That kind of supremacy" means a repetition
here of what has already happened in certain for
eign countries-jealousy and i'll will abroad, weak
ness and decay at home, and finally, when trade RI
vares shall have plunged into war, our defeat at
the hands of any nation which has based its prepar
Iedness and prosperity justice to the workers
DURING THE YEARS OF PEACE!
Boasts regarding the nations wealth and the size
of it's exports will mean little to American labor UN
TIL EVERY AMERICAN WAGEEARNER HAS
ENOUGH TO MAINTAIN HIMSELF AND FAM
lily IN COMFORT AND SECURITY. Nor should
they be source of pride to any good citizen until
this result HAS been achieved.
American supremacy abroad must NOT be pur
chased by squeezing labor AT HOME. Industrial
prosperity must reach standard that bespeaks q
just distribution of earnings before hope to
reach commanding position based upon the REAL
PROSPERITY AND CONFINEMENT OF OUR
PEOPLE
Labor will do it's share to put America in the fore
front Of the worlds great industrial nations. But it
will resist with all its power the efforts of men who
when they plan campaign of commercial conquest,
regard labor merely as troublesome factor to be
in meeting world competition.
+ Labor is not means to the end of world suprem
acy Rather the comfort, security AMI liberty Of the
workers is the end, and American supremacy with
out that represents only WIDER FIELD FOR EX-
|PLOTTATION.
Never was there more glorious opportunity for
labor to drive home the lesson that nations great
ness depends upon the well being of the men and
women of it's work shops and that it's security rests
upon their willingness to sacrifice.
Labor will sacrifice gladly and willingly JUST IN
PROPORTION AS 1T HAS A STAKE IN THE Ma
TONS PROSPERITY AND A VOICE IN THE
SHAPING OF ITS POLICIES.
Whether labor HAS these things depends on labor
itself Those who are not vrile enough to take action
inevitably condemned to be the pawns Of Others
Only by organizing and acting together can labor
play it's part in the great of world supremacy now
opening for America Unless labor does this it will be
but the pawn of those who see American supremacy
in Terms only of export figures and bank balances,
and not as well in terms Of HAPPY, FREE MEN
AND WOMEN!
