A recently published mono-
graph entitled "From Guide-
posts to Guidelines to ?, by the
Council for Technological Ad-
vancement of the Machinery
and Allied Products Institute
points out that the most seri-
ous problem with the wage-
price guidepost approach is
that it appears inevitably to
lead us toward a system that
is incompatible with a free
market economy.
According to Richard Mac-
Nabb. MAPI Viee President,
and economist,, the reason for
this is twofold: (1) the gen-
eral guideposts cannot work
without serious distortions in
our economy unless full play
is given to the exceptions; (2)
however, if the number of ex-
ceptions that our complex
economy demands for purposes
of equity and efficiency are
granted, the guidepost system
inevitably will break down and
should we persist in maintain-
ing this arbitrary relationship,
bring on further intervention
by government. ,
He continued, that while in
prescribing a price mechanism
one need not go to the extreme
of Adam Smith's "invisible
hand," the guideposts bring us
much closer to the other ex-
treme of the marketplace di-
rected by the “visible hand" of
government.
“Through the lack of proper
monetary and fiscal restraints,
notably restraints on govern-
ment expenditures, the guide-
fine approach overlooks the
basic causes underlying the
present inflationary pressures.
Since prices and wages are
governed by formula rather
than by market forces, they
suppress competition with the
end result that the economy
takes on the characteristics of
one where prices and wages
are fixed by government auth-
ority. Intervention in the econ-
omy under whatever guise has
who were at the cross and who
displayed emotions of betrayal,
denial, hate, greed, cowardice,
and doubt. As she -tells this
part of the story, Sherry Webb,
Connie McClanahan, Lynn Orr,
Susan Burgess, and Sandra
Creel will portray these people
at the cross. , a
Following Gene's reading of
the poem, “They Sealed the
Stone; They Set the Watch,"
Gretchen will bring out the
positive traits of love, forgive-
ness, repentance, compassion,
and triumph. Girls portraying
those at the cross who had
these Christian traits will be
Sue Burkett, Lana Forehand,
Glenda Watkins, Janie Tucker,
and Sandra Nees. ,
Other poems to be included in
the program are "Easter,"
“There Is A Manon the Cross,”
“An Easter Carol," and "Pas-
que."
Brandy s stewart will present
a reading of a dialogue betweem
Juds’ mother and Jesus' mo-
ther.
Special music will include vo-
cal solos by Suzanne Collier,
Jan’a Hix, and Jana Edgar; a
piano solo by Nan Stockard;
and several numbers by the Y-
Teen chorus. During the pro-
gram the chorus, composed of
Y-Teen members, will sing,
"wounded for MB," “How Great
Thou Art,” and ’"He Arose.”
As students assemble for the
program, the Y-Teen chorus
will be singing “Fairest Lord
Jesus.” At the close of the pro-
gram the audience will join the
chorus in singing the first stan-
za of “The Old Rugged Cross."
The chorus will continue sing-
ing as students leave the audi-
torium.

programs are being planned by
Mrs. Lloyd McCloud, head

Agent Gives Tips
On Controlling
Plant Parasites
Most plants grown around the
home and in vegetable gardens
are subject to damage from
plant parasitic nematodes. The
most common type and perhaps
the most damaging is the root
knot nematode which causes
knots or galls on the plant's
roots. They can be controlled,
says County Agent L.M. Mc-
Carroll by the use of certain
chemicals and cultural prac-
tices.
Nematodes just don’t happen.
They are brought in on infested
transplants, in contaminated
soil or on equipment. They may
also be carried in water wash-
ing down a hillside.
It is easier to keep nema- '
todes away from the home
grounds than to control them
once they become established,
explains the county agent. Their
elimination i next to impossi-
ble, once they are present in
damaging numtiers.
Chemicals have been1, de-
veloped which will reduce ne-
matode populations and permit
the growing of a crop for a sea-
son. These chemicals are known
as nematocides and come in gas,
liquid or granular forms. The
county agent says the granular
form is usually more satisfac-
tory for use around the home
since they are safe to use and »
are not damaging tolmost plants.
Growers may fuyl these ma-
terials under such trade-mames
as Nematode Killer, Nema-X
or Nema-Kill, Ai one-pound can
will usually- treat about 120
linear feet of rdw space or 120
square feet in a block, says the
agent.
In the vegetable garden, the
material should pe applied in a
trench 6 to 8 inches deep and
immediately covered with sot.
Gardeners are reminded that
these materials are toxic to
plants of the onion family and
should not be used on rows
where these crops are to be
planted. Label instructions
should be carefully followed,
says the county agent.
When plants in the home land-
scape need treating, McCarroll
suggests punching holes or dig-
ging a trench around the plant's
base and applying the recom-
mended dosage. Follow with a
generous watering. Use the
chemicals at the start of the
growing season.
