Labor, political organ of the
standard associated rail labor bro
therhoods and unions, prints conspic-
uously in its current issue the advice
of Sen. Norris, progressive leader,
that progressives of the republican
and democratic sort should center
their efforts this year on the election
of their own, people to the senate and
house. While it carries no editorial
declaration as to the presidential con-
test an article by its editor heaps rid
icule on the "full dinner pail slogan
of Republican Chairman Work and
points out that the Republican leaders
concede that Massachusetts, Rhode
Island Connecticut, New York, New
Jersey, Delaware and Maryland are
doubtful" territory. On the other
hand it recites that Sen. Brookhart,
influenced by Dante Pierce, publisher
of Iowa farm papers is campaigning
for Hoover. Norris and LaFollette
alone have definitely denounced the
republican platform. Blaine of Wis
consin has spoken well of Smith.
Hoover is making overatures to
rail labor. One of his closest lieu
tenants is Claudius Huston o Chat
tanooga, who last year took charge
of the Locomotive Engineers finan-
cial commitments. The most that
Hoover can hope is that the brother
hoods and unions of the rail group
will refrain from endorsing any presl-
dental candidate. Smith hopes to
have them line up for himself, al
though he will not favor public own
ership of anything that may earn a
profit.
Washington -(FP)-Militarist and
pacifist circles in the capital are agog
over the quiet lecture administered
to Quaker Herbert Hoover on his
second Sunday visit to the Friends
Meeting House after he became q
presidential nominee. Hoover had in
spired an interview that appeared in
the New York World on Sunday morn
ing, denying that he was working
pacifist, and explaining that his
uncles fought in the civil war and his
father was barred from the army be-
cause he was too young.
Friend Daniel Bachelor, from the
platform of the Quaker meeting, urg-
ed all Friends to "put religion into
practical issues" Pacifism, he ar.
gued, has become practical politics.
