NO VICTORY WITH INITIATION

IN INi4ESS The approaching end of the war In
- Europe spurs all of at home to continue
holding the line against food price initiation, we
risk losing the final battle against price rises
The end of war in Europe does not mean the
end of the threat Of runaway prices. In the last
war one-third of the increase in the cost of living
came after the Armistice.
Food takes 40 per cent of the average family
budget. Any sharp increase in food costs would
bring hardship to millions of Americans.
Now, more than ever consumers and grocers
have a two-way responsibility to make ceiling
prices work
For the housewife it means watching for and
checking on the price list prominently displayed
in the store 1t means insisting upon seeing the
list if for any it is not displayed, question
ing the grocer about any price that appears to be
out of line. Finally, it means the reporting of any
uncorrected on repeated overcharges to the Price
Panel of the local War Price and Rationing Board.
Only in this way can win the battle to hold
down food prices

'EllE CHARGE of National War Labor Board
labor members that the board has failed Presi-
dent Roosevelt by refusing to make recommends
tions in the matter of changing the Little Stee
wage formula seems fully justified. After weeks
Of delay which recently has assumed the aspect
Of outright stalling, the board finally acted, but
only TO dodge the issue, as the labor members de
clare, by refusing to make any recommendation to
the President
The boards announcement that it would make
a "factual report Of the relationship Of wages
and living costs is solution. "Ihe President has
relied upon the board to advise him in matters
affecting wage stabilization,' the labor members
point out. But the board has chosen to avoid re-
sponsibility apparently not having the courage tc
either oppose or approve modification of the
Little Steel" formula.
Now the whole matter is up to the President
Labor generally has confidence in his fairness and
is hopeful he will decide in favor Of Just and order
ly pay increases in keeping with increased costs
Of living.

V7IIE A. f. of l.. called upon its adilates through
out the country to back labor's drive agains
attempts in three States California, Florida anC
Arkansas--to abolish the union shop.
The federation pledged itself to carry on al
intensive educational campaign until election day
TO win the referendum votes pending in these
states on proposals to ban the union shop by con
stitutional amendment or by legislation.
In circular letter to affiliated unions A. f
of l.. President Green pointed out that this is not
a sectional battle but will affect the basic interests
of organized labor throughout the land.
lie, therefore, appealed for contributions from
Individual unions TO a special fund being raised by
the American Federation Of Labor with which tc
finance its campaign. Such contributions should
be sent to A. +. Of l.. Secretary Treasurer George
Meany at the Federaton's headquarters in Wash

Mr. Green said in his letter:
"rhis appeal is being made because the fight
in California. Florida, and Arkansas against the

tion must be regarded as a menace to the eco
nomic and industrial welfare of all the members
Of the American Federation Of Labor located in
every state throughout the nation.

CREDIT WHERE CREDIT is DUE

a RE YOU one of those prone to criticize every
action of Organized Labor or the cause of
Organization itself? If you are just remember a
few of these things: You probably wouldn't have
any 40-hour week, any just Workmans Compen-
saton laws, any Social Security any Protective
Child Labor laws or any such free public schools
las have in this country, it not for the fact
that organized laborng men and women struggled
for years against selfshness and bigotry to make
them possible. These are only some of the things
that Organized Labor has given to you whether
YOU belong to a Labor Union or not There are
many more many freedoms we all take for
granted that have been won through the efforts
of Organized Labor in the past and are being pro
tected by the men and women Of labor for your
children tomorrow. SO before you criticize idly
the actions Of Organized Labor, make it point
20 know and learn and understand the accom-
'pIshments OF those Union men and women.

Now take the charge that the ad-
ministration forecasts that the govern
ment will own the country.
To get that charge into campaign
speech, Mr.. Dewey seems to have been
forced to resort to the old-time trick
of taking a part of a paragraph, leay-
ing the main and modifying part out
entirely.
So, it turns out that Assistant Secre-
tary of State Berle pointed out, in a
speech of his, that a danger of the
future was that the government would
own the country. He wasn't advocating
it. He was pointing it out as a danger
to be avoided.
The danger lies in the fact that the
government has SO much money in
vested in war plants that had to be
built To wage THIS war the govern
ment had to get into everything.
We expect the government to get
out, but not by giving it all away to
big business.
There was time when government
in Washington was little more than a
reflection of the real government in
Wall Street.
If there were to be choice between
the government owning great part of
the nations resources or Wall Street
owning the government, there are a
bo OF
price to return to Wall Street control
of government.
Some of those now are yelling so
loudly about what the government
owns are those whose power was shorn
when government came back to Wash
ington and left Wall Street to run
errands and to deal fairly in stocks
and bonds, like brokers and not like
rulers.
The Securities Exchange Act rankles
still, brothers-it surely does.
To get fresh picture of what hurts
the Big Boys, maybe it would be a
good idea for you to go and see the
great motion picture Wilson"
Wilson dealt the first great blows
hat brought government back into the
service of the common man. Without
preaching at ADJUST by sticking to
hings that happened, the motion pic
ure tells the great story of Woodrow
Wilson, who was bounded by the
Money Bags and their political SER
ANTS as few have been bounded by a
mob.
Among the laws then enacted was
he Federal Reserve Act. Man, how the
Big Boys howled Government started
O come back to Washington.
You will be doing yourself favor
" seeing that picture. You will come I
way with renewed cleamess of vision.
You will be able to get better look
It what is happening today.
So, what about this business of the
government owning the nation?
Well it all looks pretty silly.
Anybody that is greatly bothered
Y it ought to take look at himself
rSt.
Does the government bother YOU?
10 YOU feel any goshawful govern
lent rope around your neck?
You have been protected against an
lhation that could have wrecked you;
on have been protected against sky
ocket prices that no wage scale could
ave kept pace with.
In the greatest of all wars, you, the
ommon Man, have been protected as
ever before. And Mr.. Big, who never
has so far-tO get all the
.aflic will bear, has been held in leash,
eld to moderation, and yet left free
!, produce i'm miraculous fashion.
Somehow these alarums that Mr..
ewey's experts" write for him, fall
cry fiat, even while they sound very
minous Are we such fools as to be
,oled?
1t could be, but let us profoundly
Dpe not !-CMW.

