merit which undertakes to break strikes when it feels such
course advisable also must undertake to make them, on
occasion.
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.

f . FAIR OR FASCIST?
' 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. Washington
