ECONOMIC HIGHLIGHTS Happenings That Affect the Dinner Pails, Dividend Checks and Tax Bills of Every Individual. Na tional and International Problems Inseparable from Local Welfare In the past. labor troubles have usually consisted of disagreements bet ween employers and unions- In the future, some of our bitterest la bor troubles may be the fruits of a rema: kable phenomenon—disagree ments between different k nds of unions- Signs of this have already appear same inauswj. »i*ay ne that such aa amendment is necessary to the very life of A. F. of L.—in an in-' dustry, craft workers, who are us-: ually highly skilled men, are in the minority, and can be easily outvot ed. The company union, Business Week says, is definitely on the wane, may entirely disappear be fore lontf. Workers just don’t like it. Recent test came in the Packard motor company election, held by the Labor Relations Board, when workers had their choice between a ' company union and a CIO union. 1 CIO came out on top, by a four to ; one majority. So the inter-union warfare will involve only the two major groups , —CIO and A. F. of L. Both are! girding for the fray, both realize | that they are in for real action. THE ZEBULON RECORD. ZEBULON, NORTH CAROLINA, FRIDAY MAY THE TWENTY-FIRST, 1937. Loth have been raising money nowadays unions are big bu.-iness and require tremendous war chests. Both are conduct ng most inten sive membership drives in years- What influence a labor ‘civil j war" will have on labor’s demands i on manage ment remains to be seen. Under any circumstance, the feel-, .ng is grow ng that legislation im posig resposnibilities on unions as well as corporatons, must be pass ed. At best, the Secretaryship of the Treasury is a hard job. Under pres ent conditions, say observers, t is . a major headache to its occupant— Mr. Morgenthau. j The failure of Fedeial revenue to measure up to predictions makes it 'ssential for the Treasury to issue more bonds at the end of this fiscal year. It is up to Mr. Morgenthau to assay the market, get the money at as low an .nterest rate as possible. This takes plenty of figuring, in the light of the substantial drops j in government bond values occur ring early this year—drops that have been but slightly recovered. No authority thinks the decl ne was due to doubt of Government's cre dit. It was due, instead, to more private financing, offering higher interest rates than government bonds, to profit taking for the ra s ing of money with which to pay in come taxes, and highly important, to the Federal Reserve Board's or der to its members to increase their deposit reseves, \vh ch necessitated leavy liquidating of governments. Treasury long-term issues have een paying around 2 1-2 per cent, n par value. New bonds will have * pay about 3 per cent, which cans that carrying charges will «t the government millions more in formerly. easant Hill News iis has gotten to be a busy see since the rain last week.
