Citizens Interests Mutual

Life, after all, is the business Of getting
money with which to buy the necessities
and comforts necessary for life" said Mr..
Green The men who own the factories
and the men who work n them are in the
sarne boat The interests OF both are alike.
They may disagree as to how the profits
shall be divided but as regards to keeping
the factory going, their interests are one
AMI inseporable.
Previous to the starting of the war. and
following the accession Of the present adj
ministration, the business of the United
States was down to IS per cent Of normal;
IS per cent Of the workers had no steady
jobs Foreign exports were down to the
lowest figure of years. Today they are the
highest they've ever been Accurate fig
ures show that there are now 100000 men
working in the United States to supply all
kinds Of things which other nations now at
war or at peace wanted. There isn't sim
gle thing made or raised in the United
States from the wheat on the farm to auto
trucks, that isn't giving the American peo-
pie work just now.
