De Gaulle's Forthright Bid For Power In
France Is Termed 'Political Bombshell'
BY I>e WITT MacKKNTlE
AP Foreign Affairs Analyst
This column really didn’t epect to
get such quick and emphatic con
Urination of the prediction that
Oeneral Charles De Gaulle was a-!
bout ready to come out for the poll
tical leadership of France—and that
confirmation by tisf general himself,
Our forecast was made In con
nection with a speech De Gaulle
made Sunday at Strasbourg. Al
most cotncidently with the publlca-|
Uon of the article he delivered an
other speech at
Strasbourg— this
one a humdinger
which was an out-, ■mm?
right appeal to Sh

themselves under
his leadership.
He also mad
statements tend DEWITT MACKENZIE
ing to confirm our suggestion that
he appeared to have subscribed to
President Truman's policy of aiding
countries whose independence Is
threatened.
De Gaulle’s forthright bid for re
turn to power will be a political
bombshell in Paris. The
government is doing a
tight-rope act between
and other leftists, on the one
and the middle-of-the-road
Republican movement and rtght
ists, on the other.
it would take a mighty light Wind
to unset balance, because the
strength between left and right at
the polls Is close to fifty-fifty,
For this reason government leader*

rising spirits In hand and muzzle
him from making political speeches,
indeed, on March 30, after the gen

tier Ramadler went to the extreme,
traveling a considerable distance
to De Oaulle’s country home, to ask
the latter not to talk politics in any
future official commemorative
speeches.
Ramadier explained that if the
general mixed politics with memo
rial rites, the government risked
"seeming to support such political
comments.”

In Sunday’s speech De Gaulle

This Telephone Strike , »
Doesn’t Make Sense
/
We deeply regret the inconvenience being caused you by the
telephone strike, and we appreciate the fine spirit of cooper
ation you have shown in making only emergency calls. The
Company did Everything it could to avert a strike. We could
see no excuse for the strike before it occurred, and we can
see none now.
The demands made by the Union are exorbitant.
They would increase the cost of providing tele
phone service by $69,000,000 a year. This would
make our payroll alone over $2 million more than
the total of all the money we took in last> year.
In terms of the average telephone bill, it would
amount to an increase of about $3.30 per month
for each of our customers.
Telephone employees get good wages, which
have been increased by 75% since January, 1941
These wages compare favorably with those paid
by other businesses in the community for work
requiring similar skills. Our employees have
steady work, good working conditions, holidays
with pay, vacations with pay (one, two, or three
weeks, depending on length of service), sickness
and death benefits and pensions, with full cost
paid by the Company.
The Union’s demands, therefore,
mean either that the Union
(A) does not agree that the wages of its
members are good—whi^h we have
offered to settle by arbitration, OR
(B) it wants its members to be in a highly
preferred position in the community
in relation to other workers perform
ing jobs requiring similar skill and
equivalent training. This makes no
sense to us and we think it won't
make sense to you who must pay the
bill. We don't believe telephone cus
tomers will willingly accept telephone
service rates based upon employees'
wage rates far above the level of
wages whch they themselves pay or
receive.

Southern Bell Wages Should
Be Settled in the South
The Union has also demanded that wages and
certain other bargaining matters for Southern
Bell employees be settled on a national, rather
than on a regional basis. We believe—and we
^ think you will agree—that the wages of Southern
Bell employees, paid for by Southern Belt* cus
tomers, should be settled by considering condi
tions prevailing in the South. 80'' of Southern
Bell' s revenues ’are from business handled within
e^ch of the nine states in which we operate. Tele
phone employees work and live in their i
own com
munities ,and pay the prices which prevail there.
All rates within the state, both local and long
distance, are regulated by 6tate authorities. W< »ges
must be fixed on a local basis too if they are to
be fair alike to employees and telephone users.
t
We Offered To Arbitrate Our Wages
Careful studies which we have made show that
our wages compare favorably with those paid
other workers in the community with skills sim
ilar to telephone employees. However, to remove
any doubt and to avert a strike, we offered to
arbitrate the wage matter and to renew our con
tract with the Union until such arbitration COU f
take place. 1 his offer was rejected by the Union,
placing the responsibility for the strike squarely
where it belongs—on the shoulders of Union
leadership.
We hope the public will have no hard feel
ings toward telephone employees as a re
sult of the stirke. They are a grand group
of people, who have been misled by inex
perienced and immature leadership.
A telephone strike is bad business any way
you look at it, and this one should bring
home to Union leadership a sense of its
responsibility to the public. \
