LIVING-ROOM SQUAT
Television is developing a race of
sitters—a vast, immovable popula-
tion of living-room squatters, as it
were. In all areas of the country
where video has come into play,
great masses of people are “soi-
lin' '* glued around the set, absorbed
and silent, neglecting small talks,
books, papers and even the racing
results.

President Truman, at 85. attri-
butes it to the fact, “I worked hard
all my life and never had any time
to get into mischief.” That is clear-
ly overlooking the fact that he de-
liberately ran for re-election to the
presidency, it seems to us.
Those Ford cars are of new de-
sign, but the strike comes in the
same old shape at both ends and

The decline in conversation at

has become alarming. Guests hard-

of words.

The answer to “Shall we go out
somewhere tonight” is "Why?”
People used to leave the apartment
to kill boredom and seek some di-
version. They now accomplish th«
same objectives with an “aerial
stack” and a “booster.”

There's a prize fight, a wrestling

ment on the video tonight!
All Ara Branded
The housing and slum clearance
bill, federal aid to education bill,
the bill for compulsory health in-
surance, expansion of social secu-
rity laws, the various proposals to
create river valley authorities, any
bill which would provide for a fed-
eral grant-in-aid to the states, the
Brannan agricultural program and
numerous other measures ... all
have been branded as definitely
socialistic in nature by one or more
of the large organizations which
maintain lobbies here to influence
legislation.
Even our farm cooperatives have
been branded with the socialistic
label. It has come to the point that
every so-called liberal piece of
legislation which comes before con-
gress is being measured by the
socialist yardstick. Of course there
are as many definitions for the
word “liberal” as there are writ-
ers, but as this reporter views it,
liberal legislation is any measure
which has for its objective the elim-
ination of any inequalities or tribu-
lations of any great mass of the
people through federal help
money or regulatory control.

Socialism Defined
The dictionary says socialism is
a reconstruction of society on the
basis of cooperation of labor and
community of property: or govern-
ment control of economic activities
so that competition will give way to
cooperation and the rewards of
labor be equally apportioned. That
is the orthodox Marx brand of
socialism, but the modern or gar-
den variety of socialism appears to
be content with a more adequate
distribution of wealth through so-
cial reforms by political agencies.
They want nationalization of such
resources as railroads, mines and
other properties, but do not advo-
cate abolition of the profit system
nor the right to own private prop-
erty.

The old man doesn’t go down
to the store for the papers or a
cigar. Mom cuts the cinema.
It isn’t because television Is all
sheer entertainment. In fact,
it has been rather trying, often
downright annoying. Video is
still in the baby stage. It
doesn’t look like an extra smart
kid. Rut there is such a diver-
sity of attractions on so many
programs over so many chan-
nels that there is a fascination
for millions in it, good or bad.

So many more thrillers, playlets,
vaudeville sketches, hockey games,
tights, wrestling bouts, debates,
concerts, newreels, soap operas,
comedians, tragedians, actors,
dancers, scientists, clowns and pup-
pets come zooming into the old
homestead that the audience at
least gets action. The reactions are
curious. We know one addict who
says, “It’s so bad that it's absorb-
ing." Another demands, with more
enthusiasm, “Show me another
medium through which I can get
a hockey game, a ski tournament,
a forum, a circus, a Broadway
show, a couple of westerns, a book
review and a carload of miscel-
laneous entertainers and celebri-
ties without getting out of my

As late as 1936 the Socialist par-

health program for adequate medi-
cal aid financed by taxation; a
30-hour week; creation of a federal
marketing agency for purchase and

Men and women who eould
take their regular radio or let
It alone have been known to go
nuts over television. The busi-
ness of operating the various
dials to bring in the entertain-
ment gives them the feeling of
being producers, stage direc-
tors, dramatie coaches, vaude-
• vine kibitzers ond movie pro-
moters. They are never satis-
fied. They are always monkey-
ing with the dials, trying to
achieve the perfect show.

