Evening star., 1941-06-10

What must they think. as month
after month passes, and they still
do not receive the planes, the anti
aircraft guns, the artillery, the ma
chine guns, the tanks, and the other
equipment with which they must
famiharize themselves. Much of
this equipment they might have
had and learned to use by now If
1000 900 man-days had not been lost
through strikes in 1941.
The soldiers, too, have heard that
'never before since jamestown and
Plymouth Rock has our American
civilization been in such danger as
now"
What must these soldiers think Of
a Government which takes them
from their homes and work, COM
pels them to go to camps in order TO
train with modern weapons and
then sits idly by while those who
have not been drafted strike and
stop the flow of weapons, without
which weapons the sacrifice of the
drafted man counts for nothing.
Discussed in Training Camps.
Undoubtedly they think exactly
what you and I think about it. l
am advised that it is the foremost
topic of conversation throughout the
training camps of the United States.
And who are these drafted men,
these hundreds of thousands of
young Americans who are now wear
ing the Nations uniform? Are they
not the sons, the brothers and the
husbands of the great masses of
working people of this country?
While these strikes continue and
spread, the faith-the morale-of
soldier and civilian alike sinks lower
and lower.
Morale is a thing of the spirit. Its
very essence is faith. With the SOL
dier it is the confidence that his gov
ernment will support him; that it
will leave nothing undone to see
that he is supplied with everything
Evening star., 1941-06-10

ment. If 1t means to give these men
the full measure of support, must
insist that industrial disputes be
settled without resort to strikes.
In applying such a remedy, no
essential right which labor now has
need be taken away. Labor would
retain its right to collective bargain
ing through representatives of its
own choosing, to present to the en-
ployer it's grievances. which should
be reduced to writing. The en-
ployer should be required to answer,
and both the complaint and the
answer should be given to the public
Finally, if it is impossible for
employer and employe to agree, the
matter should be referred to a
board on which labor has a repre-
sentative, the employer has a
representative, and the public has
a representatives. A decision of the
majority of these three should be
final and binding on employer and
employe alike. In other words, the
public would make the decision by
being the third member of the
board. If the employer failed to
accept this verdict, he should be
severely penalized, and if labor
failed to accept the verdict, it
should be severely penalized, too.
This is but an outline of the plan
which I feel sure could speedily be
whipped into shape. Or If a better
plan can be devised to end strikes
then let us have that plan instead.
Nations Welfare First.
The point is that strikes must end,
that labor disputes must be settled
by arbitration, that the Nations
welfare comes first, that the drafted
men in the training camps shall not
be let down, that the American Ma
ton shall be put in a state of COM
plete national defense at the earliest
possible moment. To these ends,
each man, employer and employe,
farmer and urban dweller, rich and
poor, high and low, must contribute
his share. Such sacrifices are in the
interest of the general welfare and
are part of the obligation we all owe
our Government as citizens.
do not believe, certainly not as an
initial step, that it is necessary for
the Government to take over the in
, dustrial plants in order to eradicate
the strike difficulty. do not believe
! they should be taken over unless the
employer has been in the wrong. The
taking over of industrial plants is
exactly what the Communists and
the totalitarians want the Govern
ment to do. That is one of the pri-
mary objectives of the Communist
party, fundamental tenet of its
political philosophy. Communists
and totalitarians are promoting
these strikes, trying to obtain during
this emergency what they were un-
able to secure in more normal times
We should not fall into the trap
they are setting for us.
In sum, the American people want
their Government to set up fair and
equitable machinery for the settle
ment of industrial disputes and the
outlawry Of strikes in plants making
defense equipment during the pres

necessary to make him effective
particularly when the Nations safety
is in danger. Without the highest
morale, which stems from faith
In his government, the soldiers ef-
fectiveness as a fighting man Is
seriously impaired.
Consequently strikes are double
menace. First, they prevent the
fighting forces from receiving the
equipment they must have to de-
fend themselves and the Nation;
second, by so doing the morale OF
the fighting forces and civilians
alike is constantly lowered.
Cliques Terrorize Workers.
Then, too, it has been shown that
many of these strikes have been
forced upon the workers of the
Nation by small cliques, well Or
ganized and often operating by
strong-arm methods. These small
groups have not hesitated in cases
to threaten, terroriZe and coerce
the workers. I am unalterably con-
vinceo that the strikes in the
United States, for the most part,
are opposed by the overwhelming
mass of the workers themselves.
I am sure that the great mass Of
those in industrial establishments
employees and employers, are just
as patriotic and just as willing to
sacrifice, in this hour of national
danger, as any other group of our
people.
1t is because of these circum-
stances that there is a rising tide
of resentment throughout the Ma
ton against the increasing indus
trial stoppages. Every one is de-
manding that the Federal Govern
ment take firm action. In the press.
on the air, in the voice of the man
in the street, we hear it again and
again. They are saying:
1T is not right for the Federal
Government to exercise its power to

few hours. In Europe we have
learned of the death of tens of
thousands of men, women and chill
dren, too. Why? Because before the
war came such countries failed to
put themselves in a state of ade-
quate defense Now their portion
is blood and tears, toll and sweat.
Over there, no less than here, men
talked continually of their rights
and privileges and failed to think
at all of their duties and RESPONSE
bilities. Thinking thus and acting
thus they lost everything. Today
they have neither privileges nor
responsibilities. They are but slaves

Yet, in the face of strike after

sat supinely by, applying a little

often the Labor Act, as administered
