With this advantage on his
side the enemy may strike with
the expectation that the new
campaign will carry our forces
into the winter months, when
the fighting becomes more diff
ficult for us because of weather
conditions.
The men who conduct foreign

Lake Success were Mortified

commander to come and talk
about a military cease-fire with
representatives at a place Sc
lected by the U. N. commander.
They accused him of sabotag-
ing a proposal which was being
cooked up by the diplomats
which, they said, would have
given us a fine chance to end
this local war. ;
But they all jumped and
shouted with delight when the
Soviet representative, Jacob
Malik, merely suggested a cease
fire, without further developing
this suggestion, and rushed
Gen. Matthew B. Ridgway into
a position of inferiority. He not
only had to make the first ap-
proach. but was compelled to
yield to the conditions for dis
cussions imposed by the enemy
himself.

Even if such occupation
lasted five years. Japanese busi-
ness and economic facilities
would not suffer as much as
they would by an air lombard
ment in a war to the finish"
The occupation has lasted
about six years. A liberal gov
ernment has been established
in Japan which has earned the
trust of the United States.
Japan's industrial machine
was not completely destroyed,
and much of it has already been
rebuilt.
Thus the prediction made in
1914 to the japanese people has
come true.
Since that time, the story has
come from Japanese sources on
how important the psychologi-
cal warfare was during the war
period and the effect 1t had on
the thinking of the ruling
classes. At that time, of course,
Americans thought strict CEN
sorShip was being observed, that
the same restrictions were be-
ing applied as in any other to-
talitarian country, and that
psychological, warfare was a
wasted effort. But the mes
sages did get through and in
f1uential men in Japan who had
been in the United States be-
fore did understand the Ameri-
can temperament and did tell
their fellow citizens that Ameri-
can occupation was preferable

Constantine Brown:
MoIik Proposal for Farley Regarded as
Time-G Gaining Move to Bolster Forces

1t is evident now. from what
is happening in Korea, how
foolish it was to pay serious at
tention to the Russian peace
suggestions.
1t is becoming clearer every
day that the Reds intended from
the very beginning to make a
farce out of the armistice pro-
posals we advanced following
the suggestions by Jacob Malik,
Moscow's sinister representative
at the United Nations.
1t is just as likely that after
the heavy casualties the Chi
nese Reds suffered in Korea
they were not in position to
stage another offensive with
greater chance of success than
in previous ones. They needed
time. Mr.. Malik proposed a
cease fire and we eagerly
jumped at his suggestions. ac-
tually taking the first step in
bringing about such parleys.
Hanging desperately on the
slim hope that the Reds for
once might be at least half sim
cere in their proposals, we not
only took the first steps but
also yielded to the Communist
demands that the conversations
take place at Kaesong. the last
remaining portion of South
Korea still in the enemy's
hands.
The warnings of some men,
who know the Oriental mind,
that it would be mistake not
to have the parleys on a gen.
timely neutral spot, such as
aboard a hospital ship, were
brushed aside by our policymak-
ers in Washington.
I'VE want to put an end to
the slaughter in Korea" they
said, "and it does not matter
whether we give the enemy
some propaganda satisfaction.
so long as we can save the lives
of thousands of American SOL
diers." This would have been
all right if we did not have to
deal with the trickiest bunch of
political crooks in history.
We also accepted a situation
which is unparalleled in con-
temporary history, a situation
in which neither side claimed
victory and both parties arrived
at the conference table as
equals. Our representatives
brushed aside the arrogance of
their Communist counterparts.
They were at KaeSong with def
mite instructions from WASH
ington to see that a cease-flre
agreement was signed. and had
to disregard the injury to their
feelings caused by the re-
peatedly insulting attitude of
the Communists.
The full story of the frustra-
ton of our military emissaries
has not yet been told. If and
when it is written it will not
make a pretty page in history.
But our admirals and generals
were not to stand on their dig
nifty; they had to make every
effort to end the war militarily.
The civilians at the United Ma
thons were to take care of the
rest, as soon as the cease-fire
was signed.
After two months we are as

far from an armistice as we were
during the heavy fighting.

mats and the Administration in
Washington. The former were
convinced that their diplomatic

peace finally into harbor and

signed by the end of that month.
The latter saw in the prospec-
tive signature of a cease fire
complete vindication for it's dis
misSal of Gen. Macarthur. who
himself had invited the enemy
to sit down for truce talks, but
under entirely different condi-
tions. When he made that move,
Gen. Macarthur. who knows the
psychology of Orientals, placed
himself in the position of a
magnanimous victor. But he was
fired.
The situation as it appears
now is as follows: At best the
deceptive negotiations in Korea
will only give Comrade Gro
myko and his associates at the
San Francisco conference on
the japanese treaty some i'm
portant bargaining points. At
worst. it has given the enemy
two precious months in which

