Factory Workers Deserve Luxuries Not Just War Bonds
Ruth Millett argues war workers wives spend freely on luxury items when their husbands boost production. A Seattle shop sold 22 suits at 125 dollars in two days and a trailer dweller bought a 98 dollar suit with 65 dollar bag and 18 dollar shoes plus a 25 dollar hat. Millett says if such goods are sold they tempt human nature and denies blame to buyers or to producers, urging market constraints instead of moralizing.
