Let's Build While We Fight
Americans have a habit of
quitting work and crowding
around when an accident occurs.
The case in point is the world’s
“accident” in Europe.
We are in danger of losing
our heads and stopping work
while the conflict is on. This
would be a serious happening
but, happily, every American
can help to prevent it without
adding to the noise and con
fusion of going to war.
The only thing necessary is to
go quietly on in attending to our
own business.
While our naval and military
forces are hastening to the front
to destroy agencies and obstacles
that seek to impede our growth,
it is essential that we double our
constructive efforts at home.
We can create and continue to
build while we fight and we
ought to seize upon this advan
tage as the greatest opportunity
created by the war.
Let useful building construc
tion, both public and private,
proceed. Production and hand
ling materials and public and
private construction work are
fundamental industries of the
country. Any tendency to sus
pend or postpone building pro
jects is inconsistent with main
taining our prosperity. The
country is prosperous. Building
investors should not hesitate to
go? ahead with their plans.
Railroads should spare no effort
to supply the building industry
with the cars needed to trans
port materials. Government,
state, county and municipal au
thorities should encourage the
continuance of all kinds of build
* ing* Road and street improve
ments in particular should go on
unabated. Bad roads and streets
are factors of first importance
m the present high cost of food
stuffs. Never before was the
improvement of highways so es
sential.
Let us build while we fight!
