BRITAIN has now fol- lowed the United States, West Germany, Sweden and Denmark in bann- ing the sale from Janu- ary 1 of food products containing the artificial sweetener cyclamate. This follows a US govern- ment report of the develop- ment of deformities and cancer in animals injected with large doses of the sub- stance. Experiments with rats have shown that prolonged doses of cyclamates produce genetic changes which would corres- pond to cancer in man. In further tests, chick em- bryos injected were found to be deformed on hatching. This raises by implication the ques- tion of pregnant women who habitually consume food and drink - especially the types used for dieting-which con- tains cyclamate. Senator Warren Magnuson, chairman of the sub-committee which handles the budget for the Food and Drug Adminis- tration, said that the chicks 'present a chamber of horrors at hatching age ... Many are twisted spines, crippled with eyes, dwarfed underdeveloped and legs, and missing wings and abdomens so deformed that the organs are visible.

'Flippers' 'Perhaps the most frighten- ing on some are the familiar "flippers" for arms and legs that were seen on Thalidomide babies.' Small wonder that there is consternation at the Ministry of Agriculture. Its Food Additives and Con- taminants Committee (FAAC) had already produced two re- cyclamates and, in ports on the absence of 'decisive' proof, decided in 1968 to allow the chemical in all foodstuffs.

This decision was taken in spite of doubts expressed by RENAULT workers at Le Mans defied the management's lock out (reported in last Satur- day's Workers' Press) by forcing the doors of the plant on Monday morning and reporting for work as usual. The decision to defy the lock-out was taken at a mass meeting of 6,500 day-shift workers outside the factory at 7 a.m. Police stood by as the workers broke down the locked gates, but they did not intervene. The Stalinist-led union, the CGT, stated that on no …ac- count would it back 'adventur- ist' demands which would have the effect of sharpening or prolonging the conflict. In the afternoon the CGT and the CFDT (the other main union at Renault) told a press conference in Le Mans that the management had agreed to re- sume negotiations on wages.

One of the men's demands is an allowance for working in high temperatures. Meanwhile, the unions said, the workers would continue to demand entry to the plant until the lock-out was called off. Similar demands The Renault management claim that a wage increase at Le Mans would lead to de- mands for similar rises all over France. If the dispute lasts more than a few more days, the

However, there is evidence to suggest that during this pro- • be cess the cvclamates may converted into a more toxic chemical. Furthermore, research car- ried the Paracelsus out at Institute in Austria suggests that three groups of people could be in danger from an uncontrolled intake of cycla- with existing mates: those liver cells, those damage to whose heart action is below normal, and people suffering from a deficiency in the anti- blood-clotting mechanism.

Since British law does not require a manufacturer speci- fically to state that a product contains cyclamate, it is diff- cult to find out how exten- sively it is used. It is certainly widely used in oft drinks but, according to a report from the British Nutri- tion Foundation, producers of chemical recommend its use in a wide range of foods, 'including bread, buns, rolls, cakes, pastries, canned fruit and fruit juices, preserves, jams, jellies, sauces, pickles, dressings, canned vegetables, confectionery, and cured meats'. Contradictory Cyclamate may not be used in ice cream, but it is sold in tablets for use in tea and other beverages by slimmers and those on diets, like diabetics.

The FAAC took a contra- dictory position in that, while recommending that cyclamates continue in use, they proposed that the British Industrial Bio- logical Research Association investigate five points connec- ted with their use, including the fact that high intake causes diarrhoea ! We do not have to look far below the surface find to vested interests at work.

The industry has sugar financed most of the research that has led to the present bans. In Britain, the British Sugar public Bureau, a relations set up by Tate organization and Lyle, the British Sugar Corporation, and Manbré and Garton, has been most active.

It has given briefings to MPs, lectured to women's in- and townswomen's stitutes as reared alameet band them freely available to any- one interested. Undoubtedly there is a simi- lar lobby in America where involves the billion- the ban dollar-a-year soft drink and diet food industry whose pro- ducts are used by some 75 per cent of American families.

'Safe side' In announcing the British ban, the Minister of Agricul- ture, Mr Cledwyn Hughes, im- plied that it was being imposed to be on the safe side and that the rats in the US experi- ments had been given doses which would have been the equivalent in a man weighing 150 lb of 500 eight oz bottles of soft drinks a day during his entire life span. If so, why the panic stations?

