Re- cently, it will be remembered, the C. I.

The “break” between Lewis! and the President seems to be en- jtirely due to an the part of the C. I. O. leader ;that the President of the United States should be the subservient jtool of his organization. In other jwords, having supported sevelt during the campaign, | jthe C. I. O. was entitled to his ;full support in all of its batth While the President has unmis i takably given expression to a ! genui ympathy for organized labor and has contributed great- ly to its power in achieving its ends, there is no basis for a be: lief-that the Chief Executive ready to sign his name to a blank check made out in favor tain labor leaders, In the Wagner Act, and in his assumption tight for the wages and hours bill, | this section of President has clearly shown iendship for labor generally. This is quite different from gi ing a blanket endorsement to the abor leaders, regard- s of their effect upon the pub- interest.
