Senator Murray Sees
New Drive on Taft AcI
III Democrats Win
BY the Associated Press

Senator Murray, Democrat, of
Montana said today that if to-
morrow's election comes out as
he expects, there will be a re-
newed drive In the next Congress
to repeal the Taft-Hartley Act.
Senator Murray, who heads a
Senate Labor subcommittee in
vestigating labor management re-
lations, said he thinks the cleo
ton results will demonstrate that
the voters want the Taft-Hartley
Act wiped of the books.
''Some day it is going to be re-
pealed by Congress and the
Wagner Act restored. with some
notifications" the Montana
Senator declared. TT will be a
political issue as long as it is on
the books"
Senator Murray conceded that
it will be difficult to get up any
steam behind a repeal drive if
the election results don't support
his theory that labor is gaining
political strength in the country.
Taft's Future May Be Key.
In recent weeks, Senator Taft,
Republican, of Ohio has been
bearing down on his defense Of
the Taft Hartley Act. Senator
Taft's critics. on the other hand.
have shown signs of soft-pedalling
the law as an issue by concen-
trating on other points in the
Ohioan's record.
Senator Taft's reelection would
be almost certain to be regarded
by many in Congress as indicat-
ing that there isn't the popular
sentiment behind Taft Hartley
repeal that labor leaders have
counted on.
The possibility has been recog-
nized in Democratic as we'll as
circles that Chairman
Thomas of the Senate Labor Com
mittee might be defeated in his
reelection bid in Utah.
Thomas in Eight of Life"
Democratic National Chairman
William M. Boyle, jr., has con-
coded that Senator Thomas is
involved in "the fight of his po-
litical life" In his contest with
Wallace F. Bennett, Republican.
Mr.. Bennett is a former presi-
dent of the National Association
of Manufacturers. If he should
defeat Senator Thomas, who was
one of the authors of the last
unsuccessful Taft-Hartley re-
pealer. that would be another
blow to labor's legislative aspir-
ations.
Besides the Taft and Thomas
campaigns, the labor issue is
more or less at stake in other
close Senatorial contests.
AS far as the present Senate
is concerned, labor isn't in as
good a position as it was in June,
1949. when a 51-to-42 vote for a
Taft substitute (Which later died
in the House, killed chances for
Taft-Hartley repeal.
The Taft 1949 substitute
dropped some features of the orig
inal Taft-Hartley Act, but not
enough to satisfy organized labor.
BY substantial margin the Sen
ate voted in 1949 to retain pro-
visions for the use of plant seiz-
ure, injunctions, or both, to pre-
vent Nation wide industrial strikes.
The issue has remained dead
locked in House committee ever
since.
Death, designations, primary
defeats and decisions not to run
again eliminated from the next
Senate eight members who voted
against Senator Taft's 1949 ver-
sion, compared to only three sup
porters.

Choir Will
Appear at Dunbar
School Friday

A unique and interesting choir
will appear in a program next
Friday evening at the Dunbar
High School Auditorium. 1t is the
Wilmington College Choir. They
will present a recital for the be-
nefit of the Dunbar High school
band.
The Wilmington College choir
is one of the most outstanding
college choral groups in the state
of Ohio. 1t is also one of the
most versatile.
The program will be extremely
interesting. 1t will feature music
from many lands, in native cos
tunes, and with folk dancing.
Popular and classical music will
be prominent on the program.
This choir will also sing some Of
the popular Negro spirituals.
The Dunbar Band under the di-
rectorship of Mr.. w. j. Edwards
Jr., has become a community fix
ture. It's annual concerts are avid
ly locked forward to by lovers of
all types of music. 1t is an am
bilious group.
But it is short of instruments
and uniforms. 1t should be sup
ported by all elements in the
community. An outstanding band
should be tops in every respect.
1t can only be so if it gains the
support of the community.
The Daily EXPRESS urges that
everybody attend this concert by
the Wilmington College choir.
Enjoy yourself while you help the

RALEIGH, N. C. (ANP) Have
CLIO and other labor leaders made
another backdoor deal to bypass
civil rights legislation in this ses-
sion Of Congress?
That is the burning question

gather support for the administra-

of the "laboring Masses went
South to win Dixie support for
the Truman program, they made
it clear that they did not include
civil rights in their demands.
