CAPITOL MARCH
TO GET VOTE
Great Suffrage Rally Set
For February y

Washington citizens should
march on Capitol Hill to demand
the vote for the District, it was
suggested last night at a mass
meeting held in the National Press
Club auditorium by the Confer
ence on District Suffrage.
Representative Jennings Ran
dolph, chairman of the House
District Committee and author of
the pending legislation to give the
District suffrage and national
representation. in a stirring ad
dress that drew a storm of ap-
plause, declared:
You have been fighting the
battle downtown. Now you must
carry the battle to Capitol Hill"
BIG RALLY FEB. 22
Immediately, plans were started
for this great civic demonstration,
and the date set tentatively for
February %.
For many years, it has been the
custom for both branches of Con-
gresS to meet on that day to hear
the reading of the farewell ad-
dress of the first President.
Representative Hatton Summers

House Judiciary Committee, de

lieves that constitutional amend
ment would be necessary to grant
national representation.
DARR DISAGREES
Differing with Summers, Seton
Darr, newly elected president Of
the District Bar Association, de-
clared he did not believe an
amendment necessary "aS there
is nothing in the Constitution pro-
hibiting it,
Pointing out that more than
$4,000 District residents saw Serv-
ice in the World War, Darr said:
If we are fit to fight, fit to
pay taxes and fit to hold public
office by appointment, then we
certainly are fit to vote"
Establishment of a municipal
assembly, form of government
here as the first step was advo-
Gated by William H. Mondell, vice
president of the suffrage associa-
ton.
ASSEMBLY OF FL
Under this plan there would
be an assembly of 81 members,
16 elected from assembly dis
trictS and five at large. The
assembly would have full powers
to handle all municipal legisla-
ton, subject only to any change
that Congress might ask.
"Autocratic rule" of residents
of the District under the present
form of government was criticized
by William A. Roberts, former
peoples counsel.
Malcolm S. McConihe, Demo
cratic national committman for
the District, and Edward F. Col
laday, Republican national COM
mitteeman, both supported the
move to grant the District suf-

FORD APPEALS
NLRB ORDER IN
ROW With UAW
Hearings Were Unfair,
Company Charges
BY EDWARD B. LOCKETT

Q.N.SO. The Ford Motor Com.
pany countered a National Labor
Relations Board order directing
it to open its plants to union or
ganizers today with a brief de-
manding that the board throw
out its own findings.
Labor board charges that the
company has been guilty of un-
fair labor practices were an
swered with the accusation that
the board has acted as prosecu-
tor rather than an impartial
judge in the Ford case.
QUESTIONS IMPROPER"
Evidence taken by Labor Board
Trial Examiner John T. Lindsay
should be set aside. the Ford brief
contended. Lindsay's questions
were improper" and leading" !"
argued the Ford attorneys.
The Ford case grew out OF
bloody riots at the Ford River
Rouge plant in Detroit during
May, 1887, when members of the
United Auto Workers attempted
to distribute union literature. The
Ford brief emphatically cited that
since that time Homer Martin,
who was then UAW president, has
lodged charges of communism"
against union participants in the
riot.
ORDERED TO REHIRE 20
CIO complainants in the hear
ing declared that hired Ford
thugs" set upon the union or
ganizers and beat them.
The labor board order directed
the Ford Company to stop inter
fering with labor organizing
among it's employees. and to rein
state with back pay 20 workers
fired for what the board termed
union activities.
Claims of the Ford Company
in the order were sweeping.
The companyS brief claimed
that witnesses testifying favorably
to Ford were threatened with per-
jury prosecutions. While those
testifying unfavorably to Ford
were protected against even sug-
gestions by Ford counsel that their
testimony was not true" said

Appointments Show Attitude

AS significant of the Presidents at
titude as his view toward spending are
the appointments he has made during
the last month. If anything can be
said with certainty about the Novem-
Der election, it is that the outcome rep
resented a stunning rebuke to the
New Deal for it's administration of re-
lief, particularly for the fragrant play
ing of politics with relief funds.
Irrespective of the goodness of his
heart or his subsequent repentance
the fact remains that Harry Hopkins
as its administrative head, was re-
sponsible for WPA. Either he was ig-
norant of what was happening or he
condoned it. Actually, not only did Mr.
Hopkins know what was happening
but he encouraged, by word and deed
playing politics with relief. He set the
example. So in some twenty states the
people last November repudiated Mr.
Hopkins administration of Federal re-
lief.
Does Mr.. Roosevelt bow to the man
date of the people and retire Mr.. Hop
kins to private life? He does not. He
places the laurel wreath of approva
on him by promoting him into the
Cabinet. He makes him Secretary o.
Commerce, the man whose function
it is to encourage business. Thus {
premium is placed on actions abhor
rent to millions of Americans as polit
ically immoral. Thus a man discredi
in one field of endeavor is honored il
another.

