F. M. Cony. St. Anthony On Hudson BABY ABANDONED Found in the vestibule of St. Vincent DePaul Church at Pittsburgh, Pa., four-pound "Patty" was reported doing fine in Ohio Valley, hospital today. The baby was found by Mrs; Mary Masilunas, mother of three, who recognized what others thought the meowing of a kitten as a baby's cry. A nurse is holding the baby, named by nurses for the policeman who brought her to the hospital. -(UPI Telephoto) Rensselaer, N. Y Written for UPI Lent helps Christians to achieve a mastery over them selves; to reaffirm 'men's goal as a child of God and broth er of Christ. In a World that is more concerned about what one has than, about : what one is; that hold out the false promise of happiness through pleasure-the church now in vites all to remember that the state of one's own soul is what really matters and "that true happiness not pleasure is the purpose of human life. It is a - mistake to regard Lenten restraints as somehow intended to rob life of exuber ance, warmth, and vitality. Lent is no killjoy. It is a gen tle if firm invitation to rise to spiritual heights through some slight imitation o f Christ's splendid self-mastery. "Follow me," he whispers to every man, "I am the way, the truth, the life." And in calling us to be like "him in honoring the father,..' he re minds us that self-conquest through mortification is neces sary if we are God's will and not merely our own. Penance brings to all who sincerely accept it a precious chance to reflect, once again, that if we want one way to share Christ's ' glory, w e must now share his cross.
