Corporations7 Reports Making

By ELMER C. 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.

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

desirability of profits can
hardly be over-emphasized.
"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

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.

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.
