HOW TO DETECT PROPAGANDA

The Institute for Propaganda An
alysis, described as non-profit corpora
ton, has set up headquarters in New York
city, under the leadership of Charles A
Beard, historian and specialist in demo-
cratic government
In a recent monthly letter it enum-
crates. seven tools in the propagandist's
kit for fooling the public, including the
name-calling device, the glittering general
tiles device, the transfer device, the testi-
monial device, the plain-folk device the
.eard-Stacking device and the band-wagon
device.
Advising how to detect propaganda
the Institute warns us that the propa-
.gandtst r'appeals to our hate and fear by
giving bad names to those individuals,
groups, nations policies, practices, beliefs
and ideals which he would have us con-
denim and reject"
Briefly, the name-calling device ex-
plains itself. The glittering generalities
device is to identify a program through
the use of virtue words" in other words,
the reverse of the name-calling device.
The transfer device is to lead US to attach
former Royalties TO whatever is being of
fered. The testimonial device explains it.

GOVERNOR CONE AND A LOCAL
"BUM" SITUATION

The best the vagrant crop can expect
this year when they get into the cities of
Miami, Fort Lauderdale and West Palm
Beach is a free ride in police cars to the
northern city limits or the usual room and
board at those cities jails in return for
hard labor.
That's what the police chiefs of those
cities say. oo6
In spite of the fact that the sheriffs
of Dade, Broward and Palm Beach coun-
ties, following Governor Cones orders,
have announced they are not running the
hobo express this year.
The Governor has been determinedly
carrying on a campaign against the prac-
tice. Last week he said it was Something
beyond understanding in a free country"
Chief Deputy Sheriff Bernard WaiteI
reports that Key West of late has beenI
little bothered with transients. According
to reports in the Sheriff's office. total of
only seven Migrants have been arrested,
since August, 1886. None were of the
more serious criminal type.
However, when the F. E. c. railroad
ran into this city, it was quite a different
PROPOSITION. A large number of "boes"
were well-known criminals wanted in many
cites This fact worries the Sheriff's Of
flee. Because soon the complete Overseas
4riaga yapdf Highway thoroughfare will be
thrown open to the public And it has
every reason to expect large influx of
undesirable visitors again.
The plain facts of the matter, Chief
Deputy Waite stated, are that Cd nearly
100 per cent of hoboes and hitch-hikers
are panhandlers, (2) there is a fairly large
class of petty thieves among them, and (3)
the more dangerous criminals form an
element.
The people of Key West should take
warning at an approaching perplexing
situation. The local police will do their
best to keep the city clear of the undesir-
able transients. but Key Westers must CO.
operate closely with the Department. Es-
pecially should all suspicious characters be
promptly reported.
The bridges will bring with them
many such problems. And as they arise
they must be solved, promptly and well.
Otherwise we may suffer serious con-
sequences.

Is Less Time More Money?
By HARLEY L. LUTZ
Professor of Public Finance, Princeton University

billions of new sales. Time is said to
be money, but Mr.. Roosevelt is say
ing that less time equals more money.
It looks like case of double COUNT
ing, in which wage increase is added
to shorter hours in order to get
greater total purchasing power.
In the second half of the above quo
tation, it is said that the increased
volume of sales, totalling billions by
the new arithmetic, OUGHT to lessen
other costs enough to make price
increases unnecessary.
True, it ought, but will it? This is
just plain. wishful thinking. 1t is
case of generalizing, Scatter-gun
fashion, regarding the whole produc-
tive process, as if the principle of de-
creaSing cost were universal More
over, it ignores the reasons for de-
creasing cost when this tendency is
found. II would be very nice indeed
if we could give the masses more
money to spend without its having any
effect on the prices of the goods which
they buy. We have dallied too long
already in this economic dreamland.
Some industries are able to reduce
unit costs as their output increases.
hence they can sell their product at
lower prices. 1t is putting the cart
before the horse, however. to say
that greater demand is the key to this
price reduction. There is always a
potentially greater demand for any
article as the price is lowered. even
without any artificial wage increases.
The secret of the lower price as pro-
duction expands is lower unit cost.
and the reason for lower unit cost is in
all of the economies of large scale pro-
duction.
An important element in this cost
is wages. II the labor is efficient, and
is made increasingly so with the aid
of abundant capital. capable and ag-
gresSive management, and vigorous
development of technical improve
ments, then high wages are not in
consistent with low unit costs. Under
such conditions labor is increasingly
productive. and this fact is usually
recognized in the level of wages paid.
But it is evident that these conditions
are not met by the governments wage
program. nor by that of organized
labor in proposing to enforce wage
demands by political action. Hence it
is only a pious hope that such wage
increases will not be reflected in
prices.

ought to lessen other costs of produc-
ton so much that even considerable
increase in labor costs can be alb
sorbed without imposing higher prices
on the consumer"
This passage falls into two sections
which should be examined separately.
In the first part, there are the millions
of the lowest-paid workers who will
become buyers of farm and factory
products after they get the "few more
dollars a week" which the wages and
hours~bills lis intended to give them.
Theasuggestion is that they are not
now buying anything with such
wages Is they are at present receiv-
ing. This was not Intended. but there
clearly was a deliberate effort to
make a special plea for the highly
dubious wage and hour control plank
No one knows how many there are
whose wages should be increased. nor
how much the raise should be. If as
many as 100000 workers were to
ret. on the average. a weekly raise
Of $500, it would mean. assuming full
time employment for all. an annual
aggregate wage increase of 81 .300.-
10000. While this is tidy sum. IL Is
not any large number of billions.
There is a considerable discrepancy
between the moderate weekly in
crease suggested for each worker and
the optimistic total effect Of this in-
crease on sales volume.
It is also implied that a shorter
working day will contribute to the
address questions to the a,
