...twice as much for handouts. For "surplus" in Rochester means any & all brands of designated foods, stocked and sold by the grocer in the usual way, at prevailing prices, which the U. S. Government has to pay when it redeems blue stamps. If Milo Perkins' plan works well enough to be spread over the U. S., its advantages will be that it balances Relief diets, stimulates the food trade, moves more farm produce through ordinary channels than FSCC could move through its artificial drains...
When he became Finance Minister, the Daladier Government was at the height of its unpopularity with the Left, and smart Rightist Paul Reynaud had nothing to lose by promoting drastic measures for which the Premier would be chiefly blamed. He outlined a "threeyear plan" for return to "a liberal-capitalist economy" by stimulating private industry. The 40-hour week, darling of former Premier Blum's Popular Front, was abolished. The ordinary budget (exclusive of emergency arms expenditures) was balanced by increasing direct and indirect taxes ($265,000,000 and slashing expenses, 40,000 surplus State Railway workers alone being...

...done, therefore, to nip the expansion of tutorial specialization before it distorts President Lowell's "mirror" any more. One possible solution would be the shuffling around of all the tutors now living in Houses so as to produce a more nearly rounded tutorial staff in each House. If this plan is objectionable on the ground that tutors, like baseball players, don't ordinarily like to leave their home club, then some other solution must be found. This might amount to filling vacancies which may occur from now on with tutors in fields not well-represented in the various Houses...
