The sign. all point to an early spring
With its usual quota of birds tha sing
Aad the swelling buds of the elm and larch
And the tax headhe on the Idea of March.
From this and that strology shark
I learn that the cropswill beat the mark,
And the stan are aet for a busy stork.
Jim Byrnes looks for a rise in pork,
And crotchety lekes, whom fate preserves.
Can see the end of the oil reser",es
And devotees of the crystal bal
Are sure of & German collapse by fall.
By signs aId tokens the seero and sages
Profe to pM-read historey' pages;
But me, I'll stick to the weather thing:

(WITH APOLOGIES TO KIPLING)
The Japs mew up the old pagoda
Looking eastward to the sea.
And the Burma girl ain't sittin'
In the place she uead to be.
For the wind, that's in the palm trees
Is a flying, screaming hell
And the temple bells ain't ringin'
'Case there ain't Io temple bels.
Come ye back ye Yankee By.rlI
Come ye back to Mandalay,,
Where the Jap machine guns spray,
Can't you hear the children screamia'
From Rangoon to Mandalay?

Where the "yellow bellies" play
And the "Rus boom up like thunder

For takin' their husband's pay.

EFFICIENCY
One m.orning, in rather a tongh-sounding
voice, the foreman was reprimanding one of
the helpers for not charging material used
each day. "Charge the material used each
day, we can't make any money if material
slips by uncharged. This is a T and M job,
CHARGE the MATERIAL." That night the
helper's time-slip read omething like this:
Construction: a bours.
Material: Two San1 inch holes.

One of our dearly beloved Brothers died
and appeared before St. Peter for sentence.
St. Peter said, "Though your work was very
good en earth, and there are no black marks
against you. I must setence you to hell, as
ther is no more room inheaven."
"'St Peter,
Our worthy Brother replie,
all my working life and dounuithe part when
I didn't work, I have been told of the wonders
of heaven where the streets were paved with
gold, and milk and honey flows. Now won't
you piease give me Just a fifteensninute pass
into that heaRenly paradise and let mn see
lor myself lust what I'm
missing?'
So St. Peter being a Just guy let the
Brother bare his pass. He had Just got
through the gates when he met a couple of
Brother wire Jerker. who started totell
him of the wonderful lighting effects In
when our Brother interrupted to say.,
heaven,
I have no time for idle chatter, I Just have
a few minutes between busses, I am reportng
to a big Job in hell. The devil is going to
re-wire all bades and therell be overtime
double time for Saturevery day and double
day and Sunday, lots of wine, women aid
song for them that likes it and pay day every
dy. With that the Brother walked on and
pretty soon he noticed groups of five or 10.
then 50 and 10 rushing for the gate, As he
hod now been in heaven for 10 minutes. he
said, "Time is getting short. Guess I had bettmr get over to the gate and see what the
rush is abot," St. Peter met him at the gate
and said. "There have ben a great many
wire Jerker. asking for tra.f.ers; seems like
there is a rumor the devil is going to re-wire
all hell, and ao there now being lots of room
But our worthy

IN THE NATION'S CAPITAL
A "rier-rat" went to Washintn., D. C.,
on a busiless and sight-seeing trip. On his
return his friends asked him for his opinion
of Washington.
'Welh," said the "river-tat" 'Washington
reminds me of the Mississmppi river during
the flood season, "What about the people?"
his friend, asked again. With a silly grin.
the "river-rat' said, "The people remind me
of a bunch of autsthat have Just about overloaded a large log in the middle of the flooded
Mississippi, and each ant Is conceited enough
to think that it is steering the log down the
river."

