WHY WOMEN AND INDUSTRY
ARE PARTNERS!
"I think after all the American
way of life means more to va home
making women than it does to any
other group of people," said the
woman.
"Not more than it does to the men
and women in Industry," answered
the man, fully aware of the impor
tance of our kind of democracy to the
free functioning of Industry.
"But it gives us a chance to realize
all our basic aspirations," the woman
went on.
"And what are these aspirations?"
he asked.
"There are five of them: We
want:
to create happy, comfortable
homes
to bring up children who will be
ahlfl to build for themselves in
freedom a still better world to
morrow to contribute to community and
social betterment through indi
vidual action and group partici
pation to defend, particularly in these
dark days, the cherished tradi
tions of the American way of
life, and
to insure a life of freedom for
ourselves and our families."
"Now let me see if I can sum up
Industry's ambitions which can only
Improved Soil Aids Child Health
be realized in a country like this.
"First of all, at this time Indus
try's objective is:
to build swiftly the sinews of
national defense so that our in
stitutions of freedom may be
preserved.
"After that its objectives are:
to build an even higher standard
of living for Americans.
to keep open the door of oppor
tunity and through science and
research, to create ever wider
horizons
to provide more jobs with higher
purchasing power."
By this tiie the woman had put
down her krutting and was leaning
forward eagerly. "But don't you
see," she asked, "that it's the same
thing we're after? In the long run
what we both want is the welfare of
the individual. That is the real rea
son you are seeking for a higher
standard of living, and the real rea
son we want to build happier homes."
"I see," he nodded. "So after all,
shall we say that we are partners
you women at home and we people
in industry?"
"Yes," said the woman, "with pre
servation of the American way of
life which means everything to the
individual our one objective!"
