When the Law
Builds Monopoly

Department of justice sleuths have
been stalking that long legged giant,
Monopoly, in recent months. When the
sheafs of evidence are turned in, Con-
gress is scheduled to perform difficult
major piece of surgery-to amputate at
least few of the many long arms that
giant possesses.
What makes this operation such a
gruelling one is that monopoly is not
only giant. It's chameleon of many
colorsi
Some of its protective coloring was
instructively described for Californians
by DR.. Wilford L. White, Chief of the
Marketing Research Division of the u.
S. Bureau of Foreign and Domestic
Commerce, on the occasion of his recent
visit to this state.
There are many factors in this cour-
try at the present time" declared this
authoritative economist, (which tend to
bring about monopoly, such as the Rob
inson-Patman Act, anti-chain store legis
lation, and state fair trade aetsr All
these, of course, not only encourage mon
opolistic price-fixing devices, but often
make it mandatory.
And artificial price rigging, we'll
wager, is one arm of monopoly that the
American consumers won't mind sec
ing amputated!

Bruce Cation Says:
- u S. Can Avoid War : At Bargain Rates

The first and biggest step in the
process of getting country ready
for war is to sell it on the idea
that if war comes it can't possibly
stay out.
We are getting a sizable dose of
that sort of sales talk right now.
1t is raining in on us from all
sides. and the argument runs
| about like this: If a major war
starts anywhere, the world is SO
much unit nowadays that its .ef-
| fectS are felt every where. Isolation
| is impossible; we go tangled up in
| the last war and We shall newt
ably get tangled up in the next
one. So we might as we'll make up
| cur minds to it. and cooperate
with other nations now in an ef-
fort to keep the war from starting.
Now it may be true that we could
probably cooperate for the sake of
world peace-if any major power
showed the slightest willingness to
make any sacrifices for peace,
which to date none of them has
done.
But it is about time that some
one got up in meeting and pointed
out the utter absurdity of saying
that We can't possibly stay out of
the next war.
or course we can stay out of it.
Nobody is going to be insane
enough TO come over here and at
tack us; if We just make up our
minds that We aren't going to dc
any fighting off our home lot, and
stick to it, then we stay out OF
war. It is as simple as that.
OF course, it might be expensive
Whole volumes have been written
to show that we would have lost
billions dollars in 1917 if we had
Imperial Valley press., 1937-12-03

accepted the German submarine
campaign and remained at peace.
Our business boom would have
collapsed, foreign trade would have
stagnated, financial markets would
have gone into a tailspin and there
would have been the dickens to
pay generally.
But the answer to that is simple;
we lost billions of dollars anyway
in the long run, and saddled our
selves with a mess of trouble that
we still aren't entirely out from
under.
From a dollars and cents view
point, it would have been far
cheaper if our government had
bought up all the foreign orders
that were outstanding in 1917
orders for guns. shell. steel, cotton
wheat, oil and all the rest-paid
the sellers in hard cash. towed the
whole lot out to the middle of the
ocean, and sunk it there.
Our government paid the bills
anyway, IN the long run. BY going
to war it simply took on some bill
lions of dollars worth of other obli-
gations-and, Just incidentally
sent abut 10000 young Americans
to their deaths.
The expenses of any course OF
action are relative. 1t is quite true
that as the world Is now operated
it can be fearfully expensive for 6
nation like ours to remain at peace
when everybody else is fighting.
But there is this to remember
that nothing possibly can be a.
ruinously expensive as war.
We ought to keep that fact il
mind. when people start telling u
how inevitable" our participation
in that next war is going to be.
