Commenting on the Presidential

TAXI BANDIT

Thomas J. Garrett. jr., a taxi

that turned out to be a hold-up
man last night but he managed
to dump his troublesome pas
senger to the ground in the 200
bloc: of Fifty-fifth st. N. E., he
told police.
Garrett said that the man, white
and about 20 years old, hailed him
at Second and E Streets North
west and asked to be driven to
Forty fifth Street and Benning
Roat Northeast. En- route he
changed his orders and told Gar
rett to keep going" When the
cab reached Fifty-fifth Street, he
said the man ordered him to stop
and then got into the front seat
with him.
Holding hand in his pocket as
though he had gun he demanded
CARROTS money. Garrett gave him
the SITS in change, then started
his car and threw the bandit to
the ground.

NATIONAL FARLEY

Resolutions calling for a ma
tional CLIO convention where the
proposed permanent Set-up would
be laid before delegates for action
are pending at the conference OF
industrial union leaders.
AS start toward establishing a
permanent organization to com.
pete with the rival federation in
every field, the CLIO leaders had
formed four permanent commit
tees to deal with legislation, hous-
ing, social security and unemploy-
ment. Lewis announced other
committees will be named as the
need rises.
Despite appointment of David
DubinSky, president of the Inter
national Ladies Garment Workers,
one of the biggest unions in the
CLIO set-up, as chairman of the i'm
portant housing committee, re-
ports persisted here that he in
tends to withdraw from the Lewis
organization if a permanent or
ganization is formed. Dubinsky,
who did not come to Washington
for the conference, has denied the
reports.
Julius HICKMAN, who repre-
sented Dubinsky at the confer
ence, said he thought his chief
would serve as chairman of the
Housing Committee.
HITS COMMISSION
A singing indictment of the
Federal Maritime Commission is
contained in a resolution awaiting
approval of the industrial union
leaders today.
Lewis and Joseph Curran, head
of the CLIO maritime unions,
bluntly told reporters the commits
sion has directed against maritime
workers "a campaign of force
worse than that of any private
shipping operator. ~
Curran charged the commission
is ignoring the Wagner Act and
attempting to set itself up as a
dictator in the maritime field.
Emphasis at the present meeting
has been upon unemployment and
the need for vigorous pump-prim-
ing as a means of alleviating the
business recession. Lewis in his
opening address declared the re-
cessions must be faced realiSti-
cally," and that it is up to the
Government to supply necessary
money to meet it.

Preparing to slash their final

and Chairman John L. Lewis to-

Organization into a permanent

field.
The CLIO chieftains are conSid-
ering adoption of constitution
and bylaws to govern their forces
in almost the same manner as the
Federation controls its members.
When such an organization is
effected, every tie the CLIO ever
had with the AFL will have been
removed

By OBSERVER

Much of the local interest in
the current campaign is conferred
upon the fight for state represen-
tative. Bernie c. Papy, incum-
bent, and Municipal Judge T. S.
Caro- are staging toe-to-toe bat
tie, with Everett w. Russell
standing hopefully on the side
lines.
Papy will have strong support,
but he is facing equally as strong
opposition. Many contend this
opposition is strong enough over
whelmingly to defeat him. While
Papy has been appealing for con-
sideration for reelection on the
basis of his record in the Legis-
lature, Caro- and his loyal fol-
lowers are using that very record
as justification for Papy's defeat.
Their principal argument is that
Papy used his official position
and such prestige as he possessed
on that account to further his own
interests instead of looking after
the welfare of the people of this
county.
Among the items they list in
support of that contention is the
fact Papy could have killed the
fishing license bill, which is a
thorn in the sides of so many
Monroe county citizens, by OBJ
iccting to consideration by the
house of the measure when il re-
CURED a single dissenting voice to
prevent it from being taken from
committee and placed before the
legislators for vote. The record
shows Papy failed to raise dis
senting voice.
1t was a foregone conclusion,
many fishermen are declaring,
that if advocates of the fishing
license bill had not been assured
of passage of their measure they
would not have tried to bring i.
up for vote. In withholding
any objection to this step. and il
required unanimous consent TO
take the measure out Of commit
tee, these fishermen state Papy
lost an opportunity to kill the
bill definitely and finally. II
should be stated in all fairness
that Papy did vote against the
bill on final consideration, but il
was too late then for his opposi-
ton to be effective.
Similarly. other parts Of Papy's
record arc being attacked by his
opposition. In each case they state
Papy was more interested in his
personal resentments against GER.
tain individuals and devoted
much of his time in defeating the
