Byrnes Sees Fall
Of South America
Newberry, S.C. -JUPil-James
F. Byrnes, former U. S. sec
retary of state, said Sunday
the presence of Russians in
Cuba may make Latin Ameri
ca republics doubt this coun
try's ability to protect them
from Communist enroacii
ment. ".""ley will be subverted
one by one until all of South
America is lost and the Com
munist goal of isolating the
U. S. has been attained," the
former South Carolina gov
ernor, said at commencement
exercises at Newberry Col
lege. Byrnes said he hoped Presi
dent Kennedy "will take
whatever steps are necessary
to force withdrawal of all
Soviet offensive weapons and
combat troops from Cuba."
He said the President can act
with assurance that Ameri
cans will support any action
he takes.

CRANTS TAX RELIEF
Washington - (lIPli - Rep.
Bernard ' F. Grabowskl (D
Conn.) said Sunday he had
prepared a bill to grant tax
relief for expenses incurred
In adoption of children. Gra
bowskl said In a statement it
seemed "unjust" that persons
who adopted children were
denied tax advantages given
to parents for the expenses of
childbirth.
A'virei ncK nave ou-
tained results which suggest
that eight out of 10 nervously
or mentally disturbed persons
can be returned to a useful
life with the new procedure
whicil they call Prefrontal
Sonic Treatment (PST). For
the past nine years, Dr. Lind
strom has been using it as a
substitute for the operation of
prefrontal lobotomy.
First, the surgeon drills out
three 1-inch-in-diameter "but
tons of bone" from the skull.
These are later replHccd like
as many tiny manhole covers.
Through these holes go ultra
sound waves which cause
nerve tracts in the brain to
work more normally. The first
treatment is given under gen
eral anesthesia; later ones are
so nearly painless that they
can be given without anes
thesia. The patient is kept in
the hospital nine days.
As Dr. Llndslrom says, the
favorable reaction of 80 per
cent of these patients is most
remarkable. They are so hap
py when they find their great
anxieties arc gone - they are
amazed and most grateful. So
far, no bad results have been
seen. Relapses have recurred
In 20 per cent of the cases,
but these can be corrected
with another treatment.

DIVIDENDS SOARING
If I were to ask you what group In America is now en
joying the fastest rate of rise in personal income, I'll wager
most of you would say promptly "the wage-earner or salar
ied worker." Some of you who recently have been hit by
heavy medical bills might answer "the doctor or dentist.
Others of you who are paying more rent than you can com
fortably carry might choose "the landlord."
All of your answers would be reasonable and all, wrong.
The group whose rate of income rlse is now dwarfing
those you might reasonably mention is: the U. S. stockholder.
Cash dividend payments on corporation slocks are climb
ing to all-time peaks. In the first five months dividend pay
ments have been way above $5 billion. On June 10, when
General Motors will pay an extra 50 cent "special dividend"
on top of Its regular quarterly dividend of 50 cents, SUM!
million will go to GM stockholders alone. In 1003 dividend
payments are likely to approach $17 billion against l!)tl2's
record high of $15.9 billion which in turn was 6 per cent
above 1961.
In 10B3 America's stockholders are getting s much larger
share of this nation's personal Income than the $12.7 billion
going to all our farmers or the $13.1 billion going to all
our landlords. The 19B3 payout will represent on average nf
$1,000 for each of our country's 17 million shareholders and
while not al! corporations pay dividends and not all share
owners receive dividends, this average does underline the
Importance of dividends in the composition of personal in
come today.
Most startling, though, it the central fact that divi
dends art so rapidly rising a source of perional In
come, for this Is in direct contrail to the trend of the
19S0t. In 1957-58, dividend income actually declined.
Now consider these comparisons.
From January through December 19G2, tolal personal in
come rose 5 per cent and this also was the percentage rise
in wages and salaries. Rental income increased a minor 2 pet
cent. Proprtetor's Income (received by business and profes
sional persons and farmers) rose 4 per cent. ,
In the same period dividend income jumped 9 per cent,
almost twice the rise in tolal personal Income or in wages
and salaries.
Why the spectacular improvement?
A first obvious reason is the upsurge in corporation prof
its. At last official reporting dale in late 19H2, corporate
profits were running at an all-time record of $53.2 billion a
year and the level Is sharply higher now. The Influence of
profits on dividend payments is illustrated by the way pay
ments vary from Industry to Industry. In 1IIU2 the flush auto
industry hiked its dividend payments 19 per cent above HMil
and this year the Chrysler-General Motors moves guarantee
a further hike. At the same time the profit-squeezed steel In
dustry slashed Its dividend payments 5 per cent under llltil
and this year Heel is Just beginning to pull out of its pro
longed slump.
A second obvious reason is corporation confidence In
the economy's future. Even when companies are loaded with
cash, they don't pay extra dividends unless thrv anticinate
a continued high level of profits. In the first four months of j
1963, 487 companies boosted their dividends, H3 more than!
in me comparable period of 1962.
A third tiltlly significant factor was the Treas
ury's liberalisation In 1962 of the rules governing
corporation depreciation which permits companies
to deduct larger sums from their pre-tax income to
write down investments in plants and equipment. As
result, companies need not depend to much on their
after-tax income to iinanca plant expansion and mod
ernisation and they have a bigger portion of after
tax Income left to distribute to there ttockholderi.
To emphasize how significant this is, in late 1962 almost
two-thirds of after-tax prolila were paid to stockholders in
comparison with an average of only 54 per cent in 1950-61.
Many companies don't pay any dividends, attract stock
holders by promises of long-term growth. But more than
1,000 companies have paid regular dividends on their com
mon stocks for 25 years or longer. Of corporations listed on
the New York Stock Exchange, 514 have paid cash dividends
In each year for 25 years or more.
(P. S. Another group enjoying a steep rale of rise tn
' personal Income it the receiver of interest. "Capitalism" Is
certainly still vibrantly alive in these United States )

