The Democrats expect to pick up
some House seats in districts which

Dewey Falsely Ca||et
Foe Of Civil Service,
Republicans Charge
BY the Assocsofsd Press

The Republican National Com
mittee yesterday accused the Dem
ocratic National Committee of dis
tributing a falsified document to
portray Gov. Dewey as a foe of civil
service.
The Democratic National Com
mittee then issued a statement in
which the signer of the document
denied that it was falsified.
The disputed document quoted
the COP presidential nominee as
telling members of the Brooklyn
council Of the Veterans of Foreign
Wars that all civil service employees
are mediocre at their best" and as
saying:
If I had my way Id abolish the
civil service"
Gov. Dewey was alleged to have
made the remarks last February in
discussing the VFW legislative pro-
gram in his Albany Office. A num-

Democratic headquarters said in
a statement October 16 that an
Official report" on Gov. Dewey's
purported remarks was made to
the vFW Brooklyn Council and
proved" that Gov. Dewey did make
the derogatory comment on civil
service workers.
The report was signed by Maj.
James j.. Mackin. chairman of the
Councils Legislative Committee,
who said he was present at the Al
bany meeting. The Democratic
Committee also issued Photographic
copies Of Maj. Mackin's alleged re-
port.

The Republicans, on the other
hand, have chances to win Demo-
cratic seats in the 18th and 18th
districts, in Brooklyn. The proba-
bilities are that when the score is
all in the Republicans will have
lost one or two seats in the give and

The Councils letter, signed b,

cation and adoption and was not
even filed in the Councils records.
The statement further disowned

ings of unauthorized persons"
Republican Statement.
Republican headquarters said in
yesterdays statement:
The Brooklyn council letter
stamps the photostatic copy as false

ton on the Mackin report purport-
ing to show that it was accepted

Control Of Congress
Bv ]. A. OleoN

Election of the Dewey-Warren
ticket by a 4-to-1 ratio of electoral
votes was the prediction of Herbert
Brownell. jr, Republican campaign
manager, as he bade farewell to his
headquarters here today and head
ed back to New York.
Exuding confidence, Mr.. Brownell
also made a fiat forecast Of a Re-
publican Congress. He estimated
the COP will add between II and 20
new seats to the 246 it holds in the
present House and will keep control
of the Senate by at least the present
margin Of 81 to IS.
The genial, efficient young law
yer, who has helped Gov. Dewey
through all of his political battles,
said he based his prophesies on a
telephone checkup with Republican
officials in AZ States in the last
two days.
Declines to Name-States.
Mr.. Brownell gives President Tru-
man not more than four States OUT
side of the South and said he ex-
poets Gov. Dewey to, carry "one or
more" in Dixie.
He declined to name the States
he thinks each candidate will carry.
The nearest he came to it was to
say the South will be split three
ways-among Dewey, Truman and
Thurmond Governor Of South Car
olina and the States Rights nomi-
nee).
Mr.. Brownell told his last Wash
ington press conference he expects
the popular vote to be about 10 per
cent above 1914 OF around $4,000, 900.
and predicted Gov. Dewey would
poll a popular majority in excess of
100000.
AS the Republican campaign
manager packed his bags to be with
Gov. Dewey in New York for the
windup, observers here were cor
vinced Mr.. Brownell has no ambi-
ton to enter the Government serv-
ice.
Lease on House Expiring.
A correspondent jokingly told Mr..
Brownel his neighbors in Mclean,
Va, where he has been living dur
ing the campaign, are saying he
rented the house on month-to-
month basis, but has four-year
option on it.
I'm leaving Washington tomor-
row and the lease expires Eovem-
Der 49," Mr.. Brownell said with a
smile. I'm packing my trunks to
be with Gov. Dewey in Madison
Square Garden. where he will Geliv-
er one of the most important
speeches of the campaign tomorrow
night"
But you haven't answered the
question about the lease the re-
porter prodded.
II 90 not have an option for four
years and I expect to be back at my
Office tin New York; after a little
rest" he responded.
1t is entirely possible, however
Gov. Dewey may try to prevail on
Mr.. Brownell to join his official
family, If he wins the election. The
two men have been close personal
friends for more than 20 years.

