Short Story
Little boy standing up in street car

at AL, who was sitting in the seat be-
hind:-"I know what you are"
Al" Y Hello Sonny, what's you
name?"
The little boys mother:. ."Sit down
Bobbie!"
Little boy, standing again.. My
names Bob-bee, Il know what you
are"
Al. Where did you get that pretty
coat?"
Little boy. my mommie bought it
for MEL know you are.
His mother. ."Now Bobby sit down
Little boy protesting:. But | don't
wanna sit down, mommie."
AL. ."How old are you, Bobbie?"
Little I'm four, going on FIVE

His mother. Put on your mittens

Lore
"My, how sweet Charmaine, so you
are the one, and only one. May you
never have your dreams and hopes
shattered, into tiny tid-bits, and scat
tered all about you, like stardust; the
pieces to elusive to put together again
May your scheme of happiness, ne'e1
be like my granny's patchwork quilt;
bright and colorful, but no two pieces
alike. May your best laid plans never
go awry.."
Sensitiuity
If | were sensitive about What / Am
it would be because | didn't believe in
myself. If | didn't believe in my self,
| would have no ingenuity, ambition
or personal initiative; being sensitive
still wouldn't help matters any. Al
Says: That's one mans opinion, now
what's yours?"
HATE
Senator Theodore C. BHbo and Con-
gresham John Rankin
Headlines Say:.."Are the worst the
South has to offer. No argument there.
Holding Carter, publisher of the Del
ta-Democrat Of Miss, warns that it
would be dangerously misleading to
present Rankin and Bilbo as ignorant,
violent men. and nothing more. l
agree with him, there are many more
appropriate, if not complimentary adj
~jectives that can be used to describe
these p%urveyors Of class hatreds.
Carter says Bilbo and Rankin are re-
preventative of the VOTING majority
Of their state. What we canot under
stand is how these misrepresentation
can be considered Duly elected and
Sworn into Office when half of the citi-
zens of their state are denied free vot-

Silencinq the President

William Green's assertion that the
emergency legislation now before
the Senate would result in slave
labor under fascism" should surprise
no one. The statement is absurd in
It's very extravaganza, but it is con-
sistent with the tactics used by the
AFL's mimeographing department
in resisting any legislation which
would impose restraints on unions.
OF a more serious nature is the
charge by Philip Murray, president
OF the CIO, that the legislation has
as its sole aim the destruction of
the labor movement of this Nation"
In other words, according to Mr..
Murray, the President, with a life
long record of friendliness to labor.
now has but one purpose in mind
to destroy labor.
This is an utterly fantastic &C
cusation. The CIO president ignores
the fact that the legislation applies
equally to labor and industry. He
does not mention that it would be
enacted only for limited period of
time and that it would have no
effect unless there should be strike
against the Government in an in
dustry affecting the whole national
economy. He conveniently forgets
that the President, after having
come to the aid of labor in the steel
strike and the automobile strike,
acted last Saturday only after a
railroad strike, for which Mr.. Muir
ray has no word of criticism, had
paralyzed the country There is but
one possible inference from all of
this: That the labor leaders are
bent upon maintaining the right
of strike as the supreme right of
the land, and that their wrath will
be visited upon any one who inter-
venes against them, even in the
most extreme situation, in behalf
of the public interest.
1t is a fair assumption that Mr..
Murray has sounded the keynote
of an organized labor drive to defeat
the President for reelection. Hoping
that time will obscure the truth, the
union leaders will repeat again and
again that Mr.. Truman tried to
destroy labor. Perhaps they will be
successful. Perhaps if they hear it
often enough, and if they are suf-
flciently forgetful of the real facts,
the people will come to believe this
false accusation. But if this is so, if
a voice which has been raised in
behalf of the rights of the people
can be silenced so easily, there is
little hope for the future of democ-
racy in this country.

