Formal appeal of President
the American Federation t Labor and the Committer tf or In
dustrial Organization, ia another link in the chain of evidence
that the admihbtration seeks an end to the era of bad feeling
i, which has hampered economic revival. Ifc ties In with Harry
Hopkins' overtures to business and Secretary Morgenthau's
pledge of no increased taxes. . 1 4 ". . .i
- i Peace between the two labor organizations' however, can
not come merely through the plea of the president to ''Dear
Bill" and fDear John." Nor will the recognition of AF of L
of Nthe principle of organization on an industrial rather than
a craft basis bring it. The American Federation has frequent
ly authorized such a type of organization; In the Boeing Air
craft factory in Seattle the International Association of Ma
chinists is the exclusive bargaining agency for workers in 22
separate crafts employed in that plant.
. The basic fight which stalls merger of the two big anion
.organizations is the fight over which group' will control the
pooled organization, when and if it is created. To allow 525.4
000 steel workers, 381,000 auto workers or 450.000 textile
enrployes all new union members since the AF of L-CIO
split of 1935 to come back to the AFof L would permit the
old bureaucrats behind William Green to be outvoted. Such
men as William K. Hutcheson, powerful union leader of the
carpenters and their 300,000 members, might puU out of AF
of L rather than surrender control, to the larger, numerically
stronger, mass anions which Lewis would want blended into
' the AF of L as a condition of return. f
The AF of L will take back the. mass-production unions
but only on terms the entrenched AF of L chiefs set up
and it is a certainty that no ratable representation on the bas
is of enrolled members would be permitted. The fight between
the rival groups is primarily a fight for power among the
leadership. Unless and until the rank-and-file members insist
on peace, , there is small likelihood that the executives of the
rival groups can agree' on a formula for merger. :: -
.As far as the public is concerned, no great harm will re
sult if AF of L and CIO continue to go their separate ways,
provided the jurisdictional issue can be settled. If the pro
posed peace conference would result in an allocation of the or
ganizational tights in various
AF of L and stoppage of the paralyzing jurisdictional -disputes,
the public's concern for peace would be accomplished.
There may. be value in having two great national organiza
tions of labors a completely merged organization with 5,000,-
000 to 6,000,000 members would constitutean extremely pow
erful minority bloc What is immediately needed is a division
.of the field between the groups and the cessation of the
'costly and ineffective squabbles over jurisdiction.
I- , ' Protest of the Children
: ' TM .Mh' r:
Oregon nas a new type of picket line these days, a line of
Chinese boys and girls at Astoria and Marshfield. They are
parading the docks at these seacoast towns protesting against
shipment of scrap iron to Japan, iron which will be made into
bullets and bombs to harass a prostrate. Chinal The children
skipped school last Week and trudged back and forth through
the long, wet days but the authorities have stopped that: Now

have not been heard above the noise of the Spanish debacle

Pius
- Pope Pius XII, who nntH yesterday ; was Eugenio Car
dinal Pacelli, was considered .by his fellow cardinalsas best
suited by ecclesiastical experience to assume the tremendous,
present responsibility as head of the Catholic church. . With
the poiver of "the church menaced by the growth of totalitar
ian gcryernmehts "which insist on shunting spiritual claims
of their Citizens aside, the very existence of Catholocism in
such countries is menaced. - Papal ender-secretary 27 years
and sitce 1930, secretary, of state, Pacelli has been more dose
to the recent head of the Vatican and the problems he faced,
than any other cardinal. The rapidity with which he was
chosen, the breaking of precedent in elevating a secretary of
state of the Vatican to the papcy, both speak the hurried un
animity of the cardinals' minds.
Pacelli 's selection will be unpopular In Germany, for the
new p;pe is considered anti-nazi. Correspondingly his selec
tion delights France. Pius XII takes office, nevertheless,
with a profound understanding of German affairs. He was
nuncio! to the German republic for a decade. As such he nego
tiated the 1929 concordat between the Holy See and the Ger
man republic and after Hitler's rise, was ambassador of the
church; jn the new treaty with the nazis. This concordat of
late has been violated, the church asserts; and Pius XII will
be forced to restore it if the church is to avoid a JKitler at
tack almost as savage as his treatment of the Jews.

