This power cver the economic life of the nation | has been placed in the hands of minorities by the Federal government, through a series of laws enacted in recent years. The supposition was that labor needed this favored legislative treatment to give it an equality of bargaining power with management, and at the time there was a basis for this belief. Yet what we have now, especially in the key industries, is not an | equality of bargaining power with employers, but a power over the very life of the nation and a power | which is being flagrantly ana defiantly abused Mr. Schwellenbach, with his four-point plan which amounts to a demand for compulsor bitration this dispute, may succced in settling the petroleum strike. But that will be no solution of the problem Last week saw CIO pickets throw a blockade around a big refinery in Indiana. These strikers did not represent the employees in the plant, who wanted to stay on their jobs. They did not even work there Yet they surrounded the plant with their automo- biles, parked bumper-to-bumper, and, armed with clubs, beat up employees who tried to go tq work and held the plant in a ate of siege until the State Guard was mobilized. In Texas, about 140 employees of the Lower Colorado River Authority have staged a surprise attack, cutting off electric power for a score of communities and 100,000 people. Lacking power, these people are without water and without me of refrigeration, which leaves them at the mercy 140 stril These are not exceptional, but typical of the consequences of strikes aimed at key pol a8 1o try. And Mr. Schwellenbach, however good Admiral s, cannot settle them all through personal and individual intervent The remedy, if the: to be a remedy, lies in a comprehensive and intelligent legislative approach to the problem with a view to depri labor of the right to ak its power at the expense of the country. This does not mean that any legitimate labor interest should be rificed curtailed. It does mean, however, that the American people as a whole also have rights which should be protected ainst » excesses of irresponsible minorities, and it is v the duty of the President, his Secretary of Labor and Congress to see to it that this is done seas which sur- that that only long as recently, he would as a warmonger. blood-letting in £ of there can be what - must remain convinced of it aggressors should have a chance to be as after Pearl us to recover thus positions, ich it for until we can be y, we must, keep our® armed enemy in the Demccratic leaders say privately that the House in its own sweet | time will pass the Senate version of the Full Employment Bill, and will authorize some boost in em- ergency unemployment. compensa- tion, but will not go as high as the $25 top advocated by Truman. | . * south of France,” Churchill con- fessed. “They treated me well there.
