Labor Creates
Labor creates food.

LdDOT CREATES lOOu
The possessors of money, stocks
and bonds, the owners of the earth,
only consume food, but do not create
It.
Labor goes forth and tills the SOIL
reaps the grain, grinds it into flour
bakes it into bread.
Labor herds the cattle and sheep,
slaughters the beef. and cooks the
meals.
Labor plants the trees, grows the
fruit, ships it out, and serves it at
the table.
Can you point to one thing in the
process of obtaining food under pres
ent conditions that is not accom-
plished by the brain and muscle Of
labor?
Labor creates clothing.
The owners of the cotton planta-
tons and sheep ranches and silk
worms do not create clothing. The
owners of the cotton gin, the textile
mills and the tailoring establishments
do not work in them. Stocks and
bonds and money cannot raise a single
pod Of cotton, a pound of wool, or
produce yard of silk.
Labor raises and shears the sheep,
raises and spins the cotton, gathers
| and weaves the silk.
Labor cuts and sews, fits and
presses, distributes and furnishes
every garment, from the plain over
! alls that labor itself wears to the
spendthrifts
Labor creates the hats and the
shoes, the ACKNOWLEDGEMENTS
! used for the body Of man, woman
| and child, while on Mother Earth
and when dead, from the baby's long
dresses to the shroud Of our loved
ones when they are laid in the sleep
of death.
Labor creates shelter.
Money cannot build as much as a
wigwam. 1t cannot chop down
tree or turn over a stone.
Labor goes into the forest, fells
the timber, saws it into boards, laths
and brick, makes the steel and iron
framework, cuts and polishes the
granite, laths and plasters, paints
and decorates.
Labor makes the furniture, and the
instruments Of music, curtains and
carpets, stoves and furnaces.
Ten million dollars could not build
corn crib without labor.
Labor makes possible intelligence
Dollars and checks cannot write
books or build libraries. Stocks and
bonds cannot teach school or run
universities.
Labor brings about experience and
writes books, delves into science and
the arts, probes into the mysteries Of
life.
Labor prints and preserves our lit
erature, builds our libraries and
| school houses, teaches our children,
| and develops the young folks.
Without labor there would not be
one single school, not one news
paper or magazine, not a doctor nor
an architect, not painter nor a.
sculptor
! Labor makes possible freedom.
| The time required to get the mate
rial necessities Of life is the period
I of our enslavement
Labor, by its inventive genius and
| it's ability to harness nature and make
her do most of our work, has vir-
tually become the giver of liberty.
Labor can In two or three hours
each day provide the material neoes-
stiles for the whole race. Our pe-
Rod of enslavement can be reduced
still further, and will finally be ell
minated altogether.
Labor thus makes it possible for
the race to be free from anxiety and
worry and to acquire such mental,
moral and social qualities as only
union men can picture.

Indian telegraphists have some
times to deal with amusing mes
