Member. : eSSSfeu M,mb,r uilt Aeaoetated Pre p Bureeu Ctrculatloa Today's Roundup By MALCOLM EPLEY AS this Is written, a break in the AFL lum ber strike in the northwest appears im minent, on the basis of a compromise acceptance of wage hikes in the Taconia area. Possibility of a resumption of work will come as happy news in the AFL-organizcd section of the , Klamath basin lumber indus try. It follows the announced compromise which prevented a further strike in the CIO operations in this territory, which had work stoppage dif ficulties immediately after VJ day. .5 If both CIO and AFL opera . tions set on an active basis now, the lumber Industry will EPLEY have weathered a critical period fairly well, though not without losses. j '-.'. In most Industries, strikes seem to be ac cepted as inevitable in the process of reconver sion. The CIO experience, after the trouble ; here, showed that they can be averted. e e e e From The Good Book WITH the 121st psalm, we renew today a tradition established last year when wes carried in this column dally Bible readings in . the period between Thanksgiving and Christ mas. ' :.'-r The experiment last year was a success.- We were surprised at the number of. supposedly "worldly guys" who told us they liked it, and - some said it was the first Bible reading they had done in years. We hope it inspired many, as it did us, to carry readings in the Good Book beyond the limited excerpts - selected for this column. This old world has just come through a baptism of fire. Revulsion has set in, and it won't be difficult, for a time, to make elabor ate plans for permanent world accord. But what will happen when this first revulsion wears off? We well remember the unpopularity of war in the first decade after World War. I, and we well remember what happened in the IS jears after that If the world is going to make its good In tentions stick this time, it is going to have to build on a firmer foundation than mere machin ery for peace set up in the period of postwar rebound. In the long run, it will" be principles, rather than machinery, that count. Those prin ciples are laid out in the Book from which we re going to quote in this between-the-holidayS ' period. Those limited quotations can be only suggestive, but if in our small way we will have done anything to stimulate active loyalty, among even a few people, to the principles and ideals in which lie the hope of the world, it Tvill have been worth while. And so, here's' the first of the dans' series," to be concluded Christmas eve: - -PSALM 121 , I will lift up mine eyes unto the hills, from whence cometh my help. ? My help cometh from the Lord, which made " heaven and earth. He will not suffer thy foot to be moved; he that keepeth thee will not slumber. ... Behold, he that keepeth Israel shall' neither lumber nor sleep. . ' The Lord is thy keeper.; tfie "Lord fB thy rl hade upon thy right hand.; -f ". -. "'. The sun shall-not smjte thee by day, nor the moon by night. . '. - ' " The Lord shall preserve thee from all evil; he shall preserve thy soul. - -v. The Lord shall preserve- thy: going out and thy coming in from this time forth, and even for evermore. . ' . " ' ' situation is that labor Is a completely controlled entity, a centrally managed, thoroughly disci plined, wholly directed group in national life. It is set up like an army with a general headquarters, boards of strategy, publicity de partments, field officers, organizers like recruit ing officers, and the union man himself is like a private In the ranks. He has no more rights than an army private. e e e Why They Occur IN view of this condition, it Is necessary to look beyond the claims made for individual strikes in any search for an. answer as to why they occur, the Washington bus and railway strike, for Instance, which finally, and because of recurrence, caused the government to selie the lines, involved an old case, unsettled for many months. There would seem to be no reason why the strike was called first the day the national labor management conference assembled here to discuss and arrange a conclusive peace-pact. What I specifically mean is no necessity arose at that particular time involving any of the factors of the case to warrant a walk-out . No government agency had denied anything just the day before, or anything like that. The case of the CIO auto workers involved their many months old demand for a thirty per cent wage increase. Long range, indirect negotiations had strained and broken many times, but singularly enough, this strike call developed also the day the labor-management conference reached its deadlock. ,j - The orders were issued within a few hours after the deadlock became apparent within the conference and before any announcement was permitted to leak to the public press. (It was published two days later.) New talk and threats of the telephone strike in various sections started about the same time, developing along the same lines.. News Behind The News By PAUL MALLOlf WASHINGTON, Nov. 26 -Intelligent think ing people are asking themselves (and me) why these strikes develop, ebb and flow, so systematically through the country. They cannot see why in a time of world crisis when the necessity is great for the nation to succeed with her reconversion and produc tion, there should be any strikes at all. The muddled announcements and talk about fears of inflation, unemployment and all such sur face indications, leaves them hopelessly con fused. They want to know the answer. The first point glaringly evident behind the - New Tactics . .' ....'