The A. B. C, of Capitalist Profit. HE essential chdfacter of capital- ist exploitation, or in other words the nature of capitalist profit, must be explained clearly, and in a man- ner easily comprehensible, in the the- oretical material at the disposal.of Communist agitation and propaganda, Until we have such an explanation constantly at hand, and until we have learnt to make it known everywhere, the last hour of reformism will not have struck in the labor movement. Sometimes it seems as if this aspect of: Marxist enlightenment has been placed too much in the background since the labor movement has become older. Are not these things long fam- iliar? We forget that young prole- tarians are joining the movement every day, and that these have: still to learn this A. B. C. of economic Marxism. Its theoretical substantion never becomes superfluous, tho the history and literature of the labor movement have already thrown every possible light on, the problem, If we further remember that new economic phenomena are replacing those of the older theoretical concep- tion, rendering a certain adaption of our former agitative formulas neces- sary, it becomes the more comprehen- sible that an increasing aversion is felt against theoretical generaliza- tions. Such generalizations are one of, the causes of the regrettable ten- acity with which reformism is rooted in the proletariat. And reformism fs our most dangerous and obstinate op- ponent. Capitalism would have been overthrown long since if reformtsm had not taken it under its protective wings of economic illusions, and thus prevented great masses of the prole- tariat from joining the ‘revolutionary class war. Reformism does not re- cognize capitalism itself as the ene- my, but merely protests against cer- tain of the regrettable shady sides and excrescences of capitalism. Re- formism is willing enough to have these removed with the aid of heav- en: Higher wages, shorter working isours—these are demands which may be put forward within the confines of the eapitalist system, without attack- ing the system itself. Appeals are lade. to the “short-sighted” or to the “socially far-seeing” employer, and the latter is shown that even higher will be the reward.of his re- obligingness. Wages and ofit are not regarded as the ex- treme poles of antagonism, but are made-—to appear as if derived from éntirely different sources. But if no afifagonism exists here, then no class antagonism exists at all!) Thus we arrive’at the theoretical substantia- tion f civil peace and joint action be- tweéw capital and labor. It fsGn urgent necessity to oppose econdHilé shallowness of this kind by a ‘pettéttly clear conception of the nature “of capital income and labor income! . Following Marx with the utmost closétiess, we shall endeavor to draw thé*fundamental outline of the source fi | Of ‘profit. THE DAILY WORKER WwW? do best to begin ‘Wit the form- ula of the’ circulattbm bf capital; the capitalist buys with money (M); raw materials, machfhes*and labor power for the productidh of commodi- ties (C), and sells thesé»commodities for which he obtains midre)money, in which is contained the¢surplus value (M-|-S). This process may be repre- sented by the following formula: M—C—M-/-S. This is the journey made by money to capital. For money is not capital itself; it is solely the money which passes thru the process to surplus money which becomes capital, “a value breeding surplus value.” The whole of the decisive fundamental sources of profit must be, demonstrated by this capital formula: M—C—M4:8, M—C is an act of purghase, the pur- chase of all the prerequisites neces- sary to production: the purchase of means of production (raw and auxi- lary materials, machinés, etc.) and of living labor power. W! ether we are concerned with purchase or with ex- change, in both Cases equal values only. are offered for ome another, or it is simply a matter oftcheating or of usury. We here mean™cheuting” the underpayment of goods (the seller of the goods does nots receive their equivalent), By “usury weemean the overvalued price of goods (the buyer does not receive the equivalent of the purchase »price). | Marx;assumes that equal values are exchanged. He does this for the purpose of ¢elearly ex- posing the, actual charaeter,of capital- ist (industrial) profit, which cannot be said to be based in general on any trickery in trade. The development of capitalism during the age of “free competition” tended .obvionsly to the increasing exclusions of deceptible Maneuvers and trickery in trade. M—C opposes the producer of goods, or his selling agent, who may of course as succh be an in- dependent merchant, to the future produccer of goods. It ig clear that we cannot assume the money owner—the buyer, who, will later on ,be “seller” again—to be in possession from the beginning of an omen cendancy placing him in a position to cheat the commodity owner (the ‘sellé), Bo there is the seller pf the com- modities known aselabor power. He has no capital at ‘hig: disposal. On the cémtrary, his absorute lack of means, his proletarian yoyefty, force him to the constant sale of the sole possession left to him, his only commodity, his labor power, If we add to this the fact that in the course of capitalist deyelopment the proletariat has incre: .jn-numbers far exceeding the total, demand for workers, 80,1 , the. ‘fiidustrial re- serve army” (the army, of the uwnem- ployed) hangs like a.

