The man responsible for the strike is Harry Bridges, an Australian alien. Were it not for the activities of this one individual, there would have been no strike. This is not the claim of hysterical alien-baiters. It is the sound judgment of the’ striking longshoremen themselves; they do not hesitate to tell the man who interviews them that Bridges is wholly and_solely. responsible for the present shipping tie-up. Those who admire and willingly follow him, and many of them do, look upon him as a veritable god, whose authority and leadership they would not think of questioning. The issue in the present strike is not wages, hours, or working conditions. Both sides are willing to arbitrate differences on these scores. The question on which they are deadlocked is the matter of control of the “hiring halls.” In other words, control of American shipping. For, as both the shipowners and Bridges admit, whoever controls the hiring hails is’a virtual czar over al! maritime activities. Labor may be right in demanding control of the hiring halls. Perhaps, the management of the shipping lines should be in the hands of the men who work, rather than the owners. In any case, we shall not discuss that point. What we shall discuss is whether American shipping should be controlled by a subject of the British Empire»sEven if we grant that American labor should control American industry, it does not follow that alien labor leaders should control either American labor or American enterprise. The proposition that an alien should be dictator over American shipping lines is so outrageously repugnant to patjotic citizens that it seems strange that a strike to enforce it on our people should be tolerated by either public opinion or the government. The peace of America depends upon our independence, our denial to foreigners of the right to control our destinies. Certainly;it is a legitimate and necessary element of any sound neutrality policy for Congress to prohibit foreigners on our shores from maneuvering control of American industries. We all know what Congress would do if a foreign capitalist should settle here and usurp contro] of munitions factories. Yet, a misdirection of our ships at sea can embroil us in war much faster than can any activity of makers of war materials. If Bridges should win this strike, and become dictator over American shipping, it would be possible for him to create conditions on the high seas which would involve us in foreign wars. Suppose, for instance, that? England should bs engaged in a war with another foreign power, then the man who controls American shipping could involve us on the side of the British Empire. And Bridges is a British subject. thour Kodak finishing serJ itt 107 Mill Si. a Grass Valley DrorecrapHer vice. CUSTOM MILL READY TO ACCEPT ORE fa The studio that satisfies.