."THESE .facts, I think, are- further evidence of I what 'I have' suggested before, namely, that f labor has developed new tactics. Up to this post war series of strikes, labor management was largely an uncentralized operation. It functioned In-a democratic way in wnat mignt c-e cauea a democratic process. On the one hand was the A F of L and on the other the CIO, and in their functions they could be likened to the democratic and repub lican parties In the management of the nation. one a majority, the other a minority. Following the analogy through completely, the other Independent unions could be likened to the minority parties which have only a few scattered votes. In theory one acted as a bul wark against the other, a restraint to keep it on the right path. It never functioned in a totalitarian way or under centralized control, or at least its actions never before showed symptoms of such a system. This time the old conservative AFL streetcar workers acted simultaneously with the great CIO body of auto workers. I do not charge collusion. To try to dig inside that situation to find the proof, would be as tedious as pursuing an electrically magnetized needle through all the nation's haystacks. But. the results came out ' that way as everyone can see. . . . I must therefore conclude that the strikes were called against the conference, therefore against Mr. Truman and against the govern ment. They were simply manifestations of ' organized labor pressure. This is .my answer. No other conclusion seems -Vpossible .from .logical analysis, particularly since :thy" were called immediately after management came for ward with a program to make labor responsible for its actions. ; The program took up many suggestions you have seen published in this column, Including proposals for. legislation establishing the prin ciple of union responsibility, including aban donment of its immunity under the anti-trust laws, the right to sue and be sued, and equal responsibility under the national labor relations .act. Union Responsibility THE proposals did not :involve any settlement of , the wage' controversy or other elements Involved In. -a -particular strike discussion, but merely laid down the program of union respon sibility. . Now, if all these facts are true, as I have 'said, the ultimate crisis has arrived in this mat '.ter. On the one hand you have evidence of union centralization of controls on a national scale, but at the same time a union refusal to accept any legal responsibility for exercising those controls , This, then, is the time the government and the country must decide where they are going. If the position of the unions is maintained, the economy and the politics of the nation will be exercised by them. If no settlement is reached, their controls can continue to be maintained. The decision cannot be delayed one way or an other. These are the 'Symptoms behind the situa tion as I see it and the explanation of why the strikes .have ;so. systematically developed.

HOMt PIRMANtNT LONDON, Nov. 26 Well, just showing wlint a good prophet i mil, ncre we arc in .London after flying the Athinllc on the nrst ice or a world tour which wo shall chronicle daily in this column. H e r e I should report to you rather belatedly that whon I speak of "we" I'm not employing the editorial Kr o n o u n. I ave a partner an encriictlc young woman who will work wiut me on mis assignment Now, now get your tongues out of your checks and meet Mrs. MacKenzie. From here on it will be the two Macks. Botli of us have been busy combing the highways and by ways of London since our ar rival and our outstanding im pression, apart from the battle scars and terrible drnbness, is that Britain's capital is very, very tired. Of course, some of the country districts probably don't register the same degree of weariness, but what is true in London undoubtedly is true of other localities which under went the scourge of bombinc. This isn't snap judgment on our part, for we know our Eng land and her peoule from many years of residence here. Every. where you go In the capital you sec strain and great weariness registered on drawn faces. Tremendous Letdown When I wos here in 1942 there were strained faces, too, for the war was at its height. But then you didn't notice Die weariness so much because everybody was going all out for victory and the dangers and thrills of battle kept the country keyed up. But with war's end there has come a tre mendous letdown. My partner and I spent considerable time yesterday talking with strangers whom we met here and there, and a woman bus conductor summed the position up rather well for us. We are tired she said and her voice had that dead level which bespeaks Intense weari ness. "The war kept us going. but we thought that when peace came wo sliouia get roller from the hard times but we havon't got it." There was no bitterness In her tone Just tiredness which re flected the harsh privations which the people of this country still are enduring. Relief will come, but Its a good distance away us yet. Tlio food Isn't so good as It was whon I was hero in 11)42, 'and such necessities us clothing and shoes are hard to get. Luxuries lire a tiling of the dim and distant past except for the few folk who dobaso themselves by trading in the black market which persists despito the efforts of the law to abolish it. Relief Slow In Coming One great reason why reliof is slow In coming to the peoplo of England Is that the govern ment Is diverting a largo meas ure of manufacturers to foreign trade, in an effort to bolster John Bull's lean purse. Sir Stafford Crlpps, chairman of the board of trado, has preached "austerltv" so vigorously to the public that they call him Sir Austerity Crlpps a bit of humor which has a rather harsh con notation for the man in the street who has patches on his trousers. Now don't get the wrong Im pression from what I've said. England is dog-tired, and more than a little disappointed be cause peace hasn't brought relief from the privations of war but John Bull hasn't lost his fight ing spirit. British War Brides Arrive In America PORTLAND, Ore., Nov. 26 (fP) Five of seven British war brides awaited transportation to the east "today after urrtvmg here on the British cargo vessel Herefordshire. Two of the women were met by their husbands Major Ed ward Lynch, Yakima, Wash., and Raymond Torin, St, Louis. Another of the brides, Mrs. John Dixon, learned she had ar rived in the states before her Florida husband. An eighth English girl, Doro thea Dessauer, said she would marry Garth Williams "Just the minute" she arrives in New York City.
