reason why the proviso was inserted
allowing both sides to accept or re-
ject the findings of the Mediation
Board is to avoid any conflict under
the Wagner law. The Mediation
Board recently stated formally that
any closed shop agreement must be
voluntary" if it is to conform to
the Wagner law. 1t could hardly
be a voluntary arrangement unless
in advance the stipulation is made
that the boards ruling can be ac-
cepted or rejected at will by the
parties. The pressure on the en-
ployers to conform to the boards
ruling in the event that it recon-
mends a closed shop will have to
come from public opinion or from
a special plea by the President.
Conversely, if the board does not
recommend the closed shop, the
President may be In the position Of
begging Mr.. Lewis again not to call
a coal strike.
Most persons here are betting
that Mr.. Lewis will get his closed
shop award-he usually gets what
he wants for the simple reason that

country itself. For example, the
administrator forces will lose at
least one vote in the Senate for
the armed ship bill because OF
that failure. Senator Byrd OF
Virginia. who has voted consist
emily for all the administrator
bills for aid to the British and
for the improvement of national
defense, will vote against the
armed ship bill-unless the Presi-
dent asks for legislation to deal
with strikes in defense plants. or
takes some other strong step be-
fore the vote comes on the pend
ing bill. It is Senator Byrd's
contention that this failure on
the part of the administration to
prevent the sabotage" OF the
defense effort by strikes is actu-
ally preventing unity in this
country. He is declining to vote
for any further measure which
might bring this country closer
to war-"until the administra-
tion deals effectively with the
strike situation"
There is a feeling Of bitter dis
appointment, too, because Mr..
Lewis apparently has been able
to win a victory after his defiance
of the President and the Govern
ment in the captive coal mine
strike. The prediction is made
that in the end the National De-
fense Mediation Board will rec
ommend that the CLOSED shop"
principle be adopted in these
mines-the principle for which
Mr.. Lewis and the miners have
contended. This will leave Mr..
Lewis top dog, if the steel COM
panies which own these mines
accept the decision of the board.
No 'one believes that the COM
panies will stand out against the
decision when 1t comes.
Government Lying Down.

nouncing the administration for
Evening star., 1941-11-04
BY GOULD LINCOLN.

Congress is looking to Presi-
dent Roosevelt for leadership IN
keeping defense production in
full swing. Members of both the
Senate and House were encour-
aged last week when the Presi-
dent said at press conference
he had under consideration legis-
lation designed to deal with the
maintenance of production
presumably by keeping plants
engaged in the manufacture OF
defense materials at work-un-
interrupted by strikes. They had
reason to believe he would send
a proposal of that kind to the
Capitol within a few days. The
days have passed. No proposal
has arrived. Today those who
expressed the opinion the Presi-
dent would act in this matter
are deep in pessimism. They
fear that the President, having
arranged with John L. Lewis to
have the miners go back to work
in the captive coal mines. will
let the matter of anti-defense
strike legislation slide.
No slightest doubt exists in
the minds of the Senate and
House leaders that the President
could get any kind of anti-strike
legislation he wanted if he would
just ask for it. Unless he does
ask, however, they have little
hope of any measures getting to
the White House.
Source of Disunity.
The failure of the administra-
ton to take a firm stand to
prevent stoppages of work in de-
fense plants is causing bitter
ness and confusion among the
legislators, as we'll as in the

poultry and oats from IS to so per
cent above normal United States
production.
All this points to a condition Of
diminishing supply, and when this
exists, when demand is greater than
supply, everybody from the farmer
to the corner grocer jacks up prices.
To make way for defense pro-
duction the Government is cutting
down output of almost every variety
of industrial product from auto
mobiles and refrigerators to pins
and needles. Ostensibly the bill now
before the House would permit con-
troll of prices in this category, but
1t is difficult to see how it can be
exercised effectively If farm COM
modities and wages are left to soar.
Increased prices for foodstuffs are
sure to bring new wage demands
and these in turn will be reflected
in increased prices of the commodi-
ties the industrial workers make,
unless the manufacturers are to be
doomed to bankruptcy.
Reacts Upon Farmer.
In the course OF this vicious circle,
of course, the farmer will be COM
PEELED to pay more for the articles
he buys, thus nullifying the advan-
tage that he might otherwise reap
from rise in price of the things he
produces.
Another aspect of this problem
relates to the lease-lend policy. The
United States Government is buy
ing huge quantities of good of all
sorts to be supplied to foreign ma
tions. The British, incidentally, are
taking the foodstuffs We ere sending
them and selling them to British
consumers. putting the revenue thus
derived in the British. not the Amer
!can, treasury. The higher the prices
Of foodstufis 60. the bigger the Brit
ish governments profit.
Rising prices mean that cur Gov
ernment will have to paw Just that
much more for the things it buys
and this in turn means heavier tax
alton or increased borrowing, each
of which in its own way tends to
produce price imitation.
Both Great Britain and Canada,
after other methods proved futile,
have adopted the all-over price and
wage ceiling. American politicians
eventually may be compelled to turn
to this plan. even though it offends
their vote-conscious souls.

