Getting Right
The strike situation throughout the country has steadily improved
and in a few more days, there is reason to believe, there will be fewer
disturbances throughout the country. The trouble at the Chicago stock yards has
been settled, the Brooklyn Rapid Transit workers are back on the job, and the
railroad shopmen in many parts of the country are responding to the call of
their chiefs to return to duty.
The only way for conditions to improve in the United States,
and in the world also, is for everybody to produce as much as possible.
Idleness on the part of one class only injures all. “There is a shortage of practically
everything, viewed from pre-war standards, but there is enough for economical
needs. That is the main point.
Not until the world settles down to an orderly existence
will conditions become normal again, and the example of America doing its full
part will be a wholesome one for the other nations. This country has assumed
leadership. It can be made good or bad, depending on our people.
The resumption of work everywhere and honest endeavor to
meet the call of duty will tend more to make prosperity permanent and to reduce
the exorbitant cost of living, with a shaking up of the profiteers, than
anything else we know of Let us remember that fact.