rible pain caused by a cancer,
showed no brain damage had
resulted from the procedure.
Most of the nervous pa
tients treated were seriously
ill persons who had been liv
ing on tranquilizers and bar
biturates. Some 57 per cent
had received shock treat
ments; 11 per cent had at
tempted suicide; and 28 per
cent were in danger of com
mitting suicide.
The symp'oms that respond
most favorably to this treat
ment are these: anxiety, de
pression, obsessions and com
pulsions to do silly things,
phobias (unreasoning fears),
hypochondriasis (a conviction
that the person has some ter
rible illness), some drug addic
tions and some cases of alco
holism, many schizophrenias,
and many severe neuroses.
Persons not helped were
neurotic persons with person
ality disorders, character de
fects, negativism (refusal to
do necessary acts), certain al
coholics, and poranoiacs (peo
ple who think enemies are
threatening them).
The outlook is not hopeful
in the use of this method
when the patient never was
nervously well, and it is bad
when ufter the operation the
person has to go back Into a
bad environment.
It looks as if a great step
forward has been taken in

of now greatly disturbed and
utterly miserable persons.

There arc now between 75

to get the address of the near

Percy L. Douglas, the presi
dent of the organization, says
that during the last year they
received more Ihun 1,100 eyes,
which Is a record. This num
ber will doubtless keep in
creasing. The essential point is that
a DetBon does not "will" his
eyes, because a will may lake I

is to tell the nearest of kin

the question of
whether A m-
VMai I are vetims of
laaaV ael a c o nspiracy
wot to keep them
"trapped in endless and empty
housewifery."
In a recent debate before
the Women's National Press
Club here, a strong case for
the affirmative was presented
by Mrs. Betty Friedan, author
of a new book entitled "The
Feminine Mystique."
What I regard as an equally
strong case for the negative

Fine Arts have entered a
competition in which they
must carve sculptures from
40-pound blocks of rindless
cheese.
was made by Robert Stein, fed
itor of Redbook Magazine, and
one of the targets of Mrs.
Friedan's attack.
It was the balanced weight
of the two arguments that
I found disturbing. If this
ends in a tie. the sink it go
ing to get awfully full.
As I understand Mrs. Frie
dan, she passionately believes
that women should not have
a choice between homemaking
and a career. They should
have both. '
Mrs. Friedan charged that
women's magazines, such as
the one edited by Stein, are
trying to sell the ladies a bill
of goods on staying at home
to empty the ashtrays rather
than working a 9-to-5 shift at
the poolhall.
Or, as she put it, "taking a
full and equal place in so
ciety." Stein said that wasn't so.
He agreed "it's wrong to try
to convince every woman
that she will find fulfillment
in having babies and baking
bread."
But he said, "it's equally
wrong to try to convince
every woman that she will
find fulfillment in practicing
a profession or pursuing a ca
reer.
All of this started me to
wondering why it is that
tuch discussions always in
volved the woman't place
in borne vertus career.
Doesn't anyone ever worry
over whether a man can suc
cessfully mix marriage with a
career.
In all my life I have never
heard of a man giving up a
Job to get married. Oftentimes
the opposite is true.
The magazines seem to
take it for granted that men
are capable of holding down a
job without interference with
their roles as husbands and
fathers.
We men may foster this
illusion to keep from having
to do the dishes, but down
deep in our hearts we know
it isn't true.
I myself probably would ba

today were it not for the fact
that I chose to devote myself
to my family instead.
I am not sorry I did it. I'm
not complaining one bit. I
just think the magazines
should be more understand
