.cP Promises TO
Keep W aIIace
Party Operating

New York NPA)-On the eve
Of the first meeting Of the national
committee Of the Henry Wallace
Progressive Party since the cleo
tions, the Communist Party declar-
ed that the new group has "a bright
future" and congratulated itself
upon the role Communists played
IN the Wallace movement.
The CP position was stated in an
article called Questions and Answ-
ers on the Election" written for
last Sundays Worker by Commun-
ist Party Secretary Eugene Den
mis-.
The CP brain admitted that he
expected Dewey, not Truman, to
win the election, and that he was
surprised by the low vote cast for
the Wallace ticket. But, he declar-
ed, "at no time did we share the
utopian dreams of some"
"The Progressive Party by its
presence forced the break between
Truman and the Dixiecrats," Den
mis- claimed, but adds that the CP
and Wallace were right all the time
in saying that both Dewey and
Truman represent "Wall Street re-
action"
Altho Dennis sees Truman's re-
election as a sign of the peoples
unwillingness to accept reaction
airy regime, he predicts that the
new administration will let the
people down.
Therefore, he asserted, "the fu-
ture Of the Progressive Party is nc
less bright than was the future OF
Lincoln's new party after its first
sorry showing in 1856"
"The post election opportunities
are very great indeed" the CT
whip wrote, and then set forth the
party line for the coming months.
Here it is: 'The Progressive
Party, and the left trade unior
forces, Communist and non-COm-
Imunist, must stand boldly in the
forefront of the approaching mass
struggles-especially now with the
opening of the new Congress-anc
boldly lead in building a great un-
tied front movement and peoples
anti-war, anti-monOpoly coalition
that can increasingly influence the

course Of events, including foreign
policy"
In a passage which should dis
pei rumors that a basic CP policy
shift is in the offing, Dennis called
upon the faithful to deepen our
grasp of Marxism-Leninism" and
reinforce our struggle especially
against the reactionary theories
and practices of reformism."

VA. COURT JAILS
STRIKE LEADERS

Luray, Va, (LPA)-A Virginia
circuit court last week picked up
the NLRB's anti-mass picketing
doctrine, and used it to Jail strike
leaders.
Ike Kastrow, of Philadelphia, a
CIO organizer, and Bernard Woolis,
district representative of the Int'l
Fur & Leather Workers Union were
fined and sentenced % a years
term in Jail for violating an anti
mass picketing injunction. More
than twenty striking employees of
the Virginia Oak Tannery Co. were
given suspended sentences on the
same charges.
The IFLU, which was itself also
held guilty of contempt, has ann
ounced that it will appeal the case
to the state supreme court.

unions have not always got every
thing that they wanted, "but we
protected the best interests of the
workers and we made progress"
MacGowan closed by declaring
that the Nov. 2 election "opened
the, door" for labor to "get out of
the doghouse."
"Let u.s." he said, demonstrate
our capacity for craftsmanship and
lead this country along the paths
of industrial peace by wise intel
ligent action"

Some of the men who must feel

ent already that Thanksgiving tur-
keys will be high in price and light
in weight.
Cranberries, grapes and celery
will be plentiful.
Cranberries cooked and served
whole make a much prettier dish
than cranberry jelly. The secret of
whole candied cranberries is in
making sugar syrup with cups
Of sugar to one half cup of water
first. Drop the washed cranberries
into this boiling syrup, cover inn
mediately and simmer for II min
utes WITHOUT removing the lid.
Keep the lid on if you have to hold
it down while simmering. Then,
without removing the lid, push pan
to back of stove and let stand until
cold without disturbing. Your ber-
ries will be beautifully glazed and
whole.
If you would have turkey stuff
ing out of this world put in a cup
or two of grapes-either the small
green seedless kind, or seed the
large California grapes. Then use
no other liquid in your stufing.
The grapes will steam and keep it
moist.
Add the grapes and a half cup
of nut meats to the usual bread

celery, green pepper, poultry sea-
soning, and butter and listen to the
compliments Of your family!