Hospital Council

The Munger report of the Metro
politan Health and Hospital Survey
put its finger on particularly glar-
ing weakness of the hospital situa-
ton in the Metropolitan Area when
it stressed the complete absence of
effective, co-ordinated planning for
the unified coverage of hospital
needs" Each of the Is hospitals in
the District and nearby counties of
Maryland and Virginia has, in the
past, gone its own way, by and large
making its own plans, expanding
or restricting its services, remodel
ing or extending its plant and for
mulating its own policies-all with
little or no consideration of the
programs, policies and plans of
other institutions serving the same
general field. Such a haphazard Sys-
tenn of administering to the overall
disqualification requirements of a
fast-growing community paves the
way for overlapping of services in
some fields and neglect of impor-
tant needs in other fields
While it is true that from time
to time in years past there have
been proposals in local hospital cir
cles for a co-ordinating council of
the sort now taking form, yet it was
not until the Munger report was
made public that definite action was
taken to establish the National Cap
ital Area Hospital Council. Thus,
the hospital survey has shown again
that it was not lust another sur
vey," the findings of which are
doomed to gather dust in pigeon
hole. 1t has shown that an expert
study, conducted intelligently and
effectively, can produce construc-
tive results. And not the least of
these results, by any means, is the
organization of council which can,
in effect, do on regular basis what
the experts of the hospital survey
have done on special assignment
take stock of Washington's hetero-
geneous hospital resources and work
for coordination and much-to-
be-desired integration of the serv-
ices with the needs of the COM
munity as whole. The new council
deserves the whole-hearted support
of all hospitals in this vicinity. 1t
fills long-felt need in the Capital
area.

large exercise of discretion by the
beneficiaries of the political spend
ing.
Their one opportunity, at least so
far as the presidential election is
concerned, lies in the finding of new
loopholes in the law, and in this
connection the announcement by
Senator Hatch that he is studying the
existing law in the light of the
threat from Mr.. Whitney and the
scheduled large expenditures by the
CIO-PAC in primary elections should
be welcomed In a democracy no
group should be permitted to influ-
ence elections through improper
expenditure of money, and this is
true regardless of whether the money
is taken from stockholders by the
heads of corporations or from work.
ers by the heads of unions.

Misplaced
rom the Boston Globe.


In Europe displaced persons present
many problems for the victorious Allies.
Here in this country there is a some
what different situation. A vast num-
ber, perhaps running up into the mil
lions, have made up their minds that
they are themselves misplaced persons.
In many large city former agricul-
tural workers are either seeking jobs
or holding them. Before the war, in
ertia kept them down on the farm.
But the demand for machine produc-
tion in wartime put them on the as
sembly line at much better pay. They
do not care for country life.
When the shipyards of Maine sought
workers there was response from the
woods. Reluctance to return to logging
camps has made many try to find a
substitute for shipbuilding.
Down South. as Josephus Daniels
pointed out recently, it is idle to expect
return to prewar conditions, because
vast number of men and women feel
that they left the ramshackle novels
forever.
The amazing thing is that so many
of the misplaced are managing to DO
better for themselves.

On the Record
BY Dorothy THOMPSON

many union members who would like
protection against the overweening au-
thority of their boss-leaders; many who
suffer greater losses through strikes
than they ever recoup through the raises
thus won: many who contribute out of
their pockets dues, sometimes eXorbi-
tant sums, to funds over which they
have no control: many who will be
furious that their money collected for
other purposes should be spent on poll
tical campaigns. In trade-union meet
ings they are silent. for to speak against
the recommendations of the leaders ap-
pears to be treason and can be danger
Gus. But they vote as American citizens:
the vote belongs to each individual per-
son, not to his leaders; it is a secret vote,
too. And it may not turn out just as
their leaders threaten. as Mr. Lewis
though he controls a union. has never
been able to control the politics Of its
members.
Joseph Curran of the National Mari
time Union and Michael j. Quill of
the Transport Workers Union did not
add to the alleviatiop of the crisis in
the CIO rally Sunday evening, accord
ing to press reports. Mr.. Curran told
delegates that seamen and longshore-
men would go on strike June Is, re
gardless of what kind of repressive
legislation they pass in Congress" Mr..
Curran has thus announced that he
will defy the law. If there is law
which he dehes, he will be a lawbreaker,
ie., a felon, or criminal, and will have
to be so treated if not merely the law
but law itself is to be maintained.
What is happening is an aggressive
struggle for power in domestic affairs
as in international affairs, and for
pie in the century of the common
man" are mere materiel for one side or
the other. No one cares for them,
neither their union leaders, nor the
opponents. as history goes trampling
over them. Our country is actually be-
coming a battle-ground for the private
wars on the model of the Chinese of
marauding bandit generals.
The concept of general welfare is
lost sight of So is common sense and
the idea of there being any sense COM
mon to all men. But that is the basis
of all free democracy.
Nothing, in fact, is. left to the people
except the protection of law, while
law itself, legislated in the hysterical
atmosphere of crises, becomes increas-
ingly arbitrary, framed not to create
new relationships, in reason, but to pre-
vent this or that; TO close doors after
the horse has gone instead of to build
new structure to house this Nation in
peace.
