Third, these independent" unions are
the happy hunting ground of irresponsible
adventures. 1t is notable that Dayton,
where the phone strike began, is a nest
of these "labor" careerists, who are Vi
ciously anti-administration and are try
ing to sabotage war production.
Fourth, such characters take advantage
of justified grievances which, through the
neglect and the deliberately anti-labor
policy of the majority of the War Labor
Board, go unremedied. Certainly the $21
a week now paid the phone operators is
far below a decent standard, and the
WLB, which has the power to Increase
even if the increase exceeds the Little
Steel Formula Of Is per cent, all Sub
standard" wages, should long ago have
acted to raise telephone wages.
However, when all has been said in sup
port of higher telephone wages, the fact
remains that the strike was unJustlfled.
1t took the form of an attack on the
maintenance bonus paid those employees
temporarily transferred into Dayton. 1t
became an attack on other workers, rather
than upon the employer, who might wei
come it as an excuse to be ''fOrced" to
discontinue such bonus.
AS Frances Tandy of the Oakland local
of the American Communications Assocl-
alton advised the Ohio strikers, ''The real
issue i sthe degraded, substandard wages
of the operators throughout the nation
and this issue can be settled through the
War Labor Board"
The WLB, despite is reluctance, could
be compelled to raise wages if the opera
tors, working with all organized labor and
an aroused public opinion, would make
such miserable wage scales a public scan
dial. But to do this, these independents
would have to seek support Of other
unions and also wni public opinion. And
in this case the union leaders appeared
unwilling or unable to do either.
These are factors which not only the
public, but labor unions generally, should
take into consideration.

tiles to economic livelihood, to equal OPP
portunity for educational and cultural
development, and to political equality.
S.. INTERNATIONAL INSTTTU-
T1ONs TO MAINTAIN PEACE WITH
JUSTICE MUST BE ORGANIZED. An
enduring peace requires the organization
of international institutions which will
la) develop a body of international law
Cb) guarantee a faithful fulfilment Of
International obligations and revise them
when necessary; (c) assure collective
security by drastic limitation and con-
dlnuing control Of ornaments, COM
pulsory arbitration and adjudication of
controversies, and the use when necess
airy of adequate sanctions to enforce
the law.
6. INTERNATIONAL ECONOMIC
co OPERATION MUST BE DEVELOP
ED. international economic collabora-
ton to assist all states to provide an
adequate standard Of living for their
citizens must replace the present econ
omic monopoly and exploitation OF
natural resources by privileged groups
and states.
T. A JUST SOCIAL ORDER WITH
IN EACH STATE MUST BE ACHIEVED
Since the harmony and well-being of the
world community are individually bound
up with the internal equilibrium ano
social order Of the individual states
steps must be taken to provide for the
security of the family, the collaboration
of all groups and classes in the interests
of the common good, a standard OF hy'
ing adequate for lf-development an'
family life, decent conditions Of work
and participation by labor in decislon
affecting its welfare"
It is to be noted that underlying TN
thought of all Of these "musts' is tn
idea of brotherhood and brotherlines
in the relations of all men with one an
other. It is without class or race dis
tinctions. It is "the big idea that ha
| led to the constant progress toward soc

SOME THINGS TO LEARN
FROM THE PHONE STRIKE

Although the telephone strike has been
called off, too many factors concerning it
have been concealed by the "~reliable'
newspapers and by those who called the
strike, for the public to learn anything
from the event.
Almost every newspaper account "for-
got" to say that the union concerned is
NOT a part of either the AFL or CLIO,
that it is an independent" one of those
which, like John L. Lewis United Mine
Workers, have been responsible for near
ly all strikes since Pearl Harbor. Hence,
the phone strike did not impeach the "no
strike" pledge Of the main stream of the
labor movement.
Second, it should be understood that
these independent" unions are all too
often controlled by employers. And that
this can be suspected Of the union starting
the recent strike is seen in the manner Of
its calling, and still more in the manner it
was called off-at the moment the Presi-
dent was about to seize control Of the com
panies' property.

