Labor Leaders, Nursing Third Party
Ideas, Facing Difficult Venture
. By JAMES THRASHER
Shortly before the election President William Green of the
American Federation of Labor was quoted by reporters, directly
and at length, on the AFL plans for "definitely" doing something
about starting a third party at its national convention this month.
A few days later. Mr. Green said he had been "misinterpreted," that
the third party report was "misleading," and that he would
personally oppose such a move.
We don't kr.ow whether all
those words attributed to Mr.
Green and enclosed in quotation
marks were a reporter's pipe
dream, or whether the AFL presi
dent had a chanpe of heart. But
whatever the explanation, we be
lieve the decision to forego a la
bor third party is wise.
The most successful third par
ties of recent memory the Pro
gressives of 1914 and 1924 were
built arnund two popular and dy
namic figures, ex-Presklent Theo

Any national labor party now

which a serious third-party

There is nothing In ou. past

No Crystal Ball for Preview Of
How Next World War Will be Waged
By HAL BOYLE
NEW YORK It It unlikely the next war If there li one
will be fought as expert! predict today.
For there is no trusty crystal ball to give an honest preview
of Just how nations will beat each others brains apart a generation
hf-nce. Wars have as" many surprises as women or the weather.
ToD-ranklne veterans of one
war are often the poorest guess
ers on how the following war will
be waged. They tend to overrate
one new weapon too much. Or
they reply too heaily on methods
that won them victories in the
past.
It isn't only the French army
as the old quip goes that pre
Dares in Dei.ce to fiEht the last
war over again. All armies have
a tendency to.
The other day I picked up for
five cents at a second hand book

Jl. I Ka Dkin. I' K.f Main,- Vin.
tor Lefpbure. He was a British
chemical warfare specialist in the
First World War.
His bonk was published in 1923.
It illustrates why seasoned mili
tary leaders should be chary of
putting into print any predictions
about the future of their own pro
fession. The book contained part of an
article by Mai. Gen. Amos Alfred
Fries, then chief of the U.S.
Chemical Warfare Service, point
ing out that poison gas oaused 75,
000 of the 275,000 American First
the party of special Interest, it
just Isn't so..
Both the Democratic and Re
publican parties have their share
of industrialists and financiers,
big and little businessmen, union
members, white collar workers
and farmers. And while there are
many party regulars among them
whose allegiance never varies,
our elections are decided by vot
ers whose minds are free and flex
ible, however fixed their economic
status may be.
These independent votes are
dictated by a multitude of differ
ent reasons, but apparently the
underlying motive is self-interest
rather than group-interest. If par
ty or group regularity was a de
pendable thing we would not, for
example, have seen the American
people give nearly 59 per cent of
the popular vote to Herbert
Hoover over Al Smith in 1928 and
then, four years later, give Frank
lin D. Roosevelt more than 60 per
cent of the popular vote over Mr.
Hoover.
Lack of Unity Prevails
If our political history promised
Mr. Green some difficulties, he
would probably have found others
peculiar to his own situation. The
CIO and AFL have never been
able to join forces. John L. Lewis
and his miners have broken away
from both groups. There are other
large unions, like the railroad
brotherhoods, Independent of both
the maior labor organizations.
A big reason for this lack of
Inbor unity is the unwillingness
of many union executives to vleld
or share the power tney now nom.
A full-dress excursion of these ex
ecutives into national politics
would probably Intensify the
strueele for power. This is par
ticularly likely since Walter
Reuther of the CIO has expressed
some third-party Intentions of his
own.
Mr. Green has seemed hopeful
that opposition to the Taft-Hartley
law would provide the motive
power for unifying labor. That
law has served Mr. Green and
others as an effective bogyman in
the past year. But we hardly think
It Is fearsome enough to scare the
majority of union member into
a new and precarious political
movement.
