Prosperous America

The report of the Hoover committee on recent eco
nomic changes regards the policy of high wages and
low production costs as an "enlightened industrial
practice" responsible in large measure for American
prosperity that is splendid beyond all human expert
ence."
The committee records definite change in the
philosophy of industrial leaders.
In the early postwar period, the report recalls
many employers were demanding that wages be
brought back to prewar levels saying business could
not settle down" until this had been accomplished.
Labor naturally opposed wage cuts.
Then it was observed that continuance of high
wages released purchasing desires which had been
held back during the war; and current earnings and
accumulated savings were poured into the channels
of commerce" Industrial leaders were quick to see
the significance.
"They began consciously to PROFOUND the principle
of high wages and low costs as a policy of enght-
ened industrial practice says the report. This prin
cipe since has attracted the attention of economists
all over the world-its application on broad scale is
novel as to impress the committee as fundamen-
tai development"
The committee. appointed sixteen months ago. was
an outgrowth of the Presidents unemployment con-
ference of 1921-1922. Herbert Hoover has been its
chairman and signs the present report
The period under review is described as one of I'M
preeedented prosperity. we seem only to have
touched the fringe of our potentialties" We must,
however, maintain our economic equilibrium" if we
to keep what we have, and progress
Goods produced and production per man. have in
creased vastly through wider of power, develop
ment of machines and other factors. Wages actual
and reaI have advanced The working day is shorter.
The committee believes one of the marked char
acterstcs of the period has been the extent to which
the people whole have prospered, The employees
share in the national dividend" has increased An
other economist finds that the has brought good
times to people, though by to ALL"
Particular attention is called to the displacement
of men by machines, contributing largely to unem-
ployment. This is serious aspect of the problem of
unemployment says the report, to which continuing
attention must be paid if hardship and uncertainty
in the lives of the workers are to be forestaled.

IT SEEMS TO ME By H
HAYWOOD
BROUN

many marriages are wooden from
the altar onward. Not even the
Wisest in the world can tell how any
marriage will end, but the begin
ming is within the fashioning of
those who voyage.
And SO let them make the first
stage Of the journey without mis-
giving, good resolutions and heavy
VOWS.
Vows, in particular, are heavy lug
gage and grow no lighter in the
journey. A young man and a young
woman are pretty sure to promise
each other a number of things
which never will be kept.
No great harm is done by that.
People of any shrewdnesS know that
there are moments when men and
women are ready to promise any
thing.
I do think it is monstrous that
the community should sit in on the
exchange of VOWS and be ready in
later years to shake accusing fingers
at the two who broke them. What
they pledged each other should be
secret.
In SO far as it is possible, the
marriage should be concealed for at
least the first year. Or even if it
isn't precisely secret, there is no
reason why everybody for miles
around should know of it.
