IT'S TIT FOR TAT

The definite, dynamic relation ship which prices bear to wages and wages to prices has been dramatized effectively in recent weeks. To the average American housewife, however, who counts out carefully and apportions out even more carefully her husbands weekly pay, the relationship has been real enough all along.
 To Mrs. Pennythrift, the house. wife, taking her change out of the crockery pot in the cupboard to exchange it for basic family needs, the fact that prices down" repre- sents a real raise" in wages is well understood. With her the basic problem is: How far will the money go? When she has to take

Mir. Lies Questionable Conduct
(ROckv Mountain NeWs)

(Rocky Mountain News)
 THE SPEECH by Secretary General Trygve Lie of the United Nations has been widely interpreted as m direct criticism of President Trumans Greek-Turksh policy.
 If that it's intent-and Mr. Lie seems to have in- spired such advance billingthe secrearys speech should have been more to the point.
 Words should be used to express their purposes, not to conceal them If this country is at fault in any respect MT. Lie should spell it out.
 In it's essence all the speech did to urge willing ness among nations to seek agreement, with "a readi- ness resort to the United Nation when the vital national interests at stake"
 If MT. Lie intended to imply that the United States has not shown sincere desire to get along with the Sov jet Union the shoe doesn't fit and decline to put it on And if he implied that have any selfish national interest in the Mediterranean area sur doesn't make a fact.
 This ugly implication should be supported by evil dence Mr. Lie should be called upon to withdraw it. Our interest in the Greek Turkish situation stems who'll ly from desire to maintain peace and to prevent two small nations from being pushed around by bully. Mr. Lies should be the same as ours if he is as

 The Greek situation has been before the Security Council which Mr. Lie heads since last December The slowness with which investigation got under way, even after ordered, suggests that MT. Lie, him. self, may be partly to blame for the extent to which conditions have deterorated We might not have be- come involved in the at all, had it been handled with expedition.
 The prior incident in which MT. Lie assumed per- sonal initiative when he urged Security Council action against Franco Span-ater that issue had been warmly debated by the council itself
 Mr. Lie has yet to point accusing finger at Russia any of it's satellites although opportunities have been provided him. That he has seemed to front for the Soviet viewpoint in the only two instances in which he has spoken out may be quite concidenta but it is recalled that he Russias candidate for the posi- ton he now holds
 It would be easier to dismiss suspicion of bias, had his comment American policy been withheld until he had heard the statement by the United States which he knew to be made Friday. member state would seem to be entitled to such courtesy.

Federal Taxes
(Daily Alaska Empire)

(Daily Alaska Empire)
 IN 1946 THE FEDERAL government collected in in come tax collection from Alaska the huge of $15- 187 544 This is why the Territorial Legsla ture just ended had some difficulty in finding tax enues to bring in about half of that amount over two years.
 This is situation which exists not only in Alaska but in all the States and Territories where the national taxes extracted leave little left for the local govern ments.
 A. w. Robertson, chairman of the Westinghouse Elec- tric Corp, was struck by the disparity of the tax schedules that he wrote the following letter all bers of Congress:
 You will be asonished, as was, that paid 37 times much tax to the Federal Government l paid to all other tax collectors Federal tax from 1922 through 1946-$7467 717; all other taxes for the same period $2O20O) What is still remarkable, this $2O 200 paid for all public school facilities, all police protection fire protection sanitary service, including street clean ing and garbage collection While individual tax figures vary similar comparison of services could be shown by practically every taxpayer in the country whether he pays much little to the national government It to me that, unless have embarked openly policy of confscaon of property of the citizens in the guise of taking current income from individuals regard less of services rendered in return Federal taxes must be reduced until they are in line with other taxes"
 MT. Robertson undoubtedly has point which merits bit of pondering by members of Congress- In compari- with the services rendered for the local tax dollars the Federal Government doesn't give the average payer very much for his money War expenses dstort the picture to certain extent of course but the point still holds good

duction of automobiles comes to a peak, still lower prices will sure ly follow.
 While labor leaders thought this a step in the right direction, some of them quickly stated that "price cutting" would have no effect up on their plans for wage drives. Neither industry nor labor look forward to extensive price cutting, particularly without greater pro- duction, nor should either expect to gain from continued wage drives-without better production. The key to the wage-price balance is: more output.

