Price Reductions
President Truman's plea for lower prices of commodity
goods seems to be catching on around the country.
"The first place to follow the plea was Newburyport, Mass. There, the merchants decided to try a week of cutting
prices 10 per cent, and it has worked. In the little port town,
one -merchant reported that his business was better than it
had been on a Tuesday in a long, loner time. '
With Newburyport taking the lead, other communities
around the nation decided to follow suit.
Not only that, but some large industries also made
plans to cut the wholesale price of their goods. The soap in
dustry, in particular, seems to be taking the lead in this department; The consumer now is waiting to see if. the retail prices will come down. , - ' ' ' ,In price cutting, as it was during the period of all-out war production, American co-operation can find a way. Now,
1 all industry will follow the path marked' so clearly by
these few, ournation will have a good chance to prevent that
cloudburst that the President warned about in his recent
address. '.
It is a good start. Now, we must keep it up. The Search For Definitions The UN Atomic Energy Commission has discovered, af
ter 10 months, that it doesn't know what it's talking; about.
So it has appointed a subcommittee to attempt a definition of some basic words. The members will try to find-a common meaning, in five different languages,' of such things as cori-
tol, .inspection, supervision, management; accounting, and icensing. " . ' ' ' ' ' "' That's fine, as far as it goes, but we doubt that it goes
far enough. Also urgently needed. are common definitions of
even more basic words that will serve for all international
discussions, in and out of the United Nations.
Democracy, for instance. Liberty, independence, and
freedom are some others. What do they mean in Russia, Co
lombia, China, France, Greece, everywhere? "Is. there a com
mon universal meaning for them, or only nationalistic mean
ings m nationalistic languages I
The world had better find out. For the seeds of war or
peace lie in those definitions.
