BY CARL HAESSLER

DETROIT OPP The bombshelt
attack on the Roosevelt administra-
ton by John L. Lewis over national
radio hookups Oct. %, and his I'M
qualified Endorsement of Wendell
Willkie for president produced mixed
reactions in Detroit labor circles,
especially in the CLIO which regards
the city as one of it's principal for
tresses in the nation.
Expressions off the record were
franker than those for publication,
though some unreserved statements
were made to the press. The main
drift was that the Lewis criticism of
the New Deal was largely justified
but 1--WE can't ask our members to
vote for heel like Willkie."
Speaking jointly, Michigan clio
Director August Scholle, Wayne Coun-
ty CLIO Council President Tracy Doll
andv Michigan Labor's Non-Partisan
League Director Darrell Smith de-
clared:
while we could agree with the
major portion of Lewis criticism of
the Roosevelt administration, Michi-
gan labor reserves to itself the same
right it accords Mr. Lewis-the right
of political selfdetermination-a it
cannot accept Wendell L. Willkie. In
dependently of national influence,
Michigan labor will obey the man
date of the Lansing conference and
work tirelessly for the reelection of
Franklin ID. Roosevelt"
JAW locals lined up on opposing
sides in Detroit, with the majority by
a considerable margin declaring them
selves politically for Roosevelt. The
UAW-CIO convention at st. Louis in
August Endorsed Roosevelt's reelection
by almost unanimous vote.
West Side Local TIA, Detroit, went
$50 far as to term Lewis a betrayer.

ENDORSE ATTACK ON ROOSEVELT,
DEPL0RE WILLKIE BOOST BY LEWIS

Other pro-Roosevelt locals wired re,
gretfully to Lewis. Two large locals
through their officers declared them
selves with Lewis 100 per cent, as did
ono international executive board
member. President R. ]. Thomas and
the other board members who ex-
pressed themselves followed the
Roosevelt convention mandate.
Off the record there was much
speculation on the reasons for the
Lewis stand. A favorite idea was
that he was reaching the conviction
that the system could no longer de-
liver to the workers and that the New
Deal was played out. Since Roose-
welt could not prevent defense con-
tracts going to lawbreakers after he
had sent message to congress out
lining the oppisite policy, it might
be better to patch up deal with
Willkie on labor representation on
boards. and in the cabinet!
Lewis may also have thought, it
was argued here, that while both
Willkie and Roosevelt are in the last
analysis warmongers, Willkie would
be more clumsy at pulling the wires
for u S. entrace into war than Roose-
welt In that case there might be
peace in Europe before we got in.
Labor men who like neither of the
dominant parties but realize that
there is no chance for the present
minority parties preferred to think
that Lewis was paving the way for
unions. They speculated that his
willingness to surrender the leader.
ship of the CLIO at Atlantic City in
November if Roosevelt is reelected
and they believe Roosevelt is sure
winner-might be based on the de-
termination of Lewis to devote most
of his time to expanding Labor's Nom
Partisan League into an Independent
party competing for control of con-
gress and the state governments in
the 1912 elections.
A final speculation was that Lewis
was taking the long-term labor stand
against labor opportunists who are
for Roosevelt on the short-haul. They
reasoned that Roosevelt was sure to
take the country into war, that the
Roosevelt labor lieutenants would be
called on to crack down on unions
making demands for wage increases
to match the rising cost of living, the
unions would rebel and Lewis would
come back as the real leader of labor.
