It discloses just how far we have travelled If as a result Mr Hurley's part of them have not surrendered found of va'ue in the treatment of amiable and less severe plan for diminishing strikes and lockouts. Yec Philip Murray employed the harshest language in denouncing the President and the program. He declared that "the design cf the specific legislative program" which Mr. Truman proposes is "to weaken ana ultimately destroy labor union organizations." He charged the Administration with "abject, cowardice'' and with "rancor" toward labor. He asserted that it Jiad "completely ignored human rights." Once upon a time another CIO leader made a somewhat similar attack on another President.

He lost, while Mr. Roosevelt gisined, prestige. History will probably repeat itself in the present incident.
