Cheap labor cited as cause for U S shift to Japan plants

The piece argues that cheap Japanese labor drives American firms to set up plants in the Orient. It claims 1961 per capita Japanese purchases of goods reach $6.02, totaling over a billion dollars, and critiques tariff-free debates by noting imports are priced at cheap labor costs while exports rely on U S costs, suggesting every billion dollars of Japanese goods reduce U S production by about ten billion. It also notes payroll and welfare costs in Japanese plants compare to U S plant taxes and payrolls.
