Faith. Courage
(C0niinued From Pddr One)

(Continued From Page One)
That early statement of President
Green and the support you have given
it and the reiteration of it has been
of tremendous service to this country.
But let us make it clear that this is
not responsibility of labor alone.
Employers must fully share it. Man
agement must not take advantage of
the reluctance of labor to strike or of
the necessity of defense production.
When arrangements stop fighting
unionization and accept it as an inte-
gral part of our American system,
great strides for good relationships
will be established.
| was very much encouraged to OBJ
serve and to learn Of the relationship
developed here in your convention
city. As expressed by President Sick
of the Chamber of Commerce to you
yesterday, the change in policy adopt
ed five years ago, and the growing
cooperation on the great basic prob
lens facing labor and business alike,
has resulted in improvement in pro-
duction and in the advances that have
been made in the interests of all.
Government must also share this
responsibility. Government S h ou d
have a clearcut labor policy under
stood by all. This policy should not
include compulsory arbitration. 1t
should not take away the right to
strike. But it should include definite
steps to prevent small elements of
labor from causing stoppages con-
trary to the wishes of labor as a
whole and contrary to the wishes of
labor's best national leadership. Such
a policy clearly defined would have
strong public support 1t would help
LABOR as a whole.
We can well recognize the tragic
effect of the splendid speed, for ex-
ample, in the building up of the Rad
ford Arsenal, and the loyalty Of those
workers in completing that plant
ahead Of schedule, and yet having the
production tied up, because Of the pre-
vention Of delivery of supplies from
Allis-Chalmers, some months ago.
Government must meet that situation
so a follow through in splendid de
fense efforts is not handicapped and
is not injured by some small element
Of labor not as clear and sound in its
policy.
In my judgment, it should be ad-

cause, please remember that it is very
annoying to be treated like a school
boy. Do unto others as you would
have them do unto you. This works
both ways and courtesy, though per-
haps very old-fashioned, still pays.
We were very pleased to read about
the progress being made on the west
coast. We hope that the sanitary
manufacturers will see the advantage
of cooperation with one another and
their employees instead of using one
another for an excuse to keep wages
at pitiably low figure compared with
all other building trades.
There always has been chiselers
among employees as we'll as employers
and we are afraid there always will
be, but we believe that the majority
wish to do the fair thing, so how
about going along with the fair
minded majority instead of using the
unfair minority as an excuse for be-
ing unfair ourselves?

In the two-year period ended De-
cember 81 of this year, the machine
tool industry will have produced a
new capacity equal to the capacity OF
all machine tools in all plants of the
country on January l of last year.
In the first nine months of 194l

Defense construction this year will
total 100000 and non-defense

The production of defense goods
increased from 81 ,4OO,000,0OO in 194(

UNITED STATES NAVY
SEXES ALLOY STEEL PLANT

Philadelphia, Pa.-Undcr the pro
visions Of legislation recently APP
proved by Congress, the Navy seized
the plant, land and equipment of the
Federal Alloy Steel Corporation in
Eddystone for use in defense produc-
tion. The plant has been closed down
for several years.
This was one of the properties the
Administration had in mind when 1t
told Congress that power to seize
plants was essential to deal with those
who were trying to hold up the gov
ernment.
Two or three years ago the Eddy
. stone plant was put up at auction and
: was bought in by bondholders for
$i50,00O. The government offered
100000 for the plant, but the owners
demanded Sl,00O,O00 and refused to
take 4 penny less.

that day of peace, which we hope and

that day of peace, which we hope and
pray is not too far distant, arrives,
and hope when that day arrives for
the establishment of a system of JUS
tice between nations, based upon a
charter of rights with armed force as
a police power and not as ruthless
aggressor's club.
Your organization is peculiarly
fitted for leadership in this vital mat
ter. You have never had narrow,
provincial view. You have recognized
the brotherhood of man. You are not
imperialistic. Quite the contrary. That
is why l believe that when the next
peace conference is held, William
Green should be one of those seated
at the peace table. Obviously, the
task is tremendous. There will be
many complications. There are those
who say it cannot be done, but let us
recognize first of all the tremendous
need for it and the tragedy if it is
not done, for otherwise we shall have
these recurring wars of increasing
horror in the clash of group force be-
tween the nations of the world.
Let us also remember they said it
could not be done when this nation
first secured it's independence and
sought to set up system Of govern
ment for relationship between free
states and free men into a great ma
tional government. They said it could
not be done. They said people would
not accept it, but in that great Con-
stitutional Convention General Wash
ington and his men did not do as the
military men in other times have done
They did not say, "Now, we have won
the independence of this country, sc
we, the military men, are going tc
take CHARGE" as Hitler and others
have done. They did not say, "We
the military men, are going to say
who can come to this land, who car
own it's soil, who can develop it's bust.
ness, who can administer it's labo,
affairs" No, they said, "We fought
to establish free land," and they
proceeded to strike out in a pioneer
ing way to establish a framework o1
mechanism to follow through in those
days of peace so their ideals could be
realized. General Washington in that
great constitutional convention, wher
this confusion and defeatism crept up
made this great historic statement
eff to please the people we adopt il
this Constitutional Convention that Of
which we ourselves do not approve
how can we afterwards defend ou1
work"
He said, "Let us raise standard te
which the wise and honest can repair
The event is in the hands of God"
Then they proceeded to pioneer ane
draft that great document the Consti
tuition of these United States. They
made it possible for our forefathers
sons and daughters of every nation tt
come here and enjoy together its
rights and privileges, and together
contribute to the building of this great
nation. That spirit and follow through

misconception of the facts, certain
farm organizations are favoring wage
curbs. The AFL repeatedly has
pointed out however, that if wages
are restricted the farmers themselves
will suffer because domestic purchas-
ing power will be thereby limited and
the market for farm products re-
duced.
The negotiations of fair collective
bargaining contracts constitutes the
most practical form of wage control
union leaders declared. Under these
contracts, they said, the rate of wages
is stabilized for one or two years and
industry is able to determine in ad,
vance what production costs will be.
The AFL is campaigning for price
control legislation, minus wage re-
strictions, because initiation and high
er living costs result in the equiva,
lent of wage cuts.
