WASHINGTON, P) - Tn e Army said today it got offers of only 100000 pounds of beef in response to it's request for bids on 13,OOO,OO0 pounds.
 Only two of PIP packers sol icited for bids made offers. This seemed to make certain that the Army would turn to overseas mar ketS.
 The Army announced Wednes- day that if domestic packers failed to supply the needed amount it would request authority from Army Secretary Pace to buy over seas.
 The packers have given govern ment price controls and short age of high quality beef as req sons for refusing to submit bids.

LETTERS TO The EDITOR

under the conditions of sma1l-s scale in
dustry where competition, supply and
demand, rather easily regulated pro-
| duction and prices. Fifty years ago
| it was called the competitive system
but the proponents now do not care
to call attention to that term. With
the advent of modern technology,
which has made necessary large scale
industrial enterprises, it has made
monopoliStic practices the rule.
The resulting high prices made pos
sible by monopoly makes it impossible
for us to buy back all the products of
industry. The result is large SURPRISES
and widespread unemployment.
Recently a Massachusetts, Institute
of Technology professor has stated that
within the next five years so much au-
tomato machinery is going to be put
into use that millions more will be un-
employed. And he added 1.-The Ameri-
can people must not be so afraid of
socialism. The only solution thus far
found is to convert our production to
the manufacture of arms and ammuni-
ton and finally to destroy it in war
Every sign of peace causes the stock
market to break. A real peace con-
ference would create a panic.
The recent Senate investigating COM
mittee revealed that graft and demo-
goguery in our political life, and the
gambling ana crime IN our American
cities are the fruits of our economic
system, based on greed and selfish
ness, where it is every man for him
self and the devil take the hindmost."
In an economy where everybody is so
busy with his own affairs chasing the
dollar, it rather naturally produces an
apathy and Indifference of our citi-
zens. The contemporary picture of
our America shows rather clearly that
we need cooperation instead of
strife.

Why Many Intelligent P eople
Oppose Capitalism
BY JOHN McGUFFEY, Roman


Recently the editor of the local pap
er in his editorial column wrote: "Ev-
cry so often we get to wondering how
in the world an intelligent person can
add up all the facts, and then oppose
the capitalistic economic system"
1 would like to suggest to that edi-
tor that If he has sufficient curiosity
that he read the pamphlet why So
cialism" by Prof. Albert Einstein and
if he wants to pursue the inquiry still
further to read the book 1.-The Truth
About Socialism, by Leo Huberman, a
former professor at Columbia Univer-
sity. He will then understand better
why lot of intelligent people have
lost faith in our capitalist system
1t is rather easy to see that one of
the main reasons for the economic
well-being of us in America is the
fact that we have just capitalized on
the natural resources of a new contin-
ent.
Some forty years ago, I heard Frank
j. Haney of San Francisco say that
the Usage Indians were the richest
people in the world. They drew down
$4,000 per year for every man, woman
and child before they did a tap of
work. This had been accomplished
because coal and oil had been discov-
cred on their reservation lands, and
as they were wards of our Uncle Sam,
this wealth had been held for them
and the royalties which were paid for
this coal and oil belonged to the In
dams. Haney went on to say that
little while ago, we the American peo-
pie, were much richer than the Usage
Indians; that all the natural resources
of this country, the minerals, the oil,
the timber and the potential water
power of our streams, all belonged to
us, the citizens of the United States,
but our government had allowed priv
ate companies to preempt the most of
this wealth, and that now we, the peo-
pie, had to pay exorbitant prices to OBJ
tain the use of these things.
The capitalist economic system is a
has been, an outworn institution of |
the past. 1t worked reasonably well |

Technocracy Discussion
Arouses Another Reader
By HAL briggs. Butte

I get a lot of valuable information
out of the Voice, and sometimes some
amusement. OF late, letters advocating
TechnOcracy have been mildly enter
tanning.
This group appeared to rise and
flourish in limited sense during the
depression of the thirties. In Seattle
where 1 was at that time, they were
quite in evidence for a rather brief
period, then seemed to all but vanish.
have been told by a rather good auth
GRITTY recently that in intervening years
the organization has been headed by
Howard Scott, who set up a virtual
dictatorship over it-so much so that
a serious split has been created. [ am
not surprised at this development, as
can readily understand that the idea
of a personal dictatorship or an indi-
vidual racket would be close to the
thinking of person like Scott, whose
arrogantly stupid rantings l once list
ened to.
The Technocratic group in the thir-
ties, 1 think, was predominantly led by
professional people stymied by the de-
preston, or by small business people
similarly stymied, or lower middle class

social science. has long been doomed
to extinction by the age of mass pro-
duction and the concurrent growth of
monopoly. Caught between the power
full, owning or capitalist class on the
one hand and the rising pro1etariat or
working class on the other, the middle
class is a disappearing class. Because
of smattering of formal education,
members of this class tend to be con-
temptuous of trade unioniStS; although
have known many highly developed
workers in trade unions who have per-
haps forgotten more about economics

nocratic leadership ever knew. These
middle class people fear the owning
class while at the same time they are
envious of that class. In short, confus-
ed by the march of events, without I'M
them, they spawn such
fantasies as "Technocracy, Inc"
But although the manifest confusion
of this group provides some amuse-
ment to informed progressives, there
are a few ideas expressed in their lit |

has indicated some of these ideas
which to him seemed unpleasantly rem
iniscent of Hitlerism. There are 9TH
ers: for instance, the peculiarly Amer
lean character of the group as stressed
in their literature. This literature
states, in almost so many words, that
absolutely no European or other for
eign idea is going to faint the simon
pure philosophy of Technocracy. This
is precisely the uper-nationalism of
the Nazis, and, of course, uper-idiocy,
as we'll. Foreign ideas derived from
France, recall, were of considerable
benefit to our own American revolu-
ton. And an Engishman named Tom
