Earn S C In a free market and in the absence of subsidies and speculation, the cost of human effort, be it in the form of wages, salaries or other forms of compensation, quickly determines the price we pay for goods. Higher wages without a corresponding increase in productivity are inflationary. Nothing is gained unless higher wages mean more goods and services, more customers and more good jobs. This requires individual application to the job in hand and technological progress all along the line better ways of doing all the things that must be done to produce and deliver products ito customers at reasonable prices. This takes time. A minority, by monopoly or by pressure group action, may temporarily profit at the expense of others. But the idea of wage increases all along the line without a corresponding increase in productivity is a delusion. All the people cannot lift themselves r ' PRICES While the war is over, the aftermath of war pre sents big problems. War is wasteful in blood and treasure. This terribly one was especially so. It was not prosperity even though to some it may have seemed to be. And the immediate aftermath of such a war cannot be prosperity either.

WAGES AND General Motors wages are e now at an high and are importantly higher than the average wages paid throughout the country for similar work. The present government stabilization policy PRICES ' permits wage increases without government approval only if such increases will nor result in a request to increase prices. The formula the OPA has proposed for pricing our new products does not recognize or allow all the actual increases in our costs that have been incurred since 1942. ''Neither is there any provision in the pres ent OPA formula for increasing prices to ' compensate for the additional costs that would be incurred if wages and salaries were increased at this time. A sound and equitable solution must be foqntj in the interests of not only our 400,000 employes, but our 426, 000 stockholders, our 15,214 automobile dealers, who have had no new cars for over three years, our 10,000 subcontractors and suppliers and their employes, and the more than 10,000,000 potential customers who are anxiously waiting for new cars and our other products they need so badly. -- General Motors did not make big profits during the war. Although sales and employment doubled, the average yearly net profit in dollars earned during the war was less than the average prewar net profit. Dividends paid to stockholders averaged less than those paid before the war. The war profit limitation policy voluntarily adopted by General Motors immediately after Pearl Harbor was so reasonable that the resulting profits were accepted in renegotiation without change by our government for the years 1942,' 1943 nd 19 44. During the war, Victory Was Our Business, WARTIME PROFITS EXCELS for 40 hours work. Their demands if granted would reiult io over 67 hours pay at present base rates foi. 4fl hours of work where plants are working on such country. Our second effort to meet a critical situation will bog down unless the real facts are recognized and sound measures promptly taken to solve the problems. Temporarily, while we are liquidating the war, there should he a sound national wage-pric- e policy to stabilize and expand the economy, all-tim- Demands are( being made for higher wages without any corresponding increase in production, on the assumption that the additional costs can be absorbed from profits previously earned or frdfn uncertain future profits. General Motors cannot use money saved up for many years for the purpose of modernizing and expanding its plants and providing more good jobs, to pay excess wages for work not performed. The money cannot be spent twice. Neither can excess wages be currently paid from presumed future excess profits when a realistic forecast of costs shows there will be no such excess profits. Nor can we pay from current income the increased wages demanded when the present OPA policy holds prices to substantially 1942 levels especially in view of the fact that there have been important increases in wages and operating costs since 1942. WAGES REFUSED Runaway inflation must be avoided. If an adjustment in price levels must be made at this time , the interests of all the people must be fairly considered.
