[ Might Be WrOrg--BU

which accomplishes more than
the President and Congress COM
bined. 1t all proves that the
mightiness of public sentiment
is still our greatest democratic
weapon.
Perhaps by fixing the public's
attention on the effect of strikes
this affair will give labor lead
ers cause to analyze the pub
lies feeling. 1t might lead
them to study a recent survey
in which a large majority of
people stated that they were dis
satisfied with the manner in
which labor leaders had con-
Quoted themselves in the war
effort while the same group of
people stated that they were
highly pleased with the way
farmers and industry had met
the challenge.
The measure Of any act can
be made only by what is accom-
plished affirmatively or mega
lively. In the case of strikes
our yet unknown patriot"
takes the meas
Approaching ure by what is
End of done in behalf
HONEYMOON of the enemy,
And that the
measurement is accurate must
be accepted. For the first time
those who would tie up the
country's entire war effort are
forced to realize that the people
of the United States look upon
such acts as rendering aid and
comfort to the enemy. And they
don't like the allegation. And
their dislike of the allegation
is a long step forward for the
country.

LUX l1E I IND LIME SLICE
= our program of defense and
war effort was inaugurated in
1910 labor leaders seem to have
been jolted by public feeling.
Some ''high official" (labor lead
ers are doing their utmost to
learn who he isl gave out a
statement last week in which he
asserted that strikes and threats
of strikes were directly respon-
sible for delay
Strikes ing the wars
Delaying end. The Off
Wars End cial cited the
probable loss of
lives of American soldiers which
would naturally result. He
stated that the threat of rail-
road strike with the consequent
order of the President to have
the Army take over the rail-
roads would delay indefinitely
the day for patriots in Ger
many's satellite countries to cast
their lot with the United Ma
lions. And he dwelt on the
eagerness of the Nazi propa-
gandists to use our seeming
inability to control internal af-
fairs as sound reasoning for
supporting Germany.
All of this carried so much
common sense and registered so
definitely with the public that
labor leaders were quick to dis
claim any intent Of doing our
fighting forces injury. They
FASTENED to cast responsibility
on others. They condemned
the statement as unbecoming a
public official and have made
demands that his identity be
given. Nothing in the years Of
struggling with these damnable
strikes has done more to put
the fear of God in the hearts Of
labor leaders who, in the lang
uage Of Roger W. Babson in his
Outlook" are approaching the
end Of their honeymoon"
This is a good sign. No one,
not even the fellows who have
shown lack of appreciation of
the country's needs, wants to
stand accused of contributing to
prolongation of this war. Al
though many public statements
have condemned strikes and
thousands of
Labor editorials have
Leaders been written on
JOlted the subject it
remained for
this unknown official to give the
necessary eloquence to get under
the thick skin of these uninten-
tional saboteurs. This official,
like the Unknown Soldier, is the
hero of millions of men and
women throughout the country
whose sole hope is to end the
war as soon as possible. If his
identity should be made known
he will still be hero. No mat
ter how much he might be con-
demned it will be his honor to
have offsetting commendation
heaped upon him. ] fervently
hope that, whoever he is, this
note of appreciation will reach
him. / hope it is possible for
him to get this type of express
sion from all sections of the
country. He should be given the
pleasure Of knowing that the
country looks upon him as an
outstanding patriot.
Congress, with all its bicker-
ing, clubbing and fear Of cleo
ton reprisals, has failed to jolt
labor leaders into a sense of
obligation. The President, with
all the powers given him in war
time, has failed dismally to
meet the challenge with success.
And yet, this one man, without
legal power and without any big
stick, gives out a statement
