interesting reading:]
"Try on tho Straight jacket"
1t may be ripple from the great
experiment in communism so close to
her own shores that has seized Den
mark in its embrace and caused to be
submitted q program Of laws which
would reduce that state to condition
of practical socialism. The program
consists Of three proposed measures.
The first provides for business coun-
Gil fof sixteen members selected with
regard to the representation Of all in
terests. This council would preside
over all industry with the power Of de.
manding whatever information it
wanted and Of fixing prices to prevent
profits considered more than reason
able. Also 1t could prevent concerns
j from operating in any manner deemed
detrimental to the social welfare.
The second law would provide for
the participation of employees in the
management Of any business employ.
ing five or more workmen. Details Of
this participation would be arranged
by agreement between the Danish EN-
ployers' association and the Fedora
tion of Trade Unions. The third law
would make all profits illegal except
one profit for the manufacturer or i'm
porter, one for the wholesaler and one
for the retailer. BY this law also
goods must be marked to indicate the
factory or import price and the name
of the producer or importer. The busi-
ness council has further powers, the
effect of which would be to reduce
every business to dead level Of uni
formity with no possibility of making
any more than the established profit.
Possibly such system would work
for Denmark, although we question IL
even their capital would care to incur
the risks Of business operation without
chance of reward over the usual in
terest returns which can be collected
from investing in bonds and other
securities. And nothing can force
capital to engage in business unless it
so prefers. Certainly American busi-
ness would never care to operate in
such a straight-jacket. It will be inter-
esting, If this program goes into effect,
to observe what Danish business will
do.
