dWelt at length On schools and
highways.
North Carolina, he said, is the
only state in the union operating
a nine-month, Upgrade school
term solely from state funds and
maintaining and constructing all
state roads.
"All other states" he said,
"give some aid to both, but in
no case more than so per cent
of the cost.
"Other states have fine roads
and school systems where there
is wealth, but in those sections
where very little wealth exists.
the people are left largely to their
own resources to have such
schools and roads as they can pro-
vide for themselves.
"We take the position in North
Carolina that just because a boy
or girl lives in a rural section
where there is very little wealth
and where people themselves
could not have good roads and
schools, they should not be pena-
lized.
Here, the state sees to it they
have equal opportunity with those
who live in communities where
wealth is abundant"
Praise for the financial position
of the state also was given by
the gubernatorial candidate.
He called attention to the fact
that FOR the first time in 100 years

johnson also declared that there
is enough money in the highway
fund to liquidate the highway
debt, but said this would not be
done Immediately as the money
was needed to improve the pre-
sent highway system and build
farm to market roads.

900, 900 bushels, it said.
Officials reported that the short
crop "unquestionably' would re-
suit in a tight feed situation. This
would be reflected in a less than
seasonal drop in meat and poultry
prices this fall with the prospect
of further sharp increases next
spring.
Some cuts in retail meat prices
this fall still are likely since cat
tie and hogs starting to market in
late September were fattened on
last years corn. But the anticipat-
ed drop probably will be temper
ed by higher feed prices.
On the basis of present estl-
mates, the corr crop would be

OBSERVATION-DISCLOSURES
WAGE RISE DEFENSE

BOSTON, NASSAU that he
has tried to do and all that he is
trying to do now is to prove that
wages alone are not responsible
for price increases, Secretary of
Labor, L. B. Schwellenbach said
before the c. I. o. Convention here.
The Secretary emphasized that
ever since VI Day an attempt had
been made to place responsibility
for any price increase upon wage
increases. Explaining this remark
further, he declared that everyone
was familiar with the typical re-
lease given out by any industry
which decides to increase its prices.
He said that the head of that
industry issues pontifical state
ment to the effect that, against
their wishes, it has become neceS-
Sary to increase prices. The reasons
given for it are increases in wages.
On the subject of what has hap
pened to prices during the period
since VI Day and since June 1946
when price control was abolished,
Schwellenbach said that wages
have increased 81 percent from
August 1945 to August 1916, and
that prices during that same period
have increased "a percent. OF that
"a percent, 20 percent occurred
after the lapse of OPA in June of
last year.
On the subject of profits the
Secretary called attention to the
fact that profits since the abolition
of OPA were slightly above 100
percent after the deduction of
taxes. He said that he recognizes
the right of corporation to make
profit, but when profits increase
at this rate, they should bear
substantial portion of the burden
for the price increase since June
1916. Schwellenbach pointed out
that the American people should
realize that the element of profits
is also an important factor in
evaluating the problem of prices.
The Secretary said that an at
tempt is made to blame the admin
istration policy of shipments OF
products abroad for a portion of
the price increase. He pointed out
that during the first half of 1947
we exported 8.8 percent of our
gross national product as compared
with 6.8 percent during the year
1929. Certainly this 2 percent in
crease of our shipments abroad
can bear no substantial relation
