Unions Asked To Delay
Railroad Strike Count

Washington, d. G. (ILNS). - The
National Mediation Board has asked
the fourteen railroad labor organiza-
tions which are taking strike vote
to postpone the counting of the ballots
until the board has finished it's media
tory efforts.

unions for vacations with pay and
other concessions.

ponement of the counting of the bal
lots was made in view Of the fact that
"strike threats and strikes would be

But after that: the bell rings, for
every soap-boxer-
That debate is fnishedl
Now, for action
Nothing but action, too
You've had your say, and had it
plenty
One of the hard rules of democracy
comes into play now
Majority rules, after the discussion
is over
Minorities have their day in court,
while court is in session
But when the court has decided, and
session is adjourned
The matter is then in the hands of
the sheriff
And the sheriff has the guns.
Now weIl see
Who believes in democracy
For democracy has it's rough ways,
too
Don't get the notion, that once re-
turns have been canvassed-
Anybody can monkey with these
buzz saws, when they begin to cut
Two years ago, the Nazis were the
only ones
Who knew what was coming, and
by what route
Excepting some folks, who talked
about "quarantines"
But Blitzkrieg jolts from Oslo to
Sofia have opened our eyes
Sleepy democracies, busy with base
ball and stock markets
Got what was coming to them, al
most

That was dandy debate
Everybody had his chance to talk
Get it all out of his system, and tell
it to 'em!
Unlimited free speech, with the
whole world listening
What gabfest that was, with ar
mics marching, ships sinking
Parade of democracy, with all its
liberties
Every band playing, and some of
them out of tune
If anybody had any more to say
He had his chance
Now, that's finished
The vote has been taken, at last
Time for debate has passed, now
Democracy can put up the prettiest
arguments

fool has had his turn
Better take time, be sure we know
all the facts, before we GO

The original manuscript of Arthur
Hugh Clough's poem Say Not the

Congress.
Archibald MacLeiSh, librarian, has
announced the loan of the manu-
script by the British Prime Minister.
1t crossed the Atlantic in a dip
lomatic pouch and was delivered by
the British Ambassador, Lord
Halifax
The story of the writing of the
now famous verses is wrapped in
mystery and romance. According to
Mr.. MacLeish. Clough was in Rome
in the early summer of 1849 at the
time when Garibaldi was defending
that city against the French.

librarian says, that he composed
this lyric during those weary days
OF waiting. Back at his post at
University Hall, London, In the
autumn. Clough incorporated the
four stanzas in letter to his good
friend. William Allingham Although
they were not published until after
his death, they have brought the
poet his most enduring fame"
Mr. Churchill cited the eight final
lines Of Clough's work in his April
81 address. as follows:
For while the tired waves. vainly

Seem here no painful inch to gain,
Far back, through creeks and inlets
making.
Comes silent, flooding in the main.
And not by eastern windows only,
When daylight comes, comes in
the light,
In front the sun climbs slow, how
slowly,
But westward look, the land is
bright"
The last line provides the title for
the new play by George S. kaufman
and Edna Ferber, The Land Is
Bright" which opened last week in
Washington and now is playing In
New York
On June II the Clough manuscript
was sold at auction at Sotheby's in

Scribner, president of the Scribner
publishing house, New York. But
