The average Montana indus
try worker, who may some
times wonder just how import
ant he is, can get some idea
of his worth from the fact that
it takes about $4,000 in tools
and equipment to put him on
the payroll at the present
standard of living.
And if he wants to know how
valuable he is in comparison
with other workers in the
world, he might ponder on the
fact that in industrialized ma
lions of Europe only about $4,-
900 is invested in tools to help
a man do his jb. In Asia the
amunt drops to less than ST.
The Hardin tribune-herald. [volume] (Hardin, Mont.) 1925-1973, 1952-11-20
$4,000 in Tools and Equipment Required
For Each Industrial Worker in Montana

!, 500 per factory worker.
These significant figures were
released by the Northwest Re
search Council of the National
Association of Manufacturers,
which states:
I'm Montana, the average
work time required to produce
$40 in real income is 8 hours
per man, as compared with 10
hours in industrial Europe and
81 hours in Asian factories,
where socialism regiments
most workers."
The NAM pointed out that
figures for the Northwest states
are comparable with those
throughout the country, al
though some varianceS is found
in Eastern and Southern cities
OF greater size.
in some specific examples,
the comparison of relative
standards of living is even
more marked. For example, the
National Association of Home
Builders reports that in the
United States the average work
er puts in $500 hours of labor
to earn enough to buy a $4,000
home; in SocialiStic England,
$4,000 man hours; in France,
10000 hours, and in Russia, if
home ownership were even pos
Sible, 10000 work hours would
be required. /, 8
Herein lies the true story of
Americas high standard of
living - and not in her ma
tural resources, which are in
many instances poorer than
those of backward nations liv-
ing on our loans. AS America
used her industrial freedom to
raise the average tool-equip-
ment from $500 per man in
1850 to about $12,O 600 now, pro-
duction has scared from IL bill
lion dollars Of value to 221 bill
lions, although the number. Of
w million to 81 million.
1.-THE greatest significance of
ALL" said the NAM in analyz-
ing the figures, sis that two
factors are absolutely essential
to the efficiency of an indus
trial society, and 1t is disclosed
how forces are threatening
these in Montana.
zone is freedom, without
which there is a fast wither-
ing of incentive, initiative, pro-
ductive research and risking of
capital.
1.-The other is education,
without which there could new
er be a large and effectively
trained population skilled In
the use of such equipment and
tools. 4
I'm a very real sense, this
state may find its stake in
these good things under a
deadly and immediate danger,
since its 1884, 000, 900 share of
the national debt and its $685.
695,200 share Of the 1858 bud
get are threatening the individ-
uaPS power to plan his own
life. With nearly % per cent of
the average Montana bread
winners income already taken
by direct and concealed federal
taxes, land the 1853 budget
will raise this to nearly 80 per
cent? how much is left to plan
his own life and to accumulate
savings for investment, home,
bank account or a start in bus
mess? a.
with upwards of rs per cent
of the locally raised revenue
being grabbed by the mush-
rooming@ federal government,
less and less is left for such
essential local services as edu-
cation.
"Just as the danger presses
upon the individual and home
community, SO it is with them
that efforts must be made to
bring government back home
if freedom is to survive" the
report added.
