MULTIPLIED CONFUSION. It
is lH>com'ng increasingly difficult
for an employer to know what ta
do, or how to keep his records.
For example, in order to prevent
iob discrimination, Massachusetts
has a law which bars the keeping
of employment records as to race
and color, the theory being that
keeping of such records en race,
color and religion is, in itself,
diserinrnatory and should he
barred Thee is a federal ord "-
requiring that firnis seiltin^ fetl-
.tfil cot't-ncts must provide «nial-
ity in ii b ep¡x)rtun¡t:es. ard to
orovidc a means f r d •'e-m rv-nr

t is expected that th• s v il be

, gross. There are two proposals
under consideration One of them
would undertake to write into táie
Constitution detailed methods de-
signed to meet any future cm-
tingcncy in the event a president
is unable to discharge h!s dut'es.
The other proposal weald give
Congress the needed power to
act. If the latter is o hi* on. Con-
gress would surely enact methods
very similar to the dot; iled pro-
posals in the former. It is doubt-
ful that Congress can write an
amendment that would cover ev-
ery possible contingency, in which
event, shou'd an uncovered con-
tingency arise. Congress would bo
tillable to act. In a crisis, this
would be most serious, because
we would be immediately faced
with the drawn out process of
another amendment. There should
never be a vacancy in the Presi-
d< :icy, whether by death, disabil-
ity, or otherwise; we need to
make sure that there will always
he a pres'dont or an aet'ng presi-
dent to discharge executive dut-
ies.
WE WILL SOON HAVE EXIST
FO AS A NATION FOR ?0T
YEARS. Many years ago a wise
man made an observation that is
be'r ■ rop'intrd more often as we
appr rich the two century nro'k of
oip existence as a nation. These
: wi rds are worthy of review:
"The average age ol the world'o
■• "at civilizations has been 200
••"•os r.a"h one has p-o^resried
;n tlvs order; from Irndagc to
p'ri'ual faith; spiritual faith to
grent ccurage; cotrage to liberty;
liberty to abundance; abundance
to selfishness; selfishness to com-
placency; complacency to apathy;
apathy to dependency; depend-
ency back to bondage.
Once selfishness is reached, the
pace progressively quickens. Pick
out the place In the circle you
feel we have approached. In 12
years, the United States will be
200 years old.
