Campbell Proposals
Scored by Opponents
In Virginia Speeches
BY the kssocioted Press

In the heaviest verbal barrage
Of the general election campaign,
10 Virginia individuals or groups
had their say last night on the
controversial Campbell suffrage
amendments. The box score
showed seven against, two neutral
and one in favor.
Leading the "antis" was Francis
Pickens Miller, runner-up to John
s. Battle for Governor in the
August Demomcratic primary.
Speaking in Williamsburg, he
termed the amendments "phony"
proposals whose aim is creating
and maintaining government of
the few in place OF representative
democracy"
"The elimination Of the poll tax
is not the main purpose of the
proposed amendments" declared
Mr.. Miller, who said it was difficult
for him to oppose the proposals
because he long has favored aboli-
ton of the poll tax as prerequisite
to voting.
Their (the amendments main
purpose is to place the determina-
tion OF your right to vote in the
hands of the Legislature instead
of putting the guarantee of that
right in the Constitution ITSELF"
Mr.. Miller asserted.
Wise Opposes Amendments.
The most surprising move of
the night, however, was that of
Maj. Henry A. Wise, former
Republican national committee
man for Virginia who supported
Mr.. Battle in the primary.
In a radio address in Richmond
Maj. Wise urged the election of
Republican Walter johnson as
governor and called for defeat OF
the Campbell amendments, which
he said were conceived in sin
and born in iniquity."
Maj. Wise said he supported
Mr.. Battle in the primary, where
there was no Republican opposi-
tion, because he felt he should
help "repel the interference of
outsiders (non-Virginia union
leaders, in what was a purely
domestic situation"
Now, however, he was prepared
to repudiate Mr.. Battle as a
Democratic nominee, and he listed
as one of his major targets "the
machine, Byrd or otherwise, that
has mismanaged this common
wealth"
Negroes in Opposition.
The amendments were called "a
riddle wrapped in an enigma" by
former Richmond Delegate Beech
er e. Stallard in a Richmond
speech in which he urged that the
proposals be rejected. He said:
1T is questionable whether the
legislature when it adopted the
proposed amendments was a STU
dent Of Gertrude Stein or Hou-
dini."
DR.. j. M. Tinsley, Of the Ma
tional Association, for the Adj
vancement Of Colored People, said
the Negro Baptist Ministers Con-
ference had put itself on record
against the changes and had voted
to devote three minutes at its
morning services ito explain to
the people the reason why every
citizen should vote against the
amendments.

Now Is The Time!
By RUTH TAYLOR

T'HE EDITORIAL pages of every newspaper,
- the commentators whose voices ring out
over the radio all proclaim the same thing
that the really crucial problem today is La
bor-Management relations In short-Manage-
ment and Labor must get together.
Prejudice or bias for one side or another
often colors this clamor, but it still rises from
both sides-and, far more important to both,
from the great middle ground of the public,
who are tired Of the strife and are keenly
conscious OF their own danger il an agreement
is not reached.
In this outcry for better understanding lies
the golden opportunity for those who are hon
estly and sincerely trying to bring about bet
ter industrial relations. With the attention of
all people focused on this subject, there Is OPP
portuntty for the forceful and accurate pres
entation of ALL the facts No attempt of self
ish interests to accomplish their own ends can
succeed under steady public scrutiny There
fore, there is today real opportunity for a
fair and equable settlement of long-ra in
dustrial disputes
To arrive at this solution both Manage
ment and Labor must consider the problems
concerned, not only from their own view
point but from the viewpoint of each other
The facts must all be put on the table and the
arguments for each side given not in heat and
anger, but with full knowledge and considera-
ton of their-and our--common problems
once they have arrived at the facts, then
is the opportunity for a permanent solution.
Both sides will have to be ready to give up
something for the common good for only
when there is a real feeling of partnership
can there be a relationship that will endure
This does not mean setting wages or hours on
a permanent baSiS-but il does mean working
out system by which all disputes can be
settled amicably and fairly. Surely both sides
have brains enough to work out such sys-
tenn. All that is needed is the desire to do So
Sincere leaders of both Labor and Manage
ment have gone on record as to their wish for
such settlement. They are the articulate
representatives of the great mass of people
throughout the length and breadth of this
land. If public opinion were marshalled back
OF them in this effort the day of peace in
industrial relations would be far closer at
hand. But they must have the support of
every earnest and sincere citizen who wants
fsir play for all and who puts the good of the
community before partisan prejudice.

