THERE IS a widely accepted belief that American workers have been exploited by employers. This popular conception holds that the increases in labor's wages and welfare are only the direct result of exerting pressure on these employers. Meaning, pressure in the form of banding together into unions and armed with strikes and walkouts. To a degree, these means have bettered the lot of American workers. Circumstances have forced paths of action. In some cases, inconsiderate employers have worked hardships upon employees. In all fields of endeavor there are persons and groups oblivious of anything save their own interests. Often these few must be budged from their positions. It would be folly to say that workers' rights never need protection. But likewise foolish to draw a hard and fast dividing line representing employers as exploiters and unions as benefactors. Wage u ONE FACT which Paradox forms the keystone of the "exploitation" thought trend is the huge increases in wages of labor during the past 25 years. Union groups Gint to this as the hard-won oty of a continuous war with a greedy employer army. True, wages during this period have skyrocketed to levels unthought of in 1919. But, surprisingly enough, there has been no increase in labor's share from the income of industry during this period. , i Actually, the share of labor out of the income of industry has not risen or fallen measureably during that time. It has been steady regardless of the ups and downs

The Exploiters? By GEORGE S.BENSOK Resident of Harding Colege SaaaquArinnaas

of unions. In 1909 among manufacturing industries 9% of employees were unionized. In 1945 the total was 45 U. However, during this period the wage earners' portion of the gross value of manufactured products remained almost stationary—about 10$t. Production A LARGER income Regulates to industry means the worker’s share is larger. Production makes the difference. Workers were wretchedly paid a century ago. They were paid, however, in the same proportion to what they produced as our workers today. . Production per man hour increased greatly in the last century. The workman's pay jumped. This increase came about through investment by American people in those factors which would raise production. Superior plants and better tools were set up for a larger production and higher income. Some of the most important factors that bettered labor’s position were contributed by the employers and investors—the so-called "exploiters?' It is not hard to recognize the high wages of America’s workmen today as the logical offspring of a society which encourages competition and individual initiative. By continuing to give business the go-ahead signal, we’re setting the stage for greater gains and benefits to labor. By permitting too much power to fall into the hands of irresponsible union groups and government bureaus, we are defeating our own purposes. Brains, perspiration, and initiative given free rein in a democratic society represent the only real approach to a workable Utopia.

Tech’s variety show, “The Sketchbook of ’47,” has been holding tryouts in order to determine who will represent Tech in the theatrical world this semester. A few days ago, a voluntary assembly program was held to give advice to the aspiring Techites who thought they would want to be members of the troupe. Judges for the tryouts are C. S. Stewart, director of program production, and William Moon Alonzo Eidson, both members of the Technical music department. DONT FORGET TO GET YOUR CHORAL CLUB CONCERT TICKETS! I
