THE DIGNITY OF LABOR

In accordance with time honored tradition, America next Monday will observe a one-day holiday, a day set aside to glorify the dignity of human labor.

As a matter of fact back some 7G years ago when the idea of a Labor Day was first proposed, there was little glory connected with human labor. But in the eyes of divine Providence there was as much dignity in the ac-complishment of an honest day's work as there is today.

Fast going is tha t small group of citizens who looked upon those who labored with their hands, and their backs and their minds as mere work animals. There were those who regarded the sweat or work, the muscle ache that comes with fatigu , and the exhaustion of toil as being something that just applied to inferior levels of society and certainly nor. to themselves.

Today the most secure group of American citizens are those who elected in youth to follow one of the skilled trades or professions. Strong unions have grown from the abuse of a previous era. These unions protect the skilled craftsman and assure his economic security. These bene-fits even extend to unorganized labor.

Labor will be able to enjoy these benefits just as long as production justifies. But if big pay and no production ever should become the rule in America, the goose that lays the golden egg will be destroyed.

Enjoy Labor Day. But be thankful in the dignity of human labor and your ability to deliver an honest day's work for an honest day's pay. The satisfaction of per-sonal accomplishment in you own heart is something that can never be included in a pay check.
