Warning
On Wages

NEW YORK. Oct IA policy
of moderation in settling disputes
and problems arising from recon
version from wartime 10 peace
time production is urged by DR.,
Leo Wolman, professor OF eco
Monies of Columbia University,
and trustee of the Mutual Life
Insurance Co. of New York.
Speaking before regional con-
ference held by Mutual Life, DR.
WOlman warned that faulty think
ing of decade ago has led this
country into policy of admit
ting TO the school of thought that
raising of wage rates simply has
beneficial effects and in no way
affects prices.
"Forceful and fortnight pub
lie opinion il necessary to help
the muddled thinking of some
policy makers that consumer
prices could be held although
wage rates are increased" he
declared.
He cited the case of one firm
forced TO curtail production be-
cause il could not reduce its
wage scale TO meet competition
with similar manufacturers. The
thinking" in this case, he con-
tinued, was that if the firm was
permitted TO reduce wages, il
would start a countrywide deiia-
ton. / do not hold to this theory
Rather, ! believe that il is def.
nitely dehationary if a firm is not
permitted TO meet competition
and is forced Out of business.

SECRET CONTRACT

The company'S long range prod
uct centers around the gas turbine
engine. Menasco has been working
with Lockheed Aircraft Corp. on
such engines for several years
under a secret experimental army
contract.
I've predict that gas turbines
no larger than shoe box will
power your automobile" said
Lee. INSTEAD of seven pounds
weight per horsepower n the
present type Of automobile en-
CINE, the ration will be one and
One-half pounds per horsepower.
And with the gas turbine YOU
will use only as per cent as
much fuel for the same per-
fUrmaHCP.
MenaSCo'S recOnVerSion objective
Is high productivity.
High productivity il the key
To full employment, plus good
wages and sustained purchasing
power. plus low costs to the
consumer" he said.
PAY CHECK PUNCH
Management can provide the
technology and mach inery
needed for high productivity but
labor has to provide the will TO
do il. IL won't work unless the
individual empfOye understands
the relationship between what
he does and what he gets for it,
Lee is keen on good relation
ships with his employees and en-
courages cooperation OF labor
with management. He is develop
ing and discussing with the union
wage incentive plan so as to put
pay check punch in the principle
of high productivity.

Traffic was blocked on Third and

But the delay didn't dampen
the enthusiasm. The din set up
by the chorus of voices. applause,
auto horns, and assorted noise-
