VANISHING JOBS
One day in the outskirts of
Chicago I witnessed a traffic ac
cident. A grocer’s delivery cai
struck one of several children
playing in the street and injured j
him painfully. Playmates scat
tered in excited disorder seeking
the boy’s parents, a doctor a po
liceman. Each child tried to do
what he thought needed most to
be done. The father, a hairy
specimen, was the first “help” to
arrive.
. No sooner had his dark eyes
taken in the situation than he be
gan to scold the injured boy. He
didn’t actually cuff his son but
he said some really harsh things
for the patient to bear along with
his injury. (It turned out to be a
broken arm.) The unhappy deliv
eryman took some oral abuse also.
The father contributed nothing
else. He vented his anger freely
with profanity in thick dialect.
Doesn't Make Sense
Maybe some learned expert on
human behavior could have ex-1
plained that father’s actions. A
suffering child wept; unknown in
juries waited treatment while
duly constituted authority did a
loud job of attaching blame with
out investigation. Understanding
this might help explain why peo
ple. openly committed to the in
terests of labor, work so effec
tively making jobs scarce.
! .Destroying jobs does not help
labor Workers are never so well
off as when there are plenty of
jobs. An employee’s right to quit
his job and take a better one
ma^es pay good, also working con
ditions. Employers who are lib
eral and considerate of their em
ployees get the best men and head
the best organizations. This is as
much a part of America’s Free
- Enterprise1*’ syntom as owning
i property
Where the Jobs Are
Not many years ago competent
workmen often quit their jobs
with big corporations to go in
business for themselves. They did
it, not because they wre sure to
earn more. In fact, they knew
they might earn less. They did
it for liberty to use their own
ideas. They had self-confidence
and believed their plans would
prosper. The element of chance
1 made it fun to operate businesses
j of their own.
Running your own business is
, no fun now; more like a head
ache, and this sad fact is closing
the doors of many one-time
thriving little enterprises. Seven-;
ty-five pe cent of all American
workers are engaged in small
business. If. in the post-war per-;
iod, small employers are hopeless;
; if they find no reason to stay in(
business, see no chance to excel,
get no fun from competition, jobs
will be really scarce.
Thinking Time Now
Working people in this country.’
of they are wisely looking out for;
1 their own interests, have no big
1 ger stake in anything than in
I small enterprises be they farms
I or factories. What good is all the
I oratory about schooling discharged

service men to fit them for cer
tain jobs if most of the jobs are
doomed to vanish, leaving two
men waiting for every position
that’s left?
There is no certainty that there
will be enough jobs alter the war
to employ service men and former
war workers in pursuits of peace.
There is no assurance in the words
of the politician getting tough
with crippled industry »saying
‘‘Big Business must put them all
to work or support a gigantic
WPA to employ them ” It is like
the voice of the benighted father
cursing his maimed child. The
right steps taken will assure plen
ty of jobs. Next time we will out
line those steps.
