men than were out OF work four
years ago, when the third-term
candidate was running for his
second term.
The New Dealers have come to
think Of unemployment as the
normal way of things. To them,
the 9,600,000 unemployed have
become statistic. But this isn't
statistic. It's tragedy. It's a
personal tragedy for men who
once did useful work who are now
desperately looking for jobs-pro-
ductive jobs at decent standards.
It's a personal tragedy for mil
lions of young men and women
and for half million new ones
every year-who have never had
a steady job, and whose lives are
being warped by the shame of
that fact. 1t is a personal tragedy
for those of so years or more,
who have many years of good
active life ahead of them and are
desperately hoping for one more
chance to catch on, before 1t is
too late
And this is my pledge. This is
my pledge to American labor. I
will make real jobs for those who
now seek them SO desperately.
will give those elderly men the
one more chance they are looking
for. And for those young people
will make this America of ours
once more a land of opportunity.
Says New Enterprises
Lead to More Jobs.
On January 20, 1887, the cam
didate for third term said, on
entering Office for the second
time: II see one third of a ma
ton ill-fed, ill-housed, ill-clad
and ill-nourished."
Well, what has been done about
1t? What has been done except
to keep them ill-fed, ill-housed,
ill-clad and ill-nourished?
You might ask, What can
Wendell Willkie do about it?
We've stopped growing. We have
static economy. We're going
backward"
That's just what the New Deal
believes. That's just what it's
been preaching. And that's just
why it can't make any jobs.
In order to make jobs people
have to believe in the future.
. They have to see America the
way it really is, young country
hungry for more goods, more
food, more comfort. more work.
Evening star., 1940-10-04

We must have good relations be-
tween Government and industry,
good relations between Govern
ment and labor-and above all,
good relations between labor and
industry. What is the role of
labor in an expanding economy?
1t Is the role Of a partner in a
free enterprise.
The American worker expects a
chance to negotiate his terms of
employment with business. That
Is right-and I am for it. In my
administration, I shall encourage
collective bargaining as an essen
tial part Of the new American
way of life.
1t is only specifically that
collective bargaining is a means
OF adjusting differences. More
fundamentally, collective bar
gaining is way of working to-
gether-labor and capitalize ad-
vance their common, their mu-

working conditions through rep
resentatives of their own choos-
ing.
1t was long overdue.
The act was passed by the Con-
gress, as the representatives of
the people. It's passage gave no
candidate and no administration
a mortgage on the workers of
America. No man can buy the
votes of labor. No true leader of
labor would try to sell the free
ballots of his members.
Subscribes to Principles
OF Collective Bargaining.
For my part, I was for the Ma
tional Labor Relations Act before
1t was passed. was for it after
it was passed-and I am for it
now.
I subscribe, without reservation,
to the principle of collective bar
gaining by representatives of la
bor's free choice.
All men of good conscience are
in agreement with me on this
principle, and I want the support
of no others.
Complete and unequivocal &C
ceptance Of the great principle Of
collective bargaining is, then, one
of the foundation stones on
which my administration will be
based. And I will see to it that
any selfish and corrupt forces
that oppose collective bargaining
will have the hard hand of the
Government against them.
However, labor agreements have
two parties-the employer and
the workers. With increased
rights to labor go increased re-
sponsibilities. There must be
genuine and persistent effort to
reach agreements on the basis Of
facts, not force. And once
reached, those agreements must
be kept by both parties.
In such agreements, entered
into by free men on the basis of
facts and in good faith. let us
find the foundation for the great
America we want to build-the
new America-and America big
enough for all of us.
Asserts Administration
Has Let Labor Down.
Now I will tell you why I think
the present administration has
let labor down. 1t has let labor
down because it has failed to
make jobs.
1t is honest and proper to say
here that when the New Deal
first took Office we all had great
hopes for it. I, for one, had those
hopes, and I voted for those
hopes.
But all our hopes have been
dashed on the rock of unemploy-
ment. In seven years the New
Deal has been unable to lick the
problem Of Jobs. Today there are
9,600,000 persons out Of work.
And that's quarter million more

