In the old days, Hillman was a sworn
enemy Of the radical Big Bill Haywood,
who was trying to shanghai garment
workers into the I. W. ".
This dangerous man was described by
Time magazine in 1888 as "the potent
anticommunist Vice President (of the
c. I. o. Sidney Hillman, whose growing
influence permeated the c. I. o. conven-
ton"
Business Week summed him up in
1910 as "the key moderate in the c. I.
o., champion of unity with the wing and
challenger of the John L.. Lewis propen-
sity for going too fast and too far"
Hillman is chairman Of the Political
Action Committee, which is supporting
Mr.. Roosevelt. This committee is poten-
TALLY important politically and is great
" feared by a lot Of people. Up to date
its candidates have been successful in
some places and have been beaten in
others. Despite close investigation by
government agencies, no improper or il
legal act has been established against the
P. A. c., whose members are wholly
within thei rights as citizens in organ
izing for political uprposes.
So this labor leader, %co-operator with
employers, banker, insurance executive
does not look like very much Of a bogy-
man when the truth is told about him.