LAST WILL AND TESTAMENT
An electrical contractor was dying Rs he
called In a lawyer and began to dictate hig
will. He said, my euity In my car shall go
to my son; he will now have to go to work
to keep up the paymnts,. My bank balance
shall go to my wife; she can eplain the overdraft. Give my goodwill to the supply houses.
they took some awful chances on me. Gie
my tools and equipment to the junk man;
he's had his eyes on them for years. Lastly,
I'd like six of my creditors to be my pallbearers, they have carried me so long they

A merican labor has been in the inlteunational family of labor subie it.s,eetiIn as a stroi.g, irganized uit. Whorl
this is sa,.h however, it should le fully
nderstood that it has lev
hbeen. an.
orthodox socialst nation, nor has the
American,
labor
,1Ovnient been an ortho
dox socialist iovemeni. Ar erican labor's
ntcin ational sis has first been based on
nlatihnalismn. It helieves in interration.Il
cooperation but. not the loss of identity

other countries. It warms gen.rously to
the sentiment that
bonm.
there is a
pro
foundly deep, uniting w
orking
peoplc, as
Lincoln said, but it is never warm to the
socialist idea that thereshol..d be a.n
mternational union of labor which tubes
p.restige and authoiity away from11 the
indivdual nations, An eriean labor has
been right in this bleause all events of
the presen. era indicate the retentli.I
of strong nationalis.

that unless that proposal was adopted
by the commission Mr. Robinson and I
woldd be forced to refrin from signing the report and we would submit
a minority report to the Plenary Counel. We proceeded to argue this question for days and in addition to conferring with my ass.ciate, Mr. Robinson, and with my A. F. of L. associates,
I also had , conference with Andrew

working people of the United States
from anr attempt to lower the American standards of life and work. After
the die had been cast by nay statement
to the commission, they adopted the
principle by practically a unanimous

"In addition to the draft convention
wbich provided for the organization
and operation of an International Labor
Bu.reau .and cor .re.ce.., there ws
drawn ip a declaration of labor principles to be inserted in the peace treaty.
These principles constituting a bill of
rights for labor were
to
write into
the treaty an extraordinary re.ognition of certain common principles of
relation between men in the affairs
of daily life. The btsis for this charter
was the principles which the Americanl Fedr,alion of Labor submitted to
the Inter-Allied Conference in Loudhon

principles to be approved by the coun.tries signing the treaty were;
"In right and in fact the labor of a

"The
c.niiissi.n designated Wash-

under the treaty and adopted an

on March 24.
'As soon as the work of the commission was fnished our American

"Without attempting to give a further outlin if the whole p roposal of

to quote here the preamble as it was

"The high contrteling parties, recogaizig that the well-binig, physical,

In a world beset by turmoil andi confusion it is doubtless a fact that th, bewildrrment among the Electrical Workers

that there are certain beacons of reasoning to be found. Each of us has been

In the early days of applied electricity,
Ohm's law was found to be right, but as
late as 1910, there was .ome question as
to whether Ohm's law applied to alternating current circuits. The point lhe writer
wishes to make Liea is, that we did not
have under obsevation all the other eIements in a circuit, and therefore, we
falsely concluded at that time, that Ohm's
law was wrong. However, when the other
phenomena of the circuit were brought
nlder elose observation, it was at once
reestablishod that Ohm\' law was valid
srid correct. Mind you. Dr. Ohm never
had alternating crurent under Iirect obtion whell

neeis no interpretations by highly paid
commentators nor any ftree rIf propa

Now let us refer again to the work
of Vilfredo Pareto. Ec onoists iof the
abstract school, commonly known as
orthodox, have made the mistake of ap
plying economic laws asdd sone early
students who tried to ptplly Ohn's law

NOT BYERREAD ALONE
Mark well that one does no. live by
bread alone. nor does tihe psychotogiaI
and enotional appeal if sant statesm en
offer a good substitute for aIell-balanced
mnea. A quotation Drmonela of the ,oIu,,es of 'The

help to elucidate som ewhat here:

wherea, the subject class is less aware

self-analysis discloses that we soietmires
permit S,,n ti..its to obscure our highel
interests.

wholly unaware of the nature of the true

utilize these forces in a social economic
malhine. Should this happen, it may
leave us far behind and thereby permit

