Green, Johnston and Patton Join Vice President In
Pledging Unity

Washington, D. C.-Vice President
Harry S. Truman, appearing on the
AFL weekly radio program "Amer-
ica United" expressed confidence that
full employment will be attained in
this country in peace-time industry
within reasonably short time
after the war ends.
The Vice President made his pre-
diction in response to a question from
AFL President William Green on a
program devoted to preview on pros
poets for the "next four years"
Erie Johnston, President of the
United States Chamber of Commerce
and James g. Patton, President Of the
National Farmers Union, also took
part in the broadcast
Vice President Truman emphasized
the need for carrying over national
unity into the postwar period for the
solution of the nations economic prob
lens. He said:
'The only real danger to national
security, in peace as well as in war
lies in the possibility of disunity. AS
long as we Americans stay united and
preserve our cherished democratic
ideals, we need fear no future"
Mr.. Green declared the great desire
of people throughout the world today
is "peace with security" He called
for an international organization te
safeguard the peace and to settle in,
ternational disputes on the basis OF
justice, adding:
"When victory is achieved, it is oul
determination that there shall be nc
more wars of one nation against an
other. 1t is our hope-our great hope
that future wars shall be wagec
only against the common enemies Of
all mankind-against poverty, igno
rance, suffering and disease. If we
look at the problem ahead in thai
light, think it will be much easier tx
maintain in the postwar period the
high degree of national unity that ha.
made Americas war effort so sue
cessful.

Truman Predicts Jobs For All
In AFL Postwar Broadcast

Responding, Mr.. Johnston said that
expansion of industry ''will be an alb
solute necessity" if we are to main
tain maximum employment. He agreed
with my friend, Bill Green" that
1--WE must have unity of purpose and
of effort among our national groups
if we are to conquer the problems Of
the future" The business leader en-
phasized that the policies of the
Government can either encourage or
discourage new business enterprise.
He pleaded for a cooperative attitude
by the Government.
Mr.. Patton, assured by Vice Presi-
dent Truman, that the government
will protect fair prices for farmers,
called for action-"the sooner the bet
ter"-on assuring full production and
employment. He said:
"We can't afford to take chances
again. A new depression might cost
us our freedom"

security to the nations workers; it
will assure high production levels to
industry, and it will provide an ample
domestic market for the farmers"
Mr.. Johnston asked Vice President
Truman about the prospects for busi-
ness expansion in the next four years
and received this reply:
81 believe the prospects are very
good. There is a tremendous backlog
of civilian wants which should provide
ample opportunity for business ex-
pansion after hostilities cease. En-
tire new industries may develop out
of our wartime research. Private busi-
ness must be given all possible assist
ance by the government to insure
sound economic expansion for the
benefit of all"
