This brings us into a field so new and unexplored that no living mortal can say what we are going to see when we get to the other side. It also brings the New Deal to its acid test. Nothing could jhake the ordinary working-man swallow a dose like this except .the previously mentioned reputation for fairness and liberalism possessed ,by the pres ent administration. And nothing cpuld harm tiiat reputa tion as much as a couple of ill-judged decisions as to the "justifiability" of certain strikes. The success or failure of the whole New Deal easily might hinge on the way this new policy is handled.

' If there is .truth in the report that the federal government is preparing to cracjc 'down hard on strikers whose cause is labeled "unjustified" by federal investigators, the adminis tration would seem to have bitten off a jmoutiuui which will 'take 'a great de'al of very energetic chewing. In any other 'country on earth, such a step would be taken as prima facie 'evidence of a svirig to the 'extreme right toward Fascism, to be blunt. . The one thing that would prevent Americans from looking at it in that light would lie the reputation for fairness and BbcaWlaii T&'hich the Roosevelt administration has built up ; thus far. For the implications of the program are clear. . Eabor is warned not to strike without goveiTimentai permis ; sion. The last-resort weapon of the working man is to be . .used only when Washington believes its use to be justified. ; -By withholding relief from so-called "unjustified" strikers, '. the government reserves the right to decide when .'a walkout . may be called. " . - All this brings with it a tremendous responsibility for the people at Washington. If the government can tell labor when not to strike, it logically follows that it is up to the j government to see that labor 'gets the squarest kind of deal , in its negotiations with industrial management.
