THE UNION REVIEW
I believe that in union there is strength. I believe in the union
I represent, in the cause I am fighting for and my ability to win the
fight, and in the pleasure of defending my union. I believe a man
cet get what he goes after and that a fight today is worth a war to-
morrow. I believe no man has taken the count until he’s down and
out and hast lost faith in himself. I believe in today and in the fight
I am waging, in tomorrow, in the battle I hope to continue and in
the future for a decided victory. I believe in genuine backbone, as-
sociated with the best brand of grit, sandwiched with the ability to
look the whole world in the face, and all forfeited with a pure heart,
born of a noble birth and parentage. I believe I am a man of this
caliber. Amen.
We would like to see an all-day Sunday closing law
for grocery stores, fruit stands and meat markets. A
state law authorizing incorporated cities to regulate their
Sunday closing of various lines of business and a city
ordinance with public sentiment behind its enforcement
should accomplish a satisfactory solution of this problem.

Increasing the purchasing power of low paid wage earners is
generally recognized as being one of the fundamental principles the
application of which will bring prosperity to industry. The difficulty
of the remedy is that the increase must be provided by the employ-
ers in pay envelope contents for their employes. And so far employ-
ers manifest a definite disinclination to part company with any of
their surplus funds for this commendable purpose.
A visualization of this question was presented by Secretary of
Labor Frances Perkins in an address before the recent Farm Insti-
tute at Des Moines, Iowa. She is reported as having said that if the
small sum of one dollar a month per person were added to the in-
comes of the lowest paid groups in the United States during the next
few years, the expenditure of that augmented purchasing power
would raise the sale of commodities to levels never attained here-
tofore.
The remedy offered by Miss Perkins is valid. The only hitch in
the program is the persistence,of one of the smallest but most signif-
icant words in the English language—“if.”
Expressed plainly and in more definite phraseology, Miss Per-
kins evidently meant, to say this. If employers would increase wages
only one dollar per month per person to workers in the lowest in-
come groups for a number of years, the spending of this increase of
one dollar per month would provide a very much larger market for
goods. But the employers just won’t do it.

By DR. CHARLES STELZLB
Executive Director, Good Neighbor League.
“The best government is aristocratic,” the philosopher Aristotle
said a couple of thousand years ago. Thomas Jefferson, a great Amer-
ican democrat, said the same thing. But neither Aristotle nor Jeffer-
son meant that the best government should be in the hands of those
whom we commonly call “aristocrats” today.
The word aristocratic is derived from the Greek word “aristos,”
which means The best.” The word democracy is derived from the
Greek word “demos,” meaning “the people.”
Most of us will agree that government should be in the hands
of the ‘best people,” a combination of aristocracy and democracy.
This means that the best government is that which is controlled by
an aristocracy drawn from all classes, who are given leadership be-
cause of their character, their virtue, their ability to govern.
This shuts out the mob which possesses none of these require-
ments. It shuts out the gangs which have secured control in many
of our cities. It shuts out the politicians who stoop to low-down
tricks or selfish practices. It shuts out those who have acquired eco-
nomic power but who use i‘to exploit the workers. It shuts out so-
called ‘labor leaders” who are dominated by the class spirit.
In the last analysis, the government should be in the hands of
an aristocracy, composed of all classes, regardless of race, creed,
color, or economic condition. These are the people who should con-
stitute the rulers in a democracy which is Truly aristocratic.
This would be an aristocracy of brains, of virtue, of character.
These qualities are just as prevalent among the workers of America
as they are among the wealthy, the social leaders, the industrialists,
those who now sit in the seats of those whom we regard as the
“mighty.”
Our country is safe because our Constitution is based upon the
principles just described. There can be no better form of govern-
ment. The real aristocrat will defend this government against every
attack that is made upon it. If the time should ever come when our
form of government should fail, it will be only because we have lost
our character, our virtue, our courage to maintain it.
No outside force can take these from us. It will be only as we
become flabby, or indifferent, or cowardly that this may happen. In
other words, only as we lose our “aristocratic” spirit. This is the
spirit which dominates the “common” people of America. And be-
cause they outnumber all others, we may rest assured that our de-
mocracy is safe.