went down to defeat before the three
times governor of North Dakota
elected on a clear-cut international
platform.
Another breach was made in the
nationalistic front by the withdrawal
of Senator Reynolds of North Caro-
lima who, like Senator Bone, left
voluntarily.
There were two other defeats in
final senatorial contests to be noted.
Senator Holman Of Washington men,
toned in the famous book, "Under
Cover" for his alleged ultra-nation-
alistic 1eanings, was replaced by
Wayne Morse, a Republican who
leans well toward international CO.
operation, and the wel-liked Senator
Danaher Of Massachusetts, who
went down before the aggressive
campaign of Brien Mcmahon, one Of
former Attorney General Homer
Cummings assistant AGs.
There are certain other points
worth noting.
On the Foreign Relations COM
nittee whence must come approval
for international commitments, Sem
ator Reynolds and Senator Bennett
Clark and Nye are removed.
In any case, however, the removal
of Senator Nye, who was chairman
Of the powerful committee on COM
mittees, means that such new ap-
pointments as are made will not be
influenced by the North Dakotan's
extreme views.
Other factors make for support of
the administration. The election has
greatly strengthened the prestige of
Senator Ball of Minnesota who was
most active in the fight to get the
original resolution favoring an inter-
national peace organization before
the congress and the people. SINH
lar increased influence in the senate
will be exerted by former Repre-
sentative Fulbright who fathered a
like resolution in the house.
A look at the Republican leader
ship in the upper house is worth
while in this connection, too.

Washington, ID. C.
Washington, in these weeks OF
preparation for the forthcoming
meeting of the Big Three, has gradu-
ally begun to realize that the result
Of the November election, whatever
its effect on domestic politics may
be, placed America face to face with
the greatest problem in the field OF
foreign affairs that this country has
ever attempted to solve.
] And regardless Of how effective
the efforts of our statesmen may be
there is no question that the people
have placed behind them pledge
Of harmonious support.
The President will sit down at the
meeting, probably somewhere in the
Middle East, with Prime Minister
Churchill and Marshal Stain, with
the most specific mandate as to for
eign policy ever given President
by the people Of the United States.
Americas representatives at the
United Nations conference, which
will probably take up the unfinished
business started at Dumbarton Oaks,
will enter discussions with the great
est military force and international
prestige that any Of this country's
diplomatists have ever enjoyed.
When the United States senate
starts deliberations on the agree
ments which grow out Of the par
leys Of the Big Three Cor Big Four),
and the later meetings Of the United
Nations representatives, that body
will have what now appears to be
the necessary two-thirds majority OF
senators whose constituencies have
expressed themselves in favor OF
broad international cooperation.
The people have spoken. 1t now
depends on the wisdom and the abil-
ity of their servants to produce the
kind Of plan for the postwar world
which will be at once thoroughly
American in principle, acceptable to
our friends and effective against our
enemies.
A brief review of the new COM
plexion of the senate reveals how
strikingly the people spoke in favor
Of international cooperation.

Trend Evident
Before Election

The trend became evident before
the election in four primary contests,
and bipartisan support for the pol
icy of International forces was
achieved and cooperation has been
reinforced by other circumstances
as well. Beginning with the defeat
of Gotten Ed Smith Of South Can
DINA in the primaries we find in
his place the senator-elect Johnston
who, in his campaign, pledged his
support of the administration for
eign policy.
Another defeat in the primaries
was that of Senator Worth Clark of
Idaho, whose opponent (now sena-
tor-elect Taylor) campaigned on a
strong internationalist platform, the
first to win on such program in
this state so strong in the Borah ira
dition.
Another ardent isolationist to fail
denomination in spite of his splendid
record as a skilled legislator was
Bennett Champ Clark. His fall was
a mighty blow to the isolationist
cause since he was member of the
Nye munitions committee, composed
of Senator Nye OF North Dakota,
Clark and Senator Bone Of Washing
ton, a group which for years has
been the well-spring of emphatic
Observation-Disclosures speech and ac-
ton.
The other two members of this
group have departed likewise: Sena-
tor Bone was appointed to Judge
ship in his home state; Senator Nye

COP Minority
Promises Moderation

AT present quartet of leaders
with Senator White as their nomi-
nal head are at the helm. OF these
Senator Taft, although usually rated
as strongly nationalist, is after all
on record as-favoring the old League
Of Nations in principle, criticizing
only the fact that its members failed
to carry out their promises. An
other of large influence, Senator
Vandenberg, has done a great deal
to interpret the trend of popular
sentiment in the middlewest away
from a rigid nationalist viewpoint.
He worked to that end in the Mack
mac conference, and at the Repub-
hcan convention last summer. He
did yeoman's service in cooperation
with Secretary of State Hull in OBJ
tanning senate support for UNRAA.
Without the help Of these Repub-
licans and their colleagues, and of
course Senator Austin and Senator
White, the administration could
hardly get two-thirds vote. This
more conservative element will also
furnish valuable check against eff
forts toward extreme International
ism on the part of the adninistra-
ton which might turn the people
against the administration and thus
defeat its own purpose.
Perhaps the task Of checking ag-
gression Is too great for human
hands and human minds to achieve.
But never before in our history has
America had such an opportunity to
lead the world toward the goal of
goodwill and peace among nations.
