THE UNAVOIDABLE ACCIDENT

THE UNAVOIDABLE ACCIDENT
 If there were school for drivers in every community, one funda- mental precept would doubtless be taught first to every student driver. All motor car accidents are avoid- able"
 Do you question that precept? Suppose, then, you name over the various accidents with which you arc familiar and which you believe were unavoidable. But step mo- mcnt. Alter naming each ore, ask yourself this further question:
 Was It not humanly possible for someone, oy doing something either before or at the time of emergency, to have prevented that dlsaster?"
 The fact is that the vast majority of motor vehicle fatalities ana in- Juries are caused, directly or indi- rectly, by the mistake, the incom- petence, the failure of someone sometimes more than one. Even the small number of accidents trace able to mechanical failure might have been prevented by thorough and frequent inspection, by less speed, or by more expert driving at the moment.
 Yes, there may be, rarely, an ac. cident which falls in the Act of God" class. But even these may often be prevented by foresight.

The Waterbury Democrat., 1937-03-29

Washington, March % - As pre- viously noted in this column, there is a school of thought in this ad- ministration which holds that nothing of consequence can be done to forestall the next national eco- homie collapse that many econom- it's forsee as the ultimate result of rapidly rising price level.
 Others are convinced that if the government moved forward vigorously with 8 definite indus trial program, it could break up the familiar cycle of soaring prices and soaring profits, and relative ly lower purchasing power. This results in decreased consumer de- mand and, finally, more unem- ployment and depression.
 The second group is not very confident of adequate action. With bankers, industrialists, labor lead CTS and farmers all on the band wagon for higher prices, bigger pro- fits and higher wages, the group doubts whether the administration will try to apply the drastic brakes considered necessary.
 
 Only Plan So Far
 One preventive program is pre- cented herewith, in rough outline, not because the economists who suggest it are necessarily correct in their plan, but because it is the only comprehensive plan of the sort so far suggested here by anyone.
 Leon Henderson, who who was chief of research and planning in the MIRA and who later directed economic council study, is more closely identified with the preven- tive program than anyone else. However. the plan has been widely discussed privately here, and is fav- ored in part or whole by those most concerned with preserving consum- CT purchasing power.
 These are the chief steps pro- posed:
 l. Federal action to break up monopolistic devices, such as the passing point system in the steel in- dustry.
 2. Pressure through allocation of government purchases. That this is a weapon of some power has been indicated in the history of the history of the Walsh Healy bill re- quiring maintenance of certain labor standards by recipients of govern ment contracts. Government insist ence ton enforcement helped bring about the 40-hour week and higher wages on the steel industry.
 3. Selective taxation on profits so devised as to hit at corporations making excessive" profits through boosted prices.
 4. Patient law revision in an ef- fort to curb prices sustained through patent monopolieS.
 5. Antitrust law prosecutions and efforts to break up the prac- tice of collusive bidding.
 6. Absentention from the world armament race, which, by adding to the demand for certain raw and semi-flnished materials, leads to price exploitation.
 !. Encouragement of consumer co-operatives as still another curb on prices, and a means of preserving mass purchasing power.
 8. Reduction of tariff barriers in order to allow certain foreign pro- ducts to compete with high-priced commodities in this country.
 9. Government yardsticks, such as are being attempted by federal water power projects, and such as was suggested in the threat of the government to make its own steel fo rthe navy in order to break down definance of the Walsh -Healy act.
 10. A general policy of skimming profits off the top and feeding them back to the low-income and no-in- come group at the bottom.

Idea Too Radical"

As an omnibus program, cynics assert, this plan is too radical to receive approval of the President and Congress, no matter how inn minent disaster might appear to be. Pressure of business groups would be too powerful.
 V, most government ecOnom-
 ists agree that the solution best
 adapted to meeting the next crisis would be a combination of stim- ulus for wages and purchasing power. and measures stimulating
 volume production of goods at low prices. The modern industrial
 financial system just doesn't op- crate toward volume production
 at low prices, it is argued, but
 rather the opposite directions.
 About year ago the Interstate Com. ..lerce Commission, in the face of general protest, ordered eastern railroads to reduce passenger fares although labor costs had recently in reased. The first six months of op. ration under reduced fares show ed that passenger miles of travel increased 4l.3 per cent, and that total passenger revenues increased 17.8 per cent. But this example of Lower your price and you widen your market" was brought about by government agency's fiat.
 The most pleasant, but perhaps no. the safest, thing to do is to as- sumo that the economists are all wrong about a coming collapse.
