Symbols Of Unity

THE White House initiative in inviting leaders of
i labor and industry to Washington to work out
voluntary plans for adjusting labor disputes during the
war is a gesture in the right direction.
II should be followed by other symbolic moves cal
culaed to perpetuate for the duration the high and
unusual degree of national unity which has prevailed
ever since the perfdy of the Japanese Pearl Harbor
All groups recognizing the common danger, are
eager to stand behind the Commander Chief.
In order to make this of good feeling last
throughout the emergency Mr. Roosevelt should
the people that there will be truce in all major domestic
issues.
THE President should undertake to demobize promptly
after the peace has been all temporary apparatus
which for purposes limits the freedom OF private
business and of individual citizens.
If the President does this, he will relieve the minds
of industrial and financial leaders. and put more
thusasm behind the support which in any circumstances
they are determined give him.
Moreover Mr. Roosevelt further heghten the
confidence of the people he converts his administration
genuinely national government bringing into his
counsels Americans of outstanding capacity.
IN PEACE time the main weakness of this admlnstra-
/ ton has been in administrative competence, and this
be corrected promptly by inviting outstanding Ameri-
cans irrespective of party lines to work with thePresi-
dent
And if Mr. Roosevelt would add to his official family
frst-rate industrial and labor leaders, he would cement
the by which recent events have brought all Amer-
Loyalty to his support.
In order decisvely against the strong military
powers arrayed against it is necessary and desirable
that we exert the full strength of the United States.
The prevailing unprecedented degree of national unity
in effect provides with secret weapon, added
strength which from the realization of the harmony
Of interests of all American groups.
This spirit of harmonious cooperation not only
eliminates friction delays and sow-downs, but releases
the full energies Of the American people.
This happy state of affairs should be perpetuated
through symbolic acts Washington which will make it
slear that the President the agent of united nation
not of any special group.
