ed with scorching rhetoric and the packed committee took the offensive behind Hillman. The noisy but eak left wing caved in. Murray got the assurances he de manded and "A hours later Lewis grooming a fearful swan song, surrendered the gavel.
 The upset of John L. Lewis was not the only feather in Hill mans cap. Equally great tri- umph was keeping the CIO from splitting wide open.
 Certain Communist elements operating on the rule or ruin' principle were bent on splitting the CIO if baked from winning control That would have meant chaos in the labor movement the end of any hope for AFL-CIO peace and a smashing blow to the Roosevelt Administration.
 Th,e true measure of Hillman's strategic mastery was that he tied the can to his opponent in such a deft manner that Lewis followers codld not erupt. They would have done so at the drop of the hat had Hillman given voice to one word of personal feeling against Lewis.
 But Hillman knew that person al attack was inst whaat Lewis wanted, had tried for months to provoke. And he has fought too many battles in his "A years as a union leader to fall into that kind of trap. He suppressed his personal anger and kept the fight to the ground on which Lewis couldn't Win-that the CIO was biggen than any one man and all forces must unite to preserve their common gains.

THE COMPROMISER"

A pet taunt of Hillman's left wing foes is that he is a comprom iser. They are right and wrong, Hillman is a compromiser on de- tails but never on principles.

ters, Path and Commerce SITS. will
close hereafter on Saturdays, well
fare officials announced Wednes-
day.
Reason for restricting stamp

explained, is that WPA workers
who take care OF the office are
prevented by regulations from
working more than five six-hour
days each week.
Since Saturday Is a short day,
anyway, 1t is felt all stamp bust
ness can be handled during the
first five days a week when the

Charles A. Robbins. College of
Puget Sound bursar. has been GO
ing to general conferences of the
Methodist church and helping to
elect bishops since 1928. In that
time he helped put some big men
in the top positions of the church
but he never experienced as much
satisfaction as he did in the elec-
ton Of DR.. Bruce Baxter to the
office of bishop in the Northwest
area.
That was one Of the thoughts
expressed by Mr.. Robbins on his
return from the Pacific jurisdic-
tional conference OF the Methodist
church at San Francisco which he
attended as one OF the delegates
from Tacoma.
Il never was privileged to vote
for n bishop who had so many OF
the desirable qualifications As DR..
Baxter" said Mr.. Robbins. Il am
extremely glad that the church
will have his services but l am
sorry for Willamette university
where DIR. Baxter presided so sat
isfactorily as president"
The Pacific conference, one OF
several jurisdictions created in the
program which grew out OF the
uniting conference of the church,
brought together for the first time
large number of Methodists In
the Rocky mountain and coast
states.
Problems Are Serious
This is large area with 4
comparatively few people said
Mr.. Robbins. That creates some
difficult problems, but our meeting
together will soon develop ways
and means to meet them.
zone Of the problems the church
must meet IN this area relates TO
the migrant situation. In no other
part of the country Is il so serious
as in the Pacific states. Among
the great number of migrants
there are, of course. few who will
not be helped no matter what we
do. but there are many who find
themselves in that situation
through circumstances beyond
their control. Those people should
be helped. There are a great many
children. too, who are there
through no fault Of their own. The
church is taking hold OF this prob
lem and is going to work 1t out.
In the creation of boards and
commissions provided in the new
program OF church unity and activ-
ity, the Northwest conference
shared generously. Mr.. Robbins
WAS elected q member of the board
on lay activities, the only layman
from the Pacific jurisdiction.
