American Codes

Famous quotes containing the words american and/or codes:

    First in booze, first in shoes, and last in the American League.
    —Administration in the State of Miss, U.S. public relief program (1935-1943)

    ... until both employers’ and workers’ groups assume responsibility for chastising their own recalcitrant children, they can vainly bay the moon about “ignorant” and “unfair” public criticism. Moreover, their failure to impose voluntarily upon their own groups codes of decency and honor will result in more and more necessity for government control.
    Mary Barnett Gilson (1877–?)
