. Thought For Today
The People Still Rule

The railroad unions know what government own- ershp to striking unions It being in the comfortable position of striking against hundred and forty million people, it defying the representative of these peopehe President of the United States; the end of negotiating and compromse-n shor oblivion for the union
 In fact the whole against government ownership of industry became apparent in the railroad strike As long industry privately owned controversies be- tween management and labor remain merely disputes be- tween groups of private citizens that meet each other equals the conference table Government then is third party umpire and arber. It's only interest should be fair play all around.
 But government operation materiazes private in dusty disappears from the tension mounts and the striking group finds itself cast in the role of public enemy There is to speak for -thus it with the rail- road unions When the government took the rails and officially condemned the strike that ended the matter When the unions tried to defend themselves there to listen to them sympathze with the They could go back to work suffer the consequences-hey went back work
 So too, with foxy John L. Lewis he got under the wire just in tme and also "Ph Murray with his threatened maritime strike As Hato in his cartoon says, they'll do it every time.'
 Before the railroad strike the head of of the union Mr. Whitney observed that government ownership was greatly to be desired in the railroad industry It would be interesting to know how he feels about Regardless of how he ees he has rendered the country very great service He furnished object lesson in Socialism that should chill the heart of American who is sponsoring t in any form.

and extortion is endorsed in principle It should apply to both employer and employe. The President spec. flies, however, that such bill must not impair the rights of bona fide labor organizations to carry out their legitimate objectives. These would include the right to strike and picket peacefully. @
 2. Workers welfare funds such as that recently given John L. Lewis for the United Mine Workers, should be created by collective bargaining Any gov- ernmenal restrictions the administration of these funds need long and careful study before enactment
 8. The full right of supervisory employees to the benefits of collective bargaining cannot be lightly thrown aside. On the other hand management Is en- titled to proper protection. The line defining and separating the rights of labor and management should be carefully and accurately drawn. &
 9. Labor unions should be held responsible for violations of their contracts though to the extent of destroying labors protection against iniunctioug guaranteed under the Norris-I,aO Ouardia Act
 10. Injunctons requested by the government it. national emergency are considered essential to the maintenance of governmental authority though this injunction right should not be made available to private employers.
 II. A way must be found to prevent the juris- dictional strike.
 12. The antitrust laws should be made applica- ble to conspiracies between employers and labor organizations designed to restrain trade
 ls Finally, the President outlines again his program Of legislation designed to remove some of the causes of the insecurity felt by many workers and employers He includes in this program increased un- empioyment-insurance benefits, better health and imum wage. and continued price-contro measures such measures as these are considered essential n eliminating the causes of lockouts strikes and indus yial disturbances

Quiz Program

If congressman today we should demand, in addition to the proposed $15000 annual salary additional $64 for trying to guess what sort of labor legislation Pres dent Truman wants and double time for trying to draft it. has got to solve really tough riddles Like the fol lowing:
 About two weeks Mr. Truman had to act quickly and dastcay because he sad two threatening to tie the countrys whole economy through railroad strike Yet he wants law in which neither management labor should be permitted to become too powerful"
 MT. Truman still wants emergency powers permitting him industry when crisis threatens and to draft workers into the armed forces Yet he cautions Congress to remember in legsatng, that labor is looming of age and should not be deprived of equality with management
 Mr. Truman tells Congress that i've cannot attribute work stoppages to any factor Strikes must be sdered in the whole context of modern society They must be considered in the light of natonary pressres of problems of full employment of economic security" In other words strikes must be considered the whole of modern society," but the range be narrow and the subjects limited.
 That would to be equaity-prohbiting the old sport of highway robbery to everyone matter who Yet Mr. Truman wants the wholly unequal and unnecessary stp uation that this prohibition would not impair diminish in any affect the rights of bona de labor organiza tons in lawfully carrying out the legitimate objects there of"
 If we were congressman shouldn't relish at tempt to fill that complicated prescription For apparently what is wanted is temporary legislation strong for Congress all the hard words that Mr. Truman been called for requesting it, and permanent legislation mild that all organized workers would spran ankle in their rush to vote the whole Congress back into office
 Such prescription would undoubtedly result in a per manen state of latent economic chaos with periodic erp tons calling for temporary seizures drafts and denncia tions. Bu to think of it. we've got almost that stua tion already So maybe if congressman we just wouldn't bother with any labor legislation whatsoever

