Merck a. l7 Member Audit Brcea Cucolauoa Today's Roundup Br MALCOLM EPLEY AHO won and lost in the CIO strike now W fortunately at an end after seven weeks? On the surface, the answer might well be that everybody lost. Employes of the com panies took a beating in seven weeks' loss or disruption of em ployment Companies lost the production of materials they sell. The union failed to gain its declared objective of union shop. The general public felt the economic blow. The debit side of the ledger thus looks pretty heavy. Bu there is a brighter side. Out of the settlement ot thi dispute came clarification of a matter that has been a source " of disagreement and uncertainty time. That concerns the union maintenance provision that was set up by direc tive some time ago, and which has been amended as a basis of the settlement of this strike. Maintenance of membership means that man agement will require that employes already in the union remain in good union standing if they retain their Jobs. The troublesome ques tion here was just who is in the union, and who is not In other words, which employes were required to maintain their-union stand ing; to keep their jobs,, and which--were free of that requirement. Union and management bad disagreed over the status of a number of men, and the thing had never been fully clarified by the government agency which di rected union membership maintenance be made a part of the working arrangement between company and union. . . New Clause 4 HEN union and management announced VV settlement of the strike at Weyerhaeuser, wauna and Kesterson, they stated that a sub stitute; clause concerning union maintenance ' had been agreed upon. : This substitute clause, as shown in a leaflet handed Weyerhaeuser employes today, provides that as a condition of continued employment, every employe who confirms his membership in the union as of October 20, 1945, or becomes a News Behind The News . . " By PAUL MALLON WASHINGTON, Sept 27 The local sect of officials' who have been developing a theory that peace can be obtained only by giving things to Russia and Britain and making them, happy,, is now in meditative silence, momentarily at least. Mr. Truman quieted the cabinet dispute about giving the atomic bomb to Russia by personally 'assuming responsibility for a future decision. He also carefully fended off the ton of brickbats already in full flight toward the skull of Com merce Secretary Wallace by saying Mr. Wallace had not "insisted" upon the gift, but he did not' say Wallace had not advocated such a course. No Gift For Reds MX well-chaired informants say this means Russia does not get the bomb, at least not now, and not ever for sheer appeasement pur poses. Why should she? What justifies such a gift? To what use does she propose to put the bomb, certainly not to bring the four free doms to -the Balkans, Poland and Finland or anywhere. Indeed, not to promote any Truman international .policies or purpose expressed at the London council of ministers. All our Ideas were firmly turned down by Molotov according to reports the same day at the cabinet meeting. What good use could she thus possibly make of the bomb? EPLEY But more, I suspect the whole school . of for a long' Wallace thouKht of peace by appeasement is membership ', breaking up. More .officials here think we ought to get something in return for giving. They want to make appeasement sound, by making it twosided. They would like to see us win some points somewhere before doling out the money as well as the bomb. - New Turn For Britain . THE dickering over the money for Britain has taken a half right-turn in this direction. Lords Keynes and Halifax came in for their billions (without interest) with hats upended, ready to carry it away. Unfortunately they had left at home all their experts on empire preference tariffs discriminating against us, and such related trade matters which might afford us an opportunity to get something. Will Clay ton, head of our delegation, said no business could be talked without these men. So these experts are now on their way from London, while Keynes is holding luncheons and Halifax is otherwise propagandizing in favor of Britain getting the money without giving anything interest, repayment guarantees or trade con cessions. (Incidentally Britain's best friends are telling Halifax the propaganda is the worst the wily British have ever presented in this coun try, running now as it does to tearful stories about the war widows and orphans as if this advance were a charity to them rather than financing for 'socialism.) .. The War Today By DeWITT MacKENZlE Associated Press War Analyst MacKENZlE member of the union after that date, shall be GlarinQ Flaw required to maintain his membership in good ,,, " standing. r a The clear purpose of- this agreement Is to give employes a chance to declare themselves definitely in or to remain outside of the union. Those union membership declarations, made in writing to the company through the union, will then be made the basis of applying the union membership maintenance provision to ' employes. Those who declare themselves union men or women must remain in good union standing to keep their jobs. Those who fail to do so will not come under the maintenance of member ship clause. Everybody May Gain rHIS arrangement is definitely on the side of personal freedom for the employes. Offhand, it might seem' unfavorable to the unions, which usually are anxious to require union membership as a condition of employ ment. That would haye been- definitely the . case for all employes, had union shop been established. .' ." . However, one is led to wonder if the union, in the long run,' will not benefit by the new clause. It should remove-the feeling among workers that they are being forced to do any thing, by- company or . union. It will make their union membership strictly voluntary, and that should result, in1 increased loyalty and interest in union affairs. It puts the union in the position, of saying to a worker: - r "Nobody is forcing you to Join .anything, but by gosh, our union arid unionism have done a lot for working people,' and you ought to give the union the benefit of your membership and support. How about coming-in' of 'your own freewill?" ' : ' ' . . : Maybe we are haywire- In' our thinking, but that kind of appeal would mean a lot to us. It would attract us in the direction of union membership, and if we Joined, it would make us a better union man.-. -" " '. . In addition to eliminating a bone of con tention between union and management and a THE glaring flaw In .the theory of appease- I ment as a. method of keeping the peace is that we have received no guarantees yet estab- . lishing the good will or worthiness of those to be appeased... Indeed, quite the opposite, our position is being kicked around by both Russia ' and Britain (see LaskI speeches and Pravda articles.) . ' Basic Argument ' rIS week Pravda, for example, developed the same 'basic argument on the Medi terranean, used by Mussolini, in precisely the same words: "Not a single-geography book says the Mediterranean is a British sea." The League of Nations appeased Mussolini with Ethiopia, etc., but it did not prove an effective way of preserving peace, any more than greater ap- . peasement worked later with Hitler. He ap peased himself up : from nothing to strength enough to try to lick us. ' We also tried exactly the same. kind of ap peasement toward Japan sending her oil and scrap iron to make her happy. It did not work. Never has the blind and simple dis tribution of largesse to nations ever caused them to be either happy ' or . friendly. 1 Peace cannot be soundly established that way. To. endure, it must have the backing of mutual desire for it and be grounded' in. joint in terest which can come only through just and sound dealing. No . other . impetus can keep alive any peace deal. - Not A Policy - APPEASEMENT thus has never justified it self as a policy, and furthermore is not popular in this country; A magazine recently reported a plurality of Americans polled think "It is important for the U. S. to be on friendly terms with Russia, but not so important that we should make too many concessions to her." Our broad policy has grounds therefore for turning to ex-post facto appeasement giving the money, the bomb and other things after we get solid ground established to justify such confidence. . .. ."

It may her ald me advent oi rule by the people. Imagine what the disclosure of this meeting will mean to the minions who never have dared even to raise their eyes to gaze directly upon their emperor. We see him arrive in his automobile at the American embassy, im maculate in morning suit and silk hat. His dignified grand chamberlain backs out of the car, head lowered and face to wards the emperor, and bows the great personage out to the sidewalk. And then we see the mikado silk hat in hand, brought before MacArthur. The general is stu diously garbed in ordinary field khaki. He even wears his shirt open at the throat, without a tie. And not one of his many medals is on him. It's easy to believe that this may do much to shock medieval Japan out of its trance. Certain ly it may be expected to spur the current talk of possible ab dication by the mikado, or at least his abandonment of torn poral power to make way for the inauguration oi a popular form of government This needn't disturb his position as spiritual nead tf the DeoDle want him.
