W hat haunts us is the careless word, the criti cal speech, the unconscious cruel ty. The times we misunderstood or misinterpreted our neighbor's action, the hasty generalisation, the rumor repeated as though it were fact, the unkind gossip, are what we remember. If w e are sin cere in our endeavors to do right, these things plague us. These are the words that hurt us as deeply as those against whom we talked. "The sped arrow ." This is the barb of unkindness that went straight to the heart of our neigh bor, the wise-crack that slung, the indifference to our brother's needs, the cold withdrawal from the common life. The sharp trick, the self-interest we displayed, the spurning of the outstretched hand are among the things that tor ment us. "The past life." Not only do we recall those things we did in dividually but our national mis takes, fo r which we, as citizens, are responsible. W e neglected the developing of brotherly relations between Am ricans of good faith. W e assumed an isolationist atti tude toward the problems of the world. W e allowed the sores of other nations to fester and flare up until the plague threatened us with its virus of hatred. " T h e neglected opportunity." Here again we suffer from both our individual and national er rors— the friendships we did not make, the help to the downtrod den we did not give, the respon sibility we shirked.

W e founded a democracy— but how have we lived up to it? W e boast that the United States has the ideal living plan for all. If we mean what we say, then we must begin immediately to put an end to the race hatred that has been permitted to creep in, or we will undermine our own basic principle and g o back hundreds of years to the bigotry o f old that destroyed nations. W e have our opportunity now to correct old mistakes- but we must remember the four things that come not back: Let the words we speak be words of fa ir ness and friendship. Let the a r rows we send forth carry venges of brotherly love. Let our life be as near to what we want our fu ture to be. as we can make it— and let us not neglect any oppor tunity to prove the worth of our I _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _____ faith.

How vital depends upon the extent to which we value our present way of life, our free institutions, and our existing form of gov ernment. These are all the prize at stake, and if they mean anything to us we must prepare now for after this war and be unwilling to see the idea of postwar planning made a political football, a grindstone for the axes of special interest groups, or a bone of contention between those who want to go back to the past and those who want to blueprint the “perfect world. If, when the fighting is over, we have ex soldiers selling apples on the street, or masses of workers idle, or people starving in onp part of the country while food surpluses rot in others, we shall have lost this war. It w ill be too late to “plan”. Postwar planning must be faced realistic ally. W e must prepare now against unemploy ment during the reconversion period, and for full and continuing employment under a peace time economy. The first goal of postwar plan ning should be a foundation for better living through provision for enough jobs and lasting jobs. The basis of America’s postwar economy should be private enterprise, with private busi ness and industry and agriculture continuing to operate as the people’s primary means for pro viding jobs and producing goods and services; with government performing its constitutional function of establishing the rules of the game, acting as impartial referee, and effecting fiscal policies through taxation and expenditure pro grams such as private works that w ill mesh with private undertakings. But the private enterprise system must ad just itself to a changing world. Before there can be blueprints there must be unity of purpose among all groups, with a realization that our group interests are identical. There must be fullest cooperation and team work based on mutual trust on the part of business, labor, agri culture, and government. This trust can’t mere ly be assumed, it must be honestly earned through practice in the first place and there after preserved by continuous good faith, per formance and collaboration. If our private enterprise system is to go forward there must be a new sense of responsibility for the welfare of all the people. Business must recognize its obligation to provide jobs and income security. Labor must promise a full day’s work and make it possible for those seeking employment to have it. Both must recognize their dependence on agriculture as producer and consumer. Agri culture in turn must recognize that it is depend ent upon business and labor and that there can not be profitable markets for its products unless the rest of the nation prospers and has the means to buy. None of America’s economic groups is self- sufficient. Each is dependent upon the other; the terms business and labor and agriculture lose their capital letters and become “ We, the People” when we realize that all are consumers — each others consumers, and there cannot be full and continuous employment unless more people have the means to buy more of the pro duce of our collective brains and hands and invested savings. It is necessary that there must be adequate incentive to encourage risk and responsibility. Otherwise dollars saved will not be dollars dared for backing new responsibilities for new jobs, opened by new ideas, nor will the new ideas themselves be forthcoming. W e must recognize the need for a more bal anced economy and the importance of utilizing our natural resources and other assets to the end that full time productive wc •dll be avail able to all our citizens seeking t doyment. W e must preserve the sovereignty of the State of Oregon at all costs; restore to our com munities and local governments confidence, initiative and self-reliance, and cease looking to the federal government for those things that we can and must do for ourselves. If this crisis is to be successfully met indus try , agriculture ad labor must take the offensive. The freedom to produce is the only hope of a postwar world. W e can surrender to the socially minded groups who have nothing to offer ex cept ultimate bankruptcy, or we can win the greatest battle of history by assuring for all Americans the opportunity to work and, in so doing, extending that opportunity into the far corners of the earth. W e must prepare the way for a decent standard of living and self-respect for our people or surrender to •’ compulsions and directions of the dictator sta.e. Those of us who are employers have a defi nite all-important responsibility. W e have the obligation of providing jobs— productive work, a decent standard of living. Let’s dedicate our selves to that purpose. Let’s recreate in our selves the faith we once had— faith in ourselves, in our community and in our country. Let’s risk all that we may gain all. A. S.
