A Thought For Today
Washington, D. c., and the Vote

'"Ths Government is committed to the democratic prin
pe that Il Is for the dependent peoples themselves TO de-
eide what their status shall be-. That Is the opinion of
President Truman with respect to sgovernment for Puerto
Rico, Hawaii. Alaska, the Virgin Islands and the Philip
pines.
In his recent message to Congress he also made den
e plea that the District Of Columbia should longer be
treated as dependent He asked the Congress to
take adequate steps that citizens of the United
States denied their franchise merely because they
reside ut the National Capitol President Truman is 1000
right on this ISSUE
But. the misnamed Capper-Sumners constitutional
amendment will not help the people of the District of Column
ba Representative Summers repeated that opinion on the
radio, few days ago He said the proposed amendment
would not be demand upon Congress- The Congress would
simply be able to do as il pleased--even nothing.
the other hand the President meets the issue square
~ I'VE should take adequate steps to assure that citizens
the United denied their franchise merely
because they reside the National Capitol The Congress
repudated the Constitution and passed laws in the 1905
denying the people the right to vote All Congress has to
do pass good laws to stolen rights to the people
of the Distrc-the rights are enjoyed by the
States and asked for in behalf of dependent terri
tories
Strangely inconsistent the Washington newspapers and
the Citizens Associations and the business interests haven't
opened their columns their faces to kill this worthless
Capper-Sumners Resolution That scheme in form or
another has been swallowed by the people of Washington
d. C.-they deserve to be choked.
Maybe Congress isn't much to blame after ALL when
the only champion that has gone bat this issue
Congress take adequate steps to that citizens OF
the United States not denied their franchise merely be-
cause they reside the National Capitol said President
Truman The people of the District still facing this
issue hndend-to They will have to turn facefOrwardor
remain in their doghouse

THE COSTS OF STRIKES

New York Tines
Strikes are costly 10 al groups
in the community. The workers
suffers a loss Of income. The en-
ployer has reduced profits. The
consumer suffers Inconvenience and
must forego products urgently de-
sired. This is all so obvious that II
scarcely needs repetition. What is
less obvious Is that the cost involv-
ed Is often excessively great In
Relationship to the rewards TO be
won.
An illustration IS found In the
cost Of the present steel strike 20
the workers. The companies have
offered an increase Of Is cents an
hour. which would be the largest
increase ever received by these
workers. This strike has been called
TO obtain an additional 3 l-2 cents
an hour. If the l5-cent offer were
accepted, steel workers would earn
about Si.29 an hour. On the basis
OF their own demands they would
earn Sl.32 Ia an hour. Every hours
work that is lost because Of the in
sistence upon an additional 3 IL
cents an hour costs the steel work
er at least 81 20. 1t would take him
thirty-seven hours of work at the
additional l-2 cents an hour 10
make up for the loss Of one hour S
pay of Sl.29. In other words. II the
steel worker is unemployed for one
forty-hour week il will take him
thirty-seven full weeks at the
higher rate to make up for the time
lost. II the strike lasts for two
weeks it will take Seventy-four
weeks to make up for the time lost.
If the strikers were out fer a month
it would take l48 weeks, or almost
three full years. before the earn
ings lost during the strike were re-
couped.
These figures Of course, do not in
themselves establish the merit Of
the offer made by the steel COM
panies. They do not in themselves
diSproye Mr.. Murray's claim that
more could have been paid. But
they do call attention 10 a factor
which Is frequently lost sight Of
when unicn labor rejects a major
gain in favor Of a strike.
The Waterbury Democrat. [volume] (Waterbury, Conn.) 1917-1946, 1946-02-02

the O. NJ management amounts TO saying there
was no collective bargaining"
In brief O. NJ. after six weeks elaboration
fused consider the unions 30 percent increase
demand, even when told that If the company could
not afford to pay without increasing prices the de-
mands would be scaled down. When asked If a one
cent increase could be paid without increase in
prices, the union told this none Of its bust
ness.
Wanting 20 look al the books grew on; OF that.
The union didn't want 10 look at the books, says
Reuther All it wanted the basic cost data on
auto production as it related TO wages. hours and
working conditions-6ata probably contained three
or four sheets Of paper and known only to the COM
pany.
g. NJ counter proposals have been: First. moth
ing; then IS 4S-hour work week; then, 10 cents
and finally 1872 cents hour increase, after the
strike called
When it became apparent negotiations were al
stalemate the union suggested conciliators from
the Labor Department. For week the management
refused TO admit them TO negotiations The second
week they were admitted observers 70 sit in
corner and say nothing.
The final effort at settlement came in a union

Mems Inhumanity

Gradually the whole story of the with its many
qualifications being laid bare The atomic bomb has held
the stage of public for weeks Now another
and equally sinister weapon is being discussed
It is officially announced enemy scientists had modified
disease germs for fearful role in they unable
to with ordinary methods and weapons As in all haz
ards with which the nation attacked threatened
American scientists had prepared defense
Details of this defense remain top military secret
For that it cannot be announced what form the at
tack might have taken But is not hard to imagine the
scourge of peence which could have been put under way
Water supplies would have offered opportunities In
their report the War Department American biological
scientists point this potential weapon of cannot
be discounted in future conflicts The nations security is
endangered unless the threat successfully met and over
come.
It is not Immediately recalled what Robert Burns had
in mind when he MANS inhumanity to man makes
countless thousands mourn But certain is the phrase
is as true today it than century ago. when
the great poet framed it, 1t is dscouraging to realize
disease germs may be enlisted with all the other fearsome
devices for elimination of the human
