On Putting Wars Corpse Away

There is an old saying about cleanliness
and godliness, but survey of the country
today would seem to indicate nothing
more than the recent presence of the
blustery gods of war. We see merely
where deity in this sense left off and
something less than ''godliness" set in.
Certainly clealiness is not involved at
this stage for cities and countrysides both
show too many tattered edges of the war
regime-the Uttered odds and ends, the
blowing chaff, the unfettered and unset
settled trash of war. Downtown streets
may pass the test of a cursory inspection
for this is the obvious focus of that sort
of policy tidying up which sweeps the all
too-apparent surfaces and leaves the
dirt around the edges.
A more scrutinizing survey would show
the same tendency towards drifted silt,
litter, and scarecrow waste flapplng
around the edges and the corners. Cities
for the most part reveal a relaxed attitude
towards litter and the countryside is
something like Gretels pathway into the
deepening woods of wartime paralysis: :
wherever the troops passed the mark re-
mains in garish trails of waste, while ci-
villains, on the other hand, have been
prompt to follow the example of uni
versal litter.
OF course much of this filth which
makes shabby trail across the country
side must be put down to the lull between
war and peace and the consequent prob
lem of readjustment. Cities find them
selves graphing with a paralysis of serv-
ice which is still evident in the road to
reconversion; and ultimately, returning
balance and re-emphasis of peacetime
responsibilities will restore civic pride to
properly functioning levels.
Nevertheless, there is room for re-em-
phasis now, too, of those primary attri-
butes which make themselves manifest in
such qualities as pride, -mindedness
and cleanliness.
Individually we can take stock and cor
rect slip-shod wartime tendencies which
see haste and need of all-out effort indif-
ferent to some of the laxities around us.
Several cities have charged citizens them
selves with the responsibility for litter
and, in view of this, if we assume that
cleanliness starts with the individual, we
should be able TO collectively put our
larger household back in order.
At any rate let's get some of the dirt
out of the corners and remove those
greater eyesores which don't even bother
with seeking edges for concealment-but
flap their scarecrow odds and ends and
trailing bits in Americas public places
Let's put wars corpse away and give
peace a clean new start!

The Nations Business

Newsmen covering the current session
of parliament report the English legisla-
tors are working hard. and are making
the journalists work correspondingly
hard
In fact, according to the report it is
rare for the house ito rise" until 9:15
p. m. or 9:45. The good correspondent
naturally stays on too-he won't risk
being scooped.
All of which reminds us of our own
parliamentary body, and the all too COM
mon failing of its members of not only
not staying until 9:15 p. m.-but of not
appearing at sessions at all.
Congressman who won't report for the
nations business are not like the news

lament They will risk being scooped.

Letting the Jobs Go Begging

Put two sets of facts together. and
they don't always add up. At least one
finds himself far from any conclusion
when he tries to reconcile the following
developments from the headlines OF the
past week.
1.-The United States is nearing the
crest of anticipated unemployment, with
5000. 600 now set as the expected peak
figure for March.
2-Sixty-six ships, 19 of them troop
carriers, are held up at Atlantic ports
for lack of crews.
There was little news in the first fact,
beyond confirmation of the recent view
that unemployment would not run as
high as originally expected; but, coupled
with the second fact. there was definitely
something to talk about. Aside from the
question of delaying shipments of troops
home there was ample room for believing
that unemployment could be much less.
Figures supplied by the War Shipping
Board indicated this, for the present
shortage of manpower-termed the worst
in the history of the Merchant Marine
requires the immediate enrolment OF
1000 officers and 10000 men.
These figures themselves told a story,
but they were not alone Elsewhere there
have been other cries of serious labor
shortages, and frequently there have been
references in the press TO refusal OF GER
tain classes of employees to take available
Jobs because of a desire for higher wages.
Jabs have been begging, and essential
services are lacking while the nation con-
tinued TO place set estimate on expect
ed" unemployment.
Generally. these conditions do not sup
ply definite answer for themselves, but
they point TO an apparent weakness In
our social structure. This is the guaranty
of too many securities against the age-old
law and need for going to work. While
some lag and gap in the labor market
was TO be expected because of CORE
spending gap in the shift-over from war
to peacetime industry, it is obvious that
we have let the gap expand itself through
dependence upon our social security
mechanisms.
The mechanisms themselves are essen
tial, of course, and so are the securities.
But. just as it is wrong TO set definite
expectancy" on something negative. il is
wrong TO let the securities run away with
themselves. They need teeth, so that
they will be respected and preserved, and
il is time we overhauled bit and set
new premium on the will to work
We must think in terms of plugging the
gap a bit with honest labor because mega
tive expectancy and confirmed depend
ency are the wrong sort of bedfellows for
economic and social health. They weigh
together at two extremes against the
security at the center, and if we are not
firmer in our national will to see things
through they will pull the whole balance
off into an equally negative circle of de-
cline
That's when social security inverts it
Il .~sNx
Well administered and properly respected
as insurance instead of license, it is ma
tons greatest asset Poorly administered
and viewed incorrectly, it abrogates the
responsibility of all men to work and
weakens the national will to function. No
law in itself can be substituted for integ
rity and mankind's need of character.

AGENCIES OF JUSTICE PERVERTED

IT is tragedy that the government managing the
bituminous coal industry reverted to the dScredlted
practices of depvg workers of their rights by the nnc
tOn process.
When the government steps into the field of private in
dusty and responsibility for Industrial operations
it transfers it's activities from the political to the economic
sphere 1t should not then rely the arbitrary privilege of
sovereignty which places the states above the law and make
justice favornot right When the government becomes
employer in industry it should comply with laws and
ces prescribed by Congress for all other employers This
principle is important to protect the rights of employers
those of workers. Any government administrator who
operates industry and tries to hedge himself about with
governmental sovereignty is merely providing cloak for
arbitrary denial of the rights of workers and all others
cened.
For more than so years the American Federation Of
Labor has sought regulation and limitation of the of the
injunction which made courts Strkebeang agents Of
employers Judgemade law deprived workers of their legal
and economic rights and disaed them that they

of grievances and the right to control their labor

Instead of providing evenhanded justice for both parties

TRADE IJNIONJSM

IN ALL of the workers struggles since Capitalism became
the dominant and controlling power in industrial eco
nomy, Trade Unonism has been the permanent and
conscious factor that has helped the worker through his
difficulties and out of dspar 1t has been the seed ground
from which long needed industrial reforms and justice for the
working class have sprung.
Trade Unionism therefore, must always be the method
of expression the vehicle which contains and conveys
aggregate FORM the expressed will and needs of the workers.
Without it, they not only become nartcuate but
peey deprived of the power to their meaning
Such loss only mean that the worker will in time
be subject to the lowest and most demorazng form of
petition for his livelihood the competition of against
for the chance labor at to which the employer
alone agrees
Such competitive system cannot fail to mpe the pur-
chase of commodities in the cheapest market and with Cap
italsm Labor more often than not is commodity reduced
to the cheapest price Of asomethng to be bought cheap
~ as human resistance allows
Thus, where Trade Unonism fails to convince collective
bargaining is deprived of It's lawful right to participate equal
y in establishing fair agreed to by both the employer
and the workers AS result the rate of pay for the worker
is almost without exception below the scale upon which he
could live and either he his dependents slowly reduced
pvaon and actual want extraneous means of earning
a living had to be found
