Roosevelt, Jr., Assai!!

BY the Associated Press

DETROIT, Sept. 2O.-Franklin D
Roosevelt, jr., charged Senator Taft
Republican, of Ohio and Repre-
sentative Wolcott, Republican, OF
Michigan last night with delaying
the housing program and following
the interests of the real estate
lobby in Washington instead of the
American people"
The late Presidents son. vice
chairman of the Americans for
Democratic Action, spoke last night
at meeting of the Detroit chapter
of that group.
Mr.. Roosevelt declared Senator
Taft recently has refused to give
support to his own baby, the Taft
Ellender- Wagner housing bill be-
cause he would not intrust 1t to a
Democratic administration.
Representative Wolcott, chairman
Of the House Banking Committee,
was accused by Mr.. Roosevelt of
exercising virtual one-man veto
Of the measure in the House by re-
fusing to let it come before his COM
mittee.
/ Urging housewives, veterans and
labor groups to work together for a
liberal Democratic Congress-" he
asserted:
These groups will not gain their
objectives as long as they act indie
pendently. The interlocking direc-
torates are working together. We
must work together"
At the meeting and during an
earlier conference Mr.. Roosevelt
said his personal opinion and the
policy of the ADA rejected any move

Situation Now Changed.
The situation then, however, was
not quite the same as now and the
defense is not likely to be the same
The accusation then came from
certain Senate isolationists who re-
sented alleged propaganda in the
movies encouraging war with Ger
many. The first impulse of some
leaders of the picture industry was
to enter denial and undertake to
prove that there had been no such
propaganda. Will H. Hays, movie
czar at the time, prepared an elab-
crate statistical statement designed
to show that only small percent
age of the pictures could possibly be
charged with anything remotely re-
sembling propaganda.
A number of important people in
the industry felt that this was the
wrong attitude They had every
right, legal and moral, they argued,
to be against Hitler and his phil
osophy if they wanted to be and
every right to so express them
selves. They had read the clause

Truman Should Cut His Party Loose
From ALP in New York, Writer SAYS

goal Is the destruction of the Ameri-
can economic system and the pro-
motion of chaos.
The Foreign policy of this country
clashes with the Soviet policy at
practically every point. The Tru-
man doctrine and the Marshall plan
have aroused the intense hostility
CT the Russian leaders. They block
our moves toward international CO.
operation and have reduced the
United Nations to futility. The
Truman Administration has begun
proceedings to deport various in
dividual Communists in various la
Dor unions on the ground that they
belong to q group whose aim is to
destroy the American Government
through violence.
Yet. administration politicians are
trucking to Communist leaders of
the American Labor Party in order
to insure support of these 100000
Communist-controlled votes. Pub
licly, the administration is making
an anti-Communist record; private
ly, through its political strategists,
1t is in bed with the Communist
leaders of the ALP and afraid to
open its mouth about 1t.
Should Cut Loose.
1t is shocking piece of duplicity.
Mr.. Truman ought not to stand for
1t. He owes it to himself, to the
party and to the country to order
his political managers to cut loose
from the American Labor Party and
its Communist bosses, tell them to
go to hell with their 100000 votes.
This is not only the right thing
to do but the smart thing as well.
For, no matter how hard he kicks
these Communist schemers in the
face he will not lose their support.
Their party line compels them to
work within the Democratic Party
and the labor unions. They can't 90
Republican and they can't go third
party, as that would insure Repub-
lican victory, which is the last thing
they want. So, it would cost the
Truman ticket nothing to change
from trucking to denunciation.
That at least would make it posi-
BILE for Democrats to regain their
self respect.

This Changing g World
Vishinsky's Speech Before u. N Likened
To Hitlers at Nuremberg in 1893

These men need some ammunition
such as that provided them by
Mr.. Vishinsky's tirade-to help their
activities. There is, too, no doubt
that Communist newspapers an6
radio commentators all over the
world will be inspired by Mr.. Vishin-
sky's theme that America Is out
for economic domination of the
world and refuses to disarm.
The former prosecutor of the So
Wet Union, who succeeded in exc
cutting all the top-ranking Com
munists of the Lenin school, has
turned his talents to the diplomatic
! field and accused nine Americans
some completely unknown to the
public-of warmongering. He would
give several years OF his life if he
could get them to Moscow and ex-
tract from them confessions" by
the best approved NKVD methods.
Dulles Chief Target.
The chief target of Mr.. Vishin-
sky's ire was John Foster Dulles,
whom the Soviet representative de-
scribed as one of the chief war
mongers and criminals. Mr.. Dulles,
however, is a man of peace. A few
days before the meeting of the Gen.
eral Assembly he became worried
lest the State Department decide to
press Greece's effort to apply
Article, 81 of the Charter to enable
this country to protect the Balkan
kingdom from Soviet aggression
This could mean the sending of a
token American force to Greece.
Friends of Mr.. Dulles reveal now
that he went to Washington and in
formed the government that he
would resign from the American
delegation to the U. N. if the State
Department actually intended to get
an American force into Greece.
Mr.. Dulles, as head of a law firm
which has many capitalistic clients,
is regarded as a reactionary by the
Russians and as a potential Secre-
tary of State If the Republicans win
the next election. Hence, he had to
be smeared formally from the rost-
rum of the Assembly.
Assurances that Russia wants to
play the role of the dove of peace
are not taken seriously by top-rank-
ing American officials. They believe
that the USSR wants to avoid a
showdown for the time being. She
wants to be fully prepared against
an antagonist of such potential
power as the United States.
MoscoW's aim now is to place as
many countries as possible behind
the iron curtain without going to
war with America. To achieve this
she must use her satellites In Europe
and the Far East and cover their
activities with the claim, that they
are supporting democratic govern
ments against fascism.
The consensus of our highest OBJ
servers is that If we act to frustrate
Russia's plans effectively she will
not hesitate to use her enormous
military forces.

