The Thought that is ever master i
Of iron and steam and steel,

That’s how the people feel.

'Or labor with Lusty plows,.
But back of him stands the Thinker,
The elear-eyed man ^ho knqws;
For into each plow or softer.

Defense of the nation’s soul.
Back of the motors’ humming,
Back of the belts that sing
Back of the hammers’ drumming,
Back of 'the pranes that swing,
There ds the eye which scans them,
Watching through stress and
strain
This, is the heart of the nation—•
This is its soul and brain.
Might of the roaring boiler,
Force of the engine’s thrust, *
Strength of the sweating toiler—
iGreatly in these We trust
Back, of them stands our Navy
And our Army forever true
Back of them are the patriot^
Ready to die for YOU.
Back of |he industrial worker
Stands a nation forevei’ great
Now is no time for the shirker,
To picket the factory gate
We the people demand that
All shall unite and Reclaim
This is no time for organized labor
To further some selfish aim.
