and courageous thing l ever saw or
heard"
He was referring to the straight
forward, uncompromising second
ing speech made by Vice-President
Henry A. Wallace. Wallace had
just finished speaking.
Whereas others did not cry, no
one was unaffected.
Wallace cast aside all caution.
He spurned any appeasement or
compromise. He was being fought
by the reactionaries in the South
because of his liberal, democratic
and unprecedented views on race
being opposed by the machine poll
ticians whose eyes looked down the
road toward control in event of an
uncertain future possibility of the
Vice Presidential nominee of this
convention becoming the President
of the United States-being VIC
timized by political chicanery and
double-dealing.
But into this den he strobe as
chairman of the Iowa delegation,
and literally stuck his head into the
lions mouth and defiantly pro-
ceeded to twist it's tail. That the
lion bit his head off does not de-
tract from his courage.
Knowing his liberal views were
being used against him-he pic
tured the President as a greater
liberal today than he has ever been.
Then, hitting straight between the
eyes, he looked toward the dele
gates from South Carolina, Louisi-
ana and Mississippi and said:
"The future belongs to those who
go down the line unswervingly for
the liberal principles of both politi-
cal democracy and economic de-
mocracy regardless of race, color
or religion. In a political, educa-
tional, and economic sense there
must be no inferior races.
"The poll tax must go! Equal
educational opportunities must
come! The future must bring equal
wages for equal work regardless
of sex or race"
His words set off a spark of en-
thusiasm, they kindled the fire of
respect in the breasts of even his
avowed enemies.
On those words, Wallace grew in
stature as man, as a fighter, as a
champion.
On those same words he went
down to defeat before the conven-
ton and before the world as can
didate for the Democratic nomina-
ton for Vice President of the
United States.
Like Wendell Willkie, his liberal
ism, independence and courage en-
deared him to the people and killed
him with the politicians. But-like
Wilkie again-neither he nor his
ideals will be soon forgotten.