Hlsh and Stat streets,
Salem, look, oa March lta,
1159, when the great news came?.
' V W
An Inquiry la indirectly relayed
to this desk which is covered by
the above headline. : l
It haa something to do with the
proposed moral on the walls ot
the Oregon senate chamber,
which, this writer was told by the
architect rf the building. Is to rep
resent the carrying of the newa of
statehood to . Salem, the capital.
And, - if . well carried out, this
would he rery appropriate. The in
cident was like thia:
-ff.';- S ;
The people ot Oregon had wait
ed and waited, after adopting
their state constitution, for con
gress to act and make this a state,
ehanglag from the territorial
form., The state officers had been
elected for the 'better part of a
year. The two legislatures, terri
torial and state, which had been
chosen te June before, did not
know what to do, in the hiatus
time between the two forms of
commonwealth gorernment.
The law admitting Oregon aa
state, siring her the 33d star in
the American flag, was finished
with the signature of President
Buchanan on February 14,, 18 59.
But slow mails conreyed the only
news from coast to coast, then.
Eren the pony express waa more
than a year, in the tat are; the tel
egraph a few years..
The steamer Brother Jonathan
. . .
brought the newa of .Oregon's ad
mission to statehood, arriving at
Portland a month sad a day later.
that is. March 15. 1S5S.
Stephen Senter, , tiring Just
above the Willamette Falls, at
Canemah, knowing that no rlTer
boat waa scheduled to leave for
Salem that day from that point
(the Oregon City locks being far
in the future), moan ted his
horse, and started to Salem with
the news, knowing how welcome it
would be.
Aa he galloped off he realised
that nthe mud of the excuses for
roads was deep and that the water
in the Molalla and Pudding rivers
was high and that those streams
must be crossed. The; rider spread
the news as he went and he cov
ered the distance in 30 hours!
Speedsters In high-powered, autos
make the 35-odd miles now m 30
minutes or less.
The 15th of March, 1859, was
Tuesday. So it was likely some
time s on Wednesday, the 16 th,
after. 30 hours of riding, wading.
swimming, stopping to rest, or
what not, that Senter arrived in
Salem with the news.
Then how is it that the Oregon
Blue ; Book records Governor John
Whiteaker, Secretary of State Lu-
elen Heath, land Treasurer John
D. Boon, as commencing their of
fices tn March 3, 1359, or 13 days
before they knew they had a state
to give them the offices, with the
pay going therewith?
Well, that is explained by the
fact that congress. March 3, 1819,
extended the laws and judicial
system of the United States over
Oregon as a state.
The state officers had been no
in the air since June of 1858,
when they ; were elected, without
drawing any salary unless In the
case of Boon, who was territorial
treasurer when he was elected
state treasurer, and thus had only
to turn over his office to himself.
And state officers, the gover
nor and secretary, got only 81.
500 year each as salary then,
and the treasurer only 8800.
It Is necessary to inform only
the uninitiated that soon they
were seeing i to it that they got
more.. How? Well, the state treas
urer was expected to loan what
ever idle money was on hand, and
put the interest in his pocket,
This went on tor a long time, and
most early state treasurers . got
rich. i " '
And ways were found to give
the governor and secretary ot
state more, by paying them 8250
a year each aa members of boards,
like the asylum board, reform
school board, etc., etc., etc.
But now we1 get down to the
inquiry. Why does any one want
to know what the southwest cor
ner of State and High streets
looked like on March 16th, 1851 T
The person making the inquiry
for the person painting the mural
of the Stephen Senter ride with
the news of admission must have
aa idea that he' (Senter) paaaed
that point, going east or west, or
tuning the : corner -to the west
there as he -came from the north
turning the corner at the famous
Bennett House, which stood at
northwest State, and High, where
(he Masonic building i now.. It
may be the last named supposition
la correct. i
Oregon had no capitot then.
The territorial capltoL standing
on the ground occupied by the
present state capitot, was burned
the night or December J 1-30
1886. Some territorial and state
office, were in the Bennett
House, notably the) surveyor's and
the supreme court rooms.
: ' But more were la the Holmaa
building, northwest Ferry and

as treasurer, secretary of state
Indian commissioner, the two
houses of the legislature, etc.

The Supreme Court Decision:
; ' A Liberal Document
In its' Monday decision the Su
preme Court outlawed the unique
collaboration of the National La-
bor Relations
Board with (he
trade unions to
prevent employes
guilty of break
ing the law from
s u f f e ring the
penslty of dis
charge. It did not out
law the sit-down
strike, b e c a use
the illegality ot
Itorotky ThompMa the sit-down
strike did not come into ques
tion and was not challenged by
the National Labor Relations
Board. "
The employee who seized the
corporation's plant were evicted
by the sheriff, tried in the courts
and most of them fined or sen
tenced to Jail. Nobody, Includ
ing the National Labor Relstiona
Board, contested the justice ' of
the tine or the sentences. But
the board held that notwithstand
ing the fact that the employees
had committed a criminal act
against the company, the com
pany was obliged, to Te.employ
them with ack pay.
The Supreme Court decision
supports the company's refusal
to do so.
Actually, in fact, the 'company
did re-employ most ot the stri
kers. But it reserved its right
not to take back others, and
that right is upheld.
The decision Is of great im
portance, because the National
Labor Relatione Board haa, by
Its attitude, protected employees
from suffering the full and logl
cal consequences of nnlawfui
acts. And this attitude of 4 e
noara nas been one or the -rea
sons for industry's distrust ot it.
The Supreme Court made Its
decision in spite of the fact that
It sustained the board's ruling
tnat the company, .by its cam
paign to organlxe the plant into
an Independent union, by its Iso
lation of the C. I. O., union's
president irom nia . leuow em
ployees, by the employment of
a labor spy, and by refusing to
bargain collectively in February
when the C. O. union had
a majority of the employees
had been guilty oti unfair labor
practices.
The court's decision indicates.
nowever that . unfair labor prae
tlces on the part of an employer
are not in any : sense whatever
a justification for illegal prac
tlces on the part of the work
ers. The employer must Ceslst
from . illegality and change, his
ways. The employees must' de
sist f roar illegality and bear the
consequences of discharge it they
ao not. - ,
-.:"":
There are numerous Illuminat
ing statements in the decision
that have aa Important bearing
on' the conduct of labor under
tne protection or the act.
. The court points out that the
workers,' themselves - failed
throughout "the controversy with
the employers to appeal to-the
aurb. Thus, la the summer and
fall or 1936, ; prior to the sit
down, the union could have im
mediately - complained to the

