V By-PAUL MALLOW .
A ' HOPEFUL piece of domestic news this
week was 1 the Washington, D. C. story
announcing the preparation ot a "peace charter"
tor labor and management
This is a code of principles
designed to prevent industrial
strife, so widely feared for the
period ahead when the na
tion's economy contracts to
peace-time basis and the war
time mandates for; productive
cooperation have passed: ' . ;";
This charter is ;ifhlficanC
not' merely for what it says,
but because of the men who
announced it. They were AFL
Droeilanr Willinm r.rwn. .CIO
Chairman Philip Murray, and President Eric
Johnston of the United States chamber of
commerce.
The charter supports private- property, free
choice of action and a private ; competitive
system of competitive capitalism- It is double
barreled, as it should be, in behalf of both
labor and management. It recognizes the re
sponsibility and right of management to direct
the operations of a business or industrial enter
prise, and it supports the right of labor to
organize and engage in collective bargaining.
This code represents a step in the direction
wt, must go unless we are to start fighting each
other as soon as we end with fighting our
common axis enemy. We will need a united
nation to meet the problems of peace, as we
have required one to carry on the war success
fully. We need sympathetic understanding of
each other's problems and cooperation in solving-:
them in the best interests of all Americans.
The' code, of course, represents the action
taken by only a few leaders. Its spirit roust
be honest and sincere, and it must be accepted
nationally in that spirit if it is to mean any
thing. The labor and business leaders who
prepared it state they plan to promote its ac
ceptance on that basis.
i '
That Paper Shortage
THAT there is real soap on the newsprint
" -shortage was illustrated to Medio rd people
this' week when the Mail-Tribune of that city
went on a sharply restricted basis. For four
days, the M-T came out in four pages. . It
omitted all display advertising and squeezed
in its regular features and a comparative smat
tering of news.
By Thursday, the M-T had obtained a small
supplemental allotment of paper from WPB and
resumed something of its normal appearance,
although it was still running tight. According
to -the M-T's thank-you note, the public was
patient and cooperative , during the brief
emergency period.
The Medford restriction was one of the most
drastic steps taken in Oregon in connection
with the paper shortage', but the state's papers
are generally doing what they can to meet a
tough situation.
In' active cities like Klamath Falls, where
population remains at u high level and where
there is record demand for newspaper services,
it y a most difficult problem. Here at the
Herald and News we have undertaken a number
of '49ace-saving projects, and must continue to
do: less than we would like to do in some
phases of newspaper activity.
Our public, too, has been patient and co
operative. i t
Bow down to Siskiyou county, whicn has
made its Bed Cross war fund quota with money
to .'spare. The quota .was $28,000, and most
recent figures show a total of $30,770 already
in.: - That's a job worth early emulation in
Klamath county, which is still . considerably
short' of its $64,000 goal.
By MALCOLM EPLEY
i ASHINGTON, March 30 Mr. Roosevelt's
VV reauest for power to cut the tariff an
other 50 per cent (making 73 per cent in all
from the 1934 rates) fell on hard congressional
soil
Some not alone the republicans say it rep
resents practically free trade and nowhere near
the actual difference between the cost of pro
duction at home and abroad which is what
a lood tariff rate should be. I know at least
two highly placed democratic senators who
are displeased.
Labor is beginning to grumble also. AFL's
Matthew Woll came out against it in a state
ment which is supposed to be a forerunner
of labor opposition. There certainly will be
fight and the outcome is, by uo sound means
foretellable yet.
The president called for it as one of "the
kit of tools" he needs to handle postwar trade,
but the republicans are calling it a monkey
wrench. Without doubt it contrasts strangely
with some ot the other tools he asked for.
ds. i.L'uiariy tne proposed balloonisn world bank
which is to lend money for the development
of industry abroad.
. Under our own foreign loan and rehabilitation
program we gave money, for one example, to
finance the building of a steel plant in Brazil.
For another, during the AAA days when we
restricted cotton production, the cotton growing
industry in Brazil' and other countries grew
rapidly. . '
This competition is such that at a recent
congressional hearing there was testimony that
cotton can be produced in Brazil, Mexico and
other South American countries cheaper than
in the United States. For others, we have put
money into Mexico to finance mineral industries
which can compete with us. Indeed, the New
Deal favors Industrialization ot the world.
' . . . . '
Wallace Theory
NOW the New Deal argument, used by Mr.
Roosevelt, is the familiar one heard often
from his new Commerce Secretary Wallace,
that as we are a creditor country and all the
world owes, us (indeed, far more than it can
ever repay) the tariff theory must be abandoned,
at least 75 per cent abandoned.
But the tools in the kit he has asked for,
would make us even more of a creditor nation.
In short his whole policy is a spend-lcnd pro
' gram for. foreign trade, the giving of money
to the bank to enable them to build more
competing industries and the giving of money
to the stabilization fund to support a fictitious
value for prospective foreign buying nations,
and cutting the tariff generally sq everything
can get into this country. We cannot avoid
winding up out ot such a proposition with every
nation owing us even more than it does now.
Would anyone then think the erasure of
the final 25 per cent of the tariff would help
our creditor position? Or would we not then
realize our creditor danger had merely been
doubled? Certainly the more we spend and
lend the more they owe us and the money
comes from our people.
There are so many problems to foreign trad
that the vastness of the subject is beyond
human grasp, at least beyond mine. But, in
any case, the new world we are coming into
will involve wholly different problems than
those of oldtime tariff walls. - , . -
-Think, for instance, of Chinese labor, costs
and the Russians' government production system'
which can value anything at any price. Both
of these were not involved seriously before,
but they may become more important than
trade with Britain and Canada (the two nations
the president mentioned.)
a a a
Answered Himself
IT seemed to me Mr. Roosevelt rather answered
himself with one basic observation in ' his"
message to congress. He said:
"We cannot hope to maintain exports at
levels necessary to furnish the additional
markets we need for agriculture and industry,
income for the farmer and jobs for labor,
unless we are willing to take payments In
imports."
Well why not? This rather directly suggests
that what we should be doing is taking Imports
for exports. That seems to imply an entirely
different ideal a managed foreign trade, in
which imports could be selected so as not to
compete with industries or farmers and the dis
parities in currencies, labor costs and the pay
ment of trade with our own money would not
be involved.
We could for instance, acquire unlimited
stores of rubber, quinine and the vast list of
products which we lacked nearly to the point
of disaster in this war, and strengthen the
deficient material resources of the country,
which might in the long run be the best
answer to our creditor position.
