THE SCOPE AND
PRESIDENTS
OUR PART
PURPOSE
OF THE
EMERGENCY
RE-EMPLOYMENT
CAMPAIGN
The President’s Emergency Re-employment Campaign may be
described briefly as a plan to add from 5,000,000 to 6,000,000 persons
to the nation's payrolls within the next six weeks or so, through
agreements made with the President of the United States by some
5,000,000 concerns or individuals employing two or more persons each.
In order that this number of jobs may be made available, it will
be necessary of course fot employers in many cases to shorten work­
ing hours. The plan also provides for certain minimum wage scales
which also in many cases will mean added labor costs for the employer.
The President’s Agreement, however, includes a pledge of coopera­
tion from the consuming public, and it is thus anticipsted that the
employer while undertaking a larger expense as the direct result of
his agreement with the President, will gain added patronage as the
just reward of his public spirited attitude.
The fact also is to be borne in mind that where all employers act
together to put people back on their payrolls or to raise wages, no
employer, as the President himself has pointed out, “will suffer because
the relative level of competitive cost will advance by the same amount
for all."
It is to be understood that this plan is supplementary to the plan
of code adoption by various industrial and trade groups which has for
its purpose Ilie elimination of unfair competition, the establishment of
more equable rewards for labor, the spread of employment and the
control of production. This plan for speeding business recovery,
launched under the provisions of the National Recovery Act passed
by the last Congress, is rapidly being made effective, and there will
be no let up on the drive to make its adoption widespread.
The President's Emergency Re employment plan will bridge time
and bring the nation out of the depression more rapidly than if the
code adoption plan were dep nded upon exclusively. The President’s
Agreement also covers many business groups that would not be amen­
able to any of the code arrangements.
And what is still more important, perhaps, the President's Emer-
gency Re-employment campaign carries certain psychological values
that are as priceless as patriotism at this juncture of our economic
history. The President himself made this quite clear in his recent radio
address to the nation when he said: “On the basis of this simple prin­
ciple of everybody doing things together, we are starting out on this
nationwide attack on unemployment. It will succeed if our people
understand it—in the big industries, in the little shops, in the great
cities and in the small villages. There is nothing complicated about it
and there is nothing particularly new in the principle. It goes back to
the basic idea of society, and of the Nation itself, that people acting
in a group can accomplish things which no individual acting alone
could ever hope to bring about.”
•Thus we have all the power and potency of mass attack directed
along sound lines of organization and system. Here briefly, is an out­
line of this organized attack on unemployment: In every community,
organizations are formed along military lines, which is fitting enough,
because the President’s Emergency Re employment campaign is Uncle
Sam’s war on unemployment and the nation is rallying to the colors just
as loyally as though we were actually engaged in a war against a
foreign foe.
.The local committee is made up of the active beads of the leading
business and civic organizations, and includes also the mayor. These
committees in the thousands of cities and towns throughout the country
were formed following telegrams and letters sent by General Johnson
to the presidents of Chambers of Commerce or similar trade bodies in
every section of the United States. These local committees elect a gen-
eral to have charge of the city campaign and a lieutenant general who
is a woman. The general selects three colonels, each of whom is to take
over a certain part of the campaign work. For example. Colonel No. 1
has charge of the "man-power’’ or organization department. Under his
direction block-to-block canvasses will be made to check up on com­
pliance with the President's Agreement, and to make a survey of the
unemployed, as to adaptability by experience as to trades and indus­
tries and thus be able more readily to help in the processes of assimila­
tion of labor by expanding industries. Colonel No. 2, briefly, has charge
of newspaper publicity and kindred activities; and Colonel No. 3 las
the training and direction of public speakers under his charge.
Each of these three colonels has seven or more majors or his staff,
and each major has about the same number of captains. Each captain
has seven or more field workers. All of the local organizations are of
course, constantly supplied with educational and inspirational inferial
of all kinds from the National Recovery Administration in Washington.
