But here and there are some dissenting voices. And here and there are some more hopeful sta tistics. Loudest of the optimistic voices are in the stock market. For some time now they have been forecasting a return to better times.

Rising stock prices have gone counter to the statistics. Often they have done this near the end of a recession. Today's strong market tends to ignore the widespread drop in cor porate earnings.

Senator Elated Over Refusal To Upset Conviction WASHINGTON (AP)-Sen.

John L. McClellan, Tuesday hailed the Supreme Court refusal to review the conviction of Ohio Teamster Union leader William Presser for contempt of Congress.

It is the challenge and responsibil ity of the community to see that these men and women who are physically disabled can successfully adjust their new way of living to benefit both the entire com munity and the specific individuals involved. The challenge is a great one, and in order for it to be met success fully, every person must do his part. Although everyone is not in the position to personally hire a handicapped worker, he can use his influence to great effect many times.

It is truly unfortunate, but many people feel that a person who has been left physically handicapped is inferior to the average man. How wrong they are Any man who has employed a physically handicapped worker knows that this is entirely incorrect People who are physically handicapped are many times superior in their work than the average Worker. This is a fact. It is true because the physically handicapped worker knows that he has certain limitations and he strives to overcome these, and uses his other capabilities to their est measure. How can the community meet this challenge and raise the handicapped worker to the level in so ciety in which he belongs? It is not really difficult It will take a united effort by all concerned, but its re wards will be many.

Every com munity should use all possible means of communication with its residents to promote the hiring of physically handicapped workers. Easily Reached It is fortunate that we live in an age in which communication is so easily achieved. Television, ra dio, and newspapers reach the pub lic so easily. They could be, and right now are successfully used to wake people up to the great waste of human talents that is taking place. of these media can be used to great effectiveness, but it will still be up to the em ployers themselves to do the hir ing.

They are not interested in other people say. They want to see the proof. They have businesses to run and understandably they are primarily concerned with the ways they are run and the profits achieved. Therefore it is up to the handicapped worker himself to do the convincing with the help and backing of the community. I'll believe it when I see if is a popular quotation and it especially applies to this problem.

When a man gets the tools and training to do a job, the employer will be able to see it and will be pleased with what he sees. For he will see a man who, although he has a physical handicap, rises above it and proves himself to be a productive and useful member of any business or industry. The community can help this worker by supplying the tools and the training needed by the disabled man and woman. Today in a large number of cities and towns there are such programs in operation. Through these programs the handi capped workers are taught again to lead the lives which they pre viously led.

They shed self-pity and are made to realize that they can regain their rightful place in the community which they lived Given Tools Workers are given tools with which they can learn new trades or perfect their old ones. Many times new methods are used to perform a job that would otherwise have been impossible because of a physical handicap. After the tools are received the training begins. Very often a work er must learn to use a new and, 'to him, a strange part of his body to perform a simple everyday task, This is not easy. It requires pa tience on the part both of the teacher and the student.

The handi- caDDed worker Is in a real sense, back to school again. He Is being taught how to make the most of himself and achieve success in the in or no be so or is He to we as as up set ed be ly of world. This can not be done over night. Beside the physical prob lems involved, there are also many menial adjustments to cope with. After the tools and training have been mastered, the handicapped worker is ready to take his place the life of the community.

But will the community be ready for mm 7 will it receive him warmly and help him readjust successfully win it have pity for him, but job? It isn't fair to these neonle to shunned when they have worked earnestly and with such dedication, to overcome their handicaps And it is not fair to the tax-paying citizens, the community, the state, and the nation. Won't Waste Talents We can not afford to waste pre cious talents. If we are to con tinue as a great nation, we must make full use of all the potential abilities every man has. It does not matter if a man has two legs none. What matters is spirit and the desire to be great That what built this nation into a major world power.

A handicapped man is just like any other. He wants to achieve success in his chosen profession. wants to be able to support his family by himself, and he wants be recognized as a human being with the dignity every man pos sesses. Hiring the handicapped is good business. For the road of life is a long and difficult one, and whether run down it, or walk it at a slower pace, we will all eventually come to the same end.

It is our duty to see that the handicapped are able to make that journey a successful and profitable one. That is the challenge we all face.

Ask Federal Refund On Engineering Loan WARREN, Ohio (AP) The city will seek a possible refund from federal authorities of $75,000 pay-l ment made in settling a 1947 engi neering loan.

The city contended when it made the payment it should not repay the loan because it did not use the original plans.
