OPEN FORUM

Continued from Page A.
To divide and conquer is their
motto. They play upon every
prejudice in order to destroy the
growing unity of the people and
break up the developing democratic
front. They foster red-baiting and
sow the seeds of discord between the
American Federation of Labor and
the Committee for Industrial Or
~ganization, between labor and the
middle classes, between workers and
farmers, between jobless and en-
ployed, between Negro and white,
Catholic and Protestant, Gentle and
Jew.
The American people remember
only too we'll their misery under
the "Old Deal" and the Republicans.
They aren't fooled by the cry of
New Deal Dictatorship" They have
made substantial gains under the
New Deal and they neal to defend
them. They are determined to win
new victories, to win more democra-
cy, to win recovery in the interests
of the people.
Labor's Non-Partisan League, the
American Labor party, the Mime
sofa Farmer-Labor Association, the
Wisconsin Progressive party, the
Washington Commonwealth Fedora
ton, the New Deal supporters Of
Roosevelt in the Democratic party,
the progressives in the Republican
party-all of these are drawing
closer together, moving in the direc-
ton of a mighty democratic front of
common action to block the road
that leads to fascism and war.
The job now is to establish greater
unity. The American people must
strengthen all their economic and
political organizations and join to-
gether in one huge democratic front
now for an election victory in No
vember.
The supreme need of the hour, the
most urgent responsibility of the
Committee for Industrial Organiza-
ton, the American Federation of
Labor, the Railroad Brotherhoods,
and Labor's on-Partisan League,
is to join hands and see that labor
acts unitedly in these Hateful cleo
tons.
For the 1888 elections will deter
mine not only labor's fate, but that
of all the people. Labor must heal
the breach in its own ranks fostered
by its enemies. It must collectively
halt wage cuts and layoffs and speed
the work Of organizing the UNI
organized. 1t must come forward
as the champion of all the people,
as their bulwark against a fascist
solution of the crisis, as the organizer
of the democratic front for RECOV-
cry, SECURITY, DEMOCRACY,
and peace.

p~ersonaIized Whisky!

Brown-Forman Distillery at Louis
vile in Kentucky, ruffed back
through the pages of history a few
weeks back and used the hano
methods of years ago in bottline
several hundred barrels of rare. old
pre-prohibition Old Forester whisky
which they have held in reserve for
twenty-five long years.
The purpose in transplanting this
o~ld-fashioned picture into the mod
ern setting of Brown-Forman's
bottling plant was to convert a fore
sighted idea of Mr. Charles N. May,
general sales manager, into actual
realization - personalized whisky
selling and buyingl
The realization that this grand old
whisky would require a premium
price, fit in perfectly with Mr.. Mays
plans and so this rare, old stock was
bottled especially for individuals
who would be conscious of its true
worth and treasure it accordingly.
ORDERS for per~sonalized Old For
ester are, of course, clearing through
dealers and wholesalers
Great care was taken in the pack
aging design in order that it would
carry dignity and beauty worthy of
its precious contents. Bottles chosen
were of the antique, amber, hand
nodded, decanter type, designed and
made by the Owens-Illinois Glass
Co. The closure designed by Ken
lucky Bottlers Supply Co., consists
of a large Mundet mushroom top
flange cork with a ribbon loop over
the cork secured to the bottle by
means of a Dupont Colossal brown
band and wax seals which carry the
official Brown-Forman trademark
and insignia. Front labels are the
standard famous Old Forester labels,
which carry the handwritten assur-
ance by Mr.. George Garvin Brown,
founder of the BROWNE orman Dis
illery Company, that there is
nothing better on the market. Back
labels are printed in two colors on
brown suede and are imprinted in
dividually with the name Of the
purchaser or recipient,
Personalized selling and buying in
this instance is proving so successful
that the distillery intends to con-
tinue the same policy with part of
their more recent production of Old
Forester. The concensus of opinion
from leading merchandising experts
throughout the country is that per-
sonalized famous Old Forester and
pe~rsonalized selling of whisky as
instituted by Mr.. May is the clever
est merchandising effort in the
whisky industry since Repeal.

T0TALED $1,S44,203
Fiscal Period Closed with Bal
ance of S443,631, Secretary
Treasurer Morrison Tells Con-
ventiOn.

