NOT A STRIKE AGAINST THE GOVERNMENT

THE American Federation of Labor yields to no
group in loyalty to our democratic institutions.
Our patriotism has been tested and proven too
frequently to be questioned. 1t has long been a
principle of the American Federation of Labor
that unions of workers doing the work of the gov
ernment must forego the right of strike and seek
all redress through legislation We have even
approved extension of that principle to the postal
service which is not governmental function.
However, when the government enters into the
field of business in competition with private un-
dertakings, it is no longer performing functions
of government When the government has under
it's direction SO per cent of the construction work
under way in this country, it does not make sense
to claim that immunity from strike can be extend
ed to this great field Private contractors are
available and contracts could be let so that con-
struction could be done under normal conditions.
1t is serious situation when the government can
by it's control over credit replace private initiative
in business field and as manager of business
claim the privileges of government. The result is
to deny wage-earners right that is essential to
freedonl-the right to strike. This is the fact that
must not be confused with those strikes and law
essness directed against relief agencies and relief
work But even persons on relief should not be
denied the right of protest and petition for relief
and those rights should not be barren Workers
and the unemployed are not responsible for un-
employment. Neither are they in position to
prevent it. They should not be Inundated, forced
to endure unnecessary hardships or denied the
rights of citizens.
What is needed is leadership in planning to get
the wheels of industry turning so that all may
have in abundance the things we need for comfort
able living. The technical ability and material re-
sources are at hand. What is lacking is leadership
of citizens so that understanding cooperation may
begin the tasks of progress.
The American Federation Of Labor is ready to
jon with employers and technicians to develop
the ways and means of such cooperation

27,5OO,OOO WORKERS COVERED BY
UNEMPLOYMENT COMPENSATION

July 1 was an important day for the millions OF
working men and women in the United States
who are deprived of employment and consequently
of the right to earn living for themselves and
their families by their labor. On that date the job
insurance laws of Illinois and Montana were in
augurated, bringing the program of unemployment
compensation established by the Social Security
Act into full operation in all parts of the country
in 48 States, the District of Columbia and Hawaii.
According to the Social Security Board there
are now over 27 100000 workers in business and
industry covered by the nationwide unemployment
compensation program The extent of this pro-
lection against destitution given to the unemploy-
ed workers is visoned by the Boards statement
that during the II months ended May 80 some
$5SO,OO0,O0O n benefits were distributed to in
sured workers in the beneft-paying States" the
payments averaging "about $11 per week for to-
tai unemployment and about $3.50 per week for
partial unemployment" Although these payments
seem to be altogether too small, they may be re-
garded as beginning with the probability that
more adequate benefits will be provided in the
future.
Commenting upon this rapid development of
unemployment compensation in the United States,
r. Gordon Wagenet, Director of the Bureau OF
Unemployment Compensation, Social Security
Board, stated:
'In speed and comprehensiveness, the estab-
lshment of unemployment compensation programs
presents record of achievement unparalleled in
the field of social legislation Before consideration
of the Social Security Act in 1885, only one State
--WiscOnsin--had an unemployment compensation
law. Today this kind of protection for wage earn
ers is fully effective throughout the Nation Dur
