Truths Pondered While
Riding At Anchor
MIR. MODESTUS
. BOTTLE-NECKS
. ALWAYS BELITTLIN'
. HAPPENED BEFORE
. TWENTY YEARS AGO

Talking about bottle-necks:
Never talking about what is in the
bottles
Always telling of scarcity of certain
kinds of workers.
Keeping hush-hush about big sup
ply of some kinds of money
You'd almost think machine tools
were new discovery
That nobody could run turret
lathe until yesterday afternoon
That micrometers were something
invented last week.
That n-thousandths of an inch was
an Egyptian mystery
Hiding the bulging fact: that all
this happened once before
TWENTY YEARS AGO.
X X X
They made machine tools in 1914
Employed about 10000 men in the
industry, then
But it was unimportant; census did
not record their wages separately
But in 1918, they had 77,194 work
ers making machine tools
In 1914, product was valued at $50
millions in 1913, $500 million
Workers increased $50 per cent;
product increased 900 per cent
By 1921 number of workers was
back to 21,307-
But product was valued at $67.7 mil
lions
In 1929, 1891 machine tool makers;
product value, $244.5 millions
See those bottle-necks, as they come
and go?
X X X
Average annual wage paid in 1914,
But average production per wage
Garner was $1,670-
Average wage in 1919 was 1890;
average product, $4,000
In 1921 average wage was $1,04O;
average product, $3,180-
Average wage in 1929, $3.50; aver
age product, $5,200-
See those bottle-necks, all along the
way?
X X X
Then came 1929, CRASH
Machine tool makers turned out to
grass
Until the inevitable return of de-
mand for machine tools
In 1888 average wage was 5000; but
product averaged $3,260-
But by 1887 something was happen
ing in the world Of tools
Aggressive nations were getting
ready for war
American machine tool manufacture
ers sent out their call
Wanted: skilled mechanics, to come
back from the pastures
So in 1887 they paid 81 $50 average
wage
Total production climbed again to
260 million
Average production per wage earn
er, $3.50: fat in the bottle
But in eight years of depression,
skilled mechanics had been dying
Manufacturers kept their factory
machines oiled
Letting their old-time workers find
their own lubrication--
x
See where that bottle bulged?
"War prices" you will say
Sure enough: Back of that bottle
neck of wages
Millionaires were being produced,
along with machine tools
Now the same song is being sung
over again
In 312 years they have sold to Japan
over $51 million worth
To France they sold over $50 mil
lion worth
Nazis have been taking these over,
lately
Japan shakes her shining machines
under Uncle Sans nose
Tell us we must Cooperate: cor
else"-
Which promises to be another kind
of bottle-neck-
X X X
Query:
Can you build democracy, out Of
bottle -necks, like that?
