the safest cities in the world, got
a setback last month.
Nine persons, seven of them
pedestrians, died in traffic acci-

LISTEN AMERICANS!
. by George S Benson
President Of Haryiins College

The 18th Harding College Freedom Forum held on our

improve abormanagement relations in America Among the
100 conferees from % IS from the ranks of
labor Other groups represented included business the clergy
education the American Legion and civic clubs There
five women cOn1erees.
The give-and-take Forum discussions the problems
Of abOr-anagement relations based the unanimous
accepted fact that every American regardless OF his
cupation, economic status politics, has stake in making
the private enterprise system work better and produce more
goods and services The wealth the system produces
the better will be the living standard Of everyone.
OF unusual interest at the Forum the facts showing
that per of the national income goes to employees
per professional and unincorporated business
farmers per to landlords cent to
stockholders per bond holders and other lenders.
Another per is retained by business for expansion
and that's what makes jobs The final per cent in the
statistics represents the portion of the national income which
corporations altogether pay in taxes
the 30 year period 1920949, corporations paid out
dividends 500 billion and paid out in taxes to the
SLY billion OF interest the statistics, based
showing that 70 out of every 81 of interest dividends
and payments to individuals people with less than
$100-week income In other words the property and the
wealth of America distributed widely through the whole
population.
1t is desirable that the company work for be
full and is desirable that preserve the
cessfu economic system under which industry has made
such strides and living standard has become the
envy of the world Good empoyeeempoyer relationship is
keystone in this dual objective.

Through Foreign Eyes

A while ago II Austrian coal
miners visited this country under
the Mutual Security Program. A
Pennsylvania newspaper devoted
page of pictures and text to
describing their amazement at the
unbelievable living standards en-
joyed by the American miners.
The Austrians couldn't believe
at first that all the cars they saw
parked near the pits belonged to
the miners. They We're astounded
at the comforts and Injuries,
ranging from refrigerators to TV
sets, they saw in miners homes.
They were amazed to find that
all you had to do to get hot water
in one of these homes was to turn
a faucet.
When an Interpreter told them
that the average American miner
earned over SIS a day the Austri-
and assumed he had made a mis-
take-that the $18 was for a full
weeks work. They were dazzled
by the welfare and retirement
benefits our miners receive. And
when the president of the coal
company they were visiting passed
by and said hello to a group of
miners they thought they'd seen
the miracle of democracy. 1t
seemed even more miraculous
when the president said, "Of
course I speak to them. They're
my friends. I play cards with
them" It's still pretty much the
rule in Europe that bosses are
bosses and workers are workers
and never the twain shall meet.
The Austrians saw something
that too many Americans overlook.
Under free enterprise-the much
revilcd capitalist system--labor
has made the greatest gains in
all history
