God Then into this world of working people came life’s most binding custom and labor’s most ancient law: “The laborer is worthy of his hire.” Two things are in that law. . * ¢ The first is the dignity of manhood. It is not labor, but the laborer that steps to the front. It is not labor that makes the man respectable, but the man that makes labor respectable. The individual comes before the system. Any scheme of society, whether put forth in the name of capital or of labor,| that*ignores or degrades the individual, is vicious. Labor unions have their uses, but they are worse than useless when their members become the victims of a system. Capital has its rights, but capital has no rights that are in advance of the rights of the laborer. The may takes precedence of the machine. for him rather than he for labor. Let labor project its reforms along this line, promoting and maintaining the fundamental rights and essential dig- nity of the man who works.
