PLATFORM
OF THE
National Industrial Congress
Adopted April Is. 1914
DECLARATION OF PRINCIPLES

WHEREAS, The Mechanics and Working
men Of the United States, through their duly
authorized and accredited representatives in
National Convention assembled after full and
careful consideration, presented the following
Declaration of Principles, as the embodiment
Of their sentiments, believing that their
adoption would secure more general diffu-
sion Of wealth, and the disenthrallment Of
labor, and
WHEREAS, Such platform reflects our views
At length, AMI we herewith present them for
the endorsement Of this meeting They are
as follows
WHEREAS. The recent alarming develop
ment and aggression of aggregated wealth,
which, unless checked, will inevitably lead 10
the pauperization and hopeless degradation of
the toillng masses, renders it imperative, if we
desire to enjoy the blessings Of the govern
ment bequeathed us by the founders of the
Republic, that a check should be placed npon
its power and unjust accumulation, and a
system adopted which will secure to the la
borer the fruits of his toll and
WHEREAS, This much desired object can
only he accomplished by the thorough unifca-
ton Of labor, and the united efforts Of those
who obey the Divine injunction that Gin the
sweat of thy face thou shalt eat thy bread I"
and,
WHEREAS, The great disideratum Of the
hour is the organization and direction, by CO.
operative efforts, Of the power Of the produc-
ing masses for their substantial elevation. vet
we recognize in the ballot box the great agency
through which our wrongs can be redressed !;
and
WHEREAS, While we fully recognize the
power and efficiency of Trade and Labor
Unions, and International AS now or
gained, in regulating purely trade matters,
yet upon all questions appertaining to their
welfare of the masses as a whole, the influence
of these organizations, without closer union
must prove comparatively futile; Therefore
Resolved, That we submit to the people OF
the United States the objects sought to be &C.
complished by the industrial Congress:
First-To bring within the folds of the or
ganlzation every department Of productive in
dustry, making knowledge a standpoint for
action, and industrial merit and social worth
not wealth-the true standard of individ
ual and national greatness
Second-To secure to the toiler an equal
share OF the wealth which lM helps to create:
more Of the leisure that rightly belongs to
him more SECRETARY advantages; more Of the
benefits, privileges and emoluments Of the
world; in a word, all those rights and privi-
