His daughter, Esther (Mrs. Hughes -President (Continued from Page 1) omlc life. Our free and demo cratic labor movement is based upon the advancement of Indi vidual dignity. Today, as throughout our modern history, we rely upon the men and women of organized labor to help safeguard our democracy whose freedom Is lnseparately linked with their own. Now these beliefs and this sys tem face a stern test of history. Here in America, technologi cal change is altering the struc ture of Industrial production and the content of jobs across a . broad range of occupations. Old skills are rapidly outmoded. The demand for new skills out reaches the supply. It is clear that the mainten ance of a fully competent labor force requires constant reinvest ment in skills so that greater job opportunity, resulting from an expanded economic life, can be capitalized upon. Especially needful of attention is the situation of the older per son who becomes unemployed and finds no market for his abil ity and the young man or woman who faces a competitive labor force without adequate training. Perhaps in no other area of our national life is the need to realize our Ideal so clearly an ec onomic necessity as in the attain ment of genuine equality of op portunity for all. We serve our selves and the stature of free dom throughout the world by serving our moral commitment to equality. Our government, in Its own employment policies, will hold to this commitment and it must predominate in the person nel and membership policies of all organizations whose power or activities affect the public inter est. Full employment through wider opportunity for the occu pational displaced and the mi nority group member rests ulti mately, as do all of our ambi tions for higher economic life, upon the ability of the economy to grow. f. This Labor Day we can find satisfaction that our govern ment, this Administration and the Congress, have been success ful in enacting legislation such as the Temporary Extended Un employment Compensation Act, the new Minimum Wage Law. the Area Redevelopment Act, improved Social Security, and the Housing Act that contributes to the economic welfare of all of our people. .The guide-posts to the further and greater progress we seek are these: Wage and price policies that contribute to expansion without impairing our competitive pos ture in, world markets; great productivity from a wise use of scientific discovery and the ex ertion of dedicated individual ef fort; the proper utilization of in creased resources for the fulfill ment of urgent national needs; statesmanship in collective bar gaining that acknowledges the public interest. We can well earn what we well need in America. In setting the goal of our soci ety at the realization of human dignity, we reach for the highest of stars and seek the outer limits of human capability. In this, now as always the new world for the spirit, the labor of free men Is both the reward and the way. John F. Kennedy President of Pennsylvania) is here and at his bedside regularly.
