Baby Goes Barefoot—With Shoes On!
Did you know that by the age of five, nearly 41% of all
American children have developed some sort of foot trouble?
That some 80% of adults walk around with one foot ailment or
another?
According to Dr. Simon J. Wikler, a distinguished Florida
podiatrist and author who has devoted most of his professional
life trying to prevent as well as cure foot problems, infant
shoes are the real culprits.
“Most children are born with
perfect feet,” says Dr. Wik
ler, “but then we put regular
shoes on them and the de
forming process is begun.”
Because such shoes force soft
infant bones to conform to un
natural shapes, depriving toes
of the freedom to exercise
and grow naturally, perma
nent damage is done that can
cause a lifetime of troubles.
It would be ideal if chil
dren could go barefoot. As
Dr. Wikler noted in his travels,
shoeless natives of other cul
tures never suffered from flat
feet. Since it is impossible
for children in a modern so
ciety to go barefoot, some
other solution is necessary.
Dr. Wikler devoted over
twelve years to this problem,
consulting eminent foot doc
tors, physicians, pediatricians,
and applying his principles to
his own patients. The result:
a revolutionary new shoe for
infants that virtually allows
the child to go barefoot with
his shoes on!
The Wikler Shoe, available
exclusively through Buster
Brown retailers, has a fan
shaped toe design that lets
baby’s toes wriggle, spread,
and grow without restriction.
forces Ihe growing foot into a
cramped position, making toes
helpless and puny without gir
ing them a chance to attain
their natural spread. The Wik
ler Shoe (right) for children
allows plenty of room for the
foot to grow without deform*
ing pressures on the toes.
It has soft leather uppers, un
lined for flexibility and cool
comfort, and a heel that clasps
the foot firmly without cramp
ing. There are no inside seams
to irritate or chafe sensitive
feet, no metal shanks to inter
fere with the crushable flexi
bility of the sole.
Dr. Wikler, who has just
published his book, “Take Off
Your Shoes and Walk”, says
that for children under four
this shoe should go far toward
eliminating, for many, a life
time of foot troubles.

U.S. C of C President
Wonders If JFK
Knows Wlial Makes
U.S. Business Tick
WASHINGTON M*) — A top
spokesman for the business com
munity says he wonders if the
Kennedy administration really un
derstands what makes American
business tick.
But the spokesman, President H.
Ladd Plumley of the U.S. Chamber
of Commerce, also told newsmen
that President Kennedy appears to
be trying to improve relations be
tween the White House and busi
nessmen.
Plumley conferred with the
President Friday, they had lunch
eon with newsmen. He told them:
“I am not sure that the adminis
tration fully recognizes that this
free enterprise system operates
... on the decisions which are
being made daily by thousands of
individuals,” rather than by gov
ernment steering.
What bothers businessmen,
Plumley said, is uncertainty. They
want conditions “predictable and
plottable so that they can plan
their own moves.”
He said businessmen are asking:
If economy is being steered by the
government today, in what di
rection will it be guided tomorrow?
As an example, he cited Ken
nedy’s commencement address at
Yale University last month in
which the President appeared to
be seeking a truce with the busi
ness community after the uproar
that followed his strong opposition
to a steel price increase.
Plumley said the President re
marked that deficit financing by
the government could not be toler
ated indefinitely, but also said that
deficits could serve as an economic
stimulant.
“It was left to the reader to de
cide what the position of the
President was under circumstances
of the present,” Plumley com
mented.

slightly more lumber than a Rus
sian, three times as much as a
Frenchman, four times as much as
an Englishman
