FUTURE STRAZEGY Enlightened Labor Policy (New York Times) Labor unions have come in for in recent months that it is a genuine so much criticism urce of pleasure when the opportunity arises to say something of a commendatory nature. Such an opportunity is presented in the case of t'u- Minnesota Federation of Labor (AFL). During the first ten months of 1946, a year that produced a record crop of labor disputes, the 125.000 members of this group lost only about one-fourth of 1 per cent of working time as a result of strikes. Moreover, the record was no accident. It was an accurate reflection of the enlightened point of view of this organization. Members of the Minnesota Federation of Labor have the good sense to realize that a policy of union | responsibility is an asset and that it pays dividends by attracting good firms to the state. Thus, while many other unions were raising funds to carry on mpaigns for wages in excess of the Government ceilings then prevailing, the Minnesota Federation of Labor was soliciting nickels and dimes from its | members so that it could raise enough money tol jacquaint business men all o the count with its successful record in the matter of industry disputes. Manufacturers were invited to write the Federation a desirable location ing mutually profitable | and to seek its help in findi in the state and in establis Jahor relations. If the unions of the as a whole in recent nation | year? hed based their policies on the philosophy of lhv ) Minnesuts Federation of Labor, remedial labor leg- | islation wowd not today be the Number One item on the Congressia@s' p=gram. It might not even be on that program. A Puppl Speaks (Cincinaeti Enquirer) Premier Shigeru Yoshids of Japan has declared in | the plainest terms his belin taat American military forces should remain in Japss indefinitely, long after any treaty of peace is signe¢ He wants Amm- can supervision, not UN supervision. And he does hide his fear that Japan would have tteable with \hv to think of Ycshida as a high-minded, democratically individual, chosen frecly by the Japanese But for most of the world Yoshida is simply a tool of General MacArthur and of the United States. His position is that of a Quisling, and is comparabe to t of the puppet rulers who presided over Manchuria, the Philippines and North China under Japanese occupation. Undoubtedly, tle Japanese agree with Yoshida, today, in preferring American supervision to that o the U They have only to look at Germany to see the tragic results of divided authorit; UN supervision over Japan would entail debates anc deadlocks before each directive was issued to the Tokyo Government Yet, the fact remains that military occupation has served its purpese in Japan The surveillance required from here onward is precisely the sort of responsibility the UN is fitted to carry. The longer we remain in exclusive control of Japan, the more | we feed the suspicious of the world that an American imperialism n the making.
