Mrs. johnson, who is a candidate
for State Warehouse Commissioner
on the Democratic ticket, urged the
support of President Roosevelt and
"his great program of social legis-
lation."
81 do not believe in either Presi-
dent Roosevelt or Governor Dewey.
-. am concerned about what the
people want and do" asserted
George Wills. He said that the
Negro should not vote as Negro
hut as an American citizen and he
should vote for the best interests
of all. Mr.. Wills showed his party
preference when he said that the
Democratic party had only one
man, Roosevelt, but that the Re-
publican party had several men who
would have made good candidates.
He admitted that he could not see
why the Negro could or would vote
the Democratic ticket.
Paul Chelstrom pointed out that
both the Democratic and Republican
parties have done little or nothing
for the Negro. Why have the anti
poll tax and anti-lynching bills been
passed and why is there continued
discrimination and segregation in
the armed forces and elsewhere
against the Negro, he asked. The
Negro will not secure his full rights
under either of these "capitalistic
parties" the speaker said, as he
pointed out the need of the forma-
ton of a real workers party. Mr..
Chelstrom said that he had never
voted for either the Republican or
Democratic parties and that he had
always voted for the Farmer-Labor
party, which had been supported by
the workers in its heyday.
William (BilD Heron made the
observation that there was consid-
cradle applause when either of or
both of the major parties were
being citicized during the discus
sion and that maybe there was or
should be another party under con-
sideration in the discussion. The
Negro should not think in terms of
parties, and he should support is
sues rather than parties, Mr.. Her
ron asserted. He scored people for
not registering and voting as did
Mrs. Della Hollosumback, who
urged the support of President
Roosevelt.
Boyd Cites Collaboration of
Parties on Negro
There has been collaboration be-
tween both the Republican and
Democratic parties in keeping the

serted Frank Boyd, who scored both
parties for collaboration" against
the anti-pol tax and anti-lynching
bills.
Miss Bertha McNeill, a school
teacher in the Washington, D. c.,
school system, spoke to the meet
ing before the open discussion was

secretary of the national Board of

for Peace and Freedom, declared
that nothing is really being settled
by this war. "This war is not set

Vienna Johnson Speaks

Mrs. Vienna Johnson, who at
tended the Democratic National
Convention, declared that the dele
gates from Minnesota were not
satisfied with the brief statement
on the Negro in the Democratic
party's platform. The Minnesota
delegates wanted fortnight dec
laration for the passage of the anti
pSll tax and anti-lynching bills and
a permanent FEPC. She admitted
that the Southerners were very
vociferous in their demands and
prejudices at the Convention. She
said that she agreed with the for
mer speaker (Mr. Rogers) in his
contention that party platforms do
not mean much and that they are
"idealistic" and can only have
meaning as the people demand that
they have meaning. "The people,

F. D. R. Like Other Politicians

President Roosevelt, just as other
politicians, has lodged the issues
in many instances, asserted Lathrop
Rogers, who said that he was
neither a Democrat nor Republican.
Mr.. Rogers declared that it was
well for the Negro not to vote
solidly for either party. He pointed
out that Governor Dewey, the Re-
publican candidate, had appointed
Negroes to prominent, well paying
positions in the State of New York.
Some of the weaknesses in the
Democratic party's plank on the
Negro question were pointed out
by Mr.. Rogers, who also declared
that party platforms do not mean
much.

1t appears that the solid Negro

of the major political parties in the
coming national election if the SEN
timents and statements made by the

1t is the opinion of the writer of
this story that the foregoing state
ment is true and that a good cross
section of the opinions of Negroes
and liberal whites on the candidates
and platforms of the Republican
and Democratic parties was given
in the discussion.
Salters Praises Roosevelt
Edwin Salters, speaking for the
Democratic party, said that the
Negro should vote for the Demo-
cratic ticket because President
Roosevelt has done so much for the
Negroes. Mr.. Salters declared that
vote for the Democratic party was
in reality a vote for Roosevelt. He
admitted that man in such a posi-
ton as the President would be
greatly criticized. Mrs. George
Mundell asked Mr.. Salters later in
the discussion whether the Negro
should vote for a change of admin
istration in the midst of the war
when President Roosevelt has given
such good leadership" Mr.. Salters
said that President Roosevelt was
the greatest international politician
of our day in our country and
should be kept in office. He re-

To Press Cartel Suits
BY the Associated Press.

BY the Associated Press.
The Justice Departments de-

firms on charges of cartel con-
spiracy brought this comment from
the Army and Navy journal yes
terday:
Common sense would call for no
interference with deliveries (of
munitions) while the war is on
The three firms, which have war
contracts involving the use OF plas-
tics, are E.. I. du Pont de Memours
and Co., Rohm g. Haas Co., and
Bendix Aviation Co.
Proceedings against them were
halted last year when the War and
Navy Secretaries said 1t would mot
be in the public interest" to prose
cute during the present state Of
war"
The actions are being resumed,
acting United States Attorney
Thorn Lord said in Newark, N. j.,
last week, with president Roose-
velt's approval. A Washington
official said the cases were i'm
portant' for the Governments re-
conversion program.
The Army and Navy Journal, an
unofficial publication said of the
Justice Departments demand:
Secretary (of the Navy Forrestal

terson, concerned that necessary ma
chimes shall be furnished in a con-
tinuing stream to our armed forces,
held that the suits against the firms
could be deferred without damage
to the public interest, until after
the war ends. Attorney General
Biddle took the surprising position
that as the trials would not be un-
duly long the indicted executives
would not be embarrassed in man
agement and that in any case it was
important that illegally-owned pat
ents should be available to other
manufacturers.
If the war were over, there might
