THE COMMON DEFENSE
(By Rev. William C. Herman, Director Institute for
American Democracy, Inc.)


''There is a man in the u S. Senate named Theodore
G. Bbo Recently he opposed passage of Federal Anti
discrimination law He tried to prove that enactment of
this legislation meant oppression for people and the
destruction of their freedom He called the proposed
FEPC un-American, communistically inspired mon
strosity From coast coast he has been severity
sured-not because he fought the FEPC-bu account
of the in which he did it.
For he resorted to the most easily recognized brand
Of fascist technique Having referred to the pro-
posed law un-Amercan and communisticaly inspired
he blamed the colored people and the Jews those re-
sponsble for it. IT, in short there is way efec-
tive than any other for arousng preudces hatred against
whole groups people in this country Senator Bbo used
it. For he deliberately and unustfably identified the
colored Americans and Jews with something that he
called un-American and communistic.
'If the Senator did not know, he might have known
that support of Federal FEPC cuts all racial
religious and economic lines Not only do Americans who
are coored and Jews believe in it, but Americans who
white and Christians do, too-ncudng President Tru-
man. Anti-dscriminaton legislation finds some of its
strongest friends its most eloquent advocates among
prominent Protestant and Catholic cergymen Are they
un-American and communistic too? Will the Senator
say that?
Another instance of the manner in which Senator
Bilbo approaches national problem-which ought to be
solved its merits without reference to racial and reg
ious prejudice-appeared in letter he wrote to an
American woman of Italian ancestry W s

from 1922 to 1925, and from 1880
to 1888, he was Mayor of Boston,
serving three terms which will
be remembered in history for all
time because of their remark
able accomplishments and their
rich contributions to the pro-
/ gress of the City of Boston, and
to t he welfare and happiness of
all the City's people.
When he left the off ce of
M ayor in 1888 to become the
Governor of Massachusetts the
City tax rate was 1920 per
81 1000 of valuation--as compared
with Boston's tax rate of today
of $42.50, an increase of 1910
per $1,000 of valuation. And yet,
with no appreciate increase in
taxes and with no help from the
Federal Government during his
terms of service, almost $780,
100000 was expended for neces-
sary civ c Improvements. In
spite Of the fact that the tax
rate has increased $97O per
$1,000 in the past twelve years,
and having in mind that the
City has been the recipient OF
gifts amounting to a total of
.$35,51l,310 from the ederal Gov
eminent in the last eleven years,
there has been no major con-
struction proposed and complet-
ed during that time.
James M. CurIey provided a
living wage for employees of the
City; gave the laboring groups a
two weeks vacation with p ay;
gave the first material advance
in their daily wages; instituted
the pens on system. and estab-
lished the Municipal Credit
Union.
James M. Curley envisioned
and planned the modern Boston
City Hospital which ranks second
to no other free hospital in the
entire world. He established, for
the first time in this country,
health units in the thickly popu-
lated sections Of the City which
have been clearing houses for
public health and have saved
countless lives.
James M. Curley built more
adequate and intelligently locat-
ed school buildings than any

Although her highly original

have played the biggest part in
establishing her as a pianist,

A BRIEF SKETCH OF The LIFE OF HON.
JAMES M. CURLEY

The Honorable James M. Cur
ley Of Boston, former Governor
and Mayor, and now Congress-
man from Massachusetts, and a
candidate for Mayor of his native
city at the coming election on
November 6, is one of the most
colorful figures ever to grace the
public life Of this nation. AS an
executive of tried capacity he
has no peer. He has had the
train ng and experience, and
possesses the outstanding ability,
to stamp him as an outstanding
champion and servant of the
people. AS a gifted orator he
ranks with such men of the past
as Daniel Webster and William
Jennings Bryan.
Born of humble parentage, he
was left fatherless at the age
of ten. AS the eldest son, he be-
came the head of the family and
went to work to help his widowed
mother keep the home intact.
Meanwhile, through courses in
night schools, hours in libraries,
and reading far into the night by
the light of oil lamps, he educat-
ed himself and prepared for the
distinguished public life which
was to follow.
James M. Curley became a
member Of the Boston Common
Council in 1900, his first public
office. His record since that
time has been little short Of
amazing He served as a Coun-
Gilman for two years. He then
went to the Massachusetts, House
Of Representatives for two years.
