The Work At a Gla nee ! By LESLIE EICHEL Central Presa Staff Writer NEW YORK, Aug. 13.-Probably the most significant headline per taining to economics in recent months appeared unobserved recent ly. A business columnist in the New York Times said, in his headline: “ 'Educating' critics of trade treaties, j Exporters launch a campaign to con vert industries which have assailed! deals. Hold all producers gain. Steel, textile, glass and other Interests benefit by the rise in exports, they contend.’’ These statements are based on a pronouncement by George Bauer, former head of the World Trade league and an executive of the Auto mobile Manufacturers association. (Auto manufacturers particularly are eager for reopening of foreign markets.) Bauer asserts that “gains abroad tinder the more liberal expert poli cies of the administration are shared widely among producers in all lines supplying automobile manufactur ers”’ But it Is Harry Tipper, of the American Manufacturers Export as sociation, who fires the heaviest guns, in denouncing the steel in dustry for contending that 3,900 workers were deprived of employ ment as a result of the importation of 73.836 tons of steel from January to May this year. Tippers olays: The steel industry’ is one of the largest beneficiaries of the increased foreign trade due to reciprocal trade pacts. The indus tries showing the largest gains in foreign s?les are all heavy users of steel. Automobile. machine tool, tractor, farm equipment, electric refrigerator business, machine man ufacturers, all use large quantities of steel. “Machine tool builders report they are using 4,100 workers on the pro duction of goods for foreign con sumption this year. This compares with an average of 900 employed on similar work last year.” * A A Caustic The cotton crcp season has ended with most of the cotton In the U. 8. In the funds of the government or under Its control. Which brings this scathing com ment from the Wall Street Jcum&l: “When a speculative comer commodities is engineered by ir# vlduals it is anathema to legislators and government officials; but when It is done by a government depart ment or agent It becomes as sweet Incense offered to the political gods of whichever party happens to be in power. A corner in cotton is eith er being engineered now or else like Topsy is Just growing. Facts and figures stand out like a handwrit lng on the wall and they need no Daniel to Interpret them." I • t Stockholders Angry ■ Some ol the stockholders of public utility holding companies have been writing fetters that seethe with an ger. Here is part of one from Paul J. Egan of Jersey Shore. Pa., to the Wall Street Journal: “I have seen the spectacle of util ity linemen, meter readers, sales men and other like employes, solicit ing signatures for petitions to be sent to their respective congressmen, from such sources as pool rooms and public pubs where, for Instance, the majority of the loungers never held a share of a utility stock in their lives, but whcse names might by their numerical length mean something to a befuddled congress man governed by political exigen cies. “I feel that the dollar spent by The Associated Gas & Electric cor poration In their numerous adver tisements throughout the entire country, against the bill, would have been far more appreciated in divi dend resumptions now or in the fu ture, by their deflated preferred and common stockholders." 9 • 9 One to Vs A retired business man, now liv ing at Belle Glade, Fla, a reader of this column in the Palm Beach Times, writes:, "The chief need of this nation, In this nation, is more tolerance. The chief trouble now is there has nrt been more tolerance to new ideas. "I mean tolerance to ideas about government. “But I have no hope there will be tolerance ... * RADIO PROGR AMS TUESDAY.
