In our capitalistic system, individuals or corporations decide how fast we will grow, and in what directions. In the socialist states, and by this we mean those who are under Communist party domination, the state plans how fast, and in what directions, all growth will be. This can be both good and bad. In nations noted for lagging behind, like Czarist Russia, great strides have been made, and eventually the country will reach its potential greatness, based on natural resources, water, climate, etc. Other nations, which ■ formerly had sounder private enterprise systems, have run into some interesting problems. Two made the headlines this past Sunday in the New York Times. One concerns a power shortage, and the other, goose livers. Now goose livers seem like an unlikely victim of state socialism, but even the Hungarian press admits this to be true. It seems that under private enterprise, when farmers had their own little rented or owned acreage, many farmers fattened geese; in 1939, there were 2,286,000 geese in Hungary, and from 880 to 1,100 pounds of goose livers were exported annually, mostly for such delicacies as the French pate de foie gras. Then came state solicalism. Small farms of several acres were incorporated into huge collective farms. Individual farm families were allowed only an acre for themselves. It takes more than an acre to raise fatted geese, and the number of geese had dropped to 864,000, with only 176-220 pounds of goose liver exported. , “* * Goose liver is a rather unimportant part of the economy, but it is mentioned to point up a problem of the socialized state. Another more serious one is that of electricity in Yugoslavia. Yugoslavia is a land of beautiful mountains an rivers. But it also suffers long dry spells. The latter were apparently not taken into consideration when the government when into a period Os expansion of the hydroelectric production, rather than coal-fueled stations. The cutback in electric production has put many out of work, although in a model socialist state (like a model capitalist state) there is no such thing as unemployment. State socialism has been pretty successful in states where capitalism never developed — like Russia and China. It has been markedly unsuccessful in former capitalist countries where capitalism was actually working. The theory and practice of socialism has modified capitalism, and vice versa. Much of the argument today between the Russian “revisionists” and the Chinese “Trotskyite dogmatists” is between the amount of change that should be made in modifying Communist theory to fit reality.

seniors Feb. 10 after school. Elaborating on such points as fees, entrance and residence applications, and scholarships, he managed to clarify the matters in many of his listeners’ minds. - D. H. 8. — Steve Bailey, a student in selling. set up an attractive and inviting display in the showcase last week. Since Steve had chosen candy sales as his project, he adorned the window with big boxes of Valentine candy in the traditional heart shaped containers. In a red and white background a slogan appeared proclaiming that, "Candy is dandy." — D. H. S. — With the ever-increasing tension which mounts at the close of the "Hoosier Hysteria" season, two pep club meetings wei*e held last week, one on Tuesday and the other on Thursday.

When the group left, several of the senior girls stayed behind to attend to those mysterious preparations which were revealed at the pef> rally last Friday, - D. H. S. — To better help the seniors in their adjustments, Mrs. Schnepf. one of the guidance counsellors for Decatur high school, administered a psychological test to the seniors last Thursday. Mr. Smith gave up the time from his psychology class for this test to be B given. — D. H. S. — I The Jackets routed the Beatles I with Raid last Thursday before Ea cheering throng of Jacket fans ; and one or two admirers of the * Beatles. Taking advantage of the going craze for the zany English singers, the cheerleaders of D. H. S. organized a pseudo-basket-ball game enacted by senior girls. Craig McEwan and Max Elliot, two illustrious members of the real Jacket basketball squad performed the duties of referees. Crowning this skit were the lovely actions of those gorgeous cheerleaders, Steve Hazelwood, Manuel Ybarra, Tom Macklin, and Buster Melchi, who demonstrated that their well-kown athletic prowess could also be directed toward the leading of the cheering bloc. Although the Beatles apparently had the better shooting record, the Jackets were able to wind up victorious by scoring a touchdown. With five seconds to go, and a score of 9904 in favor of the Jackets, the home team coach called time. When the Jackets returned to the floor, they held their secret weapon and were able, to force the Beatles out of the gym by spraying the area with insecticide. — D. H.
