MINE WORKERS JOURNAL
FOR DEWEY'S ELECTION

Washington, D. C. (ILNS) The
Mine Workers Journal, official organ
of the United Mine Workers of Amer
lea, has endorsed the Republican ma
tional ticket.
A four-page article by X. C. Adams,
editor, praised the labor and security
planks of the Republican platform.
There was no personal comment by
President John L. Lewis Of the union.
II believe that readers" the arti-
Gle said, "who will make a comparison
OF the platforms of the Republican
and Democratic parties through the
years will agree that the declarations
contained in the Republican labor
planks bespeak the considerations
that are uppermost in the minds Of
the men who toll in mine, mill and
factory"
Adams said the COP labor plank
coupled with the security plank. rep-
resents the best labor considerations
ever offered by either the Republican
party or the Democratic party in the
history Of platform making in these
United States"

blunt report. In effect, he said the
CIO Political Action Committee was
merely shadow-boxing. The only ac-
tivities he could discover were getting
out releases to the press, printing
pamphlets for the guidance of cam
paign workers and making a lot Of
noise for publicity purposes.
This story hit the PAC where ii
hurt the most. AS result, one Of the
leading figures in the PAC, formerly
employed by a government agency
started fued with the reporter. 1t
is fair deduction that the PAC boys
would not have been so peeved by the
story unless it were true.
Summing up the evidence, we must
conclude that the PAC is putting on
an act rather than action-an act full
of "sound and fury, signifying moth
ing"
Naturally, if President Roosevelt
is reelected the CIO will loudly claim
all the credit. But if the President is
elected to a fourth term, it will be in
spite Of rather than because of the
CLOS help.
AS for candidates for lesser office,
they are likely to find that the benson
of the CIO in 1914, as in former years,
will turn out to be the kiss Of death.

An Emergency Call
Right in line with these assevera-
tions, we'd like to relate significant
incident. The newspapers emphasized
the fact that the mayor of New Eng
land city, who was endorsed by the
CIO, won the Democratic nomination
for governor of this state.
The morning after the votes were
tabulated and these newspapers
stories appeared, the official in ques-
tion telephoned to AFL headquarters
in Washington. He sounded very dis
turbed. He said he wanted to make it
clear that he was not CIO candidate.
He indicated that he did not believe
the CIO endorsement had been of
much help to him and might turn out
to be boomerang. He urgently
sought to be assured that the circum-
stance would not cost him the votes

much more numerous than the CIO.
Since his relations with the AFL have
always been friendly and cooperative,
the candidates. fears were ground
less.
We decided to investigate the mat
ter more closely to find out little
more about why the mayor was SO
deeply disturbed. We discovered that
every candidate for Congressional
nomination in his state who was en-
dorsed by the CIO had been defeated
in the primaries. We also discovered
that in the one clear-cut contest be-
tween opposing candidates one en-
dorsed by the AFL and the other by
the CIO - the one approved by the
ALL had won.

FACING
The
F FACTS
With PHILIP PEARL

How much weight will the CIO Poll
tical Action Committee swing in the
November elections
It's hard for the public to tell be-
cause the PAC is a rather tricky out
fit. Already it has gone underground
and left new organization to front
for it, called the National Citizens
Political Action Committee.
This is in accordance with the typi-
cal Communist technique. The reason
given is that unions, under the Con-
nally-Smith Act, are forbidden to
make political contributions and that
therefore new committee was neces-
sary to raise campaign funds by vol
untary contributions.
But a more practical reason is ap-
parent. That one is to take the CIO
name out of the organization title.
The Communist stooges behind the
PAC are canny enough to realize that
the initials CIO are enough to give
any outfit black eye.
Confirmation is provided by recent
survey conducted by the Gallup Poll.
We don't always hold with the accur-
acy Of this poll, but we believe in this
case their conclusions were right, said
conclusions being that majority of
the people in this country would be
Inclined to vote against, instead Of

Full Of Sound And Fury

Now we come to the real root Of
the question. In order to determine
how much weight in the CIO Political
Action Committee will swing in the
elections, we must first find out how
much it is doing.
This was the question that occurred
to a top writer for PM, New York
City's liberal tabloid whose editorial
and political policies are very much
in line with those Of the CIO.
The reporter investigated the mat
ter carefully and wrote an honest and

No wonder those seeking public
Office are inclined to get the jitters
when endorsed by the CIO!
Let us cite an additional factor
Curiously enough, reactionary writer's
and newspapers are the ones who en-
phasize the CLOS political activities
most strongly. Why? Do you suppose
for moment that they're trying to
advertise the CIO or its political
aims? The answer is obvious. They
figure a CIO endorsement is the
strongest campaign argument against
q candidate.

BEW ENDOWS
ELECTRONICS SCHOOL

Washington, D. C.-The Interna-
tional brotherhood Of Elec trio a
Workers announced that it had estab-
lished and endowed a national cleo
tronics school by arrangement with
the Engineering College of Marquette
University in Milwaukee.
Through this school, President Ed
J. Brown hopes that the members OF
his great organization will keep
abreast of one of the most important
chronological developments of this
era-that of electronics.
Brown pointed out that the cleo
tronics industry, which involves the
manufacture of machines controlled
by electrical "robots" through use
of photo-electric cells and vacuum
tubes - has grown by leaps and
bounds during the war until it is now
four -billion-dollar industry.
Military equipment of all kinds, on
land, sea and air, owes it's precision
in large part to electronic devices.
After the war, Brown predicted, cleo
tronics will open the door to un-
dreamed-of chronological progress,
and union electricians are determined
to play great part in the operation
of that industry.
The school at Marquette, which has
high standing among the nations uni
versities, will get under way Novem-
Der | under the direction of the Mar
quette engineering faculty, with the
addition of two highly-experienced
men from the unions ranks as con-
sultants.
Eight intensive six-week courses,
which are to be call work and no
play" will be offered each year,
Brown explained, with 80 to 85 stu
dents per class, each to be nominated
by local union. They are to be drawn
from all fields in which members
work, including the railroads.
That will mean the training of over
| 700 men year in the operation and
maintenance of electronic equipment.
In turn, they will go back to their
locals as instructors to conduct fur
ther night classes, SO that, on an over
all basis, $4,000 unionists can be
trained for this occupation annually.
The international Office of the /. B.
E. w. will pay all tuition costs at
Marquette, averaging 100000 annual
ly. Local unions generally will pay the
transportation and lodging expenses
of the students.
In letter sent out this week to all
locals, President Brown and Secretary
G. M. Bugniazet made it clear the
rogram was embarked upon because
of the swift transformation overnight
of the electrical industry from one
kind of industry to new kind"
Electronics is now four-billion-
dollar industry. 1t is destined to be-
come larger after the war. In fact, it
will become the dominant part of the
electrical industry.
"Electronics machines will be used
everywhere for lighting, cooking,
cleaning and in industrial production.
These machines must be installed and
maintained. They take new knowl-
edge"
Brown added that, since the Broth
erhood has the majority of the ma
tons skilled electricians, the industry
naturally looks to this source for it's
craftsmen.

things London charwomen did at the

they call this affront to their dignity
