Labor Bosses Certain
To Be Flattened^
Dewey Wins Election
Have Worked Saves Into
Position Where lefeat
Will Prove Then 'Fakers'
By Frank R. Kent
If the expected happens in No
vember and Gov. Dewy is elected
by a decisive majoaty, the big
bosses of organized lior, particu
larly those of the CIO, will be
politically flatter thin the well
known'pancake.' Poo with a nota
ble lack of wisdom, they have
worked themselves jfito a position
where defeat will «pose them as
a lot of political jakers who for
years have been Operating on a
cheap bluff. And / the odds favor
defeat.
For more than I decade leaders
of the CIO ha* thrown their
weight around Washington, bullied
membtrs of Congress, been fawned
upon ky public officials and exerted
great nfluence in both the execu
tive aid legislative branches of the
Govenment. With the most ex
pensi* and elaborate publicity and
propafanda machine in the coun
try, md complete White House
suppot, they have become a domi
nant actor in administration poli
cies tnd performance. There is
hardl: a phase of Government into
which they have not protruded. To
a considerable degree they have
been running the country'. Cer
tainlj. until 1947, for 14 years Con
gress,under the CIO dictation, and
with presidential co-operation, en
acted every law the labor bosses
desirtf and killed every bill of
whicl they disapproved.
. Propaganda Accepted.
As an exhibition of congressional
subsrviency and cowardice it was
matfied only by that displayed in
the old days of the Anti-Saloon
Leagi£. The power thus wielded
was based on the assumption that
in nost districts and States the
la be leaders controlled enough
vote to elect or defeat, and that,
wltl few exceptions, once a candi
dae got on their black list his
pu>lic career was over.
rhis was the theory the CIO
pppaganda constantly proclaimed,
aid it was very widely apeepted
anong politicians until tne 1946
auctions. In those, many Republi
On congressional candidates and
Sveral Republican Governors were
aected notwithstanding solid labor
lader opposition. One of the Re
jjblican Governors was Thomas E.
Jewev. For the first time it was
poven that the labor bosses could
jot deliver their rank and file with
rivthing like the solidity claimed,
the net result was the enactment
( the Taft-Hartley law despite the
truman veto. Almost as many
(emocrats as Republicans voted
r it.
In their frantic opposition to this
|11 and their subsequent political
jrategy the labor bosses did not
flow intelligence. The extraordi
lary violence of their misrepresen
Jitions was a mistake. The vitupera
|on and invective in which they
jidulged became ridiculous. Their
hreat to “drive out'of public life”
ijvery member of Congress who
jvoted for the bill strengthened
fcmblic sentiment against them*
CTheir campaign of disparagement
igainst Mr. Truman, plus their ef
orts to do him out of the nomina
ion at Philadelphia, was as dirty
s it was futile. It also stamped
hem as ungrateful to their friends.
Risk Damaging Blow.
Now they find themselves in a
ituation where they risk a really
lamaging blow. For one thing, they
lave been compelled to get behind
Truman, whom they have been
[enouncing, whom they dislike and
i-hom they tried to ditch. For an
ther, their forces—particularly the
'TO—have been split by the Wal
ace candidacy. Some of the strong
;t of the CIO unions are support
ig that muddled and bespattered
] idividual. For another, 96 per cent
I r the members of Congress who
i nted for the Taft-Hartley bill and
Jho were to be “driven out of
liblic life” have been renominated,
Ind most of them will be re-elected,
for another, their demand for the
lrpeal of the Taft-Hartley Act <in
which Mr. Truman joins) is silly.
J Quite obviously, even if Mr. Tru
Jnan should be elected, it would not
/be repealed. After a year's trial It
/quite obviously is a satisfactory law.,
I It has worked no hardship on labor s
rank and file. Every poll taken
shows a majority of the general
public favorable. Laborers are more
fully employed, better paid and
better satisfied than before its
enactment. The answer to the charge
that it is a “slave law” is: "Where
are Ihe slaves?” As an elected
President. Mr. Truman could not
get, a majority of his own party to
vote for repeal. Of course, if he
is not elected, the labor leader posi
tion will be most unpleasant.