PITTSBURGH, Oct. 4.-Fol-
lo,Ding is the prepared tert OF a
speech by Wendell L. Willkie,
Republican presidential candi-
date, at Forbes Field last night:
The city of Pittsburgh stands
for American enterprise. Courage
and hard work have built this
city and have manufactured here
the sinews of peace and war. I
know of no more fitting place for
a man to stand up and talk
frankly and specifically-about
American labor.
You workers of America-or-
ganized and unorganized-skilled
and unskilled-are entitled to
know in fortnight language ex-
actly where I Standard I want
you to know.
want to begin with Abraham
Lincoln. He is my favorite char
acter in American history-the
gentle. merciful Lincoln - who
fought until he died to preserve
the basic concepts of American
life.
Abraham Lincoln said:
Labor is prior to and inde-
pendent of capital. Capital is
only the fruit of labor, could
never have existed If labor had
not first existed. Labor is the
superior of capital and deserves
much higher consideration"
I stand with Abraham Lincoln.
have earned my bread by the
sweat of my brow. I know, as
well as any man in America, the
strong bond that unites those who
labor.
Democratic System Based
On Bill Of Rights Favored.
But this bond should not lead
to war upon business, or upon
property. Because, as Lincoln
also said:
Property is the fruit of labor:
property is desirable; is positive
good in the world "'' let not him
who is houseless pull down the
house Of another, but let him
work diligently and build one for
himself. thus by example assur-
ing that his own will be safe when
built"
stand for a democratic society
based on the Bill of Rights and a
system of private property-with
full rights to labor.
Let no man. and no party, claim
sole credit for the National Labor
Relations Act. 1t has been in the
making for many years. Men like
the great Samuel Gompers gave
their lives to its principles. This
act is the result of a century of
bloody strugglss-of the sweat
and the agony Of countless un-
named workers.
1t was, and it is, statutory rec
ognition of a simple fact-the
right Of men to join together-to
bargain collectively for better
hours, better wages and better

have said that 1t is the duty
of the Government to protect
labor and the right to bargain
collectively. But it does labor no
good to have the right Of collec-
tive bargaining about a job that
1t doesn't have. You and I know
that you can't bargain collec-
lively about nothing.
But the administration OF the
act is another thing. Its admin
istration has been condemned by
employer and labor alike. The
maladministration OF this act has
been-and it is-one Of the most
shocking tragedies in the history
of American industrial relations.
(See WILLKIE TEXT, Page AID
Evening star., 1940-10-04

That's what America Is. That's
your America and my America.
But in order to have that kind
OF America, conditions must be
such that men are eager to get
into business and start new en-
terpriSes. That means more jobs.
More jobs mean more buying
power and more consumption.
More consumption means more
production-and again more jobs.
In Seattle on September % I
went into the question of how to
make jobs for the people of
America, and talked about 1t at
some length.
Production, increased produc-
tion, by business, big and little,
makes Jobs.
The New Deal has discouraged
business-little business far more
than big business-until today we
are short-here in America
about 100000 new enterprises.
am in favor of getting those
100000 new enterprises started
and will get them started.
Favors Encouraging
Business as Jobs Boom.
I am in favor Of encouraging
businessmen because it is busi-
ness-not because of profits as
such, but because I know that
such encouragement will put
100000 men back to work.
I am for proper regulation of
business, particularly big busi-
ness, but I am for favoring those
regulations as simple as possible,
as efficient as possible. Labor
should be for that-and I think
1t is.
Next to the objective of max
ing our defenses strong-a major
vital problem that this admins
tration has failed-and is still
failing to solve-the biggest
single American objective is to re-
establish our expanding life, our
dynamic life.
To start that new expansion
we need new enterprises. But
what else do we need?
Why, we need good relations.

FRIDAY, MARCH Is, 1910.
TOWARD LOWER LIVING
STANDARDS

Many other nations are gradually
being reduced to the poverty level of
living, under the stress of war condi-
tions and under the economic attacks
of such commercial offensives as that
of the cheap labor products of Japan.
We shall do we'll to see that certain
sections of our own workers are not
gradually slid down the cellar door of
the lower living standards, through
the operations of the social security
system.
To begin with, there is the approach
which deprives the worker of any in
centive to leave his employment for
the purpose of accepting the "dole"
of the unemployment or injury COM
pensation benefits. 1t is assumed that
every worker is naturally inclined to
soldier" if he gets chance. And so
he is compelled to have waiting pc
riod" before he can have any benefits
from these funds.
The Butler County press. [volume] (Hamilton, Ohio) 1900-1946, 1940-03-15

Then, the rate of such compensation
is always fraction of his regular
rate of pay So that in any case, the
purchasing power, and with it the level
of living of these unfortunate ones
among the workers is whitfield down.
There be those who say, that these
are the inefficient, the less fit, the least
capable of the workers, and that, with
out bringing into question any idea of
blame in the ethical sense, these people
are simply being eliminated from the
economic system because they are the
least fit. They don't survive.
And so, by reason of our system of
economic sieves, they are being more
or less forcefully, though gradually,
sifted out of the ranks of the living;
and the penalties which they draw
are in the form of deficient supplies
of the necessities of life.
People who don't get enough to eat
do not live as long as those who do
get enough. And if their food is of
lower quality, that has the same eff
feet. 1t is probably not intentional.
But it works, anyway.

