(From Consumer Cooperation) The National Survey of Potential Produce Capacity reports that 'the American people in the last five year period have permitted them selves to be deprived of goods and services to the amount of 287 bil lions of 1929 dollars, or an average of 57 billions per year.’ This addi tional amount could have been pro duced ‘if physical factors and know ledge had been the only limitation on production.’ This lack of production, when we had the physical capacity and know ledge to produce 692 billions of wealth rather than 405 billions, or a shortage of 287 billions, was the result of ’uneven distribution of buying power.’ The goods and ser vices listed in our budget could not be consumed unless evervone helped in their consumption. They are not like dollars of which one man can possess a million and another none at all. This consumption of budget- ed goods and services would recuire the cooperation of the entire popu lation.’ We have concentrated ‘purchasing power' in the hands of a few. But 'consuming ability' cannot be con- centrated to the same degree. The few cannot consume the food an goods represented by the purchasing power they receive in the form of money income. This holding of ex cess monetary power to consume by the few is what prevents additional vroduction. Things that are produc ed must be consumed or we pile up what are mis-called surplus. They re not surpluses beyond the needs of the mass of the peonie but be- vond the consuming ability of the few who hold the monetary counters controlling their distribution. The key question is the distrib”- tion of purchasing power to match the distribution of consuming abil- cooperative and ity. Starting shunting the profits back into the hands of the people as a whole, through patronage dividends In stead of concentrating the profits Into the hands of the few thronth stock dividends Is the way to dis tribute purchasing power to match consuming ability." Voluntary cooperation offers us a way out that is in keening with our democratic traditions and institu tions. Farmers of America have grasped the meaning of cooperation and are organizing rapidly. They are buy ing cooperatively their farm and home supplies of all kinds. Farmers have also organized to market prac- tically all kinds of food products they raise: but they must turn these products into the hands of private processor-distrihntors who take toll from farm producers In lower prices and from city consumera in higher prices. City consumers must organize in- to consumer's co-operatives to buy direct from farm co-one and elim- Inate the excessive distributor tolia. —Quality Men's Wear— FLORSHEIM SHOES 718 Main Street Auto Clearing House Auto Parts Glass Replaced "We Keep Upkeep Down” 626 Cottonwood St. - Phone 38 BEST SERVICE AND BODY DEPT.
