WHO PAYS?

WHO PAYS? - It has been said
that wage-slashing is economic folly.
Another of the most popular lunacies
which economic grandstand players
preach is that the ocean is caused by
it's own spray. Manufacturers, G. S.
P, believe this if they really believe
their own statements. They tell you
= that there can be no wages paid,
high or low, unless some big boss
shall have been first created and al
lowed to make big pile Of money
out of which to pay the wages.
Who pays wages? Clearly, when
we eat a pork shop we pay the
wages, included in the purchase
price, of Armour's employees. So all
along the line. If many pork chops
are consumed Armour will tempo
rarily have to advance much money
in wages and other expenses to sup
ply them, but he gets it all back and
enough more added to make a ire
mendous profit. Then who pays the
wages-the pork eater or Armour?
Clearly, the pork eater About the
only distinct service that Henry
George rendered to political econ
omy was to bring that point out,
The open-mouthed gaping wants
of the people-the needs and wants
of all kinds Of the millions Of people
that is the source Of wages. In
other words, business" from, A to
q, good or bad, whatever its name
or nature, is a mere incident of the
material welfare of the millions of
people. If there is much material
welfare; if people earn enough to
supply their wants; if the standard
of living is high, so that there are
many wants over and above the
bread-and-butter line - then there
will be business. Otherwise not.
These are the fundamental condi-
lions, and the relations of the facts
if there is no ocean Of wants there

SHO-SHONE CLUB REPLIES
It is indeed Unfortunate that it is
necessary for me to make reply on
my article of Dec. II, when I started
the ball a-rollin' by giving my opin-
ion, as well as the clubs, to the
question, What Chicago Boys and
Girls Think of Each Other"
My. article was written only as-an
opinion, not as a debate. My re-
marks are truthful, for when say
the girls of today, that means the
majority, although I admit the boys
faults are as great. We all have our
faults and my remarks bear just as
much truth and were meant to bring
the same effect as the opinion Of
New York girls of the young men Of
today.
If that article was truth, so was
mine. In rectifying my article, wiz
quote a passage from our martyred
president, Abraham Lincoln, in nv
version: Some of the girls have all
of those faults; all of the girls have
so7ne of those faults, but all Of the

brought them to US in the trenches
and in doing so had to pass through a
zone where not only shells, but bullets
of sharpshooters were getting in their
fatal work. And he proved faithful,
efficient and true to the end. At the
battle of Town Creek in North Caro-
lima, on the Goth, of February '65,
where 500 men under Col. Simonton,
with a section of artillery, fought
from early dawn to dusk, a large
force of the enemy, while the main
body of our troops and wagon trains

came on scouts and couriers carried
the news there that Col. Simonton and
all that was left of his 500, was cap

Willie and / were dead or among the
captured, but he gathered up every
thing of ours that he had in charge
and after carefully packing them
headed for home and safely reached

father and mother, and gave them all

The Ocala papers are together in
opposition to Cats. This is surpris-
ing two ways-one that they should
be together and another that either of
them should be against the democrat
ic nominee.-Tampa Tribune.
The Ocala papers sometimes differ
on details, but we do not remember
any time they have ever differed on
principles. The Tribune's dispatches
from Tallahassee have probably ere
this informed it that Cats is not the
nominee.

He gave US some useful information.
