Prosperity
Must Be Earned .n cK-* s'3
The frantic activity of the stock
market the past few weeks has
given some Americans pause to
think about the soundness of their
prosperity. William McChesqey
Martin, Jr.’s June 1 speech, which
preceded the worst of the stock
market decline, - has - been followed
by numerous official .and unoffi¬
cial statements regarding our econ¬
omy. We regard this discussion at
this particular time : as~jiighly use
ful.
Depressions are not inevitable.
Neither is - prosperity. Economic
conditions are, very simply, caused
by men and how they ...apt. De¬
pressions can be caused by two fac¬
tors — a mass psychology which
develops when people begin *„to
think there is going to be a de¬
pression .jand. plan accordingly —
or by actual maladjustments in the
nation^, economy. - v. n £ l
1 We do? not-think that Mr. Mart¬
inis-sober speeeh is going to create
a depression psychology. To the
extent that, he questioned the glow¬
ing euphoria that • has :‘been ema
jiatkig from the rest of the offical
team in Washington, lie has: prob-.
ably achieved his purpose. A boom
psychology is dangerous. It tends
to put a nation to sleep-at the very
moment it needs to-be alert.
. There are some maladjusments
in the economy — for instance,
| overbuilding in commercial real es

n: t s Forest Fires
The number of forest fires in th«

than that swept by fir# to 190.
n<5w being cut, it is becoming clear
to many for the first time that
these deficits have been the source
of world liquidity and the basis for
the huge increase in international
trade. Irresponsible attacks on the
dollar could not only weaken inter¬
national commerce, but could have
repercussions on domestic econom¬
ies, including ours, which no one
can frosee.
Growth is normal. -It is not always
Cven, but we do not find anything
unusual or unnatural about a ma¬
ture industrial nation adding to
its economic strength year by year.
Better understanding of fiscal and
monetary measures, the virtual
lack of inflation since 1958, better
inventory control on the part of
business — all these factors indi¬
cate that we are learning how to
manage ourselves better, — Edi¬
torial in Christian Science Monitor.

Time to Kick the Habit
Washington columnist Lyle Wil¬
son draws an unusual, and ominous
paralell. “To reduce taxes repeat¬
edly while spending borrowM mon
ey probably is like the use of mor¬
phine — comforting and good un¬
der controlled conditions but dis¬
astrously habit forming. The user
becomes hooked. Since 1933 the
United States has been hooked by
deficit spending.
“The time and symptoms of with¬
drawal are terrible to anticipate.*:
So terrible that politicians and
people may never face up to -gov¬
ernment economy and debt retire¬
ment.”
There is certainly every reason
for Mr. Wilson’s pessimism. At the '
same time, painful as withdrawal
might be, the agony that will re¬
sult if deficit financing goes on
long enough is certain to be far
worse. The dollar wilt become less
and less valuable, and the stand¬
ards of living of millions will go
steadily down. Many, such as those
who live on pensions and other
fixed incomes, will be impoverish
ed..
As with morphine addiction, the
time to kick the deficit habit is
pow.: The longer we wait, the
tougher it becomes.

Whot's Going On
In Your
White County Schools
By Telford Hulsey, Superintendent
m6ney to operate schools
The money to operate schools
comes from three sources, federal,
state and local taxes. The new
Senate Bill 180 increases the local
taxes ftjr educational purposes so
you can expect an increase in
school taxes for the next few years.
* * • •
THREE CLASSES OF SCHOOLS
There are three agencies that set
up standards for schools in Geor¬
gia. The State Board of Education
has a set of standards that all the
schools in Georgia must meet to
get state aid.
White Gmmty meets this stand
ard.
Georgia Accrediting Agency has
a set of standards that most of
Georgia Schools meet. Part of
White County Schools are accredi
ited by Georgia Accrediting Agen¬
cy. Southern Association of Colleg¬
es and Schools has a set of stand¬
ards that some schools in Georgia
meet. No White County Schools
are accredited by the Southern As¬
sociation.
We hope to have all White Coun¬
ty Schools accredited by Georgia
Accredation and White County
High School accredited by the
Southern Association.
Some New Weed Killer
Held Fatal
EAST ORANGE, N.J., June 19—
(UPI) Many of the newly de
veloped insecticides and weed kil¬
lers are equally fatal to humans,
according to the Essex County Med¬
ical Society.
Dr. Robert E. Jennings, chair¬
man of the society’s Child Health
Committee, said some of the ac¬
tive ingredients of the garden
products are chemicals which may
cause dizziness, nausea, vomiting
and convulsions leading to death.
Two children in Wisconsin and
three, youngsters in Florida have
died from eating fruit contami¬
nated with one of the chemicals.
Essex County Medical Society
president Dr. Robert E. Fullilove
said extreme caution should be ob¬
served in handling the weed kil¬
lers and insecticides. He said they
should be kept out of reach of
children and any that touches hu¬
mans should be washed off at
once.

Warning to U. S. t
On Easy Credit t
BASEL, Switzerland — U. S. offi
als now have come under stern
criticism from an international fi¬
nance agency for insistence on ‘ex¬
cessively easy’ credit in the face of
persistent balance-of-payments de¬
ficits.
The criticism came in the annual
report of the Bank of International
Settlements. BIS, formed in 1930
to handle Germany’s war debt pay¬
ments, has become a focal point
for information and planning in
international finance.
In general, BIS approved budget
and other policies used by the
United States to promote economic
growth while curbing inflattion.
The International Bank also was
moderately optimistic about the fu¬
ture of the dollar.
Voluntary controls on corpora¬
tions, banks and other institutions,
the report noted, have been success¬
ful in restraining an outflow of
capital.
Needed: tome surpluses. BIS
raised some doubts. The health of
the dollar, said the report, requires
not merely a payments balance, but
a period of surpulses.
Also, said BIS, voluntary con¬
trols on capital outflows may not
be enough in the long run to re¬
sist the attraction of higher interest
rates abroad.
In addition, said the report, di¬
rect controls over capital flows
can be a threat to the international
monetary system. A better solution,
in the BIS view: “higher long-term
interest rates.”
Tax cuts in the U.S. said the
report have shown that invest¬
ment can be stimulated more ef¬
fectively by tax relief than by
easy credit.. Said the BIS:
“Combined with continued flexi¬
bility in the application of budget
policy, higher long-term interest
rates need not impede domestic
growth.
‘•Indeed, because of their contri¬
bution toward improved external
equilibrium, domestic growth would
be more soundly based.
“Hence,” said the report, “tbe
problem of securing a more funda¬
mental equilibrium still remains.”
(—From U. S. News & World
Report, June 28, 1965.)
Teen-Age Club i -j*
Of Sex, Theft W"%
Is Uncovered A
NASHVILLE, Tenn. CAP) — Auto¬
mobile thefts and sexual intimac¬
ies are apparently part of the initi¬
ation rites of a large teen-age club
uncovered in suburban Madison, a
police official says.
The officer said another boy “told
us that teen-ager were required to
commit sexual intimacies in tha
presence of the club’s leader be¬
fore being accepted as a member.
Officers also obtained a file
from the boy which contained ia*
formation on “SO to 60” girls.
