{ any other sort of quarrel. The fact is sometimes overlooked in appraising strikes, the proximate cause of which is always a decision to stop working on the part of employeds. But the act of an employer which provokes the decision to stop working may be no less responsible for the work stoppage.

New Strike by Managemént (Washington Post) It takes two to make a labor dispute as well as is, however, a clear case of a work stoppage directly occasioned and fomented by employer action. The provocation to strike was extreme—and from all indi- cations, deliberate—on the part of the company presi- dent, Sewell L. Avary. Mr. Avery, like John L. Lewis, has repeatedly defied the authority of the War Labor Board. In November, 1942, he flatly rejected a board order, reached by a unanimous vote of public, labor and industry members, to include a maintenance of mem- bership clause in his contract with ihe CIO union of his employees. Later, when the President per- sonally directed him to comply with the board’s order, he did so,asserting that the decision was taken “under duress” and only because of the President’s authority as “Commander in Chief in time of war.” In January of this year, Mr. Avery defied the WLB ‘%again when it ordered him temporarily to continue in force his contractual relations with the union pending an election to redetermine its status as their bargaining agent. For three months Mr. Avery has refused to pay any heed to the board’s order. The case should have been referred to.the President long ago—before frus- | tration and aggravation led the union members to go | out on strike.
