DEFINITIONS ON COOPERATION

EDITOR ASkOV American.
1t seems to be granted by most
speakers on cooperation that the pub
lie is thoroughly acquainted with the
subject.
Therefore they give no explana-
ton of true cooperation but let you
know how good it works, what profits,
dividends, interest and control of own
ership it gives over the capitalistic
private enterprise, and of course do
hot forget to tell that the capitalistic
and private ownership has always
worked with short weight, test and
measure.
! This series of jargon is demon
strated time and time again, ending
with to invite those in the audience
to join if they have not already done
so.
l often have a desire to ask these
orators if they, themselves, are men,
bers and cooperators in the true sense
of the word, dividing equal in work
and income, money, time, hardships
and leisure.
True cooperation is Socialism and
the reverse, not taking any advantage
over the other but dividing in the
rights as we'll as the obligations.
There are many comfortable living
people in favor of cooperation, but do
not favor Socialism, especially not
there where Socialism calls for duties
of dividing hardships and obligations.
While on the other side, those who
live in the lower brackets of life and
income favor equal rights but are
also opposed to equal obligations and
rather receive out the hand Of char
ity than that they are remembered
on their obligations and prefer to
sit in the tree like hawks watching
the other fellows chickens.
With the coming election near, it
would be of much interest to hear
from candidates who like to ride into
office on the cooperative horse to tell
the public their conception of COOP
GRAFTON whether it is capitalistic, So
cialistic or Scandinavian common
wealth with nothing of the capitals
tic fraterna1ly abolished king and his
privileges, unequal income interest
on stock while hard working people
receive just enough to live but are
missing modern comforts of life.
Let anybody give his conception
of cooperation regardless if they are
using this for their individual in
terest or for mutual welfare. They
owe the public a clear definition.
In my opinion there is no true CO.
operation. False cooperation can not
accomplish any good and is detri-
mental to good cooperation. Defend
ing false ideas is dishonest not only
to ourselves but also to others.
l admit there are people on the
wrong road who found by experience
the good road, but at the same time
it is bad advice to go out on the
wrong road in order to find the goot
one.
That present cooperators are on the
wrong road can not be denied, man!
of them willfully. To prove this il
very simple. Remember the time
when local cooperative creameries be

HOME MARKET

Every now ana tnen, especially
during a campaign year, we can read
statements on the part of reactiOnary
politicians-the outs who want to get
in-something on this order:
I'VE must have a government which
will make and enforce laws that will
keep the American markets for the
American industries and farms and
not have them swamped by the goods
and products of nations that are our
industrial and farming rivals and
competitors"
That silly statement has been over
worked. How in the name of COM
mon sense can we expect to sell goods
to other countries if in turn we do
not purchase goods from them?
There must be a balance of trade.
If we ship and sell automobiles and
tractors to European countries we
tural products, violins, dolls, or what
have you, in exchange. If we do
not buy something in exchange for
what we deliver to foreign countries
we will either have to take gold or
give away our products. Our indus
trialists. being hardly classed as
philanthropists, get gold or other
commodities for what they sell in the
foreign market. They cannot eat the
gold so they sell that for products
where they can get the most for
their money.
And while all this talk about keep
ing foreign products from our shores
is going on. we neglect to some ex-
tent to capitalize on the greatest po-
tential market in the world-the
domestic market of the United States
of America. Better wealth distribu-
ton, more buying power on the part
of the masses, would create a wonder
full market right here at home.
The ten per cent foreign trade
would look very insignificant if the
home market really was brought up
to what it ought to be. But that will
be done only by giving employment
to the people. If the wealthiest peo-
pie of this nation cannot soon see
the folly of this economic maladjust-
government do something to straight
en- out the affairs, the people through
their own voluntary ORGANIZATIONS
coOperatives-will have to bring it
about by degrees.
Government, cooperation, and per-
sonal initiative can we'll go hand in
hand to make for good social order,
but we have been too slow in realiz-
ing it. The country of Sweden has
set a good example for the world in
the control of monopolies. BY under
standing, knowing the detectives, and
working diligently for them, the same
orderly process can be brought about
in any other country. There is no
easy road to success and let us not
be led astray by lot of hollering
from the housetops, political, eco
nomic, or otherwise.
Tinkering with the tariff sched-
ules is not going to bring on good
times. When America sets up tar
iff wall other countries do likewise.
They are not chumps. They want
trade on a fairly equal basis. That
is true especially of northern Euro
pean countries where the people are
much like Americans-free and lib
erty loving.
The best short cut to economic
betterment for the nation as a whole
is good common sense, good business
judgment, a desire to work, oppor-
tunity to work, honesty, and apply
ing the golden rule. Catch phrases
like the tariff will do little.
