Consider The Turtle
"Consider the turtle. He makes progress only when
his neck is  out."
Isn't that a good slogan? What we need today is a
few people who will stick their neck out for principle.
Who won't sit idly by wnen a wrong needs to be righted.
Who won't keep still when a mis-statement is made. Who
won't be so everlastingly trying to get in with people,
that they lose whatever individuality  they  may  possess.
Of course it takes a lot of courage to stick your
neck out for the right. Particularly if the right isn't
popular. One of the truest things Woodrow Wiison ever
said was "It is just as hard to do your duty when men
are sneering at you, as when they're shooting at you."
It is only human to want people to like you — so you
agree with them. But did you ever stop to think that
the one person you never can get away from is yourself?
And if you don't live up to yourself, how can you have
any liking for yourself?
We are a nation because a few men were willing to
stick their necks out for freedom. We settled a continent
because hundreds more were willing to stick their necks
out and brave untold hardships to establish a better way
of life for their children. We have grown and prospered
because thousands more were willing to stick their necks
out and fight for schools for children, for better living
conditions, for decent housing, for hospitals - what of
those who stuck their necks out and died in the cause
of research? We fought a Civil War for the rights of
men to be free.
Is it tod much to ask that each of us as individuals
stick our necks out for the right as we see it?
Consider the turtle. Why did he stick his neck out?
So that he could see where he was going.
The man who sticks his neck out for right is following
a ideal. He has a goal and he is heading toward it —
not taking devious pathways that lead into' the morasses
of compromise, or a blank wall of indifference. A man
with the courage to stick his neck out is a man of faith.
He knows that the best way out of a difficulty is straight
through   it.
Never have we needed such men more. Will you stick
your neck out for right?
Unified Space Work
A compromise settlement has been cynically defined
as one which satisfies neither of the parties involved.
This comes to mind in connection with President Eisenhower's decision to turn over part of the Army's space
research facilities to the recently created National Aeronautics and Space Administration.
The NASA had requested that the Army space research program be handed over to it, lock, stock and
barrel. The Army had objected vociferously on tne
grounds that this would hamper national defense. Now
the Army will be allowed to keep its ballistics missile
agency at Huntsville, Ala., while NASA gets control of
the jet propulsion laboratory at Pasadena, Califomia.
Though neither the space agency nor the Army is
entirely pleased with the compromise, indications are that
NASA is getting and will continue to get the better of
the bargain. A long-range look at national space development needs suggests that this is as it should be.
Up to now, space research and development has been
done by both Army and Air Force. The programs have
not been well co-ordinated, and some duplication of effort
has resulted. One reason for creating the National Aeronautics and Space Administration was to end such diversity, to bring all federal projects in this area under one
guiding agency.
From now on, over-all 'National priorities established
by the NASA are to determine which projects shall be
most diligently pursued. Full ti-fyhsition to Such a system
will take ahwile, but it is coming. The public interest will
be served by the gradual transfer of space development
to the space agency.

Neu) Year's GhafgeY
The trouble with prancing, into the new year on a
spirited white charger named High Resolve is that the
aforesaid white charger is notoriously unsure of foot. He
is a steed that makes a splendid picture, in the early days
of the year, but when the road becomes rocky old High
Resolve often stumbles and dumps his rider.
Should one, therefore, forego resolutions for fear they
won't be kept? Not a bit of it. Whether or not a man
gets through the year without coming a cropper on this
resolution.. or that, there is virtue in resolving t6 dc
better.
For one thing, most of us do hot take stock of oui
lives often enough. We go bumbling along a,s best we cai
our eyes focused on the road barely ahead of our feel
It is good to stop, every once in awhile, for a look back
and a look at the rdad that lies ahead.
There is nothing very exceptional about the first
day of the new year. The sun rises and sets as usual;
joy and sorrow are meted out to human beings m about
the normal proportions; the likelihood of significant events
is not greater and no less than on other days. But the
arrival of January 1 does provide a first-rate occasion to
assess past failings  and make good resolutions for  the
future. So hop onto old High Resolve, if you haven't al-. county Legal "AidSocVety since
ready-done so, and be off J that agency's organization.
From Governor of Ohio C.

-   —   —    • •" Stated   Mr.   Hoover,
"We expect the general improvement in business which became apparent late in 1958 to
continue this year at the same
or  a  slightly   higher level.
"We are looking forward to
even greater gains in 1960 and
thereafter when the full effects
of the growt hof out nation and
our increasingly high standard
of living will  be felt.
"The last three months of 1958
were good from the standpoint
of vacuum cleaner sales. We expect to show a higher volume
of cleaner sales than in 1957,
which was  a  record  year.
"An important decision was
the start of a program of plant
expansion at North Canton. The
new building, which will be completed next spring, will add 40,
000 square feet of production
area to our facilities.
"Last year we made a ■concerted effort toward conservation and better use of materials,
better production methods, greater efficiency and new product
development.
"These will continue to be important objectives this year because of increased competition,
the inflationary trend, [pressure
on prices  and other factors.
"We start the year, with a
stronger selling, organization as
the result of assigning responsibility for our special products
line of floor polishers, electric
irons and other appliances to
our regular sales organization.
, "We feel this will secure us a
greater share of the appliance
market. Our vacuum cleaner
sales have shown a steady
growth in the last four years."
