SLIGH The rigid clinging to obsolete viewpoints and the igno rance of today's economic realities disclosed at the White House Conference on National Economic Issues last week by many of the top labor and business leaders of this nation are frightening to any informed observer of the world in which the United States exists It was the same old stuff er wages, businessmen calling for bigger profits, public representatives calling for lower prices and scarcely any one digging beneath the superficialities and down to the basic solutions to the problems of accelerating production, increasing employment and tackling fierce world competition which our country now faces. At one point during the session, George Meany, presi dent of the AFL-CIO, arose and angrily shouted at Charles Sligh, Jr., executive vice president of the National Assn. of Manufacturers, "I am all for the profits you need if you can make the jobs. I challenge the NAM to tell us how much profits they need and how it is going to be translated into jobs, not how it is going to be translated into fatter salaries for some executives . . ." To this blockbuster, Sligh's weak answer was, "We'll give you a detailed . plan how job opportunities can be created," and he added that the consumer, of all people, should be the judge of how high business profits should be. This it just a sample of how it was at this conference of 2S0 of America's key labor, management and public figures. When the current railroad dispute came up during a session of labor-management disagreements, the chair man reported the group's only "helpful" recommendation was to "play it by ear." When the question of the administrations guideposts for wage-price increases came up chairman reported many in what the guideposts are. (The should not exceed the overall meaning in industry's efficiency, per year, and prices should be geared to productivity, 3 per cent a year.) At a time when the U.S. must work out ways to speed up its growth and compete more successfully in the world's markets, the performance at this conference was dis couraging indeed. Meany's Sligh's answer wasn't one. (1) The U.S. economy of the 1960s is far different and is up against far different challenges than the U.S. economy of the 1950s and 1940s. We are no longer the supreme pro ducer of the globe, with the world's only truly sound cur rency, great gold reserves, enormous financial know-how. Rather, today, largely because of unparalleled generosity with our money and knowledge, Europe's nations also have rebuilt themselves into powerful producers, with increasingly strong currencies, gold reserves, financial know-how. They have many plants which are more modern than ours. They are growing at a pace which is exhilarating to watch. They are unifying, competing both with each other and with us, challenging us on every front. (2) This means we are into a competive situation which is entirely new to this generation. We're trading with equals and. while we're still ahead in the trade race S20 billion' of exports a year versus SI 5 billion of imports we're losing our edge in more and more lines. (3) One way to make jobs is to increase our sales of , goods at home and abroad, of course. One way to achieve this is to modernize our plants so we can turn out improved goods at lower unit costs. One way to modernize our plants is to permit industry the profits and give it Uie tax incen tives to invest in the plants. The profits arcn t big enough and the tax incentives aren't impelling enough as of now to spur businessmen into the modernization-expansion pro grams which are e-ssential to our prosperity. That's the an swer. Mr.' Meany and Mr0Sligh. o What the U S. doesn't nc today is tired talk a ut wage hikes and old cliches about profits. What we need is a sense of the economic realities and a detcrminat' to cooperate on the programs which will set us strongly and solidly on the long road up. Or, as President Kennedy said in opening the conference, what we need "are very sophisticaled judg ment," untarnishfd by the labels "Republican or Demo- cratic, liberal, conservative out' of this pajley.