As soon as this is not the case, as soon as his real wages (expressed ‘in the actual commodities purchasable with the wages) sink, then the pay- ment has become an underpayment. The worker is cheated of his wages. Wherever there is impoverishment, there the cap‘talist gains his profit by cheating. Theré is no doubt that this particular source of profit has again increased to a frightful extent of late. During the period of the decline of capitalism’ we may observe the stage of “absolute impoverishment” as clear- ly as we observed during the honey- moon days of capitalism, when it was first putting ifs household in order, We must remember the words of the Communist Manifesto (1848): “The laborer becomes the pauper, and pauperism increases even more rapidly than population and wealth,” 'HE profit thus swindled out of the workers could be pressed out of the capitalists again to a certain ex- tent by means of a comprehensive, energetic and purposeful trade union struggle. If only the workers were fighters—and not social democrats! On the other hand, the gradual lower- ing of the proletarian standard of life is an essential part of capitalist de- velopment, and is only retarded tem, porarily, and for certain categories of. the proletariat, during periods of rapid and greatly increased economic prosperity. Taken all in all, profit gained by cheating is also inevitable as part of the development of capital- ism. Let us observe the process,” by which the profit, peculiarly character- istic of capitalism, the “surplus value” is produced. In doing so we set aside for the moment every other source of profit. The capitalist may have paid for the labor power at its “full value.” The capitalist may not have earned any special profit onthe sale of com- modities. ‘He may buy and sell every- thing at its real value, without trick- ery or cheating. A capitalist with a stainless white waistcoat! Can he possibly earn any profit? Of course he can. But this profit is so deeply embedded in the nature of tne capital- ist method of production that the naive spectator does not observe it at all; it is a profit forming the normal life of capitalism, it is the backbone of all capitalist profit. It might be designated as the “normal profit” of the capitalist’ to distinguish it from the strongly contrasting ch@ated profit or from the monstrous ““sury profit” with which we shall deal later. This is the profit which Marx called the surplus value, and to the elucidation of which he devoted the greater part of his economic researches. In this place we can only deal as In the Fire of Civil War in Soviet Russiz “Do not make any fuss, darling; there is a utensil in the corner.” The Farewell. SoLonDN'S Voice was sorrowful, “It is not,for my sake, Vera, but for yours. I am sorry for the life you have to lead. Your life could have been so beautiful.” “Darling, it is beautiful even now. And there is even happiness—happi- hess in the struggle and happiness in our personal life.” He pressed Vera's hand gratefully. “Darling!” In the evening she cut off her thick, flaxen plait. “Comrades, those who come out of this alive, please take this to my mother.” N the night loud steps were heard ‘in the prison passage. The heavy bolts of the cell door were pushed back. The prison gov- ernor had a list of names in his hands. “Solomon Lobovsky, Alexei Petruch- ge Nid Gnevenko, get ready.” lomon felt Vera's hand trembling in his. J She embraced him and whispered. “Tam calm, good-bye.” She tore herself away from him. “Let us go.” She took Solomon and Petruckhin by the arm. Facing the Executioner, ora went as if for a walk, with a light and elastic step. At the out- skirts of the wood, surrounded by so} diers, they said good-bye. Vera kissed everyone, and lingered a little longer with Solomon. They were drawn up in a line, at an interval of two steps from each other, and were face to face with their executioners, In front of them the muzzles of the rifles, behind them graves.

The actual, ex: change value of any commodity is im- parted to it by the amount of “socially necessary labor” incorporated in it, that is, the amount of work necessary, for the production of the commodity (from the beginning to the end of the process), given the socially normal, conditions of production, and the so- cially average degree of skill and in- tensity in working. The amount of labor stored in the commodity can only be estimated by the time consum- ed, by the duration of the expendi- ture or activity of the whole of the necessary working powers, it is thus labor alone which creates value, and labor—as. labor power—is in, itself a certain unit of value, determined by the socially necessary amount of la- bor required to produce the food need- ed to replace the amount of labor pow- or expended. 1 T a certain stage of human pro- ductivity however, the value of the product of a day’s labor is greater than the cost of a day’s labor power,” The worker creates a greater value than he requires for his subsistence. (Just, as thé 6x can pull a cart con- taining more hay than it needs as fod- der!) And this difference, which un- der capitalism. naturally falls to +? commodity buyer of the fortunate rep- resented by labor power, to the capi- talist, is the surplus value, the “nor- mal profit” gained in any case, even when no extra profit is won by ‘cheat- ing. -(In this world the four legged oxen can however much more certain- ly expect to receive their necessary ration of fodder! ) After the process of production is completed, the capitalist has received with the value of the commodities pro- duced at the same time surplus yalue, for the value of the-commodities, less the wages paid and the value of the means commodities productron con‘ sumed, is equivalent to tne surplus value. But the capitalist has first to realize this surplus value; to convert it into motiéy; and’ this is only accom- plished ‘by: the sale of the commodi- ties (C minus M plus 8S.)

(trusts’ cartels, syndi- cates) are still competing with one another on an international scale has the effect of keeping the prices with- in a certain distance of actual values, however elastic.: During the youthful days of capital- ism the role played by cheated profit (in addition to the surplus value or normal profit) was a very important one; as capitalism matured its import- ance lessened. The bouregois scien- tists told fables on the. “rise of. the working class.” Now, in the old age of capitalism, usurer’s profit.is added as a leading factor,.and all . three sources of profit flow into, the pockets of the capitalists: E : 1, The profit cheated ont of the workers by means of miserable wages. 2, The normal profit (surplus value) resultant on the purchaseability: of labor power. zo 3. The usurer’s profit-resultant on monopolist domination of. the markets. Besides this, the real wages of the proletariat can again be reduced by way of usurer’s profit, the necessities of existence of the purchasing prole- tariat being increased in price, Here the cheated profit is agatn swatlowea by the capitalist in the, veiled form of usurer’s profit.

The capi- talist realizes this extra profit by not selling the goods at their “individual” value, the value corresponding to the amount of labor required for their production, but at the! “socially” de- termined value. He can; however, sell “his goods under: their general value, for even then the real “indtvid- ual” value is realized. In this case the price demanded! fx ‘under the so- cially determined valué,’ and the con- sumer receives a présefit} so to speak (as for instance under Henry Ford’s successful business methods.) . But this “extra profit. of productivity,” in contrat to the actual “usurer’s profit” of the organized market. monopoly is being based solely on, the increased exploitation of the worker, and is gen- erally very short lived, since com: tors speedily catch it up. 42 ** We do not deal here with the modification of value, with relation to the price of production, caused under capitalism by the equalization of rates of profit.
