Dulles was shuttling back and HITLER the E ssful social system through the use of the profit motive. Under government control this motive is entirely lost. We do not contend for a moment that monetary reward is the only driving and social advance, but cer- \d a highly suce force in our economic tainly it is too important a force to eliminate. Our own experience should teach us that. The reports from New South Wales will lead to the same conclusion A Chance to Work (Washington Post) It's a good thing that Congress doesn't have m’ ratify the Declaration of Independence. No doubt it would stumble upon the assertion that “All men are created equal” and decide that it had better not ap- prove any sentiment so radical until election day had passed. Apparently it has made precisely this decision in respect to the permanent establishment of a Fair Employment Practice Committee. The House Labor Committee suddenly suspended its hearings on this measure until after November 7. And though the Senate Committee on Education and Labor is currently going through the motions of taking public testimony, few expect it to report the bill out until all the ballots are in 1If this sort of politicking seems shameful as far as the Democrats are concerned, it is difficult to consider it anything other than witless on the part of the Re- publicans. The Democrats have some reasons, ho! ever indefensible, for fudging on a pledge to assure economic opportunity to Negroes. But the Republi- cans, in their party platform, have gone on record unequivocally in support of an FEPC. It is difficult to account for the failure of most GOP members of | Congress to press this issue, save on the theory that they're soliciting the votes of their Southern Demo- cratic colleagues. Legislative establishment of an something that can be safely postponed FEPC is not The need for it will be even greater in peace than it has been | in war. When reconversion gets under way, there is bound to be a profound upheaval in employment. If the hiring and firing of workers takes place on a iscriminatory basis, gross injustice and hardship is certain to be visited upon minorty elements in our | populaton, Negroes in particular. “The right to work,” | the Rev. ! mittee on Education and Labor, “is the least common denominator of democracy.” To the extent that this lementary fight is denied to men on grounds of race, religion or national origin, democracy is debased and stultified. i In the ugly transit strike which took place recently in Philadelphia, we had warning of the desperate | lengths to which bigoted men may go if racial issues are allowed to creep into questions of employment. | It took firm action by the Army to force observance |of the principle that all men are equally entitled to {a chance to work. But when that firm action had | been taken, it became apparent that only a very few | Philadelphia transit workers were in sympathy with | the discrimination which had been threatened.
