of 1943 before we can accumulate
resources for war equal to those Of
the Axis powers.
Therefore, unless there is a de-
cided change for the better, or a
our enemies, we will be short of
productive power sufficient to ;u-
sure victory until the fall of 1913.
We must:
1. Lengthen the hours of labor
wherever operating conditions
make it possible
2. Increase our individual CT
forts TO produce.
8. Abolish all restrictions on
production not necessary to the
protection of health and eff
cheney.
4. Stop all strikes and freeze,
for the duration of the war, the
controversy of the closed or open
shop and Of conflicting jurisdic-
lions of unions.
5. Require mediation of all la
Dor disputes regarding hours,
wages and working conditions
which cannot settled between
the parties in interest.
6. Draw upon the services Of
all able-bodied men and women
to perform whatever duties are
suited tc their capacities as fast
as materials and tools can be
provided for them.
We will have struck another
blow for freedom if we cut down
Our demand for essential goods
and services. We can most effec-
lively measure our efforts in this
direction by investing the savings
thus gained in government bonds
and stamps. II we fail to save vol
unfairly it becomes the more impera-
tive to draw off this power and
spend by taxation. 1t is far better
to save and invest against rainy
days, which will come after the war,
than to spend carelessly now. Every
dollar wasted is an aid TO Hitler.
Governmental economy is equal in
Importance to individual savings in
aids to win the war. There is no
more dangerous falllacy than the
one that government dollars don't
count. Every government dollar
wasted means two dollars in taxes,
interest and expenses before the
origial dollar is paid off. Every dol
lar saved by the government means
another dollar released to put into
arms. 1t has been variously estima-
ted by experts on the budget that
between one and one-half to two
billions of dollars a year can be
saved in current non-War expendi-
lures and from three to four billions
on our war munitions if they could
be more carefully purchased, plan
ned and produced. The budget just
proposed provides for economies of
less than one-half billion in non
defense expenses.
We are seeking, each in our own
way, to march toward victory. 1t is
the great opportunity of free DEM
ocracy that today warfare calls not
only upon the men who fire the
guns, but upon every man and wo-
man behind the lines. II our part
is the more humble one of saving
instead of fight ing, let us go to it
with a will. There is something vital
to winning the war which each one
of us can do, and do III his own
way. This is democracy using all OF
its sineWS of war.

turn out the utmost In munitions
and food; maintain our armies and
our supporting industries and win
the war in the shortest possible
time? ach one of these purposes
can be attained only by what our
labor win produce.
We have stated before the in
fluences which reduce, and in eX-
IRENE cases may destroy, the pur-
chasing power of labor and money.
Tie most obvious Of these, the one
of first Importance is to produce
more and more goods. The direct
way to meet the rising demand,
which is far in excess of the cur
rent rate Of supply, is to produce
more useful goods and thus to re-
duce the shortages created by the
production for war. That Is only
the A. B. G. of a policy to control
the relation between supply and
demand.
We are going TO win the war,
that is settled. But how can we use
our sinews and muscles to the ut
most to reduce to minimum the
burden upon our children and chill
drens children for many genera
lions y come?
The United States has the great
est potter tial resources Of any ma
ton in the world in the combina-
ton of raw materials, tools, skilled
manpower, and the cooperative abil-
ity to direct them. A war is won
today not with guns alone but with
men, machines and organizations
behind the lines. Notwithstanding
our great potential capacity, we
have long way to go to accumu-
late resources for war equal to
those Which the Axis powers have
pied up in the last light years.
They began in 1888. We started in
1910 They have been working on
a ten TO twelve hour day, six 10
seven days a week. We are still on
an average eight hour day, five to
six days a week. They have con-
scripted every physically able man,
irrespective of age and dependents
and many of their women. We still
have some two million unemployed
men on government doles Of one
kind or another, and we have done
little to enlist the services Of Wo-
men. Tt.ey have abolished all re-
str.ctions on rates of production,
while we have been betraying our
men at the front by sitting down
and stopping production TO engage
in wholly unnecessary strikes. They
have reorganized their industries to
eliminate the production Of all nom
essentials, while We are just begin
ming to limit the alloting of raw
materials to non-essential indus
tries
The statisticians of the o. P. M.
have figured that it will take the
Allies until June, 1912 at their pres
ent rate of production to catch up
with that of the Axis powers; that,
because of their long head start,
it will take until the fall of Fall
