1t does seem that these California
and Maryland primaries might mean
something to the strategists who
think there is zone more election in
the CIO." Perhaps, they have not
grasped their significance. They will
not get the correct Interpretation
from their CIO friends. But there it
is, in two widely separated States,
one on the East Coast, one on the
West, where the CLIO registered fool
ish futility. 1t might be helpful if Mr.
Truman's friends acquainted him
with these and other related facts 1t
would be helpful to him in taking
positions and handling situations in
the next two years. He does not, of
course, have to kick the labor pro-
fessionals in the face, but neither
does he have to fear them. Their real
power came from the White House
support they had 50 completely for
thirteen years. Take that away and
their size is greatly reduced.

This is so clear it seems dumb, in
deed, for the politicians not to recog-
nize that the country has turned on
these puffed-up labor professionals,
their PAC's and other Instruments
with which they propose to run the
Government, just as it turned on the
Anti-Saloon League fourteen years
ago. There have been many evidences
of this in the past six months-nota-
bly, in the primary elections. A
recent summary by the Dunn Survey,
of Greenwich, Conn, entitled "The
Great American Hoax" shows that,
despite its claims the CIO has made
record in these primaries so futile
as to justify assertion that its poll
teal power is largely a bluff.

In the past year and a half the ar
rogancc of the Murrays, Hillmans,
Reuthers, PetriIlos, Quilts; their ap-
parent willingness to throttle the ma
ton to gain their ends; their threats
to candidates, their bullying of Con-
gress, their violent dcnunciation of
those who want to curtail the power
which they so flagrantly abuse and
correct the lopsided laws which gave
them such immense advantages, to-
gether with the hundreds Of unneces-
sary strikes which have crippled pro-
duction, increased the cost of living
and enhanced the danger of initiation
-allthese things have combined to
make the people thoroughly sick of
these strutting bosses with
their high-powered press agents
and their pompous pronounccments
on everything from taxes to the atomic
bomb
The Republican. [volume] (Oakland, Md.) 1877-current, 1946-07-11

In some states its selections have
been badly beaten and in some its
claims are absurd for example, Cali
forna and Maryland. In the former
where the CIO is supposed to be eX-
ceptionally strong, Governor Warren
overwhelmed its candidate and won
both Democratic and Republican nom
nations In Maryland, the eXtraOrdi-
nary spectacle was presented of two
Democratic gubernatorial candidates
stunning CIO CndOrsement-and one
denouncing the ClO. The latter was
beaten, but then he never had
chance, and the winning candidate
Mr.. Lane-had to make it clear in the
campaign that he had no taste, touch
or tie-in with the Go Suspicion that
he might have was his one weakness.
In the senatorial contest the CIO
indorsed Governor O'Conor, who de-
feated Senator Radcliffe. and since
the primaries it has claimed credit
for his victory, which is silly. The
fact is that as soon as the Endorsement
was announced, Governor O'COnor
FASTENED to vaccinate against it by
declaring that it was "entirely unsoli-
cited" He pointedly refrained from
expressing qualification, asserted he
was not and would not be obligated
to any group or class The night be
fore the primaries he declared in ia
vor of "strong labor policy" and in
sisted that in all labor-managemcnt
controversies the "interests Of the
public come first"

Others feel that he acted from con
viction and with real courage; that
he put aside the possible political
effect upon himself and merely did
what he believed right. They cite his
signing of the Hobbs anti-racketeer-
ing bill as evidence of his independ-
ence As there is no way to prove
either view and as no one knows
what is in the Truman mind, he is
entitled to the benefit of the doubt.
Until otherwise shown he must be
credited with disinterested sincerity.
Also there is this to be said: Even
those who wanted him to sign both
the OPA and the Case bill concede
that his veto messages made out a
strong case for not doing so.

True, some of the Presidents poll
teal advisers are convinced that there
is zone more election in the CIO."
These are no more at heart for the
radical labor domination involved in
the administrator alliance of
the past ten years than the practical
Republicans of the Harding COOLIDGE
Hoover days were at heart for pro-
hibition It is with the former now as
with the latter then wholly a matter
of political cXpediency. In 1892 the
Republicans guessed terribly wrong
about prohibition. They did not real
izc that the country had really
turned, so they stuck to the dry side
and went down. An increasing num-
Der of experienced observers are con-
WINGED the present-day Democratic
politicians of the Robert Hanncgan
type are guessing just as badly about
the labor INDEPENDENTLY that of
the CLIO.

