Still it has the power to enslave you. , Talk can weaken the morale of workers at Hill Air Force base. Talk can also zoom morale of Hillfielders to stratospheric heights. Whether morale is high or low depends entirely on you. Which will you choose? ' v If you choose to talk about the little things that are not quite right on your job and if you help to spread rumors about waste", inefficiency, and poor management, you are working toward your own enslavement. But talk alone is not the cause of trouble it is the result of trouble. The real trouble lies in allowing or tolerating any bad condition which can be talked about! Don't be apathetic about mistakes. Don't merely talk about them like C. D. Warner says everyone does about the weather. Do something to right the wrong. either of manpower, materials, Tolerating and talking of waste or money lowers morale, decreases production, and raises costs. High costs cripple and limit our defense effort. Talk, coupled with positive action aimed at remedying any weakness in our operation, heightens morale, increases production, cuts costs, and strengthens our bastions of defense. Whether morale and costs are high or low depends on you.
