The people's voice. [volume] (Helena, Mont.) 1939-1969, 1948-01-09

in America, ground on a fOun-
dation of world peace and Sc
curity.
Everything in the United States to-
day, among farmers, workers, small
business men and professional men
and women, | find confusion, uncer-
tainty and fear. The people do not
ask, "Will there be another WARP
but when will the war Gomez"
ADMINISTRATIONS FAILURE :.
Everywhere I find that people are
spending so much for food and rent
that they can't afford their customary
services from the doctor and dentist.
They do not ask, "Will there be an
other depression ?"-but when will
the depression start?"
Peace and abundance means so
much to me that I have said at
dozen press conferences and in many
speeches when asked about third
party "If the Democratic party con-
tinues to be party of war and de-
preston, | will see to it that the
people have chance to vote for peace
and prosperity" To those who have
come to me asking the conditions of
my adherence to the present Demo
cratic administration, | have said,
Let the administration repudiate uni
versal military training and rid itself
of the Wall Street-military team that
is leading us toward war"
THIRD PARTIES IN THE PAST -.
| have insisted that the Democratic
administration curb the ever growing
power and profits and monopoly and
take concrete steps to preserve the liv-
ing standards of the American people.
/ have demanded that the Democratic
administration cease its attacks on the
civil liberties of Americans. In
speeches in the north and in the
South at non-segregated meetings l
have stated the simple truth that seq
ragation and discrimination of any
kind or character have no place in
America.
My terms to the Democratic high
command have been we'll known. By
their actions and finally by their words |
they have said-"Henry Wallace, we
welcome your support but we will not |
change our policies"
In answering me, the Democratic |
leadership also gave it's answer to mil
lions of American who demand the |
right to vote for peace and prosperity.
thus, the leadership of the Democratic
party would deprive the American peo-
pie of their rightful opportunity to
choose between progress and reaction
party is concerned there is no hope
AS George Norris, Fiorello La Guar
dia, and Wendell Willkie long ago I
found out
When the old parties rot, the peo-
pie have a right to be heard through
q new party. They asserted that right
when the Democratic party was
founded under Jefferson in the strug
gle against the Federalist party of
war and privilege of his day. They
won it again when the Republican
party was organized in Lincoln's time !
The people must again have an OPP ,
portunity to speak out with their
votes in 1913.
TO LUkEWARM LIBERALS ... l
The lukewarm liberals sitting on /
.wo chairs say why throw away {
your vote?' l say a vote for a new s
party in 194S will be the most valua- {
de vote you have ever cast or ever
will cast. The bigger the peace vote t
n 194S, the more definitely the world +
will know that the United States is /
lot behind the bipartisan reactionary i
var policy which is dividing the world
nto two armed camps and making 6
Inevitable the day when American 6
oldiers will be lying in their arctic
uits in the Russian snow.
There is no real fight between )
Truman and a Republican. Both :
tand for a policy which opens the :
DOR to war in our lifetime and makes :
var certain for our children
Let us stop saying, 81 don't like
but | am going to vote for the lesser v
f two evils" r
