...strike were the aggressive labor policy pursued by G.E. and the headstrong, overdetermined tactics of I.U.E. President James Carey. The last time G.E. faced a strike of comparable proportions-in 1946-it closed down its plants, but since then it has hardened its policies. Under Vice President Lemuel R. Boulware, who now serves only as a consultant, G.E. developed a broad policy known through the industry as "Boulwarism," in which the company makes an unceasing effort to sell itself to the workers. In bargaining, the company first listens to the unions' demands, then puts all that it is willing...

Vice President Lemuel R. Boulware: "Carey is unable to distinguish between bargaining and giving in. Three years ago we gave in. Not now." What strengthened G.E.'s hand was the fact that in three key G.E. locals (Lynn and Pittsfield, Mass.; Schenectady, N.Y.), representing more than a third of the union...
...must remain the basis of social order so long as evil exists to be repressed." The admiral and his men might even rerun it into a new definition of the t)ld Navy quip that had loomed so large in the long and notable service of Admiral James Lemuel Holloway. That new definition, which was also a new challenge: Do you fight the cold war the -hard way, i.e., by letting things slide into a shooting war, or the Holloway, i.e., by deploying adequate power to stop...
