letters and petitions from organized groups schooled in influencing people, particularly congressmen. Legislators - are not much ime pressed by foim letters or repetltious telegrams or posteards, but they do hearken to messages that seem sincere and spontaneous. Appeals to People If eénough members of Mr. Truman’s “most powerful pressure group” will get in toucH with their congressmen he will win his fight. Otherwise, the President's complaint will still be valid-—that his legislation will be held indefinitely in the house committee on labor and senate committee on education and labor, : The congressional situation is not promising, from Mr. Truman's view= point. The house committee held hearings before the Christmas recess, and the only support it recorded for the President's proposals came from Secretary of Labor Schwellenbach. The labor chieftains who ' condemned it were aided by Ira Mosher, president of the National Associa tion of- Manufacturers, The senate committee has scheduled a solid month of hearings after Jan. 14 before it will get’ down to the business of deciding on a report, if any.

Diin't Get Law «In. both- committees the--outlook is reported as extremely deliberate. | Mr. Truman didn't get his new law before Christmas, as he desired, and if the present program is followed | there will be nothing in time to help the present situation. Mr. Truman's proposal of statutory backing for fact-finding boards (which management dislikes) was described by him as not harmful to labor. But here is what William Green, president of the American Federation of Labor, had to say: “It. invades the right to strike,

The vicious ‘doctrine of conspiracy’ in labor disputes is, re-established. ivil damage suits’ are authorized nd encouraged, and such suits may be brought against the union, thie officers thereof. as individuals, and the individual members.” Mr. Truman says in formal language that it can't be as bad as Messrs, Green, Murray and Lewis have thundered. He reiterates his opposition to “the anti-labor bills pending in the cbngress which seek to deprive labor of the right to bargain colleetively, or which seek to deprive a union of its ultimate right to strike. That is why I am so anxious to have: on our books an effective statute which will have none of the evil effects of the some of the legislation now pending.” This ' presidential statement implied that the labor leaders are flirting with a danger of something much harder to take than the come paratively mild Truman preseription. re
