STRIKE LEGISLATION

Congressman have come back
to Washington with a strong de
sire to do something about the
current strikes. But almost al
the proposals require extended
hearings and will surely run into
prolonged debates. Therefore
whatever their merits, they will dc
nothing about the current strikes.
If they could be enacted into law,
their effects would be felt in the
future the more ambitious pro-
posals, like Senator Byrd's for
example, not at the earliest for
months.
By that time this particular rash
of strikes will almost certainly be
over. For these strikes are the un-
happy result of our having no or
derby way of doing what neverthe-
less had to be done: namely to
convert wages, prices, and jobs
from war conditions to postwar.
If Congress is to contribute any.
thing to prevent, shorten, ano
moderate these conversion strikes,
it must act quickly. To act quickly
it must concentrate on measures,
in themselves useful, which raise
no issue about which Congress will
have a long debate.
These specifications would be
met, it seems to me, by a bill
which gave statutory approval te
fact-finding boards like the one
which has just made it's report or
the General Motors dispute. This
first bill should not contain the
controversial elements of the Presi
dents proposal-namely the power
to subpoena individuals and rec
,ords, and the cooling off period.
These may or may not be good
devices. They will certainly be
! debated bitterly and at length
For that reason, if for no other,
the first measure should be con-
fined to fact-finding pure and
simple.
Such a measure would surely be
useful. 1t would establish clearly
the principle that there is public
interest in large industrial dis
putes.
The board, which represents the
public. would have no power to en-
force its judgment. But it would
have the power to counterfeit the
transformation and prejudice, the
propaganda and the cunning tricks
which the parties to these disputes
employee for the purpose of horn.
smuggling the public This may pos
sibly prevent some strikes those
where one of the factions has such
bad case that it could not stand
public scrutiny. 1t should shorter
other strikes by narrowing the
issue. It should moderate all strike.
somewhat by taking the heat ou
of the argument, and reducing the
moral Inflammation and the ideo
logical self-righteousness which
men love so much, especially whel
they are really arguing abou
money.

TODAY and TOMORROW
by WALTER LIPPMANN

| second phase-it should then, il
seems to me, fix its attention or
measures to prevent strikes in the
essential public services. Strikes
which isolate communities, or de-
prive them of light, heat, power,
transportation, medical care, and
essential foods, are in a class
apart, and there can be and should
be no doubt that the public inter
est is paramount. Here the people
have an indubitable right to en-
force peace upon the owners and
the employees.
Soldiers. policemen, firemen
have no right. to strike. The fact
that they are employed by the
state whereas the workers in pub
lie utilities are employed by pri-
vately-owned companies has to be
taken into consideration. But pub
lie utilities are not private enter
prises. They are goNernmert-creat-
ed monopolies, which exist by vir-
tue Of a public franchise, and they
are privately-owned and managed
only because the. people prefer to
let this kind of. public business
be carried on in this way. Those
who own them, manage them,
and work in them are in fact pub
lie servants, and Congress and the
State Legislatures would be fully
entitled to legislate on that prin-
ciple.
No one is compelled to invest his
money in a public utility. No one
is drafted to work for a public
utility. But if he invests in one
or takes a job in one, then it might
we'll be stated in the law that the
service may not be interrupted,
that disputes must be settled with
out interrupting the service. 1t
this means compulsory arbitration,
let it,, and anyone who dislikes it
should not go into the utility bust
ness. For it would be the con-
dition of his investing and CT his
being hired that the public serv-
ice must 60 on.
Congress might well give its at
tention-though this would call for
careful investigation-to the pos
sibilities of sprofit-sharing. There
are well-founded objections both
from the point Of view OF labor
as such and of the general public
against the kind Of profit-sharing
which would in effect make capt.
tai and labor partners in a
monopoly against the consumer.
But a modified form of profit
sharing, such as Mr.. Eric Johnston
has inaugurated, is not open to
these objections, and 1t LOOKS
promising.
F If on investigation it turns out
to be as good as it looks, congress
might well consider giving EN-
ployers inducements, under the TAX
laws, to adept approved schemes
of this sort.
