YOU
by Ruth Taylor

It's up TO you! Whatever
the question be, whatever the
crucial problem confronting
the country today, the solu-
ton is up to you. Tor in either
a republic or a democracy the
power is vested in the indi-
vidual--and that means you!
When we speak of national
unity, we mean national one
ness-a cohesion of all ele-
ments into one. You are that
one!
Through your vote you have
the power to effect whatever
changes you wish. Your vote
is as potent as that of any man
in the country. But if you
neglect to Vote-don't COM
plain of the government that
is elected.
Yours is the responsibility.
You can't expect cooperation
if you are not cooperative.
You can't expect fair play un-
less you are willing to play
fair. You can't pirate about
discrimination if you discrimi-
nate against others. You can't
whine about taxes and then
complain when you don't get
the service you expect from
the COVE ernm m n of your
choice.
You have to be kind. You
have to be tolerant. You have
to work. 1t all begins and
ends with YOU.
Neither industrial disputes
nor international problems
can be settled from the top.
You have to begin with your
self. To achieve cooperative
action, you yourself must be
willing to cooperate in the
problems of every day living.
But you must stand firm on
the ideals in which you be-
lieve. You must be articulate
for the right, and-if you are
You can be power for good
in yourself.
What the future holds de-
pends upon you-upon me
upon each and everyone of us
as individuals. That is what
a republic means. That is
what democracy stands for. 1t
is a personal responsibility 1t
is up to yOu-and me-and all
of us who have pride in our
American citizenship-to do
our individual best.

Regional

By Richard Gosser
Director Region 2B, UAW-ClO

ATLANTIC CITY, NJ j.. March 26-One (
OF the most important resolutions to come be-
fore the UAW convention here deals with
wages and prices and will bring out one of
the big issues which exists in the labor
movement
Ever since the beginning of collective bar
gaining, the labor movement has gone along
on the basis that when wage increases were
required, they would be negotiated without
taking into consideration the need for holding
down prices. wages were wages and prices
were prices and never did the two meet
We are awake today to the necessity for
getting wage increases without at the same
time having increases in prices which we must
pay as consumers of the things we make
There Is no gain when we get an increase
of 1874 cents in one pocket and at the same
time we are forced to pay it out of the other
pocket in increased prices. We are running
on tread mill and going no place
REAL GAINS
Real gains cannot come to the wage earn
erS when their increases are purchased by
holding still for increase in the prices which
they must pay for things they require: food,
clothing, rent and other commodities.
That isn't gain but merely giving ourselves
more money to handle without getting more
goods for our money.
Our gains can only be accomplished by
holding down prices when we get wage in
creases, making our gain in real wages some
thing worthwhile. Or we can do the other
thing-try to force down prices and hold the
wage line.
Our whole idea on prices and wages is
based upon the ability of the corporations to
pay. We do not want to bankrupt the cor
porations by unreasonable demands Neither
do we wish to make it possible for the cor
porations to maintain unreasonably high rate
of profit by agreeing to price increases which
the profit and competitive position of the cor /
porations does not warrant.
We are entering a new era where the
unions are not only going to concern them
selves with living wages adequate to main
tain the workers under a high standard OF
living, but are going to more and more insist
that wages must be based upon the ability OF
the cororations to pay just recompense to
the wage earners
This is an issue and we must settle the
policy of the union in dealing with wages and
prices not as separate items, but as two fac
tors in the economic picture which are in
timately related to each other.
