Administration Is Assailed By Willkie Action In Roilroad Dispute Is Cited Tacoma. Wash., Feb. 12—(VP)— Wendell Willkie claims that the present administration has forfeited Its right to moral leadership. Willkie (barges that it has loot the sense of importance of unity which has saved us in previous national crises. •He told a Republican Lincoln flay observance at Tacoma last night that only in the Republican party can the nation reforgo a feelig of national unity strong enough to stand the tests that lie ahead of us. The former G. O. P. presldenial candidate accused the adrninis’raton ut promoting disunity. He cited as an example the recent railroad strike call which, he said, was brought on by what he termed the President's equivocal answen, broken promkea and delaying tactics. He said the administration has created an atmosphere of hostility Ix-cween groups. No better illustration could be found, he declared, than the history of the recently threatened railroad strike. Willie said. *'l am not condoning the call of a railroad strike In wat*. But It is only fair to point out that there would probaMy never have been a r.rlke call if the President had not adopted his usual methods of handling such a matter. We need a new leader A leader who does not hold in his mind bitter or triumphant memories of past conflicts.” He said Lincoln's supreme achievement was that he found the words and the ideas with which to arouse people's minds to the necessity for unity.