has begun to crisp the springless hillsideS.
 Springs feed the rivers of the lanc and keep them flowing. Follow then to their beginnings and you climb to the source of the brooks. You come at last to the springs where the reservoirs of the earth dole out their waters. The snoWs, the gla- ciers and the periodic rains fill and flood the channels, but the steady flow is from those sweet earth-wa- ters that wash the rocks and hesi- tate in leisurely pools before leap- ing down the hillsides toward the distant seas.
 A spring marked home site in the days when man was making the land his own. Spring waters quenched his thirst and served his flocks and turned his mill and in the valleys where springs turned brooks to streams there was good soil for his crops. He could con- tend with stones and Stumps, but unless he had water, live water, he faced odds too great to master.
 The springs still flow, and their waters are still sweet. The grass stands lush beside their pools, and in the evening there is still the song of live waters making their bene- ficent way to the sea.

BROOKLYN'S BIRTHDAY
(Hartford Courant)

The Borough of Brooklyn has
 probably had more publicity, favor
 able and otherwise, than any other
 community in the United States.
 The celebration of it's three hun dredth anniversary as an organized community was no exception. The din of festivities was audible in most of the Eastern States, and one or two more severe shocks were re- corded on the seismograph at Ford ham University Greetings in ob- servance of this milestone in Amer ican history came from as far away as the sister village of Breuckelen in Holland, community some 900 years old but not half so renowned. The Society for the Prevention of Disparaging Remarks About Brook lyn announced that it's membership had crossed the quarter-million mark. And even the stumbling Dodgers. though miles away in the hostile territory of St. Louis, man. aged to win game to add to the general hilarity.
 Brooklyn, which baskS modestly under the title of the greatest bor- ough of the greatest city in the world, really outdid itself in man. ifestations of civic pride, a quality in which it has never been lacking. Special assemblies were held in all the public schools. Flags flew. Neighborhood groups observed the day in various ways. All Borough Court sessions were opened with reading of the history of Brooklyn in brief outline, we hope. Reports do not tell whether special ceremonies were held at the foot of The Tree, but it is not likely that it was over- looked. All in all, it was great day. There won't be another like 1t for another hundred years-unless by some quirk of fate the Dodgers win the pennant this year. If that hap pens, a movement will undoubtedly be launched to make Brooklyn the capital of the United States. As far as enthusiasm goes, it already is.

Vets Mean Business

DIES MONIES, June 1S-A refreshing experience, sitting in at the sessions of the first National Con- vention of The American Veterans Committee after attending cut-and-dried, lackadaisical Republican State Convention in Indiana where everything was fixed long in advance
 Democracy is rampant in this collection of vide awake World War IT veterans, in fact rampant at times, with speeches and motions from the floor that the observer wondered how they got their or- ganization work done.
 No steam-roller here. And everything is done in the nominations, platform constitution.
 They came here from all parts of the country the pipe-smokng boys from Harvard Yale and Am- herst; the wiry boys from the South, with shirt collars open; the garrulous young from Man hattan, full of words; the quieter young of the Middle West; the fortnight, breezy boys from the Pacific Coast. Gilbert Harrison, founder of AVG convention, and some had to take up collections among friends to. pay their expenses.
 This new organization which started with the idea that this time the veterans should do something about making better world for themselves and their children, is dynamo That strikes you forcibly En- 800 chapters It had only 12OOO in January this year It has prospects of growing fast if 1t sticks to its principles and to its motto Citizens First Veterans Afterward." It is starting campaign for million members.
 These veterans form a lever that might do much to turn back the tide of reaction that recently seems to be settling in. For they in earnest They believe something. Politicians might remember that They are not satisfied with things as they are They are not satisfied with what Congress is doing now.
 They made this clear in the thunderous applause

