LABOR'S USE OF i

(AHSoctated Prosa Staff Writer) k
Thousands of strik-s have occurred
in' America in the two and a half
centuries since Bacon's rebellion in
Virginia, when oppressed colonists
struck back at their British control.
Some have ended in victory an-4
others in defeat for the striken. Some
were peaceable, but many resulted
tn loss of life and destruction of
property.

the 1W7 strike of Philadelphia car
penters for a 10-hour day.
In that early part of the nine
teenth century laboring men were
beginning to organize for concrete
purposes.

W.sHIPJOTON It will be open
to debate probably for some time to
come as to Just what brought Gen
eral Hugh Johnson around to his de
cision that "the period of one-man
administration of XRA Is ready to be
terminated."
Apparently the man who generally
is recognized as second only to Presi
dent Roosevelt as the most colorful
figure in the "new deal" Is soon to
go into eclipse.
Is It voluntary or forced? That's

the question which dcubtlcss will be
argued on countless fronts for daya
to come.
It has been evident for a long
time that certain factions within the
administration's inner circle have felt
the time had come for the general
to relinquish the controls of NRA.
Although quick to admit he has per
formed the task originally assigned
to him In magnificent fashion, they
lns;-3ted the present situation in NBA
required a more peaceful, a calmer
administration than that afforded by
Johnson.
Tetc-.Y-Tetc?
Some contend that the most per
sauslve and soft-spoken "big shots"
of the "new deal" were delegated to
woo the general to thlc way of
thinking. It is even hinted the woo
ing took plac-a during a recent-short
vacation Johnson took while he golf
ed p.nd rested at a spa in upstate
New York.
The whole thing had to be han
dled with gloves. The general's ca
pacity for "blowing up" Is known to
all.
Cn the other hand, the contention
is made that Johnson on his respon
sibility recommended to the president
abolition of the one-man administra
tion of NRA.
Only his intense loyalty to tlie
president, amounting to devotion,
and his determination to finish the
Job he set out to do, arc declared to
be the reason he has remained as
long as he has.
Worn Out On Tak
Those who saw the general at his
press conference on the day he an
nounced he had made his recommen
dations to Mr. Roosevelt were struck
by his appearance of utter fatttrue.
No one doubts the fact that he Is
worn out physically. He has driven
himself almost to the point of ex
haustion and collapse, by the long
and punishing hours he hRS put in
on the Job.
The best guew of Washington ob
servers is that he will make his
swim: through the west a last and
vivid event, in keeping with those
in which he has figured so promin
ently since NitX was born. Then, they
hazard, he'll quit probably before
congress reconvenes In January.