One thing is certain whether the US findings are conclusive or not. As long as it is extremely profitable to use drugs and chemicals which have been inadequately tested on human beings, the Thalidomide tragedy will occur again.

Yorkshire Schools: 4.00 Scepisty: 41:15 News Castle FOLLOWING hard on the heels of the ban on cycla- mates pending further re- search into their toxic pro- perties, recent work by Swedish biochemist Göran Löfroth raises doubts about the wisdom of letting the organophosphorous insecti- cide DDVP be freely avail- able in Britain ('New Scien- tist', October 23). DDVP was synthesized in the late 1940s and is mar- keted by Shell under the trade name Vapona. It acts, like related com- pounds which are being stock- piled as nerve gases, by in- hibiting certain chemical pro- cesses which play an essential part in the transmission of nerve impulses. Vapona is extensively used in houses, canteens and food- shops; on dog-collars and on aircraft. It eliminates the need for frequent with spraying as DDT and for three lasts months.

Thursday, October 30, 1969 THE SHELVES of any well-stocked British or American library today contain literally scores of books on the 'monetary crisis'. Especially over the last decade there has been a veritable flood of reports, pamphlets and investigations into the nature of the illness now afflicting the capitalist monetary system. A favourite theme of much of this work is that capital- ism is now suffering from an acute 'liquidity crisis'.

The threat to world trade and the future stability of the system is, we are informed, an inadequacy in the means for settling international debt. The gold, dollar, and sterling re- serves are inadequate to meet the needs of an expanding world trade. Only if means are found to supplement these present re- serves can crisis and disaster be averted. This has led many eminent economists and bank- ers to demand the creation of a 'new money' which would either replace or provide an addition to the present sources of liquidity. Why not allow a central such as the Inter- national Monetary Fund, to print an agreed quantity of such paper money which could then distributed to the capitalist states ? Indeed such proposals, in a limited form at least, have been put into operation in the form of the creation of Special Drawing Rights (or 'paper gold'). And as early as 1944 Keynes had proposed the the va world re- creation of a new serve currency - Bancor - which would have done away with the 'barbarous relic' of gold. In the elaboration of such schemes the capitalist class shows that the true nature of the systems remains a mystery to it. the space of this brief In article we shall show why such 'solutions' are Utopian and arise from a total misconcep- capitalism tion of and the nature of its crisis. Marx himself treated with great scorn many of his con- temporaries who also failed to see the real role which money played in capitalist economy.

They always tended to see it as a clever device which man had invented to overcome the problems and inconveniences of barter. of exchanging goats Instead for sheep, one used money as the intermediary in the pro- cess. In reply Marx stressed that capitalism possessed a series of unique features which meant that money played a quite different role under this mode of production than any of the bourgeois economists realized.

These features we can briefly summarize: • All production tends to be for the market and not for the producer's own use. In other words, commodity pro- duction tends to be the domin- By an industrial corres! US INDUSTRY increased its stake in Europe by over £2 millions during 1968, Com- merce Department figures re- vealed earlier this week.

But the impact of rigid con- trols on overseas investment by the Nixon Administration is underlined by the fact that over £1.3 millions of this total was raised outside the United States, virtually all through the Euro-dollar market. Take-overs It is this severe competition for funds in the European has money markets which forced up interest rates to ant form of production under capitalism. or the Labour power, ability to work, itself becomes a commodity. • Production, the means of which are privately owned, is undertaken for profit.

He showed that each com- modity had two 'aspects' or 'sides'. It was in the first place a use value-a pair of shoes was useful for walking in. At the same time it had an exchange value. It contained a definite pro- portion of the total labour time of society - the time which under average condi- tions had been involved in making the commodity. The value It was this socially necessary labour time which determined the value of the commodity.

Thus a pair of shoes which, under average conditions took twice as long to make as a shirt would be twice as valu- able. Now a capitalist does not engage in production in order to create use values. In fact he has no interest in the use to which the com- modities which he produces might or might not be put.

What interests him alone is the exchange value contained in the commodities he makes.

