away the gains labor achieved
in past years.
The victory for the Demo
cratic party can best be des-
cribed by J. Howard McGrath
Democratic National Chairman
who is making the acceptance
speech on the Tuesday election
victory stated, thanks to Amer
lean Labor for making this vic
tory possible"
Labor clearly demonstrated
their objections to the reaction
ary 8Oth Congress and the Taft
Hartley Law by turning out en-
masse to vote at the election to
give the D mocr IS a huge
victory.
Labor also was impressed by
a fighting president who covered
all corners of the nation in
bringing his fight with the 90th
Congress to the people of the
nation. 1t was the fighting presi-
dent coming out with both fists
swinging to tell the people about
law makers who instead Of rep
resenting the majority are rep
resenting a priviledged few. To-
day most of them will be listed
as Ex-Congressmen.
On Wednesday morning there
were many red-faced people and
heading the list are radio COM
mentators, newspaper editorial
writer's and movie stars who
predicted an easy victory for
Republican Presidential candl-
date Governor Dewey.
The commentators and edi-
torial writer's along with the
movie stars are now convinced
that labor can not be bluffed.
They also learned that once
labor is arounsed they come out
fighting, not with fist but more
reliable weapon - the votes at
the polls.
President Trum a n took an
early lead when the b | OF
counting began and never re-
linquished that lead. His victory
was assured when Ohio, classed
as a sure Republican State took
an about face and favored Tru-
man for the next President OF
the United States.
Today there are many sorry
faces and leading the list are
many Republicans

ment, who were undaunted by
the vicious personal attack made
upon me and worked tirelessly
for the ultimate success in this
campaign, wish to offer my sim
cerest thanks. 1t is not easy, ]
know, to bear up under such a
vicious campaign, especially
when you realize that those who
support you may have some of
the mud Spattered on them SIM
ply because they are supporting
you. Therefore, l have the great
est admiration for those who
supported me through the thick
est of this rough and tough cam
paign and never Wavered in their

All of you who supported me
were aware of my reputation
for fair dealing in my public life
for the benefit of all people,
whether they be labor, profes-
sional, domestic, agricultural,
business or any other walk of
life. BY holding to that knowl-
edge and continuing the support

your trust and support"
Sincerely yours,

Toledo union journal. [volume] (Toledo, Ohio) 1942-current, 1948-11-05

H. Burke is one of them and
will work with other candi-
dates friendly to labor, he
said.
Following is a statement
Mr.. Gosser issued after the ell
ton.
"In behalf of labor, I would
like to express our sincere thanks
for the complete cooperation
that was given during the en-
stire campaign for all of the Ia
Dor candidates. With unity such
as this, the progress of the Am
erican workers is bound to in
evitably bring us to a fuller
share of life.
MY personal feeling about the
results of the election is that the
American people have spoken
and issued a mandate to the
Democratic party. l only hope
that the Democratic party. ac-
cepts this great victory of the
American people in the light
that they are definitely deter
mined high prices must come
down so it is possible for them
to buy a greater share of the
wealth they produce. Further, IN
my opinion, they want a COM
clete change in their social life
regards to a greater unem-
ployment insurance, a greater
sick and health benefit, and a
greater retirement benefit. This
would be enlarging the Social
Security program for greater
benefits for all and reduce the
age limit
"It seems to me that the Am
erican people have spoken and
it is the responsibility of the
Democratic party to take the
shackles of the Taft Hartley Act
off labor and free it as a free
trade labor movement in a free
world"

NEW YORK LPA)-It looks

The union has been working
hard to devise formula for

win both employer and govern

cording companies agreed to join
with the union in submitting to
Justice Department lawyers a

TOTEM IMPO STER

The Honorable Roy P. Cor

mas Municipal Council, cabled
President Truman in connec-
ton with a letter sent by Ash
ley Totten, President of the
American Virgin Islands Civic
Association, regarding the re-
election of all members of the
Council.
Mr.. Gordon said that the
people resent the "wilful and
malicious lies by Totten.
Statements by the AVICA
president were branded as en-
tirely false and an insult to
the intelligence Of the people
of these islands.
The campaign had nothing
whatever to do with either the
Republican or Democratic
parties and was fought on To-
cal issues only. He said furth-
er that MI. Totten represents
no one, officially or unofficial
ly, in these islands and that
his acting as an imposter has
become disgusting to the peo-
pie of the Virgin Islands, due
to his continuous lies and mis-
representations concerning
conditions.
