Especially are they harping on relations between management and labor and chargj ing that this country can not surI vlv, unless a complete < hange is ! demanded. To get the true picture I on Hh- Hittiatinn today, let's refer 1 to a recent statement of Thomas It Hutson. Indiana i-ominissluncr ;of ’abor. Mi Hutson as Id: "The cases befon the labor dlvisi ion dropped from 2D hi October to i 32 in January December had reached a new low with only 13 cases coming to th)- attention of the department. With the declaration of war even serious arguments were avoided. Dufeua strikes appear to lie in total eclipse while strikes in non-defeuse industries total tour tor the month of January. These figures seem to bear out recent statements that capital and labor are sincere in rendering an aii-out service to the country In time of stress. Une nondefense strike involving more than MO pt i won a was settled during the month at a conference in the governor's office. “In the month of January. Ik of 22 <uses were settled In a manner satislactory to both aides. This Is a high average of Mttiemeuts and it would appear that all elements, including the conciliation service, must have been imbued with the spirit of the times, which means peace in industry.” 0 a Trade la a Good Town - Decatur

Here »n the Indian leaders who hold the answer to the British self-government offer presented to the Indian people by «ir Stafford Cripps, special emissary now conferring with these leaders in New Delhi, the capital city. While a majority of the AU-India Congress party's working committee, representing the dominant Hindu faction, to reported ready to reject Britain's offer because it does not giro India enough control over her war efforts. Jawaharlal Nehru, leader of the Congress party, was reported to have thrown his support to the British proposals offering India complete independence and dominion stetus after the war. At the same time, it was reported Mohandas K. Gandhi, spiritual leader of the All-Indla Congress, remained opposed to the plan because it would compel Indian cooperation in the war, contrary to his beliefs. The Moslem League, representing an 8b,000,000 Mohammedan minority in Indian jmtltics and headed by Mohammed AU Jlnnah, favors the plan and asks only assurance that it would have an even share of membership on the prospective Indian executive council.
