COAL PRICES AND OTHERS.
COAL PRICES AND OTHERS. The Social Messages of the New Order. By J. Morgan Rees, M.A. Lecturer in Economics and Political Science, University College of Wales. Your readers will ho interested in the j impending unnouncement of a substantIal reduction in the 6s. advance per ton on coal imposed in July 10th last, and it is but human of mc; to point to the fact that U I told you so on July 21st in my article It can be done." I pointed out on that date that The basis and estimate of the Coal Controller are illusory, bocmifie they have heen taken over a short period, for a long period priced article, before any changes in control have come about." We shall oil rejoice in the reduction of the price of coal. Without burdening your columns with statistics, it is miffi- cient to point out that even on the total estimate of 217 million tons of the Con- troller, the high price obtained for export and bunker coal at 57s. 9d. per ton instead of the Oeddes estimate of 35,.R., a substan- tial reduction equal to 3s. 8d. per ton is possible on home sales. In addition to this the estimated output for the yeaj ending July 15th, 1020. will exceed the- Geddes estimate of 217 million tons by 12.551.910 tons, making a total of 220,551,910 tons for the year. This should mean a further reduction to add to the 3s. 8d., as to brinsr it somewhere in the neigh- bourhood of the 6s. imposed. And this despite the fact that nationalisation is a policy has been adopted in regard to the mines, and that in addition the Is. 2d. limit per ton in profits has not yet been imixjised. What would have boon the roo suit if nationalisation had been adopted? It is legitimate to argue that if output can be increased des-pite all the diffieul ties of the present situation, when the Coal Commission Majority Report has not been adopted, that if it had been carried through the figure of 250 million tons esti- mated by Justico Sankev would have been secured quite easily, and this would have meant a reduction in the price ruling be- fore July 10th when we take into con- sideration the high prices ruling for bunker and export, And these reflections bring us to the point at which we must seriously con- eider the change that is coming over the industrial system generally. Schemes for the joint development of industry are in the air and are coming down to earth. Witness the proposed arrangements for the control of the railways by the inclu- sion of five railway representatives with the five railway managers as a central executive body. The moral of all these changes is that we are to see a closer connection than over between the State and trade generally than we have ever had in the past. This may take the form ot a delegation of power from a State Depart. uient to an executive composed of man- agers and trade union organisers or repTl- sentatives. We are evolving a new social order, whether consciously or otherwise The ultimate goal we believe to be nationalisation or something very much like it. when we shall have, not collee- tivism, but a far bigger thing—a State based on national service, upon commodi- ties and services produced for use and no! for profit, when national and individual welfare based upon co-operation will be the end of all effort. As citizens we should welcome thess changes, for they mean a change in social outlook. We do not believe in sudden 01 drastic changes, but the trend of legis lation and of economic action is inevit- ably tending in the distinct and one direc- tion of the control by the community over the sources of its life. In this new order there will be as much room as ever for all workers. The enlightened and well- informed employers realise this, and they will lie a-9 managing directors the brains of the new movement, if they but see and visualise the changes that are already upon us. During the late 19th century and the first decade of the 20th we were riding the horse of materialism on strictly scientific principles, but failed to see that it was running away with us until at la6t the great catastrophe happened: The com- mon platform upon which we can all stand in the future is the right of all citizens to full, development physically, mentally, spiritually. No vested or othei interest will stand in the way of thi right. We must humanise our system of industrial production, and ride the horse for welfare and not for profit. No one scheme will effect this change, but a change of spirit and of outlook. Let us be open to test any and every way that leads on to the light and the rccognised right of a man to be treated as a man and not as a cog in the economic machine, or a wheel in the myriad wheel" of production. We know that man made trade machines, and machines can he made to do all or nearly all the heavy work of mankind. But before the war man had to "follow" the machinery or be scrapped; he was in danger of becom- ing a slave to machinery from being a slave to nature. Wealth increases, and man is likely to decay unless we grasp this