Labor Legislation; \ullher in lLMo Nor in Hate New York Sumn) Members of Congress identified cnly as “responsible Republican leaders” are indirectly quoted to the effect that the Republican majority in the Senate and House of Representatives in the next Congress does not plan punitive” ation against labor, It is not clear this vague declaration means, but if it means Republican majority in Congress will discard vindictiveness and haste in the approach to legislation on a subject of such critical importance there will be general applause from all quarters o groun of Republicans, whether responsible Jead ers or not, can speak for all members of the majorit, in the Eightieth Congress. That much is clear from what has been said in the days since the election of mber 5. Senator Wayne Morse of Oregon, for ample, has interpreted the results as imposing an obligation upon Republicans to make almost no change in the labor laws. Senator Joseph H. Ball of Minnesota, reading the same returns, has interpreted them as calling for fundamental amendment of the Wagner Act to make it equally fair to labor and management and for drastic restriction of the loose powers of the National Labor Relations Board It is not the duty of Republican leaders in Con- ss to censor such expressions of opinfon or to block legislative proposals. It is not their duty to pretend to a monotonous unanimity of opinion that has never | existed in any party--except possibly one within reach { the cable from Moscow. What Senators White, Taft, Vandenberg and \‘Vh(‘ll\ and Representati Martin, Halleck, Brown and others can do is to set appropriate mood for consideration of all proposs however well or ill advised. Such a mocd, it may fairly be suggested, should avoid the extremes of cmotional haste and of cold-blooded dalliance. What is truly and fundamentally corrective and constructive | will be punitive oniy for those who are in the business of exploiting unfair advantages. One thing that Senator Mo said in his post- election comment is obviously true-—that the Repub- licans could not have won in many districts without the votes cf hundreds of thousands of members of labor unions. In some quarters this wholly obvious fact will be used as an argument for stalling on leg- islation until after 1948, but the vote © November 5 was not a vote for stalling and inaction. Those mem- | bers of unions who voted for Republican candidates did so because the secret ballot provided them with their only effective weapon against abuses of |m\wr\ of which they are just as well aware ds are those | outside labor. unions. There is general agreement that | the Republicans should go slow about writing sweep- ing new labor legislation or about wholesale repeal of existing laws. But the caution of this approach is justified both by the seriousness of the whole problem and by consideration of the further harm that could be done by hastily contrived or vindictively inspired | remedies. any wl that the | brought THE DAIL\ ALASKA EMPIRE «JUNEAU ALASKA THURSDAY JANUARY 9, 1947 e e \,- 20 Y E A RS A GO from B s 7 BARBER MOUNT JUNEAU LODGE NO. 147 S \ THE EMPIRE Urnieé S suor SECOND and FOURTH l BARANOF HOTEL Monday of each month Lower Lobby in Scottish Rite Temple JANUARY 9, 1927 9 a.m. to 6 p.m. or Phone 800 beginning at 7:30 p. m. . .
