Here is how the Pollyannas say | it can happen: Italy will fold up like an accor- dion and we-will step in and take possession without much more than doublin’ up our fists. The Al- tied armies in the middle east will start rollin’. into the Balkans at the same time Russia begins. an all-out drive on the east. Just to} make it more interesting for the} Axis, commandos and - rangers | will keep making lightning raids} from Norway to the Mediterran- ean, all of which will cause Ger- many to have a complete nervous breakdown. This, they say, can all be accomplished in a matter of three or four months at most, and then seeing that we have knock- ed her partners out of the fight, Japan will start screamin’ “So sorry, so sorry” and throw up the sponge. If you want to make it a surer and better bet you might have Mount Vesuvius erupt and bury two or three towns, and a tidal wave and earthquake hit the Nips just for good measure. But folks my guess is that we are gonna have to do it the hard way and if we can finish and col- ‘ect an “unconditional Surren- der” by 1945 I’ll feel that we've still done a bang up job. Of course if they were to turn the whole blame ‘war over to Henry J. Kaiser and he accepted the contract and agreed to win it been overshadowed by its imme- diate threat to war production, but | analysts here see it lcaving its mark deep on the next several years. Veteran observers attach great significance to Assistant Presi- dent James Byrnes’ espousal of; anti-strike legislation. This move by the Administration's No. 2 man indicates a revolutionary Admin- istration tack. Always before, the administra- tion fought off all attempts to pass legislation restricting organ-| ized labor. Within the past three weeks, Madame Secretary Perkins and other Administration spokes- men were sniping at the anti- srike proposal. It is a justified con- clusion that their views were pre- approved, at. the Whte House. Cab- inet members do not customarily run counter to the boss man’s pol- icy. 5 Startling Development The startling development that} Byrnes has thrown his consider- able weight in favor of anti-strike laws marks the first time the Ad- ministration has tried anything but sweetly reasonable persuasion in dealing with labor chiefs. The growing group of political wiseacres which sees Byrnes be- ing groomed for a place on the 1944 presidential ticket reads deeper meaning into. the choice of the assistant president as the first Administration spokesman to support restrictive laws. It is their thesis the Adminis- tration has concluded that the lack pf a firm labor policy has been increasingly unpopular over the country, and has determined to bow to this political wind. Byrnés, already being given a build-up, was named sponsor of: the new labor line to increase his stature further. Be .

The recent trou- bles in industry have caused even staunch friends of organized la- bor, who support labor's gains, to conclude that some curb on per- sonal powers is necessary. Reforms Favored It is notable that many who fa- vor continuance pansion of organized labor’s social gains at the same time differen- tiate sharply between rank-and- file labor and its entrenched lead- ers. It is also reported by some congressmen that large bloes of organized Jabog also favor reforms, forced if nee@B&ary, to prevent la- bor dictatership and to make the labor movement miore a democracy and less an oligarchy of self-per- petuating policy committees who give orders instead of carrving out the directives of the member- ship. Even Senator Robert Wagner, labor's elder statesman and best friend, protested sharply at the reported use of the Labor Rela- tions Act bearing his name to justify the coal strike. So, these are the develoning trends in the labor picture, accel- erated by the ena] strike, as gen- erally seen in Waskineton: (1) la- bor’s basic gains will be protect- ed; (2) Jabor will be foreed to acs cept added resnonsibilities: (3) the Administration will not be so amenable to every whim of labor chiefs; (4) powers of the Jabor tf- tans will be curbed.

At one time we had more than 2,500 people but this time rationing will hit us hard from the tourist point of view.” The others nodded agreement. “Guess I'll get back to my hoein’,” one of them said. “Like as not I'll never get it finished.” As I left, fhe Town Clerk press- | ed a postcard into my hand.
