By DEYYITT MarKE.NZl ANEW and startling viewpoint of Marshal Stalin's amaalng birthday to being discussed editorially by newspapere on both sides of the Atlantic: an angle which to summed up by The New York Herald Tribune under the heading of The Soviet Deifica tion." We are reminded that one frequently hears com munism referred to aa "a religion." meaning that It to a way of Ufa which to calculated to take the place of religion. But let the editorials tell their story. The Herald Tribune aaya In part: "Karl Marx would be more than astonished, he would be atuplttrd If he could witness the scenes today being enacted around one-half the globe In Idolatrous adulation of a creed supposed to be hit and of its principal representative on earth . . . The IconocUat acholar who gruffly announced that 're ligion to the opium of the people' could not have conceived that the unpredictable and unfathomable human spirit would have constructed out of hla own writings, a bare hundred years later, an amaalng parody of all the great religious Ideas, appointing Marx himself as a kind of remote god. with the child of a humble cobbler aa hia son on earth and even with a Lenin to complete the materialistic trinity. "The celebration of DJugashvtli-Stalm's seventieth birthday to surely one of the most amaalng phenom ena of our tunee . . . 'Glory to Stalin' arises In a hosannah from tht brasen throats of the loudspeak ers and the propaganda machines such aa no living man naa ever been accorded. "Why? It to a fascinating and baffling event. In part, perhaps, reflecting the inability of any human society to exist on a plane of pure materialism, without some kind of faith and adoration. But In part It must also reflect the weakness of any politi cal structure balanced on Its apex, forced to shoot or hang Its ablest men because It has no place for them In the slavish conformity which It demands, forced to find mystic or emotional sanctions to Im post an obedience which It can no longer be sure of otherwise from the proconsuls of Its sprawling empire. "The Kremlin haa impressively deified Stalin: but the Impression may not be exactly what waa Intended." SIDE GLANCES TM London Timet also speaks of ' cult of Stalin worship having and the strength of sin 'the communist come near to deification at this stage." The Manchester Guardian. anotner outstanding English newspaper, refers to the "devotional note and says: "The Soviet peoples have less access than most to the normal religions: they have no royal family: they are Insulated from the Hollywood stars and the aupermen of the comic strips. Those feelings of love, worship, gratitude or admiration which In other societies flow along such comparatively non-political channels, find, under communism, no outlet but the figures of the party leaders. It la not surprising, therefore, that this occasion should be so seized on, and Stalin himself could probably do little to pre vent It. "Yet here precisely to the danger. A political sys tem which sets out to make all religions unnecessary can only end by taking many of the features of a religion itself."

Dee. 22 W) A hard eort of dissenters atubbornlv re fuses to go along with the growing view that I960 win see a new tide of inflation meaning rising prices, witn 7our dollar worth lest at the store than It to today. Soma of these seers feel that in flation, if any, wfil be mild. Others say 1950 will Do a carbon copy of 1M. The general price level will decline a little In spite of rises In some commodities. Business will be In a healthy state, but not spec tacularly so. Following This view appears to have a size able following In the stock market. The short interest is shown today to have risen to the highest point since July, 1933. Those who sell short do so tn the belief they can pick up the stock later at prices lower than today's. The dissenters even challenge two of the strongest arguments of those who see Inflation Just around the comer: The treasury's deficit financing, and rising wage scales. They admit that both are inflation ary because they put more money in circulation, but they see offset ting tendencies. , As for the cost of living, they argue that bumper crops and sur pluses, despite government sup ports, will hold food prices in line or a little lower, offsetting rises in rents and in prices of other con sumer goods. Federal Deficit The president thinks the federal deficit this year will be $6 !4 billion. But an economic consultant to in dustry. Dr. Julius Hirsch, says that a federal deficit of two per cent of our gross national product would hardly be strong enough alone to bring about inflation esDeclallv not if our average national produc tivity should rise, as It seems bound to do." mains; productivity means nro- ductng more goods In each man- hour and macoine-hour labor do. lng a little more and having better machines witn which to wort It means lowered production costs and a oreac on rising prices and be comes a strong weapon against inflation. Dr. Hirsch. who waa eeeretarv of Industry and trade in the Oer- republic before Hltler'a rise to power, estimates that a gain of two and a half to three per cent In output per man hour in 1960 would take from set to si billion from total purchasing power. This would about offset new money to be pump ed Into tht national stream through veteran' life insurance dividends. wage increases, higher minimum wages and pensions paid out. This balance to important because If purchasing power goes uo. and the supply of goods does not, the result to Inflation, and higher prices, Other Boosts Other additions to purchasing power next year Include; an extra billion dollars over last year for foreign aid, including arming west ern Europe and perhaps helping to liquidate England's debt: another billion dollars for moving U. s. in dustry around to defend It from possible A-bomb attack; and a bil lion dollars mere of residential and public construction than last year,1 On the deflationary side, how ever. In addition to higher produc tivity are the following: a loss of U billion through lower exports and higher imports: a drop of $3 bil lion through the anticipated decline a Business pronts and business con struction; a decline of fz billion in 'arm expenditures. As for the pull of wsges toward Inflation, the research Institute of America predicts that labor's over all earnings in 1950 will be about ine same as 1949. The rise in hourly wages will be offset by increased productivity and more economical use oi time and machines by man agement.

