 The speaker pointed out that the Democratic Party since the days of Andrew Jackson presented definite almost radical reform movements which they maintained In power during . definite cycle and then entered c state of conservatism"
 "It Is the latter state we witness in the Truman administration" he said..
 On the national scene the speak, CT criticized both labor and man. agement, charging the former with indulging in many stupid acts in recent years" and the latter with past expressions of lack of good management"
