NEED OF LABoR's COOPERATION

The relation OF labor 10 prices Is the
economic problem OF the hour.
There should be neither profiteering
by capital nor profiteering by labor.
The minimum cost OF production Is
obviously dependent upon established
wage cost. since the element OF labor
represents an average major item Of
cost in the creation OF a finished pro-
duct.
Is il possible to fix the price OF raw
material. as is being done. and leave
unfixed the factor Of labor which trans
mutes IL into the finished product, and
avoid commercial cataclysm?
There is an impending need not only
for an intensification OF Industrial ac-
tiyities, but there exists a like and
compelling occasion for intensified ac-
tivity in all branches Of food produc.
tion.
VIII labor that does not contribute
significantly to the tax levy voluntarily
rearrange its working basis for the
period Of the war and by increasing in
dustrial production release men for
food production!
VIII an effective mobilization Of in
dustrial man-power for service twher
ever service may be needed be secured
by voluntary cooperation or Federal
direction?
In the ultimate terms of our war ii
nancing must be what money will buy
rather than money itself. is it not fun
, damental that there shall be no priority
of either capital or labor but that the
same measure Of expediency shall. be
applied to all alike?
Capital has thus far done its share
in voluntarily adjusting its views tt
meet those of the government.