It is quite interesting to note that the
works if Pareto have been used in for,ogn chancelleries and also have beeu
wvidly usedamong statesm en throughout
the .orld; yes, even in the United States.
Hence, it is not unusual to find seine
forms of government which praise tile
works of Pearto, while on the other hand,

0 THE Christian the goals of post
war planning can be stated simply.
TThey are two. They are Christ and
bread, But I do not wish to hide behind
such an over-simplified statenieat of objectives. I propose to break it down. see
what is in it, and hold it up before you,
Moreover, it will be necessary to reessential part of the
member that an
machinery to achieve these objectives is
itself included in the objectives. Please
do not think that I am getting tangled
up in my logic. What I an actually
saying is that an important part of the
means is actually the end. I shall explain
as
we go along.
To the Christian the first objective
in postwar planning is the acceptance
of Christ as the King of the world.
Around this notion the Christian ar
ranges his thoughts and on it and on it
alone rests his hopes for world order.
What is this notion? It is that men
accept and be guided by the concept of
society that God is the Father of all
men, and that all men are brothers
through His Son, Jesus Christ. Standing on this solid position, the Christian
finds real substance to the expression,
dignity of man. To him it m.ean.s something, and that something is nothing less
than this, that human beings in every
part of the world, have the same stature
in the sight of God that he has, are as
dear to Christ and are as capable of
eternal life as he is, because they are
with him brothers and sisters of the
Elder Brother Jesus Christ.
BROTHERHOOD
OF
MAN
From this doctrine the Christian expects. each to treat every other not
merely as someone to he reckoned with
because he is stronger or perhaps to be
plundered because he is weaker. but as
brother through the Sonship of
his own
Jesus Christ. To establish this goal is
the first task in the Christian's thinking. Surely he is not waiting for it to
be established in full outline before he
will do anything else, but reasonably
he puts it in his thinking as the first
goal to be striven toward with all zeal
and energy. I may add perhaps that
there will not be much debate about the
need of this first goal, particularly with
those who insist that it alone should be
pursued and nothing else lone. I do not
belong to that school of thought and
therefore will move into the second objective, and advocate certain means to
both the first and
be employed to attain
the second.
The second objective I call bread. Of
course I am using the term as a symbol.
By bread I mean all the things that are
necessary for man's physical life and
comfort. My thesis is that they should
be produced in sufficient quantity and
be so distributed that no one need go
without. In other words, the grand total
should be enough to go around, and it
should be justly parcelled out.
But someone will say: That is socialism. Now, frankly, I am not much concerned about names. It is what is be,eath them that matters. Besides, it

