IT begins to look as though the
as far as Independent Steel
for Tom Girdler to start celebrating, but all reports indicate,
that more and more men are going back to work, and the
hack of the strike is broken.
Assuming this to be true, what is the reason!
When the strike, started C.I.O. had all the best of it. It
had aigned contracts with U. S. Steel, and 140 other steel com
panies, and the only reason for the strike (advertised at the
time) was that the Independents refused to follow the example
of the steel industry aa a whole.
A weaker cause than the Independents presented could
hardly be imagined, They agreed to collective bargaining, but
they refused to sign an agreement, carrying out what they
agreed to do.
Considered alone that didn't make sense then, and it doesn't
make sense now. It put Independent Steel on the spot at the
outset.
OUT there was a corrolary to that refusal, not publicized at
U the time, which after its presentation, grew like the prover
bial snow ball.
It was this: Why sign a contract with an organization that
is entirely irresponsible t The letter of the law did not demand
it, every consideration of fair play, and common justice, was
against it. For a contract with C.I.O. was binding on one party
but not on the other. It was a "heads I win tails you lose"
proposition, as far as John h. Lewis was concerned, and Tom
Girdler, spokesman for the steel
of it.
THE moment this phase of the problem was presented, the
pntiri. .ituntinn fhancrM nverniffht. CT.O was immediatelv
placed on the defensive. For not
but the record showed, that in
not only made no pretense of
contract, but in several eases, had, when some advantage to
labor oould be gained, disregarded them entirely.
Placed on the defensive, CI.O. then proceeded to make a
fatal blunder, Instead of admitting the charge which was true
and agreeing to correct it or disregarding it entirely, John L.
Lewis proceeded to justify it by abusing the steel Head who
made it, and then resorted to force. 40,000 workers were
ordered to march on Johnstown, Pennsylvania, pickets armed
with clubs and firearms started to get busy, bombs were hurled,
and a virtual state of civil war
AT the outset Governors Earle and Davey called out state
troops to uphold the strike. When this lawless condition
developed, the former recalled the troops and kept still, the
latter, kept them on the job, not to aid the strikers but to
check them and keep the steel plants open I
In other words because of
Wagner Act, to which we called attention a few days ago,
labor's irresponsibility on one hand and the failure to outlaw
force and coercion, on the part of labor while doing so where
capital is concerned this C.I.O. strike against Independent
Steel failed. (Assuming again that it HAS failed.)
SOME will credit the victory to the table thumping, linguistic
mnl skinner. the vitunerative Girdler. We believe the
victory was won in spite of Girdler not because of him.
It was won as practically all
racy are won, by an aroused public opinion. And public opinion
was aroused because it demands fair piny, and will fight any
force, labor, capital or what-not, that refuses to grant it.

In orime not only is the folly

our electric chairs. We use them more and more. But crime

Both of them happened to break, on the front pages of last
Sunday's paperi.
One was the aiTest of Robert Irwin, former inmate of an
Oregon reform school, who confessed to the murder of two
women and a man, in New York last Easter. The other was

If the cry of mad dog is raised everyone runs for shelter,
and the nearest shotgun. If a person suffering from leprosy
is reported the entire community is aroused. Out the victim

Comment
on the
Day s News
By FRANK JENKINS
IF YOU are Interested In France's
troubles, which are making head
lines these days, this paragraph from
a Paris dispatch will tell you most of
what you want to know:
"Premier Chautemps the office
of premier in France corresponds
roughly to the office of President
In the U. S.) is asking for the
'necessary powers' to re-establish
France's flscsl structure on a
firm bssis and restore the coun- '
- try'e confidence in itself by end
ing speculation abuses, conserv
ing gold reserves, balancing the
budget, watching over prices and
'reviving national economies.' "
LET'S see If we can put this para
graph Into a little plainer lan
guage: The "necessary powers" asked for
by the premier are DICTATORIAL
POWERS.
The "speculative abuses' referred
to have resulted from loss of confi
dence in the value of the franc. Wild
speculation always accompanies fall
ing money values. Gold reserves have
been lost because people have been
trying to get their gold out of France
and Into aafer countries.
NOTE, please, that France Is IN
TROUBLE because she has been
spending MORE THAN HER INCOME
DOUBLE tySrtfavte
and making up ths difference by In
creasing her debt. The time has fin
ally arrived when her people are get
ting scared.
That la ths story In a nutshell.
N
OW, if you happen to be In
mood for thinking, THINK OF
THIS:
The United States, ALSO, has been
spending MORE THAN ITS INCOME
and making up th. difference by IN
CREASING ITS DEBT. ' It has been
doing this longer than France.
Th. reason Franc, get. Into trou
ble first la that ber resources are
SMALLER and aha can't atand the
pace AS LONG. A rich man can paas
IOU'S longer than a poor man.
But. sooner or later, BOTH get Into
trouble, Franc Is In trouble NOW.
THE lesson of th. French trouble
la this:
W.'U find ourselves In tha same
boat In the course of time If we
don't quit spending more than we
take In. We're able to hold out long
er ONLY because we had more to be
gin with.
