a Voice From the Past

velopment of the merchant marine
on the broadest and most substantial
basis possible, advocating that "the
personnel of the merchant marine be
trained to the duties ef-both peace
and wartime service, and urging
that as far as practicable all the
trade of this country should be car
ried in ships flying the American flag
and manned by American citizens"
Prophetically, the Paris conven-
ton of the American Legion in 1927
resolved
I'VE feel that the present mer.
chant marine is inadequate, thus
constituting a great handicap to
American industry and agriculture
-. and such inadequacy constitutes
great menace in the event of ma
tional emergency.
eve therefore ADVOCATE proper
recognition and support of our goU-
eminent of the American merchant
marine and enactment of legislation
that WiH provide merchant marine
of proper strength to serUe the re-
quirements of our industry and agri-
culture and at the same time be an
auxiliary to our naUy as guarantee
of peace"
THIS was the unfailing theme of
L the American Legion throughout
its history.
Not single national convention
of the Legion failed to sound warn
ing to the American nation regarding
its neglect of maritime industry.
Such voice from the past has
it's vindication and reward now in the
magnificent maritime establishments
the United States has created under
the impetus of war.
It is proper and gratifying to
have the name of such an organiZa-
ton honored by these great establish
ments of today.
But the vital necessity of the ma
ton is to- avoid being liStless to that
same voice in the future, to resolve
against letting our great maritime
establishments fall into decay again.
The American people may rely
upon the American Legion to always
raise its voice in that great cause.

THE maritime industries of the
i United States paid an impressive
and well deserved tribute to the
American Legion at the Permanente
shipyards in Richmond, CAL, when
sleek new cargo vessel of the victory
type was launched, bearing the name,5
IS. S. Legion Victory"
No other American organization
better merits having its name in
scribed on the prov of a vessel
representing the monumental
achievements of the American mari
time industries in this war.
No other American organization
has advocated the development of
strong and adequate American mer-
chant marine so continuously and
persistently.
ONCE it's inception more than
- quarter of century ago, the voice
of the American Legion has always
been raised in behalf of the American
merchant marine, although it was
raised futilely for many discouraging
years.
The first announcements by the
Legion on this subject must now be
regarded as A VOICE FROM THE
PAST, urging avoidance of our great
and tragic mistakes of the past.
At the New Orleans convention in
1922, the American Legion directed
national attention to "the affairs of
the American merchant marine and
the interests of American seamen, F"
and resolved that "it is necessary to
have an efficient merchant marine =.
to train our regular naval per-
sonnet"
In 1923, at the San FRANCISCO con-
vention, the Legion expressed de-
sire "to see at least so per cent of
the trade of this country carried in
American ships, flying the American
flag and manned by American officers
and men," and recommended "that
all practical steps be taken to build
up the American merchant marine to
a size commensurate with the size of
the navy and proportionate to the
size and wealth of this country"

went on record "as favoring the de

For All Who Labor
By BENJAMIN DECASSERE

laboring man or woman.
1t is labor that has built America.
All labor is form Of capital just as all capital
is form of labor.
There should be no war between the two
1t is time also that we had done with such un-
democratic distinctions as 'laboring classes" Gin
dustrial classes" and the like.
In our democracy, which is so completely in
terlocking and interviewer with our daily work
from president to butcher boy - there should
henceforth be no such divisions.
Ninety per cent of all our captains of indus
try" from the first Vanderbilt and Astor to Henry
Ford were once poor.
They rose to the top by labor.
THERE has been despicable political tendency
i in the last decade to widen the division be-
tween organized labor" and the employing
classes.
Nothing could be more dangerous to our
future
Today is good day for ALL Americans who
Use their brains hands, or both, to get together
It is TEAMWORK that built the country.
1t is TEAMWORK that has won all our wars.
The American "workingman" so-called, has
made unparalleled strides in earning power and in
standards of living in the last $50 years because he
has not labelled himself as something apart
We have had no peasants" no "proletarlat
in the u. S. A.
Our wage-eaTneFs have had to combat great
injusticeS it is true, in their way upward.
DUT they have overcome all obstacles because
ID they have always been conscious that they
were an integral part of an organized democracy
that had no born privileged class, -
The Capitalists" so-called, must also recog-
nize that they, too are integral part of an or
ganized democracy in which the worker is their
industrial brother.
Now we are beginning to see that it PAYS to
cooperate.
The sanest elements in the ranks Of organized
labor and the industrial world now seek arbitra-
ton as the method of settling all difficulties.
The time will come, we hope, when strikes will
be looked on archaic.
ON THIS Labor Day there are matters to which
~ both employers and employees should give
special thought They are:
Nothing is more dangerous to our do
nestle future than organized labor and industrial
lists in politics.
2-The enemy today of both employer and
employee in this country is the Communist, masked
or in the open.
3-The political demagogue should be cast
out of the ranks Of all unions and Of all workers,
high hat, white collar or no collar
This Labor Day can be made historic in the
annals of American social history by pact be-
tween all classes of workers for the common de-
velopment of titanic postwar America.
Capital and "abor" as two different things
should henceforth be meaningless terms
Capital" and labor" should be interchange
able terms for all labor is capital in the act of
creation and all capital is the flower of labor.
let us heal the breaches of the past, for moth
ing feeds the revolutionary fires of Americas

IndiUidnaIs' Tasks
Cited bv Truman

The individual responsibility Of
American citizefis in the task Of
winning the war and preserving the
peace was stressed by Senator Tru-
man, Democrat, of Missouri, yester-
day at the Democratic Club.
At the clubs luncheon meeting,
the Senator said there is q tendency
among certain groups to evade per-
sonal responsibility with the plea
that today's problems are too big for
individuals and should be handled
by Washington.
This abdication from RESPONSE
bility, though natural under pres
sure OF war conditions, can only
lead to confusion and breakdown"
he said. I'VE can see the result in
Europe. The heart Of the democratic
process is the voluntary initiative Of
the individual citizen and his gov
ernment. When communities grip
their responsibilities and resolutely
face their problems at the source,
there comes new self respect and
an ability to participate to the full
IN the destiny Of the world" he con-
tinued.
The speaker advised that, Is we
work toward victory, we must plan
for postwar stability.
TO win a military victory alone
would be futile unless we lay 4
foundation in our postwar world that
Will secure for all men everywhere
their basic human rights" he
asserted. History has bestowed on
us a solemn responsibility. We shall
and we must be mighty force at
the peace conference. We failed
before to give a genuine peace, we
cannot fail this time"

duced the Senator. The club presi-
dent. Mrs. Francis Sayre, presided