Democracy In Action

The American Federation of Labor
not only breaches democracy but prac-
tices it. The underlying principle
in it's organizational structure is vol
untarism. In other words, the Amer
lean Federation of Labor is volun-
tary association of free and independ-
ent unions. The federation has no
power of compulsion. It's laws and
policies are adopted by majority vote
of delegates from all affiliated unions
at annual conventions. They become
effective solely through the consent of
the governed, whose representatives
make the laws. That is democracy
in action George Meany, secretary
treasurer, American Federation Of
Labor.

COMMENT ON WORLD EVENTS

SIN the Protectorate, the Czech
workers are suffering the same fate
as the others, in the national and cul-
tural fields. The attempt is being
made to germanize them through the
authorities and the schools, and this
attempt even extends to the economic
and social spheres.
"In many places, the workers are
driven out from the better-paid posi-
tions, and replaced by Nazis. Czech
workers are transported to Germany,
where they have to perform the most
strenuous work, while their places are
taken by German supporters of their
regime.
Czech local government authori-
ties, which were at high level, have
been deprived of all their rights, and
the universities are suffering persecu-
ton. The universities in which the
children of Czech workers studied
have been closed down, and the stu
dents are constantly harried, many
having been thrown intoe prison or
concentration camps.
"This national and cultural oppres-
sion applies to all sections of the
Czech people, but it affects the work
ers in particular.
"The Czech workers have also lost
their political rights. All the we'll
known political leaders of the Czech
workers are today in concentration
camps or prison, or have been forced
to flee. Some have even been horribly
done to death.
''The trade unions have been de-
pcived of their rights. There are no
longer negotiations with the workers
about wage questions. The Wages
and Labor Department of the Nazi
Protectorate Office decides all such
matters. Commissioners have been
appointed to the Czech co-operatives
The leader of the Czech Workers
Sports League is in prison"

WAGNER HITS PREDICTIONS

New York City.-Speaking at the
celebration of the twenty-ffth ami
versary of the New York Workmen's
Compensation Act, Senator Robert F.
Wagner recalled the difficulties of the
battle for enactment of the law and
the dire predictions made by oppo-
nents as to the detrimental effects the
legislation would entail II am salts
fled in my own mind" he said, "that
quarter of century hence the dire
predictions being made about some
of our more recent labor legislation
will prove as empty and as groundless
as these earlier predictions about
workmen's compensation appear to US
now"

other fundamental American institu-
tions are confronted with both open
and underground attacks on their basic
principles. This perpetual crisis re-
quires labor papers to act as fearless

struction of the masses and always

interests who are continually attack
ing the cause of the people.-Frank

What's happening to the workers
of Czechoslovakia, under Nazi rule :?
Plenty, the International Federation
of Trade Unions reports.
SIN Germany" the /. F. I. U. says,
"all the workers live under constant
pressure and suffer the most unprece-
dented violation of the most elemen-
tary rights of man. In the case of
the Czech workers, there is also the
national oppression in addition"
The l. F. T. U. goes on to give the
following illuminating account of the
steady Nazi drive against Czech ma
tional life, both in the Sudeten from
tier areas and in the protectorate of
Bohemia, part of the former Czecho-
slovakian republic:
Despite Hitler's assurance that he
did not want single Czech, he never
theless, Immediately after the Munich
agreement, annexed more than l.
100000 Czechs in the frontier dis
tricts. The overwhelming majority
of the population in this district is
composed of workers, especially tex
tile, glass, land and timber workers.
These Czech workers, especially those
in the Reichenberg district, were, from
the trade union, cultural and political
points of view, among the most pro-
gressive workers in the whole of for
mer Austria Hungary.
Disregarding his promises, Hitler
has robbed these Czech workers of
all their political and national rights
the |. F. I. U. says, adding:
Czech schools and cultural institu-
tions have been closed down, and
teachers and officials thrown into con
centration camps, where they are ter
ribly treated and even killed The
trade unions and cooperative organ
izations have been dissolved and then
funds confiscated. The 'germaniza,
ton of the Czechs in this area is be-
ing ruthlessly carried out.
