If this industrial unionization program succeeds, 1t may be that this present November election will be the last one in which organized labor--plus the organized small far mer, tenant. re-cropper. and farm laborer--does not have it's own full ticket and party.
 Already this future party idea is being given form and substance in some localities under the rather vague name of Farmer Labor par ty.
