" LONESOME BOY SHOOTS
The black hole was the entrance
to a mammoth cave filled with the
roar of the sea.
Bucky and the Jindian crept
slowly in ‘and peered about.
Strange bluish lights flickered
from the walls. Jagged rocks jut
ting from the ceiling threw enor
mous eerie shadows on the sides
of the cave. Was Herman the
Woozle hiding here?
For a long while the two hunt
ers listened for a sound to tell
them where the creature was. But
the sea pounding on the rocks
outside made such noise they
could hear no other sound.
Cautiously they searched the
cave — their bows and arrows
ready in their hands. They found
a tunnel that seemed to lead into
another cave. The tunnel glowed
with blue light. It was plain to see
that nothing was hiding there.
The two boys crept through it and
entered the second cave. Here it

was quiet. They could scarcely
hear the far away sea.
It was a smaller cave than the
first but it too was empty. They
noticed three doors leading out of
the cave. They knew that the
Wozzle was behind one of those
doors. .
Bucky finally found his voice.
“Which one shall we try?” he
whispered. Lonesome Boy shrug
ged his shoulders. He, too, seemed
unable to move,
Bucky raised a finger. “Eenie,
meenie, miney, moe,” he whis~
pered. When he finished, he tip
toed to the door that was pointed
out. Softly he opened it and peer
ed in.
It was a kitchen! But the strang
est kitchen you ever saw! In the
center was a stove made of rocks
with a glowing fire of seaweed
and drift wood. Across the top
of the stove was a small whale.
It was being cooked for someone’s
dinner!
Quickly Bucky shut the door.

Lonesome Boy went to the sec
ond door. He opened it. Here was
a bedroom with a circular bed
that wound round and round the
room,
“I guess he needs all that for his
tail!” thought Bucky. He was glad
the bed was empty,
Only one door remained. To
gether the boys pushed it open a
tiny crack. They never made a
sound. But it would not have mat
tered if they had for insthe room
iteslf there was a most extraor
dinary noise.
Someone was humming a song.
But what humming! Like pots
and pans banging in a kitchen or
children skating on an attic floor.
Suddenly they saw someone. It
was Herman the Wozzle!
The hideous creature, standing
on his bird legs and balancing
himself with his snake tail, was
looking in a mirror while he
shaved his lion face and hummed
his dreadful croaking tune.
Bucky, overcome with fright
backed away from the door.
“I can’t help it,” he thought
miserably. “I'm going to run
away.” He started off—the scared
est little cowboy that ever was.
But Lonesome Boy drew back
WHEN we compare the conditions of nations and people in anti-capitalistic
countries with the security, prosperity, happiness and well-being of our
people under United States capitalism, we appreciate our privilege of living
in a capitalistic, democratic country.
The basic principle of the free, capitalistic system which we have developed
in our country affords opportunity to the individual who is willing to use his
talents to the extent of his ability and desire to produce—to accumulate some
thing for investment in a home, a farm, in savings accounts, bonds and other
' securities, life insurance, the education of his children, and comforts of life—
and become a capitalist.
The following facts give us a deep appreciation of what capitalism has
done and is doing for our country and its people.
Private capital in the form of taxes and purchases of United States Govern
ment Bonds made it possible for us to spend three hundred thirty billion dollars
in carrying out our part of the program in winning World War 11. This, of
course, is unimportant when we consider the loss of life and permanent and
partial disability which our youth sustained and which cannot be measured in
dollars. ;
Our participation in World War II has left us today with a national debt
of two hundred fifty-seven billion dollars, but on the credit side we find that
our annual national income, at the current rate, is equal to 90% of our total
national debt. Of this total national debt, thirty-nine billion dollars are in
treasury obligations owned by Government agencies, so our net debt is slightly
over two hundred eighteen billion dollars.
The United States free enterprise business system is operating at its highest
. level, furnishing employment to sixty-two million people at the highest hourly
and weekly earnings ever recorded. Stockholders and corporations, after paying
the highest peacetime taxes in the post-war years, have had the highest net aver
age earnings in history from their investment.
Our farmers had cash income from marketing last year amounting to
twenty-seven billion five hundred million dollars, the highest on record.
Total farm assets of our country amount to slightly more than one hundred
twenty-seven billion dollars, against which there is an indebtedness of only
twelve billion four hundred million dollars. Thus our farmers have ownership
equity of over 90 per cent in their farms.
In non-farm homes, counting apartment buildings with four or less fami
lies, and all valued at a total of two hundred billion dollars, our home owners
have an equity of one hundred fifty-eight billion dollars—a substantial owner
ship of 79 per cent.
Therefore, as a result of the opportunity provided by our free-enterprise
capitalistic system, the people of our nation have a free and clear ownership in
their homes and farms of 83.4 per cent..
Our people have savings of more than one hundred thirty-six billion dol
lars in government bonds and savings accounts.
An additional ninety-seven billion dollars are on deposit in commercial
bank accounts. :
Our men and women have a cash investment of sixty billion dollars in
life insurance policies,

