In France a rhythmic T | series of strikes has been called to wreck the govern- | ment chosen by a majority of the people’s representa- tives voting in the National Assembly. In Italy strikes are being widely applied for a similar purpose. Labor est is expected to spread there the Communists Pourth Avenue Bldi .

Both Mr. Green for the AFL and Mr. Murray for the CIO have wisely and patrioti- cally decided that Labor must not take this dangerous path. They know it would throw the nation into a turmoil the results of which none could foretell This does not mean that they have given up their fight. The CIO program specifically outlines the form it will take. The three great Labor bodies, in- cluding the railway unions, will work out a joint at- tack. Every member of Congress who voted for the act will be opposed at the polls. Every effort by any employer to undermine collective bargaining will be resisted. The constitutionality of the law will be tested in the courts, provision by provision. This is a line of battle the public will endorse as well within the rights of American citizenship. Indeed, the opera- tion of so complex a law could not be worked out without some such exhaustive test. But the procedure lies fully within the American tradition. We have the President’s promise to use every means within his power to make the law work. We have the undertaking of the Labor leaders to sanction no general uprising against it. We have the assurance of Congress that provisions proved unduly burdensome may be revised. Even the darkest spot in the picture, the walkout of the coal miners, now shows encouraging light. We believe the American way will from pa suspcted LABOR’'S BIG OPPORTUNITY Labor's to the adoption of the Taft-Hartley law over the President's veto was to be angry respons expected. Having worked itself into a frenzy against the measure, it could hardly fail to express resentment after the decision had been made. If from the minute n the public made clear its determination to have and labor had elected to co-operate, wh the rights of labor management brought more into balance of might not have been written into the law. closely some the things it now finds most objectionable Labor did not choose to co-operate and that's that. The action of bituminous coal miners in laying down their tools has dramatized labor's resentment, although it is| doubtful whether the miners would have taken that step if their normal vacation period had been more than a few days away. In other fields, labor spokes- men link existing pending sirikes with the new law, although the connection is not clear. It is not this first reaction, however, which will give to most Americans their deepest concern. The | longer range policy of labor is of much more interost to the public. Union leadership has an opportunity to display some of the statesmanship, the past lack of | which was a major factor in bringing this legislation into existence. Such statesmanship would call for giving the law a fair trial. If it contains flaws—and few of its most ardent advocates would contend that it is perfect—the public, which demanded fair play for both employers and employees, will insist on their correction. But per course of resistance or sabotage will merely serve to convince the general public that did not enough. In any conflict with the public any minority, no matter how well organized cr how vociferous, must lose. a big opportunity to demonstrate that it wants nothing more than fair it will be inviting further public disapproval Ifie Washinglon Merry-Go-Round (Comtinued frum Page Onej or gleams of prevail That They Can Depend On (Seattle Times) The Port of Seattle has recognizedswhat long has been needed for better relations between Seattie and Alaska—the necessity of a positive program to give Alasl the kind of service they want.
