NEW YORK (-With industrial
production stuck on dead center,
the financial and business world
warily watches today for a move
one way or the other.'
Blamed are the more cautious
buying of consumers in the face
of an abundance of goods and the
drop in stock market prices which
makes industry nervous.
True, retail sales run ahead of
last year, thanks to high levels '
of employment and personal in-
come — but due also to higher
prices accounting for much of the I
gain in dollar volume total.
The consumers, although saving
more than last year, are spending
at least part of their increase in
incomes in the stores and for
services. They just aren't spend-
ing enough of it on Industrial
products to get factory output
rising again.
The Federal Reserve Board
notes that what gain there was in
manufacturing during August was
due mostly to increased produc-
tion in the auto industry, a usual
thing as it stocks up before chang-
ing over to the new models.
The increase in bank loans to
business this month over August
is about a fourth what it was last
year —seen as an indication of
business caution.
The nervousness of industry
over those signs of a alow start
for fall business is shown in the

Flow Memorial Hospital Is
One Of Our Major Assets
Too often we take the better things of life for grant,
ed. A food-example is found right here in our own
backyard. Most of us take Flow Memorial Hospital
for granted, yet it has just been officially designated,
as onr of the best in the nation. ,
-- There are 562 hospitals in Texas, according to the ”
American Hospital Assn, listings. Only 20 of these
are fully accredited and one of these 20 is our own
Flow Memorial Hospital. --
Full accreditation comes only through action of a
joint board composed of representatives of the Am-
erican Medical Assn., the American Hospital Assn.,
the American College of Physicians and the Canadian
. Medical Assn.
'Approval means that our city-county hospital has
a competent, qualified medical staff, a well trained
nursing staff and administrative personnel, a respon-
sive governing body, a trained administrator and good
medical records, '
Congratulations are in order to the hospital’s ad-
ministration, the board of managers, the medical staff
and to others who have had apart in building the mod-
ern hospital
Work is expected to start in November on the $800,-
000 addition to the present hospital. When this con-
struction is completed in 1958, Denton County will
have even finer hospital service.
A well-equipped hospital is a basic asset for any
- community. In this respect Denton and Denton
' County are far ahead of neighboring cities of com-
. parable size.

By SAM DAWSON ,
NEW YORK UB — Making a
downtown area glamorous as well
as economically healthy is taking
on new urgency. There's a good
dollar and cents motive behind it
today. -
Competition with the suburban
shopping center and sharper rival-
ry between downtown districts is
sparking the idea.
Billions of dollars in real estate
values and retail sales are in-
volved in the day by day fight to
glamorize and protect the fame of
established business centers.
The Fifth Avenue Assn., founded
in New York in 1907, thinks it pays
off well. Merchants elsewhere
have consulted it when forming
their own associalios. I lists
similar plans in Los Angeles.
People like to be treated with courtesy and friendli-
ness.
That is certainly not an earth-shaking announce-
ment It represents the height of obviousness. Yet
the principle is sometimes overlooked or ignored. And
when that happens in the business world, the conse-
quences can be costly.
A while ago a chain store organization tested the
effectiveness of price as against friendliness in seek-
ing business. In one community, it ran hard-hitting
ads stressing savings, lower prices and outstanding
values. In another community, its ads stressed friend-
liness. In the first community, sales increased eight
per cent. In the second, they jumped a whopping 28
per cent—which indicates that people put much more
stress on friendliness than on price inducements.
Whether this is generally true no one can say with
certainty. But there is no doubt that the public at
large expects the best of treatment when it goes shop-
ping in the stores. And It gets that kind of treat-
ment or goes elsewhere. Successful retailers are vit-
ally concerned with the quality of their personnel,
and with the ability of salespeople and others to meet
the customers, intelligently fill their wants, and send
them away happy and satisfied. One grumpy, disin-
terested clerk can cost a store a huge amount of busi-
ness.
This brings up another point. Retailing offers splen-
did careers for young people these days. And they
are careers in which the warm human values are need-
ed, appreciated and rewarded

The kids buried Scrapper in the
back yard with full military
honors and the beating of a tin
pail drum. They tossed bright yel-
low dandelions in his grave and
two big steakbanes, and over it
erected a cross made from an
orange crate and wrote on it this
epitaph:
"To the Scrapper, a brave dog."
On warm afternoons Felicia
used to like to lie on the grave,
scratch in the dirt and sun her-
self lazily. One afternoon, two
years later, the children found her
there, calmly dead. So far as any
one could discover she was a vic-
tim of old age, lack of exercise,
and gout..
They buried her next to the
Scrapper after another grand ..
mournful funeral and inscribed

they have enough capacity to
meet immediate demands and
and those of the near future.
Others still wanting to build or
modernize plants are I struggling
with all the problems of tight'
money and some are putting off
decisions for awhile to await de-
velopments.
The Federal Reserve Board
puts industrial output for August
at 144 per cent of the 1947-49 base
level. This was the same as in
June and July and one percentage
point above the year-ago level.
The high point was 147 per cent,
set last December.
Many in industry had been
counting upon July being the low
point because of vacations and
other seasonal factors. They had
hoped for the upturn to start in
August. It may still blossom in
October when the auto industry
will be getting into full production
on its new models.
They are “not Communists,
but..4 They are "reformed” Reds
who protest their own allegiance,
but refuse to help the FBI expose
their co-conspirators. And that is
the only valid measure of conver-
sion.
Communist Daily Worker Editor
in-Chief John Gates says “mem-
bership is down 45 per cent from
last year."
The other day a long-time
Communist turned in his card in
New York. Joe Clark, and editor
of the Daily Worker, said he was
quitting the conspiracy. He wrote
a letter of resignation 25 hundreds
words long and the Dally Worker
prated it.
This is an unprecedented thing
for that Red sheet to do, but it
is not inconsistent. Read the fine
print. Clark says, "The hope I had
for the party died. The hope I
have for socialism remains as it
has for 21 years."
The same letter by which Clark
breaks with communism pledges
him unalterable to further social-
ism in the United States.
—Our preoccupation with “words"
repeatedly leads us astray in
"dealing with the Russians. They
keep us shadowboxing with the'
brand name “communism," when
actually our adversary is not a
name, but a philosophy. A "rel-
igion," if you please.
Whittaker Chambers has said.
"Communism is an atheist's sub-
stitute for religion."
And whether he belongs to the
■ Russian 'denomination” or the
Yugolsavian "denomination" or
the Socialist "denomination," it's
all the same religion!
They all espouse the supergov-
. ernment. The government is sup*

A tax can Actually coat the government money.
If you doubt this, a report made by Edward R.
Jelsma, director of the Interstate Commerce Commis-
sion’s Bureau of Transport Economics and Statistics, i
should interest you. According to him, the federal
three per cent excise tax on freight transportation (a
World War II emergency measure which is still on
- the books) cost the government $24 million in lost
revenues from the railroads alone during 1956.
Here’s how that happened. Last year, the govern-
ment collected $450 million from the freight excise
tax. However, the tax is deducted from income by
shippers as a business expense so the actual net re-
turn to the government was only $247,500,000.
The excise tax, Mr. Jelsma continues, has been in-
strumental in leading many shippers to use private
transportation, and this transportation is officially esti-
mated to have cost them $4,300,000,000 last year. Polls
show that, with repeal of the excise tax, the railroads
