COOP LEADERS
SEE METHOD FOR
preservation

Democracy can be maintained with
peace and abundance through econom-
lie cooperation, the Cooperative
League of the u s. A. declared here
in winding up its silver anniversary
congress.
The league restated it's opposition to
and adherence of dictatorship of any
kind and reelected its founder, DR..
James P. Warbasse, Brooklyn sur
geon, as president.
After the congress closed October
IS, more than 200 representatives of
AFL, CLIO and railroad unions met
to discuss methods of increasing the
buying power of the workers dollar
by organizing as consumers.
Mark Starr, educational director of
tho Intl Ladies Garment Workers
Union (AFL), reviewed the growing
interest of organized labor in con-
sumner cooperation. workers as con-
sumers can vote for a better stake
in life every day in the year if they
have sense enough to organize in con-
sumner co-operatives," he said
at is unfortunate that we get wide
ly excited over presidential contests
and pay too little attention to max
ing democracy work in our everyday
lives. The intelligent worker knows
that he needs a day-by-day trade I'M
ion to protect him and represent him
in the civilized procedures of collec-
tive bargaining. Just as he needs col
lective bargaining as a producer, so
he needs collective buying as con-
sumner to put democracy into over
ais"
In addition to Warbasse, officers
named by the league were: Murray
D. Lincoln, first vice president; How
ard A. Cowden, second vice president;
L. w. Woodcock, treasurer; and E.
R.. Bowen, general secretary. The
with William Liimatainen
and R. N. Benjamin, will make up the
committee.

Jackson Names
Professors Against
Democracy

WASHINGTON OPP = Big bust
ness moguls and mouthpieces were
listed as modern protectors against
democracy" by Attorney General Rob-
ert H. Jackson in a speech prepared
here for delivery October Is to the
Law Society of Massachusetts.
Listed by name were Chas. A. Lind
bergh, the League for Constitutional
Government, The Saturday Evening
Post, Pres. H. W. Prentis Jr. of the
Natl Assn. of Mfgs., Pres. Merwin K.
Hart of the New York state economic
council, and Maj.-Gen. George Van
Horn Moseley, retired army officer.
"They are spiritually and intellectu-
ally one with the group that opposed
freedom and independence of the col
onies from the king" Jackson said.
"They are of the same type as those
who called Andrew Jackson an enemy
of law and order because he and his
followers sought to abolish imprison-
ment for debt.
"These new bottles" he added, ARE
filled with the old wine OF caste, OF
economic exploitation and Of privi-
lege."
In his denunciation of The Saturday
Evening Post Jackson referred to an
editorial in the August "a issue which
he said deplored universal suffrage,
direct election Of senators, and the
graduated income tax.
The same editorial, he said, ex-
al Of 10
president has become more closely a
direct vote of the people rather than
the vote of the electors.
The same attitude, he said, Is ex-
pressed by the League for Constitu-
tional Government.
A speech by Hart, who is pal of
Rep. Martin Dies d., Tex, at the
Union League Club in New York was
cited by Jackson ".It is time to brush
aside this word democracy with its
Hart was quoted as
saying.
Harris contempt for democracy Is
made the more significant by the fact
hat he stated publicly he had sub
nitted this address in advance to the
president of the Union League Club
md had obtained his approval of 1t,
Jackson added.
Prentis, said Jackson, was on record

lum and recall as having brought the

took the position that the privately
owned public utilities and not the
farmers co-operatives should be sub
sidized by the government. And after
the government launched the REA
program, he fought it bitterly in the
courts, financed local and national
campaigns to discredit REA, ordered
construction of so-called spite lines"
to wreck local REA projects, and
helped to defeat pending legislation to
aid REA in Michigan and other states.
OF course, it is quite possible that
in all of these acts he was motivated
by love for REA so intense that he
wanted to kill the object of his affec-
tions-like Porphyria's lover in Rob-
name.
IN NOT A SINGLE INSTANCE DID
MR.. WILLKIE APPEAR BEFORE A
CONGRESSIONAL COMMITTEE IN

