Small Worlds
Around Us
By LYNN M. W ATKINS
(Reaistar and THbuna
Syndicate 1962)
Lost Sheep Almost Sum
To Work at Galling Lost
It's easy to understand why
the expression "Utile lost
snerp" is so poignantly sym
bolic of abject forlornncss
and hnpless bewilderment.
One of the easiest actions
sheep accomplishes is the "get
Inst." He even seems to work
al it and very successfully.
"Having the wool pulled over
lis eyes" would appear to be
a condition inherent in these
animals.
Like anls, termites or
honey bees, the sheep Is real
ly a snrial animal. As long
us It is a member of a flock,
either large or small, it is
reasnniiblv content. Bui, by
lis own blundering Inatten
tion to the presence of others,
II is pretty apt to wander
away from the group, and Is
immediately in deep trouble.
Being naturally short
sighted and characteristically
thoughtless. It will get lost
and remain lost even when
the flock, of which It wants
desperately to he a member,
is actually within sight. It
will stand Mid h-a-a-ah piti
fully, instead of trying to re
join the others or returning
to the sheep-fold,
Neod Guarding
Kcraiise they can and do
necnine so frequently lost and
so blind in only following in
stead of leading, most folks
i hum Hie sheep is very stu
pid. Inn dumb, in fact, even
tn survive unless constantly
guarded and protected.
'l'lii' sheep lives up to this
following his own foggy im
pulses. This rather dumb Inclina
tlonal ways to be a blind fol
lower rather than a leader
gets the individual sheep in
all kinds of trouble; trouble
becomes almost a way of life.
Even as a group, a flock of
sheep will mill around near
a hole In a fence, each one
waiting for one of the others
to be the first to go through.
Finally one will take the ini
tiative and dash Into the open
ing. Then regardless of what
happens to be on the other
side, all the flock will dash
in as though tickled to death
the decision wns made.
Deep Trouble
If one of the tHrdy ones
happens to miss the opening,
which one or more usually
will, then he Is In deep trou
ble. He becomes hopelessly
lost, confused and hewildered.
This, loo, would seem the
normal state of affairs.
It's really a little palhellc
how a flock of sheep will fol
low a hellweather, usually a
male sheep wearing a hell,
into any place - even the
slaughter pen. This example
of implicit faith and misplaced
trust makes the driving ol
sheep an easy task, but it dnc
not speak very highly of the
animal's Intelligence. It might
better he "lost."
And, sadly enough, a lost
sheep remains Inst; it will
hardly make a reasonable ef
fort to gel "un-lost," Perhaps,
after nil, the sheep really Isn't
so dumb as it acts. It may be
weeks ago one of our great
weekly organs of public opin
ion stated flatly that about all
the President had been able
to get through Congress had
been appropriations for state
and defense."
Salinger said that by the
time Congress adjourns it
will have passed almost 70
per cent of the President's re
quested legislation.
He said accomplishments of
Congress included the first
major housing bill in 11 years,
the trade bill, establishment
of the Peace Corps, authoriza
tion of the Alliance for Prog
ress, passage of the United
Nations bond issue and cre
ation of the communications
satellite corporation.
Few Blamed It
Referring to the "myth of
the anti-business administra
tion." Salinger said that "even
at the height of all the stories
about how the administration
was abusing business, a Gallup
poll showed that only IB per
cent of businessmen them
selves believed it."
"President Ken nedy," he I
said, "believes that a healthy
climate for business is good
for the entire country. We
have allempted to create that
climate "
Salinger said that "perhaps
the press is getting too sensi
tive for its own good."
"The press is a powerful
and great enough institution
tn withstand criticism," he
said. "So is the Presidency.
We can both live with con
structive criticism without
sensitivity. But let us not he
afraid to talk back to each
oilier."
Salinger was introduced by
UPI While House Reporter
Merriman Smith.

ALL 1963 OLDSMOBILES F-85 models have been designed with more the look of an
Oldsmobile. more impressive looking cars, immediately identifiable as members of the Olds
mobile product family. They are now on display at J. R. Whitney Oldsmobile. The F-85
Deluxe Sedan, ihown above, typifies the crisp, youthful styling theme. Actual overall
length of the new F-85 has been increased only 4 inches while the maneuverability of
its 112-inch wheelbase has been retained. In addition to their important styling changes,
all F-85 models for 1963 feature numerous mechanical improvements for economy of
maintenance, increased comfort and safety, belter handling apd smoother, quieter opera
