A friend of mine, who was here tonight, she thought that she had failed. This past November, in her visit to Poughkeepsie - not Poughkeepsie, Pittsburgh - friends of hers that she knew well, and they were a little bit down because of the same seeming recession. One friend had worked for 27 years for Jones & Laughlin, the great big steel firm of our country. In the months of September and October they let out 4,000 workers. He had to put in three more years - three years and two months - to complete a 30-year service with the firm. After 30 years he could retire, a very good, I would say, retirement fund. But he also had six more years to go for his Social Security, and then about 4,000 more, and then it was rumored in the plant that they’re going to close that plant. She reminded him of the use of imagination, which he had used successfully in her previous visit to Pittsburgh, where he laughed - all those things would have happened anyway. She reminded him of six distinct requests on his part that he thought he could not realize; everyone came to pass, she reminded him.1186 ¶4
