His-ultimatum that the Army would run the railroads . if necessary, plus his stongly-worded request for legislation to end strikes against the government, broke a deadlock that had seemed almost hopeless. 1

He and his administration had been widely criticized for

failure to forestall the- rail and coal strikes which jointly threatened to strangle the nation economically. He took cog

nizance of that criticism, explaining that he had sought to

prevent a crisis without the use of drastic legislation. f

Maybe he should have taken such' personal, vigorous

: action soonerBut , it .is noteworthy that, in advocating; dras

tic measures which, he had previously sought to avoid, he

insists that the riffhts of labor must not be impaired.

: .; He- asked Congress for a sharp-shooter's rifle, not for a

blunterbuss. . .

Its target will be those arrogant union leaders few in

number and easily identified who persist in defying the

government and ignoring the public well are. ' . ;

Its use-will, be limited to six months, and no advantage is to be taken of it by private employers who might seek to curtail labor's rights. .vv : "We are dealing SvYth a handful of men who are striking against their own government and against every one of their eiwlizens . ....The general right of workers to strike againsl private employers must be preserved." We like that distinction, since it clearly stresses the need for maintaining an equitable balance between capital and labor. We like also his request for a joint congressional committee to study deliberately and thoroughly "permanent long-range legislation which will reduce the number of : occasions where that ultimate remedy has to be adopted." ' In declaring to Congress that "the whole subject of labor relations should be studied afresh," President Truman by inference advises against such legislation as the House's ' Case bill.antLSenator Byrd's substitute- proposal. Legislation , , enacted hastily and in anger can hold little hope for permanent benefits. But the course Mr. Truman has advocated comparable to the Spirit in which we tackled and solved ma- . jor wartime problems holds much promise. ; In advocating this course, the president is strengthening the influence of those who have been subjected to terrific :. abuse because they insisted that Congress exercise care and : caution in considering labor legislation. A crisis has ended. Others of equal seriousness can be forestalled if Congress gets at the basis of labor-caDital

conflict, some of which have their origin in inflationary

trenas ana in tne eiiort to kick price controls overboard.
