MIR. FRANKENsTEEN OPENS: No

NIX. ERANkENSTEEN OPENS: No
one can question the desirability OF
guaranteeing annual income to work
ers in American industry. Uncer-
tainty over the next paycheck is a
bad thing for the worker and his
family. It is equally bad for the COM
munity that depends on the workers
buying power. Insecurity for Ameri-
can workers is insecurity for America
Conditions in the automobile indus
try have often been cited as evidence
that annual wages cannot be guaran-
teed. Heavy seasonal layoffs bringing
unemployment to hundreds of thou
sands were regular during the 1905
and when depression hit people SIM
ply stopped buying cars. Executives
of the industry themselves, receiving
very handsome guaranteed annual
wages, ask how such an unstable in
dustry can guarantee stable employ
ment and stable wages to its work
ers? Our answer is that 1949 need not
be another 1929. For the first time in
its history the auto industry can be
sure of capacity operations for at
least 3 postwar years. If profits and
markets are now guaranteed the auto
industry and other key industries
these guarantees of profits must now
be transformed into wage guarantees.
If industry can plan its expenditures
for machinery, office workers and
executives salaries, why not plan
expenditures for its labor too? That
Is part of the CLIO program to keep
markets from collapsing after a quick
war boom. Today, without risk for it
self, industry can give workers rea-
sonable guarantees for an annual
wage. This would help create stable
markets for years to come, thus as
surfing the ability to guarantee wages
far into the future.
DR. WOLMAN CHALLENGES: No
postwar profits and markets are
guaranteed the automobile industry
or any industry. To use the word
guarantee" that way is to misuse it.
The truth is the postwar outlook for
the automobile industry, and many
other industries, appears unusually
good. If this forecast is realized, the
automobile industry and its labor will

years, and no guarantees are needed
After this, due to the accumulation
of 5 years of unsatisfied demand, the
industry stands good chance of con-
tinuing to prosper only if its costs
are low, the quality of its product
high. Guaranteeing annual wages will
raise anticipated costs by substantial
amounts-discourage both the con-
sumner and employer.
MR.. FRANKENSTEEN REPLIES:
Over 81 billion dollars is now avail
able in the U. S. Treasury to COM
pensate industry for losses or for less
than normal profits. This is a guar
antee of profits provided in the Rev.
enue Act for two-year period after
the war or reconversion. This, plus
assured markets, enables industry
now to guarantee regular work and
regular wages to workers without
risk. BY so doing industry will guar
antee itself efficient workers. The
assured buying power of such work
ers will extend and stabilize post
war prosperity much beyond any
"three-year period. When you guar
antee wages for workers, you guar

HITLER ALSO PROMISED MUCH

There should be new definition for
so-called liberal" parties. They always
seek public support under the guise of CIV
ing the common man" whoever he may
be, greater liberty, opportunity and ease of
living. But, contrary to their preachings,
they invariably seek to bind him with the
shackles of state control.
The destruction of personnel liberty
and private property rights would be no
sweeter under the term, liberalism" than
under the term, "Hitlerism."

DIR. woLMAN OPENS: Labor can.

DIR. WOLMAN OPENS: Labor can
not be guaranteed an annual wage in
the u. S. if we wish to retain the
essential features Of a privately
owned, privately managed economic
system employing and dealing with
free labor. An all-powerful central
government doubtless can give some
kind Of work to large numbers of
people at some Kind of an annual in
come. The price of an annual wage
under such conditions would be the
sacrifice of precious and fireplace
able personal liberties. assume we
are not talking about that kind of
guarantee. Contracting to guarantee
an annual wage under our system of
economic and political freedom would
make conditions not better but worse
for labor and the rest of us. The prin-
cipal reason for this conclusion is that
a guaranteed annual wage, unless it
is so small as not to be worth much,
would act as tax on employment.
Taxes on employment discourage en-
ployment. An employer confronted
with fixed charge Of large n1agni-
tude would necessarily try to reduce
! that charge to a minimum, and would,
i therefohe, employ les people than H
HE were comparatively free; TO stake
a chance on the future Of his busi-
ness. Such taxes on employment have
been multiplying rapidly during the
past Is years. They constitute the
most effective threats to good EN-
ployment and high living standards
in the postwar. Sound policy should
counsel us not to add to these taxes
but examine existing ones for the
purpose of seeing how they can be
kept within bounds.
MIR. FRANKENSTEEN CHAL-
LENGES: An annual wage is a tax
upon employment, says DR.. Wolman.
Couldn't the doctor argue more ac-
curately that wage increase is a tax
on employment? Why not, then, de-
mand wholesale wage cuts with the
elimination of social security taxes
to encourage employment and to de-
fend free enterprise from the dread
clutches of an all powerful totalita-
rian government. DR.. Wolman's argu-
ments evade the point entirely. The
annual wage requires that manage
ment plan and stabilize its business
for the purpose of providing regular
employment and regular wages to
workers. That is not totalitarianism
or confscatory taxation: it is plain
good sense.
DIR. WOLMAN REPLIES: The
question is whether guaranteed an
nual wages are feasible under pri-
vately owned, competitive economic
system. They are not. A general re-
quirement of such guarantees would
discourage employment for the SIM
Pile reason that individual business
men could not afford to take the risks
involved in assuming the costs of
guaranteeing large payroll for some
time in the future. In order to mini
mize these risks they would neces-
sarily keep their forward living down
to a minimum. Under the circum-
stances, a relative minority of the
lwork-force would receive regular EN-
ployment and regular annual wages,
while the balance would be either
entirely unemployed or employed as
lcasual or temporary labor,

Spain 10 Be Good;
 Promises

MADRID, Oct. 12-GeneraliSsimo Francisco Franco's government, in a move generally interpreted as a bid for support both at home and abroad, held out to the Spanish people today the promise of a re- storation of civil liberties and ann nesty for political prisoners.
 The promise, extended in an offi- cial announcement which followed a prolonged cabinet session last night, is expected to be implement ed by publication of formal de- cree in the near future.
 Specifically, the announcement said the government had decided to:
 CD Restore the right of assembly and guarantee individual liberties; @ Carry out all the provisions of tie 1945 Bill of Rights; (3 Con- duct municipal elections during the first two weeks of March, 1946; (4) Extend amnesty to political pris- oners convicted before the end of the civil war on April 1, 1889, and (5) Grant referendum, or plebescite, on important laws.
 The promise of a referendum was viewed as paving the way for an expression of public opinion on re- of the monarchy.

GERMAN GENERAL

ROME, Oct. 12 Gen. Anton Dostler, first German general to be tried in Western Europe as a war criminal was convicted by an American Military Tribunal today and sentenced to death for order ing the summary execution of l5 U. s. soldiers captured behind the German lines in Italy.
 The verdict was announced short ly after the five-man commission sitting in judgm ent on Dostler had taken the case under consid- eration yesterday.
 The conviction must be reviewed by the Commander of Allied forces in the Mediterranean theatre be- fore death sentence can be carried cut.
 The American soldiers, with whose death Dostler was charged, died before a German firing squad at La Spezia on March 26, 1944. They had landed on the Italian coast from rubber boats on mis- sion to blow up a railway tunnel.
 Dostler's defense was based on the contention he had acted under a blanket order from. Adolf Hitler to execute all Commandos and that he consulted with his superiors be- fore the execution was carried out.
