Individuals Will
Determine Future
Business Trends
"The future of America and
business is going to be lie
termined by individual citi
zens who seriously ponder the
question: 'What kind of Amer
ica do I want?' "
So maintained Robert W.
Jackson, San Francisco, in a
talk before Medford Kiwanis
club yesterday at its noon
luncheon meeting. Jackson is
western region manager of
public relations for General
Electric company.
There is so little under
standing of what prosperous
business means to a commu
nity, Jackson said in address
ing Kiwanians at Rogue Val
ley Country club.
He spoke of public apathy
and complacency in business
men and said that it affects
the entire business climate.
Jackson brought out the need
for honest grass roots politi
cal action on the part of every
responsible citizen.
Misunderstanding
The speaker pointed to
great misunderstanding of the
conflicts of interest. He said
it is not so much conflicts of

interest as it is sheer blind
ignorance of real self-interest.
Jackson remarked that people
should understand their own
enlightened self-interest.
"Look closely at the great
problems of our times - indus
trial strife, inflation, social
istic political experiments,
communist imperialism - and
you'll find the people involv
ed are confused and ignorant
of exactly how those prob
lems relate to their own self-
interest," Jackson said.
On the issues of industrial
strife he spoke of common
interests which should inspire
cooperation. Jackson reviewed
the issues of competition, prof
its, employees pay, automa
tion, inflation and big taxes
and big government.
"Competition-If a business
can't compete, what is there
for employees or investors.
In their own self-interest, em
ployees should insist that man
agement do everything neces
sary to protect jobs by elimi
nating inefficiency and waste.
Profitable Companies
"Profits - Profitable com
panies are the ones with ex
panding, secure and better
paid employment.
"Pay - Almost 70 cents out
of every dollar in the national
income represents pay and
benefits for workers. It cer
tainly is to nobody's advan
tage if pay is so high that it
threatens the survival of the
business because it can't meet
competition.
"Automation - Any compa
ny that doesn't take advan
tage of technical progress as
fast as it should will soon
wither away, and that, of
course, means no jobs. Our
huge population gains means
workers must have the tools
and incentive to produce far
more efficiently in order to
maintain and increase our
standard of living.
Wage Increases
"Inflation-If wage increas
es exceed productivity in
creases, inflation and the de
struction of values are inevi
table."
The idea of business paying
all the taxes is a false one,
Jackson told Kiwanians.
"Only people pay taxes," he
pointed out. He mentioned the
"soak the rich" ideas put
forth by politicians as a lot
of baloney." Business collects
the taxes and passes them on
to the consumer as higher
prices, Jackson said.
The speaker called for en
lightened, intelligent self-interest
and declared that the
businessman must consider
the common interest, includ
ing the employee and the con
sumer.
Jackson deplored "the
something for nothing" atti
tude, college students looking
for soft jobs, the tendency to
look to the government as the
great provider and the shift
of responsibility from the
state to the federal govern
ment. He charged that "the
socialists, demagogues and
welfare boys are running
away" with the good qualities
of America.
'Killing the Goose'
By undermining business,
"worst of all we are killing
the goose that is laying gold
en eggs," Jackson empha
sized.
Jackson called upon busi
nessmen to speak out loudly
and clearly on the value of
productivity and sales and on
how social issues affect em
ployees and the community
at large. He told of the need
to present economic facts to
off-balance other propaganda
and of the need to communi
cate with employees and elect
ed representatives of the peo
ple. Need for widespread public
dispersion of factual knowl
edge and the methods of rea
son is seen by Jackson, who
maintains that there is no
substitute for sound educa
tion and a lot of serious study
In order that citizens may un
derstand their self-interests.
Reorganization
Committee Argues
Salem - (UPD - The Gover
nor's Advisory committee on
govern m e n t reorganization
departed from its agenda
Thursday and fell Into a de
bate on whether a cabinet
form of government could get
through the Legislature.
Several members, including
former Gov. Robert D.
Holmes, said they doubted it.
Senate President Walter
Pearson (D Portland) dis
agreed with Holmes, saying
the committee "might as well
go all the way, because there
will be a tremendous amount
of opposition anyway."
The committee then pro
ceeded with reorganization

Rita G. - I am a mature
woman and I have always
prided myself on my ability
to get along well with every
one. Therefore, it's terribly
upsetting to be unable to get
along with my own sister-in-law.
My brother recently mar-
died after having been a bach
elor until 38. I was delighted
to see him married and was
prepared to welcome his wife
with open arms.
His wife, Stella, is a Euro
pean who has only been here
about a year. I wanted to do
everything possible to help
her adjust to American life.
I tried to show her how Amer
ican women dress and how
they fix their homes. I tried
to draw her into a nice circle
of young married women and
show her how to entertain.
To my complete surprise, she
resented all this and told my
brother I was annoying her.
I no longer want to see her,
but my husband says I'm
wrong.

Dr. Pauling
Sees That Views
Are Made Public
By LILLIAN LEVY
Washington (Science Serv
ice) - Dr. Linus C. Pauling,
who has attacked the
secrecy of Congressional ex
ecutive hearings, made sure
that his views on nuclear
testing and disarmament
heard in executive session
by the Senate Internal Secur
ity Subcommittee would be
made public.
The 1954 Nobel Price Win
ner, an outspoken advocate of
worldwide nuclear disarma
ment, told Science Service.
"The only way of increasing
our security in the United
States is by means of carefully
formulated agreements lead
ing to world disarmament."
Dr. Pauling warned that de
lay in reaching such agree
ment increases our chances
"of being destroyed along
with the Russians.
Dr. Pauling indicated his
complete willingness to tell
his views to the subcommit
tee, but he has asked commit
tee vice-chairman Sen. Thom
as J. Dodd (D-Conn.) that his
testimony be presented in
open session.
The world-famous chemist
noted that Sen. Dodd recent
ly spoke against present ne
gotiations at Geneva aimed
at an East-West agreement on
nuclear disarmament. "Ap
parently," said Dr. Pauling,
'Sen. Dodd is against our
government's policy.
It may be that in issuing
a subpoena to me, the commit
tee is trying to suppress peo
ple like myself who strongly
and openly support our gov
ernment's efforts at Geneva."
The scientist said he hopes
the subcommittee will consid
er the consequences of Red
China soon becoming a nu
clear power.
'I said last year that I
thought Red China was close
to becoming an atomic power,
that she has the ability to be
gin nuclear testing by 1961.
If we do nothing to include
Red China in disarmament ne
gotiations before she explodes
the bomb, he predicted, "ne
gotiations leading to an agree
ment will be more difficult.
We had better begin to be sen
sible or we will cease to
exist."
The subpoena, issued by
subcommittee chairman, Sen.
James O. Eastland (D-Miss),
asked Dr. Pauling to testify
on Communist efforts and
propaganda against nuclear
testing.
feud over this. I know Rita
and I know she's going to be
miserable for years over a
thing like this. She is at
tached to her brother and will
miss him if she doesn't see
him - and she can't see him
and Ignore his wife.
I also feci that Rita is silly
to let a young girl like Stella
upset her. Stella is in her mid
20's, but she's very childish.
Just the fact that she went
crying to her husband that
Rita was bothering her proves
what a youngster she is. She
is irresponsible.
I have been trying to per
suade Rita to be big about
this thing and go to Stella and
apologize for any offense. Aft
er all, Rita is the more mature
and sensible one and shouldn t
be responsible for creating a
split in the family.
The Council: In general,
Vincent is on the right track.
Undoubtedly Rita meant
well and is therefore taken
aback at having offended, but
she should recognize that she
is a bit insensitive to the feel
ings of others. Stella must
have shown in small ways that
she was not responding to the
help her sister-in-law poured
upon her, but Rita was so en
grossed in what she wanted
to do she didn t even notice
anything was amiss until Stel
la brought things to a head.
Rita also fails to put her
self to the test of placing her
self in her sister-in-law's posi
tion. Although Stella is a Eu
ropean, she undoubtedly feels
she has some understanding
of dress, home management,
entertainment, as well as so
cial skill. These are points of
feminine pride.
As far as Stella is concern
ed, Rita has been trying to
teach her how to be a woman.
She feels she has learned this
from her own mother and
doesn't want another older
woman to place her in a sub
ordinate position by treating
her like a child all over again.
Should Rita apologize? We
don't think this is necessary
or desirable. The offense was
too subtle to require apolo
gies. She would do better to
simply let the whole thing
blow over and bear in mind
that few people like to be
patronized - even for the
sake of vaiuame aavice.
