be in position to run his own business.
The labor bosses would really be in
the drivers seat, which, of course, is
what they want. Obviously, the only
way in which such agreements could
be had with industry would be
through governmental coercion. The
demand that the President call a con-
ference fits in with this strategy"
In such conference the CIO would
present its plan on prices, profits and
production agreements with the hope
that the Administration, through
political pressure in an election year,
would be compelled to support it. If,
with this support, it could be put over
it would be a great victory and the
union-Government partnership be
again firmly established. If it failed,
either through lack Of Administration
support or because of industrial re-
fusal despite such support, then,
again, a fine publicity attack upon
the arrogant and greedy" employers
could be made.

Therefore, asserts this interpreter,
the new CIO Strategy" is to seek an
arrangement with industry by which
agreements on prices, profits and pro-
duction shall be written into all union
management contracts. This of course,
would practically put the union in a
dominant position. Once they got
such agreements no employer would

Altogether this new STRATEGY"
seems smart, but it is too easily seen
through to get far. The idea is said
to have been taken from a recent
book by Mr.. Chester Bowles. If, true,
this would not commend it too highly
AT any rate, Mr.. Truman has not re-
sponded to the conference demand as
yet and those who know him best
have no notion that he will. For one
thing, they say, he knows now that
labor Encouragement conferences with
out preconference agreement upon
programs are the bunk.
The labor boss in whom he had the
most confidence was Mr.. Hillman. 1t
was through him he cleared his vice
presidential nomination in 1914 and
to him he felt a real obligation. To
the others he feels none at all. He
knows that they and their radical as
sociates continually sheer at him as
too small to be President, disparage
his efforts and misrepresent his mo-
tives-even while asking and accept
ing favors from HMM brief are
thoroughly hostile. If they had a good
plan, he would not reject it because
of these things. But because of them
he would have to be very sure it was
good. He is-and has been-say his
friends, a strong friend of labor but
he has not much belief in the charac-
ter of most of the current labor
leaders.
