THE ORACLE. £ = - =. = zi ANOTHER LESSON IN ECONOMICS That quaint theory that it is possible to continually raise wages ‘without raising prices was disproved Jong ago. Now the public is witnessing still another demon- stration of the fact that wages and prices move together. The current case is coal. As the Wall Street Journal said, “The American pub- lic will soon be ‘chipping in’ to finance the latest pay hike which John L. Lewis wrap- ped up for his soft coal miners.” The prob- able average increase, once the situation stabilizes, will be about 85 cents a ton. That, along with some other factors, is ex- pected to raise the price of steel $5 a ton. And when steel prices rise,’ it is felt throughout all basic industry. The price tays on thousands of articles will be in- creased. The desire of workers to earn more money is perfectly natural. But, in the long run, the welfare of industry is what will determine job security and workers’ annual income, If, as an example, higher coul prices force consumers to substitute other fuels, the ultimate result will be a shrinking market for coal and fewer jobs for the miners. Again, if a wave of price increases brings on consumer resistance and a general decline ip, buying, the ill effeets will be felt throughout the country -—at the expense of all. There is but one way wages can be permanently increased without prices be- ing increased—and that is by higher out- put per worker to hold down cost of pro- duction. In the last two years, worker productivity in many fields has actually de- clined while wages have soared. The in- evitable result has been inflation and a cheapened dollar, The present coal situa- tion simply indicates that stil) more price inflation is on the way. THE GOVERNORS’ CONFERENCE The Governors of our forty-eight States have met again and exchanged notes and opinions on how to maintain the independence of the States, and prevent the Federal Government from pushing them around too much. It’s a good idea, in view of the fact that our Federal Gov- ernment is butting in at a movement that belongs to the States. "Most any reader of this item can supply the details. In Memphis, Tenn., 19 hotel guests have heen arrested this year for smoking in bed, with fines ranging from $26 to $76. illustrated in The Citizen article, the one VARIABLE “J know I don’t look good in it, but what am i to do—it’s the Fashion. .” Nothing in jife, aside from home ties, | wields as much influence over women gen- erally, as Fashion. Some of them are slaves | to Fashion; others try to keep up with it } though they may not be said to be in bond- age, and a few, very few, disregard it. Even elderly ladies sense a thrill of satis- | faction when they know whaf they wear is in Fashion. The Citizen, aware of the popular pull of Fashion among its feminine readers, ; keeps them informed, through the Asso- | ciated Press, of the latest edicts of Dame Fashion. The last year or two, freakish hats, worn by women, have pushed up } the masuline brow questioningly, but the new styles in headgear, as illustrated in The Citizen on Thursday, are returning to what may be termed a sensible status. A draped burgandy velvet sailor, so far as the masuline eye can determine, would be attractive on any woman's head, young, middle-aged or elderly, and so would a pumpkin-colored wool beret. A deep bonnet, turned out by Croyden’s, looks like a hat that was in vogue 60 years ago, if our eyes are not out of focus. But, it is our guess that, of the four hats that will appeal to 99 44/100 per cent of women, is Braagaard’s big felt sailor trim- med in white mink tails. Reason for the preference is because that’s the hat that will make the deepest dent in hubby’s pocketbook. “It’s a field day for milliners,” Dorothy Roe, the AP writer of the article, said, though, she could have added that, in the world of women’s hats, every day is, field day for milliners, because style is as vari- able as the weather. Human progress comes from education rather than reformation. You never have to hurry to give advice; nobody will accept it until it is too late to do them any good. BILL OF RIGHTS FOR LABOR Commenting on the Taft-Hartley labor bill, Representative Ralph W. Gwinn said: WD Seemann af thin hil af wiehta fan 1 bor believe that when union men take back their own unions and manage them for themselves without fear of management or labor bosses, industrial peace will come. That is the hope in the return of freedom under this bill.” That is a sound statement—and a sound definition of the purposes of the bill. It precisely stipulates that union mem- bers have the right to know how much money their union has and what it is used for. They have the right to choose their union officers by secret ballot in free elec- tions. They have the right to select as their bargaining agent the union they want — not the union that is forced on them. They have the right to a fair hearing, before an impartial board, whenever they may believe that either the employer or the union is discriminat- ing against them. The bill does not deprive labor of any right which is consistent with American principles and the public welfare. It does on the other hand, reaffirm that the in- dividual worker has basic and vitally im- portant rights of which he cannot be de- prived by either unions or industry. It is aimed straight at the union racketeer boss —and at the exploiting employer as well. The measure is in the interest of the rank and file—of the millions of men and women who make up America’s working force. It may not be perfect. It may need early revision in some particulars. But it is based upon the sound prineiple that free labor must be safeguarded—and that the intolerable abuses of power of some la- bor leaders, no less than of some employ- ers, must be stopped. a Ex-Congressman Andrew May was given a jail sentence for taking a bride.— Exchange.
