When Junior starts to shave his fond parents have got to realize that the boy is wel lon his way to manhood. Similarly with a labor movement, no matter how gradual its growth and transformation, certain unmistakable signs appear from time to time which throw its transitions into sharp re- lief. One such sign of the times, so far as labor is concerned is the important announcement just made by John L. Lewis on behalf of Labor's Non-Par- tisan League. The full significance of this step has not yet impressed itself on the country as a whole. Yet it is as preg- nant with possibilities in its way as | was the first announcement of the THE UNION PRESS-COURIER. nen poses which they naturally desire to achieve. ‘ But when a measure of success is achieved in this primary task, and sol- id, permanent functioning unions are established ,labor’s growth and devel- | opment does not stop. | When Junior has reached his full stature, he starts filling out. The new powers of manhood develop within him, and soon he will be playing a man's part in the world of affairs. The recent CIO convention showed | that solid, permanent organization has | now been estblished in many previous- i ly unorganized industries. There are | still plenty of fields in which all at- | tention must be devoted to union re- cruiting. But wherever a permanent | basis of organization has been laid, a | second stage of development has be- | gun. This second stage includes the con- solidation of union strength through | Industrial Union Councils, to mobilize health. for general social legislation, and for reviving our whole national economy. The statement marks the launching of a great new movement on the part of labor. Through it, labor's union strength will be mobilized on the po- litical field as never before. Its voice will be heard, and its powers will be felt, in the nomination and election of candidates all the way down from the President down to the smallest indus- trial precinct. This new movement should bring rejoicing to all true liberals and to all groups, such as the farmers which do not have their fair share of the benefits which our civilization makes possible.

Lewis’ League statement signalizes labor's new sense of direction. It in- dicates some of the uses which labor will make in the next two years of the new powers which have come to it through union organization.

In preparation for the 1940 presiden- tial elections, the League will work within the framework of the Demo- cratic party to select delegates to the party’s national convention. These del- egates will work for the nomination of progressive candidates for president and vice president. Finally, Lewis put forward on be- half of the officers of the League, a program of legislative principles, on which the League convention will be asked to make its decision.