 l. The outstanding domestic problem is that of securing an increase of production Strikes and lockouts the greatest handicaps to production. They should therefore, be reduced to a minimum.
 2 The temporary strike-control legislation is still needed It should be effective for only six months after the official termination of hosttes It should be applicable only to those few industries which the government has taken over and in which the Presi- dent by proclamation has declared that an emergency affecting the entire economy exists
 Permanent legislation is also needed. It should lead to longrange labor policy designed to reduce work stoppages in all industries. To this end the creation of joint congressional committee is again recommended. It would be required to study the whole subject of labor relations and report It's Nnd- ings within six months
 ( Repeal oR the Smith ConnaIIy War Labor Disputes Act is called for by inference. Mention is made of the fact that President Roosevelt in veto- would not lessen but would promote industrial strife Congress knew better and passed the act over his veto Roosevelt was right
 The Department of Labor should be strength ened, and the U. g. Cancellation Service should be strengthened within it The creation of new media ton service outside the Department of Labor would be step backward.

CARS ON THE ROAD
(New York sun)

American automobiles on the road today probably number somewhat fewer than in 1888. No figures are available on the number of cars scrapped during 1945,, but during 1943 and 1914, when many cars reached old age, relatively few were scrapped. The total for the two years was about 805,OOO. The re- markedly high production of 194O and 1941 allowed Americans, in general, to go through the war years with only a gradual reduction in the number of automobiles available for use. It is true that in the years l941, 1942, 1943 and 1924 the number of scrapped cars aggregated 4,500,000, but many of these must have long antedated 1941. More than 100000 cars now registered are no more than six years old. The hope that new cars will be pro- duced in volume in the near future proably prolonging the useful life of many a car; gasoline rationing re- stricted the use of many cars and postponed their end. But 1946 is likely to see the scrapping of cars on a scale equal to that of 1041. and 1942. Certainly, if the Ameri- can automobile industry is ever al- lowed to get into full and un-inter- rupted production, millions of cars which are superannuatel will be withdrawn from circulation.

for Bishop Bernard J. Shiel of Chicago when he at- tackled Congress peculiarly inept" This Congress he said, had great responsibility, but 1t did not meet 1t, failing to enact minimum wage law, to pass FEPC ripping up the price control act, emascu- lating full employment legislation and yet being in so great haste to antistrike legislation and the "ill-conceived" Case Labor Bill
 Bishop Shel's theme was that if this country provides decent living for it's people 1t has nothing to fear from Communism, since people who well- fed, we-housed and well-clothed not interested in Communism
 He touched a subject there that had significance in this meeting. For there those who trying to involve this organization with radicalism or Com munis because of what 1t stands for. It does have left-wtng elements, well liberal clements and some conservative elements It had to face in some of it's election issues the fight so usual these days over alleged Communism nfltration. No secret was made of that.
 But 1t is basically liberal organization in the best of sense, and 1t would be sad indeed If tiny minority should so confuse the membership or get in Q position to smear 1t, as to hamper the public service 1t can perform. ,ae
 Its leaders are we'll aware of this threat and well aware, too that they must keep out any Communist influence. At the same time they are conscious that they must continue courageolsly to
 fight for the principles for which they stand in do- mestic and international affairs, or, MT. Harrison put it, you've always got to take the risk of unpop- ularity."

Saving G.I. Insurance

The Veterans Administration is disturbed over the number of demoblzed soldiers who allowing their tona life insurance to lapse Or perhaps the VAS is with the lack of information inclination which is keeping veterans from reinstang this valuable and able GI insurance For the reinstatement process is neither expensive nor difficult
 All the veteran need do is pay months premiums and complete comparative health statement no matter how long the policy has been apsed There additional phys cal examination required.
 The veteran also has eight years if he wishes to take that long, in which to the G policy into ordinary 20-payment or 30payment life insurance.
 Under such simple and painless conditions there seems for veterans to deny themselves and their families the benefit of this wartime protection for the rest of their ves-especiay since difficulties mis- understandings do ase the VA is always hand to assist

LIVE WATERS

Springs are the live waters of this earth, full of cool sweetness and bub- bling with the pent-up energy of ele- mental forces. They ooze or flow or gush from the stony hillsides, follow ing an earth-fault to its open end and emerging to form rivulet or a brook. They water the land, and the course of their flow is marked by the greenest green that grows
