The Mails Do Not Move

To many Americans the most dis
llluSioning single effect of the rail-
road strike is the Governments
refusal to accept certain classes of
mail for transportation. The move
ment of the mails has assumed an
almost NEUROLOGICAL sanctity in this
country 1t has been regarded as
a function of Government above and
beyond the reach of any man-made
interference. The relatively new
concept of the right" to strike is
that this right supersedes the Gov
ernment's duty to move the mails.
President Cleveland probably made
the greatest contribution to the ira
dition regarding the Governments
obllgatlon to move the mails. The
so-called Pullman strike of 1894. be-
ginning in the Pullman works near
Chicago, developed into a general
railroad strike when Eugene V. Debs
American Railway Union refused to
handle Pullman cars. President
Cleveland's Attorney General, Rich
ard Olney, sought and obtained an
Injunction forbidding Debs and the
union from in any way or manner
interfering with, hindering, OBJ
structlng or stopping" the business
OF the railroads in Chicago and the
President sent troops to enforce the
injunction. Debs and others were
found guilty of contempt and SEN
fenced to JAIL a sentence later up
held by the Supreme Court. This
resort to government by injunc-
ton" repeated in other cases from
the time of the Clayton Act in 1914
through the tWenties, brought about
passage of the NorriS-La Guardia
antI-injunction law in 1882, under
which injunctions against striking
labor unions are forbidden except in
certain narrow circumstances.
Defending his use of troops to
enforce the injunction, President
Cleveland said that Federal troops
were sent to Chicago in strict ac-
cordance with the Constitution and
laws of the United States, upon the
demand of the Post Office Depart
ment that obstruction to the mails
should be removed and upon the
representation of the judicial officers
OF the Upited States that process of
the Federal courts could not be
executed through the ordinary
means and upon abundant proof
that conspiracies existed against
commerce between the States"
President Truman has by statute
been denied the use of at least some
OF the powers exercised by Cleveland.

On the Record
By Dorothy Thompson

In the history of the revolutionary
movements of Europe the student bodies
OF the universities have played an enor-
nous role. Representing, as they do.
the most politically conscious section
of youth, they invariably have belonged
10 the advance guard of social and po-
litical change, and have been, as it were
a barometer of the future.
This is true of contemporary Europe,
The first uprising in Prague against
the German occupation occurred in
the Charles University, for which scores
OF Czech students paid with their lives.
The ranks of every underground move
ment were recruited from UNIVERSITY
students. Even in Germany, the first
public demonstration against the Nazis
occurred in the University of Munich
led by the Schoell brothers, martvreo
for their courage
The role of students in the liberation
movements of Poland is particular,
impressive
In 1881, the first insurrection against
the Russian tsars began in the univer-
sites. Suppressed, youthful Polish le-
glons retreated to France through Ger
many, and were greeted by all Europe s
youth. Some of their songs passed into
the poetry of all Western European
countries
In 1648, when the liberal national
revolutions swept Germany and Hun
gary, the universities were again in
Volvcd, including the Polish.
In 1863, when the second insurrec-
ton against CZarist Russia occurred
university students were in the lead.
In 1905 revolution swept East Europe
and Russia. and then Russian anti
lsarlst students joined hands with Po
Ilsh student comrades.
In 1914 all the universities of Poland
joined in the movement for independ
ence.
In 1916 Russian students demonstrat

trlke@ Against the Public
BY Raym mOnd M0Iev

-..- current labor situation brings
out sharp distinction in strikes. When
the supply of commodity or service is
low, strike is really against price
control. When commodity or service
is plentiful, strike is against falling
prices. Most strikes over the past year
have been of the first kind. Strikes
which may be expected six months or a
year from now may we'll be against a
full market.
John L. Lewis seems to have been the
first to see the advantage of striking or
threatening to strike against the urgent
needs OF country at war. Hence, his
first gestures were made long time
ago. Other leaders followed the pattern
of striking against scarcity, once the
wartime strike pledge was over.
AS long as supply is thin or nonexist-
ent or as long as price is of no signifi-
canoe. both labor and management can
compensate wage increases by price
boosts Some companies which settled
with labor while the GIN strike was in
progress took the position that, since
they had no inventory and since nobody
could compel them to produce without
a profit, price increase was academic
anu oiiCy dSACCO W wage INCREASES. But
the same companies, if they had been
in a competitive market with plenty of
inventory, would have fought to the
finish. And their chances of winning in
such situation would have been favor
able.

All this is known to union leaders
who are striking against the time when
shelves will be filling up.
In the case of the railroad union
leaders, the pattern is easy to see. The
railroads are just emerging from the
tight transportation situation created by
war and demobilization. The pressure
on railroads is tightening every day.
Trucks, buses and private cars will be
increasing in production. This is the
last moment to gain the advantage of
thin market. The walkout Is really
a strike against the controls of the
Government.
