Capitalism Branded Foe of Progress

greedy ingrateS may retain and
increase their profits which the
workers have produced for them.
Evidently the desire for gold and
silver has not been the sole source
of inspiration for every invention.
Had it not been for the Unsuitable
dollar grabbers our productive
ability would have been practically
insuperable. Emphatically the
convenience of mechanical pro-
duction would promote and ne
cessitate more proficiency amongst
the mechanical contrivers than
just the mere lust for individual
gain.
With the system Of production
for private profit, many Of the in
dustrial geniuses are deprived OF
the advantage Of their own inven-
ton, because of the lack Of suffl-
Gent funds for completion of a
discovery.
Consequently, the patent is sold
to some manufacturer who Utilities
it for selfish purposes, instead of
for the economic advantage of all.
SuppIanting Of the private profit
system by a new era of collective
ownership, social production and
more equal distribution apparent
ly is imminent, because the pro-
ducing class will grow weary of
producing untold wealth while re-
ceiving scanty compensation from
the idle class.

BY Married Woman.
I see where some fellow writing to
your column gives married women
who are working an awful razzing,
but can take it for the shoe doesn't
fit.
I have worked and helped to rear
my three children. Seven years ago,
took in a little homeless girl. Then
my daughter married and she and
her husband parted, leaving me a
little grandson to raise. He will soon
be 5 years old. The little girl is 7.

left my husband almost jobless and
I often think what would have be-
come Of these two little ones if
didn't have work. And so I would
say there are times when the mar
ried woman needs work.
am glad I am able to work and
do, for these little ones and my hus-
band.
We still have three good home
cooked meals and clothes washed
and ironed and we are one happy
family.

DEFENDS CHARGE FOR
CASTING CHECKS

By Rosemary Megenhardt
In regard to the statement Of
Halford Williams in this column on
oct. 9, condemning banks for charge
on cashing checks:
Is it necessary for others to do
favors for you with no payment2
Would you expect to go to a grocery
and buy its products at cost? 1t
must have small profit to enable
it to go on serving customers.
Present banking laws, made to
safeguard the public's money, have
cut down the earning power of the
banks and increased expenses. To
offset this, a service charge must
be imposed.
Your suggestion that banks quit
altogether is made in ignorance Of
facts and laws. The politicians
that you flay have made your fed
eral relief check possible.
If you wish, return TO the obso-
lete cash pay envelope, thereby saw
ing much work and expense for the
banks in general.

BY Sherman Long.
The most perplexing task con-
fronting the promoters of collec-
tive bargaining seems to be the
obliteration of the many perni-
cious legends which have been so
successfully instilled in the minds
of the toiling masses.
The masses seem obstinate in
the belief that capital has been
solely responsible for all technical
development, and that labor would
have been utterly helpless but for
the inclination of the capitalists.
Obviously, the competitive and
prof1teering system invariably has
suppressed industrial art by
monopolizing the natural re-
sources, and by owning and ma
nipuIating the tools of production.
Under the capitalistic system,
when an inventive genius perfects
any profitable device, it is first
thoroughly investigated to ascer-
tain whether its use will effect the
profits of any capitalist enter
prise. If so, it is Immediately con-
cealed and suppressed regardless
of the economic advantage it
would bring the majority.
AS the saying goes, ut is neces-
sary to burn one house in order to
save the village"
So, under the capitalistic sys-
tenn, it is essential to exploit and
Cypress the masses so that the

