AMERICANS MOST
PRODUCTIVE RACE
Labor Department Solicitor
Compares Record and Pros
perity of World.

Americans today are the most pro
ductive people of any country or of
any age in the world, enjoying high
standards of living and employing to
great adVa ntage tn the laborer and to
the country as whole machinery to
an unprecedented degree. Judge Theo
dore G. Risley. solicitor of the De-
partment of Labor, declared today at
opening forum meeting of the Man
agement week ohservances here at a
luncheon session at the City Club.
The daily series of addresses, held
<under the auspices of the City Club in
cooperation with other local civic and
trade organizations, will be continued
throughout the week.
Labor i'm Prosperity.
Taking as his topic "Labor's Part
in the Maintaining of Prosperity,
Judge Risley commented in opening
his address that various reasons as
signed for the present prosperity of
the United States are the general en-
ployment of labor at high wages. the
increased efficiency of labor and man
agement. increased productivity, effec-
tive financial cooperation and the
automobile industry.
THE world realizes more than ever
that labor is the creator of all wealth. p"
he declared. "In the depths of the
mine, in the gold of the harvest, by the
throbbing engines. the flaming fur
ndccs. the whirrinG~ spindles and on
the foam crested seas labor creates
and produces the products of neces-
sity. comfort and beauty that are es-
sential to feed. clothe. support and
better mankind"
1.-The United States is enjoying re-.
marIable industrial and economic
prosperity while other nations are
struggling to meet the problems of
unemployment and economic depres.
sion said the speaker. One of the
surprising achievements of modern in
dustrial history has been the rapid
process by which this country has re-
covered from it's disturbed and de-
ranged social. Industrial and economic
conditions following the World War
he said.
Millions Are Re-emplOyed.
'"rhe employment of several mil
lions of unemployed labOrers and the
maintaining of a wage scale practical
ly equal to, and in many instances
greater than, that of the war scale is
regarded by other countries as little
less than a political phenomenon" the
speaker continued.
In discussing the vast number of
legislative enactments and proposals
affecting labor of this country Judge
Risley declared that the objects of
such labor legislation should be the
safeguarding of the rights and the in
terests of the laborer, the conserving
of his health, and to afford him oppor-
tunities which enable him to live in
comfort and responsibility, properly to
educate and rear his family and to en-
able him by thrift and industry to lay
by enough to care for his family and
to shake off the haunting fear of pov.
