We can guard against the bottom

Dupuyer, Montana
By BRUCE WAYBUR

| picked up a clue recently on why
our foreign policy isn't running so
smoothly. 1t was the appointment
by Paul G. Hoffman, Marshall plan
administrator, of committee to adj
wise him on which German war plants
should be saved from destruction as
required by the Potsdam agreement.
Looking at the men on that commit
tee, you get an idea why people in
Europe don't trust the Marshall plan.
The committee consists of Chair
man George M. Hanna, president OF
the M. A. Hanna Company, Cleve-
land; John l.. Mccartney, president
of international Harvester; Gwilym
A. Price, president of Westinghouse;
Frederick V. Geier, president of Gin
cinnati Milling Machine Company;
and Charles E. Wilson, president OF
General Motors.
That committee alone goes long

what Mr.. Wilson's advice to Mr.
Hoffman will be.
Take John L. Mccartney of Inter
national Harvester. His firm had at
least two big subsidiaries in Ger
many before the war = plant in
Berlin worth SIS million and a plant
in the Ruhr which employed 1000.
The Ruhr plant is now in operation,
making tractors and other farm ma
chinery. Can you guess how Mr..
Mccartney will advise Hoffman?
Under Roosevelt, the United States
was a good neighbor and good part
ner in the fight against the Axis.
Today, our foreign policy is run by
men who were good friends of the
Axis industrialists whose factories
are now being spared and who are
getting off in their war crimes trials
with mere slap on the wrist.

Are We Headed For
A Depression?

In the past 100 years of this coun-
try's history there have been As bust
ness cycles. In almost every case
these took place when prices, profits
and business confidence were at high
levels just as at present.
What are the economic symptoms
pointing to a depression?
Consumer prices in August were
at the record level of 1857 above
the 1859 average.
Corporation profits before taxes,
on an annual basis, rose from $24.7
billion in the first quarter of 1913
to 5000 billion in the second quar-
ter.
Real wages per worker has drop
ped Is percent since 1914.
Retail sales are falling off in such
consumer goods as textiles, mems
wool apparel, shoes, radio, and small
electric appliances.
Inventories have reached the rec
ord level of $50 billion.
In the past, military expenditures
have served to prop up production.
But it is widely recognized that even
substantial boosts in military spend
ing will not prevent the consumer
goods industries from sagging while
they will keep prices and profits 60
ing up and workers buying power
going down. (Sources: Depression

way to explain why there is a crisis
in Berlin. Our wartime allies are
afraid we mean to rebuild the same
kind of Germany it took 81 years
to lick. With this kind of commit
tee to advise Hoffman, they don't
see much chance that the German
war plants will be destroyed and that
the machinery in them will be
shipped as PREPARATIONS to the coun-
tries devastated by Hitler's armies.
Take Charles E. Wilson, for. ex-
ample. His firm, General Motors,
has a plant in Germany-the Opel

The following letter by Mrs. John Fitz-

AS long as he has price support, the
farmer doesn't have to worry too much
about the natural functioning of his
economy and the law of supply and
demand-he has it beat. The govern
ment worked out parity formula so
that the prices the farmer obtains for
his products keep up with the prices
he has to pay for commodities he buys
from industry. The government is
presently prepared to loan up to
80 per cent of that parity or fair price
value if the farmer cannot sell for it
on the market After next year, the
loan scale will slide from so to go
per cent of parity. The Southern cot
ton farmer, who has put up such a
fight against federal appropriations
for education, actually got the gov
eminent to put up loan value of
921a per cent. Thus far wheat, eggs,
and potatoes in the foods and cotton
are being supported. Wheat prices
dropped third in recent months, but
they won't drop lower because sup
port prices have gone into effect. But
bread, which went up with the price
of wheat, hasn't come down now. The
millers are thwarting any drop. They
say they are losing money on farm
feed by-products which the farmers
are not buying because it is cheaper
to feed livestock and poultry home
grown corn. So millers are maintain
ing their profits on the price. of flour
which goes into the bread we eat.
CONGRESS EMAscULATED ccc
STORAGE FACILITIES
There is one other hitch in the sup
port price for the grain the farmer
gets He must have storage space be-
fore the government will pay him the
support price. In other years the
Commodity Credit Corporation, which
makes the loans on their crops, was
empowered by law to expand its stor-
age facilities. At one time it had
bins for 3oo,0oO,oOo bushels but Con-
gresham WaIcott's Banking Commit
tee and the 8Oth Congress emascuIat-
ed the charter of the Commodity Cred
it Corporation or the CCC so that it |
cannot lease or purchase any private |
for storage. And, lacking |
storage, wheat farmers already have
sold millions of bushels of wheat at
from ten to fifteen cents below the
support price. That wouldn't be re-
'lected in any reduction of the cost
IF bread because when all this So
called distress wheat has been NOV
I'd, the price will go right back to the
support level. The farmer will be out
he protection; the cash grain spec
llator and the millers will have made j
new pile. Maybe this will cause
more grain farmers to join co-ops \
which have storage facilities. S
"The e0th Congress didn't only ham, +
tring the CCC storage facilities, it c
ept the United States out of the In I
irrational Wheat Agreement which v
WOULD have helped assure farmers +
arge stable export market at fair t
rice. Past experiences have taught
ut probably not to the extent that E
