Conference TO Reduce Strife

The object OF the Labor Manage
ment Conference. as clearly stipu-
lated by the President, was not TO
increase but to reduce the differ
ences between employer and en-
ploye in industry. He sought a
formula within which the mechan-
ism OF collective bargaining might
be employed without strikes. For
collective bargaining involves a ne
COLLATION., not a threat; a meeting
OF the minds, not take-it-or.leaye-
ii intimidation. Obviously, the cur
rent rash OF strikes is similar to
the pattern of the immediate years
after the last war when labor,
which had rigidly maintained a no
strike policy during the war and
had made notable gains. sought to
maintsin those gains by strikes
when the war was over. And as
part OF the pattern, the Govern
ment then held a conference like
the one now in Washington. But II
strikes are the only method avail
able for the determination OF a
national economic policy, why hold
elections for public officials?