a
By the Most Reverend FRANCIS J. HAAS, Bishop of Grand Rapids
Vision of
just and stable world promulgated by eminent cleric
may oume as a distinct surprise to many
to know that Pope Pius XI in 1931 declared that an ecoenomy fulfills its true
purpose only when it supplies all the
people with All the goods which natural
resources and technical skills can furnish. There is no other limit to be set
on production of goods and services.
The whole passage from the Encyclical
Forty Years After is:
"For then only will the social economy be rightly established and attain
its purposes when all and each are
supplied with all the goods that the
resources of nature, techand
wealth
nical achievement, and the social orlife can fureconomic
ganization of
nish." (Forty I'eas After, paragraph
75.)
In a word, the Holy Father says:
use all the material and human resources
you have, and stop using then, only when
the people say they do not need any
more goods or sel-dces. Now we in the
United States cane closer to that goal
in 1943 than we ever did before in
history. The volume of goods turned out
than in
was nearly three-fou.-ths.mo.e
the previous peak year of 1929. It is
common knowledge that unemlployment
is now almost entirely wiped out, and
that we have attained a virtually full
employment economy.
CAN'T IT fiE DONE AGAIN?
This of course was done and is being
done under the stimulus of patriotism
and comm..ion defense. Many are asking,
however, if it tan be done during war
why can it not be done in peace? It will
take planning, and the giving up of some
of our former procedures and even pet
theories, but the very necessity of things
will compel As to do it.
Let no one say that the need of full
production and the need of full employment have.nothing to do with the rIobI venr
lems of postwa reconstruction.
ture to say that they have almost everything to do with it,
What are these prohbems? I pass over
sone of the 1echnical1 ones, such als
taxation. war debts. plant conversin.,
and liquidatio. of war contracts, not
because they are unimportant or in any
sense to be minimized. Nevertheless.
they are secondawy to those problaems
directly affecting the great mass of the
people, who, unless they are dealt with
as people--and I say it with the greatest hsitatian and almost terror-will
see to it that it will not make much
difference whether or not the others are
solved, Conversely, if people are dealt
with humanly, justly, and Christly. there
is every reasonable hope that they themsolves will help to work out the instruments to help themselves. After all,
this is the creed of democracy. No less
important, it is basic in the creed of
Christianity that every human being
has a rational soul, endowed by his
Creator to make intelligent free choice,
and placed under divine command to do
for others as he would have them do unto
himn
With this said, I turn to a consideration of the enm.nous task ahead, now
and at the end of hostilities, involving
of millions of human
the lives of
beings. I shall use the word right in the
Christian sense and refer only to that
class of rights which a person has to
certain things because he is a child of
God. Before all else, the retuning sodier as well as every able-bodied civilian has the right, that must be guratlteed, to have a job in a useful occupalian
throughout his productive life. H, has
the right ia city or on farll, to corn
pensati. n sufficient to secure hin and
his family adequate food, clothing. sheland in addition to
ter, and medical c are,
anl increasing share of the goods and
comforts of rn'ogress directly in protion as they increase in volume. Moleover, he has the right to security against
sickness, accidents,
the vicissitudes of
unemployment and old ago. Still more,
he has the right to work and live As a
free man under a system that xlill Ier
mit him a voice in determining the conditions under which he works from day
to day. less than these things a mlan's
stature
as a Christian will not let him
accept, If through force he does accept
less, the very image of Christ in his
soul is disfigured and outraged. On the
other hand, if no man and his dpenideats are to be denied the full minimum,
can there be any question ihat Ihere
must be full and abundant production
of goods?
THE MEANS
Now let us consier the means that
are proposed to get this r-sult. coughly.
they fall into two categories, that of
private initiative and that of a demunratically organized society. By "private initiative" I do not mean the legitinate
stirrings in every man's bosom to get

Gets backing
from I. B. E. W. local union.
Long step in advance
Famed Tower of C(oillt Unliverily
at ItMaca, N. Y.
ORNELL Universily, one of tih g Iat
institutions of learning in the United
C States, has established a School
of Industrial and Labor Relations. The
school will be spm.sr.ed by the S arte
of New York by act of the ,gislature. A
temporary board of trusteo5 will soon ble
named to wake a full report on the ,ulriculum and other relative nmatteis. Thl
school will be in operation in 1945.
The temporary board of trustees wilI

inc. The State of Now York will ht rPresented by the president of Cornell, the
chairana
and counsel of the Ives Committee and the com missionerof educatiLn of
the State of New York.
WHY OF THE SCHOOL
Chairman Ives has issued a statement
describing the origit of the idea and the
motive behind it:
"Unlike any other educational instilu
tiao
heretofore
existing anywhert in he
United States, this school will he open LI
representatives of both labor and mmawement or to anyone eise who mlay wish to
enter. All will attend the cane elasses
under the same instructors, all will bE
faced with common problems and mutual
experiences. This very association in itself
should go far toward increasing moutud
unde.rstasnding and respect.
"This school should help greatly in developing better labor leadership and more
responsible labor unions. It should help
no less in inmproving management personnet who deal with employees."
A tentative draft of the neasure establishing the school sets forth the objectives
in the following language:
"It is neLessary that understanding of
industrial and labor relations be advanced,
that more effective cooperation among
genemployers and employees .ore
and
oral recgniti ion of their mutual rights,
obligations and duties inder the laws
pertaining to industrial and labor relations be achieved; that meanis for en-.
eo.r.aging the growth of mutual respect
and greater responsibility onathe part of
both employers and employees be developed, and that fidustrial efficiency
through the analysis oI problems relating
to emtplayinngt be inltwed."

