He failed to indicate however ’that the cause of inflation in Canada, as well as in the rest of the capitalist world, was the profiteering and price-gauging by the monopolies. It did not oc— cur to him to mention that corporate profits are at an all—time high; it did not occur to him to_point 'out that, if the monopolies are to maintain their prese- nt rate of profits, wages , must be cut.

This is precisely wh- ,at Trudeau and his axemen are doing. But they dare not call it what it is - wage controls - for that would be too conspicuously discriminatory; he calls it "wage and price controls." Nonsense! Profits continue to soar as prices continue to rise. This phrase of his is but verbal camouflage to confuse the workers, farmers fishermen, students, et-a1., to quell resistance.