Bigger Pie

Bigger Pie
 One manufacturer has advertis- ed this balance thus: If we want a bigger cut out of the income pie either as management or labor, the best way for all concerned is to bake bigger pie" He continued, You can't cut bigger pieces out of smaller pie. You can't continue to raise wages, anywhere, out of shrinking production" That is right.
 In an industrial democracy like ours, we have a high standard of living largely because our produc- ton of goods has been brought into line with the lowest possible con- sumer prices. Volume production, everytime, means greater value to the consumer at lower prices. It also means more to those who in- vested the capital that bought the tools. And it means more to labor that builds the product.
 Keep "A Balance
 These thoughts may explain why not all of labor has been willing to get behind the banner that indus try can afford 25 per cent gen. eral wage increase without raising prices" The American Federation of Labor has reported its findings that in 1946 an 1872 cent wage in- crease brought increases in living costs of equal amount. The balance of wages and prices is just that close in our economic structure.
 Now is the time for each Ameri- can to understand, along with Mrs. Pennythrift the housewife, that all of us must cooperate in order to use these fundamental economic facts to the advantage of the whole nation. We cannot hope to main tain for long this. free America which we love, unless we seek long range cooperation and understand ing, rather than shortsighted group

Russia to Mobilize
Young Men for Work
May Be Called On TO Toll in
Mines and Factories.

MOSCOW.-That large groups o.
18- and 1~9-year-old youths previ'
ously subject to military service
might be called to dig coal and fol-
training and other service in the in
dustrial machine was announced In
al edict by the Soviet Union.
The step was regarded as another
move emphasizing the Soviet I'm
ions need for trained personnel in
industry and lessening the empha-
sis on military duty. In its fifth de-
mobilization order in two years the
Soviet Union last February ordered
the release of several thousand
colder" men from the armed serv-
ices for jobs in factories and agri-
culture.
The decree affecting youth was
passed on by the presidium of the
Supreme Soviet. 1t gives the cabi-
net authority to mobilize annually
for industry these groups Of youths:
Boys, IA to II inclusive, and girls,
Is to 16 inclusive, for training in
craft and railway schools.
Boys and girls, 16 to 10 inclusive.
for training in factory schools.
Boys Of 10 for underground work
In the coal industry, steel welding,
mining and other professions Of the
metallurgical and oil industries.
This effected a change in a de-
cree passed on October 2, 194o, for
calling state labor reserves. Preyi-
ously boys Of IA and Is and girls of
IS and 16 were called to craft and
railway schools and boys of 16 and II
and girls of 16 to IS to factory
schools.
Thus youths Of IS and 10, pre-
viously unaffected by call-ups for
industrial training and service be-
cause they were eligible for army
training, now go into civilian group
ings. No figures were given but
they represent a stable proportion
of Russia's 1913 million persons.

Values Of New Building

632, 186, 900 in the corresponding halt
of the last year, but physical vol
ume this year was about II per cent
below 1916, the Engineering News
Record said.
eff the construction industry is to
reach the predicted total expendi-
ture of 6.5 billion dollars for the
new heavy construction by the end
of this year." the publication point
ed out, cit will be necessary to re-
cord an average of at least l46 mil
lion dollars worth of contracts let
each week for the remaining half
of the year. The current trend
which saw a high average week to
date through June set at lob million
dollars, as compared with l0l mil
lion dollars average through June,
1946-gives no great promise of
reaching the required figure.
The record week in the first half
of 1947, the magazine said, was
June IL, with 1853 million dollars
which was below the 1872 million
dollar record set last year in the
week of June s.
Even though 1947 is dropping be-
low 1916, it was pointed out, the
current year will not be a bad one
for the industry, since last years
construction total was the third best
in history, including the war years.
