Your United States
BY FLOYD cRAMER
President Of the NotionoI Association for the
Preservation Of Free Enterprise. Inc

The greatest single achievement
of the Free Enterprise system is it's
success in adjusting the conflicting
claims OF employer and employee.
At the root of the whole idea of
Free Enterprise is the realization
that capital ard labor both need
each other, are bOrh parts of a
unified whole, and therefore must
arrive at understandings that both
can live with. Capital and labor
alike know that neither can wholly
dominate the other without at the
same time bringing ruin to all
hands.
There have been periods in our
history when Capital seemed to be
on the road toward complete DOM
inatiOn. Today there are people
who believe organized labor has
too much power But in whatever
direction the pendulum may be
swinging at any particular mo-
ment in our national life, the Op-
Grafton of the Free Enterprise sys-
tenn guarantees that corrective
measures will be taken before too
long.
And as long as American citizens
continue to rely on their own bar
gaining power, and as long as they
refrain from turning their private
affairs over to the government, our
free American way will continue
and we will continue to pass laws
to curb whatever abuses either
side may be guilty of.
= T"
1t is greatly to the credit of both
Capital and Labor in this country
that we have been able to hammer

out a continuing story of economic
progress. We have not fallen for
the Fascist line, in which Big Bus
mess dominates Government; nor
for the Socialist line, in which Big
Government dominates both en-
ployer and employed.
Under Free Enterprise, beginning
shortly after the war between the
states, American wOrkmen have
established their right to organ
ize. In many industries, strikes
have become infrequent because
both sides come to realize that
early settlement pays better than
conflict.
Under Free Enterprise, the Am
erican who works is protected in
his job, while still retaining free
dom to exchange it for another.
His earnings are high, his children
educated, his home made secure.
And under Free Enterprise, the
American employer is growing
steadily toward a better and better
understanding that the big buying
power that comes from good wages
is preferable to the temporary pro-
fit which might be derived from
low wages. And he also realizes,
more and more. that assurances of
the future of his employees, in
their sickness and old age, is good
business" for them, for him, and
for us all.
With all our shortcomings and
all our industrial strife, the Am
erican Free Enterprise system will
solve any problem free men may
have.

The feature of the evening was
the band concert directed by Paul

tie Cites Service Band of America.
He was well received by all but
particularly by the band members
themselves who have long respect