a great challenge but I ant convinced

Set it, the second place over the past
15 years there has been a genuine trend
toward lower retail rates for utility services. For the last half-decade the industry
has been particularly subject to i..cr.s-.
pressures

from numerous external
forces tending to induce rate reductions.
Pironinent among these factors are:

of the tube, The ability of a gas or va;or
give off light and other tadaitit energ'y
because of the fow oIf elect..ons through it
involves a somewhat intricate theory of
the action oi atois, and it is not altogether necessary to go into this pIr tictinr
aeton in order to
lnderstamd the action
and opera.ion of these tubes.
TYPES
There are several types of discharge
lamps, some of which have been available
fora long time. Among the more familiar
if this type of laImp az, the .eO.., m. rcury, sodium and argon. With its inner
coating removed the fluorescent
.
lam. is
m(,re1y a glass tube, containlang a dl.p
of mercury and a small amount, of argon
gas and its eketrodes in each ,dl, and in
principle is quite similar to the old
Cooper He..itt mercury vapor lamp.
In the Lluorescent lamp the elements
have ,en adjusted so. as to produce very
little direct light, but are so arranged to
erow d as much energy as pIos..ble

in the regiol of this wave length. Sonie
liea of the econireit operation of fl u..respent Imnps, when their energy is co..,eelted into the proper' av, length, can
be gaibed fromn the following graph which
hans been plotted for a 15 walt I' hiaIp.
(See sketches Nos, 2 and 3)
In attempting to explain the action
of fluorescents and in oider not to go too
dee p bite the theory involved, let Is say
that the action of materials which do
fluores'e under the a ion
.. o. ultraviolet
adLinn is simply that such material
absorb energy
.
at one ...av. Legth ard
readiates it at a longer wave length
in much the s.ame .anner that one ]ny
say that a transformer absorbs wattag, at
one voltage and current and delivers this
DIwer at a different voltage and current.
The c-radiated energy oF Iluorescent
powders spreads over a considera-le
range or continuous band of visible wave
lengths. Thus we are able to prodtce
lamps giving off various colors dependmig upon the particular phosphor powdher
with which the tube is coated.

By JOSEPH E. ROACH, L.. U. No. 39, Cleveland, Ohio
OME 40 years ago last October, I
was inducted into Local 39. It ~a
S mysfirst ,eperiencein a tradeunio,
but not in the labor anovem..ent-three
years prior to that time I had been initi
ated in the Brotherhood of Railroad
Trainmen, a new lodge just organized
for trainmen
of the Pennsylvania
Railroad.
Meeting with an accident, I found a
job at the Bell Telephone Company, and
shortly afterwards (three months, to be
exact) Local 39 was born. There was a
mixed local here at that time, and with
an independent telephone company building here, which brought many linemen
into the city, they wanted a local of their
own. They applied for , ehartr and as
of July 1, 1899, Local 89 began to function.
They set out to organize the three on,panies and needless to
mention,
met wtlh
stubborn resistance. The companies used
every artifice knownto stifle the union,
but they were determined to mganize the
new telephone company and did. After
Fought for the
cause and saw victory come. A
pleasant valedictory
a strike of several days. they won the
eight-hour day and a pay increase.
FEW OLD TIMERS LEFT
There are only one or two of those
charter memabers left. Yes, they're gonebut their work was not in vain. The old
grim
eaper has thinned out the ranks
of the ohd timers. Time and the ravages
of disease have carried them way. but
those of us left have grateful renoembrailees of them and the fine example of
loyalty and devotion to the cause they
had instiled in their hearts, to pIromote
better living conditions for themselves and
their families.
Perhaps we should not grieve too nmeh,
for many of you lived long enough to
know that the foundation you started
would be successfully carried out and the
education you disseminated to the mn
following the trade, saw unionism rise to
greater heights and better conditions fo,
the men who toil and their families.
HAPPY CHANGES
S. now, entering the field of retirement, it does make one happy to see the
change that has taken place; labor has at
last taken her place alongside industry.
and industry has come to the realization
that labor can no longer be the pawn
of selfish ..nd disgruntled employers, for
in this day, the right to bargain co]
/ectively is now recognized by law as is
the right of labor to choose those whom
it wishes to represent it. It is a power
delegated to the labor leaders by the
ranlk and file, and it is imperative that
they see that they are not betrayed ani
that they themselves do not become autocratic and abusive of the privilege assigned to thn,?. These changes I have lived
to see, and if I have contributed anything
o the cause, natr'ally I am happy, but
now for
.
.e, it ia over--ani not so easy
a matter, for I anu confronted with conficting nmotions: one, a feeling of relief
the other, If deep reluctance. I realize
fully that I shall never again enjoy the
close intimate contacts of my fellow
workers at the Municipal Light Plant,
and I extend to them, one and all,. my
heartfelt thanks and gratitude for their
mllany courtesis their kindness, andi best
of all. their respect. I would like to name
each and every one of you here, but to
do so would a!most be profane, lest I
overlook seione .. . also the boys of
Local 38, and the shopmen at the 41st
Street plant for their many kind favors.
Fellows, you were really swell to me.
Good-bye to you all!
IN TRIBUTE
I will close with this little poem.- with
apologies to Wilbur Nesbit
'As I roan] here and there e..e

