One danger of any great un- dertaking is that interested men may become so immersed, in it, so involved in its actions and its success that they may confuse what jsr right with Iwhat they wish might bappen. That jr one o! the grave dan- gers inherent in such an ac- tivity as that of organizing la- bor. In the enthusiasmn for a cause there is a danger of overlooking Lincoln's impres'-_ sive dictum, that the mere weight of numbers entitled n individual or organization Io reprers the recognized rights of individuals. An instance that makes this point clear happened recently i in Indiana, where the officiais of United Automobile Workers called a strike in the several plants of the Perfect Circle Corporation centred on New- castle, Indiana. Many employ- ees refused to strike and re- quested an election to decide wbether the U.A.W. did fairly represent the wishes of the workers. The union cballenged SHOULDER ROAST MINCED BEEF Extra Lean the Isffue of an election and d.td its best to enforce the strike derpite these protests. Violence flamed Up so alarm- ingly with mobs attacking non- striking workers and intixnidat- ing the communities, that 'the governor of the state invoked martial law and called in the militia to maintain order. There was much opposition to this ac- tion, union officials claiming that the governor was just protecting "«property" while over-riding the will of the ma- jority of the employees. In other words they argued that the rights of people were being suppressed at the bayonet point. It would have been a very sobering challenge had it been proved true. However, when the smoke~ bad cleared, order bad been' restored and the soldiers with- drawn, the National Labor Re- lations Board did hold a free and open election, as the sup- posed minority had requested, in three of the four plants of the company. Ninety-five per cent of the eligible employees turned out to vote. In each plant the voters rejected the U.A.W. and in the main plant of the company the opposition stood at two to one. It appears then that whzDn there was an opportunity to choose freely the will of th-ý supposed minority actually showed itself to be the will of the majority. That was pro- bably what Lincoln meant when be justified the rebel- lion of a minority against any effort to limit its vital rights. Our grand business is, flot Io see what lies dimly at a dis- tance, but to do what lies close- ly at hand.-Thomas Carlyle. To (UT YOUR FOOD BILLS MORE!
