Indiana. Employment Chief Sees That as Solution

- To Manpower.

The nation’s manpower distribution can be solved through voluntary Job changes, J. Bradley Haight, acting Indiana director of the U. 8. Employment Service, said yesterday When he spoke at the meeting of the Indiana Highway Constructors, Inc.

‘He stated that the war manpower mmission will not have to force Workers’ to take jobs vital to the war effort. . "The highway constructors re@lected all officers for another term at’ the closing meeting at the Claypool hotel. They ‘are Robert H. King of Danville, president; John Dehner of Ft. Wayne, vice president; R. L. Schutt of Indian#polis, secretary-treasurer, and W. M. Holland of Indianapolis, executive secretary. <The more than 300 delegates were assured that they would receive the necessary war materials, gasoline and manpower to complete work important to the war effort. _ Other speakers were George F. une, district manager of the ’.0of defense transportation; ¢ Altchison, director of gasoline : rationing in Indians, and Samuel C. Hadden, chairman of the Indians state highway commission.

PLAN FOR POST-WAR CRISIS, BATT URGES]

"PHILADELPHIA, Dec. 18 (U. P). —The nation must consider means of meeting the economic crisis which may’ follow the close of war, William L, Batt, vice chairman of the war production board, declared yesterday.at the 50th commencement exercises of Drexel Institute of Technology. He was awarded an honorary degree of doctor of

cialties they dealt with in the service—and theyll be on the prod, wanting to get set and get ahead in the glittering new world that's looming. Most important, they will have seen the world and judged for themselves, and they will know, as traveled Americans all know, that there is no other people and no other country like their own homeland, and they will bring to its preservation and advancement a firmness of conviction and a certainty of purpose which will not be turned aside. They will have had a bellyful of regimentation, too. They will have resolved, if they feel as most of us did after the last war, that there'll be no more “standing in line” for anyone. Now the big thing in making the rich promise which lies at the war's end come true is at bottom a psychological thing. The people—all the people—have to believe in it. They have to see the vision, for it is as true in economics or in industrial potential or in national development as in the Bible, that “where there is no vision, the peo-|t ple perish.” We had that vision once. Before we had it, in the 150 years from Plymouth Rock to the war of independence, we coasted along as a snarl of colonies and did no ‘amount to much. Trading rank tobacco and ranker rum for English furniture constituted most of

reversed. They speak sincerely of the need for a “favorable environment for risk-taking” and for ‘‘restoration of incentive” and for “assurances of reasonable rewards” as indispensable preliminaries to productive action. They are very logical; they may even be right. But it seems to me they want to idle the motor and conduct a highway safety survey before refining the gasoline to put in the tank to make the automobile go. That may be the right of it; a good many: economists also say it is. I confess these gentlemen abash me for the most part, sending the lay mind reeling with their swarming statistics: and confident second guessing. : But I should like to point out that too often in their equations, it seems to me, they oyerlook a primary factor without which there would be no statistics to tabulate and no economy to rationalize, : The primary factor I mean is a dauntless man. Out of a passionate belief in his idea, out of stubborn will and an unshakable conviction at his heart, such a man refuses to be put off, dissuaded, or discouraged, but drives steadily on until he has founded a business, a fortune, and a legend. Most of our great businesses and industries of | today were founded by such men. Most of their collateral was character, and most of their capital was faith; and so it will be of such men until the last trumpet. Sharpen your pencils and thump your comptometers all you will, the vision comes first. And when the people sense what can be, when after the war they realize we stand, if we so will, on the threshold of a time more rich and productive and serviceable to all than the world has ever known, one spark in the right place at the right time will