May I always find friends just as true,
May Dame Fortune in kindness ,y daily

Florida on
Washington, D. C., April, 1943
Labor unionists in Florida are up in arms
Make
against a proposed amendment to the
state constitution outlawing the closed
shop in Florida. This amendment will have to be ratified by the people. The gist of the amendment is as
follows:
"The right of persons to work shall not be denied or
abridged on account of membership or nonmembership in any labor union, or labor organization; provided, that this clause shall not be construed to deny
or abridge the right of employees by and through a
labor organization or labor union to bargain collectively with their employer."
It is known that many states are watching the
struggle in Florida with acute attention. If the reactionaries in Florida win, many states will undertake to
put this same kind of amendment in practice throughout the land.
This, of course, is a curious development in the
general attack on labor in these United States. It
comes from people who spout all the time about free
enterprise and private initiative. What they mean
by these terms is, of course, their free enterprise and
their private initiative, and the slapping of restrictions
on labor to an extreme degree. The fact that they
want to make this a Constitutional amendment rather
than a law is a part of the general strategy to catch
labor off guard in a war year and make labor cooperation extremely difficult by Constitutional act.
To be sure, the closed shop does not mean the union
shop. Historically, labor has never stood for the coercive closed shop, but labor certainly should have
the right to enter into voluntary closed shop agreements if employers wish such an agreement. Many
instances arise in the industrial field when the closed
shop is a better instrumentality for production than
the looser form of union shop or the open shop. To
prohibit the closed shop, therefore, is only a piece of
chicanery which should be stopped at the polls.
Health
Insurance
Health insurance is taking the center of
the stage in the great national structure
for a better Social Security Bill. Labor is
backing a bill in Congress known as the Wagner-
Murray-Dingell Bill which projects a program of universal health insurance, involving medical care and
hospitalization. Reports from labor and other sections of the underlying population indicate that the
people are generally for a health insurance program.
Monsignor John A. Ryan, long known for his sturdy
support of common causes, has this to say about health
insurance:
"Although millions of people who are gravely suffering from unnecessary sickness or from insufficient
medical attention, can obtain adequate care only
through a system of public health insurance, that
proposal is stubbornly opposed by powerful agencies.
"Nevertheless, a health insurance act could be
framed which would not injure any legitimate group
or interest and at the same time would safeguard
reasonable individual liberty. The most important
provisions to attain these ends would be: first, restriction of the compulsory features of the act to persons with incomes below a certain level, say $3,000
per year; second, full freedom for voluntary associated effort, such as group health projects and cooperative hospitalization. When organized groups
can guarantee to their members at least as large benefits as those offered by the public system, they should
be authorized to operate autonomously. This arrangement would exemplify that fundamental principle of
democracy which dictates that the state should never
do anything for the citizens which they can do as
well for themselves. Incidentally, it would go far to
refute the charge that the health insurance system
involved 'regimentation'."
Defeat National
Service Act
John P. Frey, president of the
Metal rTrades Department, American Federation of Labor, had his
finger on the pulse of American public opinion when
he made his notable address over the Blue Network
late in February. Mr. Frey hit out emphatically
against the proposed National Service Act and showed
conclusively that the National Service Act has no
need to increase production because production has
already reached fabulous levels; it would not prevent
strikes, because England under much better labor
conditions has had strikes with a National Service
Act. Mr. Frey said in part:
"There have been strikes, there have been stoppages of work on vital war production. But the essential, all important fact is that over 99% per cent
of production has been carried on without any interruption through strikes. The less than one-third of
one per cent of interruption has evidently stimulated
the call for labor conscription or served as an excuse.
Is the authority and resourcefulness of our Government so weak that it cannot deal effectively with the
less than one per cent of labor which has been recalcitrant?'* * *

