A GOOD MAN PASSES
While Harvey (“Cotton”) Clark rests in blessed peace
in the beautiful acres of Quaker cemetery, tiie void that his
passinf has engendered remains as a deep hurt
This writer never dreamed that within a few weeks
after he had received Cojtton Clark’s farewell masea«e: ‘‘Have
a good time on your vacation” that before !he returned Cotton
would have passed into eternity.
We knew Cottop Clark ever since we came to Camden.
Cotton was one of those extremely likeable chaps. We loved
him as a brother. His pissing was a shock that will remain
deepTseated for many years.
We had the happy pleasure of writing the story of Cotton
Clark’s wedding to lovely Lesta Davis. We cherished the op>
portunity of typing the anival of the stork in that happy homC
twice. We cherished the evenings we met Cotton and his
family at the Seaboard depot, where as members of the Ghoo
Choo club* ^^i)t nightly to see the trains go through. This
may appear as a bit of levity in view of the passing of a grand
man, but we knew Cotton loved it-rand so did we.'
Cur heart throbs in grief for the passing of a fine man, a
Christian character, a good husband and an outstanding
father. We miss you deeply Cotton Clark.
Yours, . ;
THE SKIPPER.
STABIUZlNG WAGE DOLLARS
Writing in an official AF of L publication, William
Green recently urged th4 7,000,000 members of his organisap
tion to ‘‘stabilize their wage dollars by helping to increase
volume of production which can wipe out scarcities and the
danger of runaway inflation.” An accompanying cartoon
drives this thought home with its caption: “Bring prices down
by producing the goods!”
If Mr. Green is able to make this message felt he will
be doing a signal service for all the American people, as well
as union inbor. For, as the New York Herald Tcibune puts
it, “Here in the simplest terms is the fundamental answer to
the whole problem of inflation—production.” Them are, of
course, other factors involved, such as excessive government
spending which in itself is a'strong inflationary influence.
But production is at the root of everything.
Gar industrial potential is the greatest on earth by a
wide margin. We have, in addition, a superbly efficient dis-
tributioD madiine to take the goods to the consumer ence
the factories produce them. Retailers, led by the big chain
organisations, have been a hrontline defense against unavoid
able price incrsasss. They haws led the war against the black
market. But, until ade<iuate production is resumed, their woric
can be only partially suoeeesfuL
Price control by government, at best, is butjiieiniwrw
and incomplete expedient Rlshig prices are the sympt^ of
inflation—not the cause. If we prodme the goods we will
have price stability. *
