brially Speaking: ; ; No Substitute For Work J. J.

But, whether we like it or not, it is a theory which is solidly supported by centuries of human experience—and human experiment. There is no substitute for production—which simply means there is no substitute for work. A genius may find an easy short cut to success, but the number of geniuses at large at any time can almost be counted on one man’s fingers. Mr. New- berry has restated truths which, if abandoned and forgotten, will lead to individual tragedy and failure—and to the deterioration of the strength and pride of the country. Nemo CC jf . PILLAR TO POST With everybody safely ashore after threatening to go down for the third time in a sea of tissue-paper and tinsel, Post-Christmas reflections are in order. - Reflection number one: Folks who were holding their fingers crossed and praying for a White Christmas were awarded an extra dividend, with "a de-luxeé bonus for those benumbed @ holiday spirits who were marooned for nine hours along the highways and byways of New Jersey and New York states by a freak snowstorm in the face of the weatherman’s blithe prediction that it couldn’t happen either here or there. Hereabouts our White Christmas was a little more moderate, due perhaps to the lukewarmth of the prayers. Most folks have been able to shovel themselves out of their driveways, though people who have ~ garages situated at the top of a sharp slope with a driveway funnel- ing down between two steep banks are snowed in for the duration. We have a driveway of this character, but the circumstance distresses us not at all, as there is 1 the garags wo and wi ca pi and plunge down the bs ‘want to make contact wit tion. Reflection number two: Will the coal in the bin, dwindling rapidly under the combined onslaught of a plummejing thermometer and a civiuiza- searching wind, hold out until the | ili driveway is once more passable, or would it be advisable under the circumstances to close the house and make tracks for the sweet sunny south ? Number three: That crocheted antimacassar for the easy chair. Did Aunt Mary include that in her box with the gilt dogs for the what- not, or was Aunt Susan responsible for the outrage along with the purple knitted silencer? Is it pos- sible to thank both aunts in vaguely glowing terms, clinging closely to generalities and side-stepping the main issue, or is it advisable to own to a state of befuddlement and beg for enlightenment ? * Number four: In how many dis- guises is it possible to serve cold turkey before the family goes on the warpath and demands beefsteak ? Number five: Why is it that all those energetic souls who offered to help trim the Christmas tree in its verdant youth take a run-out powder when the time comes to dis- mantle it and give it decent inter- ment? There is just one person in every family who collects on the prickly job of removing the glisten- ing balls and the tinsel from the withered branches, one person who hauls the dejected looking object across the floor and trundles it through the back door, shedding needles as she goes. There are al- ways more needles than could pos- sibly have been anchored to three original trees. The Little Green Men are responsible for smuggling in the over-plus. Number six The corner in the dining room that harbored the tree looks a little bare, but oh so de= lightfully neat. No tinsel on the floor, no smashed balls, no needles. Number seven: Well, what are you waiting for? There are three hundred shopping days before Christmas. Don’t be a sap this year, postponing the inevitable until ‘two weeks before the deluge. 2 ~~ Mrs. Guy Dunham Is ) Hostess At Xmas Party Mrs. Guy Dunham was hostess to members of the Henry M.

Richardson To Exhibit Trucks Dodge Announces Complete New Line A completely new line of Dodge “Job-Rated” trucks comprising 248 basic chassis models ranging from 4,250 to 23,000 pounds gross vehicle weight and up to 40,000 pounds gross train weight has been an- nounced by Dodge Truck Division of Chrysler Corporation. Some models of the new trucks will be displayed starting January 7 by L. L. Richardson in Dallas. A combination of massive strength and smoothly flowing lines is the keynote of styling for the new trucks. They were designed to combine appearance with com- fort, safety, performance, economy and ease of handling. : Front axles have been moved back and engines have been moved forward to place more of the gross vehicle weight on the front axle and provide better weight distribution.

