NEW YORK, May 1.—Profits of
Russian factory owners are tO' 6e lim
ited to 5 or 6 per cent on their in
vestment, and the manufacturers are
to be required to reinvest a quarter
of their profits, under the Bolshevik
economic plan as outlined by Leon
Trotzky, now Russian minister of
war and marine, in an interview with
Professor E. A. Ross of the University
of Wisconsin.
Professor Ross was sent to Russia
by the American Institute of Social
Service to study the social conditions
of that country, and has reported his
conclusions to the institute. The Bol
shevik revolution took place while
Professor Ross was in Russia. Trotzky
was foreign minister when he ex
plained the Bolshevik economic pro
gram.
“Is it the intention of your party
to dispossess the owners of indus
trial plants in Russia?” Professor
Ross asked him.
“No,” Trotzy replied. “We are not
ready yet to take over all industry.
That will come in time, but no one
can say how soon. For the present
we expect out of the earnings of a
factory to pay the owner 5 or 6 per
cent yearly on his actual investment.
What we aim at now is control rather
than ownership.”
“What do you mean by control?”
“I mean that we will see to it that
the factory is run not from the point
of view of private profit but from the
point of view of social welfare dem
ocratically conceived. For example,
we will not allow the capitalist to
shut up his factory in order to starve
his workmen into submissiveness or
because it is not yielding him a profit.
If it is turning out economically a
needed product it must be kept run
ning. If the capitalist abandons it
he will lose it altogether, for a board
of directors chosen by the workmen
will be put in charge.
“Again, ‘control’ implies that the
books and correspondence of the con
cern will be open to the public, so
that henceforth there will be no in
dustrial secrets.
‘‘Do you propose that the profits
earned by a concern shall be divided i
among its workers?” asked the pro- i
fessor.
“No,” said Trotzky. “Profit-sharing
is a bourgeois notion. The workers
in a mill will be paid adequate wages.
All the profits earned will belong to
society. It is only pure profit that
would be divided.”
“Where will the money come from
that will build new factories?”
“We can impose on the capitalist
to whom we allow a dividend of 5 or
6 per cent on his capital the obliga
tion to reinvest in some industry a
part—say 25 per cent—of what he
receives.’’
“If in Russia you hold the capital
ists down to 5 or 6 per cent, while in
other countries they can hope for
twice or thrice as much return, won’t
Russia be stripped of capital?”
"They won’t be allowed to remove
their capital from Russia at will,” said
Trotzky, significantly.
‘‘I submitted this Bolshevik pro-1
gram to various Russian economists j
and all agreed that the Russian work
men are too ignorant and short
sighted to conform to the sound prin
ciples which may be held by their
leader,” added Professor Ross. “Con
scious of being the masters of the
industrial properties, they will not
submit themselves to indispensable
discipline. They will not follow the
counsel of technical men, and they
will ‘eat up the capital,’ so that be
fore the factories have been long in
their hands it will be impossible to
keep*them going.”
