In nearly rvery paper one picks
up there is hardly a g-««»d word to
be found for th« man who works
and earns his bread in the sweat of
his face. Why is it there are Do
friends for them in the pa|>era of
this “land of the free and the home
of the brave?"
If it were not for the man or the
woman who toil there would be no
wealth, for all wealth is *«aaed upon
the production of the workers
If
it were not for th«— workers there
would be no stores, no farmers, no
factories, no market for the prod­
ucts of the farm, norailroads.no
automobiles, no airplane«, no farm­
ing tools tn fact, nothing of use or
, convenience that we are accustomed
to. for I he man with plenty of raw
tai neither spins nor does he toil,
and if he did, there are ao few of
them that the dent they would make
on the productive ho ison could not
i»e noticed.
In the railroad situation, in the
coal mines, and in other marts of
trade, there are and have hern
strikes
Why the strikes? Bemuse
of reductions in asg« -allowing only
a living and barely (hat. because of
hardships and danger» that arc nec­
essary to be relieved, because of
shop conditions ¿hat are a menace
to life and health, and In-cause of
many other things that enter into
The daily press and most weeklies
are engaged in fighting the toilers,
lalmrvr and farmer, from whom
they really get their subscriptions,
and if they did not get these sut>-
acriptions they would not get the
advertising- and thev know this to
be true also. Moat country editors
are poor men. and are ao because of
their unwillingness to maintain a
.
living rate, and tnus tight the men
who want more than a living wage
(a living wage is <>nlv an existence,
nothing for a trip to the movies or
the visit of a doctor). Good wages
mean good times, as does also good
paces for the products of the farm.
These two go together and should
cooperate. Men with money can
find plenty of champions, but the
poor man has few champions for his
cause: and when he strikes it is for
the protection of his loved ones. To
lie sure, a huge sum is lost in wages
during a strike, but this is not al­
ways the fault of the worker—he
must be keptgin subjection, and if
he has no money the task is easier.
Some day the social justice problem
wdl be solved, we know not how.
but as the great public studies the
question and decides to do unto
others as they would lie done by,,
justice in industry and to the toiler
and farmer will come about. Andi
the press of the country better
awake, for their attitude is not
moulding public opinion today.
