The latest to cross this desk Is a missive bearing the bclligerant title "Headquarters, Fighting Homefolk ol Fighting Men" and comes to us from Roaring Fork Ranch, Glenwood Springs. Colora do. It Is signed by a Eugene R. Guild. Captain, USA Ret., for that organization. The gist of the Utter is this: (It Is addressed to President Tru man). "Our fighting GI's have the big Rest 6tnke in this steel crisis. We who fight for them ask that you Intercede for them. "Exercise your 'inherent riRht' by seizing the unions as well as the plants to make sure the steel workers will work. You can then work them how, where and when you direct. "You say vou can seise property but not perrons? But have you not already legally seined the per sons of hundreds or thousands of our men and put them to work with guns . . . etc." Isn't the world in a bad enough plight already without Retting on the left wing wagon for a swift ride to complete submission, cap tain? You probably were against the steel seizure as a governmental action. You probably knew that if this seizure were allowed without objection your country was far cone down the fatal path of Social- Ism And yet In misdirected fervor for the fate of our men overseas you are willing to ladm t the "inherent rights" the president claims and tun over ths country to mm. Are you so sure you mean that? And, much more important, are you so sure that the men over seas, doing the fighting for all of lis, would want that? Are you en tirely sure, captain, that every man under arms in Korea is fight ing, solely because he was ordered to? Do you deny that a Rreat many of those men micht believe in the things they are fitrhting for? For freedom and the right to work Where, when and a? they will? You urge in your letter that if Mr. Truman doesn't seize the workers he at least grant an equal pay boost to soldiers to that he wishes ior the unions. Will that send h bullet straighter or harder than before? Will, double pay for the men get them home any fast er? (A mercenary army has yet to succeed if you have read your military history.) Instead of this fruitless shouting bout drastic measures such as you outline I suggest that you turn With the certainty that the Su preme Court will soon be speaking on the constitutionality of President Truman's seizure of the steel in dustry, it Is premature to discuss In all its aspects Federal Judge Pine's ruling that the move was Illegal. But Pine surely deserved com mendation for having the courage to assert his convictions at a mo ment when he was under the great est of pressures. The act alone is healthy as a re-statement of the important and independent role the Judiciary has in marking out the bounds of federal power. Pine concluded quite simply that there was nothing explicit in the Constitution giving the President power to seize the steel- mills, nor was there any language which by a reasonable interpretation could bfc stretched to cover such action. In other words, he spoke in flat contradiction to the government's lawyers who contended in effect that the President's authority in tune of emergency is practically without legal limit. BRAVERY Bearing in mind the risks of lim iting executive authority in time of general war or perhaps even in a state of near-war, the Su preme Court may not support Pine.

Countless nights of lost sleep have gone down on the heavenly roster over questions less vexing than these. And yet there it is Another couole was unable to . . . and therefore missed a chance at S5000 (taxable). Please, fellas, from here on out let's lust stick to the main per formers and forget the pitiful dregs that drop by the wayside. But whether it does or not, the I judge's decision will stand out bravely against the all-too-glib no tion that the President's powers are what he thinks they should be. Pine stated a fundamental of American life when he declared that the chief executive is account able to law no less than any oth er American. One of the dismal by-products of the decision was the action of Philip Murray, CIO president, in promptly ordering a steel strike. He must have foreseen that an appeals court might well stay the effect of Pine's ruling until the Supreme Court had reviewed the case. Yet he plunged the nation into a crippling shutdown with hardly a moment's delay. It is not intended to imply that Murray has no fair issue in the steel dispute. Indeed, the Question of where the truth and the wise course lay in uus matter Is ex ceedingly difficult to determine.

But it is no less sure that the whole progress of collective bar gaining procedures will be utterly wiped out unless both parties to sucn a dispute now and henceforth can sit down around a table and make a really earnest try at find ing a solution. Murray should forRet his strike and both union officials and man agement should get back to the business which is primarily their's settinR the terms of work in the steel industry. And thev should do this regardless of what the Sup reme Court says about the Presi dent's power to seize or not to seize.
