I have met here see il that way,

I'VE took the average wage

we believe will give our workers
the urge for efficiency and
achievement. We are not i'm

But l believe that we can
never settle the labor problem
until we build morale. And mo-
rale comes from the feeling that
YOU want To work together. We
think we did more than eStab-
lish wage increases in our con-
tracts.

A home for the feehle-minded