Hopkins Symbolizes New Deal

Hopkins SymbOllZeS New Deal
This much at least has been gained:
we shall have no more of Mr.. Hopkins
in relief. What a price is being paid for
that bit of progress! If Mr.. Roose-
velt had set out to do the thing which
would do most to discourage and dis
hearten business, he could not have
done better than name Mr.. Hopkins
Secretary of Commerce. This is true
because Mr.. Hopkins symbolizes in
his personality and his past record all
that is Objectionable in the New Deal,
even down to the fact that at one time
he was registered member of the
Socialist Party in New York City.
A former Socialist, a visionary whose
entire life has been spent in social
work, the greatest spender of all time,
guiding American business back to re-
covery! 1t would be highly humorous
if it were not so tragic.
And then Frank Murphy as Attor-
ney General! The people of Michigan
voted Mr.. Murphy out of their Gov
ernor's chair because they believed he
had condoned lawlessness on the occa-
sion of sit-down strikes. At least that
was the major issue in his campaign.
So Mr.. Murphy is named the chief law
officer of the Federal Government, de-
spite the fact that his experience as
practicing lawyer would not qualify
him to represent third-rate corpora
tion. How encouraging that appoint
ment must have been to the young
men throughout the nation now pre-
pairing for careers as lawyers!
Yet in the face of subsequent ap-
pointment by President Roosevelt, the
naming of Mr.. Hopkins and Mr.. Muir
ply shine with virtue. But as they are,
they cannot be compared with the
nomination of the left-wing Wiscon-
sin Progressive, Thomas r. Amlie, as
a member of the Interstate Commerce
Commission. In making that appoint
ment Mr.. Roosevelt demonstrated he
has no regard whatever for the pres
ervation of our basic economic system
or the American way of life.
Too Radical For LaFOllettes
Mr.. Amlie is too radical for the La
Follettes. They and their followers re-
jected his candidacy for the Senate last
summer. And no wonder! For Mr.. AM
lie is not only an advocaet of public
ownership of railroads, he is an avow-
ed advocate of the overthrow of the
American economic system. He does
not believe in trying to make it work
he does not think it is worth making
work.
"Under the course that we must fol-
low capitalism cannot be saved" he
declared to a Farmer-Labor Political
Federation Convention, and then ad-
ded: whether capitalism could be
kept going for another period of years
or not, is not worth saving"
Such is the man Mr.. Roosevelt has
named to have hand in the regulation
of the railroads. If he is sincere-and
none disputes that-he will undertake
from the influential post to which he
has been named to do everything with
in his power to prevent rehabilitation
of the railroads under private owner
ship. He will strive to bring about
public ownership as quickly as posi-
BILE. He will do more. He will seek to
destroy the present capitalistic sys-
tenn in America-because, as he says,
sit is not worth saving"

LOOKING FORWARD
By FRANKLIN WALTMAN
Publicity Director, Republican National Committee

In the month which has elapsed
since Congress convened it has become
crystal clear that President Roosevelt
has no intention of abandoning any Of
the New Deal policies or tendencies
which the voters of this country found
Objectionable last November. On the
contrary, Mr.. Roosevelt appears de-
termined to ignore the public senti-
ment registered in the November elec-
ton and to continue resolutely on the
course he has been pursuing.
First and foremost, of course, is the
New Deal spending policy. In both his
message to Congress and in his bud
get message, Mr.. Roosevelt plainly
indicated he has no desire to curb
spending. Indeed, for the first time, he
abandoned in those two documents all
pretense of even seeking a balanced
budget. On similar occasions previ-
ously Mr.. Roosevelt at least has given
lip service to the necessity of bal
anced budget.
The Republican., 1939-02-16
Just Economic Eye-Wash

But now he jeers at "a few million
dollars saved here or there" He sends
to Congress a budget demanding ap-
preparation of almost 10 billion dol
lars, sum larger than has ever been
requested on any occasion in oul
peacetime history. The fact that we
are getting deeper and deeper into
debt is CLOSED over with talk about
such indebtedness being a "Federal
investment" and with similar economic
eye-wash coined by the group of little
thinkers now directing the Washing
ton Administration.
When Congress, led by seriously dis
turbed members of the Presidents own
party, undertook to do a little judi
cious pairing of appropriations, COM
mencing with the deficiency relief bill
Mr.. Roosevelt set out to obstruct such
action. Not only did he seek to mar
shall public opinion against the move
ment, but he acquiesced in efforts to
"put the heat on Senators" made by
persons in his Administration and
through WPA.