the industry's response to the Sen
ate committee should be, In effect
"Yes, we have made some anti
Hitler pictures. So what?"
This view prevailed and Wendell
Willkie was engaged to present it.
Before Mr.. Willkie got through the
Senate committee had received a
liberal education in the matter of
civil rights. The motion picture in
dustry continued making pictures
offensive to Hitler's friends.
This time the charge is that some
Hollywood. pictures reveal Com
munist influences" A statement
made by Mr.. McNutt indicates that
the industry will not take the same
line as that OF 1941. 1t is not likely
to argue its right to make COM
munistic pictures If 1t wants TO-
Before a court of law 1t might dc
so, having in mind that no law pre-
vents the Communists from pub
fishing the Daily Worker and other
papers. Before a congressional
committeeman the court of public
opinion-however, the picture peo-
pie probably would find that argu-
ment singularly futile
Summed Up in Sentence.
The line they will take therefore
seems to be summed up in a SEN
tence by Mr.. McNutt. THE indus
try" he said, docs not attempt to
defend, shield or whitewash the
communistic activities of any person
and welcomes the exposure of Com
munists wherever they are to be
found in America"
On another phase Of the inquiry
he said something important. The
Un-American Committees "evi-
dence" to date has been composed
chiefly of mysterious allegations
concerning the personal beliefs of
certain men and women who work
in Hollywood. The inference is
that they get their ideas into the
pictures. AS to this, Mr.. McNutt
said:
The proof is in the pictures
themselves. The producers are re-
sponsible for the content of those
pictures. The producers accept that
responsibility"
If Mr.. McNutt can make the
House committee see this, maybe
the committee will quit wasting the
peoples money on these Hollywood
joyrides. Maybe

particulars filling many pages with
evidence of Russias warmongering
For instance, the charge thai
America refuses to promote dis
armament could be answered with
a few cold figures. The Russian all
force consists of $4,000 flrst-line
planes and 10000 stored reserves
The United States possesses only
1900 f1rst-line planes and less than
1000 stored reserves. The Russians
building program for 1947-48 calls
for 65, 900 new aircraft. The Ameri-
can calls for only 1,480.
The Russian ground forces are
conservatively estimated at about
300 divisions in full strength sta
toned in areas from the Elbe River
to Siberia and Korea. The United
States has two infantry divisions
and four Marine combat divisions
in this country and not more than
six full-strength divisions in Europe
and the Far East.
Figures Tell Story.
These figures tell the disarma-
ment story far more convincingly
than all the recriminations of the
Soviet deputy foreign minister
Russia's satellites-Poland and Yu-
seslavia-today have q respectable
armed force which is larger than
that of the United States.
Moreover, while American in
dustry has been reconverted to
serve the peace needs of the world
Soviet industry places the accent
on manufacture of materials for
the armed forces. These are facts
which the Russian government
cannot deny.
MIR. Vishinsky's speech is regarded
by top-ranking American officials
as intended for European consump-
ton. Moscow's puppets in Italy and
France are making strenuous efforts
to overthrow those governments
which refuse to accept Russian dom
ination and rely on America to bar
the offensive by the Communist
leaders. Maurice Thorez and Pal

fully manages to operate upon its
present lines a record in public de-
ception will have been made. Refer
ence here is not only to the Truman
alliance with the CIO and the T'ru-
man veto, under CIO pressure, of
the Taft-Hartley bill, though a
majority of the Democrats in Con-
gress voted to override the Truman
veto and a majority of his own
Democratic cabinet urged Mr.. Tru-
man to sign it.
Irreconcilable as is the party di-
vision involved in this, there is
another situation which is more
offensive to independent Democrats
and of more serious import to the
Nation. This is the degree to which
Democratic management is now
bound up with the Communists
That is a serious charge but it can
be proved.
Lot Is Cast With CLIO.
Here are the facts-Fact No. l
the Truman administration has
cast it's lot in with the CIO. Ad-
ministration politicians and the
Democratic Party management are
working hand in glove with the
CIO political managers. No one
disputes that.
Fact No. 2-The CIO leaders are
closely linked with the American
Labor Party in New York On Sep
tember 4, at Albany, after bitter
denunciation by various CIO leaders
of the ALP as dominated by Com
munists, the State CIO convention
overwhelmingly decided to cooper
ate with and support the ALP in
le48. This is matter of record
Fact No. 3-The American Labor
Party is notoriously Communist-con-
trolled ana directed. That has been
charged hundreds of times and
never denied. 1t is a matter OF
record. This Communist domina-
ton was the reason for the split in
the ALP some years ago and the
formation of the Liberal Party by
those who could no longer stand
that domination.
Fact No. 4-The Communist
controlled American Labor Party
polled 100000 votes in 1944-all Of
them for Roosevelt, who carried
the State by only $4,000. At the
: September 4 meeting, one ALI
leader asserted that the ALP wou.c
poll next year 100000 votes. But
if it only polls 100000 it is cleal
that without that vote the Demo.
cratic ticket will have no chance
of carrying New York, the indi.
spensable State That is why the
C1O and the Democratic nationa
managers play ball so closely with
the Communist-controlled ALP.
Link to Moscow Seen.
Not one of these four basic facts
can be denied. To repeat-ths

hooked up with the CIO; the CIO il

can Labor Party is controlled by