said:
Il want to tell the country that
in this fake war with John L.
Lewis, the Government is lying
down. This Frankenstein Of the
administration is going to COM
pei his adversaries to kneel and
take orders. He is going to get
all he wants by compelling the
Government to force the grant,
ing of all his demands-and
when the strike is settled on his
basis, the contention will then
be made that no legislation Is

But don't be fooled. The cha
grin and humiliation experienced
by the people in witnessing the
defiance Of the Government, the
paralyZation of defense, and the
virtual supplanting of the Com

Senator Bailey of North Caro-

amendment pending, offered to
the armed ship bill. He intro
duced it the day after Mr.. Lewis
had defied the President and de-
clined to reopen the captive coal
mines. 1t is expected, however,
that strong efforts will be made to
get him to withdraw, or not press.
this amendment. II has no place,
really, on measure repeating
vital parts of the Neutrality Act,
and should come as a separate
measure. Senators who are
favorable to anti-defense strike
legislation and who also favor the
armed ship bill are likely to vote
against the amendment, on the
ground that they do not wish to
complicate the position Of the
armed ship bill, and also that
they want to give the President
full opportunity to make his
recommendations on strike legis-
lation.
In the House, there is on the
calendar the Vinson bill, reported
from the Naval Affairs Commit
tee, dealing with strikes-but in
manner that some believe would
not meet the present serious stu
alton. A special rule has been
granted by the Rules Committee

wage-earners and farmers, the two
groups that provide most of the
votes, on his side. Since the drastic
economy bill, launched within a week
after he entered the White House
in 1888, kicked back on him, there
never has been an instance in which
he stood up against the demands OF
either of these elements.
Hence, the President was running
strictly true to form when, in de-
f1ance of the advice of virtually all
fiscal experts, public and private, he
lodged the factors both Of wages and
farm commodity prices in asking
Congress for legislation to enable
him to prevent imitation.
On its face, the issue thus pre-
sented seemed made to order for the
Republicans. who traditionally have
made fetish of economy and sound
finance. But Minority Leader Joseph
w. Martin. jr, and Representative
Wolcott, ranking minority member
of the Banking and Currency Com
mittee, the two men principally
charged with framing Republican
policy in this instance, elected not
to grab the ball. They were obsessed
with the idea that the President de-
liberately had maneuvered to have
the Republicans take the lead in
moving wages and farm prices. To
circumvent this design, the Repub-
lican leaders have devoted them
selves to out-dodging Mr., Roosevelt.
They have not contributed one real
istic ray to the imitation control
argument.
Committee Raises Limits.
The measure now reported from
committee properly should be en-
titled, "a bill to promote imitation.
The provision that no agricultural
price could be fixed at less than 11C
per cent of parity, accepted by the
administration before the bill was
introduced. was bad enough, but the
committee went it better. The meas.
ure as now written stipulates that nc
ceiling shall be established on any
agricultural commodity below Q)
ITO per cent Of parity. % the pre-.
vailing market price last October
or 90 the average price during the
10 years, 1919 to 1929.
One or another Of the prongs or
this triplicate formula would sky.
rocket the price of every agricultural
commodity, the average reaching
about 100 per cent Of the mythical
parity. It would, for example. carry
cotton up to 2147 cents pound
wheat to Sl32 bushel, sugar to
about 9 cents a pound, potatoes to
s125 a bushel.
BY a vote of II to II the CON-
mittee decreed that there shall be
no limitation whatsoever on wages
Faces Rising Demands.
The problem with which the Ma
ton is confronted is quite simple
It arises from a huge increase In
consumer purchasing power at q
time when goods are bound to be
scarce. The Agriculture Depart
ment has estimated that the huge
shipments to Britain and other ma
tions under lease-lend provisions
will raise the demand for such vital
foodstuffs as milk, eggs. pork prod
ucts, beef, peanuts. soybeans, fruit