'Trhere are many vital questions to hi asked if
those who are advocating conseription of Anmerican
labor. To whom would it apply? Who would administer such a law, and who would make the rules and
regulations affecting those conscripted? Would it give
the military Complete control over civilian industrila
conditions, and should it be the military, would they
set np lhe hoards to hear the complaints, the grievances which dlvelop in industry? is it the intention
to militarize labor?
"Ifr labor conscription would be admiliistcred Ily a
civilian Federal agency, wolhl lhabr be given adgquote representation? What would be (done to c'orrect
t Cfin(iusthe pi'ese nt Federal confusio and confih
trial polity now bedeviling employer and employee
alike?
Is there reason to belie'e that militarv control of
ivlian lahor is advisaide in this hand of free instltutions, or that a bureaucracy centered in Washington can accomplish better results tihan thsse ecuid
through ihe splendid cooperation already est aliaished
between management and labor?-
The Truman Committee of the
United States Senate has brought a
new note of policy into Congressinnal action. in a time of great change and great
confusion, it undertook by investigation to ascertain
the facts and to give those facts wlith attedant
r,,COinmlndatioons courageously.
Laurel Wreath
for Truman
Its latest report performs an unusual seL'ice by
turining tihe face of the committee hardA against a
National Service Act. The commiltee points out that
the proposed national service legislation is a makeshift which tries to achieve results which could be
mori effectivelv attained "by other means that would
do less violence to individual fredom."
The committee's report also rightfully appraises
our mniacle of production during wartime, but points
out that now is the time for tightening Luptby the
elimbtationr of waste and the avoidance of further
hbundo's.
It malkes a plea for a sound civilian economy. It
points out that "if the home e(nonomy is permitted
to weaken and Iose the resiliency necessa3 fror quick
anid suceCssCfl ConversionI to peacetimeu otCupatiolls,
it will not he able to provide employment for soldier.s
and war workers when they are roleased fCorn their
preseni tasks."
c f
The committee differs sharply with the policy
the War Department which wishes to tcoutntenance
at the present time idle plants. The co mmittee points
ttendoeny of workerqs to quit emouit that there ia
ployvment in war industries because plants are idle.
Civilian goods should be manufactured ait once to
reemploy these people so that we will not have wartime unemployment. This will furnish a sound basis
for an elficient passage from war to peacetime
production.
There is a stirring in the field of public
opinn that looks hopeful. Out in San
Diego, a great war boom city, a new
daily has been launched which has the backing of all
labor groups.
A natiola conmmission has been set up by the Unmyersity of thicago to make a study of the frieedom of
the press.
Pressing the
Press
The
h.1/b. /ic Moth1y has announced a
conlest for
tie best article on Ihe freedom of the mess.
In short. Americans are not supine unlder the
presenit news papi r situation where canined news and
editorials are purveyed by corporation-cmitrolled
press on a widespread scale.
Inevitable, we believe, is the ultimate foutnding if
a great Iatb daily hin the city of Washington by trade
unions. There is 1io health in a situation where rows
is a one-sied proposioh)n, and labor tPlust see to it
that the infer mation that is daily received is aeMcnate,
correct and out xvritt en with a bias for iig buiIsiness.
(harles E. Iledaux, who for years Iried to
fastent a icilous speed-up system on American workers, has commnitrod sicide. lie was
inprisonedslaid about to be tried for treason to his
adopted country. Not long ago he swam into ihternational prominence by his apparent friendship for
the Duke and Duchess or Windsor.

