The law groups committee on
candidates, headed by Floyd E.
Thompson, declared that "the Chi
cago Bar Association does now
condemn-and at all times has
conference.-the practice of party
bosses dividing judicial positions
among themselves as party spoils
and appointing personal favorites
to fill these positions" 4
At the same time Thompson
announced that a thorough inves-
tigation by the committee had
proved that charges that the Pro-
gressive Party was Communist
inspired" were lies fabricated by
the machine politicians.
THOMPSON said that the COM
mittee's only criticism of any Pro-
gressive Party candidates was that
it considered some of them too
inexperienced" in the practice of

The Progressive Party candi-

 Marshall's address evidently marked the opening of an Ameri- can diplomatic offensive against Russia in the United Nations and stressed the new American policy that when Russia hamstrings the security council with veto votes the general assembly must take over.
 For that purpose he would have the assembly's proposed security committee in constant session, and would give it membership of 55 members like the assembly itself
