HOW STRIKES ARE STOPPED The long, costly General Motors strike ended when ized they were suckers, sacrificing income merely to get in the end what automobile woikers in other plnnts had got without loss of working time or pay. The steel | strike ended when the government grudgingly acknowl- edged the principle that wage boosts must be reflected in price boosts different. The railway strike was a direct strike against the government. It ended as soon as it became appa ent to the two union leaders involved that the govern- ment was going to use all its powers to break the strike. It was not public opinion, or the conscience of the strike leaders, or even the threat of legislation, which forced Messrs. Whitney and Johnson to admit failure and call off the strike. It was the firmness of the President in announcing he would use every weapon in the vast armory of his war powers to move pas- sengers and freight. It was the calling up of reserve pilots by the Nayy, the swift mobilization of transport planes by the Army, the mustering of all naval per- gonnel with railroad experience, the announced de- Similar preparations, less obvious and less con- erete, were a factor in stopping the coal strike, although very large concessions were made to the coal miners in order to buy their cooperation. And the maritime strike was headed off, not through bargaining, but through the grim, methodical preparations the Navy had made to take over and operate the, 3,000 ships of our merchant marine. In a word, the power of government is there, ready for use when the Chief Executive finds warrant in the gravity of the emergency for exercising those powers. His duty is the protection of the public welfare. And until government ceases to be government, the neces- sary powers are there It would be better, of course, if the President had | enough members of the automotive union finally real- | In more recent major strikes, the pattern has been | * gision to use troops to handle trains where neecssary. | severe losses from the kamikaze suicide fliers and the baka bomb. Those eighty-two days cost us the death |in battle of thousands of gallant officers and enlisted ! men in Army, Navy and Marines. Total battle casual- ties were 47,376, In honoring the memory of these men we might alsa do well to remember every day that recklessness and carelessness at home are costing unnecessary casualties of peace at a rate of about 38 to 1 compared |with the Okinawa battle. At the present rate of accident casualties in the United States, a like period of eighty-two days results in 21,300 accidental deaths, {or not far from half of the battle casualties of all | sorts in that engagement, the total casualties, includ- |ing deaths and injuries, of 1,831,500. These casualties |are no less tragic because they serve no purpose, and | could be avoided. l’lam T.l"( (Cincinnati Enquxrcr\ Plain talk—and a very plausible theory regarding present national and world conditions advanced { the other day in a commencement address at Catholic University by Neil MacNeil, assistant managing editor of the New York Times, when he charged that Moscow |is the deliberate manufacturer of “the worst con- | fusions” in which the world finds itself, the purpose being to “break down existing political order, faith and morals.” Mr. MacNeil discussed the trouble-making pro- pensities of Communists and Communist agents in | domestic activities, citing the infiltration tactics used to control or sway the most important medium of { public enterp —notably in the field of communica- tions. He cited Russia’s rather sorry record for col- |laboration in the international field, asserting that Soviet diplomats were using the same tactics followed by domestic Communists when they set out to take over a union—they were “attempting to wear out the finally, in desperation, they will agree to Russian demands or allow the matter to go by default.” Mr. McNeil added that “this refusal to make peace is the greatest crime of all history.” Tllustrating the truth of the New York Times ex- ecutive’s contention, Britain’s Foreign Secretary Ernest Bevin the ve same day was asserting, amid an fovaticn from or Party members, that “no nation is going to keep me in a state of war forever with other countries through lack of agreement on peace treaties.” It requires only half an eye to the foreign situation to discern how profoundly upsetting to the political, social, economic and moral equilibrium of the world is the Moscow attitude precluding the estab- lishment of a stable political structure in Europe. We long have felt that aimless criticism of Russia, where Moscow is tryving to put something over may indeed serve a useful purpose.

Despite the fact thst Murray had kept.all his promises to the White House, Truman re- cently told Chester Bowles that John L. Lewis was the only trust- worthy labor leader in the coun- try. ! Instead of mentioning this, how- ever, Murray said that if an effec- tive pie cf price-control legisla- tion passed Congress he would join with all other labor men and with management in a conference de- voted to guaranteeing an end to strikes for the duration of effective Pprice control. Truman, however, was not too| enthusiastic about this. He sug- gested that Murray follow the mat- ter up with Secretary of Labor Lew Schwellenbach. This was an eye-opener to Mur- s#ay, for he knew that Schwellen- bach was on his way to Alaska for a long vacation ATOM PRIZE FIGHT It happened at the Louis-Conn fight. Bernie Baruch had ordered a solid row of what were described as ringside seats for his guests. His guests turned out to be mem- bers of the United Nations Atomic Commission, all fight experts in their own right. After Joe Louis disposed of Billy Conn for the night, Baruch leaned over to Russian delegate Andrei Gromyko and Australia’s hard-hit- ting Herbert Evatt. “Well, that's the end of the Jight,” he explained. “When the referee waves his hands like that bhe has decided that the fight is oyer.” “Do you mean,” sion is final?” is one place you can't f\'_xerclse the veto power.” asked Russian’ delegate Gromyko,” that his deci-jsulhvan: George Killian, | mer Budget Director of California; “Right,” replied Australia’s Evatt.' | Monroney of Oklahoma. and Evatt crossed foils again.
