our party shall underwrite the
expense of the Moseley meet
ings," Smith told his followers
in a confidential letter."
Moseley surprised Smith sup
porters by endorsing Republican
Presidential Candidate Thomas
E. Dewey in his speech to the
founding convention of the
Christian Nationalist Party here
a few weeks ago. The conven-
ton nominated Smith for Pres
ident.
But Smith doesn't expect too
much to come out of the 1948
campaign, which he expects
Dewey to win. He's got his eyes
on the future.
The Christian Nationalist cam
paign this, year is intended
merely ito plant the seed for
the party which will one day
capture the presidency" Smith
says. II believe that day will be
1882" he adds optimistically.
AS Smith sees it, sin the mid
die of 1949 and not later than
the middle of 1850, we shall
have terrific crash" and "the
whole thing will break open in
Mr.. Dewey's lap" spelling "the
end of the Republican Party"
'Then is when we Christian
Nationalist will have to be
ready with strong, thoroughly
disciplined, alright organiza-
ton" Smith declares. THE
right-wing Democrats and the
honest-to-God Republicans all
over the nation will be ready to
join with us"
The anti-Smith camp, he
thinks, will be led by Henry A.
Wallace, coined by the original
New Dealers"
Right now, Smith discloses,
the Christian Nationalist are
distributing more than "a mil
lion pieces of printed matter
per month" attacking liberals,
the labor movement, Negroes,
Jews, Communists, Socialists, the
Progressive Party.

meeting by joining Earl B. Dick
erson, Progressive candidate for
Congress from the 1St district,
and other nominees in leading a
great torchlight parade through
the community.
1t was estimated that some 400
or 500 people took part in the
parade, organized by Young Pro-
greSsives of Illinois. Many spec
tators stepped off the curb to
join in the demonstration.
Taylor's path crossed Wallace's
as he headed first West and then
North after leaving the South
Side meeting. Wallace spoke first
on the North Side, then went
West and later South.
At each meeting, Wallace coun-
selled his supporters on the prin-
ciples of practical politics"
Ward and precinct work is the
key to Progressive success, he
emphasized. He called for poll
watchers to event vote
stealing. He asked each Progress
sive to undertake to secure 10
additional Progressive votes
This is how the people can guar
antee that ''the Progressive Party
is here to stay he said
He warned Progressives who
live in Cook County not to write
his name on the ballot-if it is
not printed there = lest their
whole ballots be invalidated. "a
straight Progressive vote will be
a vote for me-" he said. Down
staters, however, should write in
his name and that of Sen. Taylor,
he added.
Some 1900 people heard Wal
lace speak on the North Side,
after Bernie Asbel and Pete See
gar had sung folk songs. There
Wallace contrasted bipartisan
plans to help fascist Franco
Spain with their refusal to aid
the new democracy of Israel by
granting de jure recognition, a
$40 million Export-Import Bank
loan, and revision of the Berna-
dotte proposals.
With the sirens of the police

women, nodded and whispered
together when Wallace touched

Blasting the Kennelly-Arvey

charged that they ARE in ca

He predicted that the Pro-

strongest political force in this
nation, and it is going to end
political corruption in Illinois,"
The huge armory on the South
Side was packed by 1000 or
more men, women and children
by the time Wallace arrived. The
audience was almost half and
half Negro and white. Observers
expressed surprise at the unusu-
ally large outpouring of whites
for a meeting in the Negro com

Communist Party :
Urged by Richberg

Attorney Donald H. Richbere
warned Congress today that pure
ly political strikes" of American
labor instigated by Communists are
an increasing menace" which might
be of great national moment in
time of depression"
The former head OF the National
Recovery Administration told the
House Committee on Un-American
Activities that the way to deal with
Communists is to force them into
the open by making secret political
organizations illegal.
He proposed a bill requiring all
political organizations to report
their activities, programs and dues
paying members regularly to the
State Department.
The subcommittee was to hear
Ferenc Macy, former Premier OF
Hungary, at an afternoon session.
Reputable political organizations,
Mr.. Richberg argued, "are willing
to live in glass houses" while Com
munists and Communist front
groups thrive on secrecy.
Says Secrecy Can Be Ended.
when secret political organiza-
lions menace the security of the
country, they can be outlawed to
some extent" he added. They can
be required to give UP the secrecy
which permits them to carry on
their unlawful practices"
Citing Communist-inspired strikes
designed to disturb the efficiency
of the American economy" the
attorney expressed his belief that
if the Communist program was
openly discussed, it could have no
effect on the people "even if they
are hungry"
In answer to committee questions,
Mr.. Richberg said his proposed bill
would cover the Klu Klux Khan or

or Virginia and who have large
businesses and investments in the
District would have no say in the
mourning of local Indebtedness, even
though the Government employee
who might pay no form of taxes
here would be able to vote an OBJ
legation on such businessmen's
assets"
Spokesman for Washington units
of the American Federation of Labor
and the Congress Of Industrial Or
CARNATIONS both gave solid support
to the charter bill, though recon-
mending some changes in its terms.
]. c. Turner, speaking for the
Central Labor Union of the AFL
drew audience applause when he
said, 1--WE believe all thinking Amer
leans perceive that as a Nation we
cannot in logic act the part Of cham
pion for q free world, in every quar-
ter of the globe, unless an equal
degree of freedom is granted the
citizens of voteless Washington"
Through the Central Labor Union,
thousands of disfranchised workers
here wish to convey to the joint
committee, in the strongest possible
terms, their Endorsement of the
(pending) bills.
Hope for Passage Voiced.
"For over so years the Gu has
advocated full suffrage for Wash
ington. Our deep sense OF frustra-
ton has as second-class citizens
grown with the years. We hope, be-
fore this Congress has adjourned,
home rule for the District WILDE an
actuality."
Mr.. Turner recommended that
boards of three members each, ap-
pointed by the mayor with council
approval, be named to handle mini
mum wage, workmen's compensation,
and unemployment insurance. The
bill would have advisory boards, but
would transfer administration of
these services to director of a
labor department.
The general purpose of the meas
ure was approved by the Washing
ton Industrial Union Council of
the CLIO, in testimony presented by
Mrs. Gertrude Evans, secretary. But
this group asked for number of
important changes, including adop-
ton of the proportional representa-
ton system and other means of
assuring minority representation
especially for the colored. She also
asked for provisions banning segre-
cation as to races.
