On the Other Hand
Is John L. Lewis Cause or Merely
Victim of Present Coal Situation?

injunction because of some subtle
influence exerted by their leader

Goldsborough. On the other hand
the men may really believe they
are doing what Mr.. Lewis wants
them to do when they disregard
what he tells them to do. If so, it
a hell of way to run a railroad
or union.
So the question Of which is the
creature of the other, Mr.. Lewis
or the union, cannot be deter
mined with any assurance. But
it can be said without any doubt
that both right now are the crea-
lures of condition. The condi-
ton is: Too many mines and toe
many miners. The country can
not use enough coal to keep all
its mines operating and all the
miners working.
Called "Sick" Industry.
Here we are half way through
winter. For eight months the
miners have been idle at least halt
the time. And only now, with all
the mines idle, has the Industrial
and domestic situation become
such as to justify the Presidents
calling. it national emergency
The obvious arithmetic may not
reflect the exact facts, but 1t does
seem that the country could op-
crate with about half as many
mines and half as many miners.

ing at full capacity in order tc
collect unprecedented profits. They
are not contending with General
Motors, the demand for whose
goods has given it profits never
before reached in any industry
They are contending instead with
what has been recognized for many
years as a sick" industry.
And there are no indications
that this industry will ever be
well again; at least, not in the
sense of operating at full capacity
with full employment for the men
willing and able to work. Coal
now has oil for a competitor.
Likewise natural gas. Soon, per-
haps, atomic power.
The coal industry and the men
in 1t, operators and miners, are
fighting off real disaster. The

Lewis. He is merely one of the

say that the Russians refused tt

reliable about agreements. This
though true. does not get to the
heart of the matter, which Is to
be found in the basic concept OF
how peace was to be maintained,
as expressed in the various con-
ferences, and in the United Ma
tions structure.
Peace was to be preserved by
unanimity between the great
powers and by the veto reserved
exclusively for them. Whatever
they agreed on was to become, in
effect, the law. II they disagreed,
the whole structure Of the peace
was threatened. No statutes were
formulated, relating the behavior
of any Of the super powers to
standards. They were to live above
the law. yet find agreement.

This concept of world peace in
wolves the remuneration of war by
the vast majority. But it also
tacitly involves the willingness of
these to become the victims of the
great powers who do not renounce
war. On this premise the great
powers begin by dividing the as
sets Of others in mutual conces-
sions; and the concept ends IL,
nobody's lifting finger for his
neighbor lest the peace be
threatened.
Thus is the way opened for
every adventurism in which whole
peoples are asked to sacrifice
themselves for the peace of the
strong. every protest against each
new fait accompli being inter-
preted as warmongering. Mean
while the bolder of the powers
move steadily forward in the un-
protected vacuums thus created.
In 1945. in discussing the Dum-
barton Oaks proposals, this col
umn declared that this concept
of United Nations peace was
precisely the one that created
Munich. For the sake of peace
between the three great Euro

Britain and France-smaller states

Notre Dame and Next Year

Chicago is a hot Notre Dame
city. This affection goes back to
the early years of Knute Roekne.
A bad Notre Dame year is a bad
football year for many Chicago
football fans. ~ Do

about Notre Dame and 1851.

1949 and 1850. His passing was
about 20 or 80 per cent of N0tre

such don't come along every

There are strong rumors around
that Notre Dame is getting ready
to shed part of her football glory.
Scholarships have been reduced
quite heavily. we are told.
One point is that Notre Dame is
really a magnificent university.
Many Of her leaders think the edu-
cational and cultural side has been
overshadowed by football great
ness. This, at least, is the idea
you hear. From now on Notre
Dame will have good football
teams. but they won't be so over
whelming.
Notre Dame loses good men after
this season and so far apparently
no Harris, Connors or Lujacks are
on the freshman squad. 1t is lucky
that Notre Dame still has Frank
Leahy and his able coaching staff.

limited material as full proof that

that writes most of the winning
story.

found that pigs as well as rats

pointed out that even though swine
may have the Newcastle virus in

not suffer ill-effects from it, as
poultry do. Thus, newly purchased

Attacks Foreign Policy
IN WASHINGTON

GEN. ROBERT A. TAFT, fresh
~ from his overwhelming person
al triumph at the polls in Ohio,
lost little time upon his return to
Washington in raising questions
concerning TIL administration
foreign policy which he pounded
consistently during his campaign.
The Ohio leader declared there
is no such thing in this country as
an isolationist and said that any
one who called another an 'isola-
zionist" was an idiot" Then he
questioned whether the American
s people would stand the expense of
5000, 000-man army and the mil
itary program to sustain it, and
whether or not we are depending
too much on western Europe and
the North Atlantic pact nations as
our allies. These may be substan-
tial and valid questions TO raise
and will undoubtedly be subject to
review by the next congress.
Senator Taft. however, provided
no answers to his questions and,
according to many, he should have
asked at least another question. If
we are to assume as Senator Taft
does, that we cannot depend upon
our European allies and that the
American people will not stand for
a big army and the planned military
program now getting underway,
then where do we 60 from there?
How will we defend the United
States and our own security?
