...automation scant; machinery can do little to speed up the output of the barber, the bartender, the cop, or the bureaucrat. Yet, in order to hold workers in a period of full employment, the service field has to. raise wages as industrial wages rise. And the result of higher wages without higher productivity is higher prices. "The trouble," concludes Dale, "is that our society, more than any other in all history, spends its money on non-things...
...after President Eisenhower's advisory committee on foreign aid handed in its report, another panel of experts sent him a second report clashing with the first on a sizzling issue: U.S. aid ' to neutral nations. The committee headed by Steelman Benjamin F. Fairless had unanimously urged "a higher priority" in aid programs for "countries which have joined in the collective-security system" (TIME, March 11). The 13-member International Development Advisory Board, chaired by Movieman Eric Johnston, unanimously recommended increased U.S. aid for "countries wishing to remain free of all military alliances." Both reports are likely...

Or he could place no higher than fourth. If shotputter Jim Doty can get off a toss similar to his winning throw in the Army meet, he, too, could pick up valuable points...
Potenially the most valuable unifying change is that requiring a full year introductory course, Social Relations 10, for all concentrators. This course, if operated at a higher level of intensity than the present introductory course, can save a great deal of repetition in later course work. The only apparent disadvantage in requiring this course is the probable reduction in the number of non-concentrators taking upper level courses in Social Relation...
...comparatively easy nature of most of the courses is partly explained by the newness and subsequent growing pains of the Department. But now that Social Relations has become more solidly entrenched, it is good to see more demanding courses, and higher standards for concentration. The change for honors candidates requiring six full courses, including a graduate course, will certainly decrease the number of concentrators in the field and send some of the less serious students back to other fields such as English and Government, previously regarded as the "gut" fields...
