problem is to halt the spiralling
initiation now before it gets out
of hand. But the administration
is doing little else except talk
ing UP another trust busting
campaign. There is nothing
wrong about cracking down on
the monopolies, but the anti
trust actions launched SO far

won't bring prices down in
the near future.
PAST experience has demon
strated that it usually takes
years to win antitrust suits.
Meanwhile, the monopolies are
continuing to raise prices and
thumbing their noses at the re-
quests of the administration to
lower them. BY the time con-
victions are obtained-assum-
ing that the government means
business-it will be question
of locking the barn door after
the monopolists have stolen the

larger than during the record
breaking first half. They will
be higher at the expense of the
welfare of the people. Despite
larger money wages, following
the two rounds of wage in
creases won by the unions in
1916 and l947, the real wages
of workers-what they can buy
with the dollars in their pay
envelopes-were AZ lower in
mid-l947 than the year before.
Compared with the wartime
peak in 1914, real wages today
are lO% lower and are still
dropping.

BY THE ECONOMIST

The end of summer finds in
flation reaching new all-time
peaks. Wholesale prices rose
steadily during July and Au-
gust and are now well above
their previous high of last
spring. Paced by the price
gouges in coal and steel, prices
are moving ahead throughout
the economy.
The result is that living costs
are higher than ever before.
Meat, eggs and dairy products
have skyrocketed. Ten dollars
today at the grocery store won't
buy what five dollars bought
before the war. 1t now takes
$3.50 to purchase clothing that
cost $40 in 1889.
Living costs show no signs
OF coming down. Rents are NOV
ing up under the totally made
quate rent control legislation
passed by the congressional
stooges of the real estate lobby.
Children's and adults clothing
this fall will be 10 to 209o
higher than last spring. Shoe
prices are being lacked up.

greed for super-profits are fore

inflationary whirl. The Natl.

can think of a few. There are
many Americans VINO think the
workers get all the cars they
produce, and they might get
quite shock to see blue and
green car lines, with the blue
line so much longer than the
green. Or take these car price
increases.
1t would be quite a surprise
to the workers themselves to
see more profit cars and less
wage cars after prices had gone
up. They might begin asking
why doesn't Charlie just give
US more blue cars instead of
raising prices? He'll still have
plenty of profit cars left over"
THEN. too, Charlie might find
1t a bit embarrassing to explain
why there were SO many blue

managerial ability fully entitled
him to that string.
And every time the workers

asking productive of what?

easy to explain.
Charlie is better off sticking
to the more orthodox methods
of pointing up the virtues of
free enterprise. After all, full

money, because it has all those
other stories and pictures to

Mr. Wilson, here's how you can show YOUR color.

could suggest few more. Take
General Motors, for example.
You know, all the cars turned
out by the GIN workers can
be divided into some that pay
for the wages, those that cover
materials, wear and tear, etc.
and those that bring the profits.
Now Charlie Wilson, who
runs GIN - for dupont ~ could
put Parker Pen to shame with
a few novel gags. Suppose he
had all the wage cars painted
green, all the profit cars blue.
and those that cover. other
costs maroon. We wouldn't
argue about the colors: ne could
pick any color combination he
wanted-he might want to use
red for the wage cars.
This would be much better
than the Parker stunt, because
