Paragraph Per Month

At the present rate of progress.
the Paris peace conference will be
ten years or more in completing It's
task. After four weeks the confer
cncc has adopted the first paragraph
OF the peace treaty with Italy, and
presumably there will be at least llo
more paragraphs, so that if a whole
month is required for each of them
that would be 100 months, or ten
years.
Following the first World War the

which is as diabolical as any land

school of thought holds until this

upon the Germans at the end of

World War III may terminate and

about that. And it takes the peace
conference a whole month TO write

Russia Is Aiming

n British Foreign Office spokcS-
man in London has confirmed Of
ficially reports that his government
possesses secret information that
Russia is using German munitions
plants in the Russian occupied zone
TO make war materials in violation
OF the Potsdam agreement. There
we're indications. also. that Britain
IS selling radar equipment to Sweden
Tor the purpose of detecting mySter-
ious rocket-like projectiles which
have appeared over Sweden recently
and were presumed TO come from
Russian occupied territory.
First reports of this kind of Soviet
activity in Germany we're heard a
year ago, and the British foreign
secretary asked Foreign Minister
Molotov for permission to make an
investigation, and this permission
was refused. That was accepted as
tacit admission that the reports were
true. Since that time there have been
continuing stories of illicit munitions
manufacture by the Soviets.
With the war ended more than a
year ago, and If Russia considers
herself at peace and intends TO re-
main at peace with the rest of the
world, why this feverish haste in
preparing for more fighting? There
can, of course, be but one explana-
ton.
Nor is this the only disturbing in
cfdent of the kind. OF late there
have been advices that the Russians
are similarly operating the great
Skoda munitions works in Czecho-
slovakia, one Of the most extensive

Three major perils beset the art-fl-
cial prosperity of 1916; the rise OF
inefficiency; the assumption that
high prices will continue; and the
difficulty of adjusting to past-infla-
ton normal.
The margin of profit in most lines
If business was wide during the war.
Farming was no exception. Farm
prices doubled from 1889 to 1916.
Net farm income increased ITS per-
cent. Such price increases were
wise. They were a powerful incent-
ative to increase production of war
needed food and fibre. The efficient
farm operator made nice profits, the
operator made satisfactory profits,
There was a general decline Of
Cost consciousness" among large
numbers of farmers. Many seem to
aave forgotten during prosperity that
costs have a persistant tendency to
remain high long after other prices
have fallen.
A great peril for many farmers is
the tendency to confuse Initiation in
come with efficient management.
Many who do not realize that nearly
every farmer has made money during
the past three years, take great pride
in their earnings. These farmers
are reminded that there have been
no foreclosures, no failures, no re-
ceiverships. In times like these it
doesn't take an efficient farmer to
keep out of the red. Many farms
that have been poorly managed have
shown moderate net earnings.
Some farmers regard the high
prices now current as the new "Nor-
NAL" They seem to forget that after
each of our major wars price re-
action has reduced from profits from
their post war level. There is no
reason to believe that the next few
years will be an exception.
The longer farm prices continue at
the present level, the greater will
be the number of farmers who as
sumo that current prices and profits
are normal. Some who operate con-
servatively the first few months OF
the next year may easily be the ones
to relax their conservatism at
the time it is needed most.
Much of agriculture's difficulty
from 1920 to 1910 was due to the
high indebtedness incurred during
1919 to 1920. Individual farmers
will make the same mistake during
the next year. longtime mortgage
obligations may easily bring un-
bearable annual payments. Charges
of this character require annual pay
ment of a stated number of dollars.
If profits are cut in half, a fixed
annual charge becomes twice as diff
ficult to pay.
1t is impossible to state what will
be Normal next year, except that
it viii be different from the Normal
which prevailed before the war. In
any event individuals and groups
will have to make adjustment to
postwar Normal" This adjust
ment will probably include a some
what lower level of prices received,
lower profit margins, added neces-
sity for efficiency, and occasional
business failures.

labor costs in general will be higher
during 1947 taan during any pre-
yiouS year. However, farm products
are expected to sell at lower prices
than in 1916. Farm income is eX-
pected to be about fifteen percent
less than in 1916.

Not recognizing this, many farmers
take personal credit for their imam
cial success. When the bubble oI
false prosperity finally bursts, large
number of those farmers will sud-
denly face trouble that is Serious
if not fatal.

Strike Notices
Set New Record

WASHINGTON, April Is -
GPA) - A total of 962 strike
notices currently on file with
the u. S. Cancellation Service
gave government officials an in
dication last week of the extent
of industrial unrest throughout
the nation. In accordance with
the Smith Connally Act all 962
cases are 30-day strike notices
that will expire either in settle
ment or Walkouts next month.
The 962 total was an all-time
high, according to Labor Dept.
computations, breaking the pre-
vious record set last fall. Dur
ing the week ending April 6 the
NLRB conducted 317 polls in
1914 with strikes voted in 27l
cases. Walkouts occurred in only
50 instances, however. Since the
end of 1945 when Congress eli
NLRB strike vote funds
the only government require
ment has been the filing of a
30-day notice.
