Beard said qualified nurses in

"We believe that the cause of
such a lag is that young nurses

are needed by July 1, but not

Trade Unonist
|Elevates Standard

Since its inception, America
has been the land of sustenance
and opportunity to the poor, and
to those materially more FORUM
ate. Lincoln's immortal words,
Government of the people, by
the people, and for the people,"
with it's application to industry
as well as public affairs have
echoed through the years.
AS a force, Labor has weld
ed many strong girders into the
home of democracy. Through
it's participation and keen in
terest in legislation, it has gain
ed many brilliant concessions.
Labor's struggle for liberation
gained momentum with equality
at the polls, with equality in edu-
cational opportunities, with
equality in engotiating and de-
termining working conditions
with the employer.
Organized Labor with it's un-
creasing endeavors has elevated
the standard of living by it's in
creasing of wages, shortening of
hours and improvement of work
ing conditions. Being a mem
ber of this worthy cause, a
trade unionist is truly a self
respecting American citizen. He
appreciates and is cognizant of
the principal of representation
as the basis for fair dealing,
and in accord, authorizes his
Union Officials to represent him
and negotiate for the better
ment of his working contract.
Through the power of organ
lied labor, the realization of JUS
tice is achieved, and therein we
find the keystone for the strong
belief of the great liberations of
American history in Trade
Unions.
The workers must affiliate
themselves with Unions to Sc
cure a fair share of the profits,
to provide a ready market for
the finished product and to make
possible continually higher
standards of living for all.
Unionism has been Of inestim-
able value to the country, to the
workers, and to the employer,
through it's shortening of hours,
increasing of wages and its rep
resentation in legislation.
Unions demand democracy in
industry and equal opportunity
in all fields of human welfare.
Newark leader. ([Newark, Ohio]) 1917-1946, 1941-03-20
Union Typifies Strength

Said a wise old bee at the close
of day:
This colony business doesn't pay
put my honey in that old hive
That others there may eat and
And 1 do more work in a day,
by gee,
Than some of the other fellows do
in three.
toll and worry and save and
hoard,
And boa all Il I get is my room and
It's me for hive I can run my
self,
And me for the sweets of my
hard learned self"
So the old bee flew to a meadow
lone
And started a business of his own.
He gave no thought to the buz-
zing clan,
But all intent on his selfish plan
He lived the life of hermit free.
"Ah, this is great" said the wise
old bee.
But the summer waned and the
days grew drear,
And the old bee walled as he
dropped a tear
For the varmints gobbled up his
little store,
And his wax played out al his
heart was sore.
So he winged his way to the old
home band
And took his meals at the Help
ing Hand.
Alone our work is of little worth;
