the JOURNAL and each other
The political discussion was set
off when City Manager George n.
Schoonmaker cleared Safety Dlrec-
tor Edward DeAngelo of the
charges made against him the week
previous of engaging in political

Mr.. Schoonmaker informed Mr..

different than any other citizen and
could express his opinion as he saw
fit; but that organized politics was
out.

WASHINGTON, Oct. 16 (FP)-
When a delegation from Local 645
of the United Auto Workers
(CIO); from Grand Prairie, Tex,
stopped in Washington on the way
home from the UAW convention
and visited the notoriously anti
labor Texas delegation in congress,
they found defensive crew.
Sen. Tom Connallr said he was
responsible for only the first seven
provisions of the Smith-Connally
act, and that he personally dis
approved of the others, sponsored
by Rep. Howard Smith Cd. Va.).
Sen. w. Lee O'Daniel defended
his vote against the Presidents
$4,000 ceiling on salaries but said
he was for a 1000 war profits tax.
His claim was for repeal of the
poll tax-but by state action-was
exposed as phony by the delegates,
who pointed out federal action was
the only practical means of repeal
ing the poll tax.

Parra'r Urges
GLObdL Postwar
Health Plan

NEW YORK - (FP) - A per-
manent worldwide health organiza-
ton to formulate global strategy
against disease was urged as a
postwar necessity Oct. Is by
Surgeon Gen. Thomas Parran of
the U. S. Public Health Service.
Speaking before the conference
of the American Public Health
Assn, Parran said that no nation
can isolate itself from disease.
Just as no nation can remain at
peace in a world at war, no nation
can enjoy the best of health in
a world wracked by human ills.
Two main reasons for this, Par
ran said, are: ID postwar air
transportation will break down
distance barriers and (2) return
ing troops in all nations will in
evitably bring back diseases of
other lands.

People actually
Prefer Sales Tax,
Fortune Says

NEW YORK - (FP) - Fortune
magazine Oct. Ia added its bit to
the big business campaign for a
sales tax, revealed by In Fact as
a plot Of the Natl. Assn. of Manu-
facturers. Fortune made public
the results of a survey which
showed you've guessed it) that
the majority Of the American peo-
pie (52ao) actually prefer a sales
tax.
Of course, there was a catch to
the question. People were asked
if they preferred a sails tax to
increased withholding tax on sal
aries. With their backs to the
wall, they answered as follows:
High income group, 66.79o for
sales tax; upper middle, 57.7q6;
lower middle, $3.50; low, 1850.
Wage earners, apparently, were
not so hot for the idea.

DEARBORN, Mich, Oct. Is
(FP)-Thousands of signatures are
being affixed to petitions against

crusade started by Ford Local 600,
United Auto Workers (CIO).
Union locals do not as rule dis
criminate on color basis in sports
but not single recreation center

ronized Paradise alleys, permits
mixed white and colored teams to

rector Fred Sweet of the Ford

Chest leaders pointed to the ac-

the fact that much of the success

Richard Lazette, CIO Chest di-

Chairman Robert L. Doughton
appeared impressed, as did other
committee members. Apparently a
professor is long-haired, imprac-
tical and visionary only when he
is on a government payroll, and
is fount of wisdom when speak

Treasury Argument Puzzles
Said Doughton thoughtfully at
one point: "I've never been able
to reconcile the Treasury's argu-
that increased income taxes

tax would increase infla-
-s<4on."
The U. S. Chamber Of Com
merce experts said the sales tax
would collect substantial rev.
enues from those receiving
four-fifths of the national in
come. :" They suggested min
imum exemptions or none at all.

suitable for campaign pur-
poses; but each time, when
the owners or real estate op-
orators discovered the purpose for
which the building was to be used,
they refused to rent, or gave the
excuse that the committee should
come back. When the committee
which was seeking a location re-
turned, they were told each time,
"the building has been rented. In
one instance, less than one hour

Real Estate Operators Oppose
Labor's United Political Action
Tom Burke S
Campaign


Richard Gosser, chairman Of the
Burke for Council campaign, re-
ports favorable progress in the vote
drive for the Local II vice-presi-
dent.
Many meetings have been at
tended by Mr.. Burke and members
of the speakers committee who are
working in his interest. Democratic
meetings held in various parts of
the city have been attended by Mr..
Burke, who reports that interest in
the campaign is mounting.
PLAN MASS MEETING
Mr.. Gosser reports that the Civic
Auditorium has been engaged for
a giant mass meeting and political
rally which will be held the night
before election. He said, "This year,
we of labor are going to call the at
tention of all the people of Toledo
to the fact that there is going to
be an important municipal election
held November 2. We realize that
in other years there has been con-
siderable public apathy with re-
spect to municipal elections, and
this year might be just as bad, due
to the war, but we are going to do
our best to see to it that a large
vote turns out this election day, and
that most Of this vote is from la
bor."
Other candidates supported by
the Labor Joint Committee for Po-
litical Action will appear at the
Civic Auditorium mass meeting, as
well as candidates for municipal
judge. No candidates for Judge have
been officially endorsed by Labor
Joint Committee.
Radio Time Engaged
Radio time has been engaged by
the Burke committee over radio
stations WSPD and WTOL, accord
ing to Mr.. Gosser. Time of the
broadcasts will be announced in
next'week's edition of the TOLEDO
UNION JORNAL.
Betting odds on Mr.. Burke's cleo
tion in the downtown places is even
money with few takers against
Burke, ample evidence that the wise
money is picking Burke to win.
Confidence among Burke's adher-
ents is high and the consensus Of
opinion is that he will - elected.
Campaign literature has been
passed out through Local II shops
and more is being readied for the
last minute drive for votes. Feeling
among the Local IL workers is that
Mr.. Burke will surprise everyone
and will run well up on the ticket,
but his supporters are taking moth
ing for granted and are continuing
their efforts to get out a large la
Dor vote. They feel that the larger
the number of voters, the greater
will be their candidates chances of
being elected early in the count.