Babson Sees Increased Suburban Coming Year NUTSHELL November 2, 1948. BUSINESS AND FINANCIAL OUTLOOK FOR 1948 By Roger W. Babson 1. 1948 will be, more or less, of a duplicate of 1947. Certainly there will be no “depression” as so many pessimists are talking about, but fundamental conditions will be- come increasingly less favorable. Watch out ofter November 2, 1948. GENERAL BUSINESS 2. The above paragraph applies mostly to gross business. Certain industries will show smaller net profits. This means that, in some cases, dividends may be less in 1948. Remember some things may be allocated or rationed again in 1948. 3. The reconversion from war to peace has been entirely completed; war surpluses are pretty well dis- posed of; and 1948 will even show a resumption of military purchases. 4, Inventories, quoted both at their price values and their vol- umes, will increase during 1948. Both raw material piles and manu- factured goods will be in greater supply during 1948. COMMODITY ‘PRICES . 5. Notwithstanding the above paragraph, some allocations or pri- orities may be reinstated in 1948. The public is sick of high prices and will make demands for some price controls in thé case of certain products in short supply. 6. The retail price of some goods, other than food products, will be higher during 1948 as the final turn has not yet been reached for all types of goods. 7. We exypect to see the peak in wholesale commodity prices sometime during 1948. We, there- fore, advise going easy on inven- tories, especially on borrowed money. 8. Retail price changes will lag after wholesale price changes. This explains why we expect retail prices on good quality merchandise to hold up for awhile after wholesale prices begin to decline. BUT 1948 WILL BE A YEAR OF WAR PREPARA- TIONS. FARM OUTLOOK 9. The total farm income for 1948 should approximately equal that of | 1947; but we forecast lower prices for wheat, corn, and certain other, products. Farmers should certainly diversify more in 1948, get out of debt, put money into improvements, and prepare for real trouble some- day. 10. The supply of certain vege- tables, fruits, and fish products should increase during 1948 and the price of these should fall off barring some weather, insect, or blight catastrophes. 11. Meat will be in shorter sup- ply in 1948 than in 1947. Should the current propaganda to “eat less and have a better figure” gain popularity, upward pressure on meat prices would be greatly re- duced. 5 12. Farmers will try to ‘get both 1948 Presidential candidates to promise further subsidies. The above four Farm Forecasts assume normal weather which we do not attempt to predict. LOWER TAXES 13. The Federal debt will be de- creased during 1948. 14. No personal taxes will he increased during 1948 and there will be some reductions, — per- haps 5% to 10% in the upper brackets and the entire elimin- ation of those in the lowest bracket. 15. We forecast that the new tax bill will enable a man to share his income tax equally with his wife without sharing his income or property. . 16. The 25% tax limit on long term gains will remain unchanged. RETAIL SALES 17. Goods on counters will be of better grade in 1948, even if re- tail prices hold up. 18. There will be many ‘‘mark- down sales” of goods of inferior quality and curbs on installment buying may return. 19. The dollar value of all retail sales in 1948 should at least equal 1947. 20. The unit value of retail sales will be less in 1948 than in 1947; there will be fewer customer pur- chases in most stores, although each customer may visit more stores to “shop around.” FOREIGN TRADE 21. Our foreign trade will be legs in 1948 than in 1947. We shall help Europe; but it will be on a more economical and efficient scale. 22. More foreign loans will he made during 1948; but many of these will be direct to business con- cerns rather than to political gov- ernments. 23. There will be considerable competition from other countries in legitimate foreign trade where the credit is good. Other countries will not compete with us in our ‘“chari- ties”; but they certainly will com- pete for all profitable business. 24. Throughout 1948 war talk and uprisings will continue; but no World War III will start in 1948. WAR PREPARATIONS WILL AC- CELERATE. : LABOR OUTLOOK 25. 1948 will see an average hourly wage rise of 5% to 7%. Lower income prices should increase buying power, but this will be off- set by further rises in the cost of living . 26. There need be no more un- employment in 1948 than in 1947; but “Unemployment Insurance” will be taken advantage of by too many unprincipled people. 27. Wageworkers will gradually see that the Taft-Hartley Bill puts a checkrein only on their labor leaders, but not on Union member- ship. Hence, the bitter hatred against thig Bill will gradually sub- side. The Bill is merely an “SEC” for labor leaders who need it today as much as investment bankers needed the SEC which was started ten years ago. 28. Any labor legislation during 1948 will be to amend the Taft- Hartley Bill and to raise minimum wages. INFLATION 29. The Inflation Era which we have forecast for several years will remain at this stage until Novem- ber 2, 1948. There will be no reckless printing of currency or government borrowing in 1948. 30. 1948 will see a public reaction against ‘feather bedding”, ‘‘work- less” jobs, and union rules which result in slow-ups. More labor- saving machinery will be installed. The public is gradually realizing that inflation can be beaten only by increased production. 31. Sometime during 1948 pro- duction in many lines will have caught up with consumption which will prevent further price increases in such lines. 32. There will be many inflation and price investigations” during 19- 48. Both the Democrats and Re- publicans will try to lay the blame for high prices on the other party. STOCK MARKET 33. We believe that 1948 will be a year of switching, for various reasons. One of these will be an attempt to get out of stocks of com- panies which have most of their assets in big ‘“vulnerable-in-case-of- war’ cities into companies whose assets are well distributed and safe from attack. 34. The Administration will try to keep the Dow-Jones Industrial Averages between an upper ceiling of around 185 and a floor of around 165. Commodity speculators will be curbed. 35. The wisest will not try to pick any special “winners” in 1948; but will diversify broadly and those who have too many stocks will gradually build up good reserves, in cash or Governments, for the big break which will come some day. 36. Careful buyers of stocks will insist on making full payment and avoid borrowing during 1948. BONDS 37. We are definitely bearish on low-coupon rate, long-term bonds. Many of these will sell at even low- er prices in 1948 than in 1947. Money rates will gradually increase. 38. If Congress gives a good re- duction in Federal taxes to investors in high brackets, 1948 will see a further falling off in the prices of most municipals and other tax- exempt bonds. As indicated above, however, we do not expect such a desired tax reduction. 39.

