"A Good WOrkman'S Reward

THE people of Detroit have paid
Il Mayor Jeffries handsome com,
pliment by extending TO him the
almost unprecedented honor of a
fourth term. a.
The mayors record in office for
the last six years was only one of
several issues raised in the campaign.
Some Of the issues Of the campaign
were extraneous and had no place in
a Detroit mayoralty contest.
However, Mayor Jeffries has been
a good workman and his retention by
the voters Tuesday was wise and
fair.
We wish him every success in his
efforts to solve the city governments
difficult postwar problems during
the next two years.
THE most heartening aspect of the
l. election, however, was the record
turn out of more than half million
of the city's 100000 registered
voters.
No politician should miss the
significance of this.
An overwhelming majority of
Detroiters said, in effect, that they
are vitally concerned with the public
affairs of their community.
It was a convincing demonstra-

The Way to Prevent
Strikes

THE plain and irrefutable fact that
Il the way to prevent strikes in
the United States will ultimately be
found in the field of impartial COM
PULSORY ARBITRATION is
steadily gaining acceptance in the
country.
It has always been supported by
the Hearst newspapers. 80
1t has long been recognized by
majority of the American people.
Now it is beginning to have ac-
ceptance in the ranks of responsible
labor leadership.
Impressive evidence of this ac-
ceptance is in the recent speech by
Donald R. Richberg, able and sue
cessful legal representative of vari-
GUS labor unions in many important
court actions, before the Chicago
Association of Commerce.
Mr.. Richberg was co-author of
the Railway Labor Act, which has
virtually abolished strikes in the
American railroad industry and is
the longest step toward permanent
labor management peace ever taken
in the United States.
LIE WAS one of the trainers of the
IL National Industrial Recovery
Act, which was the New Deal
administrations greatest bid for
labor's political support.
He therefore speaks with the
highest authority for organized labor
in the United States.
And this is what he said in Chi
cago
"The wdy to prevent strikes is to
MAKE THEM UNJUSTIFIABLE
AND UNNECESSARY, by a laW
which wiH ESTABLISH AND RE-
OUIRE THE USE OF PROCESSES
OF JUSTICE for the settlement of
industrial disputes.
A great menace to national secu
rity, tranquility and prosperity, he
warned, exists in "neU breed of
strikes rDhich have no legal or
moral justification" and which should
be quickly and completely FOR
BIDDEN BY Law"

NDER such law, Mr.. Richberg
- believes, "A Uasf majority of dis
putes DiL be SETTLED PEACE
FULLY"
Under it, he urges, eft strike is
threatened for an uniatUful purpose,
such strike can be preUented or
speedily broken by CRIMINAL
PROSECUTION"
In it's operation, he says, "public
officials Uiil be able to determine

great and so intolerable that some
form of GOVERNMENT COM.

A LII strikes are disruptive of

Many strikes are irresponsibly
called and callously conducted.
Too many strikes are without
legal or moral justification, as Mr..
Richberg says, and great many
strikes are the deliberate results of
MALICIOUS AND SUBVERSIVE
INSPIRATION AND PURPOSE.
Compulsory arbitration is the
sensible and practicable remedy for
this dangerous situation, the sound
and patriotic corrective of it.
The alternative to compulsory
arbitration, as Mr.. Richberg so well
says, is continued growth of an evil

POLITICAL
PARADE
By George

~ ERV O Us pussyfooters in
~ Congress, who have been
terrorized by the political power
of the Congress of Industrial
Organizations Political Action
Committee, should be able 10
regain some of their lost Cour-
age after studying the returns
from DetroitS mayoral election
on Tuesday.
This applies TO Republicans,
although il is particularly APP
pliCahle TO Democrats.
There is a lesson in this cleo
tion for the latter, namely that
Democratic candidates can get
along without the PAC a whole
lot better than Go candidates
can get along without the
Democrats.
The local elections in Detroit
and New York must be conSid-
cred together.
In the latter a regular Demo-
cratic politician. nominated and
supported by the Democratic
organization. was selected with
Go and left-wing support.
In Detroit Go labor leader
was nominated for mayor. This
was Richard r FrankenSteen,
international vice president Of
the United Automobile Workers.
TT is apparent that this at
Il tempt by the left-wing of

POLITICAL CONTROL of a
great industrial city. by nomi-
mating one of its own top-flight
leaders, was a political blunder.
What happened in greater
New York was that Democratic
voters supported their party's
nominee. and although the labor
vote was split, enough went
along with William O'Dwyer 10
turn the city over TO the Demo-
cratic party after II years of
wandering in the wilderness.
What happened in Detroit
was that, against a background
of strikes, disorders and indus
trial chaos. interfering malig-
nantly with peacetime recon-
version. the CIO went it virtu-
ally alone, while thousands OF
conservative Democrats sup
ported Mayor Edward J. JEFF
fries, running for a fourth term.
THEORETICALLY, the De-
i troit election was nonpartl-
san, but this was a fiction which
deceived nobody.
F'rankenstccn, Democrat
who was a delegate to the last
national convention Of tn a I
party and who was one OF the
more ardent rooters for Henry
Wallace as fourth-term running
mate with Roosevelt. was in
dorsed by his party-and by the
Communists as well.
So political lines actually
were sharply drawn in Detroit
with the Republican winning by
a surprisingly large majority.
While the Democrats scored
impreSsively in their comeback
in Greater New York, party
leaders who have announced
that this victory for O'Dwyer
forecasts the defeat Of Gov.
Dewey in next years guberna-
torial election Will fool nobody
but themselves If they really

This inference that the gov

what Mr.. Roosevelt used 10 call
"a mandate TO go CIO or new

general surprise TO the politcos

Detroit, namely:

top of their tickets, the left
wingerS, radicals, professional
new dealers and indeed the
CIO-PAC itself. cannot pretend
to the popular following he
gave them. Indeed. far from
having a fresh mandate, their
future has been made doubtful.
A PRETZEL-LIKE stretch OF
hthe imagination would be
required 10 reach any different
conclusion. These two cities
were the strongholds Of leading
