Last night from a shell hole, I saw your sky . I figured right then they had told me a lie. Had I taken time to see things You made, I'd have known they weren't callina a spade a spade. I wonder, God, if you'd hake my hand. Somehow, I feel that You wi ll understand. Funny I had to come to this hellish place, Before I had time to see your face. Well, I guess there isn't much more to say, But I 'm sure glad, God, I met you today. I guess the "Zero Hour" will soon be here, But I'm not afraid since I know you're near. The Signal r Well, God, I'll have to go. I like you lots, this I want you to know, Look, now, this will be a horrible fight, Who knows, I may come to your house tonight. Though I wasn't friendly to you before, I wonder, God, if you'd wait at your door. Look, I'm crying! Me, shedding tears! I wish I had known you these many years. Well, I have to go now, God, Good-bye ! Strange, since I met you I'm not afraid to die. . • -. (Copy of poem, found on a Marine who had paid the highest price for a free world.

Robertson Reuben B. R ob ert on Executi\ e \'ic e- r ident of The Cham pi n P a~ er and Fibr .ompanv. and Ch irman [ the P romotion Committee of the Industrial C nferen e, opened the meeting i'i-ith the followino- rem a rL : " \\-ith thi" meeting the outhern Conf ren e on H uman ~ Relation round , out it· twenty-fifth yea r. It completes a quarter of a centur. of effort to place indu t rial relations in he outh on a hi her and ounder plane. 0\·er the e t 'i\-enty-fiye year 171·e have had an average attendance of 300 and each e ion has consumed four days. ' Our friend in the Indu trial Engineeri ng fi eld would say that we have devoted 1200 man day annu ally fo r twenty­five year ,, in other word , a total of 30,000 man days . A very natu ral que tion would be, has it been worth while? The an Ker ·nece ~s arily \ ould be, 'we don't know, but we hope o.' ' 'Ne can't k now definitely because the effort lays in that field of imponderables where neither scales nor yard sticks can be applied. But among other things, we can take com­fort from the fact that men of industry ha ve qeen coming to the conference in ever increasing numbers and this year record the large t attendance we have ever had. The pro­grams offered must have been info rmative and thoug_ht stimulating or the attendance record would have been dif-ferent. · " It is of interest also to know that t he publi shed reports of the conference are looked upon in the colleges of the country as con tituting an authentic sto ry of the develop­ment of Industrial Relation in tl1e South. "I am convinced that the Conference, seeking as it does for areas of agreement, not of difference, can be credited with real accompli hments. The conference ha had no de­tailed platform of principle , passes no resolutions, it ha had the objective of promoting greater rec gnition of the human side of Industrial relations. Even with such a simple ob­jective, the conference has placed its irnprin on outhern Indus r , has stimulated progr s towards higher concep­tion of industrial respon i biliti es. "All Industry .is moving int uncharter d field u h conferences will be n ed d in the futur ven rn r than in the past. "Against the suff ring and los. f human live, oc .a ion d by war, there can be n c r ~ di · tl a fully offset he Jebit .

We hav f r t ( many resort · to he trike, t the 1 c ut-wc ha v far t many ins ances of discord and 1 s hatred . " lt is easy t take the pos iti n th t .he only thing that ll 'd r f rming arc the Lh r fellow' habitb, but that attitude is n t c nsistcnt with tbe fa cts. There's fault on both sides. 'Nl ana "ment cannot indulge in the luxury f whim~ and arbitrary ~xe rci s e of authority . Labor, on the other hand mu t not ab 1 e the power that it ha acquired largely through sympath ti aLtitude of Government. "Manag ment and Lab r will have o park their preju­d ices and approach the common problems in a spiri of ob­jective fa irness . 'vVe both should look at thing micro copi­cally to be sure we get all the facts, telescopically to make sure we see facts in true perspective. We won't be discou r­aged if vve have to overcome orne obstacles. "Our di scu sions should have firm anchorage in the basic princi ples of democratic government. These were well ex­p ressed in the recent add re s made by J udge Hand to a group of newly naturalized cit izens . '\Vhat is this liberty \\'hich must lie in the hearts of men it is not the ruthle s unbridled will, it is not freed om to do as one likes; that is the denial of liberty and leads straight to its overthrow. A society in which men recognize no check upon thei r freedom oon becomes a society where freedom i the po ses ion of only a savage few. ' "The true 'spirit of liberty' is the pirit which is not too sure it is right. The spirit of liberty is the pirit which eek to understand the minds of other men, and the pirit '\vhich weighs their interests alongside its own without bias. ' Ideal­istic', yes, but a good target for men of Industry to accept and shoot at." {2) Gov. ]. M. Broughton of North Carolina wa then intro­duced by Mr. Robertson, who delivered the openino- address of the Conference. Governor Broughton made an excellent speech, which was both inst ru ctive and interesting. He re­minded us that v.rhile the wa r news from all front w·as en­couraging, y et the ca sualty list show that the advances are not being won with out cost, and that enemy resistance has not been broken, therefor e a fee ling of complacency on the home front is dange rous.
