" 3 m There's on their U the sea American labor czar, still head of the powerful United Mine Workers union but otherwise pretty much of a lone wolf, is trying to unite the farmers and miners in one big union, controlling all that rests beneath the earth and all that blooms above it. A sort of marriage of the pick-ax- e and the milk pail. Both honorable emblems but never seen in the same shield before.

Some of them are worried enough to in: corporate as the "Free Farmers, Inc." and subscribe money to "fight to the end" against Mr. Lewis' efforts. A number of the leading farm organizations thought enough of the matter to hold a series of meetings to discuss it in Washington and to prepare to testify before a congressional committee on the matter.

At District 50 they merely say the movement is a great success: that 33 district leaders representing 10 states who met here in Washington to plan their intensive campaign are enthusiastic.

But most of them have farm backgrounds themselves and I imagine they don't feel very differently from other farmers who are not directly sfTected. The ones who look on the thing as a theory rather than a fact and it still is a theory at this writing. And these farmers simply say: well farmers and workers just never seem to be able to work together. They look at things differently. And this applies to farm help as well as farm owners.

Broadway Salt tak City The one man whom I talked to who was really steamed up about Mr. Lewis' new venture and actually felt that the movement he was starting was dangerous had been a farmer, too. He may be right. He said to me: "Farmers don't like this thing but there are some discontented farmers who will sign anything if they are mad. They feel that the state or the federal government is against them. Pushing down prices. And if this man Lewis could get them to sign a union card, promising them higher prices, and then force them to deal only with help that had signed up and ship their milk only with truckers who had signed up, then all the rest of the milk would be 'hot milk' and it would be destroyed. And if Lewis got control of the CIO again and got a few rich people that thought they would get a break out of the combination, they might push him for election in 1942. Remember the CIO contributed $500,000 to the Democratic campaign fund in 1936." He was worried. Somehow I am not. I am not a farmer but I know that nobody who works close to the ground feels he has to join up and borrow help from an organization. He is a lone fighter. He is independent The only union that he believes in is the union of hard work and the of nature if she's willing. If she isn't spit on your hands and try again. I think Mr. Lewis is hollering down the wrong rain barrel. The Board of Economic Warfare is on the warpath at last. About a year ago I wrote in this column about economic warfare. I said it was a very hush-hus- h proposition but plans of importance were under way. It was being handled then by the department of commerce. Later a Board of Economic Warfare was formed. Vice President Wallace was put at its head. That is about all most people heard about it until Rep. Martin Dies charged that a number of communists and one nudist worked for it. The "nudist" proved to be a solemn economist who once wrote a book on that intriguing subject which a high court said was scientific and unobjectionable even if the pictures were a little bit Police Gazettish. Then suddenly came a sweeping order which turned over to these gentlemen, who had been working without any publicity, complete power over raw materials. Just preceding this order Secretary Jesse Jones of the department of commerce who had a great deal to do with raw materials was questioned sharply in congress as to just what his progress had been. The gist of the order was that the Board of Economic Warfare had the complete say as to what raw materials were acquired by this country, how they were to be acquired and what essential materials, raw or otherwise (excluding guns, munitions and planes) went out of the country. The policy of the acquisition of raw materials is not, however, based entirely on what we need. It Is partly based on what the Axis powers need. And so these materials will be bought, begged or seized whenever and wherever necessary, to keep them out of enemy hands. "For want of a nail the shoe was lost for want of a shoe the horse was lost, for want of a horse " well, you know what happened. For want of oil, or magnesium or aluminum, or rubber, the most powerful armies can fail. And so we have at last consolidated under one head, in one compact body, the effort which is Just as Important as the effort of men and guns and planes and ships.
