What Next?
Question In
Labor Outlook
MANAGEMENT AND LABOR
FARLEY FAILED ON A
SOLUTION FOR STRIKES
BY James Preston


-WASHINGTON-It is all too
clear that the Management-Labor
Conference failed in its major OBJ
jective-that of finding some way
of ending the nationwide wave of
strikes.
The parley's accomplishments
were Substantial. The cutter fail
ure" label which some have pinned
on the meeting is unfair and in ac-
curate.
But the end of the conference
found the troubled labor situation
just abodt wirlc II vas before the
manaa ement and labor conferees
sat down together.
The Outlook
What next?
The Administration is on the
spot in the strike crisis and knows
il well. TIL cefcre me of the new
moves was the Presidential mes
sage asking Congress for legisla-
ton to curtail industrial strife.
Even while the conference was
in session, high administrative #
ficials ere working on a labor
legislative program. Very little is
known about it except that serious
study is being given to the estab-
lishment of some fact-finding ard
voluntary arbitration procedure.
This is provided in the bill (S.1419
by Senator Mcmahon of Connecti-
cut, pending in the Senate.
This program must take account
of growing demands that labor
cease wildcat Strikes in violation
of contract.
1t must take into account the
growing feeling in the country
that the time has come to settle
down and turn out goods which
the nation needs.
White House Disappointed
Some members of Congress
would like, for example, to move
toward that end by placing the
same responsibilities upon labor
that r placed upon employers by
the Wagner Act.
The outcome of the Manage
ment-Labor Conference was a
great disappointment to the White
House. MI. Truman's statements
on the matter clearly indicated as
much. He had hoped it would give
him a formula for avoiding or set
ting labor disputes.
The parley did not get down to
fundamentals on some major is
sues because labor, over and over
again, indicated it's feeling that it
had nothing to gain by agreement
on these primary issues. Legisla-
ton enacted in recent years has
given labor many advantages. Ger
tainly agreement which would
clearly define management's right
to manage would take away some
of the authority labor has tried to
assume.
Similarly, labor felt it had moth
ing to gain from any limitation of
its right to strike.
Industry offered concession af-
ter concessation-Iabor offered to
give up very little. Thus no major
compromise was possible because
labor did not wish to compromise;
hence the conference failed to
reach its full detectives.

tudes- In the shops we have organ

rights. Our experiment with a
mixed office staff shows that there
is no excuse whatsoever for unions
or progressive organizations to
practice Jim Crow because of pos
sible objections from the member
ship or the community.

like Ellis Arnall for Governor,
surely Mississippi al do as much.
1t is perhaps difficult for a person
who lives in Mississippi to realize
how much the attitude of a Cali
fvrian or New Yorker, or even q
Brazilian, toward a state can be
changed when that state elects
someone like Ellis Arnall to a high
position. In the days of Talmadge,

v~ersation brought expressions of

During the war big business

Wilkie pointed out. However,
this much is certain: Graveyard
shifts are a thing of the past.
Surplus employees and fringe
efficiency employees will disap-

at this point that the smaller
shops will be expected to absorb
those released from the big

Dear Raner:

SO distressing and so asinine until

Hest possible moment. I want to
say to you, sir, that decent white

a far greater degree Of embar-
rassment when it is announced
that you r. a native of Mississ-
ippi than you and your associates
of such low mentality suffer when
you have to say you are from that
state.
If you do not want to be embar-
raised by being castigated for be-
ing from Mississippi, since Miss
issippi is 81 well represented in
the American Congress at this
time until the negroes, commun-
lists, pinks, reds, and all off-brands
are raising hell" about it, then l
, suggest that you seek better com
pany. Quit associating with Ne
groes, mongrels, half breeds, COM
munists, etc. and you won't be en-
barrassed.
! And when you mentioned the
pamphlet entitled Races of Man
kind and the negro book Black

for you know the two authors of

Column
A UNION SETS THE PACE
Edited by ERNA p. HARRIS)

A considerable number Of liberal
and labor leaders have developed
anemic personalities when il
comes to the day-to-day practice
of racial equality. Whatever pri
vate convictions they profess tt
have they usually manage to ra-
tionalIze a Jim Crow compromise
on the basis of community atti-
tudes, rank-and-file prejudice, anc
now-is-not-the time arguments.
This pattern of conformity has
become so common that except
ions loom up as candles in the
night. In a border city that reeks
with Jim Crow an experiment was
launched a year ago whose sue
cess and permaence are now de-
finitely guaranteed. A progressive
union, haded by men with woral
CUTS, hired a Negro office secre-
tary in complete defiance of com.
munity practices.
Before taking this ground break
ing step, the head of the union
asked various other liberal anC
labor leaders whether a mixed Of
flee staff was possible in a Jim
Crow town. To a man they all as
sured him that neither the rank
and file members of the union nor
the community as a whole would
tolerate such an innovation. But
the girl was hired anyway and to
this day not even n question, let
alone an outright objection, has
been raised by anyone-either in OF
out of the union.
The union executive went even
further. When nationalist patriots
were screeching against japanese

big hole in the unemployment
pattern.
with this thought in mind,
The DoALL Company has ad-
Justed its entire merchandising
outlook.
Develops Plan
1T has developed an Occupa-
neutrality-suspicious. Plan which
seeks to encourage the creation
OF additional small enterprises
IN the metal, wood, and plastics
working field as well as their
expansion"
Highlights of this Occupa-
tional : independence Plan ac-
cording to Wilkie, are, first, to
provide direct and specific as
slstance to veterans enabling
them to pursue peace-time occu-
pations which offer a high de-
gree OF security; and second, to
help produce a class of men, who
will be given an unrestricted
opportunity to develop and be-
come successful by their own
efforts.
The program seeks to show
the servicemen how to organize
and operate service and repair
shops which are a basic need in
all communities.
Training Offered
This training is offered at The
DoALL Technical Institute, set
up by the company to train men
and women in the use of the
basic equipment of eight types
OF community service and repair
shops.
The program provides the
specific layouts for the various
shops, lists the machines, tools,
and equipment required to begin
operation, gives information
concerning costs and in general
covers the entire prospects Of
the industry.
A model Of one Of the shops
in the program, as planned by
The DoALL Company, has been
set up for inspection by veterans
and others interested in owning
and operating their own bust
nesses at the Des PLANES