We Predict Thcf

A T THIS season it's not unusual for
"A those who study trends to make pre-
dictions about what the coming year will
bring.
The mood is upon us, too, so we're
going to stick our neck out (but not far
because we're on reasonably safe ground
Our prediction is that by the end Of
1850 the Commies will almost completely
be on the outside of the labor movement
looking in-and trying to get back in.
Our forecast is based on our knowl-
edge of the temper of the labor move
ment and on what's been happening to
the United Electrical Workers.
The average guy or gal who works
In plant or mill has about as much use
for todays brand of communism as he or
she does for a case of scarlet fever.
That's made evident whenever the
rank and file has an opportunity to vote
on a clear cut Commie-anti-C o m m e
issue.
Let's use the UE an an example.
When this union was booted out of the
CIO for following the Connie line and
flouting CIO policy the IUE-CIO was Just
a blueprint.
Now - less than two months later
the IUE is a sizeable, functioning union
despite all the stumbling blocks put in
its path by the UE.
The swing to IUE didn't occur so
quickly merely because members thought
the officers of the new union were nice
fellows who parted their hair in the right
place. They swung over because they
were fed up with the party lineism of the
UE and wanted union free from Red
influences.
1t looks to us as if members of other
CIO groups will soon have opportunities
to show concretely how they feel about
the Stalinist lads in the labor movement.
Regarding what happens when these
opportunities arise we won't make any
forecast other than this:
We predict that at the end of 1850
we won't have to eat this prediction!

suffer from unemployment. Too many of
our people have to forgo some of the
basic necessities of life. There is no need,
no excuse for this condition to continue.
Our country is rich enough to provide a
decent job, with decent wages for all
those who want to work And our aim is
to make sure that job opportunities shall
be afforded all of our people so that our
country may become even greater 4.
yes, even happier than it is today.
Provide For The Sick And The Aged
CPEARHEADED BY THE CIO, the
~ American people are on the march
to provide for our sick people and for
our aged workers. And that means ade-
quate hospital and medical care for our
people. We have plenty of doctors and
hospitals And if we don't have enough of
them, we shall train more doctors and
build yet greater hospitals and clinics
As for those of our workers who are
"too young to die, but too old to work"
- for them we shall have decent pen
sions so that they may live the remaining
years of their lives in peace, security and
happiness.
OuASly iio Ollc Idil Sdy LndL lueSe aims
are not in keeping with the most sacred
traditions of America
On the contrary, these aims are in
keeping the loftiest aims of human ideals.
So with the millions 49, strong Army
of Organized Labor behind us with
the common people of America support
ing our program and ideals, we shall
march forward in this, the coming sec
ond half of the Twentieth Century.
We shall reach our goals in the near
future
And with the reaching of our goals
we shall have achieved what no people
on earth have ever been able to achieve
before - happiness and contentment,
security and peace for those who man the
industrial might of America.
With these thoughts in mind with
the knowledge that you, too, dear reader,
harbor these same thoughts, these same
aims, we wish to say Happy New Year
To All OF You.

Il the Republicans, going on for some time
now, has reached the point where people are
saying "Why doesn't he marry the girl?" The
trouble is, it wouldn't work Such a marriage
would ruin the Republican party in the North,
and it would not get further in the South than
the Dixiecrats have
But the Republicans have now lost five
presidential elections in a row. including the
shellacking they took last November. Some
thing must be done. Raymond Moley, of News
week. and Arthur Krock of the New York
Times among others, think they have an
answer
Let's not have merger of the Dixiecrats
and the Republicans, they propose, but let's
have group outside the party that will serve
the forces on the right as Americans for Demo-
cratic Action serves those left of center. DR..
Moley says such group would have to exer-
else great care in excluding from its leader
ship crackpots and extremists Of the right"
Krock says the national chairman of such
group should be known and respected
throughout the country" Such group, which
might be called the Looking Backward
Americans" would support conservatives of
both parties In fact, some of the theorists

What's the matter with a setup like that!
Only one thing: They have nothing to offer.
They are talking in terms of 1890 instead of
1850. They talk as II the choice open to Ameri-
cans is between security and opportunity
They talk as though opportunities today are
