A Lesson Learned by the Government
Seen in Postal Rote and u. S. Poy Rise

available for the deficit.
This, in ordinary or private
business, would be regarded
as Q substantial advance
toward a profit position.
Now, there's no doubt that
the price for the Govern
ment's handling Of the mail
should go up as costs In
crease. Whether the price in
creases have been eqUlitably
distributed or the costs
properly allocated may well
be debated, but a price in
crease Of some kind Is justi-
fied-and a few weeks ago it
looked like a sitter hike
would be made than has Just
been approved in Congress.
Also, there, no doubt that
many Of the Federal en-
ployes, both in the Post Of
flee Department and else
where, deserve higher wage
rates. They can belong to la
Dor unions and the Govern
ment helps collect the dues
for the unions, but there
can't be any strikes. So Fed
eral employees have to de-
pend on political pressures 70
get an increase In wages
through Congress. The real
question is whether the wage
rise follows any ''guidelines"
and whether productivity"
win be increased.
But, even as the necessity
for the wage-and-price in
creases is emphasized, so also
is it significant that in this
instance the spokesInen for
the Government, including
the President, didn't raise a
fuss over the economic con-
sequences of what they are
doing. Does it mean that
they at last recognize the
validity of economic truth
versus economic theory? For
workers who have no incen-
tive to work hard become
careless and inefficient. Also,
a Government that pays out
more than it takes in loses
the confidence Of the public.
So an increase in the price
of services rendered by the
Government does become es-
sential. Just as in private
business.
Unfortunately, the Gov
ernment isn't consistent in
these matters. It gives away
many things free and per-
forms without charge many
special services for which it

could get paid sums that
would bring in extra reve-
nues to help balance the
budget.
But the most important
aspect Of what the Govern
ment has Just done in rats
ing wages and prices in its
own business Is the certainty
that the impact Of this viii
be felt In private enterprise,
as the public finds itself
compelled to pay increased
prices.
When wage rates In Gov
eminent go up, this has q
relationship to employment
scales in other lines. Also, IL
the costs Of selling by mail
rise. then somehow the in
creased cost has to be added
to the price. A boost of $603
million in mail costs isn't
going TO be paid entirely cut
Of the profits Of private busi-
ness. There are some busi-
nesses, on the other hand,
which, for q variety Of rea-
sons, will not be able to
raise their prices. Some viii
find their expenses increas-
ing and profits squeezed, If
not wiped out altogether.
The s603 million cost item
for mailing may be multiplied
many times throughout the
national economy before it
is absorbed. The net result
may be to help some Of the
larger businesses grow larger
as they take over the GUS
toners of the small busi-
nesses that are forced to the
wall. This is the inexorable
behavior Of the profit-and-
loss system.
The present stagnation In
steel and in other industries
is due to the impairment Of
economic law by Government
Intervention. 1t may be that
the administration at last has
recognized that stability"
has become q synonym for
stagnation, and that price
increases and wage increases
must be allowed to find their
own natural level in q con-
stantly changing economy.
So what seems to be an in
consistency by the admins
tration could turn out to be
a lesson learned from which
business may yet derive some
encouragement. Maybe steel
can raise its prices next year,
after all. when another de-
mand arises for wage in
creases.

The depression broke that

the States cruel economic
problems In the face, instead
Of claiming that If the Demo-
Gratis would only leave Harris

all would be well.

earlier was deemed q shoo-in,

Mr.. Scranton received an

off. It was further FURNISHED
when he quietly forced the
rampant factions Of the party
to unite on his nomination.
Ever since, he has been cam
paigning over the State in the
industrious Kennedy manner.
Generally, he sticks to State
issues, and there are plenty.
In the 1850 reapportion-
ment, Pennsylvania lost three

