 To the extent that they can make these pledges the dominant question in the minds of British voters the Conservatives will turn the election into ref endum on Socialism. For the Laborites already have committed themselves still further steps in social

It.lloons To Russia

Let American planes over Ger many drop weather balloons which the wind currents would float over Russia carrying friendship mes- sages. Imagine the difficulty the Kremlin would have in explaining away these balloons!. During the war, the Japanese took advan- tage of weather currents to float balloons all the way across the Pa cific carrying explosives. They were balloons of death We can reverse the process with balloons of friend ship.
 "F. w. Danner of Akron, Ohio, has offered to print 100000 copies of a message to the Russian peo- pie without charge. Percy Smith of Los Angeles writes that he would be glad to supply hars of soap inn printed with message. The Eagle Rubber Company of Ashland, Ohio, International Latex of Dover, Del, and the Dewey Amy Company of Cambridge, Mass, have offered to contribute Mickey Mouse wrist watches-over which the Russian people go crazy. These are just a few of the patriotic Americans who want to help their country prevent war.
 "One of the surest ways to pre- vent war is to show the Russian people that we, the American peo- rle, aren't what the IA men in the kremlin say we are. As long as the Kremlin knows that 100000 ,000 Russians will unflinchingly obey the order to march-without Con- gressional debate, without criti- cism, and without knowing any thing about the issues-then war can always be just around the corner" (Date of columns, July 2l through Aug. 18, l948D

CIO Pledges
LPA Support

CHICAGO .(LPA) "The
l. "a bor Press Association has
made a real contribution to the
trade union movement since its
establishment last year by sup
plying the union press with
news, pictures and features that
are free of theological bias" So
declares the resolution on LPA
passed by the 18th convention of
the CIO.
,'LPA has enjoyed steady
growth since its founding, and
has made numerous improve
ments in its various services" !"
the resolution continued. Nov,
therefore, be it resolved, that
the CIO will continue to give
wholehearted support to the La
Dor Press Association. The CIO
likewise urges its affiliates to
support LPA and to subscribe
to LPA services for their news
papers whenever feasible"
Harry Boyer, president of the
Pennsylvania Industrial Union
Council, praised LPA during dis
cussion of the resolution on the
Taft Hartley act. AS an example
of the service LPA platforms,
he read the LPA report on the
press conference Senator Taft
held on his return to Washing
ton after his reelection. "Those
who do not now subscribe to
LPA should do So" Boyer de-
clared.
