HAIL COTTON Ed
DEFEAT IN S. C..

WASHINGTON. D. C.-The de.
feat OF Senator Ellison D. C"Cotton
Ed) Smith in the South Carolina
Democratic primary last week was
hailed in the nations capital by
informed political observers as a
warning 10 Congressman that ca
reers built on race batting" cam
not survive.
Negroes, however. take little
comfoi, in his successor, Gov. DIN
d. johnson. who, judging from past
performances. sees eye TO eye with
Senator Smith on his white su-
premacy" views.
The reputation OF the 80-year-
old dean OF the Senate who was
bidding for his seventh term is no
minor political incident. Long op-
posed to the New Deal. cham
pion for white supremacy" and
states sovereignty, he has been
incorporating in shouting his
hatred whenever he could get any,
one to listen. His rabid views, his
senility, his lack of sufficient or
gained political backing spelled his
doom.
Walked Out On Prayer
In the 1886 National Democratic
Convention held in Philadelphia.
Cotton Ed Smith stalked out OF
the convention when the Reverend
Marshal Shepherd. pastor Of the
Olivet Baptist church. at that time
also member OF the Pennsylvania
State legislature, was called on TO
give the prayer orening one OF the
sessions. He would not be I'm
suited by having TO listen TO Ne
gro minister pray.
AS chairman OF the Senate Agri-
cultural Committee. he devoted the
greater part OF his time pushing
cotton. the principal crop OF South
Carolina, raised by highly under
paid farm hands. predominantly
Negroes. into the councils OF the
nation.
While Governor Johnson conduct
ed a pro-Roosevelt campaign. he
admitted that he disagrees with the
President on certain domestic poll
cies" Johnson's resentment OF the
Supreme Court ruling which estab-
llshed the rights OF Negroes 10 par
ticipste in Dem ocratic primaries is
best shown by his blatant denunci-
alton OF the decision.
Takes Anti Ballot Action
In week-long special session OF
the South Carolina legislature
called by the governor in May,
South Carolina wiped her books
clean OF approximately 10 refer
ences TO state primaries in an et-
fort 20 foresisll any legal action
which might permit Negroes par
tcipstion.
Il Is understood tha. the 4S-year-
old governor Of South Carolina
had the support OF LABOR IN his Cam
palsn.
Commencing or his defeat SEN
ator Smith SAID. /. this election
meets the approval OF majority
Of the qualified voters Of South
Carolina, abide by their decision.

Members Of AFL
 ToProduce More Superfortresses
Workers Thrilled As Their Babies Bomb H. Out
 Of Japs

All America was thrilled by the spectacular bombing of Japan by long-range Superfortresses, but no one got as big a kick out of the news as the thousands of AFL workers who make these giants of the air.
 In Boeing plants in Seattle, Wichi- ta and other sections of the country where the Superfortresse are in pro duction, AFL workers pledged them selves to increase output of the worlds biggest, newest and most powerful bombing plane.
 Millions of words were printed in the newspapers in praise of the great Superfortresses, but few mentioned the fact that the skill and genius of union workers made them possible.
 One of the few exceptions was Under Secretary of War Robert P. Patterson, who said:
 ''The bombing of the islands of Japan by our new Superfortresses, the B-29, is just a beginning. We will strike at the heart of Japan again and again. The Superfort- resses are product of American labor and industrial genius and are very tangible example of the partnership existing between those laboring on the home front and the armed forces in the active thea ters of war.''

.UnionLegionMen Take Issue With Warren Atherton
PIP Union Posts Hit Com mander For His Pro-Draft
 Labor Stand

Strong condemnation of the anti-union policies pursued by the ruling powers of the American Le zion was voiced at the two-day National Conference of Union La. Dor Legionnaires just held in Chicago. More than a hudred delegates from PIP trade union Legion posts attended.
 Brunt of the attack fell upon Ma tional Commander Warren Athertor for his advocacy of draft-labor legis- lation and for his refusal to send members of the Legion's National Labor Relations Committee to the meeting.
 Edward Ahrens, representing the Chicago Federation of Labor. declared that the way to make linen like AthertOn understand that we veterans are not in accord with his pOlicies," is for union members who have served in uni form to ''jOin the Legion and make ourselves heard.'
 Resolutions adopted at the con- ference assailed the deliberate at tempt of anti-union forces" to smear labor's war record, called for con- structive postwar policies and lib eral provisions for veterans of this war and supported full collaboration among the United Nations to bring about lasting peace after victory.

Bridgeport Man .DevelopsScheme For Saving Metal
John F. Burnett's Idea Wins National Recognition
 Of The WIPE.

Int 75 nm. guns of our field ar tlllery, tanks, and planes will be sup piled with an additional $500 rounds of ammunition annually because a rank-and-fle Connecticut war worker devised an ingenious scheme for re- claiming cartridge cases previously rejected for undersized body dia- meters.
 John F. Burnett of the Bridge. port Brass Company, Bridgeport. today won national recognition from the War Production Board for his idea, as Frederick Bowes. Jr., New England regional mana. ger of WIPES War Production Drive, announced an honorable mention award for Burnett and congratulations to the company $ Labor-Managemenk Prod u II Committee, through whose sugges. ton system Burnett had previously received high plant honors.
 Burnetts idea was to salvage slightly imperfect, but unusable shell cases by expanding their side walls to meet precise specifications. He ac- complisIed this by inserting the cases over supporting post and nose piece and then striking the shells bases with drop hammer something their tapered shape apparently made i'm possible.
 Burnett's thinking -onthe-job, in- spired by the Labor Management Committees suggestion campaign prompted him to question losses through rejections; and his careful examination of the shells showed that his scheme was workable.
 Burnett became the l75th New England war worker to receive a national WPB award for ideas to speed weapons an,' supplies to the fighting forces. His Labor-Manage. ment Production Committee, joint ly composed of company produc- ton executives and members of the union in the plant, has long been ranked a model among the 4,6OO such production teams in the nation, and the 4l2 in New England.