They would then have fully dem
onstrated their political impotency.
They would have in the White
House a President with no reason
for friendliness who had twice
proven their inability to hurt him.
Thev would have a Congress fully
aware of the fraudulent nature of
their political claims and which
thev could no longer bully. They
would have lost their preferred
position jn the White House, which
has been the most valuable asset
and which' they never should have
had. Perhaps, worst of all for them,
they would have been showm up to
the great mass of union members
as untrustworthy leaders—a rather
dumb set of fourflushers.

This Changing World
France Must Face Immediate Dangers
Of an Election to Become Stable
By Constantine Brown
Serious doubts are entertained
among Washington observers as to
the ability of any French leader to
organize a stable and lasting gov
ernmeni as long
. as the present
I unrepresentative
National Assem
bly exists.
The travesty
of the past two
months, with
Robert Schu
man giving way
to the one
month govern
ment of Andre
Marie and then
returning with
a makeshift
government
which lasted
Constantine Brown.
only t>4 nours, cannot go on lnaen
nitely.
A comparative unknown in French
politics—Henri Queuille—now is en
deavoring to form a new govern
ment to meet the challenge of infla
tion in France and to save French
finances. Whether he can remain
long even if he succeeds is highly
problematical. When he falls the
old question of how to maintain a
stable government will arise again.
Auriol Avoids Vote Call.
President Vincent Auriol has
striven, wilh an eagerness which is
hardly well advised, to avoid calling
! new elections, in which it has been
feared either the Communists or
the extreme rightist De Gaulle
party would score a smashing vic
tory, thus turning France away
from that middle-of-the-road gov
ernment to which she has adhered
since liberation. |
While the middle-of-the-road par
ties—comprising the much-adver
tised Third Force—desire desper
ately to avoid new elections, they
cannot bring themselves to a suf
ficient degree of reconciliation to
maintain any government in office
for long.
While the Socialists, anxiously
campaign for labor’s support and
demand payment of the $8.33 cost
of living bonus—still in doubt de
spite Mr. Schuman's decision to
grant it—the other center or right
of-center parties continue to op
pose it and demand wage stabiliza
tion as the basis for halting infla
tion.
Some of the issues which keep
the French parties apart are so
fundamental that they cannot be
resolved on the plane of political
compromise and negotiation, but
must be settled by expression of the
French electorate. This chance for
expression has been denied by
various devices, chief of them being
cabinet resignations without benefit
of a no-confidence vote in the As
sembly.
A point will be reached where no
government will be able to stand if
it undertakes to solve the inflation
problem, for in so doing it will
alienate one or the Other of the
parties which—even if they are
small—hold the balance of power in
maintaining a coalition. That means
either complete inaction against in
flation or a decision by the As
sembly to dissolve itself and order
the now-over-due elections.
Election Means Showdown.
Whatever the result of new elec
tions, certainly the new Assembly
would be representative of present
feelings among the French people,
and that is the essence of democ
racy. There is plenty of reason to
believe that Communist voting power
has declined considerably since the
present Parliament was elected.
Local elections have given evidence
of a marked trend toward Gen.
Charles de Gaulle and his sup
porters, in spite of the vagueness of
their pronounced policies. This
rightward tendency is what puts
fear into the hearts of some of the
center and left-of-center politicians.
As far as the Communist danger
is concerned the moment is aus
picious for reducing it even further,
for Marshall Plan aid to France is
flowing and the French know that
that flow would stop if Communists
are taken into the government.
The holding of an election does,
of course, carry certain perils of
disorder and violence, for it means
a showdown in France and the
Communists may be expected to
use all the tactics in which they
specialize to swing the vote their
way. However, the immediate
dangers will have to be faced in
order to give France anything like
a stable government in the difficult
months and years ahead.
On the Other Hand
Showmanship as Well as Strategy
Revealed in Republican Campaign
*By Lowell Mellett
' During the 1932 Democratic con
vention in Chicago the late Huey
Long appeared on the platform to
urge the seating of his Louisiana
delegation. He
met with a hos-,
tile reception
At one point,
after waiting for
the noise to sub
side, he blandly
remarked—i n t o
the microphone
—"Don't cheer,
my friends. It
comes out of my
radio time.”