The Political Mill
Bv Gould Lincoln

Democratic Senator said off the record;
AN alliance may have to come"
Mr.. Churchill is not member of the
present British government However,
there is no scintilla of doubt that high
ranking members of that government
today have the same suspicious of
Russia and her aims that led Mr..
Churchill to make his Westminster COL
lege address
Critics of Britain in this country will
be quick to say that the English are
seeking-in this proposal of Mr.
Churchills-to have the United States
pull the chestnuts out of the fire for
them. They may overlook the fact that
the chestnuts may be ours as we'll as
Britains.
This country-through speech in the
Senate by Senator Vandenberg, Repub-
lican, of Michigan, and through speech
in New York by Secretary of State
Byrnes-has put Russia on notice that
there must be a clarif1cation of the
Soviet governments aims. While Mr..
Byrnes did not mention Russia by name
when he said that there must be a
stoppage of aggression by the "gnaw-
ing-away process" it was well under
stood he was referring to Russias in
cursions into other countries since the
end of the war. Further, Mr. Byrnes
has addressed a note to Russia support
ing China in her resistance to Russian
demands in Manchuria and supporting
Iran in her demand that Russian troops
be removed from her territory.
These differences with Russia may be
solved by this country acting alone or
through the United Nations If they
are not, it is clear from what Mr..
Churchill said, this country will have
the backing of Great Britain in seeking
solution.
Senator Vandenberg warned all Amer
leans that two great rival ideologies-
democracy in the West and commu-
nism in the East-today find themselves
face to face, and that their two greatest
spokesmen are the United States and
Russia. Only through mutual under
standing, he said, may common ground
be found for peace.
Russia is responsible for the iron
curtain" to which Mr.. Churchill alluded,
which has been drawn across the Euro
pean continent. She is responsible for
the fog of uncertainty. She Is in a
position, and she alone, to remove that
fog by frank declaration of her aims
and by the abandonment of the "gnaw-
lng-away process" of aggression.

decisively and courageously to unite
their strength behind the United Nations
Organization.
That this proposal comes from this
particular man is of more than ordinary
significance. Mr.. Churchill is not q
member OF the present British govern
ment, which is completely in the hands
OF the Labor party. But be is the leader
OF his majesty's loyal opposition, and as
such would make no such forceful pro-
nouncement on world affairs as he made
Tuesday without some authority gained
by consultation with the incumbent ad-
ministration in Britain.
The particular circumstances in which
Mr.. Churchill spoke are equally impor-
tant. He came to this country osten-
sibly on a vacation in the course of
which he appeared on the platform with
the President Of the United States and
advanced program which If not new
at least is far-reaching and significant.
~
President Truman, while avoiding any
public reference to the specific sugges-
tlonS OF the British statesman, lent tacit
approval by his presence at the delivery
OF proposals in which he had privately
concurred. Two or three weeks ago Mr..
Churchill spent more than three hours
with Mr.. Truman, discussing the speech
he was to make at Westminster, and
went away with Mr.. Truman's indorse-
ment of his sharp criticism Of Russia,
his proposals for an Anglo-American
'fraternal association" and his specific
desire for British and American sharing
OF naval and air force bases throughout
the world
Whether Mr.. Churchill's proposals
will be implemented remains to be seen.
The sharing Of naval and air force in
stallations would not be technically dif-
fcult to arrange, and would follow more
or less naturally Americas wartime CO.
operation with Britain.
There is little question that this can
be done within the framework of the
United Nations, and that, as Mr.
Churchill insists, it will lend tremen-
dous stability to world peace in the face
OF overriding threats from Russia and
international Communism
What is in doubt is the ability of some
American leaders to swallow the pill of
full-fedged alliance with Britain in
peacetime, even though it made possible
our victory in wartime