BETTER TIMES TALK
BRANDED BUNK
Rr W II a

BY W. H. B.
To keep on telling persons they
are about to get something done
that will benefit them seems about
the only way to keep them fooled.
Your editorial, "A Practical Plan, I"
is in line with all the rest of the
bunk that is being handed the pub
lie.
Had the editorial writer looked
into the matter and said, "all this
is bunk about helping get us back
on the track-it must be cut out,
and the writers pretending to know
anything about economics must fig
ure from base, not continue to get
figures from big rents, wartime
costs. big interest rates, wartime
salaries and big profits
Start with all salaries paid by the
government. Cut them to the bone.
When this is done, then and not till
then, can economics be applied. OF
course, these men who figure all
this out TO please the Office holders
by continuing to figure big profits,
big interest rates, big wartime sal
aries, despite millions idle.
All it does, Is TO keep adding to
the army Of idle, putting it on a
lower level Of living, and they know

it, yet are goofy enough to keep
at it.
The press, and politics, both, must
be dumped into the ash can and
when taken out perhaps good
cleaning will fit them for use.
Tell the people the truth. Tell
them that politics, the press and the
big interests are not trying to get
US back to good times.
If the government wanted to end
crime, it would have established
federal police, set them to work go
ing over the entire country with a
fine-tooth comb, instead of the pres
ent costly plan which is not good.
There seemed to be fear that
that kind of policing would get
some of the big criminals and this
may lead to no telling where.

THE CODES CAN WORK

TWO Of the major detectives OF labor-the
right Of collective bargaining and shorter
work hours to spread employment-are re-
ceving attention Of the Roosevelt admins
traitor.
Due to a technical defect in the Houde case
there has been a temporary setback in en-
forcing the collective bargaining principle.
But the administration has not abandoned
this law. The national labor relations board
continues making its decisions under Section
IA of MIRA. And the President is working
out a more effective coordination Of the
three enforcement agencies. NRA, federal
trade commission and the justice depart
ment.
Tangible progress is reported in the drive
for a shorter work week. Under the execu-
tive order signed by the President yesterday,
in the cotton garment industry thirty-six-
hour week will become effective Dec. l. with
no reduction in individual weekly wages. This
is expected to place 10000 jobless workers
back on the pay roll
True, these 10000 persons represent but
fraction of the total number of the unem-
ployed. but it is significant that they are to
be re-employed without the cost and dis
astrous consequences of a strike; and with
out any apparent dislocation within the in
dustry itself At first the employers were de-
FAINT, but their hostility melted in the face OF
the governments patient arbitration. The
government showed that other apparel and
needlecraft industries selling competitive
products were already successfully on thirty
six-hour basis.
Much more intelligent and less dangerous
is this method than the blanket thirty-hour
week legislative fat sponsored by the Amer
lean Federation of Labor. 1t is easy to SYM
pathize with the A. F. of L. premise that the
severe industrial unemployment situation re-
quires major operation. But it does not fol-
low that a scythe should be used instead of
a surgical knife.
Some industries are already on thirty
hour week. Others, doubtless, should adopt it.
But there are some industries, in the present
state of business, that might be strangled
Immediately if forced to reduce the work
week even to thrty-six hours without at the
same time reducing hourly wages And to
strangle these industries would be to add to
the breadlines.
The whole point is that each industry
should be handled separately and realistically
on the basis of the evidence. That is the
method of the NRA codes. BY its handling OF
the garment industry case, the NRA has
pointed the way. Can this machinery func-
ton fast enough and Efficiently enough to
achieve substantial results in time to head off
the growing political pressure behind the de-
mands for a blanket thirty-hour law? 1t can
if employers and labor will cooperate with
the administration.

~ This grim figure appeared in the news
columns Of The Times yesterday.
It represented the dismal toll that Marion
county has contributed to traffic tragedies since
the first Of the year.
Safety campaigns may have helped. but the
figure has grown steadily this year. APP
parently the real trouble is that some residents
of this city and county do not have enough
brain power TO drive automobiles safely.
No one can cure that defect in human.
But the human might have enough sense to
leave his car in the garage most of the time.

commission.
This agency already handles part of the
investigative and compliance work for NRA.
Even before NRA, by its fair trade practice
conference and its cease and desist orders. the
federal trade commission accomplished good
results with minimum friction, despite in
adequate laws and limited appropriations. 1t
