Democrats Enlist Aid
Of Pepper, Wallace
In November Elections
BY The Associoied Press

The Democratic National Com
mittee today achieved at least a
prediction ar1nistice with Henry
A. Wallace and Senator Pepper OF
Florida, the party's severest critics
of administration foreign policy.
First the committee announced 1t
will handle arrangements for their
campaign speeches on behalf of the
ticket in the November elections.
Then Representative Sparkman of
Alabama, chairman of the Commit
tee Speakers Bureau, predicted
President Truman will run in 194S
and that both Mr.. Wallace and
Senator Pepper will support him.
Just one week ago Mr.. Sparkman,
referring to Mr. Wallace and Sem
ator Pepper, had told reporter:
I'VE don't want to send out any
one as a speaker who is going to call
Secretary Byrnes a reactionary or
say he is all wet, or any one who
is going to urge independent voters
to stay home"
Counting on Pepper Support.
But last night Chairman Robert
E. Hannegan of the National Com
mittee and Mr. Sparkman an
nounced jointly that they had dis
cussed the campaign with Senator
Pepper and that he will speak in
support of Democratic nominees in
various parts of the country.
I'VE are counting on him to be
very helpful" and added "he agrees
with us that it is vital to the future
welfare OF this country to return a
Democratic Congress on Novem-
Der s."
Mr. Hannegan had said Thurs
day that the committee would in
vite Mr.. Wallace to address Demo-
cratic groups who wanted to hear
him.
Sponsorship is not Factor.
Committee officials said the ques-
ton of whether Mr.. Wallace and
Senator Pepper have official "spon-
Isorship" is not a factor. If party
organization wants either to speak,
the committee will ask them to
accept.
Mr. Sparkman's declaration that
he believes President Truman will
seek reelection came later during a
radio interview.
What about a Wauace-Pepper
ticket?" he was asked.
They have both said they are
against a third party" Mr.. Spark
man answered. Il expect both of
them backing the Democratic nomi-
nee"
Asked whether the party had
suffered great harm from the Wal
lace-Pepper blasts against admin
istration foreign policy which led
to Mr.. Wallace's dismissal from the
cabinet, Mr.. Sparkman replied:
II would rather that it had not
happened, but I don't think it did
the party great harm"
May Ignore Foreign Policy.
A Wallace aide said last night the
former Commerce Secretary has
speaking dates October 81 and %
in Michigan and probably also will
be heard in Pennsylvania, Wiscon-
sin, Indiana and Minnesota under
auspices of the State Democratic
organizations.
The aide expressed belief Mr.
Wallace will lay off further foreign
policy discussions until after the
Paris Peace Conference and stump
for the party as whole on domestic
issue only.
Senator Pepper will speak tomor-
row in Chicago. Later engagements
will be in Boston, New Haven, AT
lanta, Brooklyn, Michigan, Indiana
and Pennsylvania, the nationa
committee said.

and that operators, when asked why
they had left their cars, said:
1--WE don't want to get hurt"
The spokesman added motormen
in all cases drove the cars into the
barns before abandoning them.
The AFL Central Labor Union,
with membership of 175,000, which
had supported the Duquesne Light
workers in their battle against an
antistrike injunction, issued a state
ment saying I'VE now serve notice
on them (the strikers) that the AFL
will not tolerate any interference
by them with any companies using
power with which we have agree
ments"
The statement continued:
1--WE propose to provide the
public with transportation facilities
so long as there is power. 1t is the
responsibility of our affiliates to man
transportation facilities required by
the AFL and CIO members and the
public to go to and come from work. "
AFL officials did not indicate what
steps they would take to restore in
terrupted bus and streetcar service.
Anthony J. Federoff, regional di-
rector of the CIO, who also sup
ported the anti-injunction fight, said
the CIO hoped the conduct of
George L. Mueller, independent un-
ion president, will not embarrass
the legitimate labor movement, or
we will be compelled to divorce our
selve completely in supporting him."
The union seeks 20 per cent pay
raise, which would boost the average
base rate from $118 to $1.41; the
company offers per cent.
Fewer people were on the streets.
Many shops and Office buildings were
closed. Automobiles were more evi-
dent.
Citizens still were getting electri-
cal service in their homes but were
urged to be sparing of its use.
Housewives grew reStive under con-
tinued postponement of washings
and ironings. Some disregarded
pleas of the light company that no
appliances be used.
The average person was incon-
venienced but not suffering physi-
cally. Some were hurt financially.
About 10000 clerical and production
workers among the 100000 resi-
dents in the 817-square- mile affected
area were idle. The work stoppage
caused at least 100000 loss to
business, industry and payrolls.
