Armstrong, hea8 of the sils manufacturing company whici bas one branch in this city, believes that industrial concerns shouid put patriotism above profits for some tims in the recomstruction period after the war in handling the employment prob- | lems that will arise through the re- turn of the men now in military ser- viee. In an interview in the New York Evening Sun, Mr. Armstrong says that not only should industry remember men now employed in large factories, at $250.00. and Crex Rugs, in all sizes. at less than mill pncu. aking the places of those in the ser- but places should be made for ose who will soon return. “In many cases this will seem im- practical.” he admits. “but practical or not practical, ‘patriotism before profits’ should he the slogan of all concerns employing large units of men. Even if certain industries find it i: necessary {0 empioy more fmen than needed. it should be remembered that American industry has been safe- guarded by the mien at the front and in the service. In the beginning these men may not find their employment o ‘\mnfy their hire. Shortly after in- dustry” has been adjusted from 2 war to a peace status lost motion of this kind will disappear. The great vol- ume of business American factories will have to handle after the war will keep employment agencies throughout the country husy day and night. In- dustries which_have trained men be- fore this development takes place will find it much easier to meet thig cNa- dition of prosperity. The training pe- d should begin as soon aftey the n are¢ discharged from the service as possibie. With this in view. Mr. Armstrong has addressed his letters t6 the byards of directors of all companies ®ith which he is connected. Following is a copy of the letter in which he asked that consideration of this kind be given to laber: “Soon those young men who have answered their country’s call will be urning |, from the battlefields of France and the camps in our own country. “As they return to fili their old places in the world of business the managers of business enterprises will have new proslems to solve. “It is, of course, our first duty and desire to have their old places ready for them the moment They return. This “re shall do as a matter of cour for our first duty is to them; but we also have a duty and obligation to those who have been fillinz their pidces in their absence, and if to re- lease from duty at once those who have been performing the work of tte men in service will result in hardship in these days of high cost of living, then 1 suggest that for one year after the signing of peace we who have the direction of corporations or husinese enterprises lay aside the or- dinary rules of business managemenf, ery vear (after paying the numerous avy expenses) and absolute neces- sity and let us this year put the ques- tion of'profits into the background. “Tet us zo, if necessary, a vear time with those who have accommodated the public and our company needs hy entering our employ and taking up work to which they were not perhaps accustomed, and let us keep them in our employ until they find other posi- tions. everr where this to a consid- erable exten! may result in our hav- ing for several months more people on our payroll than the business de- mands, and even though this meéans we ignore for the time being the rules of successful business management. “In other words let us back up our gcvernment and the bovs who have heen fightinz for their esuntry by put- tinz patridtism far and away above profits. “Let us go. if necessary, a vear. without vnrofits or with very small profits and show the boys as they re- turn that we aporeciate their cheerful response to their country’s eall, and let. usy show this appreciation not merely by eur words, but much more by our deeds. “T shall urge that this policy be adopted in the case of all companles with which-I am assomzled o C.
