The suit was filed by Harry Alan

At the very outset of his speech
the President took up the question
Iof his health-which has been
raised as an issue this year-and
recalled that in 1928 when he was
campaigning for the governorshir
of New York, the same discussion
had been injected into the race

twice nominated Mr.. Smith, a

that when he spoke in the 1925

POLITICAL ACTION
COMMITTEE

The CLIO Political Action Com
mittee has as a primary objective
the organizing of labor's vote. The
Negro working man and woman are
important and necessary parts of
this group. No drive of this ma
ture, therefore, could be undertake
en- without an awareness of thi s
fact and a determination to make
it count.
If re-emphasis be necessary, we
state now that a genuine effort will
be made to win the support of the
Negro trade unionist and the trade
unionists of all minority groups, for
it is with labor that minorities
have their biggest stake. To this
end we shall place our arguments
with the Negro people in the
South as we'll as in the North, and
with equal vigor.
The Committee knows that in
readily identifiable sections of our
country, unfortunately, there a r e
still certain hazards and obstacles
between the desire to vote and the
