four years can possibly understand the importance of being able to make his own decisions.
 Only the man or woman who has had to take orders, some of them without any apparent reason, for long periods of time could possibly hope to appreciate the determina- tion of the veteran-to-be not to have others do his thinking for him. That is why so many CTS are incensed at those who attempt to speak for the man in uniform and who try so hard to set the veteran up as a man apart from all other mortals
 The CT doesn't want to be put in a special category when he gets out of uniform. While he wants a job for himself he is also intelli- gent enough to realize that there must be jobs for others or his own job won't last. Above all, he does not want an economy of special privileges for those who have been in service.

THE NEW SECRETARY

The new Secretary of Labor - Judge Lewis B. Schwelenbach promises to be the strongest man to hold a cabinet portfolio which has in relatively weak hands ever since it created
 Judge Schwellenbach believes, first of all that he ought be the advocate in the government of all laborng people not merely those organized into unions he is solid ground Labor is entitled to it's just business and farming get effective representation through the Secretaries of Agriculture and Commerce. Yet nobody would say that in the past the Secretary of Labor has, enjoyed anything like the prestige accorded to his colleagues.
 One reason for this lies in the fact that the governments labor connected functions have been divided among number of agencies independent of the Department such as the National Labor Relations Board the War Labor Board Railway Labor Board, etc Sometimes it has seemed that all effective gov ernment activity in the employer employee field was carried on outside the Labor Department and that not much was left for it to do except to compile statistics
 Judge Schwellenbach hopes to change this sit iuation. He hopes that, under the powers asked by President Truman to effect reorganization in the administrative branch of the government, some Of these scattered labor activities may be brought to- eether in his department He is, however, aware that they were up outside it's jurisdiction altogether without reason It was done because virtually all of these boards have quasi judicial functions well as purely administrative tasks
 s The secretary would assume only the latter.
The Daily Alaska empire., 1945-08-28

Thus, his department might take over from the ULRB it's function of holding elections in cases where the right of union to represent majority of the employees is challenged and it might even prosecute unfair labor practice cases, but Judge Schwelenbach does not want his department the task of sitting in judgment
 In the past there has been some criticism of combining the functions of prosecutor and judge Tn single agency It must be admitted that this is the accepted tradition of administrative law-law which has increasing importance with the necessity for more and more regulation of specialized fields The NIRB is by no means the only example of thls It has been successfully worked out in such bodies as the Interstate Commerce Commission.

Veterans As Strike-Breakers?
(St. Louis Star Times

(St Louis Star Times Representative John E. Rankin of Mississippi ran LID post war storm warning with his announcement that he hopes to make returning veterans into strike breakers AS chairman of the House Veterans Com mlttee the Mississippi demagogue is calling for the passage of a bill which would exempt veterans from union closed shop contract provisions and from the payment of union dues
 This he explained, would protect honoraby dis charged veterans in their rights to join unions or refrain from joining labor and other organizations as condition of employment" We are not so sure that veterans should be placed in a special category ana exempted from any all of the laws of the land specifically the Wagner Act However, it seems that MT Rankins first is not for the veteran He let the cat cut of the bag when he said that his measure would break more of the strikes in our war industries than anything else that has been done since the war began"
 Very few persons would attempt-even for mo- ment-to defend wartime strikes, but 1t must be clear even to MT Rankin-that the provisions of his bill would have their widest effect after the war is over Only then tremendously large numbers of former soldiers will be the labor market and in position to take advantage of such legislation. Therefore the hill if passed would create very bad situation Tor American industry trying to get back on it's feet after the necessary dslocations of the war It would create two kinds of employees, and probably seno them against each others throats. It would actualy represent an exploitation of the veteran which would be anything but fair to him.
 We doubt that MT. RanKln VIII get very lal wi0ii the measure but it, coupled with the news that former Senator Reynolds American Nationalist Party has been soliciting contributions from ndustriasts Tn Chicago Cleveland, Detroit Pittsburgh and Boston IS a warning that the spirit of fascism is not dead Tn the world Senator Reynolds supporter, Joe Mc- Williams makes no secret of his respect Tor Nazl tactics The efforts of his kind to promote reaction and make nice living out of it--among unrecon- structed isolatonistS, anti-Dewey Republicans ana mon who can't get over their hate for Franklin Roosevelt even after his death are all too reminiscent of the appeals which one Adolf Hitler used to gam funds on his way to power. And there were httie Hters all over Europe who-wth less success-soughI to promote their own ends by capitalzing the dis contents and the grievances-real or imagned-of former soldiers.
 American democracy, feel confident is far too vigorous to succumb such subversive tactics but they must be publczed and resisted because the price of liberty-as always-is vigilance.