on his bow and took careful aim
with his arrow through the crack
in the bathroom door. Suddenly
Herman the Wozzle moved away
from the mirror.
Zing! the arrow left the bow and
straightway shattered the mirror
to pieces.
Herman the Wozzle roared. He
snatched wide open the door, and
fixed the terrified with an awful
glare.
At the roar, Bucky turned back
to see what was happening.
I “Who comes to my cave must
die!!” screamed the Wozzle and
he reached for the Jihdian.
Lonesome Boy let go with an
other arrow—aimed straight and
true at the Wozzle’'s heart. But
Herman reached out, caught the
arrow as if it had been a rubber
ball, and broke it in two. Again
and again Lonesome Boy shot
arrows. Herman laughed and
caught them all and broke them
to pieces.
Finally no arrows were left.
Then Herman the Wozzle stopped
laughing and prepared to pounce
on the Jindian boy. Bucky the
cowhoy stood quaking in the tun
nel door,

A high percentage of our working people are provided with n

- We are increasing our efforts to improve the standard of living of the
people in the lower income brackets. :
The United States, with only six per cent of the world popuhfim and
seven per cent of its land area, under its cemocratic, capitalistic system, before
World War 11, produced forty-seven per cent of the world’s manufactured
goods, but what is more important, ninety per cent of that production was
consumed within our own borders. Today we are producing over fifty per cent.
of the world’s manufactured goods, of which a substantial percentage is foe
other countries. :
Capital sm is backing freedom of worship and providing increasing educa=
tional opportunities by constantly giving more and more support to the two
things upon which our democratic, cultural civilization depends—spiritual and
educational values. :
We have a permanent investment in churches and schools of eighteen bi
lion five hundred million dollars and are spending annually eight billion dollase
for religious and educational purposes. e
Membership in the churches is increasing at a much faster rate than the
increase in the population, and in our Sunday Schools at an even greater _
In the past thirty years, elementary school enrollment has increased ‘
per cent, high school enrollment 146.1 per cent and college and university ene
rollment 351.6 per cent. !
Our public school expenditures per pupil enrolled have gone up frons
$48.02 in 1920 to $132.06 in 1947, or 175.0 per cent. 1
Since 1920 the population of our country has increased 43 per cent and the:
investment in school and college equipment Las increased 571 per cent. "
Since the beginning of our industrial and scientific developmeny. in dn.{
early 1800’s, the capitalistic system, due to individual freedom, initiative and!
ingenuity, has given the world more of the comforts and convenieaces of life
than mankind had received in the previous 5000 years of civilization,
Under this system our people as a whole are happy and united, are increass
ing their capital and enjoying a fuller spiritual, cultural and inaterial life. ,
Today our scientific and industrial knowledge and experience in the varke j
ous fields of peaceful affi::ity are open to the Test of the world, and in this
respect we have joined with other like-minded nations in contributing to the
technical assistance program of the United Nations.
No nation, no individual, no venture, no private or public institution, ne
program for the welfare of people can progress without capital,
It is each individual’s duty to contribute to the preservation, protection
and improvement of our democratic civilization on a basis which is sound and
fair to all our people.