OPEN FORUM
THE MORALBASIS
OF PEACE

More and more the world is thinking
in terms Of q durable peace. The war
will be lost, all agree, if we are not able
TO find the firm foundation upon which
peace can rest. War again, after this
second world war to make u world safe,
is unthinkable. We must find that Sc
cure foundation upon which to build.
And this foundation, say the leaders Of
the three great religious bodies of the
United States, Catholic, Protestant, jew
ish, will be found in the realm Of the
spiritual and moral considerations. And
they have agreed what these spiritual
bases are. Further, they have come
together in a word for word statement
OF them. To be sure they approach the
statement or this "Interfaith Declaration
on World Peace or 'The Pattern for
Peace, from different points of view.
Each has its own preamble. But the
bases, the seven i%rreducable "musts' of
lasting peace are identical and are set
forth as follows:
1. THE MORAL LAW MUST Gov
ERN THE WORLD. The organization
Of a just peace depends upon the re-
cognition Of the fact that not only in
dividuals but nations, states, and inter
national society are subject to the SOW
reignty of God and to the moral law
which comes from God.
2. THE RIGHTS OF THE IN.
DIVIDUAL MUST BE ASSURED. Tht
dignity of the human person as the i'm.
age of God must be set forth in all it
essential implications in an information
al declaration of rights, and be vindicat
ed by the positive action of nationa
governments and international organ.
ization. States as well as individual
must repudiate racial, religious, or othe
discrimination in violation of thos
rights.
8, THE RIGHTS OF OPPRESSED
WEAK, OR COLONIAL PEOPLES
MUST BE PROTECTED. The rights o
all peoples, large and small, subject Il
the good of the organized world com
munity, must be %safeguarded within tn
framework of collective security. TIL
progress Of undeveloped, colonial, or op
pressed peoples toward political respon
sibility must be the object Of Internal
iOnal concern.
4. THE RIGHTS OF MINORITIEs
MUST BE SECURED. National govern
mdnts and international organization
must respect and guarantee the right
of ethnic. religious, and cultural minor

a lad who was a good dancer and
had keen line; that it was work
and worry, and crying babies and
diapers, and putting somebody else's
happiness before their own.
And, most of all, I have warned
these poor, foolish little girls that
if they married before they had any
playtime in their lives they would
regret it; that before their trous-
seaux were worn out they would be
tired of sitting at home every eve
ming with a boy who was just as
tired of them as they were of him,
and that they would want to be
running around and going places
and doing things and having good
times, as the other girls of their
age were doing. For being married
doesn't change a girls desires 1t
only makes the things she wants to
do more tempting because they are
forbidden fruit.
I have told them that under
Heaven there is no other figure more
pathetic than the child wife and
mother struggling with a job that is
too old for her, and with which she

that nothing untoward can happen
to them. And they go on marrying

this type Of furniture as a hobby,
and before long 1t had caught the
fancy of the public to such an ex-
tent that he now employs 20 people
to help him. Hearts, flowers, vege-
tables, angels and horses are his
favorite motifs. Each finished ar
ticle also boasts motto or two,
usually in French, that is applicable
to the certain piece of furniture.
The cry OF most homemakers in
attempting decorated furniture is
Il have no artistic ability at all
and my efforts, no matter how hard
/ try, look amateurish." Peter Hunt
claims that such work is simple to
do, that the designs are based on
the sort Of motifs which European
peasants used to decorate their
handicrafts. He claims love of
color, happy heart and the desire
to paint Is all one needs.
To try your hand you might start
on with an old kitchen chair. If
1t has been previously painted, as
undoubtedly it has, and the paint
f1lm is in good condition it will not
be necessary to remove the old
flnish, nor use an undercoat. just
make sure the surface is clean and
also be sure tc remove any oil.
grease or polish by wiping with a
cloth saturated with turpentine.
Sand the old finish lightly to re-
move the gloss and provide adhe-
sion, then wipe this off. Apply
enamel in the desired color. Then
paint your owr designs or COPY
those Of Peter Hunt, which can be
found in pamphlet obtainable at
IA local paint store. A coat of var
nish is applied over all. Now, if
you do not plan to antique the
object, you can consider the Job
completed, but II a dull finish is
desired you still have further to go.
To antique you brush a certain
glaze all over the surface, then
wipe most of it off except a trace
at the edges and that which re-
mains in the depressions of the
wood. Following this procedure
apply coat of varnish to assure
that none of the antique glaze rubs
of on clothes.
II you are really interested in
trying your hand we suggest you
secure copy of the booklet men,

You'll find full directions for each
step and they are easy to follow.