Literally tons and tons of printed matter has been shipped to every
nook and corner of the country.
The N.R.A. emblem, known popularly as the Blue Ezgle, is one of
the most interesting and vital features of the campaign. All employers
who sign the President’s Agreement are entitled to display the Blue
Eagle with the initials N.R.A. and the words "We Do Our Part.”
Merchants, manufacturers and all others who have the night to display
the insignia by reason of their having complied with the President’s
Agreement, are permitted to hang it on their walls or in their windows,
or on trucks and cars. and. if they so desire, to stamp it on their prod-
ticts or merchandise. It is in fact the de ire of the Recovery Admin­
istration that all make liberal use of this badge of patriotism.
• Any person in the United States who wishes to cooperate in the
President’s Emergency Reemployment Campaign and be considered as
a member of the N.R.A. may go to the authorized establishment in his
locality and sign a statement of cooperation as follows:
"I will cooperate in re-employment br supporting and patron­
izing employers and workers who are members at N.R. 4."
Any such signer will then be given and may thereafter use the
insignia of consumer membership in N.R. A.
Every phase of the progress of this mighty campaign will be flashed
in the newspapers oi the country and announced constantly over the
radio. In this way everyone will be in a position to know just what the
campaign is doing from day to day in actually putting people back on
the payrolls and adding to the mass purchasing power of the country.
While. as has been stated, it is desired that liberal use of the
insignia be made by employer and consumers it Is to be remembered
that the official N.R.A. emblem is the property of the United States
Government and may not be used or reproduced without authority of
the National Recovery Administration.
J The lists of all employers who sign the President’s Agreement are
displayed in local post offices and it is urged that all employers who
have not yet signed the agreement do so immediately and deliver them
to their local post master.
With some miner exceptions, the terms of the President’s Agree­
ment with employers is briefly, as follows: Any employer of • factory
or mechanical worker or artisan must not pay him less than 40 cents
an hour or work him more than 35 hours a week, except that if the
employer were paying less than 40 cents for that kind of work
on July 15 the employer can pay that rate now, but not less than 30
cents an hour. As to all other employe — hose on a weekly rate the
employer will pay not less than $15 a week in a city of over 500,000
population; or $14.50 a week in cities of between 250,000 and 500.000;
or 811 a week in cities between 2,500 and 2 0,000 population; or $12.00
a week in cities of less than 2,500 populati n and the employer agrees
not to work this class of workers more than 10 hours a week. Aa Io
employes who were getting a higher w e the employer must not
reduce their wages because of « reduction n their hours and he should
generally keep tie usual pay differences as between the lower and the
higher paid employes ‘nd after August 31 he mint not work children
under 16 rears of age. There are of course some other rules which
apply to special eases but the terms of the agreement as here outlined
cover the large bulk oi cases.

Raise Your Prices
by Eating Your Products
F thirty million farmers consume an extra dozen eggs per
week, it means thirty million dozen or one million cases out
of the market and within five weeks the tremendous surplus
will be converted into a shortage and prices will automatically
advance at least 5c per dozen.
One dozen eggs are worth about 10c to you. If you produce 30
dozen eggs per week at 5c advance, it means $1.50 or a net to you
of $1.40 more per case than you are getting, with the satisfaction
of having eaten a dozen good eggs for NOTHING.
If thirty million farmers eat one more pound of butter per week,
there will be thirty million pounds less on the market and in five
weeks the heavy surplus will be converted into a shortage result­
ing in an advance of at least 5c per pound.
One pound of butter is worth about 15c to you. If you are pro­
ducing 2 cans of cream, equal to a tub of butter per week, the ad­
vance of 5c per pound means an additional $3.00 per tub, or a
net gain to you on the tub per week of $2.85.
You can eat your products for NOTHING and make more money.
DON’T eat substitutes and pay for them.
The government and the public are in sympathy with you, but re­
member, all the power of the nation cannot help the man who
won’t help himself.
