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.

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.
