While this writer has always looked upon work projects as being the best form of relief, where re lief is needed, and while we have always felt that wages paid were little enough and somewhat out of line between country and city, we cannot condone the action of WPA workers in going on strike be cause their hours of work have been increased. But a few short years ago men were crying for work. Private business was in such desperate needs that they could not meet their payrolls and men were discharged right and left. A generous government came forward and of fered them work at nominal hours and nominal pay. They gladly accepted, and since have been able to at least buy the necessities of life. But of more recent years some men within this group have adopted the insane idea that the govern ment owes them a living.' They have tried to fortify themselves by organizing under leadership that is indeed anything but American minded. Now these leaders ask them to strike and many of them are foolish enough to do as directed. The money with which these workers are paid comes from the pockets of all. Thus far the taxpay ers have looked upon work projects as being nec- essarv, but once strikes within the workers’ ranks take place, a long suffering public might right about face. When that happens there will be no more work projects and the workers will have to shift for themselves. It might be well for these men to pon der a moment the blessings that are ours as Amer ican citizens, and, if we all, regardless of our lot in life do not owe allegiance to our government ra ther than to a few half-baked Communists who seek to destroy our government and our institutions.
