VICTORY : AND UNEMPLOYMENT

What kind of an America will we be living in when the war ends?
That question, first asked by thinkers. is now disturbing the serenity
Of more casual people.
The answer depends, largely, upon who will be managing America
upon who will establish the policies under which America will
operate.
If the owners do the managing and if the policies ar those that are
nov advocated by big corporation heads. we can take Mr.. Marion 3.
Folsom, treasurer of Eastman Kodak Co, as our authority.
Mr.. Folsom envisages a nation that, 20 far IS workers arr concerned,
will be pretty much as it was before e won u victory over Hitler and
TOTO. The big owners will continue to own. The workers will continue
10 be exploited under a wages and profits system. And, above all,
there will be al army of unemployed to cast the fear of God and bread
lines into the hearts of those who are fortunate enough to have jobs.
Mr.. Folsom said recently that full employment is impossible"
what ~ and HI fellow economic royalsts want is a surplus labor sup
ply. And the reason they want it is because they know that surplus
workers must be available if the owners are to be able to continue to
rule workers and profit from workers labor.
That's the trouble with the profit system. 1t MUST have a scarcity
Of goods and a surplus of people otherwise the system colapses. With
those two factors assured they can buy labor at their own terms and sell
the product of labor at the prices they set. That's the capitalist game.
And that's why Socialists are unable to compromise with any pro-
posal that enables the private profit system to continue as the way Of
life. Poverty, insecurity, unemployment and war all are normal
results and basic requirements of capitalism. The system breeds those
evils and could not exist without them. When workers complain about
them and still vote for capitalism they are working at cross purposes
And that Socialists will not do.
If Socialist policies were adopted by the American people there
the purpose of industry, a. well a. its ownership, would be different.
When the people own the corporations and manage them democratically,
social welfare and use, instead of sale and profits, will be the purpose
III human activity. Then mankinds ability to produce abundance would
be translated into higher living standards, more leisure for everybody.
retirement benefits at an earlier age than 65 and a higher level.
When human welfare is the purpose of work, it would be as foolish
to have a n able adult unemployed as it would now seem to a profit
seeking owner to have a surplus of idle people within his own industry.
employment IS voiced by the corporation heads of America. How many
war workers can view with approval a plan to cast millions of their
number out of industry? How many soldiers, hearing about what Mr..
FOLSOM says, Will be inspired to greater sacrifices by his words?
And how many Americans will vote for Socialism and security this
year when a new congress and president are eected?-Readng Labor
Advocate.

ART YOUNG

Art Young would be amused if
he could read the comments of the
capitalist press on his personal
lty, his art, and his politics. He was
i lovable soul and a good artists,
SO the lines goes, in spite of his
'heterodox' opinions - heterodox
being a euphemism for Socialist.
We should not go so far as to say
hat Art was a lovable man and a
Inc artist because he was a So
%,ialist, but we do protest that his
personality, his politics, and his art
we're all of a piece. All flowed from
The central spring of integrity, in
telligence, and love which never
failed and which kept sweet by his
gusto for life and a sense of humor
as deep as it was broad. And the
clean simple line characterized
them all. The Nation.

KILLING UNIONS
HITLER'S BIGGEST
MISTAKE-BEVIN

Destruction of the trade unIons,
the cooperative societies and every
other voluntary organization was
the greatest mistake Hitler and the
NaZi bosses ever made, according to
Ernest Bevin, Minister of Labor in
the British War Cabinet, speaking
recently at the Edinburgh confer
ence of the British Transport anc
General Workers Union.
Hitler and the Nazis established
a regime in which nothing sprang
from the bottom and everything
was ordered from the top, Bevin
said, and this has proved fatal tc
the regime.
He himself has been determined
from the very start to follow the
opposite course, Bevin went on. He
has been reluctant to apply the far
reaching compulsory powers which
Parliament has voted him without
first obtaining the voluntary CO.
operation of the people.
The organization of Britain's
manpower has been built on the
principle Of strengthening the vol
untary movements and securing
their wholehearted support, Bevin
explained. If the law had been ap-
piled in any other way England
might have lost the war, he said.

Not Blum, But Stain

Everybody remembers that
from 1886 to 1888 the slogan of
the haute3 b0urgeOise in France
was "Better Hitler than Blum"
Some weeks ago during the
height of the Russian advance
there appeared chalked on the
walls in one of the most conser-
vative towns of France a new
variant on the old theme: you
didn't want Blum; now you have
Stalin." In this small episode is
crystallized the political meaning
of the last decade. The c0nserva-
tives who saw in every popular
movement, from the moderate
socialism of Leon Blum to
Roosevelt's New Deal, the spec
ter of Moscow now faces Moscow
as an indisputabIe reality-the
strongest force in Europe today.

Because that meeting in ancient Iran, the land bridge between the

Understanding among leaders which is the requisite for understanding

We need not guess at the purely military agreements reached From

the fact that peace after this most terrible of all wars would be i'm
possible without full cooperation of the Soviet Union. 1t is known that,
until the Teheran conference, the Soviet Union viewed England and
America with a suspicious eye.
In his Christmas fireside chat, President Roosevelt made it clear
that there had been more than a meeting of minds at Teheran. He in
dictated that the ice of suspicion had been melted and that thoughts
could now flow freely to mutual advantage. We have had assurance
that we would win the war. We may now look forward with hope to
winning the peace-Justice.
