The fact that this drive is along many fronts and .t without the noise of verbal "big guns’ does not lessen its signifi cance And “behind the scenes'' rs much feeling as legislative generals map plans, form their lines, and prepare for the “zero hour” of vot ing on measures that affect all our citizens The situation In Congress Is all the more acute because Congres sional procedure Is naturally af fected by the acta of the legislative and judicial branches of the Gov ernment. What will be the final Government policy with regard to the sit-down strikers that may cause concern in the South? What changes, if any. will be made In the President* court plan before it WHAT IS TAKING PLACE BY * d * What will the Supreme Court do with regard to the Labor Relation* Act. which is certain to influence action on (he court plan* Not even the most optimistic member of Congress will attempt to answer these questions today And they must be answered before the pres ort uncertainty in Congress gives way to certainty--that is before the objective of the “big drive" is clear. A.s a result memhey of Congress are unable to give satisfactory an swers to many questions raised by ~onstituent* Thev are unable to ’'S/arrl a guo'S as to wt»6t will be done about this or thqt. They find 1 difficult td term'their own final dec sion* The reason Is simple It is be cause factors outside of Congress nr# perhaps more than ever before having a strong effect on legisla tion. In other words, conditions that are acute today may become less serious tomorrow and make drastic legislation unnecessary However, they may become more 'erinus and require swift move ment in the "big drive Whatever else may be said, it can be stated that the President is keenly alive to the situation and his record for action clearly indi cates that he will be ready to move at a moment's notice. The tact that all his plans have not been dis closed does not minimize their sweeping character. It has been amply demonstrated that our peo ple by and large have confidence in the President’* recommenda tions and that the Congress, in the final analysis. wlU be in accord with his more important policies This will be more in evidence dur ing the weeks ahead. Our people should not be alarm ed by the evidences of the present uncertainty In the legislative branch of the Government. It is in reality a most hopeful sign. It in dicates that members of Congress arc studying and weighing the var ious proposals It is a sign that members have the courage of their own convictions as to what is best for the country. And it is a re freshing indication that this is not a "rubber stamp" Congress. With it all i* f*w evidence that ‘he day of temporary expedients to meet emergencies jig over The mere fact that the- Congres is mov ing slowly toward final objectives ‘s really a hopefb* sign—a sign that the experience of the last de cade and all the lessons learned are not being forgotten- That in itaelf, hould allay many fears with re gard to Federal activities in the future.
