If the $160,000,000 net earnings came into the pockets of the work-givers as a- result of labor of $60,000'men, this would mean that each worker contrib- uted $1,000 to that worthy purpose. That this is a. small sum to pay for the privilege of working a whole. year,- and at the same time to be clothed with the priceless mantle of dignity,- even the most carping critic must ae- knowledge.

Numerous instances have occurred recently where hungry men have fought fiercely for possession of jobs at points where employment has been offered. A case in point is that of 300 men who not long since engaged in a desperate battle at the gates of the Cleveland plant of the United States Steel Corporation, for the pos- session of the jobs offered, and which were far too few to go around.
