...suggests agricultural cooperatives in which small farmers would band together to farm a large spread that would lend itself to mechanization. Governments would have to help with credits and the construction of irrigation systems. Barbara Ward recommends creating rural agricultural centers that would provide the "agro-industries" necessary to employ the peasants left jobless by the Green Revolution-warehouses, fertilizer plants, facilities to manufacture silos and other storage units, work forces for loading and shipping. Taiwan already has a collective program under way, and so far some 7,000 acres in eight different locations have been consolidated into large production...

Says Sal Arnold, a 19-year-old Chicago hippie: "None of us hates the country. We love the country?what it's supposed to be."

The so-called JOBS program (for Job Opportunities in the Business Sector), which was organized by the Department of Labor and by the National Alliance of Businessmen, provides federal training grants averaging $2,400 per man to companies that agree to employ and train the unskilled. A Senate Labor subcommittee has turned up evidence to prove that, while the Government aimed at enrolling 140,000 men and women in the program during the fiscal year ending this month, only 99,000 were hired and fewer than 40,000 of them were still...

That makes it far more difficult for the economy to offset the impact of rising wages by achieving increases in workers' productivity. The output per man-hour of a teacher, fireman or nurse can scarcely be measured, much less increased. The wholesale price index, which does not include the cost of services, has gone up more slowly than...
