WAGE INCREASE TO EOOM TRADE
By SOLOMON LEVITAN, Wi«on«in Stale T'eawrer.
There is enough money in this country for all of us. Raise wages,
stimulate trade and bring about general prosperity. This country will
then pull itself out of the tailspin into which it started just before the
recent stock market crash.
There is the possibility of serious economic depression unless business
executives get together to remedy conditions. Perhaps the American pub
lie can stand another price increase. Perhaps it can stand even a second
one. But can it stand a third and have wages remain at their present
level ?
There is an economic line you may call the sustenance line of the
American public. When prices are increased so they are above this sus
tenance line those responsible must expect a demand from the people that
conditions be remedied. The American people do not submit in silence to
that sort of dominance to which people in some other countries bow:
they are independent, freethinking people, given to expressing their sense
of justice.
The main thing necessary to avoid unrest is to have the three factors
play together—the producer, the laborer and the consumer. The pro
ducer should have a reasonable profit, the laborer must receive more than
a mere living wage, and the consumer should get full value for his dollar.
