Post-WWII - USA Industrial Reconversion Businessman’s Statement. ca Dec45 17:56:43 F.C. Crawford of National Association of Manufacturers / NAM in CU speaks to camera (SOF): “There can be full productivity only when men are free to start businesses, risking their money in hope of gain. When workers are free to work for whom they wish & when & where they wish; when management can contract for a fair days wage & workers can contract for fair wages for their work. We are in the midst of serious & complex problems, widespread strikes & bickering, misunderstandings & intolerance and overall danger of inflation.
