AFL-CIO Join For
Political Action
In Connecticut

New Haven, Conn. (LPA)-The
AFL and CIO are formally com
bining political forces in Connect
cut for the 1850 elections. The ann
ouncement was made at a special
conference on political action, the
first order of business at the 18th
annual state CIO convention. At
tending the session were 10 vice
presidents of the State Federation
of Labor, representatives Of the
Brotherhood of Railway Trainmen,
Brotherhood of Locomotive Fire
men and Enginemen, the Interna-
tional Association of Machinists,
and the United Mine Workers. AFL
leaders were cheered by the $50
CIO convention delegates.
A resolution to set up a United
Labor Committee was presented by
an AFL delegate, and seconded by
an official Of the Machinists. Final
details of the political unity plan
were worked out at meeting Fri
day, Jan. 20
In 1850 a governor will be cleo
ted in Connecticut to serve four
years, instead of two. Two US
Senators also will be elected.
Roy Reuther, of the United Auto
Workers, declared "the most signi-
ficant trend of our times is the de-
velopment of labor unity nation
ally and internationally" That
was a good start, he said, but "a
bold, positive program is neces-
sary, Fair Deal program not
welded to the slogans of the past
but to the needs of the present and
the future"
Sen. William Benton, speaking at
the convention banquet, assailed
the Taft Hartley act as going "too
far, and called for "a positive ap-
proach to labor peace.

WoII Says Denham
Should Be Out

Washington (LPA) = General
Counsel Robert N. Denham of the
Natl Labor Relations Board suf-
fered fire from a new quarter the
other day when AFL attorney ].
Albert Woll loosed a scorching
broadside.
What aroused Woll was Den
hams recent speech before the
Building Trades Employer Assn
of New York City, accusing NLRB
members of being so Wagner-act
minded that they were-horror of
horrors undermining the Taft
Hartley act. Denham urged en-
ployers to take NLRB decisions
they didn't like into the federal
courts. In such cases, Denham him
self is the boards lawyer.
Woll said Denham's speech "was
a sorry spectacle which again raises
serious question as to the fitness
of this man to continue as general
counsel for the board" He said
that Denham's public ridicule" of
the NLRB's decisions furnishes
further evidence relative to his un-
fitness for the position he now
holds"
Striking hard, Woll said: at is
quite apparent that, chargined by
the boards refusal to follow blind
ly his extreme anti-union labor
philosophy as general counsel, he
has turned for aid and comfort to
employers and seeks their support
to harass and beleaguer in court
the very agency of government he
is required, as general counsel, to
represent in court"
However, Denham's remov a |
would not be enough, Woll said. He
pointed out that disagreement on
how to interpret a complicated law
indicated that it would be better
to get rid of the Taft Hartley act
itself.

AFL Says Unions

homes were started last year, set
ting an all time record for the
| United States. He urged the COM
mittee not to be misled by these
j figures, asserting the total was not
only below what the country needs,
but that the housing was not avail
able for middle income families. He
said private mortgage interests
had "woefully failed" to provide
decent housing for the middle in
come group.
Along with other supporters of
the legislation, the AFL urged that
the cooperative housing program
for middle income families be plac-
ed under a new housing agency
with as much standing as the Pub
lie Housing Administration and the
| Federal Housing Administration
Rep. Javits (R-NY), who sup
ported the administration bill as a
spokesman for liberal Republicans,
also urged the separate agency.
/ He said so per cent of the FILA
program was "beyond the reach of
the all per cent of all American
families" in the gap between low
income families and those able to
buy present housing.
Chairman Sparkman DALAI }
noted that Javits' claim Of author
ship of the bill was refutation of
the charge that the Administration
was jamming the measure down
the throats of the people.
Rodney M. Lockwood, president
of the National Association of
Home Builders, was sharply chal-
lenged by Sparkman when he con-
tended the bill would discriminate
in favor of cooperative housing
and provide special tax exemptions
for cooneratives.
Sparlsman also challenged fig
ures presented by Lockwood de-
signed to show that most present
construction was for middle income
families. In the exchange with
Lockwood, Sparkman announced
that he favored lowering the inter
est rate on FILA loans, asserting
the market did not justify AZ per
cent interest.
Lockwood contended that Amer
ica had built last year more hous-
ing than all the rest of the world
put together-but Sparkman pre-
sented figures showing that on the
basis of population, U. S. home
construction ran poor fourth
behind Sweden, New Zealand, and
even Canada.
Sparkman did not even bother
to question Harry S. Barger, a
spokesman for the ultra-conserva-
tive National Economic Council,
who contended that "the American
people are at their limit of patience
and endurance of burdensome taxes
for the perpetuation and expan-
sion of public housing"

Real Estate Boards, two years ago.
He quoted memorandum sent by
the NAREB chief agreeing that
the cooperative principle should be
extended, and that it "should be
implemented by Congress"
They're not opposing coopera-
tive housing" Reuther observed.
"But they want it on the basis that
they can control. When you in
Congress set out to help the people
help themselves, and not help the
spectators to help themselves,
they don't like it a Bit"
Reuther also attacked the So
called ECONOMY houses" being
pushed on middle-income families
by private builders. Citing speci-
fications, he called them cracker
boxes" and "glorified chicken
houses"
Earlier, Drayton S. Bryant, Cal
ifomia housing expert, had charg-
ed that private builders economy

should have more than one child,
or at the most two children of

for the homes. Bryant warned that
any plans for slum clearance and
urban redevelopment would be
stymied unless "there are housing
tools available for those regularly
employed wage-earners and owners
Of tiny homes" in areas to be clear
ed. tt"
Bryant sdocumented the Federal
Housing agency's hostility to CO.
operatives, citing a survey of more
than $50 such home co-ops con
tanning overwhelming evidence that
FILA consistently has been "hostile
to the idea and the groups organ
ized," and has rebuffed the co-opS

malls" of aid
He urged that the coop housing
program be handled through a
separate agency, with an admins
traitor appointed by the President
with the consent of Congress, and
responsible directly to the White
House.

