PldYing Of Power
Politics Leading
To 3rd World Wur
Socialist Candidate Forsees
Stain Dominant In
Postwar Period

Louisville Ky. 0LNS). - "Phony
internationalism,' and bungling for
eign policy is leading directly to a
third world war, said Norman Thomas,
Socialist candidate for President, at
a mass meeting here. He predicted that
Stain would emerge as the dominant
power in the postwar world.
The peace of the world lays in the
hands of three men, Stain, Churchill
and Roosevelt, said Thomas, of whom
"only Stain and Churchill know
exactly what they want" Both of them
are totally committed to the aggrand-
izement of their own countries and are
relying on the old way of power
politics which has always failed Some
Americans will accept this statement
regarding Churchill and the British
Empire but hotly deny it of Stain.
Other Americans will do the exact
opposite with equal vehemence. On the
record both Stain and Churchill are
playing the same sort of power poll
tics game"
Says Stain Presents Challenge
In Italy, Allied bungling has turned
the Italians toward Russia. And i'll
Europe, generally, Stain is emerging
as the dominant figure. HE will con-
ciliate most of the Balkan peoples; he
has already given Rumania, long an
enemy of the Allies, better terms than
he will give the Poles, in whose be-
half this war was ostensibly begun.
1T looks as if he deliberately let the
bravest of the non-Communist Polish
patriots die without supplies from him
in Warsaw to simplify his problem Of
ultimate Polish control. He had pre-
viously killed scores of Polish Social
lists leaders, the best known of whom
we're Ehrlich and Alter. If Roosevelt
made any protest or proposed any
alternative plans for Poland he was
unsuccessful. And Roosevelt together
with Churchill apparently threw the
Films whose cause they had so passion
ately and justly espoused in 1910 to
the Russian wolves without outward
qualm or protest. A crushed and de
pendent Finland will be the gateway
to all of Scandinavia"

union movement, it will be impossible
TO rebuild democratic Europe.
"A permanently crushed labor move
ment abroad" the statement declares,
will mean that we have failed to win
the war of ideas that we have been
fighting against Nazism and Fascism.
Pointing out the probable effects of
such failure ON American labor,
American industry, and the future
peace of the world, Mr.. VOL warned
that forced and impoverished labor
in Europe will lead 10 the flooding OF
world markets with cheap commod-
ities. 1t will be "A threat 10 American

n dangerously lowered standard OF
living for American workers. Beyond
all this. the existence of forced ana
impoverished labor in Europe will SET
the stage for violent economic conflicts
which cannot but lead TO third
world war"
"The American Federation of Labor
now constitutes the most powerful ana
vigorous democratic labor organization
in the world" he continued. 1T is to us
that the workers of Europe are looking

been made evident through the tragic
events of the past decade that free
trade union movements are the strong
est bulwarks of peaceful and demo

tion of Europe's free trade unions Will
be the most effective way TO maintain
existing high living standards of
American workers, since it wilIGslllni-
nate the ruthless competition resulting
from oppressed, underpaid, slave or

Failure to stand by the democratic
forces within the European labor
movement in their continuing fight

the statement concludes.
The entire membership Of the AFL,
Mr.. VOL said will be moblized for

About the Author

THE public careers of Gov Earl Warren of California
4 and Gov. Dewey of New York have run curously
parallel Neither has had appreciable break IN his
record Of service.
Fresh from law school of the University of California
Warren entered World War buck private and emerged
first lieutenant. In 1919 he named clerk TO the
judiciary committee Of the California state assembly From
that time, he devoted himself to public interests.
Warren was born Los Angeles 1891 and attended
school Bakersfield but he chose Oakland Cal) for his
home There after the close of the 1919 assembly he was
appointed deputy city attorney. In 1922 he became deputy
district attorney of Alameda County.
LIS brilliant work prosecutor led 70 his promotion to
chief deputy district attorney in 1925 and shortly after
ward he appointed district attorney.
For the three following terms 192630-3h he was
elected the office and during this period distinguished
himself by cleaning of crime and corruption IN the
city administration and the county government.
In 1895 when he drafted for attorney general Of
California Warren received the nominations of all major
parties, Republican Democratic and Progressive.
EVEN before the expiration Of his term he nominated
l. governor Republican ticket lie election
