Rubber Stomp

Yet this is the type of Congress
that the Republican candidate for
President wants elected.
Much hullabaloo used 10 be made
about an allegedly rubber stamp"
Congress. Now we have the aston
ishing demand from the Republi-
can candidate for a rubber stamp
with nothing written on 1t.
IT Is my deep conviction that
the workers, together with the
farmers, the businessmen and the
housewives Of this country will
answer this plea for n do-noth-
ing, plan-nothing, think-nothing

but the crew, aware of the plan,

ers would accomplish a similar
result by tipping" resistance
groups, who would dislOdge the
rails at q least expected place.
So successful was the work Of
the railroad workers and the bonn
bers that the Provisional Govern
ment has asked the Allies for 1900
locomotives to replace those de-
stroyed.

the recent refusal Of the Republic
can members of Congress, particu-
larly In the House of Representa-
tives, 10 take any steps toward
planned, rational reconversion OF
industry from war to peacetime
production. The record OF the Re-
publicans has been found wanting;
not only were they unwilling to
cooperate with the plans OF the
Roosevelt Administration for re-
conversion but they were unable
to come forward with anything re-
sembling a plan or a program OF
their own.
The reconversion issue goes right
to the heart Of jobs and security
for all. The administration propOs-
ais would have taken long step
toward this goal, by securing war
workers and veterans against un-
employment and by aiding indus
try with a planned, rational ap-
proach to the difficult change-over
period.
The Republican proposals con-
tanned no protection for war
workers or veterans. They had
nothing for industry, nothing for
the farmers, nothing for ner-
chants.
The CIO news., 1944-10-09
Startling Contrast

When we look at the two candi-
dates and the two political parties
seeking our support in this cleo
ton, we find a startling contrast
in the thinking and in the pro-
grams that they propose for our
future.
On the one hand, we have the
record of successful planning and
carrying out of defense measures
and of the final Offensives that
are leading MS to victory over
the Axis.
This planning and these pro-
grams have been carried out under
the direct guidance of our Presi-
dent and Commander-in-Chief,
Franklin D. Roosevelt. His leader
ship has made the miracle of pro-
duction" possible. Industry, labor,
government and the
people as whole have worked to-
gether under his leadership to
bring us to the very eve Of victory
in war.
On the other hand when we
look at the opponents Of Presi-
dent Roosevelt we find o record
that grows hourly more negative.
Not only do the Republicans lack
the ability to plan or the fore
sight to look ahead but they are
unable or unwilling to cooperate
with those who do possess fore
sight and the ability to think .
problem through.
The clearest evidence is found In

Hitlerites were harrassed by the
workers through countless acts Of
sabotage such as the placing Of
sand In machinery, making parts
that would not fit and shipping
parts to the wrong factory.
Members Of the railroad unions
were I'm q strategic position TO
commit acts Of sabotage and they
missed no opportunities. The
French railway system was kept
In q constant stage of disorgan-
ization through placing Of dyna-
mite In locomotive boilers and
destruction of turntables ut vital

and q Congress In our democratic,
American manner.
To achieve full production and
Jobs for all, we must have PLAN
ning-national planning.
With the best will In the world,
individual industries or individual
men and women cannot achieve
this goal working outside the
framework of a national plan. We
have found this to be true during
our period of about war produc-
ton. 1t will be just as true during
the postwar period now coming so
close to us.

WIICs
Under the drive of a great
war for survival as a nation,
we have achieved miracles of
production in war materials.
Now the end of this war is in
sight. AS V-Day approaches, we
see clearly that the tremendous
industrial machine that we have
built up for our protection in
time of war must be turned to
peace-time uses.
How are we to utilize this In
dustrial machine, the greatest in
all history? Are we going to use it
to Its full capacity, employing all
Americans who are able TO work in
doing so, or are we to let 1t lie
idle and force millions of men and
women into idleness with It?
This is the question we as Amer
leans and voters have to decide
next November Z. Like many other
questions, 1t is a political one
one that Is decided by the political
process of selecting a President

Cesf0po Active

Meanwhile, the French National
Committee has been operating In
London under the leadership Of
General Charles de Gaulle since
the capitulation Of France. The
committee In France kept the re-
sistance functioning in France.
while the committee In London
actually directed the guerrilla and
sobtage activities, the spokesman
said.
He explained that because Of the
necessity for great secrecy In
France, where the Gestapo was ever
watchful, the work had to be d.
rected from London, where 1t was
possible to obtain Q better overall
picture.
The activities Of the whole
movement had TO be conducted In
the greatest secrecy. Nobody
knew more than two others In
the movement the man he got his
orders from and the man he gave

the orders TO. Thus, II . resister
broke under Gestap0 torture, only
three persons would be lost to
the organization and the chain
could soon be repaired.
Among the big sabotage opera
tions was the dynamiting Of pipes
supplying water power for the op-
Grafton of huge hydro-electric
plants in the French Alps. Several
months were required to repair
such damage. Industries, depend
ent on the plants for power, such
as a large bauxite works and the
Creusot armament plant, closed.

1t was pointed out that while the
great majority of union members
were true to the French people.
there were q few false labor lead
ers as there were traitors In other
walks of life. These formed the
phony Vichyite National Workers
Union, which did not deceive the

rank and file Of the workers.
Union members also joined the
Maquis In fighting the Germans.
They became parts of units that
were formed or were in the prec-
ess Of being organized. Often
union members became the lead
ers of Maquis units.
The CIO news., 1944-10-09

Here, too, the railroad workers
played an important part. One Of
them would send word of the pro-
posed ammunition movement to
the shortwave operator who would
relay the message to the London
