Unemployment Trend
Called Warning 10
All U. 5. Groups
By J. B. WoIIoch
North Amsrieon Newspaper Alliones

NEW YORK, Feb. 3.-Factors
bearing on increased unemployment
warrant serious study at this time
when ounces of prevention can OBJ
viate a later need for pounds of
cure. No single segment OF our
economy alone can stand OF the
current trend. It Is . task that calls
for the best efforts and fullest CO.
operation of all
Government-Federal, State and
local-can help by economizing In
expenditures and deferring tax in
creases. Higher taxes. regardless OF
where the heaviest burdens are
placed, unavoidably will lower con-
sumption and, equally important
the willingness to buy. They also
will defeat attempts being made tt
reduce prices.
Producers Face Task.
Producers must seek in every way
to maintain production schedule.
and thereby keep payrolls intact
Confronted on every side by the
challenges Of buyers market, they
can answer those challenges sue
lcessfully by producing goods priced
so that they will sell. Profit mar
gins must be worked out subse-
quently. This was normal prewaI
procedure.
Distributors at all levels have a
major economic responsibility-sell-
ing. Their function cannot be per-
formed efficiently by merely cutting
inventories to the bone and awaiting
a more favorable turn of trade
events. The market leaders of to-
morrow, or next week, will buy and
promote. They will create business
where others can't perceive it.
Labor has no choice any longer
but to step down from the driver S
seat, throw the whip away, and get
behind the wagon and push. 1t
must push for greater productivity
or, at the very least, an honest
days work for a fair days wage.
It's real fight is to hold its hard
won gains. The steadily increaS.
ing number of workers votes for
mo union reflects fear that leaders
are imperiling jobs
No One Would Benefit.
Business declines and lowered
production activity have been at
tributed to consumer resistance. 1t
has been asserted that price adjust
ments would overcome such resist
ance and stimulate buying. Sight
should not be lost Of the fact that,
if prices descend to Distress selling
levels, nobody will be the bene-
flciary.
Consumer psychology can negate
all that government, manufacturing,
distribution and labor can do to
preserve prosperity and make jobs
secure. If confidence is lacking, if
consumers retrench en- masse, an
irretrievable situation will ensue,
and it will be a. situation from
which neither government, manu-
featuring, distribution, labor nor the
Individual can be immunized.

Vegetable Prices Rise
Here as Storms Cut
Produce Shipments

Retail food dealers here today
listed slight increases in a few
vegetable prices because of recently
decreased shipments from storm
areas in the South and Midwest.
Meat prices, however, were from
2 to cents lower than last week
on many grades of steak, chuck
roast, ground beef and ham.
The vegetable price increases in
Washington markets were only a
cent or two pound or bunch in
most cases and were confined prin-
cipally to cabbage and beets,
dealers said.
Grapefruit and oranges from Flor
ida remained practically unchanged
In price.
Dairy products have held steady
during the last week, with butter
continuing to sell from 10 to 73 cents
a pound for 90 and 90 score.
Texas Shipments Cut.
The Nationwide food price situa-
ton reflected the flash freeze that
hit the Texas produce belt. The
normal shipment of about l20 car
loads OF mixed vegetables from that
State fell of to IS last Monday and
has been light since then, the Associ-
ated Press reported.
This has caused shortages that
contributed to price increases of as
much as IS per cent for spinach,
beets. parsley and cabbage in many
cities. Washington dealers, how
ever, said the effect has not been
felt to any considerable extent here
and may not be unless shortages
grow more acute
The only major changes noted by
retail food stores here today were
in meats One large chain organi-
zation was selling some grades of
steak at 50 cents a pound as COM
pared with IS cents a week ago.
1t quoted ground beef at Al cents
a drop of cents a pound, and
chuck roast at 43 cents, a decrease
of 2 cents.
Further Decline Seen.
Two other chain stores quoted
smoked hams at SO cents,4 cents
lower than last week.
| A further decline in the whole
sale food index was reported today
by Dun g. Bradstreet. The index
declined to $3.50 this week, a new
low since the end of OPA price
control in October, 1916, the COM
pany stated.
This was a decline of S per cent
from the previous week, 176 per
cent under year ago, and 201 low
er than the all-time high of last
July l3. The index represents the
total wholesale cost of a pound OF
each Of 81 foods in general use
Flour, lard, butter, cocoa and
peas advanced in wholesale price
while wheat, corn, rye, oats, barley,
beef, hams, sugar, milk, beans,
raisins. steers and lamb declined
in price. Analysts said these in
creases or declines have not yet
been passed on to the consumers.
