pretty hard TO be really objective.
Anyone who has watched political
campaigns In the making, has a
hard time not to attribute partisan
motive to any act or word spoken
in Washington in an election year.
AS far as taking the railroads over
goes, that might have been prompt
ed by a real and honest fear that
transportation would have been in
terfered with at moment when it
was as vital to the war effort as a
division OF fighting men. What pos
sible excuse could there be for let
ting such thing happen?
Again, whether or not there was
to be strike, there was a strike
threat At the same moment. there
was strike threat in another vital
industry-steel. That was called Off
by putting pressure on Phillip Muir
ray. head of the c. |. o, But could
that pressure have been applied un-
less Mr.. Murray could have been
told: Remember. the chances Of
acceptance of your demands by the
steel men will be a lot better if
they are afraid the government will
take their industry over too, The
railroads are warning"
And then, If you want to take one
highly unofficial explanation from a
nobody as far as ofIicialdom goes.
but from a man who has fought in
his own little sphere for things he
believes in, I'll throw IT in for good
measure.
The comment was applied to the
Presidents call for national serv-
ice act. not the seizure OF the roads.
but it applies to both. This observ-
er observed:

Notes From a
Broadcaster's Diary

The following two viewpoints re-
ceived recently are interesting Here
Is the first.
Neither slavery nor involuntary
setvitude except as punishment for
crime whereof the party shall have
been duly convicted shall exist with
in the United States or any place
subject to their jurisdiction. from
the Constitution of the United States.
The President swore to uphold the
Constitution--the national service
act or the labor draft is involuntary
servitude or human slavery. That's
what he called it in Berlin and Tokyo
and he wants it here. What are we
fighting for?
And now for the second viewpoint!
General Eisenhower said we can
win the war in 1944 but everyone
must do his part
Something must be wrong some
where for him to say that. He knows
it is not the armed forces. So it
must be on the home front. For the
armed forces operate on a function
al alignment--from commanding Of
hcer down, orders are given and
obeyed, Servicemen cannot bargain
with their commanders as to wages,
hours, fighting conditions or make
contracts on cost-plus basis. Their
objective is to win battles.
But on the home front, the objec-
tive is to make money (see Truman
Report. Ships, planes, tanks and
guns are secondary.
We can have functional opera
ton at home by installing total con-
scription of men, machines, materi-
al and money.
These boys were conscripted 10
die. Then why not conscript the
ones at home? II it's good enough
for the armed forces, it's good
enough for the rest of us.
Who can say he is entitled to
more?

1t not possible to supplement the

This Is the season of surprises
won't mention at this moment the
big one which will cause your eye
brows to go up at an early date III
they haven't already.
Ill mention two others-on the Ia
Dor front--sinee they represent two
of the neatest problems with which
congress still has to deal and which
are particularly full OF dynamite be-
cause Of the coming elections. And
elections are bound to color the acts
Of every public man from now until
the ides of November.
We are used to il now because it
happened some time age, and the
effects were not visible to the naked
eye-but one big surprise that shook
Washington as the year ended was
the sudden announcement on
balmy Monday evening in Deem
Der which ordered the army to take

All over Washington the day be-
fore. that day too. as a matter OF
fact, you could have collected fine
odds against such thing happen.
Ing. Not that people were betting
on that subject itself; what they
were betting on. those who ought to
have been land | still believe were)
In the know, was that there would
be no railroad strike.
The second big surprise is still
having its sharp repercussions al
though 1t happened not so much
more recently than the other event
to which ii was closely linked.

column in connection with the seiz-
ure Of the railroads. Then the Sec

do you realize this? Overnight,

tacks for babying labor. the Presi-
dent suddenly is in the position now
Of defending the people against la

That was the quick reaction of a
technical man to whom politics is
only an interesting sideline.
When the Presidents message
was droned out by the reading clerk
