WILL THE CONSUMER sTRIKEl

Chairman Mariner s. Eccles OF
the Federal Reserve Board, has
made a public statement for which
he should be given vote of thanks
by every thoughtful person. He calls
for "a prompt balancing of the Fed
eral budget"
He stated facts which public men
have lodged in this period of hyster-
ical effort to boost wages, reduce
production and increase the cost of
living, when he said increased wages
and shorter hours which restrict
production ARE not at this time in
the interest of the public in general
or in the real interest of the workers
themselves. The upwOrd spiral
of wages and prices into infiationary
price levels can be as disastrous as
the downward spiral of defiation."
The consumer has been overlooked
in the strike situation and the pO-
litical situation, which are boosting
wages and prices for favored groups.
All of this brings the day closer
when the consumer will call strike.
He won't be organized, he won't
have any leaders. he will make no
there will be no tlag-waving
to get his votes. He will just decide
Of his own accord that he will put
off buying because prices are too
high. Overnight the wheels of in
dustry will slow down: men will find
themselves out of jobs; labor lead
ers will be unable to do anything
about it.; the economists and pOliti- /
clans who figurei everything out on