HOUSTON, Tex. (AFLWNS).-
The Importance of the financial af-
fairs of the American Federation of
Labor was statistically pictured in
the report of Secretary-Treasurer
Frank Morrison to the annual con-
vention of the Federation here for
the fiscal year beginning September
l, 1887, and ending August 81, 1888.
"At the close of the fiscal year,"
the report said, there was a balance
on hand of $443, 631.19. Of this total
$436, 774.96 is in the defense fund for
the local trade and federal labor
unions and the balance, $6,856.23, is
in the general fund.
1.-The total receipts from all
sources, 81, 844, 2O3 81, the total ex-
penses, 1887, 1889, amount of ex-
penses over receipts, $142,936.22."
A breakdown of the income for
the year reveals that per capita tax
receipts amounted to $3.50, 813.45;
assessments, 1895, 743.68; defense
fund for local trade and federal la
Dor unions (per capita tax from
locals, 1896, 1924; initiation fees,
$102, 1888; American Federationist,
1854, 1896. SO.
On the expense side the larger
items were: Organizers salaries and
organizing expenses, 81, 174,014.58;
office employees, $189, 1890; print
ing and publishing American Fed
erationist, 5000, 225. so; legal services,
SAT, O74.29; supplies and printing,
$44, 442.23; defense fund (strike and
lockout benefits), $780, 4S; executive
council meetings, $25, 679.04.
A note in the report regarding or
ganizing expenses said:
During the twelve (12) months
ending August 81, 1888, the Ameri-
can Federation of Labor expended
in organizing activities ST., 174,014.58.
OF this amount, 1858, 243 .93 was spent
in organizing and services for di-
rectly affiliated Trade and Federal
Labor Unions; the balance, $685.
770.65, was incurred in the formation
and assistance of newly formed local
unions of national and international
unions and in activities in behalf of
state declarations of labor and city
central bodies"

that it would create three million
more jobs than there were men to
fill them. Contrary to the stand
taken by DR.. Townsend, Mr.. Lea
backed Jerry O'Connell one hun
dred per cent and brought to atten-
ton the fact that Jerry was the first
man to come out openly on the floor
of Congress for the Townsend plan.
When Jerry O'Connell, fighting
progressive in Congress from the
western district Of Montana, got up
to speak, the audience rose, as one
person, to their feet, wildly cheer
ing. He pointed out the need for
the 20 per cent increase asked by
the Alliance and promised, if re-
elected to Congress, to do all that
he could to secure the increase. He
showed how reactionary groups
were trying to discredit the Alliance
by calling it Communist and eau
toned the membership against let
ting a red hunt" wreck the organi-
cation.
Jerry then created one of the most
interesting incidents of the evening.
He called attention to a mar seated
on the platform taking shorthand
notes of his (Jerry's) speech. The
man had been granted permission to
take notes by those in charge of the
arrangements and was seated in a
prominent place on the speakers
platform, in full view of the audi
ence. Jerry told how this fellow
was employed by the Republican
owner of a lumber firm and county
chairman of the Republican party
to take notes on his talks. He had
other reporters take down his
speeches for the Republican party
all over the state. After his ex-
posure, this fellow withdrew as far
from the view of the audience as
possible and turned his head away,
in shame at being identified with
such a %reactionary crowd.
Jerry then told how, in the pri-
mary campaign, he had secured the
endorsement of DR.. Townsend's sec
rotary for his candidacy, which
carried the tacit endorsement of DR..
Townsend himself. He pointed out
that he had always supported the
Townsend plan and had asked Presi-
dent Roosevelt to pardon DR.. Town
send when held in contempt of the
Senate. Now it would seem, he said,
that DR.. Townsend withheld his
support from him Derry because
he was for the plan and gave it to
his opponent, DR.. Thorkelson, be-
cause he was against it and always
had been. He told how, out of over
three hundred Democratic candi-
dates for Congress, the Republicans
had decided to concentrate on him
and ended by stating that he would
rather be a rubber stamp for
Roosevelt and the New Deal than
to be bowed to by the Morgans,
Rockefellers and others of the go
Families" who rule America.
Bob Dunnaway, president of the
local Workers Alliance and chair
mar of the meeting, told the writer
he was most impressed by the num-
Der Of former supporters of DR..
Thorkelson who asked to be intro
duced to Congressman O'Connell.
He also said that many persons who
had supported Payne Templeton,
n of Jerry's opponents in the pri-
mary campaign, had expressed
themselves as behind Congressman
O'Connell.
A collection was taken up which
netted thirty-one dollars and forty
one cents ($31.41). All in all, the
chairman and other leaders of the
Alliance congratulated themselves
on a most satisfactory and success
full rally.
