LABOR DAY Labor Day falls on September 4 this year, and will be marked by the usual ob- servances, including ‘parades, picnics, speeehmaking and other diversions. When ti. ational Recovery Admini- stzation began to function several weeks ago, it was predicted that between five cad six million unemployed would be back at work by Labor Day. It is hoped that this prediction may be fulfilled, but pres- nt indications <re that it was too optimis- tic. It is to the credit of labor that during j the depression the unemployed have ex- ercised great patience and fortitude. On the other hand, those who have been able to contribute to their relief have respond- ed to the, necessities of the situation with a generous hand. It is indeed tragic that so many mil- lions of men and women who are willing to work are unable to find employment. | ° Yet the most able and earnest leaders in business, industry and labor circles have been unable to solve the distressing prob- lem. There has been a slight increase in employment in recent weeks, and it is be- though it will probably be quite a while be- fore work can be provided for all who sorely need it. As we pay homage to the importance and dignity of honest toil on Labor Day, let each resolve to do his part in the na- tional effort to relieve the miseries of un- employment. AN OPPORTUNITY IS OFFERED It is a significant fact that recent re- ports from all parts of the country show growing increases in residential construc- | [5 tion, | The meaning of that. is. clear. The three-year construction doldrum—in which home building was close to the non-existent point—has reached its end. The nation, in- stead of having an oversupply of homes, actually has a shortage, placed by various observers at around 500,000. Factories are opening up, men are going back to work, families are enlargening their bud- | gets. And home-building always comes high on the list at such times. Residential construction and mainten- ance, on a nation-wide scale, is going to be an important factor in speeding recov- ery. . And the wise ‘property-owner will see the handwriting on the wall. High- er prices for materials and supplies of all kinds are going to be here before we know it. The cost indexes have started up now —and they’re moving fast. The long era of bargains 1: nearing its end. It really is the last chance to buy at depression pric- es. So the property-owner has a double opportunity—to build and repair before costs sky-rocket, and to do his bit in pro- moting recovery by spending money for labor and svpplies. Don’t let that oppor- tunity pass! SOCIALIST PLATFORM How little party platforms mean these days is called to mind by an editorial in the Akron Times-Pregs, whiehgives the prin- cipal’ planks of the platform on which Nor- ‘man Thomas, Socialist candidate for presi- We Tana year ago. Mr. Thomas promis- + -tThat he. would. “repeal. unemploy- ment.” That he would ask five billion dol- lars for direct relief of the unemployed. That he would ask another five bil- lions for financing a public work program. That he would introduce a compul- sory six-hour day and five-day week with- out reduction in wages. That he would reorganize industry on a planned basis. That he would push the principle of pubjic ownership.
