False

One of the pet refrans of the National Association of
Manufacturers that the blame for initiation and high prices
the trade unions because they have been
winning higher wages for the nations working and
women.
The NAM. has spent thousands of dollars repeating
and the hackneyed theme that high wages
responsible for high prices.
How false this is be by glance at the official
figures released by the u. s. Department of Commerce
These figures show that-regardless of what the NAM
sayst is corporation profits and not high wages that is
primarily responsible for initiation.
During the period from the convenng of the 80h Con-
gress in January 1947 until that Congress adjourned last
summer, corporation profits shot up 65 per cent
During the period wages and salaries advanced
only 13 per cent.
Next time anyone says anything to you about high
wages causing initiation, quote them these facts
