Editorial

tn HE Treasury Building typifes the wealth of the
nation, as represented by its money. The
dollar in your pocket-be it paper, gold,
silver or copper-originated and passed through this
building through of its plants branches. 1t
is the greatest money creating institution in the
world In back Of every dollar is the fiat of the great
est government in the world
You are partner in this institution-f you labor
with Drawn brain and produce something tangible,
be it sermon song, diamond drill, or an aero
plane. You derive all the benefits of partnership.
The work of the world must be done before
dividends are paid Are you doing your share' AS
Mr.. Brisbane put it in his TO-DAY column-which
appears every day in The Washington Times
"The man who now holds a job that he likes
needs will find-it worth while to do enough to
keep that job
This industrial page is typical of the industry in
the District of Columbia Few persons in Washing
ton are aware that within the Districts boundaries are
600 factories, employing $4,000 persons and using
S85ooo,oO of capital.
Those figures mean nothing unless an honest
days work is given for an honest days wage. The
age of the shirk is passing. Labor in America is in
herently honest, yet there is labor in America that
"pays little it for much as it can get in
CASH" Fortunately the cheater who gets something
for nothing is soon uncovered, and by none other
sooner than by his felow-worknen.