Afterward.
Senator Wheeler
laughingly took
’him to task for
this, saying.
Low'll Mell'tt.
"You darn fool, you Knew tney
weren't cheering you!”
"Sure,” said the Kingfish, "but
the people listening to the radio
down in Louisiana didn't.”
Stassen Crowd ‘Warned.”
This incident is recalled by news
paper accounts of the Stassen
speech in Detroit, a speech in which
the excandidate belittled the 125,
000 turn-out for the President on
the preceding day by asserting that
union members had taken part in
the demonstration to escape a $3
fine. If this sounded odd, coming
from the president of Pennsylvania
University, it was made understand
able by further newspaper reports
which estimated the Stassen audi
'ence at 3.000 in a hall that holds
1 4,500.
But that wasn’t all. Those of us
who listened to the radio that night
were greatly impressed by the en
thusiasm of the audience, regard
less of its size, concerning which we
knew nothing. The spontaneous
outburst of applause when Mr. Stas
sen rose to speak, the quick re
sponse each time he paused after
making a point, the obvious fact
that the crowd was with him from
beginning to end. Then next morn
ing we read this paragraph in an
AD dispatch:
“Unlike the crowd that listened
to Mr. Truman's talk here yesterday«
spectators were coached in applaud
ing before Stassen took the air
for his national broadcast. Walter
Tibblas, radio man for the Republi
can National Committee, 'warmed
ud' the crowd which failed to fill the
4.500-seat hall.
Much is being written these days
concerning the strategy planned for
the IJewey campaign, but it now
appears that equal thought is being
given to showmanship. Having a
former rival make the reply to the
President, rather than the candidate
himself, in Gov. Dewey’s own native
State, was strategy. The candidate
i naturally doesn’t want to take on
an open' battle with organized labor
if it can be avoided. Since, how
ever, it was necessary to have some
body challenge the President, why
not use Mr. Stassen—ready and will
ing and with nothing to lose?
Strategy also dictated the nature
of the speech, making it an attack
from start to finish, not a defense.
That is always good campaign
strategy, but in this instance it was
essential, having in mind the labor
record of the Republican Congress.
More Strategy to Unfold.
Which brings up the keenest stra
tegic thinking of all, the use of an
advocate who had no connection
with the Congress and so could
speak freely.
More of the strategy will unfold
as the shrewd Dewey campaign pro
gresses and, no doubt, more of the
campaign managers’ showmanship,
but it is unlikely that anything
better will be revealed than was
shown in that Detroit performance.
This can be said unless hints of
the grand over-all Dewey strategy
prove to be correct. The story is
that the Republican nominee plans
virtually to ignore the man whose
job he is seeking, just as he will
ignore the record of the Republican
Congress. His own speeches will be
few and they will all be pitched on
a “high plane,” as the utterances of
one already chosen to administer
the affairs of the Nation in a diffi
cult time and who, therefore, has
his mind on the solemn duties he
is about to accept, not on the petty
wrangling of . a political contest.
It might work pretty well. The
dignity of his office would prevent
the President from demanding every
day, as Senator,Taft and Mr. Stas
sen did, that Gov. Dewey come out
and fight.
Concordia Church Reopens
On April 15 the sanctuary of Con
cordia Lutheran Evangelical Church
was closed for renovation. Since
then, the congregation has been
worshiping in its Fellowship Hall. A
new ceiling was put into the sanc
tuary and the roof was repaired.
The sanctuary was rewired and new
lighting fixtures were installed. A
new carpet was laid on the altar
platform and the entire interior was
redecorated. The re-opening service
will be held at 11 a.m. tomorrow.
The Rev. G. Siegenthaler, presi
dent of the Potomac Synod of the
Evangelical and Reformed Church,
will bring the message. In con
nection with this service 11 memo
rial gifts will be dedicated by the
pastor, the Rev. Charles Enders.