He will buy commodities (C) and through the exploitation of labour he will transform these commodities (say steel, glass, rubber, etc.) into coal, other commodities of a greater value (C') and a different use value (say motor cars). But here the process cannot finish. Henry Ford is not interested in a field full of cars. In order to restart the pro- cess he must exchange his cars into another commodity which he can then use to purchase even greater quantities of steel, machinery, rubber, glass and labour power. In capitalist economy it is money which plays this vital role. A capitalist thus starts with money (M), buys his com- modities (C), transforms them into commodities of a greater value (C) which he then must realize in the form of money (M'). This was the process of Henry Ford: What inter- ested him was a commodity's exchange value. Industrial correspondent record high levels and added considerably to the financial crisis facing European capital- ism. Two more US monopoly take-overs in. Europe were announced on Monday. Westinghouse Electric plan to take over a majority stake in the equity of the French firm Jeumont-Schneider, while Borg-Warner has announced proposals to link up with Zahnradfabrik Friedrichshaten, of West Germany, to produce transmissions automatic marketing in Europe. The giants of the world capitalist system are preparing themselves for battle, not only against each other, but the working class. accumulation which capital drove capitalism along. Marx showed that it was a break in this process which produced the tendency to- wards breakdown and crisis inherent in capitalism. Thus with the development of capitalism money separates itself out from all other com- modities. Its use value lies solely in its command over the exchange value of all the other commodities. should gold play But why such a crucial role in the world monetary system ? It has been the basis both of the old gold standard and the gold - exchange standard which replaced it after 1934 currencies of the when all world were eventually linked to gold via the dollar. For the bourgeoisie this always remains a question mystery. Gold, they tell us, plays this role because it is 'intrinsically valuable', because it is 'preci- ous' or 'rare' or even that it is 'beautiful'. Others give up even these so-called 'explanations' and in- us that gold enjoys its form present status because it 'has always been the basis of the monetary system'. In fact gold, because of the peculiar characteristics of this commodity, has been selected through the processes of his- tory to play the role of world money. This is why it remains, ultimately, the means of inter- national and debt payment settlement and under capital- ism must do so. What are the special material qualities of gold ? It is extremely durable, of uniform quality, easily divisible and weighed. Its comparative rarity in the earth's crust also means that a large magnitude of value is contained in a small quantity of the metal. The fact that the technical conditions under which it is mined have been relatively constant over a long period has also helped to stabilize its value. Worthless In periods of expansion and the capitalist may prosperity, worthless spurn gold as form in which to store money.

It is the onset of the crisis which makes clear for all to see the role which money (gold) plays. With prices fall- ing the capitalists rush out of commodities and into money.

'On the eve of the crisis the bourgeois, with the self-suffi- •that springs from in- ciency toxicating prosperity, de- clares money to be a vain imagination. Commodities alone are money. But now the is cry everywhere: money alone is a commodity! As the hart pants after fresh water, so pants his soul after money, the only wealth.' ('Capital I' p. 155 Kerr ed.) This is why the hope that capitalism can continue to re- solve its crisis simply by re- sort to the printing press through the creation of a new international money is utterly illusionary. Gold cannot be dispensed with under capitalism. If the confidence capitalists have alone in this form of wealth in a crisis it is because of the particular features of gold as a commodity. To see money merely as a means of exchange-as a lub- ricating device for the system —is to see capitalism as a sys- tem of production for use.

are produced Commodities on this view, sold for money commodities later and new bought. (C-M-C). This, as we have seen, is not the process which drives capitalism along. Capitalism is interested in the production and realization of surplus value in a form which then allows (money) the process to re-start on a higher, expanded level. Money must therefore be a commodity which embodies a definite proportion of so- ciety's available labour time and which can be exchanged as and when required for any other commodity. Paper money contains vir- tually no value in this sense.

This is why Marx, when speaking of 'money' always means gold. Any additions to means of circulation which were not gold backed were for him 'credit'. Of course capitalism con- tinually strives to overcome

Especially in the present • above all after century and the last war with the applica- tion of Keyensian monetary techniques, governments have credit considerably expanded beyond the value of gold in their possession. After 1945 they were largely forced to such measures by the power of the working class, demand- ing higher wages and living determined standards and never to return to the 1930s.

BRITISH and European shipping lines have formed a consortium for the Australian containership trade.