right on the edge of so per cent Of
the total vote. Republican leaders
are confident that their candidate
will exceed so per cent and win by
O majority vote. -.
Four years ago. Mr. Thomas re-
ceived about 10000 votes. Here is
another problem today. In some
informed quarters it is predicted
the Socialist candidate may have
more than $4,000 votes-from many
who seek to register a protest and
do not care for either Gov. Dewey,
President Truman or Mr.. Wallace.
Jews Being Won Back.
New York has a very large Jewish
vote This was given almost en-
tirely to the late President Roose-
velt-but because of the backing
and filing of President Truman and
his administration on the Palestine
question, many of these voters
turned against Mr.. Truman. This
is the particular worry of the Demo-
Gratis today. They contend the
Presidents more recent statements
regarding Palestine are bringing the
Jews back to the fold.
In this connection, however, a
statement issued yesterday by Rabbi
Abba Hillel Silver. president of the
American Zionist Emergency Coun-
Gil, gives a distinct impression that
a considerable Jewish vote may be
expected for Gov. Dewey. His
statement was made in a telegram
to the COP candidate and said in
part:
May thank you for the splendid
statement on Israel which you is
sued Friday, October az. Your
reaffirmation of wholehearted sup
port of the Palestine plank In
the Republican platform, which
pledged to Israel full recognition,
with its boundaries as sanctioned by
the United Nations and aid in
developing its economy is most
heartening, and is completely in
accord with the sympathetic and
cooperative attitude which I know
you have always evidenced to the
cause of establishment of the
Jewish state.
Sees No Partisanship.
"Any suggestion that your most
recent declaration on Israel is a
partisan political maneuver inject
at the last moment in the campaign
tsuch a charge was made by Presi-
dent Truman against Gov. Dewey
has no basis in fact"
After declaring that the Palestine
issue Is not a partisan issue in the
campaign. since both national par
ties indorse the State of Israel,
Rabbi Silver added significantly:
That you spoke up at a time
when others we're silent Is a tribute
to your sincerity and fortnight
ness"
So many reports of voter indiffer-
ence have reached Republican head
quarters that the organization is
now engaged in an intensive drive
to get the people to the polls. What
the Republicans fear is that many
OF their supporters, believing the
election is in the bag, may neglect
to vote.

have one last urgent appeal that
 I would like to make to all the
 delegates and to all affiliated local unions and that is to make sure that every officer cooperates with Connecticut Labor'S League for Po- litical Education. We have two
 main objectives. One, to make sure tat all of our members and their families are eligible to vote. Two, that they will vote on Election Day. This can be accomplished by the cooperation of all officers of all
 local unions. We need the com plete cooperation of everyone if
 we are going to do this job and do it properly.
 I wish tc take this opportunity to thank Tin Collins, Larry O'Toole, all of the officers of the Connecti-
 cut Federation of Labor. the office
 staff and all O. the persons who have helped to make the Connecti- cut Federation of Labor success
 during the past year.

nored. The Der artment of Labor was reduced to an ignoble and in- effective government agency. Ef- forts to provide a permanent F. E.. P. C., an anti-lynch law, and an an- ti-poll tax law were sabotaged. A bill to provide 300 million year as grants to States to provide mini- mum educational program for every child was pidgeonholed in the House. Bills for medical aid and health insurance did not even leave the Senate Committee on La Dor. AS finally passed by Congress the measure to admit 100000 dis placed persons from Europe dis criminated grossly and unjustly against the Catholics and the Jews.
 If there is to be no repetition of the 80th Congress record, organized labor must take an active interest in the 1948 national, state and local elections. The 15 million members of organized labor and their fam lilies and their friends must exer- else their democratic right and ob- ligation to regain the rights which the Congress and various State Legislatures have taken from them. Labor can and must make itself felt in the coming general election.
 Central Labor Unions
 In my report at the 1947 Conven- ton of the Connecticut Federation of Labor, I stated that in order o have a strong State Federation of Labor, it was necessary to have equally effective central labor unions. I am sorry to report that from what I can observe, our cen- tral labor unions have not been strengthened since last year. It is my humble opinion that we must do everything in our power to build up our central labor unions if we expect to be strong force in our various communities. l say without fear of contradiction that all local union officers who do not see to it that they have delegates from their local unions in attend ance at central labor union meet ings are derelict in their duty. The strength of our labor movement lies in our Central Labor Unions. It may well be that certain officers of local unions for some reason or another do not wish to affiliate with or send delegates to central la Dor unions. This is a gross mistake. There is no valid excuse. Every A. F. of l.. local union in Connecti- cut should become a part of the central labor union in its respective area. For that reason and others. the Executive Board of the Con- necticut Federation of Labor Is bringing in a recommendation that there will be a vice-president from each central labor union area in Connecticut. hope that If this amendment to the Constitution goes through, the particular officers elected will do everything in their power to build up the strength of the Central Labor Union in their phrticnlar area.
