The steel strike called three weeks ago by the United Steelworkers has shut down approximately 90 per cent of all production. This is a strike that was unwanted by the workers, by the steel companies, and by the pay ing-public. But the union heads have gotten the feeling that if they do not get wage increases for the workers periodically they w ill be replaced by someone who will. It has never occurred to them that they might educate the workers that they were already w ell o ff in being the highest paid of any organized workers in the United States, and that without an increase in the output, prices w ill keep spiraling and cause other products to rise in cost and create a vicious circle of both wages and prices increasing—that we call “ IN F L A T IO N .” One of the most alarming ideas advanced as a reason for the wages being increased was that the steel com panies had made so much money during the previous period. If McDonald, who heads the union, believes this alone is a good reason, he is advocating socialism. If the worker shares according to the profit take, he should share in any losses that might occur during any other period. Paying wages based on previous profits would cer tainly create havoc for our economic structure. Should the BEET GROWER pay more for having his crop thinned or hoed this year than last because he made more money? Should the grocery clerk or bank teller be paid more because the boss worked harder, man aged better, advertised more effectively and thereby netted more money9 Shall LABO R also take over M ANAG EM ENT? The steel industry has indicated that it intended to hold the line, unless forced to do otherwise by some government body stepping in and making a settlement mandatory. This is just what the union wants, and most observers think w ill happen. They think it w ill mean a slight increase in wages for the union, thereby saving face for McDonald, make steel prices higher and again saddle the paying public with the burden. This is a form of the creeping inflation that some economists think might be a good thing for us. A recent note of encouragement was a news item of strikers going back to work for the same wages after being out 13 months. We do not know if the price of steel is higher than it should be. If our anti-trust laws arc working properly, competition should take care of it. We are not opposed to unions as such but are opposed to increases of wages when not justified and made just so that the union heads w ill hold their jobs, or that political parties be in a posi tion to be helped at election time. W e feel it is time that you ask your elected repre sentatives to show enough courage to enact federal laws that w ill control the lawless elements of both the unions and industry. Public sentiment can do the job— re member the pension deal proposed some years ago, and more recently the decision of the U. S. Senate to open its pavroll records for the public! —T.M.B.

GOOO HOUSEKEEPING e a s y - N Y S S A V E T E R IN A R Y C LIN IC Plastic Bag Use By Health Board By Dr. Harold M. Erickson Oregon State Health Officer We have just received a supply of an excellent new leaflet called “ Plastic Film Correct Use and Mis-Use,” which will be available for free distribution through our office and those of local health departments around the state This leaflet was published by the Society of the Plastics Indus try in cooperation with several national health, safety and indus trial organizations, and of course is designed to help prevent any more tragic suffocations of chil dren which have been so much in the news this year. The leaflet makes two major points which should be remem bered by every parent of small children: plastic film is not a plaything, and it should be de stroyed once it has served its in tended purpose If not destroyed, the leaflet points out. children playing with the ultra-thin limp film could become enmeshed and suffocate. Fortunately we have not yet had any such accidents reported ' in Oregon, although dozens of such fatalities have been counted else where in the country by the U S Public Health service and the National Safety council As a public agency, the State Board of Health obviously does not recommend for or against the u««' of plastic or any other product which is safe when properly used Protection of children against a p.as* bag seems 1 o me to be the pr . «■ of parent s. although the j ind u y and health organizations certa v have the duty of calling potent ,i hazards to their atten tion.
