Newark leader. ([Newark, Ohio]) 1917-1946, 1920-12-10

What has becomeI of the propa-
ganda for increased production and
break-neck speed in industry that
flooded the country less than two
months ago? Is this propaganda en-
joying momentary ebb according
to planned schedule, or has it been
forgotten permanently? The world
needs oduction-full-time produc
tion-as badly now as it needed it
three months ago, or two months
ago. While the propaganda was at
its height labor pointed out the fact
that employers were preventing full
production and went into some detail
to show that such was the case,
lamentable as it was.
The proof of employers insincerity
was strong then. 1t is convincing
today.
Today we read such headlines as
these:
thousands of Idle Forcing Wages
Down."
"Seventy-fve Thousand Detroit
Workmen Lose Factory Jobs"
Increase Reported in Labor Sta
bility."
Labor stability" means that work
men are sticking closer to the jobs
they have in the fear that they may
not be able to replace those jobs if
they quit.
1t is but a few weeks since the
American woolen mills and the Penn
sylvania railroad created a sensation
by laying off large numbers of men
in the midst of the political campaign.
Mill towns continue to report num-
bers of working people laid off.
We are confronted with industrial
hypocrisy in highly perfected de-
gree.
The world needs production. The
employers have been saying SO for
months. They began with the arm
istice and they continued until few
days ago. Now they have stopped
saying so.
The reason is not that the worlds
needs have been satisfied. The reason
is twofold: Initiation is coming out

Will Support U. S. Board

Pressmens' Home, Tenn.-The ac-
tivities of the federal board for voca-
tional education were indorsed at the
r cent convention of the International
Printing Pressmen and Assistants
union. In three resolutions the union
lists pledged their support to the
board.
The first resolution relates to the
federal vocational education law of
1917, which provides funds for edu-
cation in trades and industries, ag-
riculture, commercial pursuits and
home economics for persons over ID
years of age. The resolution instructs
the unions board of directors to trans
NIT to all locals full information re-
garding this law and urges organized
labor to see to it that their respective
state legislatures place the admins
tration of the vocational education
law under the present public school
system and that no dual educational
boards be created.
The second resolution refers to the
boards rehabilitation of disabled ex-
service men as "sound humanitarian
and economical policy" it calls upon
all unions to assist in "the placement
of rehabilitated ex-service men in
such employment as they may be
qualified for"
The third resolution relates to the
vocational rehabilitation of persons
disabled in industry. This law, passed
by congress last June. is referred to
by the unionists as a distinct ad-
vance of incalculable value, both to
industry and to the workers engaged
therein"

WHAT'S BECOME OF THE more
PRODUCTION" CRY?
By President Gompers in American Federatonist.

of the business structure and in that
process employers see what they be-
lieve to be an opportunity to cut
wages though there has been no in
fation in wages. Secondly, the more
unscrupulous employers believe that
by laying off workmen with an an
nouncement of curtailment neces-
sites, the same or other workmen
can be hired within a brief time at
sufficient wage reduction to make
the temporary suspension justifable
from profit point of view.
When inconvenience is caused
temporarily by the workers in their
effort to overcome obstinate and un-
justifable opposition in the struggle
for human betterment, there usually
is a public clamor and protest. When
employers, for profit, adopt policies
that strike at the very support of
human life, where is the public
clamor, where the high-minded pro-
test?
Wheels of industry may be stopped
for "business reasons" and the morals
Of society are not outraged. But
when the wheels of industry stop be-
because the workers have declined to
contribute their services under con-
ditions which they can not tolerate,
soceity's moral code is affronted at
once and the affront is given ready
expression by a press not too we'll
educated in the how of getting at in
dustrial truth.
The long and short of these facts
lead to thel conclusion that the world
needed production until recently be-
cause production was profitable, and
that it no longer needs production
because production is not at the mo-
mant as profitable as it was, or as it
may be a little later.
The working people declare that
the world needs production now as
much as last month, or two months
ago or a year ago, and that to inter-
fere with the forces of production is
a social crime which society will some
day find way of visiting with proper
punishment.