they were spied upon, and they

nut tney preferred to force the
issue by a alt-down strike;"
Tais observation, of the court
aa to the anion's failure- to take
advantage of the protection of
tne act brings out one ot the
weaknesses of the act aa a means
for promoting Industrial peace.
For If we are really- to have
peaceful settlements of disnutes
and the adjustment of labor-em
ployer eontrarersiea through
governaent ageney. wf ought to

putes in advance ot a strike or

lockout, while reserving to wo k
ers the right., to strike if the arf
bitratlon is not satisfactory.
The appeal to arbitration
ought to be open both to - em
ployers and employes. Arrange
ments for arbitration in advance
Of a strike are part of the sta
tutes of both Sweden and Great
Britain. The Swedish law cre
ates an obligation on the part
of both employers and employes
to attend conferences for the
purpose of collective bargaining
if either party demands it, and.
in Great Britain, although thero
is no legal compulsion in the
matter, agreements between un
ions and employers Invariably
provide rffor arbitration of " dis
putes la advance ot a strike or
lockout.
Most interesting was the su
preme court's third finding.
The board based part of its
contention on the general author
ity conferred upon it by the" act
to require the employer to take
such affirmative action as will
effectuate the policies of the
act," and argued that such ac
tion may embrace requlrment of
re-employment.
The court holds that while the
board's authority Is broad, it is
hot unlimited, and referred to ita
decision in the Consolidated Edi
son case, where It ruled that the
board could not inflict on the
employer any penalty it chose for
unfair labor practices.
The court holds thai the pow
er of the board to compel af
firmative action is remedial and
not punitive, and it reminds the
board that "there Is not a line
in the statute to warrant the con
elusion that it is any jart of the
policies of the act to encourage
employes to resort to force and
violence, in defiance of the law ot
the land." ?
This recall to the limitation ot
scope of power la a healthy re
buke to more government agen
cies than the NLRB.
Another very important part ot
the court s finding Is that it does
not uphold the board's conclu
sion that the employer, follow
ing; an illegal strike and the law
ful dismissal of the people, en
gaged In It. mast continue to
bargain with the anion which
called It. i
' The employer has not the right
to punish the. union as such, by
refusing to recognise it. b"t tho

there ceased to bo a basis for .the
conclusion that the anion was
still the choice ( ot the majority
oi employes. ,
The court therefore called at
tention to what critics of the
act; among them this column.
have several times pointed out as
weakness: namely, that once
union had gotten a majority
it is assumed that this majority
is permanent, and no procedure
exists .whereby dissidents can
challenge the majority. This is
contrary to basic democratic
principles, which are that the
minority may at any time be
come the majority. It is in this
way that in the realm of politics
we provide for change and re
form. . i
The 'concept of the majority
which becomes permanent and is
the sole agency through which
the collective will may function.
Is the concept of the totalitarian
states in the field et politics.
Given the closed shop and the
check-off, the anion has a petma
nent mandate, and if this is de
mocracy then Hitler is no demo
crat. Moreover, there is no com
pulsion of democracy inside the
ruling trade union.
Senator Thomas has called for
hearings on the act before the
edncation and labor committee,
and it is to be hoped that this
committee will - take tee oppor
tunity to go Into the history ot
labor relations in other countries,
particularly in Great Britain and
Sweden.
We ought to be able to take ad
vantage ot the enormous body of
existing experience In this field.

or ii we could bring some
real order into labor-employer
relationships we would bring
about one of the first essentials
to real economic recovery in this
country.
The labor relations act has ful
filled a function in establishing
without question the rigU of
workers to organize in Indeoen
dent trade unions and it has been
responsible for a very, healthy
airing or the stupid and reaction
ary policies of some of our in

a means of iu inning its avowed

Radically to diminish Indus
