Retailers Condemn Wusteful Government

large retail association, which represents 1900
chants in this country and Canada has appointed commit
tee to oppose waste and extravaganza in government and to
arouse all retailers to the advantages of the Hoover Com
missions report reorganization of certain government
agencies"
The resolution went on to say, with probable de
cline in Federal revenues, the terrific waste and extravag
of government for serious alarm Therefore,
call upon all members of our trade to insist upon policy
of rigid economy in government"
Retailers know that the kind of waste which character
izes government activity would be fatal it allowed to
exist in their business Competition getting tougher
Instead of shortages have surpuses in lines So
the retailer practice strict economy he is to supply
goods at acceptable price maintain his standards of SER
vice at high level and so hold his trade.
1t is often argued that government cannot be operated
a business basis That Just doesn't hold water There is
for having half dozen costly agencies when
would suffice to do given job There is for the
of the Federal payroll And there is for the
incredible amount of duplication of effort that is found
throughout government in all its branches.
Every reailer-and every other businessman we'll
should take part in the fight for efficient economical gov
ernment Only public pressure bring it about No bur
will economze unless he is forced to. Billions of
money be sayedf demand it Only by cut
ting down inflated government free nation

The Stencil Of Politics

Since we can remember, it has been popular to point
the finger of at anybody who did, does now or

But what have all of US been saying? Have we been

Political Vaccinations certainly not above reproach
Political ocehoders engaged in such Vaccinations, have
done nothing to better the situation.
So voters stay home election day to the polls
knowing only few of the candidates the issues Those
who do vote much too busy to bother with finding out
for themselves just who qualified When to issues
they defend their lack Of knowledge and interest by claim
ing that everything is too involved.
And the final upsho of the whole deal is that "we are
the stencil Of politics Knowing only too well that voters get
just exactly what they deserve hide shame behind
the fact that nobody knows how voted thereby enabling
us to criticize the choice that ourselves made.
If you think these words little far fetched just get
last years ballot and try to duplicate your vote. If you
remember the candidates for whom you voted (Which
doubt you'll be amazed at how many of them turned out to
be different from what partisan orator promised
Politics will be scorned, rdcued and revled until the
day that politicians know that they will surely have

SdfetY Progress In Coal Mining

The Bureau of Mines has published exhaustive re-
port mine safety 1t gives the coal industry high praise
for what it calls tremendous progress in reducing accd
entS.
Every major mine accident naturally receives publicity
throughout the country This tends to hide the fact that
the Bureau he truth is that disasters have decreaS
ed rs to 80 per cent in number well in numbers killed
over the last three four decades And less SINH
lar decrease has taken place all other forms of accidents
This achievement the Bureau goes largely the
suit of three things First the industry has spent huge
accident prevention work Second realizes that safety
is necessary to efficient production and it carries
stant educational campaign among the miners Third the
great strides taken in mechanzng mining operations have
made a significant contribution to safety.
Many criticisms of the coal ndusrys safety record
suit from the fact that every kind of enterprise contains
small percentage of caous operators By the token
there careless miners who refuse to follow fundamental
safety rules and who thus undermine the effort of the mai
ority of miners to eliminate needless risks The big point
that the industry and the as whole are doing
thing possible to make mining safer The great measure
they have far achieved is shown in the statistics

Records And PoY Increases

An American Federationst editorial by William Green
emphasizes the vay important role that company poduc
on and financial records play in negotiating wage IN
creases in this period of change.
The editorial points that is the time for unions
to get away formulas and other gadgets invented by
wartime and other administrators and the socaled rounds
invented by reporters n order to return to our accepted
of contract to compensate workers
for work done in accord with the value of their services as
reflected in the companys production records and income
from sale of products.
Records on production sales and on distribution OF
returns are needed by the bargane the editorial says and
adds
'In this period of readjustment we should move with
caution without weakness to insist adequate compen-
sation for wage In buyers market higher costs
longer be covered by price increases Buyers resist
too high prices and inferior quality and employers in turn
every addition to their costs However, employers can
pay higher wages without increasing their costs because
workers have increased their output per man-hour.
Unions should seek rates of to compensate work
er for output Unions stronger than they were
during the dsnflaon following the First World War and
should be determining factor in aiding the economy TO
new balance without lowering standards of living Employ
should bargain in good faith the basis of facts This
will facilitate the correatve process necessary to equi
brium."
