Hitler Speaks to the Hens
Hitler is probably the first man in history to whom it has
occurred, during an egg shortage, to speak to the hens about
it. ““We request that every hen,” said his Nazi Party News
Agency the other day, “lay between 130 and 140 eggs a
Der Fuehrer may have something there. He may have
something, in fact, of particular interest to California. Be‘cause if California’s legislature passes a bill now proposing to
fix the price of milk by law, it will become necessary for California to speak to the cows.
Suppose we fixed the price, and didn’t let the cows in on
it. They might go ahead and produce too much milk for the
demand, at the fixed price,
Or if the uninformed bovines -preduced sparingly, the
farmers could get no increased return per gallon, as the law of
supply and demand would normally grant them, to compen.
sate for the reduced quantity.
But with the cows cooperating, the thing could be done
without unfairness to farmers. And it should not be much
trouble periodically informing the cud-chewing quadrupeds.
that the state would, appreciate their giving just so many
quarts each day, depending upon the price fixed.
Only one disquieting thought occurs—the chance that
Nazi hens, now expected to obey Hitler’s decree for more
eggs, are more intelligent than California cows. Could it be
impossible for our cows to understand and obey our orders?
But no. All things are possible.
All things must be possible in a world where men are
proposing to repeal the law of supply and demand. — Contributed.

. _ That Housewives’ Strike .
That headline the other day announcing the possibility
of a general nationwide housewives’ strike must have set a
number of men to thinking what a calamity a “‘sit down’ by
the woman of the house would be.
Imagine the kind of ad you'd have to place in the “help
wanted’ colmuns to get some one to do her work. ‘Wanted:
one person who is excellent cook, skilled buyer, tailor, dishwasher, laundress, janitress, governess and nursemaid for
children, to work 16 hours a day for no salary but a variable
allowance.”
Actually, of course, the threat is not of a “‘sit down”
zgainst husbands, but a buyers’ strike by the housewives in
protest ‘against rising prices.
The threat may bolster the forces now moving against
some causes of “‘artificial’’ price increases—that is, those increases which benefit neither farmers nor labor. Among. such
causes are monopoly, price fixing, and the inflationary dangers of government spending.
The government has dusted off and is now applying the
anti-trust: laws; Congress has just shelved the price-fixing
Tydings-Miller bill; and Congress at last seems to be going in
for economy in a serious way.
Whether prices go up to a point that would cause a
housewives’ buying strike will depend:in part, at least, on the
“follow through” force of these price-checking movés: Let’s
hope they're effective, for a nationwide buyers’ strike would
be just the thing to plungs us back into the depths out of
which we've been climbing for the last four years. — Contributed.
