Th year 1946 could be one of the happiest and most prosperous in the history of this country, but there are too many dark clouds on the horizon to arouse much optimism. Economically, the United States is embark ing on a voyage that is fraught with dangers and chaotic conditions that can be remedied by cooperation between labor and capital, but at the present neither group is willing to sin cerely arbitrate their differences. Production since the end of the war in Japan has been hampered more by strikes than any one thing, unless it be the desire of manufacturers to a- void large-scale production until after January 1, 1946, when the lower tax schedules became effective. If the government cannot halt the threatened steel anti electrical workers strikes or if those involved cannot settle their differences amic ably, production lines will be tied in knots. Steel and electrical products are essential in the production of a large percentage of the articles that the American public is now clam oring for. With every dealer in the country practically with out any of the merchandise that has been off the market, manufacturers will be several months filling the shelves, even at top production. It is obvious that strife be tween capital and labor will postpone capacity production. Return of servicemen and continued idle ness of strikers will cause unemployment that can be reduced only by increased production. As the labor market becomes flooded, wages will drop. Th reduction in wages will tend to bring down prices, giving a silver lining to the dark clouds of inflation. Internationally, we are interested principally in peace. We have won the war, but we are a long way from insuring peace. With much of the world still in turmoil, the world will do well to complete organization of some kind of an organization to help nations to settle their differences without resort to war. Conditions now indicate that we may be also disappointed during 1946 in accomplishments in the field of international relations. Our struggles back to normalcy s going to be slow, and appearances prompt the belief that its fruition will not be achieved in 1946.
