Reuther and other union nego-

porters of the settlement.

Reuther declared:
"Chrysler Corp. has sunk to a low
never before attained in the auto
industry"
There was not even surface
show of amity, such as usually
attends the end of negotiations.
Asked to pose for pictures with
Chrysler negotiators. the union men
voted to refuse.
The l4-week strike was a peace

of Management and the Labol
unions, to study this problem as i
affects each individual industry
Certainly, Americans need protec-
ton when the State Department
is off on an international binge.
The same writer says:
=" We here in the United
States have no conception of the
vide wage differences paid tc
workers in foreign countries. The
countries affecting our industry
most are the United Kingdom, with
whom public opinion is certainly
favorable, Belgium, of mixed feel
ings. Japan, now a practical ware
of the United States, and the
group of countries controlled both
economically and politically by the
u. S. s. R. In every instance, the
wage levels of those countries are
drastically below what has become
known as the American standard
of living :"
The greatest danger is that we
shall all discover too late that our
industries have been ruined by un-
fair competition; that our WorKers
are living on relief because they
could not compete with slave labor.
Then we shall all have to be taxed
heavily to solve the problem.
The other day a woolens man
came to see me about this prob
lem. Wool has, to a large extent
to be imported. So the American
Manufacturer and worker are squee-
zed two ways First, by govern
mental price-fixing aimed to make
America pay heavily in dollars
for whatever raw materials it i'm
ports; and then by sending into
this country competing finisheo
goods at a price cheaper than the
American manufacturer can charge
because of his labor and tax costs.
1t is a squeeze play that can
only produce wholesale bankrupt
cies and eventually lower wage
scale in this country. Wages can
be lowered in two ways: l. Inc
wage is actually cut; 2. The value
of the dollar is reduced. Either
way. it means bringing down the
standard of living of the American
people.
There is still time to fight this,
but it can only be done by joint
Management-Labo action with
wide public support.

KILLING AMERICAN INDUSTRY
GEORGE E. SOKOLSKY

I hold in my hand some linen
napkins On yellow paper label
so made that it can readily be
removed from the napkin, appears
small, badly printed lettering, the
words Soviet Union" The words,
under our laws, should be Made
in the Soviet Union"
These napkins were picked up in
chain store in Miami, Florida.
They can be purchased anywhere
in the United States They sell
at 3 for slo0 Identical napkins
made in the United States sell at
s100 or SIPS apiece.
The Soviet napkins are made by
slave labor. The Russian Govern
ment can dump them into this
country at any price. Our labor
cannot compete with slave labor
If Americans buy this Russian
made goods, they are putting Am
erican workers out of work and
closing down American factories
The best way is not to buy any
" thing made in Soviet Russia or ir
any of its satellites. The retailer
jobher or wholesaler who sells goods
made outside the United States
which is not properly labeled
breaks the law. He should be re-
ported to your Chamber of Com
merce and to the labor union OF
the particular industry. Also
write to me-
In the case of these napkins
they were labeled and therefore ]
am not citing the name of the
seller. However, if you do not buy
this stuff, he will not offer it.
The 1913 revision of the tariff
has hit American manufacturers OF
linen goods hard Producers of
flax towels, tablecloths, napkins
and such products are worried alb
out the conference that is to be
held at Torquay, England, begin
ming September g. They fear that
they will be put out of business.
They fear that the New Gener-
osity' will be used to close down
American factories just to show
how good-natured and self sacri-
ficing we can be. A linen manu-
facturer writes me about the Tor
quay conference:
Under the Tariff Act of
1890, any lowered tariffs that these
sterling negitiators work out to
favor certain Good Neighbor coun-
tries will give the same rate to
that group of countries that is
giving our particular industry one
of its biggest fights for existence,
namely the Union of Soviet Socialist
Republics and its satellites, Czech
osloyakia, Poland and now China
This is something that needs i'm
mediate attention. May l recon-
mend that each American industry
organize a Management-Lab COM
mittee, representing the best minds
