WHAT IS GUMMING THE
WHEELS OF INDUSTRY?
Wages Stop
when work
ceases.
The really
important
questions to
be considered.
Production
first, then better
conditions.
Malicious mis
statements and ignorant
lies.
Prosperity will never come while
the wheels of industry do not turn. . It
doesn't matter what stops them when
they stop, production stops; work must
cease; money cannot be earned.
Under present conditions, the most
important things to consider are:
Whether the demands of the men and
women are fair and just; whether the
Managements are able to meet these de
mands. And what concerns Men and
Management alike is:
How will the granting of
these demands affect the tex
tile industry?
If these demands are granted,
will the workers' condition
be bettered?
Will he or she make more
money?
If we are going to lay a solid founda
tion for permanent future prosperity,
the most ital thing to do right now is:
START TO WORK AND KEEP
AT .WORK
Production must come first in order
to reduce the cost of li ing. The wheels
must start and keep on turning, so
that .money can start and keep on
circulating. Any decrease in Produc
tion, raises prices and lessens the alue
of the dollar in your pocket.
"Do not listen to the Paid Agitators
and Bolshe ists enemies both of the
stead) , conscientious, dependable
Worker and of the Management these
agitators are trying to sow discord and
hatred by malicious mis-statement or
ignorant lies. Don't let them shout or
bully or wheedle )ou out of our job!
Don't let their influence build up a bar
rier between you and vour
ments.
Manage-
Get together
and work
together.
The MEN and MANAGEMENTS
must get together and work together
and stick together.
The MANAGEMENTS are willing!
We belice the MEN and Women
are willing!

. ' TEXTILE COUNCIL
has been formed so that all" engaged in the tex

signed to put the textile industry on a basis where
