In every community, pies, which is fitting enough, jv'iymcnt campaign is Uncle i is.rallying to the colors j'Wt .V wt oo OUR f Airf THE . SCOPE AND PURPOSE OF THE ^RESIDENT'S EMERGENCY RE-EMPI.OYMENT CAMPAIGN lit PnudlBt'i £mergeacy Re-employment Caaapaiga Bif W described hriefly as a plan to add from 5,000,000 to 6,000,000 persons ; to the cation's payrolls within the next six weeks or so, through agreements made with the President of the United Slates by some 5^000,000 concerns or individuals employing two or .more persons each. In order that this number of jobs may be made available, it will be necessary, of course, for employers in many cases to shorten working hours. Tho plan also provides for certain minimum wage scales which also in many cases will mean added labor costs for the employer. The President's Agreement, however, includes a pledge of cooperation from the consuming public, and it is thus anticipated that the employer while undertaking a larger expense as the direct result of ' bis, agreement with the President, will gain added .patronage as the : j u s t r e w a r d o f h i s p u b l i c s p i r i t e d a t t i t u d e . ' ' * The fact also is to be borne in mind that where alKemployers act together to put people back on their payrolls or to raise wages, no employer, as the President himself has pointed out, "will suffer because the relative level of competitive cost will advance by the same amount f o r a l l * It is to be understood that this plan is supplementary to the plan of code adoption by various industrial and trade groups which has for its purpose the elimination of unfair competition, .the establishment of more equable rewards for labor, the spread of employment and the eontfol of production. This plan for-' speeding business recovery, launched under the provisions of the National Recovery Act psssed by the last Congress, is rapidly being made effective, and there will be no let-up on the drive to make its adoption widespread. The President's Emergency Re-employment plan will bridge time and bring the nation out of5 the depression more rapidly than if the code adoption plan .were depended upon exclusively. The President's Agreement also covers many business groups that would not be amenable to any of the code arrangements. And what is still more important, perhaps, the President's'Emergency Re-employment campaign carries certain psychological values that are as priceless as patriotism at tliis juncture of our economjc history. The President himself made this quite clear in his recent radio address to the nation when he said: "Oh the basis of this simple principle of everybody doing things together,.we are starting out on this nationwide attack on unemp'oyment. It ui!l Succeed if our people understand'it--in the big industries, in the little shops, in the great cities and in the small villages. There is nothing complicated about it and there is nothing particularly new in the principle. It goes back to the basic idea of society, and of the N-aiion itse'j, that people acting in a group can accomplish thin gs which no individual acting alone could ever hope to bring about." Thus we have all the power arJ along sound lines of organization line of this organized attack on ui* organizations are formed along mils because the President's Emergency Sam's war on unemployment and tin as loyally as though we were actually engaged in a war against 4 foreign foe. 1 The local committee is made up of the active heads of the leading business and civic organizations, and includes also the mayor. These committees in the thousands of cities and towns throughout the country were formed following telegrams and letters sent by General Johnson to the presidents of Chambers of Commerce or Similar trade bodies in every section of the United States. These local committees elect a general to have charge of the city campaign and a lieutenant general who is a woman. The general selects three colonels, each of whom is to take over a certain part of the campaign work. For example, Colonel No. 1 has charge of the "man-power" or organization department. Under his direction block-to-block canvasses will be made to check up on compliance with the President's Agreement, and to make a survey of the unemployed, as to adaptability by experience as to trades and indus- . tries and thus be able more readily to help in the processes of assimilation of labor by expanding industries. Colonel No. 2, briefly, has charge of newspaper publicity and kindred activities; and Colonel No. 3 has the training and direction of public speakers under his charge. Each of these three colonels has seven or more majors on hi* staff, and each major has about the same number of captains. Each captain has seven or more field workers. All of the local organizations are, of course, constantly supplied with educational and inspirational material of all kinds from the National Recovery Administration in Washington. Literally tons and tons of printed matter has been shipped to every nook and corner of the country. The N.R.A. emblem, known popularly as the Blue Eagle, is one of the most interesting and vital features of the campaign. All employers who sign the President's Agreement are entitled to display the Blue Eagle with the initials N.R.A. and the words "We Do Our Part." Merchants, manufacturers and all others who have the right to display the insignia by reason of their having complied with the President's Agreement, are permitted to hang it on their walls, or in their windows, or on trucks and cars, and, if they so desire, to stamp it on their prod- .nets or merchandise. It is, in fact, the desire of the Recovery Administration that all make liberal use of this badge of patriotism. Any person in the United States who wishes to cooperate in the - President's Emergency Re-employment Campaign and be considered as a member of the N.R.A. may go to the authorized establishment in his loqdity and sign a statement of cooperation as follows: "I will cooperate in re-employment by supporting and patroniting employers and workers who are members of N.R-A." Any such signer will then be given and may thereafter use die insignia of consumer membership in N.Rf.A. Every phase of the progress of this mighty campaign will be flashed in the newspapers of the country and announced constantly over the radio. In this way everyone will be in a position to know just what the • campaign is doing from day to day in actually putting people back onthe payrolls and adding to the mass purchasing power of the country. While, as has been stated, it is desired that liberal use of the" insignia be made by employer and consumers, it is to«be remembered that the official N.R.A. emblem is the property of the United States Government and may not be used or reproduced without authority of the National Recovery Administration. The lists of all employers who sign the President's Agreement are displayed in local post-offices and it is urged that all employers who have not yet signed the agreement do ao immediately.and deliver them to their local post-master. With some minor exceptions, the terms of the President's Agreement with employers is, briefly, as follows: Any employer of a factory or mechanical worker or artisan must not pay him less than 40 cents an hour or work him more than 35 hours a week, except that if the employer were paying less than 40 cents for that kind of' Work on July 15 the employer can pay that rate now, but not less than 30 cents an hour. As to all other employes--those on a weekly rate--the employer will pay not less than $15 a week in a city of over 500,000 population; or $14.50 a week in ci;i?s of between 250,000 and 500,000; or $14 a week in cities between 2.500 and 250,000 population; or $12.00 a week in cities of less than 2,500'population, and the employer agrees . not to work this class of workers more than 40 hours a week. As to employes who were getting a higher wa-e. the employer must not reduce their wages because of a reduction in their hours and he should generally keep the usual pay di.Terences as between the lower and the higher paid employes. And after AnCTtf ?! he must not work children under 16 years of age. There are, «•> t - some other rules which apply to special cases, bat the terms m lie agreement as bote outlined cover the large* bulk of cases.
