Army Chief of Staff, that RESPONSE
bility for governing the former en-
emy peoples be assumed by civilians
as soon as possible.
Mr.. McDermott said lack of per-

the announcement that there is no

into effect.
Proposals which had been under

Congress is threatened with having soon to face one

Fiibustering is confession of two weaknesses. The
buserers do not have the votes at the outset and they
do not have arguments capable of winning votes They
are weak in numbers and in arguments Their position
is weak that they admit at the opening that they
have hope of convincing anybody of the rghtness
worth of their And they take advantage of tech
nicaes in the rules to establish government of numeri-

The flbusterers idea of states rights is the right to
discriminate against the Negro any way they see fit
Moreover they confident of the weakness of their
position of the fact that the vast majority of Americans

battled it with all their might on
the floor.
Their ardor was not dampened
at earley indications that the anti
labor bills would pass the Senate
by a large vote. 1t only induced
them to fight the harder, knowing
they were fighting for a just cause.
Although the daily press nor the
wire news services acknowledged
them, these two Senators made
some outstanding and factual
speeches against the nefarious bills.
They reminded their colleagues
of the progress made in this nation
by organized labor in bettering
the welfare of the great majority,
benefits enjoyed not only by mem-
bers of organized labor but by
millions who greatly Outnumber
those in the ranks of organized
labor.
The past record of Organized
labor i'm accomplishments of benefit
to our people and our nation as a
whole is a cOmmendable one.
Which is more than can be said
of the action of the majOrities in
the House and Senate of our 18th

Backgrounds
and
Backwaiers
BY RUTH TAYLOR

The trouble with most of us is
that we don't stop to see what we
are looking at-we completely miss
the background of the picture in
our first hasty glance. The bold
outlines in front are all that catch
our eye. We ignore the fact that
what we see stands out BECAUSE
of what lies behind it.
They say that history repeats it.
self. Against the back drop of time
what befallS us is not unique.
Nothing ever happens that has not
happened before. AS Walter Lipp-
mann once said-if those who start
revolutions would only realize the
fate of those who preceded them,
they would probably stay at home
and tend to their knitting.
The tide of history rises and
ebbs-as immutably as the tides of
the sea. Little by little man learns
to progress. Little by little he de-
mandS more from life. There are
eddies and backwaters in history,
of course, but they are temporary
and never block for long the, on
rush of the main current.
Reaction and radicalism are
but the backwash of the tidal
march of man. Again and again
they have appeared in history only
to be overthrown by a revolution
of the left or right (led by the
young, for only the young make
revolutions). Then the revolution
in turn eddied into nothing and a
period of steady hard working life
succeeded it. When prosperity be-