DAVID LAWRENCE

It may sound like q para
oox to point out a helpful
inconsistency in Government
policy which has just emerg-
ed-but 1t could turn out TO
be q lesson learned.
Just five-and-a-haR
months ago, the President Of
the United States stirred up
a controversy when he de-
nounced steel company ex-
ecutives because they decided
to raise prices so as to off
set wage increases Of the
previous three years. The
American people were told by
Mr.. Kennedy that stability"
was imperative-that the Ma
ton was confronted with
grave crises in Berlin and
Southeast Asia, that reserv-
lists were being asked to leave
their homes, and that union
members were being asked to
hold down their wage re-
quests.
But today the President
and the Congress have
agreed that the Government
must raise both wages and
prices In its own business es-
tablishment.
The international crises
now are even more grave
the Secretary Of Defense
says they are more serious
than at any time since Ko-
rea." But the hard facts of
economic life have been
finally faced by the Govern
ment In its own operations.
The prices of certain postal
services rendered have not
been high enough to cover
costs. So the Government in
its own biggest business oper-
ation-the Post Office De-
partment- has determined
to raise the prices of its serv-
ices so as to get the money
to pay for them. About half
the $603 million In revenues
to be derived from the in
creased prices to be charged
for carrying the different
classes Of mail will be used
to pay wage increases for
postal employees. The other
half goes to help meet the
deficit. II there were no wage
raises, the new revenues
would have covered the en-
tire $3.50 million deficit at
tributed to the cost Of pos
tai service to businesses and
individuals. But, as 1t Is,

tempt to seal the division of
Germany. The Russian die
tator said as much to Hans
Kroll. the retiring West Ger
man ambassador. during his
farewell visit.
Meanwhile, Mr.. Khru-
shchev, after having dropped
his Cuban bomb" expects
the Cuban din in America to
die down. When the Berlin
crisis begins, Castro will play
an important second fiddle.
The main purpose Of the
arrogant warning to Wash
ington on Cuba was TO test
the will of the administra-
ton. Had we reacted with
force-in the form, for in
stance, Of an immediate
blockade of the island-Mr.
Khrushchev would have re-
ferred the whole matter to
the U. N. There, after pro-
longed debate, the incident
would have been swept under
the rug with a condemnation
of the United States by his
puppets and the Afro-Asians.
\ A firm American stand, on
the other hand, would have
served the Soviets as a warn
ing not to goo too far in Ber-
lin. But Mr.. Kennedy's in
sistence that the Soviet mill
tary technicians do not con-
stitute a threat to our secur-
ity is said to have encouraged
Mr.. Khrushchev in his pros
pective gamble.

fore our entry into World
War I that I'VE are too
proud to fight" has been
modified by the Kennedy ad-
ministration to I'VE are too

that there is q continual
force at work In the world,
the Secretary Generals words
were very moving to hear.
Secretary q Thant and his
candid revelations are a
change for the United Ma
tions. Dag Hammarskjold,
whose death in an airplane
crash came a little more than
a year ago, had made a nee
essary contribution in a time
of almost explosive expansion
of the United Nations. The
by-products of the sudden
establishment Of independ-
ent nations, many Of them
quite unready for the diff
culties of Self-rule, but all
determined to have it, were
turbulences which not merely
involved the United Nations,
but placed the two giants in
mp tition. The Soviets
moved in with their demands
for a troika rule of the United
Nations. This would have de-
stroyed it. The neutral ma
tions opposed. 1t is perhaps
well that Hammarskjold was
a coldly reticent man. The
times demanded it.
U Thant is something new
perhaps the man destiny
was selected to direct the
period when the world,
through the mechanism of
the United Nations, win be
able to move toward that
Synthesis in which capitalism
and communism, as shaped
by the economic demands and
the needs of the worlds bill
lions of people, will be able
to co-exist as the once bel
igerent and intolerant re-
ligions have learned to live.
Anyhow. it was q rare and
moving eloquence. And in a
dark and troubled world it

us that. so far. the Russian
buildup in Cuba does not
have an aggressive character.
This brings back to this re-
porter's memory many dis
armament conferences held
at Geneva between the two
world wars. Months were
spent in futile arguments
over what was an aggressive
weapon and what a defensive
weapon. The British, for in
stance. insisted that their
battleships could not be con-
sidered aggressive because
they defended Great Britain.
The French insisted they
were aggressive but subma-
rines were not. The British,
Of course, had the largest
number of battleships and
the French prided themselves
on their submarine strength.
Then there we're interminable
discussions over when is a
soldier not a soldier. The
French, who had a large land
army, insisted that reservists
were not actual soldiers.
Other participants contended
the contrary. And this yack-
ety-yack by able men went
on until the outbreak Of
World War II.
Now President Kennedy
comes up with another shib-.
boleth: When Is an agrees
sion not an aggression? Is
the sending of thousands of
Russian military experts over
thousands Of miles to Cuba
an aggression? Is the arrival
OF thousands Of tons Of mill
tary weapons of every sort
an aggression? To the aver
age mind it certainly is. To
the military mind in Europe
1t is untenable. But it is not
so considered by Washing
ton; aggression starts when
the first missile hits Ameri- ,
can soil. And before that
haupens, we can always ne
gotiate.