The American public is getting
more and more amusement-mad
and it looks as if books, magazines
and newspapers may have to go all
out for showmanship. Man's house
used to be his castle; it is now his
fight arena, his ball park, his
theater, his concert hall, his infor-
mation bureau and his personal
clambake.

We have even discovered a fel-
low who finds some commercials
attractive on television. He hated
commercials on the radio, but a
close-up photograph of a mince pie,
a layer cake, a stack of wheaties, _
a bubbling glass of beer or a mJ1 .Jong ikd'rancid?
whipping up a dinner on a cooking
program intrigues him. He gets
sore if a plate of frankfurters and
beans doesn’t screen well or if a
display of gelatins is out of focus.
His chief interest in all products
seems to be their degree of screen
clarity.

People Lead Cenfreu
MS A USUAL THING folks out in
** the home towns and rural com-
munities of our country are ahead
of congress and the politicians here
in Washington in their thinking on
what is good for, or what is best
for our country in the matter of
national legislation.
As a rule the measures before
congress are merely translations
of the thought and action of the
people themselves. And Washing-
twi is simply the mirror which re-
flects the will of a majority of the
people.
There is a definite trend here
in Washington however, which
your Home Town Reporter is
not attempting to interpret. I
am going to ask for an inter-
pretation from the grassroots
on this trend which leads to the
question—“Are we moving to-
ward a socialistic national gov-
ernment in this country?” So
if you trill, please write me a
letter giving me your thoughts
on the question.
Perhaps I am too close to the for-
est to see the trees, but my mail is
flooded every day with publicity,
brochures, pamphlets and just
plain propaganda seeking to brand
every liberal piece of legislation
before congress as "socialistic.”

will say, so here’s the recipe for
an excellent one:

4 teaspoon^ baking powder
V4 teaspoon salt
1 tablespoon sugar
1/3 eup butter
1 egg, beaten
Sift together dry ingredients.
Work in butter with a fork. Add
milk, mixed with egg and blend to-
gether with flour mixture to make
a soft dough. Turn out on floured
board and divide dough into two
parts. Pat each part, roll out and
shape into a buttered round tin.
Or, cut with biscuit cutter to make
individual cakes. Bake 12 minutes
in a hot (450*) oven. To serve, split
while hot, butter and spread one
quart of cleaned and sweetened
strawberries. Top with whipped
cream or serve plain or with thick
cream from a pitcher.
Here’s a frozen strawberry des-
sert which makes a good dessert
for warm evenings:
Slices of cake which have be-
come e little stale may also be
topped with sweetened berries for
a simple, economical dessert.
A bowl or a basket of assorted
fruits and berries makes a beau-
tiful dessert for a porch supper
be it family or party.
Pieces of fresh pineapple, com-
bined with fresh whole berries and
sliced bananas form the basis of a
nice dessert fruit cup.
Fresh currants, sugared and
chilled make a nice dessert duo
with fresh rad raspberries.

Although anyway you view it
socialism does not fit into the
American system of free competi-
tion and individual freedoms, the
question nrises-does any reform ad-
vocated by the Socialist party be-
come socialistic in fact? For in-
stance as far back as 1908 the
Socialist party platform advocated
conservation and development of
natural resources; scientific re-
forestation; storage of flood waters
and utilization of water power; es-
tablishment of minimum wage
scales; five and one-half-day week;
old age pensions and survivors in-
surance; a graduated income tax;
equal suffrage; direct primary;
vocational education; a separate
labor department and conservation
of public health and establishment
of an independent health bureau.
These reforms are in the law today.
Are they socialistic?
Address Given
This reporter believes, however,
that a measuring stick should be
whether or not, you as a citizen
have lost or may lose your individ-
ual freedoms guaranteed you by
the constitution and the bill of
rights; whether controls by the gov-
ernment to keep employment on
the farms and factories up and
prices down are socialistic; wheth-
er taxation plays such a role in
your economy as to become un-
bearably oppressive.
So let’s hear what the folks in the
home towns think of this subject:
Is the government moving towards
socialism? Write me, if you will—
