Must Adopt Sensible Policy

The recommendations OIL the treatment of labor questions in Axis
countries afhh their occupation, which the international Labor Office
submitted to the International Labor Conference in Philadelphia, led to
a severe conflict In which American and British labor unfortunately
stood at opposite sides.
The International Labor Office had recommended that the United
with the duty of regulating labor relations, safeguarding social rights
and encouraging the development OF free democratic labor unious.
Robert Watt, the representative of American labor at the Confer
ence, Fundamentally supported these recommendations, while Sir Wal
Ter Cltrlne, President of the British Trade Union Congress, took issue
with them, n the ground that questions of high policy should not be
taken up without Russia, and that "there must be some punishment
Of the millions of German workers who, by their t@it approval at least
in which this question was discussed decided against Robert Watt and
the International Labor Office, by referring the matter back to the
Governing Body of the lilo.
The workers, not only in this country, but of all countries should
be grateful to Robert Watt for his courageous position in this matter. The
stand he has taken in Philadelphia is in accord with the repeated de-
inands, both of the AFL and the CIO, that the United Nations encourage
the reconstruction of the free labor movement in the liberated Allied
countries and in the occupied Axis countries. &Ft
1t is significant and encouraging that exactly the same position has
also been taken by the International Federation of Trade Unions, whose
president Sir Walter Ctrine happers to be. A report issued by the
international Federation on the eve of the International Labor Con-
ference maintained that the reconstruction of the trade-union organiza-
tons and the restoration of trade-union rights in all countries is one of
the first steps toward human liberties and democratic institutions"
The experiences in occupied Axis territories in the last few months
hove borne out these claims of the American and international labor
unions. In the alied-occupied parts of Italy labor unions have been re-
vived and have proved to be a progressive, ani-Fascit, pro- Allied force
which helps the Allied war effort.
It can safely be assumed that Sir Walter Cnrine does not want
the workers in Axis countries to be punished by not being allowed to
form labor unions and by refusing them protection in their social rights.
only to be hoped, though, that British labor will realize. as American
labor has already done, that the best diplomacy is that which fights
openly for free labor and democracy in all the world-The Brewery
Worker.

Victor-Humbert- BadoqIio

King Victor Emanuel, in transferring his powers to Prince Humbert,
indicated his belief that the prince would hold them for life. We doubt
that this will be borne out by events. Certainly Hlmberts lieutenancy
should be shortlived.
The Allies should have prevented his assumption of the royal
powers. They should have done SO because, like his father and Badoglio,
the weakHng prince has so long been a supporter of Fascism; because,
like them, he deserted it only when it ceased to pay because, like them,
his support in Italy is from the oigarchy of privilege which still hopes
to balk true liberation of the country from reactionary exploitation. The
King had to recognize that his own infamy barred continuation of his
own active reign. But he saved opportunity for reaction by winning
Allied acceptance for Eumbert
Now that the transfer has been effected, it doubtless is futile to call
for Humberts immediate removal. The fact that he is a weak nmn OBJ
viously limits his prospective efficacy in blocking democratic govern
nent. Let his acts, however, at least be subject to vigiant scrutiny. AT
the first sign of treachery to the people of Italy, let the Allies drop all
support for him, Sc that the Liberation Front government can force
him out. #&
AS for BadogLo, he apparently means to renege O his original
pledge to quit power when Rome was won. He is more dangerous than
Humbert, because he is stronger. 1t will be impossible to contend that
Italy has a regime worthy of a democratic future, or of Allied pledges
to lquidate Fascisn, Sc long IS he remains in power.
Nevertheless, Italian liberty has gained tremendously by the Allied
winning of Rome. The Presidents speech Monday reconfirrned that the
Allies will do all that is humanity possible to bring food and health to
the people, and that the President stands firmly on the side of liberty

AMERICAN SLAV DAY
IN MILWAUKEE

To rededicate themselves to the
service of America, to the liberia
ton of all enslaved peoples, the de-
struction of barbarism and the
establishment of a just and durable
peace, 'The American Slav Coun-
ell, a united body of all Americans
of Slavic Descent, will hold Amer
lean Slav Day" Sunday, June 18th,
at the Mitchell Park, beginning at
200 P. M.
Nationally known speakers: AL
bert A. Krzywonos, National Sec'y
American Polish Labor Council,
Reverend Jaroslav Pelikan, Chair
man Slovak National Alliance, Con-
gresham Howard McMurray and
others will speak. There will be a
program of music and dancing by
various Slav Nationality Groups:
Czech, Slovenians, Croatians, Slo-
walks, Serbians, Poles, Ukrainians,
B~ulgarians, Russians, and Macedo-
mans. Each nationality is asked to
come in their National costume.

The episode is characteristic of
the present trend toward business
government participation in the
setting up of postwar economy.
Private business owns the property,
initiates proceedings and pockets
the profits. Government puts up or
guarantees the basic capital, takes
the risks and guarantees the prof
iteers against loss. The military
establishment is an essential part
of the security guarantee. Similar
steps have already been taken with
regard to shipping and eommunica-
tions. They are being worked out
in the field of commercial aviation.
If petroleum is a vital world es-
sential, there is only one place in
which decisions regarding it's flu
ture should be made-at the seat
of world government. Since there
is, at the moment, no world gov
eminent, the next best thing is to
establish a United Nations Council
for World Economy and have that
body make the necessary decisions
until a permanent world govern
ment is established. The worst
possible method of handling the
problem is to have Anglo-American
- 81 i -
the two largest sea-air forces in
the world, determine the patterns
of postwar petroleum development
and distribution. Such procedures
guarantee a world oil monopoly to
a group of private interests and in
sure the continuance of the cut
throat survival struggle in which
World War II is but m episode.

PREDICTS 20 MILLION

WAR

WASHINGTON. - While some
Senators moved along on the plan
to protect the reconversion of in
dustry after the war without real
study of the problem of the work
ers involved, the Senate Military
Affairs subcommittee May 4 heard
a stern warning from Brig. Gen.
Frank T. Hines.
Gen. Hines, director of the Re-
training and Unemployment Ad-
ministration, predicted that prob
ably 20 million pepole will have
to change their work at the end of
hostilities." Z
Gen. Hines said that the "poten-
tialities for economic and social
catastrophe are greater than they
were after World War l." with this
mass turnover looming ahead.

Help Us or We Perish, Is Tenor
OF Appeal Filed With Govern

A few years ago the highway
truckers competed to successfully
with the railroads that the nations
main source of transportation was
jeopardized.
Recently they told the Office of
Defense Transportation that unless
they get financial assistance many
will be forced out of business and
suggested the government substitute
their operations.
Since the war began they have
been compelled to raise the wages
of employees and improve working
conditions, they contended.
