PAGE s :x THURSDAY, AUGUST 29, 1940. THE HERMISTON HERALD. HERMISTON. OREGON EVER STRIVING There are four avenues of endeavor through which mankind is striving toward the ideal of Free Society. They are religion, edu cation, politics and economics. The greatest advance toward this goal must be toward brother hood in religion, freedom in education, democracy in government and cooperation in economics. These paths are parallel like a great four lane highway. They are interdependent and an advance toward either one improves the general statis of the race. The cooperative movement has to do more with economics, and proposes to apply the principles of freedom and equality to our eco nomic relations. In its attempt to achieve this it would substitute for the now generally accepted principle of production for profit, the principle of production for us*. It recognizes the consumer as the primary factor in economics. The consumer being the cause of production, the reason for production, the creator of production, should reap the benefits of produ3tion. Production should be for the purpose of filling man’s need to consume. This is in direct contrast to the Capitalistic idea which considers the consumer exists to be exploited, where money, the tool of man, becomes king, and profit the only motive of business. Good authority claims that approximately 50 per cent of the cost which the consumer pays for goods today goes to pay interest on debts. Thus the consumer is only getting half of what he pays for.
