HOW PLANT SEIZURE
STOPPED STRIKES"

When Attorney General Francis Bid
die based his all-out advice to seize the
Ward store in Chicago, and later Chair
man William II. Davis of the War Labor
Board told a Senate hearing that only by
such seizure could spread like wild
fire Of strikes be prevented at that mo-
ment, they disclosed a new reason for
sei,ing plants 1t had been understood the
reason for such seizures was to keep war
production going.
Now that several weeks have elapsed it
is pertinent to examine the statements OF
Biddle and Davis. The candid opinion OF
many close observers was that both these
erutlite gentlemen were talking through
their hats 1t was difficult for anyone
to understand how clamping down con-
cern employing only about 5000 people
could prevent spread of strikes among
"l5 100000 workers across the nation
as Biddle and Davis declared.
Well, no use to worry about that
spread of strikes. Even while Biddle was
playing the dictator act in Chicago the
"prairie fire" had started and 1t Kept on
until as many as 10000 workers were IDLE
at one time in scores OF strikes. Inc

ure had prevented the fire
OF all the tommy-rot Blunderlng BID
die and the suave Mr.. Davis have been
peddling. this Ward business takes the
prize. OF course the new deal boys hard
ly can be blamed for trying new tack IN
bolstering up the lop-sided policy of their
chief or in making themselves ridiculous
They just respond to the crack OF the
whip.
But what of the future? If such as
Biddle and Davis and horde of others
equally as dense are to formulate ana
carry out policies along this line, can
there be any possible chance of united
people working for victory? Well, 1t Just
doesn't seem possible that they are to
continue in power. But thev still are on
the Job. In the meantime, the good, old
slugging public will keep on hammerlng
and. despite such handcaps, will see the
war through to victory.
Again the adroit, political mlnd OF
Roosevelt is seen. 1t is Biddle ct al who

CITIES DO WELL TO PLAN
FOR RETURNING VETERANS
(Riverside Daily Press)

A community program that seems
worthy of study and copying by other
municipalities is that inaugurated by
Peoria. Illinois. Its objective is the re-
habilitation and unemployment of handi-
capped war veterans. The city has seen
to it that it is ready for operation we'll
before there is any appreciable need
for it.
The plan started with the known fact
that there are many jobs which partially
disabled persons can perform efficiently.
The planners asked industries and busi-
nesseS to survey such job opportunities.
Then the whole community pitched in
and helped Medical, religious, fraternal
and service organizations gave aid and
advice in perfecting the program; local
newspapers. radio stations and movie
houses focused public attention on it.
And Peoria people called on district
representatives of federal agencies for
help. They knew that their efforts
should tie in with legislation and plans
for veterans now under wav in Washing
ton. But they also knew that the final
lob must be done at what bureaucracy
calls the local level.
In the case of handicapped men, the
Veterans Administration will see to 1t
that they learn new skills, II necessary,
in preparation for readjustment. But
the government cannot do all. The
Peoria planners decided that delay is
dangerous and demoralizing, and that
their prime objective was to conserve
the greatest of all American assets-use-
ful and self-respecting human beings.
Il became a city-wide concern that
handicapped veterans should resume
their places in community life quickly,
not as objects of pity or charity, but as
normal citizens capable of making their
own way in a worthwhile Job. 1t Will
be difficult enough at best for wounded
veterans to return home as different men
from those who left it. But surely such
a program as this will greatly lessen the
psychic shock of disability or dlsffgure-
ment. ~,
Such a plan as this is worth thinking
about in other towns and cities. Con-
Germ for the returning veteran Is shln-
