Another good reason for the expe
diency of the time-limit law is the
opportunity thereby afforded for giv
ing work to the unemployed who
need it and who are seeking it, often
times vainly, because of the fact that
many of the employed are wearing
their lives away over the night lamp,
and gradually sinking— sinking—in
to premature graves! Is this what
you call constitutional liberty (!)
for the employed? And has the un
employed man or woman no right to
be given an opportunity to earn an
honest living? And what is the
probable ultimate destiny of this un
fortunate part of humanity who can
not get work? They must either be
a burden on relatives, many of
whom are but poorly paid, tramp
over the country and beg, steal for a
living, or else go to the poorhouse.
