Without Representation

1t is strange and disturbing conceS-
sion or is it an assertion? - that
Chairman William H. Davis of the War
Labor Board makes. This great agency,
which has pretty much superseded nor
NAL peacetime labor controls, is utterly
powerless to assist anybody who, by his
own choice or through necessity, does
not belong to labor union. There are,
we are told, and can readily believe, 49,
100000 clerical, white collar, morgan
lied employees in the United States. There
are 10000 union members. Govern
ment officials say that, while the Little
Steel formula" can be applied to aid union
workers, nothing can be done for the much
greater army of the unorganlzed, except
what employers care to do voluntarily.
Chairman Davis cannot help these 49,
100000 and their perhaps 45,OOO,OOO
dependents unless they join unions.
On the basis of actions, which speak
louder than words, we can go further
than Mr.. Davis went. We can say that
not only does the government decline to
help non union workers, but it actually
hampers them. 1t forbids pay increases
which employers are ready and ANXIOUS
to make. Thus the governments made
quacy, so far as the 100000 who are
not beneficiaries of the Little Steel
formula is concerned, is not merely one
of passive impotence; it is one of active
obstructionism. The obStructlonlSm is
universal, but selective. 1t is not confined
to the War Labor Board; it is probably
worse with the Treasury. There, in some
Jurisdictions at least it is frankly ldeolo-
gical.
Consider, for example, the administra-
tor who, passing upon the case OF white
collar worker whose income had been cut
in half, expressed forthrightly his reason
for forbidding raise:
'No man who earns as much as $4,000
can be considered a victim of discrimina-
ton or maladjustment."
Yet for union members wage scales
yielding as high as $1,000 for concrete
mixer have been approved, according 10
Senator Harry F. Byrd
The Waterbury Democrat., 1943-11-24
Singed Wings

The people of the United States have
been flying so close to the Socialistic
candle that some of them have had their
wings badly scorched. They have been
obsessed with the idea that they could
get something for nothing by having the
government furnish it, AS a result, they
are loaded with taxes to pay for "gifts"
and government debts.
At last they are awakening to the fact
that taxpaying private industry is more
beneficial to the nation than tax-exempt
government projects which must be paid
for by taxes taken from the people. In
speeches, newspaper editorials, radio
talks and advertising copy of many in
dustries, there is outspoken sentiment
that the nation must go forward on the
solid foundation of private initiative and
enterprise which built it.
Recognizing the singed wings warning,
Eric A. Johnston of Spokane, President
Of the United States Chamber of Com
merce, recently said: There is some
danger of America becoming totalitarian.
OF course it would come under a form
different than we understand it now. I'm
less that danger is averted, the peace of
the world is averted, the peace of the
world Is endangered. Too much power
should never be placed in the hands of
government. We should tell the whole
world that we will not preside at the
liquidation of the American way of life"
It's worth getting our wings singed if it
teaches us to keep away from the fire.
