No man would expect that the unskilled laborer would live in as fine a house as the skilled laborer or as the business man lives in. Nor would you expect his home located where the property is higher. We have unskilled work to do. The native American and the earlier immigrant will not perform unskilled labor. and the presentday immigrant who performs unskilled labor is absolutely necessary to advance us in industry. It is a selfevident truth that no man can exercise any labor. however low it may. be. without creating opportunity for the labor of other men. No man ever Injures labor by working.
