Our Brothers Keeper
(Los Angeles Times)

This period through which the
world is struggling is more than an
economic crisis. It involves more
than study Of strategic plans to-
ambuscade the dollars which fled.
Humanity itself is on trial. The
civilization which we have evolved Isl
undergoing the supreme test.
If there is such q thing as brother
hood among men, now Is the time to|
show it.
Drunk with wealth, we have strayed!
long way from the fundamental and
eternal truth. We have been living
in house stuck upon golden stills.
And it has crashed.
In our agony and suffering we have
discovered that Jesus Christ meant
what he said. The Golden fsule was
not a pleasant homily intended for
reward d-of-merit cards with silk
fringe on the edges and diamond dust
shining on the snow scenes. It was
a simple statement of the eternal
law, the same law that keeps the
stars In the skies and the world turn
ing on its axis.
We speak Of breaking the law and
commandments. You can break
them; but they break you. Love one
another" was more than an admoni-
tion to light the path Of virtue. It
was the statement of an eternal prin-
ciple upon which all law, all philoso-
ply, all business. all ethics. al civil
zation rests. Like all the doctrines
left by the Christ, this was the SUBJ
Unity Of common sense-the finality
Of practicality-the only sure foun-
dation upon which civilization can
rest.
During these money -glutted ye1rs
we have tried each to go our own
way alone. Years Of greed and money
lust have ended with this terrible les
son: That wealth evaporates and
leaves men stark and with naked
hearts.
It Is for us to see that this terrible
rebuke has not been in vain; for US
to see that we rebuild the fallen
structure on the rock Of brotherhood.
This winter will be q period that
calls for all men to have fortitude,
strength and sympathy. It Is, for
once, clear to the dullest mind that
we can only help ourselves by help
ing others.
Out Of this period of readjustment
we can regain our souls. It can be q
better world because Of this period
Of hunger and sorrow: a stronger
America and sounder civilization II
it brings to us q realization we are
given the privilege Of being our
brothers keeper.
The remedy for our financial crisis
lies not in laws, federal commissions.
in panacea or financial errors.
The sound and practical answer
was told two thousand years ago In
sermon spoken on mountain In
Palestine.

Thus the social customs and the

All sorts of troubles can happen to

conditions are sprains, strains, frac-
lures, dislocations, excessive sweat

ringworm. bunions, hammer toes,
painful heels, ingrown toenails,
cracked toes, blisters, bruises and
disturbances of the circulation. Any
one of these conditions may eventu-

One need only recall the death of
the son Of a former president who,
while playing tennis, developed a
blister on his heel from rubbing by
his tennis shoe. Within short time
the blister became infected and gen.
eral septicemia developed, and death
followed.
In q recent consideration of the

The most important shoe measure

Let George Do It

The aims expressed by the Ameri-
can Federation of Labor at its recent
convention in Vancouver will win the
support of every American citizen.
They are the same aims for which
the founders Of the nation fought and
for which every subsequent genera
ton has striven as best it could.
The means suggested to attain
those ends, however, will provoke ar
gument, just as any major economic
program always has provoked dis
cord and discussion!
The nine points listed in the big
labor organizations program were:
Maintain wages.
2-Shorten work hours.
3-Assure employment to minimum
work forces.
Each employer to take on addi-
tional workers.
5-Create work through public
building.
estrengthen employment agen-
cieS.
Keep young persons in school to
prevent their taking jobs from men
and women.
8-Preference for workers with de-
pendents.
9-Financial relief from public and
private funds.
Even those friendly to labor. how
ever, will see q fundamental defect
in the entire scheme. It is the SIM
pie fact that no provision has been
made for definitely helping towart.
the objectives sought. There is no
assumption by labor of the burden
for bringing the desired reforms
about. The skin, if any, comes off
the other fellows back.
The program takes no account OF
the difficulties which are being faced
by employers. It gives no answers
to the questions which every en-
ployer has right to ask: '"How can
I take on more men when those !
have are not always busy: how Cal,
I assure employment TO my workers
when I cannot be sure Of what the
future will bring? How can shorten
work hours when to do so will boost
production costs to a point where ]
cannot meet competition?
The other points are proper sub
jects for political action or social ed
ucation. With most Of them few
persons will have any quarrel.
But labor's chief relationship Is to
the men and industries which provide
the jobs. It is by cooperation with
these forces that labor can do the
most to relieve present conditions and
to aid in the adjustment Of the ma
tional economy.
The fact that the convention ig-
nored this vital point is somewhat
discouraging. It smacks too much
of the spirit of "let George do it."
