Here's a story we like, that's
attributed to one famous general
who made a pretty Rood president
Gen. George Washington was
standing in front of an open fire,
talking to a friend. The General
Marled fidgeting from the heal on
his backsides.
"A general should be able to
stand up under lire," his friend
wisecracked. '
Yes," replied our first presi
dent, "but it ill behooves him to
receive It in the rear.
George Washington is the only
American general who ever served,
a foreign power. He served with
the British in the French and In-
diRn wars.
George Washington was the first
predecessor of Gene Gross, super
intendant of the Klamath Experi
ment Station. Washington, as a
farmer, started his own experi
ment station, working particularly
towards developing better forage
grasses.

Qam&A
', ABC's
By NORMAN WALKER
(For James Marlow)
. WASHINGTON Mt The govern
ment is studying still another way
of allowing employers to give work
ers higher wages.
' The labor experts call it a pro
ductivity allowance, or an annual
improvement factor.
The Idea, as urged by labor un
ions, is that workers should get a
specific share of the steadily im
proving production output of Amer
ican industry.
Industry members of the Wage
Stabilization Board the agency
now discussing the matter have
said that a productivity allowance
may be all right In some particular
industry. But they oppose any
blanket sanction for all employers
and unions.
BLESSING
The whole notion got Ihe blessing
of President Truman in his eco
nomic report to Congress last
month in which he said:
"Wage adjustments to allow for
increases m productivity, u care
fully limited and. firmly adminis
tered, can provide incentives which
outweignt any possioie imiauonary
effect.
This, together with published
views of the Presidents council of
economic advisers, suggests an ad
ministration belief that if workers
are given a bonus for greater pro
duction, it will spur them on to
even greater efforts.
' This, pf course, might or might
not happen. Government statistics
indicate an upward productivity,
or efficiency, improvement in the
neighborhood of 2 or 3 per cent a
year. This Is the average for Amer
ican Industry generally.
Effort put by workers into pro
duction is only one of the many
possible explanations for this in
crease. Another is better machin
ery and methods. And still another
is better management and direc
tion of labor. 1
The application of the produc
tivity principle is what worries
business most. The unions want
the Wage Stabilization Board, or
WSB, to allow all employers to
raise wages by 3 per cent since
thats the approximate average for
all industry.

NEW YORK Iff) Business is
borrowing billions of dollars to help
America grow.
The size of the debt that industry
Is running up to get "new money"
to put into the business is high
lighted this week by announcement
of American Telephone and Tele
graph Company's plan to sell 550
million dollars worth of securities.
That would be the largest piece of
corporate financing in
American i
nistory
And it would brine this one com-
pany's post-war financing well
above the two billion dollar mark.
In January American business i
issued a total of 400 million dollars
worth of bonds, and preferred and
common stocks, compared with 175
inillion dollars in January of last
year. Big issue last month was the
126 million dollars of debentures
by Aluminum Company of Amer
ica. FAITH
Corporate financing for all of
1951 topped 3 Vs billion dollars, as
it also had done In the previous
year. That's a lot of money put
out as evidence of faith in the
growth of America.
Business has been selling these
stocks and bonds to the public and
to Institutional Investors to get
money to expand its plant and
equipment. It has been raising the
money in other ways, too through
retained earnings, through direct
loans from banks and insurance
companies.
Interest rates on these - borrow
ings has been going up, rising slow
Jy for almost a year ago. And as
the cost of borrowing rises, cor
poration managements are more
tempted to explore the possibility
of Issuing stock instead.

WeVeheard , at one time or an
other, of strikes by practically ev
ery craft or group of manual work
ers, but never anything like this.
We've always been led to be
lieve that the Insurance man, like
the Fuller Brush salesman, was
the acme of independent, non-regimented
Individual enterprise.
Imagine the implications should
this sort of thing spread. Suppose,
say, that the doctors and dentists,
and their very important co-workers,
the nurses, should go on strike.
It makes your hair curl to think
of the results.
Go a step farther, and Imagine
the housewives on strike. How long
would it take to end the wars of
a hungry world, if every little
woman boycotted the kitchen?

