Mount Pleasant News (Newspaper) - May 19, 1958, Mount Pleasant, Iowa The it. Pleasant news fair these Days by George e. Sokolsky vol. 80, no. 118 it. Pleasant Iowa monday Kyd nil May 10. 1958 by Carrier. 30 per week by mall. 17.80 per year the inefficient producer Walter c. Furst writes me that he cannot understand Quot Why you propose that the american consumer should subsidise the inefficient american producer. Would it not be in the common interest if we permit these inefficient producers to go out of business and let the excess labor be hired by the More efficient producers who can compete on world markets?.�?T�?T this is an extremely interesting idea because or furst does not recognize Why the american producer cannot compete Price Wise with West German. Japanese or soviet sphere products in world markets. After All there was a period when american producers were the most efficient in the world and during two wars it was the american producer who set a Standard of production unequalled in the history of the world. It was the american Mill and factory that won world wars i and ii it is now evident that the american producer has out need himself Cardinal suffers stroke Given last sacraments de Gaulle asks for control Rome hns Samuel Cardinal Stritch was anointed and Given the last sacrament of the roman Catholic Church tonight a few hours after he suffered a stroke. A cerebral stroke deprived him of the Power of speech and partly a realized his face and right leg. His condition was the attack partly paralysed the 70-year-old prelate s face and right leg. Rut he was Able to speak a Tew words through the left Side of ills Mouth and was Able to move his right leg slightly. The cardinals physicians said he Quot Suli ered a cerebral vascular Accident Quot and that Quot there is a weakness in the Muscles of the right leg and fare a monsignor close to him said he was under heavy medication in Padio free Europe per a tins map amp t Jericho jewelry to close out a i f or to a read y to w a r com Nan v ceases location h / in world markets and has there cheating he was in great pain but w Tore become non competitive in Many Fields even in the american Market. To understand this it is necessary to discover the causes of this Price Factor. Walter Reuther has recognized this problem in the automobile Industry and has made several proposals which do not seem economically feasible. The principal cause is High wages which in their relationship to Price become cumulative from the labor that goes into the gathering of raw materials in mine and farm to the painting of the finished automobile. About 25 percent of the american labor Force is affected directly or indirectly by this one Industry and the largest item in its budget is wages and benefits. Wages reflect not Only the a Merican High standards of living but also the inflationary trend which has been continuous since the begin neg of the korean War. Those commodities which Are a product of automatic or even Semi automatic machinery requiring utly the or worker but no m Cuie. Siuw cd in be produced t. One country As Well As another if that country has Access to the raw material required to make them a flaming machine can i 0 a orred by a coolie As Well As by it i go a shool graduate and act Ual that is a Niru All Over the world. Bringing on an Industrial revolution in Many so called backward countries. What or. Furst suggests by implication is tha the lower Standard of living countries Are More efficient Inan the higher Standard of Livi if countries because they can product identical item at costs. Despite the Medicine and the pain St i itch w As Able to say a few words and his mind remained Clear. Stritch is the first american born Churchman to be appointed to the roman curia the roman Catholic churches governing body i he came to Rome on april 26 to take up his duties As pro prefect j of the sacred propagation of the Faith. Two Days latter he was taken to the Sana trix clinic with a blood clot in his right . The had to be amputated but Stritch appeared to have recovered completely. Yesterday he said mass with the Aid of two monsignor and his associates reported that he considered this accomplishment As a sign of a Complete return to Good health.

Meanwhile the state department refrained from comment on Gen. Charles de Gaulle s offer to take Over control of the French government a spokesman said the situation was an Quot internal matter Quot on which it would by Quot inappropriate Quot for the u. S to take a stand. Thu Oln neb it to City psychologist to that accused a i Char tot eth i Kwen Taftt Ousby sick Quot from a Quot i disease bin decline a Kansu stilled today murder i is danger Ivere mental of place a doubtful about override Effort a second Factor i this situation is taxation which is an item of Cost.

Countries where lower taxes need j fact Lon for Many years. P actual to be paid May have a Price and j by while he was serving with Vantage Over countries where High j the b Lutish expeditionary forces in or wages Are paid. This particular world War i. By gives an advantage to those a Hollywood associate said that after the Colmans a Halls of Ivy Quot countries which have enjoyed a Merican economic or military Aid thus relieving the producing personnel of those countries of part of the Cost of operations and by that Means putting them in a better position than their american competitors who have to pay High wages and High taxes. The third Factor in efficiency is the relationship of depreciation reserves to the value of currency of a country. It is absolutely impossible for old Plant and equipment to produce efficiently As new Plant and equipment. In Many instances. European asian and South american Plant and equipment Are. In effect gifts from the United states and Are More modern than the competing american Plant and equipment. In a word we Cut our own throats competitively in world markets. Replacements Are a question of taxation when a depreciation Reserve requires 1939 costs to pay for 195f costs the penalty upon the american producer is about two and one half times and therefore makes him non competitive particularly with those countries that benefited by our generosity As for instance. Soviet Russia did to the time of $11,000,000,000, through Lei id lease. What or. Furst is thinking about is the classical free Market which is the Ideal of All capitalistic philosophers and which exists nowhere on the face of the Earth today. This might have been a better world if the free Market did operate but that is impossible in j own an Era in which socialism in one form or another prevails in so Many countries. Television program went off the air the actor his wife and their daughter Juliet went to Europe where his lung condition became worse. The Colmans had been planning a trip to the South of France next August. Comedian Jack Benny with whom Colman frequently appeared on radio and television said when informed of the actors death a i am deeply saddened at the news. He was a great actor a Greal gentleman and a great although Colman had continued his acting career to a limited extent until recently he had spent considerable time at his Home in Santa Barbara trying to shake off the effects of the lung trouble.
