LIVING ONLY FOR TO-DAY

Living in and for the present and Ignoring to-
morrow and its responsibilities is found by The
Industrial News Review to be the beSetting Ameri-
can sin.
II proceeds in this matter to elaborate
For nearly ten years the federal government has
spent 50 for every 81 received in revenue. EXpen-
dtures are climbing steadily.
In the name of social security, the government
taxes the pay envelopes of wage earners, then i'm
mediatey expends the funds thus derived for pres
ent needs of government itself-instead Of holding
them in trust for the future needs of the nations
workers. The future is left to shift for itself
And then there are the heavy inheritance taxes
that have become drastic that they gradually
drying up valuable source Of government in
come; the same is true of the excess profits tax
which destroys corporate savings. curtails needed
expansion; and the capital gains tax, which again
destroys rather than conserves capital.
The list of such policies could be continued IN
definitely. They perade nearly every department
of government activity crop loans, housing loans,
etc. 1t is what the economists call capital con-
sumption" And as The New York Times points
out: Liberal economists hold that progressive cap
ital formation is the chief way by which the posi-
ton of the great mass of the workers can be per-
manently improved Capital consumption is the
reverse of this process"
Capital consumption leads directly to chaos mis-
cry for all.
Such observations are timely and pertinent.
The old ideas and habits Of national thrift fru-
gality and industriousnesS are none too apparent
on the horizons of the hour.
Americans do, indeed, seem to have become be-
guiled by the philosophy of ''eat, drink and be
merry for tomorrow we die"-Charlotte Observer.

NEWSPAPERS OPINIONS
WAGE-HOUR LAW FALLACY

No nation today can distribute among its
hundred million people more than it can produce
What else can we pay wages out Of. except out of
what we produce? There is no other source from
which to derive wageS-now or ever. Hence it is
recognized by all competent economists that the
more we produce the greater will be the fund
from which our nations payroll can be distributed
Before that distribution can be made, rapidly in
creasing taxes of all sorts must be set off Taxes
for the past two years have been the highest in
history. Hence the deductions from funds avail
able for wages have been the greatest in our his
tory. We must either increase production or re-
duce taxes OF both, if we are to increase wages
for all
Now then, i'll view of these facts, let US consider
the proposed minimum wage and maximum hour
legislation. Does it either increase production or
reduce taxes? BY no means. Its real purpose and
effect are rather to determine the classes of labor
to whom the wages should be paid the relative pro-
portion which these various classes may receive
and the relative hours which they may work
The plan as advanced will clearly tend to give
smaller proportion of wages to the most skilled and
most productive labor, and larger proportion to
the least skilled Of the wage group; and the CLASH
fcation of these groups will be determined more
and more by something other than individual merit.
While legislation covering wages and hours may
conceivably redistribute available hours and wages
between different groups of employees, the law itself
will never create cents worth of greater produc
ton out of which more wages can be paid. All the
law can do is to attempt to determine, through the
discretion of some commission, who shall labor and
who shall be idle. On its face it purports to give
the equal protection of law to even the humblest
toier, since it attempts to establish wages below
which one shall be paid. 1t would tend TO &C
complish the of this, because it would eX-
clude from labor and throw upon relief those who
are unable to earn the minimum established wage
and those working for small employers, whose lack
of capital, machinery and equipment make it inn
possible for them to compete on as high basis of
wages as the larger and better equipped employers.

tween England and the Irish Free
Stata are still delicate. -
For one thing, the British
wouldn't think Of suggesting that
they would just as soon not have
an IriShman. They need n united
Empire front in the face OF the
European situation, and they
can't afford to affront an Irish
government which still keeps
sticking pins in the British gov
eminent. (The latest incident is
the dispatch Of an Irish Free state
minister to the Italian Emperor
Of Ethiopia" IN Rome.)
Furthermore, the u. s. govern
ment is anxious that Britain be
able to face Germany and Italy
without worrying about Ireland,
and it is believed Kennedy's APP
pointment, and perhaps his subse-
ouent activities, may help improve
Anglo Irish relations.
