(By Byron Price.)
(By The Associated Press)
WASHINGTON, D. C., Nov. 27
Much more may be heard of the pro
posal to give industry a new boost
by arbitrarily increasing production.
Some government economists have
been flirting with that idea for some
months.
Now President William Green of
the American Federation of Labor
has brought it into the open. He
says a 30 per cent production in
crease would solve many problems.
In theory, a most alluring case
can be made to support that pro
phecy. It is argued that if all fac
tories increased production suffic
iently, something like this would
happen:
unemployment woum cease to oe
a worry. The enormous relief ex
penditures would shrink to a neg
ligible figure. It even might be
possible to balance the budget next
year. Necessary borrowing to meet
such an expansion would loosen
credit generally, and get the idle
reserves in bank vaults into circu
lation. The larger payrolls would
stimulate buying. With industry
going full speed again, and every
body in a job, a new psychology of
confidence would be created, per
haps heralding the end of the de
pression.
Difficulties in Way.
.. Naturally, there is another side to
the case. Even those who warmly
support the project see certain diffi
culties of practical operation.
. Presumably a production increase
would have to be brought about
| largely through voluntary action- on
I the part of industry... Any govern
ment attempt to force it certainly
would be resisted.
Many industries could not accept
the program unless they were pre
pared to do some heavy borrowing.
Could they be induced to borrow,
while they were doubtful if they
1 could sell their greatly increased
output at anything. like cost plus
reasonable profit?
.. It can be argued that the practical
effect would be to transfer the load
to relief , expenditures , from, the
treasury to the pocketbooks of pri
vate employers, who then would be
taking all the risk of the gamble on
better times.
.. And it can be argued in rebuttal

that those who have enough cash or
credit to operate a business these
days are taking the risk anyway,
because continued relief expendi
tures mean bigger taxes, and those
who have material resources will
be the ones who pgy in the end.
Lower vs. Higher Prices.
Critics of the proposal also contend
there is no need to take the risk of!
a ruinous over-production, the evil
effects of which were so clearly de
monstrated in the beginnings of the
depression.
Business generally is opposing the
30-hour week, yet it is pointed out
that such a shortening of work
hours might have the comparative
virtue of relieving unemployment
and getting idle dollars to work
without increasing production at
all.
Finally, the natural thing would
be for greater production to result
in lower prices, and much of the
“new deal” philosophy is based on
the premise that higher prices not
lower ones, hold the key to prosper
ity. Would it be desirable now, it
is asked, to turn the cart all the
way 'round and start in a new di
rection?
The economists never will agree
about it. Whether the President
will be impressed remains to be
seen. Meantime, Mr. Green has
given the public something interest
ing to think about.

AN OPEN LETTER
NOVEMBER 7th, 1934.
TO THE PEOPLE OF NOME :
Believing it Is pardonable, we take pride in bringing to your attention
the service we have given over a period of many years to Nome, and particularly
the service given'you since the disastrous fire which destroyed practically all of
this city’s business section.
Within twenty four hours after the fire started our fast steel cargo
and passenger steamer the S. S. Dellwood, was on berth ready to receive cargb
for Nome. She was loaded with all dispatch and when ready was sailed from
Seattle to Nome. Immediately the S. S. Dellwood sailed, another of our steel car- (
go steamers, the S. S. Depere, was put on berth to take care of all the overflow
cargo of the S. S. Dellwood’s and to accept any new cargo offered. We want to
particularly point out the speed with which these ships were loaded and sailed.
Upon arrival here the two vessels discharged their cargoes with all dispatch and
have now returned t# Seattle.
The United States Government gave to Nome for emergency relief
purposes the sum of FIFTY THOUSAND DOLLARS. The ALASKA STEAMSHIP
COMPANY, in cutting their freight rates in half, contributed practically the same
amount. With that, this company, if it could be possible, gave even more prompt
and better service than ever before. This service was badly needed to help recon
struct Nome before winter weather set in. It was given gladly and whole heart
edly and we are proud that we did give it.
r
.* To give Nome people full opportunity to order needed goods, after
all other steamers had sailed for Nome, our S. S. VICTORIA sailed later than
she has for many years past. She has discharged her cargo for Nome and is now
nearing Seattle, the termination of her voyage
Nome, rising Phoenix like from the ashes, is an exemplication of the
spirit of the far north showing the will to conquer under the hardest of con
ditions. We are proud to be associated with you and to have had a part in the re
building and reconstruction of a bigger and better Nome. We are proud to have had
such an extensive part in this work and we would like to compliment you upon
your Integrity, your spirit, your strong heartedness, and place with it the sincere
hope that you will never again be stricken as of this recent fire.
Most sincerely,
ALASKA STEAMSHIP COMPANY
