FRIDAY,, APRIL 18, 1947
TIME TO GET TOUGH
. The srreat American public it would seem will
have to do somethins:. It is beginning to look as if the
GAP will find it necessary to get tough unless it
wants men like John L. Lewis and other labor leaders
to continue in the roles of dictators in a land that is
presumed to guarantee personal freedom.
^ght now the telephone strike irks us. We are
not going to argue as to the merits or the demerits of
the demands of the workers. We have found these
workers a faithful lot under ordinary conditions. Per
haps they are justified in their demands and then
again it may be that their demands are excessive.
The point we want to emphasize is that it isn’t
the workers and it isn’t the bosses that suffers. It's
the public.
We believe ihat^this country needs leaders who
can cope with a situation like this. We believe we need
a congress that has sufficient courage to provide leg
islation that will stop these strikes. In other words,
we have reached that stage where we should get
tough.
NO 81RI HE NEVER STRIKES
While strikes seem to have become a habit in this
country you’ll notice that the mailmen never strike.
If those lads who carry the mail ever get the idea of
joining in this present parade, we hope it will be at
the first of the month when statements are sent out