fact that science has harnessed nature, and man must harness right be- liefs as to the meaning of life and worldly success. A man we know intimately will soon retire after o\er fifty years' service in one of the big industries of South Wales. He is only a humble workman, and has seen 1,)vei,s ,i i tb(, stnic four generations of employers at the same industry. Thef-e were all upright, honour- aide m;'n, But this man will leave i'ho? work?. unw'pt. unhonourcd, and unsung I "-a, mere hand. Hc is already ullslln" has been forced to move from one mill to another as the pace of production gre? faster and faster, making way for younger and stronger men; but he 6ÍJl1 works <? at the same tafk. the 6,ame mechanical movements of forty years ago. Pensio-n' ty ylc, t. I X0t at all. H is nüt known to tne powers that be on!y to a circle of old workmen His avera? 111 (,. 1?25 years r a.4? for ()cl. I wee l ?. and oi) wouM not equal, ?2 10s. 0d. a wek. and on hi. he has brought up four ch;Idren and 1'milt and owned his own house. i?t when he ceases to do his task he drops 'I out of the economic machine, and i-- faced with dependence on the charity of hjs children, who may or may not be able to keep him going, having their work eul out to keep afloat themselves. And lb. Old Age Pension is 10 years ahead It is this that is wrong: the gospel of the Su'ndav is too far removed from the work- spel of tho" Monday, and there is sufficient health in us. Our economic luo has separated the master from the work- man, the workman from his tools. Enl- ployers as well as workmen must become more efficient n welfare as well as in wealth production, and then we shall have a chance of bridging this gap. tvery pro- ductive enterprise should have its welfare executive as well as a material profit and loss account. The mental as well as the material outlook of his employes should he the concern of every employer. It is I important for him to know the point oi view of the workers; to try to understand iheir lack lustre lives, their dull leaden eved despair, the su?c?ncy or insuib- ciency of their wajes, their houses, their books—in short their welfare. This is {.ep'-l.e and would hayo a. tt^moii- dous effect on their efficiency and on the I increase of wealth, and, therefore, on the general level of comfort. j The social messages of the new order will be the :Industrv is (social service not personal gain. Man should judge economic activities not by the profit he gets, but hy the well-being of others. Work shall be incuipbent on all, poor and rich. If wo have evolved an economic system which no individual can control, and yet which controls every individual, wo must change it. Efficiency shall not mean the sacrifice of the workers humanity to the needs of material pro- duction. It is wrong to take advantage of the necessity of others to drive a bar- gain it is wrong to adulterate goods or to charge exorbitant prices for them. 'In) .short, industry which is based 011 degraded human labour ought not to bo carried on nt all T'ropertv shall rest not on an individual basis," but shall be relative to the good of society a common wen. and lestlr if an institution is soeinlly liarmful, no vested interest is a valid pica for maintaining it.

rig I 1 By Appointment to H.M. The Kin: j IMPORTANT ANNOUNCEMENT "J BY THE PROPRIETORS OF I NESTLE S & IDEAL MILK || While it is generally known'that we have consistently kept down the price of IS ?! the best quality Condensed Milk in the world, it is not so generally appreciated | II that at the present control prices, the cost alone of the fresh milk and pure I ? sugar in a tin of Nestle's Milk produced in England during the winter months, ? is actually more than 1/1?. This means that, when the cost of tins, labels, cases, labour, wholesale and retail profits an d distribution charges are added, # ?i there is an actual loss to the firm of 3M. per tin. ? By restricting sales during the Spring and Summer when fres h milk is cheaper ? and more plentiful, we have been able to keep our prices low during J the Autumn and Winter when fresh milk is scarce and dear. This is the ? reason why Nestle's can now be retailed at 1/3 per tin-a price which is based on i| our average cost of production, here and in other countries, over the whole of 1919. J This has brought about the extraordinary result of unknown brands of inferior | quality being offered to the Public at our advertised prices, which is only possible because Great Britain is the one civilised country in the world which | I has no legal standard as to what" Condensed Milku means.. J l Consequently in the present position of food scarcity I the maximum retail prices fixed by the Food Con- i 1 troller become also the minimum with the result that whether it is the highest possible quality such as Nestle's or Ideal, or the many inferior unknown j brands which appeared during the scarcity, | the price is the scime to the public, and there is no protection at all for them except that afforded by I the old