UNEMPLOYMENT IN THE UNITED STATES 03 the rve ver wy.’ ent ing nes to ne- te Hla, he wat 188 18 he A= ce ad ad, WN re of ye A447 3 IE i In 1921 Mr. Hoover, as chairman of the President’s Conference on Unemploy- ment, made this statement: “There is no economic failure so terrible in its import as that of a country pos- sessing a surplus of every necessity of life in which numbers, willing and anxious to work, are deprived of these necessities. It simply can not be if our moral and economic system is to survive, * * * What our people wish is the opportunity to earn their daily bread, and surely in a country with its warehouses bursting with surpluses of food, of clothing, with (ts mines capable of indefinite production of fuel, with sufficient housing for com- fort and health, we possess the intelligence to find a solution. Without it our whole system is open to serious charges of failure.” We fully agree with this statement. We are convinced, moreover, that a par- tial solution of the problem of unemployment has already been found in the three bills which have been passed by the Senate. They are essential parts of a sound, unified program of action. The principles involved in these bills have been subjected to rigid criticism for many years and have been very widely endorsed by economists, business men, bankers, and social workers in all parts of the coun- try. Tt would be inexcusable for this country to go through another winter— possibly another winter rife with all the misery, unrest, and crime that go with involuntary unemployment—without taking the moderate and soundly conceived measures of prevention for which provision is made in the three Wagner bills, (Signatures to the petition:) Charles B.