Psychologists say the best time
to memorize is in the evening just
before going to bed.
Some of the new chemical cleans
ing agents do a far more efficient
Job than soap does, but there is
such a deluge of them on the mar
ket that the average person doesn't
know which to use until he has
ttried them out for himself. And
when you do find the right cleaner
for the right purpose you'll do your
cleaning job more easily and cheap
| ly than you would with soap. Now
there is a bar detergent, like a
toilet soap bar, and detergents also
come in liquids, pastes and powd-
ers.
You can take grease spots off the
rug or overstuffed furniture by rub
bing baking soda literally into the
spot. Allow to dry and remove soda
with vacuum cleaner.

If you think your new shoes are
going to rub your heel or press on
a toe guard against getting-a blist-
er by straping adhesive tape firmly
over the skin where rubbing might
cause a blister. Bhsters can come
from ill-ftting stockings as well
as from shoes.
For feet comfort, before going on
a long hike use a liberal amount OF
talcum powder inside both shoes
and stockings. But if this doesn't
work and you come home with
tired, aching feet, sit down and
read while you soak them in hot
water to which a few tablespoons
of EPSON salts have been added.

of hope mixed with sceptic-
ism among Southsiders. Most
of those interviewed thought
it was "a fine thing, but"
Of the half dozen persons
polled by The Standard few
were familiar with the declara-
ton and its 80 articles. One or
two had heard about the human
rights bill and the role of
Eleanor Roosevelt in formulat-
ing it.
Perhaps the most articulate
was Joe johnson, author of an
unpublished m n uscript on
Iynching. Said Johnson, "The
fact that this U.N. Bill of HUI
man Rights is based on the bill
submitted by the American
delegation to. the UN places a
heavy moral responsibility of
the United States government to
see to it that the disparity be-
tween the declaration provisions
and the anti-demOcratic pra c.
tees in our cOuntry-segrega-
tion, discrimination, lynching
and the propagation of racial
prejudice-should be eliminated
forthwith"

Is, 1923 were granted. The office
had no figures handy to compare
tenants petitions against de-
creases or refunds arranged.
Whether such figures are even
tabulated could not be learned.
Shogren reported to apartment
operators this week that over
1877, 900 rent hikes were granted
by his office up to Nov. l. This
Was by way of encouraging
them to use his office rather
than whacking tenants with il

Commonwealth got virtually
everything it wanted, at the ex-
pense of the taxpayer and con-
sumner.
The persistent refusal of Gov
elect Adlai Stevenson to COM
ment or intervene in the Tele-
phone Company rate case left
the impression that Stevenson
may favor an increase. Steven
son will shortly appoint the
members of the new Illinois
Commerce Commission which
goes into office in January.
Meantime, the Illinois Bell
Telephone Co. was moving ahead
in its attempt to obtain rate in
creases ranging from 33 to so
percent in Lake and Porter
counties, Indiana. The Lake
County Citizens Welfare League
protested the request, pointing
out that Illinois Bell put SIS
900, 900 into a depreciation fund
last year when that fund had
already pyramided to $3.50, OOO,-

City Council action as the I'LL

moved back to Chicago to re-
sumo hearings on the rate case.
Corporation Counsel Benjamin
Adam0wSki was to ask the Com
mission to defer any ruling I'M
til the study of the Company's
books and rate structure had
been completed. Wagner said it
would take at least a month to
finish the inquiry.
Whether the 1ame-duck ice
app in ted by Ex-Governor
Dwight Green would comply
with Adamowski's request was
doubtful. The Commission had
not even replied to an earlier
motion by spokesman for 81 Illi-
nois communities asking that its
own funds be used for the same
kind of inquiry into the phone
company books.
Still Uneasy
However, even if the delay
was granted, phone users could
still feel uneasy over the posi-
bility that their Bell bills would
go up an average of $12 a year
after the inquiry has been COM
pleted. There were two reasons
for this uneasiness:
Alderman Wagner apparently
has been designated by the City
Council to oversee the inquiry

mittee. He's the same Alderman