prehensive framework OF the
Wagner Labor Relations Act.
It was a self-help enterprise
designed to give the worker COL
lective power to bargain with the
collective power of the often i'm
personal corporate giants which
directed and controlled the in
struments Of mass production.
It was. as well, the working out
in our economic democracy of
the checks and balances prin-
ciple which is the essence of
our political democracy.
Labor leaders, some of them
in those distressing days back
in the early thirties as the head
of figuratively shadow armies of
workers, were given representa-
tion in the National Recovery
Administration of the early New
Deal regime, and were infiuen-
tial in implementing recovery
measures with projections for
the worker to strengthen his
position.
How the unions have grown
since, both in numbers of men,
bers and in power, is something
with which we are all familiar.
That of itself forced recognition
and representation of labor in
the war production set-up of the
Second World War as it has
done since in this current emer-
gency in which, we may recall,
labor staged a walk out" until
it got the stronger voice to which
it held it was entitled.
The political story of the last
two decades, as we'll as the eco
nomic story. has been influenced
far more than Is usually real-
lied by labor in its new highly
organized capacity. Previously
identified more closely with the
Republican Party from the days
of Mark Hanna's full dinner
pail" majority of labor
switched to the Democratic
Party under the Roosevelt dis
penSation and that has ac-
counted largely, as we know,
for that party's hold on the Gov
ernment which Republicans
have been unable to loosen.
Union organization has pro-
vided an effective political
mechanism. The union hall
has become, politically, in this
era what the political clubhouse
Of the ward boss was in politics
Of another era-and is far
more efficient and effective.
The union bases its activity In
enlightenment about Social and
economic conditions and in the
ways of legislatures and Con-
gress where things can be done
to improve these conditions. It's
educational aspect is too little
recognized and emphasized.

David Lowrence:

What's happening in San
Francisco this week is a dra-
matte sequel to something that
happened during the war with
Japan-a promise fulfilled now
which was made then about the
probable duration of the period
of occupation.
The United States began dur
ing the last two years of World
War II-even before Hitler was
beaten-to let the Japanese peo-
pie know that they would not
suffer if they surrendered. A
dispatch written by this COR
respondent on November Is.
1914, was among those beamed
to the Far East in those days.
1t is interesting to read an ex-
tract from it now:
While the military view here
is that it may take two years
to accomplish the defeat OF Ja-
pan, there is a possibility of
an unconditional surrender at
an early date without the ne
cessity of achieving military OBJ
jectiveS :.
"The Japanese businessmen
know the American tempera-
ment. They know that uncon-
ditional surrender would mean
American occupation of Tokyo
and Japan proper, but that it
would not be a permanent oc-
cupation. Sooner or later, after
a liberal government had been
established composed Of ele-
ments that would seek to earn
the trust of the United States,

to an all-out war to the finish.
One wonders what the fate
of Europe might have been if
a similar group had been able
to get rid Of Hitler and bring
the war in Germany to an ear
lier end, before the widespread
air bombardment occurred
which resulted /. in such heavy
destruction to industrial plants
that the American people have
since had to pay huge sums
for rehabilitation.
Likewise, one wonders whether
those who are conducting .psy-
Geological warfare today which
is directed to the peoples be-
hind the Iron Curtain will take
advantage of the record made
by the United States with re-
spect to Japan to emphasize
the Importance of trusting to
American cooperation in any
move that might be made to
install a democratic form OF
government.
Whatever else the treaty with
Japan means to the relations
between the United States and
the country which was con-
quered by it's forces, evidence is
given that the truStful relation
ship promised to democratic ele-
mentS during a war can come
to a successful fruition, and that
communications directed to the
people of an enemy country
transcend in Importance the
communications to an enemy

Looking Backward on Labor
Unions Growth Seen as HeoIthful Epsod
Despite Some Excesses and Rocketeerng

Labor Day is a good time to
look back, take stock and re-
capitulate what collective bar
gaining and unionization have
meant, not only to the Ameri-
can worker and his family, but
also to American life and
politics.
It is am amazing drama.
For the purposes here, it will
be confined to the exciting and
absorbing recent acts, many Of
which have been played against
this Washington background.
This offers, too. the satisfactory
vantage point Of personal
observation.
In that span Of two decades
we have seen the revival of the
organized labor movement from
its disintegrating and shatter-
ing experience Of the depression
of the late 1920S and early
1930s and it's growth and pro-
gresS to the powerful position
that it occupies today. This is
not to detract a whit from the
work of pioneers, way back into
our history, a little band OF self
less, devoted men and women
who endured sacrifices always,
jails frequently. public obloquy
often, and fought a continual
uphill battle for recognition OF
the very simple principle ex-
pressed by the Scotch poet-"A
mans a man for a. that"
There was recognition of that
humanitarian impulse by those
who gathered here in The Poos-
evelt Administration in March,
1898, to repair the wreckage Of
the depression and readjuSt our
economy-too much neglected
in the happy-go- lucky Twenties
so that it would have stability.
But there was more than that.
in order to have stability and
enduring prosperity. it was nee
essary to give the individual
worker in our mass, machine
economy self-reliance and inde-
pendence so that he could fight
for himself and win sufficient
share Of the national income in
higher wages which would per-
NIT him, in effect, to buy the
things he and millions Of his
like produced on the assembly
line.
For this unions offered
the mechanism of collective
strength. So collective bargain
ing was encouraged, first by
general direction of famous Sec

covery Act. afterward by Spe-

The story has not always been
a pretty one. In its growing
pains. labor has had its excesses
which finally led to restrictions
in the Taft Hartley law; it has
had its quota Of racketeers; it
has had exploitation by Com
munist infiltrators with whom,
however, it seems to have sue
cessfully coped now.
But altogether the story has
been a healthful episode in the
best American tradition.
