J. Z. W alker is commencing a

not ashamed of the Gospel of Je

God unto salvation." The apostle
John saw an angel flying in heav

W h at Is this gospel? W here does
it go? W hat does it accomplish?
W h at will it bring about? W hat
does it do for us? Does it change
our living conditions? When will
it finally end ? A ll these vital

These Things
Come Not Back
By Ruth Taylor
There is an old proverb taken
from the Persian— "Four things
come not back— the spoken word,
the sped arrow, the past life and
the neglected opportunity.”
“The spoken word.” It is not
the fine things we have said that
come back to us. 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 created
out of the wilderness a great na-

W e boast that the United States

If we mean what we say, then
we must begin immediately to put
an end to the race hatred that

we will undermine our own basic

W e have our opportunity now
to correct old mistakes- but we
must remember the four things
that come not back: Let the

of brotherly love. Let our life be

W hat happen» to this country after the fight
ing is over is of vital personal concern to every
A m e r ic a n . 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.