The labor groups say they not
only want to keep up with the cost
of living, but want to increase that
living standard.
But in the current steel wage
case, where a productivity increase
is asked, that industry contends
workers already receive more man
they are entitled to both for cost-of-living
and increased productivity.
Also, if 3 per cent is the average
productivity Increase for all indus
try, it is undoubtedly true mat pro
ductivity is stationary in some busi
nesses, or even declining.
Is it right to allow firms with de
clining productivity to pay for ris
ing productivity? Yet it might be
hard for them to keep workers,
when a more efficient firm across
the street is allowed to pay the ex
tra wage.
Also, some firms pay for in
creased output by incentlve-'plans
in which workers are given more
pay 'Individually when they in
crease their own output above
some standard. Is it right to let
all workers share In increased out
put when only some of them may
be responsible for It? Or is it prop
er to encourage firms to pay a
productivity allowance on top of
incentives? ' .
Another phase of the problem:
Should the productivity pay in
crease be limited to a firms ability
to demonstrate its own particular
productivity increase?
YARDSTICK !
Measuring productivity is some
times fairly difficult, its not so
hard in a factory producing k. cer
tain type of gadget, where all you
have to do is to divide the number
of gadgets produced in a year by
the number of labor man-hours in
volved, taking the result and com
paring it with a prior year.
But its hard where the product
is changed, where a much more
complicated airplane is being built
one year, than last years simpler
model. And its hard to measure
in an insurance agency, or a shoe-
shine parlor.
Chairman Nathan P. Feinsinger
of the WSB discussed this with
businessmen in New York a few
weeks ago. He said some experts
doubted that productivity of more
than a fourth of all American work
ers could be measured at all.

management must pay Interest
whether business is good or rotten.
The phone company's plan to
raise S50 million dollars is through
the issue of convertible debentures.
These are bonds yielding a return
like other forms of debt, but they
can be converted into common

holder prefers to take his chances
on continuing to get the $9 a share

$100 debenture along with $38 in

The phone company has put out
four issues of these debentures
since the war, raising that way
more than 1 billion dollars. Al
most all of them have been turned
into common stock,

In this way the amount of phone

creased steadily over the years. In

The day wlIT likely never come
when campaigning politicians con
sistently eniDloy the reasoned ar
gument of the law courts and ex
hibit the polished manners of the
gentlemen's clubs. But that doesn't
mean there is no point in trvini
to elevate the standards of political
combat.
Sen. Mike Monroney, Oklahoma
Democrat, recently bobbed up with
a concrete proposal to do just that.
He wants to create a three or live
member fair elections commission
to conduct on-the-spot inquiries into
campaigns ana censure unlair
practices.
The idea, of course, would be to
discourage Irresponsible, mud-slinging
activity by candidates seeking
either a seat in Congress or the
presidency. Monroney believes that
trie commission needs elder states
men as members if it is to be
effective. Only men of that stand
ing would be accepted as above
the partisan strife.
On the face of It, there is a lot
to be said for this plan, or one
with this general aim. Campaign
ing in the United States has always
been a pretty rough and tumble
affair. But of recent years it has
frequently been dragged to unpar
alleled depths by resort to defama
tion and scurrility.
Here and there in the congres
sional campaigns of 1950 tactics
were used which anv American who
honors fair play could only view
NEW YORK t Whatever hao-
pened to Saturday night?
Saturday use a to have a special
character of its own all over Amer
ica. Today it Is just eetlinz to be
another day in the week.
A generation or so ago almost
every town in the country was. as
the saying went, "a Saturday night
town." .
Saturday was the workine man's
one day of glamour, a time when he
could kick up his heels and show
he was really bom to be a king.
3i was the week's regular Mardl
Gras carnival, looked forward to
by everybody.
Everyone who lived in the country
came in for a night on the town.
The farmer unhitched his plow and
hitched up his wairon. While his
wife toured the stores, buying the
best gingham and ribbons she
could afford, he sat with other
larmers In the courthouse square
ncd traded crop gossip and found
out who was suinq: whom- and
cussed out the local banker and
criticized the weather.
Then the family took in a dance
or a show and clip-clopped con
tentedly home late at night, the
kids asleep in the back of the wag
on, the grownups wondering If the
hired hand would show up by milk
ing time and saying to each other,
"It must be awful to live In town
all week. I Just couldn't stand it."
In the cities Saturday was nav-
day. The Jubilee signal was the
factory closing whistle that blew at
noon or one clock, me workman
paused on the way home to wet
owti whisUe and get a haircut,
His children could hear the .happy
Jingle in his pockets. -
The family bathtub got a real
workout then, washing away the
week's sweat and care, and some
body was always banging on the
door and saying, "hurry up in
there, won't you? I'm next."
Mama tcrubbed the younirest kids
in a washtub In the kitchen to save
time.
After that there was the week's
grocery buying and the candy buy
ing, and dinner out. and a movie.
?lslcr disappeared with her best
uenu, ana oig oroiner sneaxea on
with nis pais and mama fretted
I'd Just like to know what those
boys are really up to now."
The next morning . everybody
woke up happy, tired and so broke
you looked the other way when
you dropped your contribution into
the plate they passed at church.
It made such a small tinkle you
felt guilty.
Mama then cooked a mammoth
Sunday dinner. After that was
eaten, everybody was so worn out
they had to take a nap, and you
could hear snoring all over the
house. The next day was Monday,
the beginning of the empty-pocket
part of the week, but the excite
ment of looking forward jo another
Saturday night would carry yon
through.
That was the way America cele
brated Its weekends for a couple

