straws.

Discussing the troubles of the ce-
ment industry, The Business Week
asks:
Which is in the public interest
to insist upon new price wars, with
low wages, unemployment, and even
tual bankruptcy as the price to be
paid in return for, possibly, lower
prices to the consumer? Or to per-
NIT, encourage and supervise a SEN
sible cooperation which shall stabil-
ize orderly production and distribu-
tion, and incidentally permit steady
employment at fair wages?
The same question might be asked
in connection with any or all industry.
There is only one answer The "sen-
sible cooperation" mentioned by The
Business Week is undoubtedly in the
public interest and there is every in
dication that the people favor it.
