One thing thou lockest.—Mark 10:21. The rich young man was spoiled
by wealth and power, lie was smug and self-righteous. Christ prescrib-
ed a startling remedy, but the young man went away sorrowful. He
might have been a world figure, but we do not even know his name.
Sane Words on Boom
A MERICA’S boom goes on. and so does the talk from both
™ the experts and the amateurs as to where it is leading us.
One expert recently heard from who offered the country
some eminently sound counsel was llenry C. Alexander, chair-
man of the board of J. P. Morgan and company, famed bank-
ing house.
Alexander spoke hopefully but hard-hcadedly about the
bright economic future in store for Americans if they follow
a careful course and avoid major mistakes.
Said Alexander in a New York speech:
“The best way to preserve confidence is to prevent it
from turning into overconfidence. Confidence is based on
the belief we can make things go right; overconfidence de-
>tni
ludes itself into believing that nothing can possibly go wrong.’
IIE feels we have real ground for confidence because the
country both produces and consumes dynamically. The
economy is constantly fueled by demand growing out of “our
people's insatiable appetite for better living and technology’s
inexhaustible capacity to provide it.”
But he thinks it comes dangerously close to overcon-
fidence to dwell so heavily as some do on our increase in
population as an almost automatic stabilizer in the years
ahead. It takes money and machines as well as men to pro-
duce growth
Nor must we confuse inflation with growth, in Alexander’s
view. It is risky to try to force growth along by satisfying
some special group or applying a dose of inflation here and
there.
“Such doses, for instance, as increased government spend-
ing, or tax cuts with a balanced budget, or wage increases
without increased productivity, or prolonged and expanded
government subsidies.”
T OOK at its long sleek lines, its
forward thrust, its tremend-
ous power, its deluxe interior, its
power steering and easy han-
dling. Its chrome trim glistens in
the sun and you swell with pride
at ownership. You stow your lug-
gage in the large compartment
Golf clubs, fishing rods, tackle
box, waders, creel, and a few
other oddments peculiar to
sportsmen. Maybe you include
your shotgun, shells, hunting
coat, and a pair of hunting boots.
You have a new car and are off
for a real vacation. Three other
buddies arc going along and you
are proud to have the car in the
crowd the others will be glad to
ride in.
And so in that magic hour be-
tween daylight and sun up four
fathers arc on their way, leaving
mother and the children at home.
You breakfast at a sportsman's
inn a hundred miles on your
way and the time spent getting
there seems like nothing. There
are other cars parked in front of
the inn, some new some old, but
none finer than yours. Inside are
vacationers, hunters, golfers, fish-
ers and tourists. Much howdy-
ing whereto, howfar andwhatfor.
Great variety but ail for plea-
sure.

QN the other hand, Alexander would not administer the
v "shock treatment" to the credit system in any effort to
check inflation.
“You may make credit dear, but never make it unavail-
able,” he said. “There is a diffcrnce between tight money
and no money. And for the moment money is dear enough
and tight enough.”
The banker thinks concern rather than alarm is the proper
attitude right now toward the rising level of private debt. He
believes it is bound to go still higher as the economy expands
further.
"We must watch carefully the rate at which debt grows,
especially from here on. That rate must not outrun increases
in productivity and income. Increased borrowing must be
matched by increased ability to repay. Otherwise we aren't
expanding the economy, we’re merely puffing it up.”
One can do no better than to pass these words on They
represent fundamental good sense. They reflect a spirit of
calm moderation and ought to be read as an antidote either
to overoptimism or gloom and panic. Let’s hope the men in
Washington can view the problem as sanely.

Vice Presidential Candidates
Turn Up Now on Every Corne
WASHINGTON - (NEA) - One
™ year in advance of the 1956
elections, there are 101 dark-horse
entrants in the vice-presidential
sweepstakes. This large number
was one of the big surprises re-
vealed in the poll of Washington
newspaper, magazine and radio
correspondents just concluded for
this column.
Fifty-six Republican names and
45 Democratic names were men-
tioned by newsmen accredited to
the Congressional press galleries.
The result is taken as indicative
of many things.
It’s a free country and anybody
can run for the vice-presidency
who has the ambition, self-esteem
or gall.
Also, politicians’ friends some-
times place them in embarrassing
predicaments by suggesting them
for jobs they haven’t a chance to
get.

Dan glanced toward the door.

ON SOME OF THE NOMINA-
TIONS, it was necessary to stop
end think for a moment, to identify
individuals. But in the interest of
narrowing down the field, it's in
order to run down the list.
Ten Republican governors were
mentioned as possibilities, as
against nine Democratic govern-
ors.
The Republicans—Herter, Mass.;
Knight, Calif.; Stratton, 111.; Lan-
glie, Wash.; Craig, Ind.; Joe Foss
the Marine hero, S. D.; Hall,
Kans.; McKeldin, Md.; Kohler,
Wis.; and Patterson, Ore.
The Democrats—Harriman, N.
Y.; Lausche, Ohio; Williams,
Mich.; Clement, Tenn.; Muskic,
Me.; Meyner, N. J.; Leader, Pa.;
Freeman, Minn.; and Happy Chan-
dler, the new governor-elect of
Kentucky.
The Democrats had only one ex-
governor suggested—Adlai E. Ste-
venson of 111., the overwhelming
choice of newsmen for the Demo-
cratic nomination.
Four Republican ex-governors
were offered: Dewey, N. Y.; Thorn-
ton, Colo.; Pyle, Ariz.; and Adams,
Vt., President Eisenhower's as-
sistant.
Attending the school of Catholic
action in Tonkawa over the week-
end were Barbara Joe Weaver, Lee