NO CASH HAND-OUT

Some GI's are carried away by the prospect of cash bonus. While Congress has not as yet passed any bonus legislation, numerous bonus bills have been introduced on Capitol Hill and leading members of both Houses have spoken in favor of a bonus. Bonus legislation is therefore a definite possibility. Not all CTS, however, favor a bonus. Some of them realize that bonuses are just cash hand outs and do not guarantee or cannot replace the security of jobs.
 These GI's would prefer job planning to bonus legislation. They are well aware of the pressure that will be eXerted in favor of a bonus and the easy way out that a bonus represents They remember all too well what happened to veterans of other wars who settled for forty acres-and-a-mule or a cash hand out. They do not want that to happen again.
 In the past, very little planning has been done for the veterans of Americas other wars When the veterans of the Spanish American or World War I came home they found nation entirely unprepared for their return. The veteran of World War I was given S60 in cash, "a pat on the back and Is years later he was paid off via the bonus.

"teched" in the head. The CT has heard so much about rehabilitation for the returning veteran that he sometimes wonders if he will be met with a straight jacket or a brass band when he finally gets home.
 The veteran wants neither. He wants to be treated as an ordinary citizen who has done the job he had to do He wants to return to his community on an equal basis with those who stayed home and did their part on the home front. Above all, he does not want to be set apart from the people of his home community. He wants to re- turn to being ordinary Mir. Jones with a personality and mind of his own. Promise him that and he could ask for little more.

REVAMPING GI BILL

The initial steps taken by Con- gress to provide for the veteran via the GI Bill of Rights and other legislation have met with approval so far as the men in service are concerned. This is not to imply that all CTS are entirely satisfied with the law as it now s t a Il d s. They are not But, they are aware of the fact that legislation is al- ready in the works to improve the law on the basis of actual experi- ence. This tends to reassure them.
 However, many GIs realize that merely providing free schooling, government guaranteed loans and unemployment protection does not mean that all their problems will be solved by the CT Bill of Rights They also want some assurance that other weaknesses in our democratic way of life will be cor rected by the time they get ready to put on the blue serge suit. Or at least, within a reasonable time thereafter
 For one thing, they want to be sure that racial and religious in tolerance will not continue to be a barrier They have lived with men of other races and religions and have learned to understand them.
 For another, many CTS feel that better planning is needed for sounder educational methods to in sure their children against the possibility of another war With that in mind, they ask that inter national affairs, history and po- litical government be taught so as to make them living things instead of dull routine,
 Many of the CTS also want compulsory high school education for all, slum clearance, low-cost housing projects and universal or group hospital and medical care. If these come into being, they feel that the better world they have heard so much about will actually come about in their and their children's time.

BE ORDINARY CITIZEN AGAIN

All these require planning and leadership. For both of these the CTS are looking to Capitol Hill and the White House.
 Once they are assured that such plans are being taken care of and their security in the postwar world is guaranteed, the veterans will be able to turn to the more local or personal problems facing them in their home communities.
 Above all, the veteran does not want to be treated as some strange or curious being who is slightly
