WAGE Initiation

Do higner wages increase
buying power? In Mr.. Ar
thur Kale's letter, he thinks
they do? The question is. how
ever. whose buying power?
OF course. higher wages in
crease the buying power of
the group receiving them. But
who actually pays the higher
wages? The employer has no
magic wand to create the
money to pay the higher
wages. The higher wages can
come from only one source
the buying public. The pub
lie pays the higher prices
necessary to pay the higher
wages. The higher price the
public must pay is equivalent
to a wage cut for those not
receiving the higher wages.
This puts a burden upon the
entire public. including the
Government.
Would Mr.. Kales advocate
that all workers land that
includes everybody who
works for q living) should re-
ceive similar higher wages
simultaneously That would
only be fair, else there would
be unjust discrimination.
What Is fair for one group is
fair for all workers. What
would be the result Of such
simultaneous and equitable
increase In wages3 All en-
ployers would necessarily
simultaneously increase the
price Of their goods or serv-
ices to pay for the wage In
crease. The RESULT Every
body would be In the same
relative position as before he
received the wage increase.
In other words. the wage in
fiation would result In price
imitation. Nobody would be
better or.
However. there are many
to whom imitation would be
rank injustice. They are the
ones who own bonds Of what
ever source. whether Govern
ment. State. municipal or
corporation. II would include
also those who had cash In
the bank. who held insurance
Of all kinds. pension funds,
and everybody on o fixed
income. They would be
robbed Of part of their in
come, or part Of the money
they had invested, Imitation
Is q robber Of the thrifty.
Can any honest person still
be in favor Of wage increases
without corresponding In

to the degree that her Com

traHy. We realize that the
Russian people. by and large,
are by now committed to the
Communistic state with a
fair degree Of satisfaction.
and even Of pride Of past

5. That we separate our
attitudes toward communism
from our attitudes toward
the Russian people. Against
communism we may very
rightly continue to endeavor
to bulwark the world. But we

than military solutions TO
world problems.
! am not prepared TO state
what our new international
attitudes should be. But
whatever they are. they must
come face TO face with real
ity. TO q degree which has not
prevailed in the past few
years. We need q national
leadership capable Of ruth
less discrimination. Before
action always must com e
thought; and before synthe-
sis, analysis.
So let us-as American
people upon whose intelli-
gence and prowess the worlds
welfare so much depends
consecrate a portion Of each
day throughout the new
year TO the habit Of inter-
national thought. This is a
technique new to us. But IL
Is a technique which we must
develop. as q necessity for

honour Me l will honour, and
they that despise Me shall be
lightly esteemed"
i Samuel 2:30
The almighty God Who is
gracious and merciful deserves
and expects the highest esteem,
respect, or reverence from man.
We must all confess that even
at our best we are unworthy and
vile. The living God alone is holy
and righteous.
Our text is taken from a por-
ton of the Scriptures which tells
of those who were responsible
for the spiritual ministry to the
people. They had many privi-
leges, but they abused those
privileges. They used their office
for selfish ends-greed and un-
holy lust. Instead of leading the
people into closer fellowship
with God and to a higher spiri-
tual plane, they caused the
people to trangress. They made
light of that which was holy
and dear to the heart of God.
Therefore God judged them, and
He stated the settled and stand
ing rule which is for all to heed
and which are the words of our
text.
This rule is not concerned with
a mans social or academic stand
ing-from it we observe that
God can exalt the meanest
(ordinary, or even inferior), and
put contempt upon the greatest.
In the New Testament Games
4:6) we read that "God resisteth
the proud, but giveth grace unto
the humble" While in verse 10
of the same chapter we are told
to humble yourselves in the
sight of the Lord, and He shall
lift you up" Peter was led to
write the same truth in these
word s.. Humble yourselves
therefore under the mighty hand
of God, that He may exalt you
in due time" q Peter 5:6).
So we see that when one is
willing to highly esteem or
reverence God, he will be hon
ored himself. Our one aim should
be that with our words and in
our acts we will endeavour to
please God by doing His will as
revealed in the Scriptures and
to lift Him up before men.
The profane and ungodly (if
one has no time for God nor
any desire to do His will, he is
ungodly) can here see that as
they despise God in their
thoughts, words and acts that
they will be lightly esteemed by
God. They will bring dishonor
or disgrace upon themselves.