established brands NESTLE'S and IDEAL. The wave of unrest that has arisen is largely due to high prices, and particularly that of iresh milk at lid. and i/- a quart (to which it has been raised from the 8d. per quart charged during the summer). Since ist November, although it contains a quart of fresh milk, Nestle's has only I been increased a halfpenny per tin, to meet the increased cost of sugar, and the price of "Ideal" has not been changed at all. The Retail price of Fresh Millc is now three times as high as it was in 1914, Sugar is five times as high, whilst Nestles .is only two and a half times its cost in 1914- "Ideal" (containing no sugar) H costs now only twice as much as it did in 1914. This benefit to the public is because we have been quite satisfied to increase our trade, and increased earnings have been due solely to this increase, but our ratio of profit has been during the war—and „ r still is-much less than in 1914. We feel sure that this announcement will interest the consumer and will lead to an increased demand | v" for the best articles only, which demand we hope 1 I to be able to meet, seeing that the average 6 r daily supply of about 400,000 tins of our milk || v for the Navy and Army through 41 years of war || has now been "demobbed for civilian use. I Whatever their country of crigin, NONE OF || THE CREAM in the original milk is EVER || removed from Nestle's or Ideal. j|L With more than 5° years* experience and good wilI behind every tin, you get the very best; value that 11' money can buy, when you purchase Nestle's and "Ideal" —the result of specialisation, which is un- obtainable where a variety of dissimilar articles j are produced, by what may be called Universal Providers. When you pay the maximum price fixed by Government Control you also want the maximum quality and value. Anything less is at your expense! |1|1 Appearances are deceptive to the casual purchaser, so beware of imitations even in larger tins; they may || be more remunerative to the trader, but they will certainly cause disappointment to the consumer. || Send us a line if you are unable to obtain adequate supplies of II NESTLE S MILK CASH PRICE 1'3 PER TIN IDEAL MILK  CASH PRICE j?l?

 ASKED FOR H fS 'CARDS'II
  ASKED FOR H fS 'CARDS' II Court Decides Man Was Not I Dismissed. An adjourned case was hf:,Iird at the South West Wales Munition Court on Thursday afternoon, when the cinini of a workman employed at the Port Talbot Steel Works for a week's wages in lieu of notice again came up. The defence of the firm at the previous hearing was that after tho Armistice work was of a necessity intermittent, and all the men agreed to work occasional tllrns instead of ceasing work altogether. They contended that the employe was not dismissed at all, but had asked the fore- man for his "cards." The Court came to the conclusion that i there had been a. misunderstanding, and that the claimant had not been dismissed, and therefore could not claim. They had to go on the evidence before them. and the claimant, despite the fact. that he had been told at the last hearing to mil the witnc'-ses he stated could My.

Does it pay to be a Parent P ? A PROMINENT daily paper re- A contly discussing this subject -— in its colnmna concludes that it doesn't pay. Babies, like everything else. are costing more. Clothes, pnuos, medieincs, and nurses' wagps are all H up," and" likely to rise still. Yet, who begrudges the little ono its keep. Certainly not Mother. If it costs four timos as much baby mustn't guffcr. At the same time there's no reason why money should be wasted buying food for baby which is only half i feeding it and sometiiiies aot really 11 feeding it at all. Anet this is very often the case where ordinary cows milk in either its fresh, dried, or condensed I forms are used. For when- you think pf it Nature doesn't mak cow' ID ilk to fp?d babies. It i? ?n heavy, it has a curd or c?<?'f- like portion which the strongest baby I cannot properly digest. Mothers think II that when they weaken or thin the milk by adding water th?y this difficulty, but they don't. They reduce the quantity- of indigestible matter, but don't make it any more digestible. Whe-n you add Moeelers Food to milk it makes erery bit of nourishment; in the milk available for even the weakest baby digestion, and the com- bined Moseleys Food and milk is as like Mothers' Milk as possible. Ba who have been unable to retain the weakest milk and water when put on Moeeleys Food bavo changed from fretful paling little mites to quiet contented babies, —from being a. sonrc^ of worry to & real addition to life's best aujoymeat. And this, remember, without adding a farthing to the cost of parentage, foe I Moseley's Food gives treble value to the milk used. Indeed, it means a difr-. tinct saving, and although a shilling or two a. week saving would appeal to no mother if baby suffered, when it Jm!&Jl" that bah?s health, growth, and e?oy-? meat ia mcreaeed it is well worth wh?T to test Humanises Cow's Milk for Baby.