Dr. Hirsch trunks the 14 extra millions may be employed this war: Three million taking care of the needs of the increase in population; five million providing the higher standards of living set in the last 10 years; and six million at work. directly or Indirectly, as a result of the Cold War.

Boyle's Column Mythical Explorer Tells Of Mars Males Sex Strike m By HAL BOYLE NEW YORK. iPt Want to know what life Is like on the planet Mars? Well, it's a place where: The women rule, but husbands sometimes win their way by going on a sex strike. The Inhabitants live 3000 to 5000 years, and one wife Just got her 139th divorce. The popula tion is limited to two billion sci entifically bred Martians, and the ladies must await their turn to have chil dren. A famous Martian actress recently gave birth to her first child at the age of 1500 years. Martians live In a vast under- BOYLE ground city a mile below the cold surface of the planet. There are no traffic Jams. Travel is by transpar ent vehicles that neutralize gravitation. Ne Crime There haa been no crime for 950 million years. Water Is the most precious commodity, and the last criminal was a man who violated the planet rule against taking more than one bath in a month. His pun ishment: He was disintegrated. This picture of life on Mara Is given tn a tabloid Christmas maga sine Issued every year All in fun by Dr. Hugo Oemsback, publish er of science fiction. The 1949 edition, called "Quip." chronicles the adventures of a mythical explorer named Ore go Banshuck, who landed on Mars last October in a space ship, i You don't have to believe In Ex plorer Banshuck anymore than you believe in Santa Claus. but It's some ror'J he says he found on Mars. The people there are 10 feet tall. Because of the low gravity and thla air of the red planet, they have big flat webbed feet, thin and fragile arms and legs, a barrel chest and a huge head with a brain 9't limes that of a human being. They com municate by thought instead of by voice. Became the air doesnt carry scent well they have developed a long nose like the trunk of an ele phant Their thoughts are exchanged by long telepathic antennas, growing from their heads. A male has two, a female four. "The double antennas allow her to double-talk better." a Martian quipped to the explorer. "This con fuses the male better too." Sometimes the Martian male re bels againt being lady-bossed. "The males go on strike en masse millions of them refuse to make love to their wives." reported Ban shuck. "The last 'sex strike' 14 years ago. involving over 2.500.000 males, lasted flve-and-one-half years. The males won!" But Mars Is no place tor a bache lor. The girls do the courting there what's so different about that? and the man of her choice cant refuse her unless he is already mar ried. The explorer said the Inhabitants of the red planet don't like or trust th human race and regard them as culturally and Intellectually re tarded. "The Earthllngs have the rat's Instincts." one Martian columnist remarked. No Trades It Is doubtful whether the aver age man of Earth, however, would want to trade places. Martians, ac cording to Banshuck. eat synthetic food, never sleep, and are put to death all except the great lead ers at the age of 3000. Outstand ing Martians are allowed to live to 5000. One feature of Martian life, on the other hand, might appeal to Earthly bureaucrats. Banshuck dis covered the planet Is ruled by a i TELLING ! I THE EDITOR !

I To the Editor) A short lime ago I read that William Henry Nagel exhausted hi last legal cause and would be taken to the state penitentiary to start serving his term, I also read the churches had spent thousands of dollars In his behalf and that Nairl stated that aa soon aa he la a free man again there will be a pulpit waiting for him. If these statements were true, I'd like to know what la the matter ilh aome people's reasoning. It Is perfectly all right tor the churches as a unit or a single mem ber to furnish money to see that aityone gets a fair trial, and if piovrn Innocent to help them get any kind of a position they may desire. But when they try to defeat Justice and after Justice, prevails, offer the guilty one a position In U e ministry, thry are either misled or else their sympathy to on the a'rong aide. It Is regrettable that a minister is placed in the atate penitentiary because of the reaction of other in n ales toward him. However he tNagel) must have had a fair trial and haa only him self to blame. There Is so much discussion about what to do about aex Crimea and thla case Is one example. I'm no lawyer but believe Nagel la eligible (m parole after serving a third of his term. That would be eight months. Justice la too lax. What should be done Is If snyone shows criminal tendencies, sex or otherwise, la to place them under observation to determine their aanlty sa most sex caaea and many other crimes are committed by mentally Irresponsible persona. And the penitentiary Is no cure. If the mentally Irresponsible are taken In hand In time many of these terrible sex crimes can be prevented. The mentally Irrespon sible person should receive proper and kind treatment as punishment ' li.furlatet them against society and they are worse when they leave prison than mhen they went In. My opinion la that If anyone wants to epend time and money It could be well spent by giving some homeless boy or girl, man or woman a chance to learn some trade so they can take their place in the world as respected citizens Instead 1 of wasting It trying to defeat Justice, j PAUL E.
