...original problems for themselves through their philosophy of maximizing production and sales. Henry Ford's obsession with increasing worker productivity evolved into a belief in the right of management to treat their workers as machines. Roths child points out that auto firms still try to increase worker output by applying Taylorist techniques (which include the impersonal time-motion studies) to industrial work. The results are non-wage-related strikes, absenteeism, and sabotage--all counter-productive...
...nation's real output of goods and services has declined for the past nine months; the drop is expected to continue at least until mid-1975, thus marking one of the longest slides since the Great Depression. Last week, with the election over, the White House ended its verbal contortions and permitted Presidential Press Secretary Ron Nessen to concede what most non-Government experts already knew: the U.S. is now in a recession.

...Government experts, Donald Oilman and J. Murray Mitchell Jr., argue that it may only be a random fluctuation, rather than part of any fixed cycle. In fact until a few years ago, many scientists suspected that the earth would heat up, largely because of mankind's increasing output of carbon dioxide. A byproduct of fossil-fuel burning, the gas lets sunlight pass down through the atmosphere but prevents the escape of infra-red heat waves that are radiated from the earth's surface. Thus the gas adds to the planet's heat store...
