What TO Do
About
Subsidies

BY the time you read this,
Congress-the lower half Of it
will probably have voted on the
food subsidy issue, In the bill
(HR S47D to extend the life OF
the Commodity Credit Corpora
ton, which In government
agency that buys commodities
and resells them.
The hunger-bloc, masquerad-
ing as farmers" has put into
this bill a complete ban on the
use Of any public funds to save
the people billions of dollars In
food price increases.
As The CIO News went to
press the betting odds were on
House vote to uphold Section
8 Of the bill. the section that
kills subsidies.
IL this happens. this is what
every worker who wants to go
on eating and wants to be able
to buy food at reasonable prices
must do:
Write, wire, visit your SEN
at0rs to demand that Section 3
be- left out OF the Senate version
of the bill, that the bill be
passed with no ban on subsidies.
and that Senators take quick
and decisive action.
Subsidies mean more food at
more reasonable prices. A ban
on subsidies means less food.

tastic profits for the food mo
nopoly.

or permit food to be taken of the
tables Of the American public for
the personal profit of special In
terests."
In a challenge to Republicans to
forget their partisan interests In
the interests OF the war, he wrote
to Rep. Martin:
mo responsible political party or
leadership can afford in this criti-
cal war period 10 make the demand
for increased food prices a plank in
its platform. No responsible politi-
cal party or leadership can afford
to label itself at this critical point
in our war effort the party Of
imitation"
AGO PER CENT INCREASE
Murray also pointed out that
without subsidies. prices will jump
from 4 TO 20 per cent in "a basic

cents, butter from ) to cents,
canned vegetables Ia cents. sugar
l cent. milk l cent quart etc.
Murray's warning was empha-
sized sharply by OPA Admins
traitor Chester BOwles, who took
to the radio twice this week to
call for upholding the use OF
subsidies. Barring them, he said.
would cost the nation an extra
Is billion dollars u year. This
cost. he pointed out. was 90
times the cost Of the 8OO-million-
dollar subsidy program now
planned.
But IL they (Congress) decide
against the present program, then
in spite OF anything we in OPA
can do. there will be immediate
increases in the price of butter,
meat. milk. bread and certain fruits
and vegetables-and there may be
further increases later" Bowles
The CIO news. (Cumberland, Md.) 1942-????, 1943-11-22

Food monopoly agents in Congress
have written an absolute ban on
any and all subsidies into the bill.
In a final appeal to House lead
ers, CLIO President Murray wrote
to both Majority Leader John w.
Mccormack and Minority Leader
Joseph w. Martin, Jr., urging them
to see the subsidy issue in its real
light. as IAN issue simply Of high
prices as against price control"
Writing to Rep. Mccormack, he
said: "These threats Of runaway
prices are threats to the work.
ing health and efficiency Of
American war workers, they are
threats to the stability Of our
home front economy.

Taking to the radio for CLIO,
Secretary-Treasurer James 3. Carey
said: This is your fight, fight

sumner in this country has a vital
stake In the outcome. II we lose,
we are in for a terrible beating
All CLIO members and their families
are consumers just like you are.
The CLIO is in this fight to the
finish"
Meanwhile. the Senate Agricul-
ture Committee has been holding
hearings on the subsidy issue,

pOlltaxer from South Carolina,

paper.

Scanlon's reply also pointed out
that nowhere does the Smith report
take up any Of the real weaknesses
of the OPA. such as its failure to
fight for grade labelling, its satu-
ration with industry agents In ma
jor price policy jobs, and Its weak
