VenuOn program lHtO erect.
Representing over 100000
workers in this industry, the 800
odd delegates dispersed to local
unions throughout the United
States and Canada. The conven-
ton, eleventh in UE's history,
was generally credited with hav-
ing set the high mark for posi-
tive decisions on labor's current
program among all such gather
ings since VI day.
Efforts of a minority group OF
opponents of the UE's leadership
were spectacularly defeated in
votes ranging from four to six
against one, as the delegates
Overwhelmingly supported the
unions program, record and
leadership.
HIGHLIGHT of the tive-day
session was the Wednesday
speech of Senator Claude Pepper
of Florida, a slashing attack on
the foreign policy of Byrnes and
Truman.
unless we return to the prin-
ciples of Franklin D. Roosevelt,
we are headed for war;" said
Pepper. eff this is not done, you
might as well kiss your little boy
goodbye right now, because he's
going to be a soldier in a war OF
atom-bombs, rockets, and germs"
The libcsal wing of the Demo
cratic party is consulted scarce.
ly, if at ALL on matters of foreign
policy, he charged, but urged
progressives to pool their forces
and concentrate on trying to
nominate liberals on the Demo
cratic national ticket In 1913. :
THE FLORIDA senator hit

build up reactionary forces in
China, Greece, and Spain, and

Mediterranean sea.
1--WE are not the guarantors of
Western European Imperialism"
Pepper declared.
Peppers speech took place dur
ing the debate on political action.
The final resolution, adopted IN
animously, called for about sup
port of the CIO-PAC program to
elect supporters of FDR's poll
cies, and for cooperation with all
groups working toward the same
goal.
THE RESOLUTION warned
that this joint action will lay
the basis for a peoples party in
1913 if the Republican and Demo-
cratic parties continue to refuse
to heed the will of the American
people"

Yon Can't Buy Friends

Our Christmas spirit has been too
greatly commercialized in recent
years.
Once Christmas was no different
than other Christian feast days. 1t
was simply a day for prayer and
thankfulness.
Gradually various customs grew
up in Europe in connection with
the feast, and among them was gift
giving. Gifts in those days were
apt to be small trinkets, usually in
expensive in themselves, but were
symbols of friendship and esteem.
In recent years, Christmas gift
giving has been commercialized to
such an extent that many regard
it as their duty to send presents or
cards even to casual acquaintance,
who might be affronted if they do
not receive one, even though neither
sender or receiver bear each other
any special liking. !
This has been brought gradually
by ads and other propaganda of I
those who profit by it. 7
Why can't we return to the good
old days when a gift was symbol
of friendship and Christmas mail
didn't bring scores of cards from
casual acquaintances.-T A. Il
