POOR MR.. PUBLIC

We frequently hear the expression
that the public will pay for labor dis
turbance in d higher cost OF living.
The steel strike is a good example.
The workers get an increase in pay.
and the company gets an increase of
IS per ton in the cost of steel, This
increase, because steel is basic com
modify, will result in higher cost Of
living all the way up and down the
line-and the consumers include steel
workers as we'll as others.
But the public pays in another way,
too. Because Of loss Of profits the
manufacturer can charge of losses
on his l945 and 1916 income taxes.
And the worker will have fewer to
pay because he didn't earn money
during the enforced idlcness. This
means that Uncle Sam will not col
lect as much money in the way of
taxes in 1916 as he would have col
lected if recOnvcrsion had continued
at a normal pace. This means, in
turn, that unless he cuts expenditures
sharply Uncle Sam will have to raise
the tax rates or 90 further in debt.
In either event the public pays again,
because after all the public is the
government.
In the meat industry the price Of
meat to the consumer is to go up at
least one and half per cent. be-
cause Of increased cost Of operation.
1t is recommended further, by the
left-wingers. that in order to hold
down the cost Of living. made essen
tial by higher labor costs, that the
packers and other professors be paid
subsidies. If this is done then the
public, who pays the taxes, will be
paying to the packers and other pro-
cessors, in subsidies, the increased
wages which We're grantd by the
Federal fact-finding boards.
1t is to be remembered that the sub
sides are to be paid to professors to
keep down prices to the consumer.
They are not to be paid to the
farmers to stimulate production. al
though increased production is the
answer to higher prices. To say that
the situation is confused is putting
it mildly. But one thing is clear
the public always gets it in the neck.

He was a comedy drummer in
vaudeville when he wrote his first hit
songs for struggling girls trio.
When the trio fiourished, Bud won
dered how best to capitalize on his
new-found talent. At last he found
the answer: Organize another trio.
This is the kind of logic that re-
duoes young careers to the vanishing
point, but somehow Bud was spared.
In the past five years he has got
into the groove, hammering out the
words and music for 800 to $50 CON-
edy songs for some of the show worlds
top entertainers.
This adds up to a l4-hour day,
complete anonymity outside the trade
(his songs have never been published
commercially and more business than
he can handle.
QUICKY. The grind has its compen-
sations, however. Bud gets up to
800 for each of his songs, which
take him no more than quick couple
of hours to write and a fast three
minutes to perform.
The songs themselves are jumpy
and topical Sample title: I'VE Got a
Cuffless, Pleatless, Beltless, Seatless,
Vestless, Shapeless. Chestless,
Dressedless. Waistless. Tasteless,
Moneyless Victory Suit"
Bud fits his songs to the talents of
his clients after careful study of their
acts. Such specialists as Jerry Lester,
Romo Vincent, Bert Wheeler, Beatrice
Kay and Imogene Coca all possess
Burtson ballads in their repertoire.
