ALL THE TIME we have been pussy
footing with Russia, there has been nothing
but failure in our attempts to gain their help
in establishing peace.
Secretary of State Marshall has laid a
straightforward program in the laps of Bri
tain, France and Russia. Molotov turned
down London and Paris. That was his way
of thumbing his nose at the government of
the United States.
Isn't it time for the United States to tell
the Communists that we are through with
them ? If wë have a job to do in Europe that
is still unfinished, we can trust Marshall's
judgment and work with governments of the
. World that will cooperate with us, and at the
same time, tell Russia and all of the wild and
woolly nations to get out of the way.
Russia is always claiming a right to the
possèssion of the atomic bomb. America
isn't fool enough to trust a nation that has
never proved its friendship for us.
UNDER THE PRESENT law the Secre
tary of State is next in line to the President,
inasmuch as there is no Vice President.
pending proposal if enacted into law by Con
gress, would make the Speaker of the House
first in line of succession, to be followed by
the Senate President Pro Tern. If this law
passed, the Secretary of State would not
first in line because he would come after the
House and Senate successors.
Senator Wiley of Wisconsin suggests
new addition to the list of successors. He ex
plained that if an atomic bomb was dropped
on Washington, it would wipe out all of the
Cabinet officers and Members of Congress;
therefore, he suggests that top officials in the
Army and Navy should be added to the list.
The theory is that this would insure a con
tinuance of the Federal Government without
any delay.
THE U. S. SENATE and House accept
President Truman's statement that he will
use his best non-partisan judgment in mak-|
ing nominations for Labor Board members
and other officials. That being so, the new
Labor Law should get off on a good start.
It seems perfectly clear that. President!
Truman will be renominated. Neither he or s
the Republican candidate to be nominated |
will have the labor vote "in his vest Docket." I

Heniy Wallace IS the lone crooner who ls
willing to restore the New Dem policies.
In the short time since the new Labor
aw was definitely finished by Congress,
thpvp nnnpars fn havp been a coolinff-off
tnere appears 10 nave oeen a toonrg oi
period.
While there had been a great deal of Wild
guessing about what John L. Lewis and his
coal miners were going to do about it the
fact remains that there are many definite re
strictions placed upon the unions, which they
are not anxious to challenge. The result was
an agreement without a prolonged strike.
There seems to be no reason to believe
the current gossip in Washington that Labor
leaders will challenge the Labor Law in
Courts, from now until the 1948 election, on
the theory that they would gain control of
Congress.
Public opinion has always supported the
philosophy that wage earners should get good
wages, and that employers should not hesi
täte to turn over a reasonable share of their
profits to their employees,
No candidate for President will go far
by attacking the new Labor Law.
Courts have already chastised John L
Lewis and his coal miners for their misde
meanors and Lewis and Co. are not going to
forget in a hurry. Under the new Labor Law,
collective bargaining will be on stronger foot
ing than it ever has been before. Union se-i
curity will be protected. Riots, illegal strikes
and boycotts are now against the law. Com-1
mumsts are black-listed. Political bosses are,
not going to throw Union money into political
campaigns as they did to help elect Roosevelt.
Under the new program, the National La
bor Relations Board will be headed by five',
members instead of three, and it seems cer
tain that when President Truman submits his
nominations and they are approved by the
Senate, that it will be a competent board to
handle complaints of jurisdictional strikes,
court proceedings and different types of La
bor Union elections
This law will either work or it won t work
It should prove its usefulness before the 1948
election That means the Labor vote will not
be a political football for either the Repub
hcan or Democratic parties. Besides that,
Henry Wallace hasn't a "fiddlers chance" to
lead the working people of this country

IN THE LATE 1890's a young bicycle re
pairman tinkered after hours with a horse
less carriage. It was a screwball idea—a
smoky, sputtery contraption that couldn't
work, everyone said.
But a few of his friends figured maybe
the thing coul.d work—and if it did, a lot of
them could be sold and money could be made.
So they took a chance and loaned the young
tinkerer a few dollars to get going. And that
was beginning a huge industry—the
automobile industry—which today gives em
Payment to some seven million workers.
America was buiJt that way _ by men
willing to take a chance—willing to invest
their savings—a thousand dollars or ten
thousand dollars or more—in some new pro

Because of huge taxes, the odds are stacked
against the investors in new products. And
without new investment—continuous invest

For when investment drops, production
drops. When production drops, prices go up,
wages go down, and jobs fly out the window,

for killing so many human beings, the Press

acres with DDT insecticide. The prospects
are that 60 million worth of timber will be
saved in the Idaho Panhandle from the de

the Nation many millions of dollars in stand
