HIGH COST Of LIVING
By Sheldon s. Cline.
No. 5.
Producers and Consumers.

For the purposes of this series of ar
ticles, the word producer" has been
given somewhat arbitrary meaning.
Old Ooof, the antediluvian nose-bone
whittier, was a producer, in one sense
of the word. but the things he pro-
duced were not essential to life, and
he was, therefore, an economic parasite.
His labor was no more contributtve to
the great primary requirement that
life shall be sustained than were the
efforts of the drum beaters and the
constantly increasing number of other
parasites who came later.
This term parasite" also should have
a word of explanation, perhaps. 1t is
not used in reproach. The man whose
labor does not contribute, directly or
indirectly, to the production, Transport
tation or distribution of food, clothing
or shelter Is an economic para site, no
matter how worthy and honorable the
who built the Washington Monument
were economic parasites, as were
Michelangelo and Shakespeare and Mil
ton and Henry Ward Beecher and
James Whitcomb Riley and a thousand
other men whose works are the pride
and the glory of mankind. They gave
to the world a million times over the
value of the food they ate and the
clothing they wore. Nevertheless, that
food and clothing had to be produced,
and the fact that they consumed with
out producing helped to make the cost
of living higher.
