are included in the political plat
forms adopted by the N. Y. state
conventions of the Democratic
Party, the Republican Party and
the American Labor Party, which
are now taking place. The Demo
cratic platform urges the outlawing
of such discrimination in the field
of employment.
Bitain's policy on Palestine is
severely criticized in the platforms
of the Democratic Party and the
American Labor Party. The Dem
ocratic platform condemns the Brit
ish for resorting to brutal repres-
sion of the Jewish inhabitants,
whose historic and promised rights
to a Jewish national home are con-
tinually being violated by a manda-
tory power.

The American LABOR Party plat

the United States to press for the
ending of the blockade against
refugees" for the withdrawal of
British troops from the country, for
transfer of the mandate to the
United Nations as a trusteeship and
for immediate unconditional admis-
sion of 100000 Jews from Europe.

Bricker's speech had none OF these
qualities. He started of well, but
at the end of about five minutes
he had begun to develop his chariey
horse. Apparently totally unaware
of the amenities Of an OCCASION
when the President is the guest OF
honor and a fellow speaker, he ad-
dressed himself directly to President
Truman, in boorish manner, thus
proving that whatever else he might
be, he was not White House broke.
Sarcastic and Badgering.
In a sarcastic and badgering vein,
he rebuffed the sporting suggestion
that had been made after the No
vember election by President Tru-
man. that he was willing to CO.
operate with the Republicans. In
the opinion of Candidate Bricker,
cooperation is neither possible nor
desirable. The Republicans are
going to run things to suit them
selves. Jeeringly he said to Presi-
dent Truman that he had not dared
to 20 into Ohio during the CAM
paign. Henry A. Wallace had been
"afraid" to enter the State OF the
late President Harding and the Ohio
gang" too, according to Mr.. Bricker.
Moreover, said he, a mistake had

been made Of sending Harold L.
Ickes into Ohio-as II President
Truman had had anything to 40
with it.
The Senator added that the people
did not like Mr.. Ickes, who, I am
sure, II he were given the chance,
would reply that people who could
make a political hero out OF John
w. Bricker could hardly be expected
to have normal likes and dislikes. An
additional gem was that President
Truman had made mistake in
sending Senator Pepper into Ohio.
Then, sticking his spurs into the
sides Of his steed, our gallant orator
galloped to the support Of the Con-
stitution. He averred that the Demo-
Gratis had been subverting the Con-
stitution, and that he, probably in
the high tradition Of Messrs. Foraker
and Harding and Daugherty, would
have no more Of that. One might,
with impunity, do a little subvert-
ing after the best manner Of "The

Strange Behavior.
Altogether it was an exhibition
that must have opened the eyes OF
those who had the rare privilege OF
observing the strange behavior OF
Candidate Bricker. 1t was apparent
that, notwithstanding the carefully
cultivated poker faces of the. other
Republican presidential candidates
present, they all regarded Honest"
Johns display of bad manners with
both amazement and barely con-
cealed satisfaction. The Republican
Party's Bricker- -without-straw could
not have done better for his rivals,
not even If his speech had been a
joint production OF the literary
