Gov. Thurmond Hits
FEPC Act as He Ends
Virginia Campaign
By John V. Homer
Ster Stoff Correspondent

NCHB BURG, Va, Oct. 13.-
Optimistic about his prospects of
winning Virginia's II electoral votes,
Gov. Thurmond, States Rights
candidate for President, has shifted
his campaign to Kentucky.
The South Carolina Governor left
Lynchnurg by plane yesterday with
Mrs. Thurmond for speeches in
Lexington, Louisville and Conving-
ton, KY, after making 80 talks in
the Old Dominion within a week.
His final Virginia engagement was
at Randolph-Macon Woman's Col
lege here yesterday.
Gov. Thurmond attacked the
Federal Fair Employment Practices
Act. advocated, as he said "by Presi-
dent Truman"
He termed the law the original
Russian law and B" Communist
inspired"
Gov. Thurmond said: "The clouds
of war hang heavy over this country
now, and I don't believe the people
of America want, to help Stain de-
stroy America. :. The FEPC bill
is the most dangerous piece of legis-
lation the mind of man has ever
conceived. It would prevent man
from hiring or firing, promoting or
demoting, any inividual employed
by him. This law would destroy
private business.
He also charged that the FEPC
bill would be used by Communists
to obtain secret information:''
In a question-a -and-ansWer period
after Gov. Thurmond had addressed
them and had lunch as their guest,
the girls sought more information
regarding the candidates views on
foreign affairs and domestic prob
lens.
You've told us about the States
Rights view," student said to Gov.
Thurmond, what about policy in
other fields, foreign policy for exam
ple?"
Urges Firmness With Russia.
II have said in several speeches" "
Gov. Thurmond replied, that I IA
vor strong bipartisan policy such
as we now have. We must be firm
with Russia"
The college appearance was the
second in Lynchburg. Monday night
Gov. Thurmond spoke to public
rally in the City Armory which
stirred up enough interest to cause
some of the leading Democratic
politicians to predict victory for him

Last season, during the intermission

the commissioner if he mightn't

notice of such obvious footlight filth.
The commissioner said no, and

One of the first postwar foreign

resistance drama made in Italy.

"Open City" ran almost two years
at a little theater just off Broad

neighborhood houses.
Among other successes distribu-
tors listed are:
"Volpone,' French film which
has played almost three months on
Broadway Soon to be released

already has crossed around $500,000