FICIAL TO EITHER THE WORKER
OR THE FARMER, BUT HE DID AP-
PEAR TO OPPOSE THE IVA ACT

COP Farm Record
There is no evidence of any mis-
sionary work on the part of Mr.. Will
kie to straighten out his fellow Re-
publicans in Congress on the farm
question. Here is their record on
farm parity and Triple-A:
Parity-On parity payments in the
Price Adjustment Act of 1888, As Re-
publicans in the House cast their
votes against it with 25 supporting the
measure, with no record vote taken
in the Senate. Again in the House
1874 Republicans voted against parity
payments in the 1889 appropriation
Dlll anu DuI IL fOltQ lOl lDCSt pay
ments, also with no record vote taken
in the upper body Parity payments |
in the 1910 agricultural appropriations
bill piled up an opposition Republican
vote of 143 in both the House and the |
Senate, and won support from only |
80.
Soil Conservation-The vote in the
House and Senate on the Soil Con-
servation and Domestic Allotment
Act in 1886 showed rs Republicans OPP
posed and 25 in favor of the Act. The
Triple-A Act of 1888 won support from
only Is Republicans in the entire Con-
gress, while "a cast their votes
against it.
1t would seem from the above that,
were Mr.. Willkie elected president,
MS first major job would be to con-
vert his fellow Republicans in Con-
1ress to his presumed views on farm
legislation.

Promises to Save Democracy

Mr.. Willkie not only promises to
save democracy, but says that unless
we elect him president democracy will
vanish from the earth.
But the record shows that Mr.. Will
kie is supported by the very big
money elements who have no faith in
democracy whatsoever, and that many
of these fascist-minded people are
numbered among his closest friends
and business associates. The U. S.
Chamber of Commerce for years has
attempted to undermine democracy by
campaigns to convince the
American people that the masses
haven't enough intelligence to govern
themselves. And who is so naive as
not to know that the Morgan-Lamont-
Wall Street crowd that built this
struggling" Indiana lawyer up into

the presidency of Commonwealth G.
Southern is now trying to put him
over as president of the United
States
The DoubIe-X
1t is certain that if Mr.. Willkie is
elected president-which is most I'M
likely = somebody will get what is
known as the double-cross. 1t will
either be the common people who will
have taken Mr. WILKES pledged
word at face value or it will be the
Wall Street gentry, the Henry Fords,
the Ernest Weirs, the Tom Girdlers,
and the rest of the labor-haters From
modern and from ancient history, we
known who it is that always gets the
double-cross.
profits for the first nine months of
this year have only trebled those of
the first nine months of last year.
What kind of national emergency is
this anyway!
Have Republicans Developed
Mohawk Valley Campaign Formula?
A few years ago the labor-haters
developed the "secret" Mohawk Val
ley formula detailed plan for des-
troying labor unions and breaking up
labor strikes.
Similarity of Willkie campaign tao
tics with those employed by his chief
advisor, Governor Stassen,
to defeat the Farmer-Labor party in
two years ago, leads OBJ
here to believe that COP
Mohawk Valley campaign formula is
being tried out based on the Mimi
esota experience.
Here are some of the striking points
Of similarity of the two campaigns:
Stassen posed and talked like
liberal, endorsed all liberal laws
placed on the statute books by the
and even promised
% extend these laws and administer
hem better; Willkie is posing and
.alking like a liberal, has endorsed
Ill liberal laws placed on the statute |
books by the New Deal, and promises
o extend these laws and to admins |
er them better.
Stassen said that he was not en-
ragged in political campaign but |
ather a crusade, which was not di- |
ected against the Farmer-Labor
,arty but against the "left-wing racke-
GERS who have built up corrupt
'olitical machine; Willkie says that
his is not political campaign but
crusade-that he is fighting the
Jew Deal and not the Democratic
arty, and charges a tie-up of the
Jew Deal with corrupt political ma
hines"
Stassen promised to cooperate with
vPA to the hilt; Willkie promises a
igger and better WPA. Stassen
better relief standards;
villkie says that those on direct re-
EFF are being Disseminated against
ecause they are receiving less money
nan those on WPA. Stassen prom
'ed to create more jobs in private in
ustry; Willkie promises to create
lore jobs in private industry than
lere are workers. Stassen said he !
