Corporation profits, reporter! by these concerns and the Fed-
eral Government, should stir the imagination of workers.
In its latest “Monthly Survey of Business,” the A. F. of L
shows that from 1922 to 1929, according to government reports, the
combined profits of all corporation in this country nearly doubled
Profits were $5,183,000/100 in 1922 and $7,538,000,000 in 1927. Prof-
its in 1929, it is estimated, will total $9,900,000,000. or 91 per cent
over 1922.
_ While profits were soaring in these years, wages in manufac-
turing advanced but 19 per cent. Gains by railroad workers were
less.
The steel trust quietly announces that profits last year total
$258,659,889—more than a quarter of a billion dollars. This smashes
all peace-time records.
The R. J. Reynolds Company, one of the “cigarette kings,” re-
ports a profit last year of $32,216,000, as compared with $29,080,000
the previous year.
The Government's preliminary report on income tax returns
for last year shows that the number of millionaires increased from
290 in 1927 to 496 the following year.
Workers must keep in mind the difference between wage’s and
profits. The worker uses wages to buy food, clothing and shelter.
The upkeep of his home, education of children, maintenance of fam-
ily and uncertain provision for unemployment, sickness and old age
are included.
When a corporation figures profits, this does not mean total
amount received, as with wages. The -corporation first marks off
all costs. These include liberal amounts for depreciation, replace-
ment, interest, sinking funds, taxes, advertising, wages paid, prince-
ly salaries to officials and managers, lawyers’ fees, welfare work,
private detectives, all strikebreaking ventures, etc.
After skilled accountants exhaust their ingenuity in disposing
of income, the balance, generally speaking, is called “profits."
It is against human nature to expect these corporations to boast
of their earnings. That would mean higher wages, excess profit
taxes and inheritance taxes. A “poor mouth” is the invariable rule.
Reports of huge profts are found in obscure corners of the fin-
ancial section of a comparatively few newspapers who often do not
appreciate their significance.
They are being watched, however, by the A. F. of L., and that
organization says in its latest “Survey of Business:”
“Huge increases in corporation profits show that American
firms have the means to raise wages.”
There is but one way to secure a higher wage. To win that
objective workers must do their own thinking. They should not
accept the views of so-called economists who strives to maintain the
status quo.
If these profits are unchallenged a greater concentration of
wealth and the pauperization of additional workers is inevitable.