with shame. There Is already
ample evidence that the pattern
thus established Is being repeated
in 1952.
The feeling: seems to have got
about that the end Justifies the
means, the Important thing Is to
elect or to defeat: it matters not
how this Is accomplished.
Politics never was an enterprise
for the thin-skinned. A candidate
has to expect abuse and a stretch
ing of the facts. But there Is a
limit to everything. And any poli
ticinn or citizen who believes that
unbridled and venomous attacks
are legitimate strategy has lost all
loucn with the American tradition.
We like to look down our noses
at the -'fanatics" of .the Middle
East and other areas who today
are stirring so much trouble in
the world. Yet there is in this coun
try an occasional display of ex
tremism which is . not easily dis
tinguished from the antics of the
Arab nationalists.
The Middle Eastern extremist in
cludes assassination In his bag of
tricks. Our more violent campaign
ers seldom go that far. But they
do not shrink from assassinating
diameter. Tnere is perhaps some
question which type of assault is
ine less Kindly.
Lawmakers who revere the
American tradition of fair play
who believe in honest presentation
ot men and issues, ought to take
I a good look at Monroney's plan,
of centuries. In hundreds of towns
Saturday night Is still the night
people choose to celebrate, get
diunk. Ret in a fight, or propose
lo their best girl.
But the five-day week, the radio,
and the automobile are changing
the pattern. There are a lot of
"Friday night towns" now. And
many people who live In the coun
try now can't get to town on Sat
urday; they have to stay home and
entertain visitors, from the city,
who flee the concrete canyons at
every chance. .
More and more folks also Just
hole up at home on weekends, say
ing. "I wouldn't go uptown and
fight those crowds for anything."
Whatever happened to Saturdav
night? Of course, there are some
who now try to make every night
a Saturday night, and when Satur
day comes around It no longer feels
like anything special.

Some concern had been stirred in
Congress by published reports over
the weekend that the United States
had promised a division of Ma

Western Europe.
The report was In dispatchps
from Lisbon not carried by the
Associated Press and was attri

McFarland said the matter was
discussed with the President while
the Congressional leaders were be
ing "briefed" by military officers
on the general military picture.
Such a "briefing" has come to
be a routine thing at the Monday
meetings.
McFarland added:
"We found out there has been

ment lo be made.
"No commitment could have
been made, for the President is

the commitment, and he has not
