Profits Are Not Ail Glory <by Joseph Lister Rutledge) All the left wing oratars who expend sa much energy in decry- ing the iniquity o! profits would be well advised ta fake a quick look through the pages o! a rather important publication. You don't know your business life complete- ly i;ntil you know it also from the point o! view of the Taxation Di- vision of the Department o! Na- tional Revenue. This quick glance through the 1949 edition o! Taxation Statistics might suggest ta these leff-wingers that there is no quch thing as a profit system. There is only a pro!it-and-loss system. Now 1947. the year under re- view in these sfatistics, will go down in business history as anc of the distinctly better years. Yet. More flavour? That's because it's better tea TUA Plants and carried on hoplng for better things. 'It rpight be interesting for the profit-conscious left-wing orator to know that of the mîning ven- tures. in which men have so hope- fuily put their moncy, in the sure knowledge that the develop- ment of our mining îndustry is one of Canada's surest promises of continuing prospêrity, only one in three made any profit at aIL The manufacturer, in somewhat more stable ventures, did better, of course. Three and a bal! suc- ceeded for each one that just got by. Construction, riding the top of the wave, provided four suc- cesses for one failure. Almost half of the public utilitiés, hall of the service organizations and haîf of the finance corporations didn't make any profits. Four wholesale establishments an d nine retail establishments made a profit for 'évery one that didn't. Probably it was about a good average year. Do you see what this means? One quarter of all the wage- .producing undertakings operated at a loss r;%ther than a profit. What was it kept them in busi- ness? It was the hope that had materialized for the remaining seventy-five percent. The hope that another year would be bet- ter. Suppose there had neyer been a profit. and hence no reserves ta faîl back upon when the lean years came? What would have happened ta a community where a quarter of its undertakings had ta go out of business? What would have happened ta the develop- ment of this country? What would have happened ta those of us who, through no fault o! aur own, happened ta be associated with the unsuccessful undertak- ings? Profits aren't all gravy. They are the rent of capital, the insur- ance of industry. the safeguard of national well-being, the promise of progress.
