tension had been high since a
state attorney ordered the clos

he called a spawning ground for
violence.
Maj. Thomas Atkinson of the
sheriff’s department said police
moved into the area to break
up drag racing down a street.
A large crowd of Negroes was

UNIVERSITY PARK, Pa.
(UPI) — A former acting
president of San Francisco State
College believes students are the
adventurers of today.
Dr. Stanley F. Paulson, new
dean of the Pennsylvania State
University’s college of liberal
arts, works with young people to
help them achieve a better
understanding of the society in
which they live.
“The students of today are
more adventurours than we
were,” Paulson said. “They look
beyond the conventional modes
of study. They want more
colorful, more vivid and more
relevant types of study.
“Yet many faculty members
seem more inclined to look back
at the way they were taught.
The problem now is to achieve a
proper balance between the
two, accepting the best of both
viewpoints.”
Recalling his tenure as acting
president of San Francisco State
College, Paulson said new
.courses were developed in
cooperation with such
non-traditional subjects as
radical movements, Far Eastern
modes of contemplation,
non-violence as a means of
social change.

Astute Economists Ask:
Can Inflation Be All Bad?
By RAY CROMLEY
NEA Washington Correspondent
WASHINGTON (NEA)
Some highly respectable economists here are now be
ginning to ask themselves whether a “little” inflation is
not, after all, a desirable thing.
Traditionally, conservative governments have worried
when inflation rose by more than I*£ to 2 per cent a year
over the long pull.
But there is some cautious individual thinking today that
it might be a very good thing to accept, and even plan for,
continuous inflation at an annual rate of about 3 per cent.
Now the men harboring these thoughts are not in a
majority here. And this is by no means accepted govern
ment policy. But neither are these men on the esoteric
fringe. One, for example, is a highly regarded economist
in the high levels of this government. Another, retired,
was for two decades one of the government’s most re
spected, conservative and cautious economic analysts. He
now is a consultant for some major U.S. banking interests.
While we were talking, a high government official con
cerned with the state of the domestic economy called for
his advice on the current inflation problem.
What has led these conservative economists into what
would normally be considered economic heresy can be
explained as follows:
Careful historical analysis and equally detailed studies
of today’s situation indicate that almost anything the gov
ernment can do over the short run to cut inflation also in
creases unemployment.
The more inflation is reduced, the more unemployment
increases.
At the drop of a hat, this group of economists will
“prove” their point by whipping out a chart plotting the
unemployment rate for any given year as compared with
the rate of inflation.
These charts Indeed do seem to show that when infla
tion rises in the United States, unemployment drops pro
portionally and when inflation flattens out, the percentage
of unemployed increases.
Therefore, as the Nixon administration (or any other
administration) slows down the economy by holding down
demand in an attempt to “cure” inflation, the inevitable
result, it seems, is almost sure to be an increase in un
employment greater than the government will be able to
face politically.
So these aforementioned economists think.
The first victims of increasing unemployment would be
the Negroes in the large cities and the youth.
The net result would likely be a sharp increase in un
rest, and new riots more severe than in Watts, Detroit or
Washington, D.C.
It is for these reasons that these economists are toying
gingerly with the “inflation-isn’t-necessarily-so-bad” con
cept.
They put it this way: Which would you rather have,
a lot of unemployment in the cities or, say, a 3-per-cent-a
year rate of inflation?

It may be a little early to be
thinking Christmas at your
hourse, but the manufacturers
already are Yule minded. The
secret of a new tree preserver is
in a formula developed by
Harold C. Cook, of Dixon, DI., a
nationally known florist and
lecturer. Cook says the formula
will work to prolong other
green, too, of cut branches by
inserting them in vases or other
containers using the preservative,
actually a homemade one. The
formula calls for: one gallon of
hot water, to which you add and
mix 4 tablespoons of non-toxic
micronized iron, available at
florist, garden supply, hardware,
grocery and variety stores (do
not use toxic iron chelate); 2
cups of clean light corn syrup,
and 4 teaspoons chlorinated
liquid household bleach. Why
this combination? The iron
releases “stored” food in the
tree, the syrup gives quick
nourishment, the bleach keeps
the water pure, and hot water
improves the capillary action.
