Insure Against Idleness and
Hard Times
Help your country to keep its place in the sun, in the commercial war
between the nations. The transfer of the industries from war work to that of peace is a delicate operation. It is no time
to rock the boat, as the old rules of business cannot he relied on and employers must risk much. We should give more
loyal support now than ever before.
Working men and women can serve their own interests best by freeing the country from labor unrest. The work
ingman wants prosperity. No one can do more to bring about the new prosperity than can the workingman. Labor can
help or binder while the transfer of business is being made.
As soon as normal conditions have been reached, the next five years in this country will be the most progressive,
prosperous and successful of our history, and as predicted by E. H. Gary, Chairman of the U. S. Steel Corporation, the
results will astonish even the most optimistic of to-day.
The trade routes of the world will soon be re-established, and from every quarter of the globe will come demands
for our products. France alone, of the Euorpean countries will spend ten billion dollars in the United States. 700,000 new
residences are needed right now in this country. Public works projects which were stopped on account of the war will
soon give employment to many of our workers.
Capital and Labor have a common meeting ground in a determination to make such depressions as that of 1914
impossible in the future. The old morgue on Twenty-sixth Street in New York was used as a shelter for shivering men. It
is the duty of Congress to see that there are no bread lines.
We must bring about a genuine democracy in business and in industry.
Capital cannot be absolute and Labor cannot be arbitrary. Each of them owes a duty to the
other and must play the game fair. Employers need education in the readjustment of human relations.
Their responsibility since the war is much greater. A complete understanding is necessary.
Industry and Ability Are Rewarded
