WASHNGTON LETTER
1889 Warning Is Timely Today

SO, il is argued, the leaders
of the two camps are giving out
with warnings about how de-
structive a new war could be.
Trying to head off World War
II, Pope Plus XII made a radio
plea to those in power and their
people. His talk was entitled
The Grave Hour" He said in
part:
ut is by force of reason, and
not by force of arms, that jus
tice makes progress, and empires
which are net founded on justice
are not blessed by God. States
msnship emsncipated from mor-
ality betrays those very ones
who would have it so. The danger
is imminent, but there is yet
time. Nothing is lost wit peace;
all may be lost with war. Let
men return TO mutual under
standing! Let them begin negotis-
tions anew, {, nferring with good
will and with respect for recip,,
rocal rights. Then they will find
that to sincere and conscientious
negotiations an honorable solu-
tion is never precluded. They
will feel a sense of greatness in
the true sense of the word if, by
silencing the voices of passion
be it collective or private-and
by leaving to reason its rightful
rule, they will have spared the
blood of their fellow men and
saved their countries from ruin"
Pope Plus XII spoke on Au-
gust 4, 1899. Hitler declared war
on Poland on September l, 1899.

WASHINCTON LETTER

WASHINGTON - Something
more than Is years ago, His Holi-
ness Pope Plus XII made last
minute effort TO prevent the
outbreak of World War II.
A sentence which the Holy
Father spoke at that time is
better known today than it was
then, and is even truer now than
it was a decade and . half ago.
His Holiness said: Nothing is
lost with peace; all may be lost
with war"
This observation is called strik
ingly to mind, because the world
is divided into two camps, and
lately each camp has been tell
ing the world about the destruc-
tive power of the weapons it pos
sesses. And each camp has rea-
son to believe that the other has
weapons that are equally de
structive.
In Russia, Foreign Minister
Molotov limited, against the best
available sounding board, that
the Soviets are ahead of the
United States in the production
of hydrogen bombs. Still other
Red leaders have proclaimed
that they have nuclear weapons
in great variety, and that they
can deal devastating blows to an
enemy.
In the United States, authori-
ties have expressed doubt that
Russia is ahead of us in the hyd-
rogen bomb race; have said we
could defeat Red China in 30
days, and have disclosed that a
hydrogen bomb which we now

MONSICNOR HIGGINS
Unfinished Business

q variety OF ways, through the
eyerexpanding process of col
lective bargaining; but co-own-
ership of productive property
still comes under the heading of
unfinished business.
To be sure, the average work
ingman is better off N many
ways than ne was in 1919 But,
as general rule, he is still a
mere" wage Garner las the Bish-
ops referred to him them and is
not in any real sense of the word
an owner of the means of pro-
duction. He depends almost en-
tirely on his daily or weekly
wage-plus a certain amount of
security in the form of old-age
and unemployment insurance, if
he is fortunate enough to be COW
cred under the Social Security
law.
Hope for Lorg-Ranss Program
From 1919 until the present
time, neither industry nor gov
ernment nor the labor move
ment itself has seriously address
ed itself to this problem. All
three, in varying degrees, have
been interested in the workers
welfare and security. But none
of the three has been particu-
larly interested in the matter of
co-ownership in the sense in
which the term is used in the
Bishops Program.
1t is readily understandable, of
course, why the labor movement
has not addressed itself to this
long-range modification of the
wage system There have been
too many other things to do in
the Short-run. This is true to
some extent even today.
However, now that the AFI~
CIO unity seems to be assured,
there is reason to hope that the
Short-run objective of the labor
movement will soon be achieved
in substantial measure. A fur
ther hope is that labor will then
have the time and the energy TO
formulate long-range program
of co-ownership along the lines
suggested, with remarkable fore
sight. more than 36 years ago in
the Bishops Program of Social
Reconstruction.
incidentally. congratulations
are in order to George Meany
and Walter Reuther and their
associates in the AFL and CI0 on
the completion or near-comple-
ton of their unity negotiations.
They have acted in a very states
manlike manner, with the good
of labor and the good of their
country uppermost in their
minds.
The unity terms on which these
leaders have agreed. subject to
ratification by the membership
of both organizations, are thor
oughly realistic in the best sense
of the word and thorouohly hon
orable. Upon this solid founda-
tion they can and will-with the
grace of God n establish the
strongest and the best labor
movement which the world has
ever known.
