A STATEMENT OF FACTS

There seems to be much confusion as to u economic condition and
the problem of wages and prices. Scarcely a day goes by without a yarn
in some newspaper to the effect that when wages go up there must fol-
low the corresponding rise in prices. Many newspapers are printing the
lie that our entire reconVersiOn and production program has been
,Stymed.
First, let's see about wages and prices. The truth is that wages have
not brought OF higher prices. Wages have Jagged far behind prices. The
price increases the public must pay today have scared far beyond the
ability of the Wageearners to meet them. Incidentally, profits area t an
alltime high IS we'll The reports of the big corporations themselves
furnish ample proof of this fact.
Now what about wages? After a survey of the problem, the Fed
eal Trade Commissions statlsticians report that wages average only
Is percent of the cost Of production. Thus, when wages so up 10 percent
such a wage raise might force a price boost of two and one half percent
heve that the price boosts are due to wage increases II deliberately
disappearing the facts. The wage increases in almost every instance
could be absorbed without raising prices.
Industry and business are not being plunged into chaos. In fact
they found a way to make eleven billion dollars in profits in 1945 after
paying taxes, though profits in the peacetime years of 1896 to 1899
averaged slightly less thar four billion. The official report of the Ma
ional City Bank of New York for 1916 says that profits are almost
double that of the preceding quarter" National Dairy, the nations
largest dairy company, and BOrdens' show profits of 70 and so percent
higher than in the same period of 1915. Goodyear Tire profits are up
100 percent in a year. American Wooden Company profits are 200 per
cent over last year.
The truth: wage increases have not brought on the present high
prices; they are due almost entirely to eagerness for high and still higher
profits-The Progressive Miner.
Proletarec. [volume] (Chicago, Ill.) 1906-19??, 1946-11-13
SECONDARY WAR PROFIT

From Washington comes the new that government agencies n
handling out valuable information, useful in industrial operations, to
the private profit interests who have grown rich by supplying the needs
of the war.
Here is a secondary profit that a few people IRE going to reap from
IN sacrifice slaughter that has vctmized the American people
We call attention to the fact that the government is handing scien-
tic information to corporations, not because we think that such facts
and figures as the government hs; should be hidden or DESTROYED. How
ever, we do object to permitting private interests to ISL information to
make further "a profits at the publics expense.
Giving the fruits of scientific study to the privateers of capitalism
is part of the capitalist racket just IS much as was the failure of the
Roosevelt administration to plan in advance to use for the public well
fare industries that were built and equipped by the use of many millions
of the peoples dollars.
If the investment was public money, the material and knowledge
gained by such money should now be used by and for the public
welfare.
When the a broke upon the nation private capital lost its taste
for private capitalism and refused to capitalize the additional plants
needed to supply the nations needs. But now that the government has
something to give they r ready to take.
Big business, much more than workers who demand more wages
are always N the gimme" subsequently, when what they get is a
chance to make easy money for a long time to concentrating Labor

UNEMPLOYMENT
COMPENSATION

Manufacturers and employers
generally fear an increase in week
ly compensation pay during periods
of unemployment.
They point out that in ten years
they've paid out of their oWn peck
cts, SO they claim, the huge sum of
little more than ten billion of dol
lars. Of this sum, one-third has
been paid out as unemployment
compensation, the balance remains
for future payment.
Employers cry with alarm at
any proposed increase.
Their claim that it comes out of
their pockets is pure unadulterated
eye-Wash. 1t comes out of their pro-
fits-profits built by their workers.
Their claim that workers prefer
unemployment pay to jobs is more
baloney. Except for discharged
service men, who feel, and perhaps
rightly SO that they are entitled to
a little vacation, not one man in a
thousand with family responsible
ties, prefer that weak tea dole to a
man = sized job and man = sized
wages.
Tie Chicago Journal of Com
merce points out that approxim-
ately 5000 workers in Illinois are
drawing unemployment compensa-
ton as an argument against in
creasing the dole because it keeps
people idle. Isn't it a shame that
$4,000 r unemployed, represent
ing a total of approximately 2 per
cent of the total working popula-
ton? Just think Of it-banish I'M
employment compensation to stifle
SO per cent of the workers because
two per cent are drawing it!-The
Progressive Miner.
Proletarec. [volume] (Chicago, Ill.) 1906-19??, 1946-11-13
WHEN DO WE EAT?

Whether o not there are 100000 jobs, as advocated by Henry
Wallace we don't know but We wonder what good any kind of a job
is when n can't buy the elementary necessities of life with wages
such as they are after various payroll deductions.
Clothes, work o dress, m absolutely bogus; they are neither
warm in the winter nor cool in the summer and are in noWise service
able. 1t must be much more trouble to make shoes that will come apart
in a few weeks than to sew them right
There is plenty of beef, pork and mutton on the hoof but none to be
had in the butcher shops. The components of the available lunch meat
loafs and potted meats should be used to make dog biscuits and fertilizer
instead of being sold at fancy prices. Doubtless the power politicians
who are playing for world favor with American eats re afraid to send
such junk to other countries
If the needy of the recent depression times were given for nothing,
the KIND OF meals now sold for heavy prices in restaurants their leaders
would be bounding the public welfare officials.
The American people are a patient and good natured lot, but once
aroused, are vicious. 1t the packers, politicians and the alphabetical
agencies do not cut out their Glowing, they may awake some morning
to find their playhouse wrecked-Miners Voice.
Proletarec. [volume] (Chicago, Ill.) 1906-19??, 1946-11-13

thru both their cooperatives and
their government.
However,, people have not yet
pooled sufficient resources in their
cooperatives to cope successfully
with many of those actions of mo-
nopolies which are carrying us
headlong into an economic crisis.
It is not likely that they will do so
in the time that remains for or
receive action. In order to step up
sufficiently their economic activ-
tiles, they need the resources which
millions of people, now, outside of
the cooperative movement, have
pooled in their democratic govern
ment. Some of these resources have
already been utilized thru the Bank
of Cooperatives and the Rural Elec-
t~rification Administration. Much
more assistance of this type would
be provided by the government if
cooperatives developed the proper
means thru which to request and
to utilize it.
In view of the peoples desperate
fight against the abuses of monop-
oily capitalism and the limitations
in the present situation of their &C
ton thru either government or CO.
operatives alone, this Congress &C
cepts as a fact the necessity for CO.
operatives and the government to
work together more closely in the
future than they have in the past.
The Congress, therefore, directs
the Leagues Board of Directors to
analyze and subsequently to deve-
lop such positive working relations
with government as will enable
people who are working to fight
monopolies thru either government
or cooperatives to give each other
increased assistance in realizing
their common objective.-Resolu-
ton adopted by the National Co.
operative Congress, at Columbus,
Ohio.
