The great thinkers of our time
are divided on the question of
wheie lies the salvation of the
world. One group says that civili-
zation will perish or progress de-
pending on the scientific advances
we make and the manner in which
those advances are controlled and
used. These aie the fellows who
point to Sputnik, atom bombs and
guided missiles as evidence that
our world of tomorrow will be the
pawn of science.
The other group of great think-
ers say chat the future of Earth
rests in the minds of men, and that
any foice capable of winning the
minds of men will be the force
which ultimately shapes our des-
tiny.
There is a basic difference in the
two theories The scientific idea
simply believes that new inven-
tions and discoveries Will shape
the course of our future, and that
fundamentally, we will be forced
to confonn with conditions as they
come This is the thinking of the
fatalists, of those who believe that
a thing is going to happen and
there's nothing that can be done
about it. I do not subscribe to this
belief.
The idea about winning the
minds of men appeals to me, for it
is the one that hokls the most for
all of us. It permits us to enjoy
the many advantages science will
give us, yet it places a conscion-
able limit upon the extent to and
manner in which the implements of
science will be used. It allows un-
restricted development yet it says
that the minds of men will be the
final altar of judgment as to the
use of any and all developments.
I'm all for winning the minds of
men, and I'm confident that this
course is the only constructive path
for us to fellow. But how to go
about winning the minds of men
is a question to which I have not
the answer. In science, mathe-
matics, etc.. the (actors are con-
stant. Two parts of hydrogen and
one part of oxygen make water.
This space pt'chased b/ Lone Star Steel Company for the purpose of
informing the gereral public about the policies, news and views of the
"The Way I See It" will be a weekly feature of this newspaper.
nothing more, nothing less. If you
mix two parts of hydrogen with
a part ot sulphur and four parts
of oxygen, you're bound to get
sulphuric acid. Science and mathe-
matics are that exact. Once you
get the formula, it remains the
same ever after.
I know of no such exact formula
for winning a man's mind. I have
learned this, however, and events
of the past few weeks bear me out,
that before you can begin winning
a man s mind, you've got to get
him to listen to you. I'm disap-
pointed that so many members of
oui family simply refuse to listen.
I1 can'i be critical of the man who,
having heard both sides of a story,
refuses to believe one or neither
side. That is his right, his privilege
to believe what he wants to. But
what can you say about the fel-
low who simply won't listen! May-
be he's like the fellow who stood
on the railroad track looking north,
and only because he WOULDN'T
turn afound and look south, didn't
know that a freight train was
about to make an awful mess!
The winning of the minds of men
is impoitant, but the way I see it,
the ability to get men to listen is"
more important. It works both
ways, too, and to get closer to
home ana further away from the
orbit of Sputnik, our mann«*ement
is going to be better lis' rs in
the future. We're not goi to re-
fuge to listen, if we ever have,
and I'm sure that if every member
of our great Lone Star family
adopts the same idea our future
will be brighter and certainly less
troublesome than it has been in
recent times.
There used to be a eoffee sales-
man over in Louisiana who ped-
dled a whole heck of a lot of coffee
over the radio. He used to open
his program with a crunchy voice
that said. "Hello, world." He'd tell
a few stories, sell his coffee, and
sign off with a question: "Are ya
listenin'?"
That s a good note to sign off
here — Are you listening? I am!