Though she couldn’t eat any turkey dinner on Christmas, she got a great kick out of the hundred and forty Christmas greeting cards from her many friends and neighbors and is thoroughly enjoying all the lovely holiday flowers that scent her room. Still the same cheerful person she has always been, she has resolved that she won’t let her son John down—and will be out and rarin’ to go in less time than he was. = Tommy Kingston Laid To Rest Accident Victim Buried Saturday The community was saddened during the Christmas holidays by the death of Thomas Kingston, Jr., fourteen-year-old son of Mr. and Mrs. Thomas Kingston, at Nesbitt |p Memorial Hospital where he had been a patient for a week. Tommy died Tpgesday morning, December 23, Los regaining consciousness = after being __stfuck by an automobilew=or™ Memorial | Highway just a week earlier while going to school band practice. Despite the constant efforts of several physicians—he had eleven blood transfusions— the care of three nurses and the tireless vigil of his parents who were at his bed- side night and day, Tommy never rallied. He had multiple brain hem- orrhages; his right leg was fractured and his left leg was broken in two places. Tommy was born in Wilkes-Barre on May 11, 1933 and came with his family to Dallas when he was five. Here he grew into a fine active boy who loved all kinds of sports. He played well at baseball on kids’ teams and his ambition was to make the school basketball squad this year. He was the constant companion of his dad and this year for the first time hunted deer with him. They delighted in all night fishing trips together. But for all his interest in sports and music—he had played trumpet in the school band since sixth grade —Tommy was deeply religious. He had a record for seven years perfect attendance at Dallas Methodist Sun- day school. When he was away on weekend fishing trips he always made it a point to attend the near- est Sunday School. Last spring he became a member of the church. He loved his béand uniform and was buried in it. Boy Scouts, class- mates, members of the school band in uniform were present at the largely attended funeral services in Dallas Methodist Church the day after Christmas. Tommy’s pastor, Rev. Frederick Reinfurt preached the sermon. Bearers, all members of the band, David Evans, Benjamin Jenkins, Roland Gavenus and Franklin Pav- lick. Interment was in Woodlawn Cemetery. Arthur Newmans, this will mean reconstruction and enlargement of its present building, and installation of dial equipment no later than the early part of 1949. Tremendous growth and demand for service throughout the entire area served by the company in- volves unprecedented additions ef- fecting virtually every subscriber in the twenty-two exchange areas of the company. Fireproof buildings will -be con- structed at Dallas and Clarks Sum- mit. The proposed buildings will enhance the value of real estate and be an attractive addition to the communities. The automatic equip- ment, which was placed on order in 1946, to convert the manual oper- ation to automatic dial, will be in- stalled, according to the promised delivery, the latter part of 1948 and the early part of 1949. Management of Commonwealth Telephone Company properties was taken over by Senator Andrew J. Sordoni in November 1928. Since that time, constant improvements have been made to rehabilitate and extend facilities. Chestnut poles have been replaced until today the entire property is practically rebuilt with creosoted long leaf yellow pine poles. Likewise, cables and copper wire have replaced iron wire throughout the system. These im- provements are part of the ultimate plan and have been stepped up as part of the postwar construction program, which will bring dial ser- vice. For the past 19 years, the Com- monwealth Telephone Company has gradually been building up the property to the point where dial conversion will be a reality. Dur- ing these years, no dividends have been paid, and likewise, no officer in the Company above the vice- President and General Manager has received any compensation. At the end of World War II, the Company had less than 500 with- held orders. 2,000 deferred applications, and during this same period has install- ed 1,749 telephones. Toll calls have increased over the period from 4,000 per day to 5,200 per day, with a large percentage of calls originating at the Clarks Sum- mit and Dallas offices. Similarly, local calls have increased greatly. Toll circuits have beeh overtaxed, and facilities to relieve this have been slowed down due to copper and lead shortages. Many Commonwealth subscribers would like to have individual lines rather than party line service. Dur- ing the war years, however, the Today “it has almost = Company could not expand the tele- phone system sufficiently to meet these demands. ; Local telephone rates have not been changed during the 19 years that the present management has been operating the property regard- less of the rapid rise in cost of materials and labor in the tele- phone industry during the past several years. As an indication, labor payroll has increased 70% in the past two years. The Commonwealth Telephone Company is part of a system which includes the Bradford County Tele- phone Company and the Luzerne Telephone Company which accom- modates patrons in an arc from Ringtown, - near Shenandoah, to Wapwallopen to Dallas and the Back Mountain territory and thence to Bradford County and the New York State Line. It serves parts of Luzerne, Lack- awanna, Susquehanna, Columbia, Schuylkill, Bradford, Sullivan and all Wyoming Counties. In spite of all handicaps and de- lays, the Commonwealth Company is continuing to improve and en- large its plant facilities, and to change to automatic dial operation at the earliest possible date. | Hosts At Twenty- Sixth Annual Christmas Party Mr. and Mrs. Arthur Newman en- tertained a number of old friends at a Christmas party at their home on Demunds road last Saturday eve- ning.
