(From a radio address over Station
WCCO, Minneapolis, Minn., on "The
Worker in Art and History." Hit ad
dress was sponsored by the Minnesota
State Federation of Labor.)
Scanning the history and the prog
l«ss of the laboring class, we find a
gradual change of the world in its at
titude toward the common man. It
will grow in momentum as time goes
oh. The day is at hand when he who
toils will receive all the benefits and
rights of his labor.
The labor movement is indebted
with gratitude to the artists and
Writers of the last century for their
BUdying art, which has inspired us
With hope and urged us on in our
efforts to make humanity free. They
have elevated our thoughts and light
ened our task by their encouragement
We are indebted to the thinkers
who consecrated their lives to the
causes of Truth and Humanity, who

aided us in throwing off the shackles
Of superstition and fear and made
our minds magnificent and free.
We are indebted to the scientists
for their eternal vigilance in comba
inj diseases jsd ijjsorsscfl trans
forming nature itself from the cold,
indifferent enemy it once had been
into a warm and helping friend.
We are indebted to all the inventors
who have made it possible to produce
for every material need of man, and
lifted the heaviest burdens of toil
from off our shoulders.
But first and foremost, we are in
debted and thankful to the working
people, who after long and weary
hours of toil had time and strength
to dream and work for a better day.
No glory was theirs, no immediate
reward. Yet they labored to trans
form the best thoughts of the proph
ets into actual life.
Out of these dreams imd thooghts
was born the labor movement.

to be a real home, must first of all be
livable. By livable, we mean enjoyment, and
comfort. Our lumber assures comfort, because it
keeps out the cold in winter and keeps out the heat
in summer. The even temperatures promoted by our
lumber are conducive to health and happiness in
the home.
Before you build, or buy, make certain that this
unexcelled living comfort will be assured you through
the exclusive use of our lumber.
Many of our efforts have been
crowned with victory many remain
yet to be finished.
We are waiting for the masses to
lend us their helping hand.
Some day they will see the light,
and will be drawn to our organization
with irresistible force.
They will forget their petty jeal
ousies and small personal grievances
and will live and labor for the com
mon good.
The labor movement reaches out
its hands to welcome everyone into
its fold.
It has within itself the power to
make good every promise, every great
exalted dream and aspiration ever
breathed in the breast of man.
It has the power to give all a most
beautiful life, filled with kindness,
love and tolerance.
It has the power to relieve human
ity from hunger, insecurity, worry and
want to give freedom and justice to
every man, woman and child, and to
bring out of the hearts of man the
noblest, the greatest, the most self
sacrificing thoughts and deeds.
The world today questions the right
of any man to live at the expense of
another.

PLUCKY WORKMEN OF
r**. AMERICA^y-rg
In an editorial in American Feder
ationist, attention is called to the
fine suirit of wage earners during the
depression. They certainly deserve
applause for facing the most disturb
ing conditions with a firm resolution
to meet their obligations and to help
their fellows. In the words of Broad
way, they have shown that "they can
take it.' They are still enduring that
most distressing element in the wage
earner's life—uncertainty—but JUrfe
keeping heart and purpose high.
In many workingmen's homes there
had existed for a number of years a
sense of comparative security. To
people who had an equit in a home,
a savings account, some insurance,
and perhaps something invested in
stocks and bonds, it seemed incred
ible that everything could be swept
away. Yet many wage earners with
a supposed reserve against old age
have lost one thing after another, so
that they are now not as well off as
when they started in life. The very
fact that they are older counts heav
ily against them. Yet their morale
has not been broken.

AMBULANCE SERVICE—The Best to be Had

Those who still have work are
making sacrifices for their fellow
craftsmen. Through unemployment
benefits, loans, direct relief, protec
tion of* investments and distribution
of work they have tried to take care
of their own people. Neither those
who must accept such help nor the
workers still able to give it feel that
this is charity. It is a kind of organ
ized neighborliness. If there are not
enough jobs to go round in an indus
try, the men divide the work up. Few
may work a full week, but every one
has a chance to earn something.
The American Federationist does
not stretch the facts when it says that
"the record of wage earners during
this depression is open testimony to
their character and dependability.
This cannot but reinforce the feeling
of conscientious employers that they
have as deep a responsibility to the
workers as to those who invest in
their company or consume its prod
uct.—New York Times.
