Friday, October 29, 1943. aaaaBBgaaaBBB Lei's Have The Taels The Railroad Operating Brotherhoods are calling a strike vote among their membership. The step is perfectly legal, and is little more than what is being done by corporations and by millions of individuals. As a result of the action, a bombardment is to be expected in the press and over the air. The ! bombardment is permissible in a land of free ; speech, and there can be no argument on that | count as long as both sides have the opportune ity to make their own speeches. But what both j sides should remember is that the public is en- ! titled to the basic facts. It is hoped that the plain facts will be presented for it isn’t enough for the laboring man to say that he isn’t making en- j ough to meet living costs and it isn’t enough for j the railroad management to say the worker is I receiving big money. Strange as it may seem, industry in some j cases has appealed to the authorities for pay in- j creases for their workers, admitting that the frozen wage scale was not fair. It is indeed gra tifying to learn that one industry in this coun ty recently increased the wages for its work ers, and informed the authorities of its action. The step may not be in strict harmony with le gal principles, but measured in terms of right and wrong, the action is justified in our humble estimation. Getting back to the railroaders, the burden is believed to be on the shoulders of the workers to prove that they are entitled to a wage boost. But until more basic facts are submitted by both side swithout color and without bias, one cannot justly condemn either. M e Mast Have Oar Say According *o the Office of War Information, about 2,200,000 long distance telephone calls are being made in this country each day. We just must have our say, and in the face of such a rec ord as that some of our allies might think we do nothing but talk In addition to our verbal rampages over thir ty billion pieces of U. S. mail, weighing over three million tons, were handled in this country in 1942. . . .. —■■ -*p— Thc American W-1vy Of Life By Ruth Taylor. What, is the American way of lilt? —■ —»he ti-at , som.f'times it seems a tntie threadbare, at corners, its lustre dulled by familiarity. Our public speakers—particularly at campaign time —act as though it. were an abracadabra or magic word that could unlock hidden troves of treasure. Of course you know the full meaning of the phrase but have you ever tried to explain the American way of life to someone who did not know America, who was not stepped in the tra ditions of democracy? 1 have—and let me assure you it is no easy task. But it does make you stop and think what you really mean by the American way of life. Here is what I found I meant by the phrase. The American way of life is the way of op portunity for all. It does not mean an equal dis tribution of all good things, but an equal chance to work for a living at a fair wage. It means free enterprise—free to develop, but not unbridled license to exploit either man or natural re sources It means an equal opportunity to learn, not an equal ability to get ahead without work. The American way of life is the way of self restrained freedom. Under it we may freely ex press our own opinion—but we abide by the de cision of the mainrity. The American way of life implies a decent respect lor the beliefs of oth ers, whether or not we agree with them. Under it freedom is permitted up to the point where it impinges upon the rights of others. The American way of life is the way to prog ress through the utilization of every resource— not merely the natural ones of the earth, but of that greatest resource of our nation—the in telligence, the initiative, the productive power latent in every individual, regardless of class, creed or color. The American way of life is the way to the rainbow’s end, to the fulfilment of the dream of brotherhood. We Americans may have dif ferent faiths, different backgrounds, different \ speech, different color. We have the same way ) of work, the same wav of life. We know the ‘ same sorrows, joys and hopes. The American j way of life is the way by which we may achieve the desire of all for a world unvexed by war, untroubled by want or fear. The American way of life is our way. Let us walk in it for centuries to come, its road made steadily smoother by the patient feet of each generation. “The communication facilities of the U. S. have been expanded to handle millions of words muie every day—probably the greatest and fastest exchange of intelligence the world has ever known.” And. vet so many of us learn about all we know by reading the comics and h-stem-iig to the politico propagandists.

This team .s deploying to stop enemy tanks so their buddies can widen the criB death m and our team will stop 'em cold. Never before did we quite realize the similarity between buses and bazookas. For it's teamwork in Carolina Trailways that has enabled us to handle tre mendously increased wartime travel, with practically no r.t m equipment, It's teamwork that has helped us solve other trying and difficult problems. We're all pulling to gether, from traffic manager to dispatchers, drivers, maintenance men, clerks and ticket agents. You too can do your part in this "teamwork" . . . by observing a few simple rules: If you must travel, see your Trailways agent first . . . arrange your trip in ad vance. Go week-days ... be prompt getting to the terminal... carry just one suitcase. CAROLINA VNULWAVS a UteJJ i ice. All the members are urged to be present.
