NO PLACE TO GO in this campaign,
except into the Republican party.
They have long since been
THROWN OUT of the unrecogniz-
able political machine that now bears
the name of the Democratic party,
but actually does violence to every
principle of the Democratic party
and to the faith of the millions of
loyal and vigilant Americans who
always have given it strength and
character.
They recognize that in this cam
paign the Republican party is the
only true AMERICAN party.
The Republican platform reflects
and expresses FAITH in American
institutions.
The Republican presidential
ticket is composed of men who Be
LIEVE in America, and are dedi-
Gated to it's preservation and are
CAPABLE of preserving it,
That is why the new National
Farm Committee is welcomed by
Democrats. 1t gives them place to
GO in this vitality important cam
paign-a place in which they can
serve their country according to the
faith they have in it, and a place in
which they can work for the rebirth
of an AMERICAN Democratic
party.

AN ORGANIZATION of agricul-
"A tural interests, representing 20
states and additionally affiliated
with the Democratic party, has been
created to support the Dewey
Bricker presidential ticket of the Re-
publican party.
It was inevitable that this would
happen, in campaign in which the
normal organizations of the Demo
cratic party have been made inopera-
tive through processes of usurpation.
The completely undemocratic and
largely UN AMERICAN Political
Action Committee has taken over the
presidential ticket and the presiden-
tial campaign of the Democratic
party lock, stock and barrel
Thus, millions of Democrats have
no ticket and no party-and will have
NO VOTE unless they make choice
between violation of their American
faith through support of the political
action ticket and party or fidelity to
that faith through the Republican
ticket and party.
Millions of Democrats have al
ready determined that the latter is
the RIGHT choice.
TT is natural and proper that they
L should now determine to have an
effective organization to represent
them.
The new National Farm Com
mittee is the result of that determi-
nation It's purposes are succinctly
stated by Mr.. Ralph Moore of Texas;
4 eve shall try to counterdct the
danger that great many lifelong
Democrats, refusing to Uote for the
New Deal, Diit feel inclined not to
Uote at ALL" says Mr. Moore.
"Our plan is to teach them that
Uote for DeOey and Bricker this year

CRATIC PARTY, which can come
back in its original coIors in I94S."

NEVERTHELESS, resentment continues and
~ the full extent of this resentment may appear
in the voting in Michigan where the CIO-UAW is
so powerful
Labor, the publication of the railroad workers,
makes this point:
g.. If Mr. HiIlman or any one, imagines that
a proposal to raise S6.000,OO0 to control presi-
Dental campaign will not cause the most serious
repercussiOns from one end of this country to the
other he simply does not know the American
people.
Inevitably Mr.. Hillman's program will
strengthen the hands of organized labOrs foes and
increase the demand for more rigid regulation of
labor unions.
IF only the Go were affected by such hostile
popular reaction, we might shrug our shoulders
and say, It's none of our business Unfortunately,
while the great majority of trade uniOnists have
no interest in or sympathy for Mr.. Hillman's
grandOise plan, the entire labor movement is
likely to feel the sting of popular disapprovaL"
This position is discussed openly in labor cir

Hillman fearing the consequences of his plunging

partnership with the Communists.

~ ton with the accommodations which Phil Muir
ray, advised by Sidney Hillman makes to the
Communist faction. 1t is estimated that 900
Go members belong to unions which are either
completely partially under the control of Off
GERS who are Communists or Fellow Travellers.
The pressures of these unions upon the whole
body is terrific and Phil Murray and Sidney Hill
man have neither the will nor the capacity to
resist them.
But most CIO workers resent these Commu-
mist pressures and the AFFECT surrender to them
by these chiefs.
The AFL fought this battle long ago and has
managed, with few exceptions, to keep the Com
munsts out of positions of leadership.
The fight on the Communists might have de-
veloped into an organizational crisis this year
were it not that Hillman managed to divert the
workers attention from the Communists to the
Political Action Committee. The excitement of
political participation has switched the issue from
such figures as Harry Bridges to the Importance
of keeping Roosevelt in Office.

THE task of the Political Action Committee was
twofold, to assure the election of Franklin ID.
Roosevelt and to brighten and coerce members of
Congress-
Hillman therefore went into the primaries of
both the Republican and Democratic parties to
finance the opposition to candidate whom he
opposed; to support those whom he favored. He
was not uniformly successful
The denomination of Rep. Hamilton Fish and
Senator Gerald Nye were blows to his prestige.
On the other hand Vito Marcantonio and
Adam Clayton Powell in New York carried the
Republican, Democratic and American Labor
Party primaries so that they will appear on the
ballots on election day unopposed.
Hillman came out of these primaries suf-
ficienty secure in his position to Justify, in the
minds of the New Deal strategists, continuance
Of centering the 1914 campaign in the Political
Action Committee
THE general calculation was that at least two
L large elements in the American population
would have to vote for Roosevelt because they
could not vote for any else; that is, the solid
south and organized labor.
We need not discuss the solid south in this
article.
Organized labor, however, has not come up
to Sidney Hillman's expectations.
Not only Individual workers but many Of the
leaders view the Political Action Committee not
so much as a movement to re-elect Roosevelt for
fourth term but as an apparatus to make Sidney
Hillman the boss of the entire labor movement,
ALL as well as Clio.
quote from the Journal of the Switchmen's
Union of North America as an example of this
position:
The CIO wishes to establish the standards
by which we will govern political activities.
1--WE have no disposition to criticize the ClO
for any policy it may see fit to adopt. That is
solely and exclusively the affair of the CO.
1--WE merely claim the same right. We adhere
to our policy because, period of 70 years. 1t
has been marked by success after success.
IF the CIO thinks it has better policy, we
are quite willing it should experiment to its hearts
content. But we hope our railroad workers are
too intelligent to be led astray by those whose
experience in the political field has been limited
and who up to date have achieved nothing of
consequence"
