HARD LESSONS —
OF WAR TO AID
NATION IN PEACE
By RALPH H. TAYLOR
America at War, and America at
work, fighting and sWeating to win
a hard earned victory—is learning
lessons which may prove. of vast
Value in returning the country t®a
It is highly improbable, at least,
that America, during the next decade, will place much faith in an economy of scarcity such as was foisted
on this nation during the decade of
depression. :
Faced with a bitter war for survival, America: has learned that it
must literally work out its own salvation—by its own might. its own
sweat and its own prodigious production, as well ag by the courage
and: resourcefulness of its men in the

America has learned again that
there is pride and joy in hard manual labor. And it has learned. ‘to pin
its faith in ali out production, rather
than in Washington cure-alls; or government directives,
A few weeks ago, sixteen major
organized groups, including the principal farm and—labor organizations,
met at Atlantic City and spent two
days discussing the problems which
will confront America in the postwar world—and how to meet them.
_. And the declaration of principles
{2nd objectives that came out of that
gathering leaves little doubt that
American labor and American biisiness and American agriculture be.

lieve that we’ must win the peace,
just as we are winning the war—by
all-out production!
Before reviewing the decisions
reached, and the recommendations
made, note should be taken of the
organizations represented in this
post war planning conference. For

After pledging all their resources
io
}
and facilities ‘to peak production
“win the war, the sixteen nation-wide
i organizations made this significant
} statement of faith and program:
“The addition to recognition of
ithis joint responsibility to the men
in the armed. forces, the delegates
Present also recognized their joint
Tesponsibility and opportunity to.assft in the solution of the many serious problems which confront the
nation now and tater.
“Tt is the: unanimous conclusion
of the conference that the highest
degree of prosperity and employment. is assured when widespread
buying power of the public, based on
the production of.goods and services,
is maintained. It is further agreed
that over any long period of time:
INo one group can be prosperous unless the other groups are also prosperous,
“We believe it is possible to make
democracy work more effectively by
sroups getting together ‘volnntarily,
as a part of their responsibility io
society as. a whole. It ean be done
and we are optimistic as to the future of America. Our economy must
be judged by the measure of opportunity it provides for all our citizens.
“Therefore, with reference to post
war objectives for America, we favor:
*An economy of plenty instead of
scarcity. i
“An opportunity for people to
have jobs and increasingly better
living standards and educational advantages. *
“An opportunity for people to save
and iinvest.
“These goals mean that mass employment, ruinous farm: prices, violent ups and downs in business.
monopolistic practices in any field,
socialization of business, and a government planned economy for the
nation must be avoided. The desired
objectives can be brought about by
united. cooperative action and understanding among all of the country’s
major economic sroups as producers
and consumers.”
Reading that, may we not take
heart at this evidence of a returning
public consciousness that the fundamental social and economic laws of
life, learned through the ages of experience, cannot be lightly. broken
or flaunted by wishful thinking,
‘without grave injury to the nation?

threw him expertly. This huge
bearded fellow was a cow hand all
right, Lew admitted. But there was
something else. Watching, while the .
hot Cross T iron was run on the j
steer’s shoulder, he felt again the .
strain of Clay Manning’s unnatural . :
silence, sitting his horse there close
saying nothing.
He turned his gaze up the valley
and saw Tom Arnold coming from
the creek-bottom trees and paused
then *with his eyes fixed upon the
pole fences of the dipping chute,
like two .wide-open. arms reaching
out for an eighth of a mile.
Then Clay Manning said idly,
‘“‘What took you to the rims this
morning?”’
“The view,’’ he said, his eyes still
speculating on the dipping chutes.
“Always did like it from up there.’’
“That, all?’’ Clay’s voice was
roughly edged. ‘‘I’d like to know~”’

He saw his pléa have a strange
effect in the blue eyes, troubling
them with a houtded look. And it
seemed to bring Clay out into the
open for-an instant. Bitterly he said,

‘‘How’s that?’
“Use the dipping-chute. Roping’s
too slow. We could run this whole
bunch through by. dark tonight.’’
Ed Splann had flipped his . loop
free from:the branded steer and had
turned toward them. He brought
his horse to a stop close beside
Clay’s in time to hear this last talk.
He leaned forward in his saddle.
“What kind of schoolboy game is
that? What’s the matter, Burnet,
can’t you use a rope?”’
“Lew looked at him steadily, saying nothing. Somehow in this man
he saw a trouble center on the Cross
T. There was a surly sureness about
him, more than the arrogance $
brute strength. He wondered agai
why Clay would tolerate his sort in
the crew.
Then, as if made more bold and.
sure by that silence, Splann goaded,
“Leave him try his schoolboy trick!
Come on, Clay.”’
. Suddenly this €arly morning’s
calm decision to. keep things running without trouble was gone. He
understood that he was being ribbed
into a fight. It was what Splann
wanted, a showdown. Jt might as
well come now as later. ee
He swung his horse to get Clay
from between them.. But in that
same instant, incredibly fast, a gun
was in ‘the man’s right fist. There
was no smokiness inhis eyes now.

* It was Tom Arnold pounding toward them, his horse flung forward
in a rush that swept along a dust
cloud when he stopped. ‘What the :
hell’s going on here?” He glared at
Splann’s drawn. gun. With a hot
violence unlike him in a crisis he
blazed, “Clay, is this all you’ve got
to.do?”” He swung his angry stare.
“Lew, ‘what’s wrong?’
