to devising methods that can be generally
accepted and made to operate.
Many of us are inpatient and demand
immediate results. But world affairs move
slowly. We shall get farther if we recognize
that a perfect world order is goal toward
which we must work perseveringly. I'M
discouraged by inevitable setbacks. The
League of Nations was no more than an
episode, from which it is to be hoped we
have learned something. As We work Our
way toward better world, there will be
other setbacks. II they did not lie ahead we
should have reached the millennium now.
We CAN have a better world if we want it
enough to ,cork for it. We take it as
matter of course in wartime that We must
all work and sacrifice as individuals to
achieve victory. It would not occur to US
that the citizens had no duty beyond sign
ing resolutions in favor Of victory.
In our task of building a new world order
we might well draw lesson from what is
now being 50 well done in winning the war.
Our military leaders did not content them
selves with drawing up resolution for VIC
tory and adopting it by reclamation. They
worked out plans for meeting every con-
ceivable contingency Then they went to
work ard co-operated, to the limit with all
those having the same detectives.
Peace cannot come from any world
institution working in vacuum. 1t cannot
be brought about by governments working
alone. 1t can come only if the individual
plays his part in peace as he does in war
LET us remember this now while we are
all deep in the activities of war should
like to think that the same citizens who
now are doing such magnificent jobs in
War Bond drives, the Red Cross and all the
rest, can convert their present organiza-
tons to work for peace by study, dis
cussion and political action. Starting with
neighborhood groups, you and every other
citizen can send up the flow of informed
opinion which alone can give strength and
direction to the men in our government who
must help build world peace organi-
zation
We have never brought to peacetime
diplomacy the same forces of industry and
cooperation and realism that we devote to
the prosecution of war. If we could devote
to the problems of peace and international
collaboration a comparable amount of
individual effort we should open new and
inspiring vistas of human progress.

No paper peace plans can
bring an end to war. But
there is another method -.
AUR fighters have a right to expect
" us at home to do our part Theirs is
the task of giving US victory - but we
have the equally important duty of max
ing good use of that victory.
If We do our part well, there is hope of
peace and security. If we neglect our duty
we betray our fighters, for they will return
to live under the threat of other wars.
1t is our duty as citizens to tackle tie
difficult task of building world order that
will be a bulwaEk against war and anarchy.
This means work and study and discus
sion. to determine what would really work
and what other nations would accept. Far
too many of US content ourselves with CIV
ing three cheers for League of Nations
or a military alliance as solution for the
troubles of the human race.
MANY people believe that the world can
be made perfect from above - that It suf-
fees to set up world government with
powers to put an end to wars But there is
a catch in this. Only in relationships is
everything handed down from above.
Democracy in our own country does not
come to us from Washington We send it
to Washington. There is just as much
democracy radiating from Washington as
we send there in the form of courage,
intelligence and devotion to our ideals.
When the people become apathetic locally
we quickly see change in the quality of
government we get from Washington.
The same is true of world order. No
paper constitution, however well drawn,
will suffice to give us peace and order and
justice. No organization, however excel
lent, can operate alone. Its motive power
can come only from the determination of
each member to make it operate success
fully We have fresh in our memories the
tragic illustration of the League of Nations.
The League ceased to operate when men,
Der states began to disregard their obliga-
tons - in other words when its motive
power ran down.
There is lesson for us in this. Agree
ments accepted willingly by all parties
offer the only real hope Of success We
must not impose on other nations solutions
which they would accept unwillingly or
not at all. We should bend all our energies

The next night was comparatively

Again at daybreak | encountered the

being steered through the House by
the Laborite leader, Ernest Bevin,
in his capacity as Minister of Labor.
But the bill has. from the first,
encountered the bitter opposition of
Labor's radical wing, headed by
Aneurin Bevan, representing the
militant South Wales Miners Fed
GRAFTON. Last week there was a hot
clash in Parliament between the
two men with such similar names,
and as a result of Mr.. Bevan's OBJ
structive tactics he is threatened
with expulsion from the Labor

by fifteen other Labor M. P.'s, with
many more abstaining from the

Britoin's Labor Troubles

Whether due to the cumulative
strain OF nearly five war-years or
to other causes, certain it is that
Britain, even on the invasion eve,"
continues to be plagued by labor
troubles in some respects more vex-
atious than our own. Official at
tempts to deal with labor unrest
have aroused a controversy in Par
lament which threatens to split the
Labor Party. with possible reper-
cussions upon the entire political
situation.
Labor unrest was at minimum
during the time of Britain's supreme
peril from the Dunkerque disaster in
the summer of 1910 until the failure
of Goering's air "blitz" early the
next year. The situation, however,
has become less and less satisfactory,
especially during the past year.
To cope with wildcat strikes in
volving such large numbers of
workers that they could not be ef-
fectively dealt with by the blanket
penalties of the national service
act, the government has recently in
troduced in Parliament a bill i'm
posing specially drastic punishment
on instigators of strikes and walk
outs. This bill has had the assent
of the National Executive Commit
tee Of the Labor Party which, with
the Conservative and Liberal Par
ties, constitutes Britain's wartime

Abundant America

It seems almost like old times,
like little bit of nornalcy. to have
most Of our meats restored to their
pre-rationed status. No develop
ment could better typify the amazing
abundance that is America.
AS fully employed nation, where
consumer demands are greater than
ever before in our history. we are
feeding ourselves. and we are help
ing to feed our Allies, and we are
feeding the millions in our armed
forces at home and overseas BY
rights, we should expect to have to
ration ourselves indefinitely, partic-
ularly because we are on the eve
Of the f1ercest and most decisive
events In the war. But at this
moment, despite the immense drain
on our resources. despite the fact
that the requirements of our mill
tary forces are at a peak, we are
able not merely to continue the
feeding without letup, but to let
meat-perhaps the most important
Of all food items-be sold on vir-
tually unrestricted market.
As explained by Price Administra-
tor Chester Bowles, this Develop
ment is attributable to a drop in
lease-lend requests. reduction in
Army and Navy purchases, crowded
storage facilities and similar factors.
Basically, however, although some
diehard critics of rationing may
claim that the step could have been
taken long ago, can be credited
