pressures in Washington and
fancies himself as the one who
knows best what is good for
the country, forgetting or not
caring that he is supposed t:o
be the voice of the people
who elected him. He soons
learns it is not politically ;man will arise from the
expedient to be his own man. fows to lead us wisely.
Even when he remains unc-
orrupted, what can he do when
courts rule in favor of cri-
minal over victims, of law-
breakers over police, of de-
monstartors over the National
Guard?
What can the average
person do to protect his san-
ity except to pretend, even
to himself, that lie does not
care, that these conditions do
not exist? Regardless of whe-
re he stands on the war, he
could lose his grip on rea-
lity if he allowed himself to
be cut to pieces each time a
newscast is given.
How do I know this is
an explanation of the “apathy”
that afflicts us? Because it is
my own defence. I have to live
in foe world as it is, not
how I’d like it to be. To do
that, I must retain my san-
ity, and to retain my san-
ity, I must ignore many of the
suffering, wrongs and injus-
tices.
What can one do to chan-
ge conditions? I have written
my representative. I have v-
oted my protest by voting ag-
ainst every man in office, even
against those with no opponent,
all we all go to foe streets
and demonstrate? Shall we w-
ifodraw from reality with d-
rugs? Shall we begin burning
killing, bombing, wrecking, in
foe name of protest? God I
pray the number increases.
What more can one do? Wise-
ly, that is?
None of us knows the an-
Where are you vacationing
this summer?
Taking that long planned
trip to Europe? Or loading fish-
ing gear in the station wagon
and driving off to that spark-
ling lake deep in the woods?
Or renting a cottage near some
golden sandy beach? There are
dozens of different vacations
but for all of them, one theme
remains discouragingly the
same. The expense of vacation-
ing is slowly but surely climb-
ing. The cottage you rented last
year now costs a few hundred
dollars more! The motel you
stayed at overnight while mak-
ing that cross country trip last
year, now charges a higher
daily rate. Ditto for the motel’s
coffee shop and restaurant.
Even worms used for bait are
more expensive.
The higher vacationing costs
are more links in a chain which
has clamped our nation in a
very tight vise. Inflation is now
marching through the USA like
Sherman marched through
Georgia. It is rising at a 6%
rate and while this may not
strike the average person as
substantial, unchecked, will
double prices in about 12 years.
Hardly a pleasant thought to
mull over while waiting for the
fish to bite, but inflation erodes
the value of the dollar just as
surely as a hungry trout re-
sponds to a juicy fly and a per-
fect cast.
How much will it cost to va-
cation next year; five years
from now; a decade from to-
day? And will your income
keep pace with these inevitab-
ly climbing costs? Obviously,
the knowledgeable suburbanite
wants to stretch every dollar
without snapping it. Some try
speculating in the stock mar-
ket on so called “high fliers,”
very often investing fairly large
sums of money as casually as
buying an ice cream cone—!
without proper study or re- I
search. Others may go to the ;
other extreme, so cautious with
any extra money they do noth-
ing except keep it in modern
day versions of the cookie jar
such as non-interest bearing-
checking accounts.

But for millions of suburban- t
ites, there is a successful mich-
die way to make that extra
money grow for the future.
They invest in mutual funds.
Mutual funds, with a diver-
sity of investments and contin-
uous professional management,
have been among the fastest
growing financial services of-
fered to the American public.
Currently, more than 5 million
people have placed extra cap-
ital in mutual funds. The In-
vestment Company Institute,
national association of the mu-
tual fund industry, reports that
many suburbanites, and others
are often too busy to follow
the intricacies of the stock
market on a day to day basis.
But “following the market” is
the full time job for thousands
of highly skilled professional
fund money managers.
Due to these full time efforts,
performance of the funds has
been generally good. While the
favorable record of most mu-
tual funds does not, of course,
guarantee future success, it is
difficult to believe that fund
personnel, with their training,
experience and “feel” for the
market will not do better over
the long-term than the average
casual investor.
There are now more than
400 mutual funds from which
to choose, and the investor can
surely find one that fits his own
investment needs. Even though
you may be vacationing, away
from your job or business, in-
flation continues to work full
time, around the clock.
