FINANCIAL FIASO FACTORS
Contributing factors to the federal financial fiasco: Fulton
Lewis, III, in his publication “Exclusive” (February 14, 1968),
uncovered some odd items in President Johnson’s budget for
fiscal year 1969 which the President said was a “tight” budget
and “I have trimmed this budget down to our most absolute
needs
One of these "absolute needs” is a provision
for $62,000 in federal funds to finance a study of the provocative
subject “The Social Life of the Blackbird” . . . Other federal
grants for “absolute needs” include “An Ecology of Blackbird
Social Organization”; $11,200 for a study of “Competition and
Social Organization in Mixed Colonies of Blackbirds”; $29,000
for a study of “Social and Political Participation by Urban
Residents”; grants of $9,100 for “Comparative Studies of
Social Behavior and Communication in the Tenrecs of Mada
gascar," and $15,300 to study the “Life and Work of Andre-
Marie-Ampere” . . .Other grants included $44,900 for
“Determinants of Occupational and Educational Ambition Among
Adolescents” and $50,800 to study “The Bokhara Dialect of
Persian” . . . Mr. Lewis, apparently with tongue in cheek, com
mented “if the President had only bothered to mention in his
State of the Union Address that he needed a ten percent income

Here’s a question we’ll bet
you could ask a thousand
working people and get the
wrong answer. The question is
“Who’s the Boss?”
There’s only one boss, and
whether a person shines shoes
for a living or heads up the
largest corporation in the
world, the boss remains the
same.
It’s the customer. Here is
a person who pays everyone’s
hundred years. The minute it
starts treating him badly, he’ll
put it out of business.
The customer has bought and
will buy everything you have
or will have. He’s bought all
of your clothes, your home, your
car, pays for your children’s
education and your vacation.
He pays all your bills, and
he pays them in exact propor
tion to the way you treat him.

Dear Editor:
Abraham Lincoln had some
thing to say on the subject of
those who violate the law.
"Let every man remember
that to violate the law is to
trample on the blood of his
father, and to tear the charter
of his own and his children’s
liberty.
"Let reverence for the laws
be breathed by every American
mother to the lisping babe that
prattles on her lap; let it be
written in primers, spelling
books, and almanacs; let it be
preached from the pulpit, pro-
claimes in the legislative halls,
and enforced in courts of
justice.
inside a big plant on an assem
bly line might think he’s working
for the company that writes his
pay check, but he is not.
He’s working for the person
who buys the product at the
end of the line. In fact, the
customer can fire everyone in
the company from the presi
dent on down.
And he can do it by simply
spending his money someplace
else. That is one of the reasons
why taking pride in our work is
so important to us personally.
Aside from the joy that comes
from doinganexceptionally
good job, it will help get more
customers, keep the ones we’ve
got, and insure the weekly pay
check.
Some of the largest com
panies that had a flourishing
business a few years ago are
no longer in existence.
They couldn’t -- or didn’t --
satisfy the customer. -- James
H. Simpson, Weiser American.
