Competition between different

Gotham ALP
Hopes to Win
SoIon'S Seat
Communists Beck
n. r. Condidote
In Poor District

washington Feb. 6-CUP)-The
American Labor Party, which Is
strictly In cahoots with the Commu-
nists, hopes to win another House OF
representatives seat in a New York
city by-election scheduled for Feb.
10.
The ALP candidate Is Johannes
Steel, q German-born journalist and
radio broadcaSter. who became a
United States citizen in February Of
1898. The Communist press Is whoop-
ing It UP for Steel's candidacy. Steel
does not claim to be and it Is not al
legged that he is a member OF the
Communist Party.
But the Communist Daily Worker,
published in New York, has accep-
ted him as its own. There apparent
ly is no doubt in the minds OF Com
munist Party leaders that Steel will
support the party line II elected. The
by-election will be in New York'S
10th District, an East Side conStit-
uency vacated by the election Of the
incumbent to q better paid county
job.

results closely. This contest will diff
fer Importantly from previous elec-
tons in the adjoining 18th District
where Vito Marcantonio. also of the
American Labor Party, has been re-
turned to the House in recent years.
Marcantonio's district lies north OF
the one Steel will contest. 1t en-
braces an East Side area and also
a portion of Harlem where Negroes
live in conditions Of such discoln-
fort and sQualor that Communism
has swept like wildfire among them.
Marcantonio, however, has been
able to run as a combination cam
didate. being nominated not only by
the ALP but by the Democrats and
Republicans as well. His election has
not given a clear contest between
the Communicated ALP organiza-
ton and the old line parties. Steel
will have competition.
The Republicans have nominated
William F. Shea and the Democrats
Arthur K. Klein. The ALP evidently
expects with much confidence and
some justification that the compara-
lively conservative vote will be split
between Klein and Shea and that
Steel will ride in with the consol-
idated left wing.

He didn't know what it meant
to have a reserve" one of his regi-
mental commanders reported. His
division was made up of three of
the finest regiments in the Army
and the general knew it. He gave
the orders and didn't worry about
them doing the fighting.
Bradley was not one to throw
his men onto the casualty list I'M

Springfield, nj, FEB. e-Cup)--
Dwight II. Green, Republican gov
erior Of Illinois, said today he
would not attend his party's annual
Gincoln Day dinner in protest to
che unauthorized solicitation OF
plneable sums Of money" IN con-
nection with the banquet.
The dinner. which the Governor
denounced as "a shakedown Of bus
sness men for vague political pur-
poses" had been arranged by John
y. Tyrrell. chicago lawyer and
chairman Of the state COP Central
COMMITTEE.
Tyrrell could not be reached for
comment, but his family said he
was going ahead with plans for
the banquet.
In q letter to Tyrrell, Green said
he had received information that
the dinner and his scheduled APP
pearance had been seized upon as
an excuse for the unauthorized
solicitation OF Sizeable sums Of
money"
solicitors have falsely represent
ed themselves as directors Of state
departments under my jurisdiction"
The letter said. They have gone
so far as 10 make threats Of re-
prisals by state agencies II contri-
buttons are not forthcoming. In
every instance that has come to
my attention these solicitors have
asked that checks be mailed to you.
In plain terms. what has been
taking place amounts to a shake
Gown Of business men for vague
political purposes, through nisrep-
reservations and intimidation"
The Governor said such action
had been taken without his author
iation and without any official
action Of the COP State Central
Committee.

BY HUGH CRUNTPLER
United Press Staff Correspondent

The 96th (Dead-Eye) Infantry
Division, work-horse outfit of the
Philippines and Okinawa campaign
ended World War II with a record
OF probably killing more enemy per
day than any division in U. S.
Army history.
Led by Maj. Gen. James Bradley,
Rolla Mo. whose own expert marks
nlanship typified the skill that won
the division its nickname, the
96th'S Midwest and Southwest GTS
slogged through some of the bitter
est fighting of the Pacific with
little public recognition of their
record.
Such designations as the perfect
infantry division" the finest ex-
ponentS Of "alley fighting in mod
ern war" and the best damned
bunch of fighters since the Alamo
describe the 96th.
Grenades Their Speciality
Bradley is characterized by oath
Corps staff officers as "one of the
most human general officers in the
Army" He was largely responsible
for the 96th's envious combat rec
ord. Under his command, his men
learned to be experts with a rifle.
But their skill with hand grenades
earned them fame for mitigating
tactics on Okinawa.
II never saw a bunch of soldiers
who liked to fight with hand gre
nades so we'll" one Army observer
reported to the gath Corps. lone
or two companies in every regiment
did nothing but carry hand gre
nades for the others. When those
boys opened up with grenades, it
looked like the whole hillside was
blowing up"
On Okinawa Bradley gained a
reputation for getting a maximum
number of troops where they could
do the most good-on the front

Locking for Ohumps
Who Believe Alomlc
Bomh Is MIghilsF

New York, Feb. o--(Up)--Ilarry
Kraus was on the prowl through
Manhattan crowds yesterday, look
Ing for chumpa who still think that
the atomic bomb Is the ulndlsputed
champion Of the world.
Kraus, q former Naval lieutenant,
Is backing the UsS independence,
q I0O0O-ton aircraft carrier, and
he'll take ali bets providing they
give him odds Of 30 10 /.
He already has one wager In his
winter book, and he's hoping for
more before his old ship Joins the
atomic fleet in the Pacific next
May.
'"Tne only reason that I'm de-
handing such big odds Is to teach
folks q lesson when they lose"
Kraus, who Is assistant manager
Of the Hotel Commodore, said to-
day. Il know that atomic bomb
is hot stuff, but SO Is the old INDIE
pendence."
Nothing New As "Pig"
Kraus was a junior gunnery and
communications officer on the In
dependence for "a months. The In
dependence started out to be a
cruiser, but the Navy changed her
to an aircraft carrier.
Being guinea pig won't be
anything new to her." Kraus said
"and she'll survive It,"
He said that the Independence
from the time she was launched
in 1912, has been tossed into all
types Of experiments and always
bobbed up on top.
"She was the first light-heavy
cruiser to be converted into an air-
craft carrier" he said, land she
managed to stay afloat after every
one had predicted that she wouldn't
last 10 minutes in a nan.size war.
AT Tarawa the Japs blew las
hole In her side and the damage
control boys figured that she was
going to turn up her keel and
drown, but she didn't.
Then somebody got the wild
idea of having double catapults for
planes, and the old independence
was the first to try them out. Ev-
erybody predicted that all kinds
of things might happen, but she
lived through it without a scratch"
KrauS said that the "Kamikaze"
suicide planes really proved to him
that the Independence is an old
lady who is destined to die in bed.
Seven Japanese Kamikazes tried
to nail u.s." he said. "All seven of
them missed but each plane man.