The visit to Washington of Leon

Socialist party and Premier of the
Popular Front" government of
France shortly before World War II.
although delayed by M. Blum's
illness" high lights a politico-eco-
nomic problem second in Importance
only to that of the Anglo-American
loan negotiations. Indeed, the two
questions are intimately connected;
If not technically, at least in their
larger implications.
There is no secret in what M.
Blum wants. France desperately
needs financial assistance and the
French leader is deemed the best
man to set forth his country's posi-
ton because of both his standing at
home and his prestige in this coun-
try. Apparently M. Blum's program
is twofold. He will request first of
all emergency credits to tide over
the financial crisis now facing
France. These credits, limited in
size, might be arranged through the
port-Import Bank. But he is also
expected to explore the matter of
a larger long term loan which will
be further negotiated by Andre
Philippe, French Minister of FL
nance, who is expected to reach
Washington with a corps of financial
and economic experts shortly after
M. Blum. provided the groundwork
is auspiciously laid.
The French government has
paved the way for both missions by
issuing a yellow Book" setting
forth the financial-economic back
ground The official thesis is that
these visits are in conformity with
the inter-Allied lease-lend agree
ment whereby the United States
and other signatories are jointly
committed to the furtherance of
freer world trade. The Yellow Book
contends that the granting of
financial aid by the United States
will powerfully further this objec-
tive by enabling France to balance
it's trade and modernize its indus
tries.
While specific figures are not
stated, it is understood that France
is seeking loans and credits to a
total of approximately So, 1000, ,ooO, 900.
The French believe that neither the
Breton Woods bank-whose entire
capital will be $4,000, O,OOO-nor
private American banks can make
loan of any such proportions.
Though, on the surface, the
French request is based wholly on
economic arguments. political i'm
plications are tacitly involved. It is
common knowledge that a break
down or collapse of Frances eco
nomic life. coupled with unbridled
imitation. would powerfully aid the

This Changing World
Bv Constantine Brown

Winston Churchill's speech Tuesday
afternoon at Westminster College at
Fulton, Mo-, was q strident call for a
far-reaching proposal that Britain and
the United States unite in "fraternal
association" for preservation of peace
within the structure of the United
Nations Organization.
The keystone of this "fraternal asso-
citation" would be virtual alliance by
the sharing of all naval and air force
bases throughout the world, opening the
bases Of each nation to the unrestricted
use of the other. This alliance, eventual
ly, he said, will be supplemented by the
principle of common citizenship" which
can be left to destiny.
Such q union of the English speaking
nations would provide the sinews of a
strong peace, Mr.. Churchill believes.
Neither the idea of an Anglo-Ameri-
can alliance nor the idea of common
citizenship is new What is new-and
important-about them is that they are
advanced at this particular time by this
particular man under these particular
circumstances.
Curiously enough, it was Mr.. Churchill
who, as Britain's Prime Minister in
June, 1910. attempted to keep falling
France in the war against Germany by
an offer of common Anglo-French citi-
zenship. Advanced earlier, such an idea
might have strengthened France and
helped her to cut out some of the can
GERS which had eaten her away. But
France had gone too far toward defeat.
Common citizenship was a wonderful
idea, but 1t was not enough to rally the
French. France went down and the offer
has never been renewed.
The proposal for an Anglo-American
'fraternal association" comes now at
time when both Britain and the United
States are confronted with a "gnawing
away" process of aggression, as Secre-
tary OF State Byrnes described it last
week, on the part of Russia. In Europe,
in the Middle East. In the Far East Rus
sian expansionism is in full swing, heed
less OF treaty obligations, needless of
the rights OF small neighbors, needless
OF the slender threat by which peace
hangs
There Is still time, Mr.. Churchill be-
lieves. to dispel the lowering clouds of
war If the English speaking nations act

Veterans Center Dilemma

The belated discovery by the Com
missioners of the unavailability of
100000 leftover blackout fund
which they had planned to use in
financing the Veterans Information
Center for two years beyond June 30
Is surprising and disturbing. Al
though Congress removed this fund
from District control and returned
it to the Treasury, with other civilian
defense money, about year ago,
the fact escaped notice of District
officials until this week. Meanwhile
the Commissioners had been ex-
panding the center and proceeding
with program of service to veter-
ans that would extend far beyond
the close of the present fiscal year,
when existing funds for the center
expire
The financial crisis suddenly con-
fronting the center comes at time
when it is beginning to operate with
gratifying efficiency. With Engineer
Commissioner Young acting as expe-
diter and co-ordinator, the several
agencies interested in advising and
assisting returning veterans have
developed a one-stop service sta
ton" which has saved hundreds of
veterans the inconvenience and an
noyance of running around from one
bureau to another in their quest for
information and action
The need for such service un-
doubtedly will be as great after
June 80 as it is today. 1t would be
serious mistake to close the center
while there is still an urgent de-
mand for its continued existence.
The Commissioners have indicated
that they may request that funds
for continuance of the center be in
eluded in a pending appropriation
bill. Since the time in which to
remedy their oversight is short. the
Commissioners should move prompt
ly to obtain the modest sum re-
quired to keep the center open after
July / next.
