and seen it's tracks where It landed
and which have since been plough
ed over.
Today Marine transport plane
flew over and dropped food and
winter clothing to the six stranded
men, because it is getting very
cold in those parts and there isn't
much to eat. Negotiations for their
release, both local and through
Chungking, thus far have failed
to free them.
Because this area is within the
territory nominally controlled by
the Chinese Communists, the ques-
ton was put up to Communist
representatives in Chungking, who
announced on Dec. that the fliers
were being released.
During the war against Japan
the Communists rescued many
American fliers from behind ia
panese lines, and they would have
little reason now to hold these six
as a matter Of sensible policy.
Getting the local commander,
who may or may not be Com
munist, to release them is another
matter under present circum-
stances.
As mentioned, this is bandit
country, and the Marines could
be held by bandits who happen
to claim right now that they are
Communists.
There has been no mention of a
ransom, but reports thus far have
been meager and the possibility
cannot be counted out.
Chinese bandits can be brutal,
and childlike.

By ROGER W. BABSON

BABSON PARK, Mass, Dec. Is
People may disagree as to tne
seriousness of the present LABOR
situation. The fact, nevertheless
remains that labor unions hold the
same position of power today as
bankers held a generation or TWO
ago.
When I first started my statistl'
cal work forty years ago, the
bankers-both of the large cities
and Of the small communities -
had tremendous power to make
or break manuf acturers,t mer-
chants, and businessmen in gen.
eral. This could be done by grant
ing or withholding credit and ad-
vising others to follow. their ex-
ample. This power was what uL
timately resulted in the govern
ment's practically taking over the
management of the nations. bank
ing. Now, the bankers wings have
been clipped and a banker is only
a businessman like the rest of us.
In those days. labor had very lit
tie power and labor leaders were
looked upon as irresponsible
bolshevists AS the power of the
bankers waned, the power OF labor
leaders has increased. Today,
many labor unions are powerful
enough to make or break any
manufacturer, merchant or other
businessman. Let us hope that
labor will consider it's power a
sacred trust in the. interest of the
people as a whole. If not, our
labor leaders will be dethroned the
same as were the bankers. In a
democracy, no one group can, for
long, abuse its power.
Apart from the abuse of power,
labor is fast reaching point
where it will, kill itself by over:
weight as did the big mastodons
of old. Every group throughout
history has been subject to Sir
Isaac Newton's Law Of Action and
Reaction, commonly known as the
Cycle. This is most simply illus
trated in the case of prices and
production. Prices are high be-
cause production is low; increased
prices cause increased productions;
until finally prices break and they
are back from where they started.
This seems to be a fundamental
law of nature.
The unreasonable wages which
now are being demanded by GER
tain groups will result in forcing
the employers to install more new
labor-saving machinery. "A thou
sand men may, by holding a pistol
up to their employers head, force
an :unjustified Is per cent raise in
wages. But in such a case, the
employer is forced to install labor.
saving machinery and get on. with
$50 men instead Of 1000. Hence,
$50 men are thrown out, .
Companies whose labor expense
is the smallest proportion of thei1
total expense should be the leas
vulnerable to labor troubles. The
following list speaks for itself:
