HARVEST OF OCCUPATION

The sins of occupation, Churchill brand, have brought a sorry
harvest in Greece. A So called "free"elecion has been held. No one
in his sense will contend that the results even approach a representa-
ton of the political state of mind of Greece.
The returns ae the result of the weighing Of the scales for e
action. Mr.. Churchill INTERVIEWED against the Fam. in the first place
in the hope of keeping Greece friendly" to the British Empire. But
the chaotic results ire serving Britain badly, and Greece shamefuHy.
Since America backed the British in holding the election at this time,
and shared responsibility in furnishing observers, they are hurting
our prestige.
Until reports from all sections of Greece are in, the extent of in
tmidation at the polls cannot be known. But such pressure Was only
part of the picture. Rightist intimidation = and in some sections
terror by royaists permitted to keep arms after the disarming of the
EAM-ha had long continued under the weak government protected by
Great Britain.
The judgment of the left in boycotHng the election thus weighted
for the right is now open to question. For even as things stood the
royalists failed to win a decisive majority Although the national per-
centage of absenton from voting is not yet clear, it appears that, with
out the leftst boycott, a left-liberal coalition government could have
resulted.
Greece, in any event, remains in political chaos. This, assuredly,
is not the way to forestall either Communism or Fascism. There is no
easy way out now. But representative government must be the goal.
The United Nations should look into the situation in occupied Greece

DEMOCRACY BEGINS AT HOME

Our New York contemporary, THE New Leader" which admits
being americas leading LiberalLabor weekly" suggests that with
the help OF the Allies the Germans Chat section of Germany which was
Socialist and otherwise "democratic) could have overthrown the
Nazi regime and ended the war.
Considering that the Socialist Party of the United States, whose
program we largely follow, advocated a peace offensive" directed
at the German people-meanng that w Americans should encourage
the German people to revolt against their leaders in the midst of the
wa1-We can't find any fault with the New Leaders idea.
However, although the suggestion sounds IS good to us now as
rot at all sure that it was ever any more than a vain but noble
sentiment.
How could we logically expect America to make common cause
with Socialists and democrats in Germany II anywhere else in the
world when they reject Socialism and true democracy in their own
country? We don't think that makes sense.
AS we have always understood the rulers of a class society, about
the last people in the world that our American policy makers would
have wanted TO have the upper hand in Germany would have been the
Socialists and other small "d' democrats.
They opposed us at home; why shouldn't they oppose u com
rades anywhere in the world?
1t may be that every word of criticism which has been directed
against policies established in that section of Germany which is under
American domination is deserved. But perhaps it would be more
moore profitable to consider the policies that have been established,
defended and maintained here in America.
We think that democracy, like charity, should begin at home. And
been voting against that form of industrial democracy which Socialists
propose to inaugurate.
So what? Why st the owning class remains in the saddle and
the preservation Of the private profit system remains the primary
objective of our collective security.
Help Socialists anywhere? Forget it; we must vote for Socialism
in America before this nation will do that-Reading Labor Advocate.

THE WORKERS PROBLEMS

You hear quite a lot about the unreasonableness of labor these
days of advancing wage scales and other conditions of employment, cost
of living, initiation, etc, but you amt heard nothing yet" IS the say
ing goes. You haven't even been told how much the cost of living
really has advanced.
And then there is among employers and business lei almost
universal condemnation of labor union royalties and other new con-
to curb one union.
But you hear nothing about business royalties, chiefly because
business controls your ource of information, both printed and OF
the air. The only real information you al expect will be in a labor
newspaper.
For instance, though it has been abolished now, for many years
the steel business exacted a royalty in the form of what was known
as "Ptttsburgh plus" This meant that regardless of where steel was
produced the price a equivalent to its cost in Pittsburgh plus trans
portatlon, which brought steel made on the west coast up to the
Pittsburgh price.
And here is oleomargane. Buttermakers have for many years
have been able to persuade you to use their product by having federal
and state government exact taxes which brings the price of cleo to
just about the price what butter sells for. And even then you can't
buy it already colored.
These are only two instances of the control business exercises
ever your existence. Others could be cited, but it all comes back to
the fact that labor, in demanding some of the gravy is merely initiating
the methods of big business-Toledo Union Leader.

TRIBUNE RIDES AGAIN!

The Chicago Tribune, forrest of all tory newspapers in America, is
trying to point out in a series of articles that it's the smaller fry which
owns Americas corporations.
The baloney is pointed to show that every small town owner of a
of stock has something to say about the corporations, which is as
far from the truth a. it is possible to get.
The Tribune points out that 91.5 per cent of the people who own
shares in various corporations listed in Wall Street own stock worth
$4,000 o less, with 544 per cent of the people having shares listed at
$500 or less.
This is a fact, but these 544 per cent of the shareholders control
than 5 per cent of the total investment, while the Al per cent of
the people with investments of $4,000 or more in these same shares
control 3 per cent of the total investment. 1t is this Al per cent of the
people who III the corporations to suit themselves and not for the
in stocks. This of course, the Tribune does not say!-The Progressive

meaning Of that precious word. It

islanders when this is done. It

cans, too, for it will be almost the

of any kind freed a subject people

fascism threatening all our civil
liberties.
Foreseeing these dangers to our
national security, welfare and lib
critics, the CIO executive Board
long ago adopted a vigorous policy
on atomic energy.
Pointing out that the develop
ing atomic armament race is sheer
madness, and that in any Ease the
United States cannot long retain
its alleged Secrets" the CLIO called
for suitable international machin-
cry to bring atomic energy under
Worldwide social direction.
1t also declared that the bene-
fetal industrial, scientific and
medical possibilities Of atomic en-
ergy are so great that they should
belong to the people, and not sub
jected TO private monopoly or mill
tary control.
The Go urged that the United
Nations outlaw the military use of
atomic energy and all production
OF atomic bombs, and promote the
constructive peacetime develop
ment of atomic energy, with world
wide public information and edu-
cation.
1t urged complete public control
OF all atomic energy patent rights,
licenses and resources in the USA
by a democratic civilian agency.
Since then, the Security Council
OF the United Nations has voted
to set up a commission on interna-
tional control of atomic energy, but
no action has yet been taken.
President Truman has declared
IN favor of civilian control of
atomic energy. Bills to establish
such control, introduced by Sena-
tor Mcmahon and Rep. Helen
Douglas, have had the support of
labor, farm, church and most other
public-spirited organizations and
citizens, including notably the
atomic scientists themselves.
But, with the worsening of in
ternational relations and the cur-
rent vogue of get tough" big
stick" talk, the mad impulse to
self : destruction through military
control and rivalry in atomic
ornaments seems to be gaining
ground, as evidenced by the Van
denberg amendment and new eff
forts to pass the May-Johnson bill.
This matter of civilian control OF
atomic energy and international
regulation is of prime importance
to labor, as to everyone else.
The atom is a question we can't
eVade by saying to others, That's
your funeral" 1t may mean every

WHERE FREE ENTERPRISE"
FELL DOWN

We are constantly assured that
all the good things in the world are
traceable to free enterprise" We
are very much in favor of free
enterprise" ourselves, but we can't
shut our eyes to its obvious weak
neSSeS.
The situation in the British min
ing industry is a fair example. For
centuries it has been run by free
enterprise" and the result has been
starvation wages, impossible work
ing conditions, obsolete machinery.
During World War II, one Of the
many crosses" carried by the Brit
ish people was the lack of coal
to keep them warm. The output of
coal per man-day was about 25
per cent Of American production.
In other words, the American
miner dug four tons to the British
miners one ton.
1t wasn't the British miners
fault. 1t was the fault of free en-
terprise."
The British Labor government is
taking over the mines and plans
on installing modern machinery.
Still, according to reports from
London, the industry is sick" 1t
can't recover in a day from the
overdose of free enterprise" which
it swallowed in the past.-Labor.

more, we have never been able to
discover where Senator Byrd, de
spite all his talk, has saved any
considerable sum for Uncle Sam.
In other words, we have viewed
Senator Byrd's economy program"
as a good deal of a "phony."
Apparently others hold to the
same theory. Just the other day a
writer in "a Washington paper re
called that Senator Byrd was Gov
ernor of Virginia about 20 years
ago. He devoted a great deal of
time to building up a political ma
chine" but he also had a state
Economy plan.
He promised to consolidate de-
partments and reduce the number
of employees and, of course, to cut
expenditures. It hasn't worked out
that way.
Virginia has one state employee
for every 1874 citizens. There are
only eight states in the Union
which have more state employees
than Virginia. For example, New
Jersey, with 1000, 900 people, has
1900 state employees, while Vir-
ginia, with a population of e.
700, 900 has 1890 employees.
So, it would appear that Senator
Byrd breaches economy" but isn't
very successful in practicing it

VOTES TO STOP
JOHNSON'S PENSION

More trouble for Federal Judge
Albert w. Johnson of Lewisburg,
Pa. He resigned in order to avoid
impeachment, based on gross cor
ruption. Then he decided to be
smart" After the House had
~pigeonholed the impeachment pro-
ceedings, Johnson demanded that
he be paid the usual pension for
the rest of his life.
Naturally, that aroused members
of the Judiciary Committee, and at
their request, the House passed a
bill wiping out Johnson's pension
rights. 1t is expected to go through

LOOKING AHEAD
By Len De CauX

If you want to believe the dire
predictions OF II. c.. Wells about
mankind going berserk and madly
rushing to Self-deStructiOn, con-
slider the mighty atom.
Here is a discovery that can
bring untold blessings to mankind
"a tremendous new source of en-
ergy to relieve human drudgery.
to reVOlutiOniZe medicine, to pro-
duce countless comforts, to bring
more leisure, better health, longer
life and higher living standards.
Yet so far the chief results have
been atom bombs to lay waste
whole cities, spy scares, interna-
tional ill-Will, intensified competi-
ton in the arts of mass destruc-
ton, and Congressional plans for
what Henry Wallace calls mill
tary faSciSm."
The United States is supposed to
be jealousy guarding the secret"
of the atomic bomb. Yet scientists
say there's no real secret, and that
all other countries have to do is
to perfect the industrial processes
necessary for the bombs produc-
ton.
But from this false theory that
we can reserve to ourselves the
exclusive power to destroy the rest
of the world, many dangerous con-
cluSlOns are drawn.
One drawn by powers excluded
from the secret" is that the Unit
ed States is implicitly threatening
them with the atomic bomb and
that in self-protection they must
compete desperately in the produc-
ton of this and even d eadlier
weapons.
Other conclusions, within the
United States, are that atomic en-
ergy, being primarily a military
secret" must be kept under ex-
clusively military control; that
atomic scientists must be barred
from talking about it even to each
other, and that a military Gestapo
rule must be established over uni
versities, industrial plants and
everyone even remotely connected
with atomic developments.
The May-Johnson bill in the
House and the Vandenberg amend
ment adopted by a Senate commit
tee would establish this military
control over atomic energy.
They would heighten the fears
of other countries, squirting them
to an atomic armament race:
would cripple the development of
atomic energy for peaceful pur-
poses by gagging scientists from
sharing their information, and
would lead to a type of military
