The years 1923, 1924 and 192f. have beeu comparatively quiet and free from atrikea and industrial snuggles over wages. Lmring 1922 there were 1,612,502 employes engaged in stricks. io the following three years the iecor.. i was: 11)23 bad 1,199 labor disputes with 7Gli,u84 emiioyes involved; i 24 had 898 strickes with 054,64 1 involved; in 1925 only 428,218 persons per-sons participated iu labor disputes. Since 1923 'there have been more wage increases than decreases positive posit-ive proof that the period since 1922 has been uniformly prosperous and that means a broader distribution of v eal'th and a gretter prosperity for a ili.i iger nuui'ber. If is essential that every citizen it) our country should unde-istand some of the 'pranary sources of wealth which make possible steady employment employ-ment good wages, and short hours in this nation. Any polilieil pa..), poii'.'en' gioup or individual, instrumental in disturbing dis-turbing or crippling productive enter-p.i.e enter-p.i.e destroys employmet and steady wages. If the people understand these facts the day of the agitator in thi". 'country will be more difficult and the roadto steady employment and good wages will become constantly smoother. The future is in our own hands. |
