MEWION IS LARGELY J IIYTHI t When Capitalists Speak of It They Usually Mean Non competition. By B. C. FORBES. NEW YORK. May 30.—C0-operation in this country instead of being founded on the Golden Rule, is too often of the pinch beck order. It seldom rings true. It is usually one-sided. Co-operation should work, nqt one way, but both ways—for the benefit of the buyer as well as the seller, for the consumer as well as the producer. Here the consumer is left out of account in most cases. The capitalists who plead for co-operation instead of competition do not mean the Golden Rule kind of co-operation; they mean co-op eration only among themselves—to pro tect themselves without any regard what ever to the poor, defenseless user of their products. Is this brand of co-operation likely to last? Does it deserve to last? Weighed in the scales of justice, the advantages are nearly all at one end of the beam. * * * In other lands co-operation does not mean the banding together of the prin cipal producers or sellers of a certain class of merchandise It means, as a rule, the organization of societies for the sup plying of goods to members and for the division of all the profits to the purchas ing members. I have in mind one verx important concern which, from modest beginnings in the retail field, has grown into an enormous enterprise, including wholesale distribution, manufacturing, im porting. etc. It is a real co-operative so ciety. AU the nrofits are distributed among those who have contributed to them, not to a handful cf directors or cap italists. Co-opeiative stores are being founded in an unostentatious way In New York. The spirit of thrift, w’bich at last is gain ing some ground in this country, is cal culated to stimulate the movement * • • Had not our capitalists who preach "co operation" better Rive some thoußht to what constitutes genuine effort of that kind? Is it not time that they realized that co-operatioA instituted solely for the benefit of their own class, with scant regard for 'he consumer, is not worth? of their better selves? Co-operation which is only eighteen inches when it should be a yard long is not anything to brag about Rather is it a species of selfishness, selfishness on a grand scale. When capitalists combine merely to fur ther their own interests, to so entrench themselves that, they 'nave the public at their mercy, then, instead of bestowing upon such action the term "co-operation," a less flattering word should be used The anthracite producers co-operate in the capitalistic sense of the word. Well, we hate just been treated to a fine specimen of their handiwork. They an nounce that they must tighten the screws upon householders because if they at tempt to so treat the corporations, the] factories, the big w orkshops, that con- t sume part of their product, competition from soft coal would be encountered'. Think of it! Their unblushing plea, put in plain terms, is this: The big people, the corporate con sumers. would resent an advance in anthracite prices They would use bituminous. Therefore, in order that we may not antagonize them, we have doubled the advance to the ordinary | householder because he has no way of escape, because he is at our mercy. No more untimely and impolite econom ic blunder has been committed in many a day. The twenty-five cent advance does not end the matter so far es the con sumer is concerned. That is the addi tion made by the closely organized mine owners How much profit the retailer will demand remains to be seen. A coal man with whom I talked last evening explained that as the retailer would have to employ more capital to handle a given number of tons, clearly he would have to add something to the twenty-five cent. In justice to this authority I should add that he strongly advocated a restriction of the producers' Increase in price to ten cents per ton instead of twenty-five cents. He characterized the action taken as un likely to lead to trouble for everybody in the business. * • • Were I given to prophecy. I would fore cast an early abolition of the twenty five cent advance. Are the anthracite mineowuers large enough to reconsider their action if not. they are not likely to remain as great a power as they are now. They will. of a certainty, hat e their wings clipped.
