Take the movie industry. You hear a lot of brave talk about new dimensions. But everyone knows that 3-D can be oniy a temporary shot of adrenalin. The only thing that will help the movie business is good pictures, and the studios can not make enough of them. TV, too, has the jitters. Some | big shows are finding ready Yuy- ers, but a great number of adver- tisers are shying away from the huge prices asked for programs. As one network official told me: “We've got the shows, but we can’t find the sponsors to pay a million dollars for them.” In the postwar era, the record | be; gan t) feel the twin pinches of less spending money and family interest in TV. But a technological advance—the devel- opment of long-playing records— brought renewed interest in home Phonographs. The film industry and — to a . lesser degree—the I'V concerns are also pinning their futures on the technicians. In the picture busi- ness, the advances have been well publicized. There are the big- screen, audience participation de- vices (Cinerama, Cinemascope) and the 3-D stereoscopic gimmicks (Natural Vision, Paravision, etc.).

That is the unanimous verdict of histor- ians whose job it is to scan and assess the lessons of world history.” HAL BOYLE SAYS NEW YORK (# — What makes and breaks a dictater? The death of Joseph Stalin leaves the average man wondering: “What makes a guy like that anyway? I wouldn’t have lived his life for all the gold in Ft. Knox.” He feels that a dictator is a freak offshoot of some kind, only rarely. to be reckoned with. The truth is the human race has been afflicted through all time by dic- tators, large and small. It still is, it perhaps always will be. ‘The man can_ look around his own small world and count any number of seedling dic- tators, a spoiled child, domineering wife, a brow-beating husband, an overly stern schoolteacher, the lit- tle straw bosses of business and the ward bosses of politics, the |te petty tyrant bureaucrat, an offi- cious cop, a brass-happy officer in the armed forces. How do they differ from Stalin, Hitler, or Mussolini? Only in de- gree. They lack the brains; energy or courage to extend their domi- nance. But they are linked to Stal- in, Hitler and Napoleon’ by the same basic drive, love of power. Most people like to love and be |loved, to hate a little, to rule and be ruled, to have enough prestige to make them feel good—but not |at the price of too much responsi- { bility.
