PEACE OVER DETROIT

Washington, May 6.-It is we'll
known that, traditionally, Detroit
has been the "hot corner" in indus
trial disputes, with the auto work
ers the ones the nation watches.
Therefore, it meant more than just
another contract signed when Cen
eral Motors made pattern a cOu-
pie of weeks ago and carried it
with 10000 electrical
workers and later with 225,000 auto
builders and a smaller group OF
rubber workers.
The workers covered, it is true,
are not centered in Detroit. Rather,
they are scattered from coast to
coast. Still, it was the Detroit
setting that made the picture. For
once let Detroit get the credit for
sizeable move on the side of peace
between management and labor-it
has had the blame more than once
in the past for starting labor war.
Sound collective bargaining did it
for General Motors, with a mini
mum of the angry and bitter words
that made a settlement with the
UAW-CIO so difficult a year ago.
There were few theatricals and
small delay in reaching an agree
ment. The union membership prob
ably would not have stood for de-
lay, i'm this instance, with hundreds
| of thousands of dollars slipping
away from pay envelopes each day.
In the face of a substantial ma
tional outcry for lower prices, it
remains to be seen whether the
IL 1-2 cents, plus six paid holidays,
is too large a figure. 1t certainly
will add to the difficulty of gaining
general reductions. But it is sta
bilizer. The picture for the future
is much clearer. There has been
definite contribution to the coun-
try's welfare in that respect.

If YOU DO

By T. A. Hall, Milford
Unworthy creature tho / be,
Not fit to speak Gods name,
Yet | know He cares for me,
And He cares for you the same.
There's nothing in my life to
boast
About, nor neither to brag.
If l had my dues I'd roast,
In He'll as a filthy rag.
I don't know why some just walk,
The way of sin and shame,
You don't ever hear them talk,
About God but to profane His
name.
don't know why some just curse,
Like silly slobbering fool;
There isn't anything that's worse,
Then being the DEVILS tool.
The Devil sets his cunning snare,
And catches quite few,
He'll catch and drag you, too,
down there.
If you do what he says do.
Turn your cursing into Praise,
Praise for Gods tender love,
You'll find your heart will be
ablaze.
With that flame from Heaven
above.
l don't try to buy my way,
To mansions in the sky,
But / will do my best today,
To point you to yours on high.
God bought my soul at an awful
price.
He paid the same for you,
And for us both that will suffice,
If we do what He says do.
THAT is Repent and believe the
Gospel.-Mark 1:150 II

MORE AIRPOWER'; FOR WHAT!

Congress has been asked to ap-
propriate $700,000,000 to increase
aircraft strength for the Army and
Navy. Some Washington corre-
spondents report that it is not
enough-and they figure out that
the above sum is merely the equiv
alent of about half it's value of
money in 1910. Therefore, they ex
plain that a piddling 500 million
dollars means there will be a
shrinking of airpower that will re-
suit in "perils to the national de-
fense." Boo.
The records of the airplane COM
panies show that the industry has
been getting down to what for
mer President used to call NOR
malcy'. Evidently there are enough
of these mechanical birds for
peacetime purposes, and if the Uni
ted States is expecting or hoping
to maintain the peace there seems
to be no validity to suggestions and
arguments that the next war must
be fought out with planes.
AS martter of fact the United
States is the most powerful nation
in the World-and only Russia dis
putes that fact; the Soviets look
with suspicion and terror upon us
and our future plans to establish
peace throughout the round, round
World.
If we shoufd accidentally run
into 'perils", we still have the Sc.
cret of the atom-and we would use
it in our defense, without any fears
concerning "airplane shrinkagt

fense." incidentally, the French

such as high government officials,

come to buy the goods.
This, Mr.. Fischer goes on, is
one reason why Russians are not
permitted the truth about the out
side world, and why they are de-
luged. through the. controlled So
Wet press, with propaganda to the
effect that the U. S. is in a terrible
flx. Even within the country, peo-
pie cannot travel without permits
which are issued only for reasons
which serve the governments pur-
poses, and they are never permit
ted outside the borders unless they
/ must go on State business-and
very few Russians are engaged in
top-level State business. The Rus
sian leaders are the most insular
in the world. Of the members of
the Politburo, the political aristro-
cracy which runs Russia, lock,
stock and barrel, only one. Molo-
tov, has ever been abroad. This in
sularity in itself breeds suspicion
Mr.. Fischer thinks that the con-
tinuous propaganda, emanating
from the Kremlin, to the effect
that Russia is in imminent danger
of attack and is surrounded by cap
italist enemies bent on her de-
struction, is principally for inter
nal consumption, and is employed
for very practical purpose. Tha
purpose is to make an exhausted
people work hard. Any people will
put out maximum effort when i
honestly believes the country is il
danger. And Russians are care
fully kept at a distance from visit
ing foreigners who might cOnvinc
them that the U. S. and Englan,
have no intention of waging ag

The Russian leaders, Mr.. Fische
feels, are afraid-one of his chap
ters is called ''The Scared Men il

assassination. They are afraid O
counter-revolution. They are afrai
of the outside world of which the
,, know so little. This has a stron
bearing on what we regard a
Russian obstinacy and doubl
dealing.

The Societ Union has furnished
the correspondents and commenta-
tors with a field day. The list of
books on Russia grows like a mois-
tened sponge. The variance in
points of view is enormous. James
Burnham, in his THE Struggle for
the World" argues dramatic and
dismaying thesis to the effect that
Russia is hell-bent on world dom
ination, that clash between capi
talism and communism Is newt
able, and that the u. S. must pur-
sue a policy of tough Imperialism.
Edgar Snow, in his stain Must
Have Peace" says that the two
opposed ideologies can get along
together in the same world, and
that economic collaboration with
Russia should be a basic American
policy. All manner of opinion be-
tween these poles has been aired
over the radio and on the printed
page.
One of the most interesting ef-
forts to appraise Russian objec-
lively is John Fischer's why
They Behave Like Russians
which is a Book-of- -the-Month Club
choice for May. Mr.. Fischer, re-
freshingly, makes no pretense OF

fairs-indeed, he quotes with ap-
prevail Paul Winterton's dictum
that there are no experts on Rus.

is impressive-a steel industry a
least equal in capacity to ours, a.
increase in machine tools to on
level, and similar expansion in al
basic industries. But just how wei
this can be accomplished is
question. According to Mr.. Fisch
er, the Russian worker is in pitt

his American counterpart. AS a
example, he estimates the aver