Bedsex
Ile had a palace near Berclhtesgade, Hi tler's lhid,away. He was close to the Nazi higher-ups. His selfinflicted death and disappearance are important only
as writing finis to a career which aroused bitter olposition of the workers of all countries of the world.
Bedaux was the symbol of those forces in industry
who utterly ignore humanity. They undertook to util-
ize mechanical measures to squeeze the last drop ol
cllelgy and ie from employees so that prolits Couli
be swolhlen, so that palaces could he built i ni ou ntain
fastnesses fr their own pleasure.
When Bedaux ran afoul of the law, the Bedaux
Company, inc., New York, began to sing a different
tune. Albert Ramond, the president of the Bedaax
Company. quickly tried to adjust his company's literature and propaganda to fit the new order in America's wa-s. ]is latest speech made a plea for htlbor
management cooperation in order that full prrodu-
tion might be achieved.

Anderson became an expert in the field of
collective bargaining when for eight
years she worked as an organizer for
the National Women's
Trade Union
League. Miss Anderson's success story
is indeed'one of note. She came to the
United States at the age of 16. a girl all
alone, fromn her native country, Sweden,
determined to make a livelihood. Then
because of her great efforts to help
working women everywhere, she became
the first labor woman in the United
States to be made head of a Federal
agency.
VALUE TO UNION
HOW DOES IT FUNCTION?
,Just how does the bureau work anr
what does it accomplish ?
It investigates and reports on the pobemls and conditions of employed woIne
in al types of work
industrial,

professional. It formulates standards and
policies of women as rage earters to
guniatantee them lair play and safe conditions of employment.
The Women's Bureau is interested in
all women of the labor force-young and
old, single and married.
WHAT HAS IT ACHIEVED?
We'll brugin with World War I when the
bureau was set up. It made investpgatiiiii
and
.eonim.1dations
to promnote the best
use of women in war work. It set up
standards on hours, wages, and working
tend tion to safeguard women and guide
employers.
Then ii tihe yea's of peace the Women's

get the best possiblle wage scale

Organizatio, is the safeguard for everyone

against rggressors.
Therefare all workers must be barded together to show the other Crganizatinns our

union obtain the best pussibl

one to protect everyo ne's own intlrest agtnst

The great law of Christian life is Christ's law of love of
God and love oftour neighbor, The New Year summons us again
to what should be our sacred duty, the fulfillment of that divine
law. Like God's great mercy, Christian love is boundless; it
extends to all our fellowmen. It does not ask their nationality,
race or social position.
Inspired by this magnanimous concept, the Constitution of
our beloved country protects the personal dignity and the
equality before the law of every citizen. Hence racial anta
onism or lack of mutual respect of man for man offends both
the precepts of the Almighty and the traditions of our beloved
nation. Petty bigotry, of whatever kind, contradicts the teachings of Christ and the guarantees of the Constitution.
It is the prayer of all men of good will that discord and
intolerance, so alien both to the Gospel of Christ and to the
democratic spirit of our country, may never gain a foothold in
this land. By fidelity to its own heritage of broad understanding
and harmony, our country, while fully respecting the worthy
traditions of other nations, shall continue to be a blessed example to all the peoples of the earth.
