Progressives Showed
Might as Influence
Party, Wallace Says
By the Asseciotsd Press

CHICAGO, Nov. 13.--Henry A.
Wallace declared today that in the
last election his Progressive Party
had shown its might as an in
fluence party"
At a meeting of party leaders he
called for continued third party
pressure" in future city, State and
National voting.
C. B. Baldwin of New York, party
secretary, said the Progressives
lob is to become the organizer and
sparkplug of the fight of the people
for the things they have been
promised" by the Democrats.
More than 200 party leaders from
nearly all states met behind closed
doors with Mr.. Wallace, their Pres
idential nominee. to plot their fu-
ture political course.
Wallace Urges Pressure.
Mr.. Wallace advised them to use
pressure in state legislatures, dig
up money to pay for extensive radio
propaganda, conduct political action
schools, elect Progressives to Con-
gress in 1850, and give President
Truman Gin his own right" chance
to show whether he will change
the cold war policy"
Mr.. Wallace said he has "just
begun to fight" and the party is
far more important right now than
1t ever was" He declared the party
has shown its might as an in
fiuence party"
Expanding on this conception of
the Progressives' role In the No
vember election and the defeat
Of Republicans, Mr.. Baldwin said
in a speech:
THE Progressives forced the
Democrats to promise the people a
return to the New Deal"

Ching Resignation Possible.
The Cancellation Service has Jared
well under the direction of Cyrus
S. Ching, the man President Tru-
man persuaded to give up a vice
presidency with the United States
Rubber Co. to come to Washington.
All sides agree that Mr.. Ching has
organized well and has operated his
agency in q highly successful and
efficient way.
Mr.. Ching is highly respected by
both labor and management. He is
regarded as the type of influential
man who in case of big labor dis
pute can contact either a corpora
tion or union president, call him by
his first name and set about set
Ting the difficulty.
1t is understood that Mr.. Ching
would resign if his agency loses its
independent status and is tackled
on to the Labor Department.
NLRB Takes Similar Stand,
Officials of the NLRB feel equally
as strongly in this case. Mr..
Tobin's department is regarded as
the advocate Of the worker and of
organized labor. 1t is felt that both
the board and Mr.. Chings agency
would lose their effectiveness if
transferred because each would lose
the confidence of employers, half
of the labor-management team.
However, the big unions really
are exerting pressure to have all
independent agencies placed under
Mr Tobin.
For the past several years the La
Dor Department has been exceeding
ly jealous of the operations of Mr..
Steelman in the labor field. Before
the President made Mr.. Steelman
his assistant. he was the highly
successful head of the Cancellation
Service when 1t was part of the
Labor Department.
1t was natural that after Mr..
Steelman moved into the White
House that large number of big
labor problems would move that
way.
But Mr.. Tobin is expected to de-
mand early that the President define
his powers and those of Mr.. Steel
man.

lace who set the paee-President
Truman more and more was forced
to shape his bid for votes by the
standard Henry Wallace set.
The most significant thing about
the election, Mr.. Baldwin added,
was the large number Of voters who
stayed at home. He said. they
failed to vote Progressive because
they feared a Dewey victory"
To those Progressives contending
that "the Red issue" cut down the
third party's vote, Mr.. Wallace sale: :
Il personally think - we have
come out stronger from a long run
point of view by standing on prin-
ciple instead of retreating before
the Red smear. 1t Is not the pur-
pose of the Progressive Party to
apologize for Russia. Peace-not
Russia-is the dominant issue in
the eyes OF. us Progressives."

Station, but the list was exhausted
the night before the Inauguration.
The Pennsylvania and Baltimore
& Ohio railroads helped by parking
"a sleeping cars on sidings here to
help accommodate the overflow
crowd.
Arrangements will have to be
made to revise routings Of the Capt.
tai Transit Co. and other public
transportation companies in the
Washington area for the parade.
1t is regarded as certain that the
1949 inaugural parade will follow
the same route traversed by Presi-
dent Truman when he returned
to Washington November after
his dramatic election victory. Presi-
dent Roosevelt followed the same
classic route in 1941, leaving the
Capitol grounds at l:45 pm, pro-
ceeding down Constitution avenue
to Pennsylvania avenue, turning
one block north on Fifteenth street
and thence on Pennsylvania avenue
WCct W tllC NliICC 41OacS.
Platforms to Be Removed.
Another headache in connection
with the ceremony will be the neces-
sity for removing raised streetcar
loading platforms from along the
parade route to make way for the
passage of troop units that partici-
pate.
Arrangements also must be made
for turning out the 1900 District
policemen and firemen that will be
needed for duty at the Capitol
Grounds and along the parade
route. Some of the police and fire
department must be left on duty
in other parts of the city.
This force will be augmented by
the Secret Service and an estimated
800 policemen from New York and
other Eastern cities. The other cities
traditionally send units of police
here to help the Washington force
handle the tremendous crowds.
Large units of soldiers, sailors,
marines and coast guardsmen also
will be brought here, 1t Is believed,
to lend color to the ceremony. Work
already is underway on the plat
form on the Capitol steps where
Chief Justice Vinson will administer
the oath to President Truman.
Many Details to be Arranged.
The committee will have to ar
range for first aid stations, informa-
ton booths, public comfort stations
and a hundred other details.

Eighty first Congress with Democra-

The year-end session grew out of
the prolonged political combat be-

Republican leaders wanted to be
able to call Congress back into ses-
