GOVT. MAY SEIZE
 SHIPBUILDINC co. Kearney, N. J. Plant, By Strike, Is Holding Up
 Defense Work
BY UNITED PRESS

Defense officials believed today that the government would seize the Federal Shipbuilding and Drydock Company Plant at Kearny, N. J., this week.
 There were no weekend develop ments to improve the outlook for a settlement of the strike which last Wdnesday halted work on nearly $500, 100000 in defense contracts. Representatives of the 16,O00 strik- CTS in the industrial union of Mar inc and Shipbuilding Workers (CIO) have urged the government to con- mandeer the plant.
 Action waited on the return of President Roosevelt from a vacation cruise. A plan reportedly has been drafted to place the plant under government control and to assure the union that its union shop de- mand will be met.
 The strike was called after the company refused the recommends tion of the National Defense Media tion Board, for a modified union shop. 2
 Four hundred AFL craftsmen building 8 new wet basin" and three shipbuilding ways had refused to pass picket lines, but the CIO Union granted them permission yes terday to return to work.
 The CIO shipbuilderS' union won a union shop clause in a contract ratified yesterday for employees of the New York Shipbuilding Corp. At Camden, N. J. John Green, Na- tional President of the union, prais- ed the company for serving as "a model for other shipbuilders to fol- low"
 At Caldwell, N. J., the strike of 300 machinists at the propeller plant of the Wright Corp. Forced shutdown at the factory yester- day. The company said the plant would reopen today on a limited basis. The dispute developed over a recent national labor relations board election in which an independent union won bargaining rights in a contest with the AFL.
 A Wright spokesman said the strike threatened. output at the company's Clifton, N. J., Indiana polls and Pittsburgh propeller fac- tories because production was in- tegrated.

The Great Game of Politics
Labor Trouble Luid to Political Link
Between White House and LOBBYISTS

peals of. the President for sacrifice
exceedingly hollow.
The original defense setup. with
its labor leaders offsetting the in
dustrialists all the way down the
line and endowed in every case with
"co-equal power" told the story. 1t
is not strange that this, coupled
with presidential insistence upon
the sacredness of the social gains"
chief of which is the Wagner Act,
should have been interpreted by
labor politicians as license to make
their drive. Certainly that is the
way they did interpret it, and Ger
tainly they have made a steady
drive, with almost no White House
interference. AS FAST as the Media
ton Board settled one strike, by
granting all or most of the union
demands, half dozen other strikes
promptly broke out. For many
months past there has been a weekly
average of about 80 strikes on de-
fense orders in the country. There
are that many at this moment.
Board Couldn't Enforce Policies.
That the two c. I. o. members of
the Mediation Board-Mr. Murray
and Mr.. Kennedy-should have re-
signed at the first decision adverse
to their union is not surprising.
They were not on the board for anv
purpose other than to promote
c. l. O. interests. The same car
be said OF the A. F. L. representa-
tveS. II the situation had been re-
versed the latter would have been
the ones TO resign and the C. I. O.
politicians would have stuck. Their
reSlgnations do scuttle the board:
but that is not bad thing. It was
never capable of formulating a labor
policy or of enforcing one. All 1t
did was 10 follow the White House
party line.
The outcome of the present clash
between the Government and John
L. Lewis United Coal Miners is. of
course, foregone conclusion. The
Government cannot permit Mr.. Lewis
to defy its power, and Mr.. Lewis will
be foolish to attempt it. In this sit
uation the President is forced to be
hrm- No matter what face saving
gestures are made. Mr.. Lewis cannot
be allowed TO hold up coal produc-
ton. But after this crisis is part
what then? VIII Mr.. Roosevelt lay
down real labor policy?
It is time 10 do something real
about this labor business. The basic
trouble, as every informed man
knows. is that there has been-and
still is-a strong political link be-
tween the White House and the
labor lobbyists. from which both
have proflted, but from which the
country is suffering very much. Be-
fore Mr.. Roosevelt can effectively
lead this Nation jim crisis like this
he must convince the people that
this link no longer binds him. There
is no better way for him to serve
his country.
