Byrd Rebuts Charges

ulSOH, He asserted, mas maze only
one positive statement as to how he
CHutchinson) would stand on voting
issues raised. This. the Senator
added, was that Mr.. Hutchinson
"unalterably opposed" a section of
the Truman railroad strike bill to
draft striking workers in essential
industries.
There" Senator Byrd said, "Mr,
Hutchinson placed himself under
the banner of Senator Taft, who led
the opposition to this legislation. I
voted for President Truman on this.
Following Mr.. Hutchinson's stand
ards, he'd be 100 per cent Repub-
lican, on the basis of what he's said ),
Attacking what he termed "out-
side and sinister influences" seeking
his defeat, Senator Byrd said his on
ponent could not escape the label of
ClO-PAC candidate because if
they're after my scalp, they've got
to vote for Mr.. Hutchinson"
He said he was opposed to special
privileges" for labor or any other
group and would continue his fight
with no compromise" to put labor
unions on the same statutory basis
as corporations and individuals.
COP Leader Attacks Byrd.
John Locke Green, Arlington
treasurer and a State Republican
leader, in an address today over
Station WSVA, Harrisonburg, said :
Every enlightened Virginian
knows that Senator Byrd's cam
paign conducted against the CIO is,
IN effect, witch hunt. If the peo-
pie of Virginia fall for such simple
minded propaganda, then it would
appear that we have our Bilbos and
Talmadges with us. " &"
In furnishing the truth" to
voters, he said, 'the great majority
OF the press of Virginia fails miser-
ably. 1t seems that most of the
newspapers of this State are either
owned or controlled by Byrd's ma
chine or are afraid that reprisals
would be made by the large cor
porate advertisers. Under such con-
ditions we have no free press"