ancial page which most readers do
not read. It's story was less than
half a column long, and played
down some of the most sensational
angles of the sharp profit rise. The
New York Herald-Tribune did not
carry the story at all.
The Washington Post, one of the
most liberal dailies, left the story
out entirely as did the other Wash
ington papers.
The Journal of Commerce, finan-
cial paper published in New York,
carried less than half column and
ignored the sweeping character of
the FTC survey.
This is the second time the daily
newspapers have ignored a major
economic story breaking in Wash
ington this week.
Last Monday Senators Paul
Douglas (D, Ill., and Russell Long
Cd, La.) held special press con-.
ference to release an unusual state
ment by 70 of the nations leading
economists warning that the basing
point bill now before the Senate
would gut the antitrust laws. This
was made available to all news
papers, but was not even mentioned
in most of them.
Whether these evidences of one
sided reporting are the result of
deliberate policy by Americas big
daily newspapers, or the result of
a blind spot in their Judgment of
news, makes little difference. The
people have been left in
ignorance of two very important
developments that could affect their
pocketbooks for many years to
come.

campaign for so. A Declaration
of Policy" was adopted by the 140t
delegates in attendance.
The declaration was two-fold-
calling for cooperation of all State
Bodies with the American Fedora
tion of Labor in its efforts to ado
100000 new members in the ma
tion, and getting all members anc
their families to register and vote
against Senator Taft.
The two day session was opened
by a brilliant banquet celebrating
the official opening of the new
headquarters of the Federation al
273 East State Street, Columbus
Ohio.
Principle speakers at the BAN
quet were Democratic Senator HUI
bert H. Humphrey of Minnesota
Joseph d. keenan,, Director of the
national League for Political Ac-
ton; Bishop Michael j. Ready of
the Columbus Diocese, and William
Green, president of the American
Federation of Labor.
The Minnesota Senator said in
part, "Ohio Republican politics
symbolizes the confusion and des-
peration of Republican leadership
in Washington and throughout the
nation.
"The G. 0. p. Dixiecrat coalition
has been blessed and made legal
by Republican leadership from
Ohio. The new brand of isolation
ism that includes no commitments
to Europe but the Navy of For
mosa, was conceived and brought
into life on the banks of the Beau
tiful Ohio.
"Hysterical warnings of statism
and the cries of welfare state seem
to grow louder as one approaches
this state.
eyes, seldom has one State been
given the dubious honor of having
produced so much confusion, in so
few men, in such short period of
time. But say what you will, like
it or not, the Republican leadership
of this wonderful state represents
the dilemma, the confusion and the
desperation of the G. o. p.
'The republican chieftons have
gathered in Washington to find a
program. This within itself is sad
admission of the fact which the
American People have long known.
For 20 years the Republican party
has had no program. 1t has had
the gall and the effronty to go be-
fore the American people and seek
a majority vote without having
program or platform in which it
believed. If this be not the case
then why are the chieftons of the
G. o. p. gathered in Washington TO
prepare a manifesto for 1850?
"Why the Republican party
needs is a psychiatrist."
Senator Humphrey, in calling
for aggressive, constructive political
action on the part of organized
labor reminded his audience that,

won by hard work and active par
ticipation in every voting precinct
in the country. The essentials of a
successful political campaign are a
program that meets the needs of
the people, candidates that are
willing to fight for the people, a
political organization that belongs
to and is controlled and managed
by the rank and file of the people,
a clear cut statement of the issues
in language that is understandable
by the people. This is the job which
the American Federation of Labor
Political and Educational League
has undertaken. 1t has advanced
its program with amazing strides.
The acid test of its effectiveness
will be in the election of 1880"
"If the Fair Deal program is to
be passed, if the Taft-Hartley Act
is to be repealed, if the people of
this country are to get the legisla-
tion that they were promised, it is
the responsibility of the labor
movement and of every liberal and
democratic organization to forget
personal pride and petty differ
ences and to unite behind candi-
dates and around a program be-
tween now and the elections of
1850. The election year of 1850 is
the crucial political battle in the
struggle to see whether or not this
country of ours is going forward
in the pattern of the New Deal or
backward into the confusion of the
old deal. The Fair Deal program
has made significant gains in the
81st Congress. However, the major
issues of Taft-Hartley repeal, of
civil rights, of social security ex-'
tension may well be determined by
what happens at the ballot boxes
in 1850"
President William Green called
upon voters of Ohio to send liberal
men to Congress. He emphasized
several points in his talk. They
were:
l. A year long campaign to gain
/ ,000, 600 new members.
2. A drive to elect a liberal Con-
gress in November 1860 committed
to repeal of the Taft Hartley Law
and to win a fair deal in every
state capitol.
3. A series of organization and
political rallies by all affiliated

Phil Hannah, secretary of the
Ohio Federation of Labor's Edu-
cational and Political League, stat
ed in key-noting the state political
rally:
"We will beat Taft not with dol
lars, we will beat him with ballots"
Hannah also said the Federation
will not take part in the Demo-
cratic primary to choose an oppon-
ent to Sen. Taft. He did say:
THE Ohio State Federation of
Labor shall abide by the decision
of Ohio Democrats and support
enthusiastically the candidate they
pick"
Hannah called the defeat of Taft |
"our destiny" He said the best |
way to repeal the Taft Hartley
