With net earnings reduced, there are less funds to be retained | in a business enterprise. The small corporation is further bedeviled by the fact that existing income | tax laws are drawn so as to make retention of more | than 30 per cent of net earnings after taxes uncertain. The law requires a satisfactory explanation if less than | 70 per cent of net earnings is paid in dividends by | corporations. | out, business, he points particula Because costs and prices War. under pre This makes it extremely difficult for the small corporation to set up adequate reserves for the re- | placement of machinery, high-priced inventories, high- er wages and planned postwar expansion ¥ and unémployment becomes a problem again, the lack of .'Adcqulnv business reserves brought about by a shortsighted tax policy, will be a contributing factor. when serious | The Road to Plenty (Washington Post) Never has there been a time when reflection upon the basic elements in our economic system has been more desirable than it is today.

Is it giving us what we want? iMany Americans are asking searching questions about | high prices, strikes, slums, lack of medical care for some groups and so forth. As we struggle back toward full peacetime production, it is a good time for stock- taking to determine what our assets of tradition, or- ganization and principle are as well as to note the| weaknesses in our economy that need to be buttressed We think the public will welcome, therefore, the thought-provoking campaign that has been launched by the Advertising Council at the request of its public adviscry committee consisting of representatives of business, labor and education. Paul Hoffman, Boris Shiskin and Dr. George Shuster constitute the three- man subcommittee which has outlined the goal to bt sought. That goal consists of informing the people as to what has been accomplished unde the Americen systam to improve living condi-| tions and in stimulating an appreciation of what still remains to be done. Apparently there is to be nc lofty complacency in the camp: 1 The alert men behind it want us to remember that freedom of the individual to’choose his calling or to start and manage his own enterprise, to inqguire into all sorts of affai and to speak his mind is a he e of inestimable value, but at the same time they wish to see this power fully applied to promotion of the public’ welfare in new and unforeseen ways Other cssentials in the American economic way of life outlined by the advisory committee's report are protection for the individual against the basic hazar of life, Government action (when necessary) to saf guard the national security and promote socially de- sirable projects, free collective bargaining, expanding productivity, the freest possible competition consistent with the public welfare, and increased recognition of human values as a prerequisite to better living. In other words, this group of businessmen, labor leaders and educators accepts advancement of the welfare of all the people as its goal. To use its own words: “We | want good housing, good clothing. adequate nutrition, fair employment conditions, wholly adequate educa- able to all, in addition to the'opportunity to get | ahead.” Unquestionably, the power of democracy lies in its ability to satisfy, to a greater extent than any other system, the wants and aspirations of the great body | of the people. That point needs to be reiterated, dem- onstrated and dramatized by an intelligent use of the voluminous facts readily at hand. And the lessons of the past must always be shaped into new goals for the future. When cooperation among diverse groups in this great task is being attained and intelligent had for the underlying demands of the people upon their economic system, we think renewed faith in its vitality and capacity for growth is justificd. What An Asset! (Cincinnati Enquirer) 20 hand in nd received a rude jolt recently from one who any advertising agency would describe as an “eminent medical authority.” Dr. Charles W. Mayo, son of one of the founders of the Mayo Clinic in Rochester, Minn., told a group in Pittsburgh: “If vou want to hire a man who is going to produce, the easiest way to make sure of that is to get one who has a duodenal ulcer.” As the doctor explained, duodenal ulcers make their hosts high- strung and drive them to better work. ulcer is situated on the small intestine which curls heneath the stomach). We don't feel competent to pass judgment upon the medical aspects of this contention—and we're too squeamish to meditate upon its practical connotations. All we have to sav is that we never thought we'd live to see the day when anybody might recommend him- self to an employer by saying that he was sober, industrious, conscientious and had a well developed duodenal nlcer. at Lucas’ anti- diverting these housing materials.
