He will pay every cent he thinks it is worth to him. Ultimately he will be willing to pay more, if he finds out the item is worth more than he first thought. On the other hand he will kick at a price and refuse to pay it as soon as he finds out any item is worth less to him than the money he paid for it. These statements are so plain and simple that any schoolboy is able to understand them. You would hardly think anybody could get these facts mixed-up, but they are often used wrongly. Under them is hid the 1946 labor-management problem which is the most serious and the most dangerous one that has ever confronted this nation. What lies behind all the headlines telling about strikes? Can't Get Together In extreme brevity, union labor ers are asking their employers for more pay?more wages than the employers (for some reason) are willing to lay out. Why not pay working men whatever they ask? All trades, especially farmers, want laborers to draw high wages be cause that's the key to good times. Farmers, whose fields feed the work ers, have good markets and pros perity when labor prospers. The answer is not hard: The workers' wages, just like the own ers' profits come out of what John Q. Public will pay for what he wants. If the price is too steep for John, then there's no sale and no profits and presently no wages. If the price Is within reasonable range of John's pocketbook, ha buys. That makes profits and wages ? better jobs and more of them, and pros perity. High Wages Popular There it auch a thing a* oppres sion; I have seen it in China. There <? such a thing as exploitation of labor?ignorant labor. But it's fool hardy to mistreat workers in a modem American factory. If an employer should try holding wages down to fatten his own bank ac count, his customers would ail favor higher pay for his workers because (in such a case) it could be done without boosting prices. In most cases, when wages ad vance prices have to advance to cover the expense. There is no other way to raise wages except by boosting prices unless the prices al ready in force are fictitious and unfair, which competition seldom permits. Customers object to wage increases only when they call for price increases to cover them. Even then, Mr. Public is not always right. Who Caa Say When? Many a wage lncreaae is appro ~ * priats and economically sound even when prices *??? to be raised im mediately to cover them. Boosting prices to pay better wages is good business, up to a point. But what pointT Up to the point that John Q. Public gets slow about buying. So long as volume can stay large, the price is sound. When volume drops off and prices have to be boosted to pay for the blunder, that's unsound. There are experts in every busi ness who can estimate with remark able accuracy how many of this or-that will tell for some stipulated price. They know long before the drat one is made. This year, when steady jobs at good pay are so vital to everybody, prices should be sal in advance to get volume sales. Labor, at well as industry, should be interested in the right prices. Time Flies Busy In the United States todaj are two ways ot thinking?the high brows call them "opposing con cepts " Orators In both camps sounc a lot alike until they get right dowr to brass tacks, completely aftij from abstract generalities. Botl schools, if you listen with only hal an ear to their vocal members, seen to favor advancement of the reci and better living conditions. Most of the people in America art not on either aide; not yet. The; haven't given the issues enougi thought That's the WttT with th< American people, they keep out a all the arguments they can. The] are busy with their own affairs and if you interrupt them, you mus state your business in a few words Unfortunately it is not possible t< state these two creeds briefly six clearly. Serious Problem It would not be necessary for I person of average sbllity to go t< college and study a year in order t< leam the difference. The problem li dot that complicated. On the othei hand, I can't cover the case in om ' newspaper column or in a letter ol two or three pages. It's not that: simple. Everybody owes it a little serious thought, however, before it is too late. . Nothing was ever more serious to the people of this continent, their children and their grandchildren, than this dispute between "Individ ualism" and "Collectivism." Those are the names that best describe them. The former may call them selves Democrats or Republicans or . Conservatives. The latter may be Nazis, Communists, Fascist or Cen tral Planners. Htrt. they are revo lutionists. Vital Decisions Although I imagine somebody is going to call me an alarmist, I'm duty bound as a loyal citizen to say: The American people will know all about this sooner or later. If they give the matter some thought and act quickly, they still may take their choice. Otherwise they will get Collectivism like it came to the unhappy peoples of other lands who are now starving by the hundreds every day. Here is a fair question: How can anybody identify destructive, alien, revolutionist movements at sight? They wear respectable names, shout for praiseworthy aims and have pa triotic slogans. How can we pick them out? The best answer I have ever heard came from J. P. Seiber ling in an address he delivered in Dallas, Texas, a few months ago. He says observe how they appeal I to you! catering to wnatr When ? philosophy appeals to hu man weaknesses it is plainly ear marked aa destructive. Central Planning, (or example, charms no body but people who believe in super-men and recognize themselves aa weaklings. The offeT of freedom from fear is a vulgar appeal to cowardice. Freedom from want (silly as it is) was never more than a bait to catch lazy people. Collec tivism offers these, which mean mediocrity for everybody. Individualism offers opportunity, a challenge; no soft stuff like secur ity. Its rewards are for the ener getic, not the lazy. Individualism offers personal liberty and individ ual freedom?freedom in expression, (raadom in business and freedom in worship. These appeal to man's noble traits. Individualism offers these, with the highest standards of living for everybody the world has yet known. Wheat Germ Wheat germ stands foremost among a number of plant proteins recency tested as possible sources quality pro'.t'iii Tor low-cost diet*, both at home and abroad. Corn term, though ranking below wheat germ, was better than the peanut or aoybean Hours depart ment at agriculture scientists had studied previously. However, the quality at the protein in both cereal products proved inferior to that in egg or in milk when fed at a 15 per cent or high protein level In a diet adequate with respect to all other nutrients. Though the potential annual production of wheat germ might be 150 million pounds and of dry corn germ 600 million pounds, present production is far below such levels and most of the supply is now used for animal feed. If mar keted in a form suitable for human consumption, these cereal-grain germs could become a source of high-quality food protein at relative ly low cost. Work Shoes High heels are about as appropri ate tor wear in a factory, store, gar den or while doing house work as would a man's tuxedo or cutaway be for similar occupations. Flats are best for work; are kindest to backs and dispositions. Faces ac quire wrinkles; - foreheads are marred by frowns and ankles tend | to enlarge when shoes are worn that are uncomfortable from too high heels. Bodies are thrown out of line and very poor posture may result. There is nothing attractive or even fashionable about stooped, rounded shoulders. Cause Headaches Many persons believe that head aches arising from visual shortcom ings are caused usually by serious errors in refraction, but actually the minor and often neglected defect are the cause of headaches. When errors are slight the human mech anism whips up nervous energy in . an attempt to overcome such short- ' comings. This disturbs the nervous balance of the body. But when the I [ eyes have high refractive errors, the body often accepts the low standard of vision instead of trying to over come the condition. " | Candle-Light Beauty As every woman knows, under the dim light of candles even a heavy coating of make-up appears soft ened and subdued to the eyes of friends. But in the bright light of electric lamps excessive use of | make-up is readily apparent. Some | street lights contain ultra-violet 1 rays which change the color of | make-up pigments, causing a heav I ily made up lady to take on a sal low complexion.' A woman "living 1b ? town with such tricky street lights should watch her make-up. Enamelware Standard If you're buying porcelain anim elware, there's something to keep in mind. The Enameled Utensils Manufacturers council and the Na tional Bureau of Standards have set up a commercial standard provid ing for labels that will tell whether the vessel has a multi-coat finish or a single-coat finish and whether the utensil conforms to the commercial standards of its type. Enamelware is made by fusing enamel on a steel or iron base. In the multi-coat fin ish, one or more coats of white enamel are applied over a first dark coat. The single-coat is a speckled finish. In enamelware, it's the surface that counts. Look for a surface that's completely smooth. Air bubbles or an exposed base are signs of poor manufacture. And since the enamel is essentially glass, tiny chips might break off into the food while it's cuoking if there are weak places on the surface.
