WE DON'T CLAIM to know much about astronomy,
but can tell you something about those flying saucers
everybody is seeing. We sat down and thought it ont
Were we missing anything Right off. we knew that
we We're missing a lot of things we used to buy every
week, things we can't afford now.
That's how we discovered that those saucers must
be dollars flying out OF our pay envelope every week,
dollars that we lose because prices are so much higher
than they used to be.
Sure, were joking. But, its no joke that the work.
ingman is losing almost SO a week out OF his nav
envelope. Not in deductions. mind you. But. because
tho dollars you get now buy so much less than they
did. say, in l9ii-the last full year Of the war.
Some people like to say that labor is responsible
for prices going up. That is nonsense. All the wage
increases in the last Is months have boosted the cost
OF manufactured goods only s cents on the dollar nm
prices Of these same manufactured goods have gone
up % cents on the dollar.
That is serious. Already goods we can't afford ore
piling up on store shelves and in warehouses. Fac.
tories aren't selling as much as they did. Some plants
have started laying off.
Montana labor news., 1947-07-24

According to the school books, competition is sup
posed to take care of this situation. Competition Is
supposed to force manufacturers to cut then prices III
order to sell more goods. That's the way it used to
work. But, some employers are choosing to shut down
rather than cut their prices. They make just as much
with prices high.
Higher wages alone won't solve this problem OF
dwindling purchasing power. A second solution, one
now being urged by the AFL, is that working people
take matters into their own hands and 90 into business.
Not individually, of course, but comparatively. We
aren't suggesting that cooperatives are going TO re-
Mace private industry. but they can provide a check on
reckless business profits. They already are providing
tho farmers with just that kind of safety valve.
Many trade unions have been on record for years
in favor Of consumer cooperation. We suggest that
the time has come for machinists to start getting
acouainted with the Coops in their own towns. If you
can't find a Coop write to this paper and we will gladly
mt YOU in touch with the Cooperative League of the
u. S. A..
At least, we can do something besides watch our
huying power get away from Us like those flying saucers

ed by implication as the I'M
fortunate product of oppres-
sion.
The conversation throughout
is made to sound like poor
quotations FIR m one of the
worst of the reactionary Negro
newspapers. Not once does the
book come to serious grips with
the economic realities OF Amer
lean Negro slavery.
The basic situation is one
shot through with unreality
and correctly susceptible to
skepticism by the intelligent
reader. There is no reason for
the reader to understand why
Kingsblood talks of the mig
gers" in one breath and longs
to be one with the Negroes. in
the next.
In fact the book reads very
much like juvenile tomfoolery.
Maybe Lewis was sincere in
his intentions. He has undoubt-
edly written good books and
has wide leadership. All the
more reason to condemn an
effort written without knowl-
edge or understanding that re-
duces a critical issue to trite-
ness and banal social situa-
ton.

To the Editor:

Howard Fast wrote column
last week based on Sinclair
Lewis latest novel Kings
blood Royal The column was
a great deal more a tribute to
Fast's goodness of heart than
it was to his critical sense.
1t smacked of too-present
willingness among progressive
people to accept a little bit
from the great name for the
sake of the power of the name,
rather than seek out and bring
to the attention of the people
the great works by men Of lit

Lewis book was so full of
the cliche, with so much trans
lation of the typical Lewis
character into what he calls
"sepia" technicolor, that it be-
came apparent after the book
was half-read that he wrote
from ignorance. Let's grant his
heart was in the right place,
that his book is vigorous and
positive" in terms of the prob
lem he set for himself.

state that this amounts to
damn when his characters who
are allegedly the protagonists
of the Negro people are in one

is unaware of reality, in a third

the fact that there are such
people, black and white. OF
course, there are.

intelligent progressive in the
book is shaped into bright
fellow, but misguided, who
talks out Of the side of his
mouth without too much con-
bent, at that and is interpret

To the Editor:
The meeting in the Stadium

giving this town something TO
talk about.
This is the first time in Chi

admission to hear a political

time we've had statesman
like Mr. Wallace. VINO envisions
that no person in the world
