Parkinson's Law states that
work is extended to fulfill the
time available to, complete it.
In modern business might we
say that man's desire is de-
veloped to surpass his ability
to satisfy it? •
I wonder if we might clas-
sify people according to the
parable of the Good Samaritan?
Let. us first consider the rob-
bers.
They undoubtedly felt that
what's yours is mine and I'll
take it. They found the "cer-
tain man" at -a disadvantage,
beat him up, took his posses-
sions and left him to live or die
as the case might be.
We don't have highway rob-
bers now but there is still some
of this element around in the
person of bank robbers or thugs
on a dark street, However there
are more refined ways of bring-
ing about the same results.
Interest rates are a subtle and
acceptable method. If you are
a farmer and have enough
security you can borrow cap-
ital at five percent. If your
security is a bit light you can
borrow from mortgage ;comp-
anies , at '71/2 percent. If you
are still less secure you can go
to finance companies and may
have to go to; 25 or 30 percent.
You won't get beaten up
physically but financially you
can be left destitute.
The second group is repre-
sented by the priest. I'm sure
this doesn't apply to our min-
isters or priests 'of the present
day but 'this type of person is
still around. He, has accumulat-
ed a good deal of wealth and
feels what's mine is mine and
I'll keep it. • He probably feels
that the Samaritan simply got
what was coming to 'him for
letting the robbers take him at
a disadvantage. While he does-
n't approve of the robbers he
probably does believe quite
strongly in survival of the
fittest.
The Levite is quite close to
the priest but he does have
some sympathy. He doe's look
at ,the injured man. He un-
doubtedly says, to himself, "Too
bad about that poor man. If I
could I'd like to help him but
I just don't have any spare
money and besides • I'm in a
hurry; After all I worked for
fry money and I'm going to
keep it."
The Priest and the Levite
represent 'the good respectable
people who pay their way and
provide for the needs of their
families.
Then comes the Samaritan.
He is the ordinary "Joe". He
hasn't too Much or too' little:
He gives the first aid accord-
ing to his ability. I'm quite
Sure 'the SaMaritan, didn't like
to walk but he walked and put
the stranger on a donkey: Ile
didn't have' a 'lot but he pre-
vided care for the needy. I
Wonder how Much the giving
of the ",two pence" lowered-
the Samaritan's standard of
living!

The project still lacks final
approval of 'the town and the
Department of Highways. Mr.
Ross said a recent traffic count
on 'the section designated for
widening showed am ;average of
3,600 cars used it each day.
Peale days reached a traffic
volume of 5,000 cars, and with-
in a few years, he said, 8,000

road. Included in the $322,000
cost of widening is provision of

where necessary.
large number of the very poor?
Can we have an extremely
rich nation unless there are
several poor nations?
We supposedly have taken a
step past extreme capitalism
and are moving toward social-
ism.
It seems to me that there is
a further step to be taken—co-
aperativisan. This is the spirit
practiced by the Samaritan. It
might even call for some- low-
ering of our so-called "standard
of living".
Just what is this "standard
of living?" Is it to be measur-
ed in terms of the accumula-
tion of possessions or in terms
of the welfare of men?
Let's say with the "Good
Samaritan"—"What's mine is
yours 'so I'll share it".
