CLIMBING UP
THE LADDER
The problem of the OPA is a
mighty serious one- for everybody. It goes round and round,
and where it will end, nobody
knows. When wages are increased, costs of production also
increase. When more men work
and receive wages, consumption
increases with tlieir added purchasing power, and the need for
greater production is the result. The need for greater production calls for more labor and.
wider distribution and when the
maximum of production and
consumption is reached and.
kept on that level, we have
what would be called a balanced
economy.
There has never been a balanced economy in history.
There always have been the
"have nots," the poorly fed, the
poorly housed, the poorly clothed, while at the same time
fruits have rotted in the orchards, warehouses glutted with
lif's. necessities and not moving
because ofe lack of purchasing
power. This has been so even
when prices were so low that
there was no profit in producing
these same necessities of life.
If John Doaks gets a price
for his farm products" which
bring liim cash returns which
will allow him a profit and enable him to maintain a fair
standard of living, the man who
buys his products must also receive a wage that will allow him
  to   maintain an equally    high
_„     _ ,       ^ standard of living.    If not, he

Southeastern Michigan fishermen who cannot afford time for
a trip north when trout season
opens April 27 can fish a dozen
creeks, two lakes and four
ponds without going out of
their own corner of the state.
Though trout water in this
section of the state is extremely limited, legal-sized trout
plantings were made by the
^conservation department in 19-
45 in Paint creek and the North
Branch of Saline river, and in
Duck, Trout and Paint creeks
and Clinton - river, Oakland
county.
Trout ponds in Washtenaw,
Jackson, Calhoun and Barry
counties have proved popular in
spite of regulations specifying
an eight-inch limit, a limit oi
two fish a day, special hours
and fly fishing from the shore
only.
