I did not resign during
the November meeting of the
LMC.
What / did do was to read to
the members the Blade editorial
published on November IL, 1850.

that editorial:

told the membership that /
didn't consider myself that inn

LMC resulted in a muddle, if
my continued membership was
an obstacle to this important
community body, then I would
naturally tender my resignation.
For the rest of the meeting,
I waited to hear what the other
members had to say about this
Blade assertion. AS I recall it
now, except for a fortnight
and honest rejection of the
Blades thesis by Monsignor

endangerS the individual stand
ard of living, but menaces the
whole defense effort itself.
The safety of the nation is at
stake.
The conference adopted a six
point pre- g ram to meet this
threat head-on, and we delegates
from every corner of the coun-
try, representing organized labor
everywhere, have come back to
our communities ready to put
the program to work.
We agreed, in Washington.
that this is not a Labor problem
alone. Every community group.
every community spirited or
ganization has direct stake In
it. Thoughtful merchants recog-
nize that they have more to lose
- even their businesses - from
an unchecked initiation and a
devastated economy than any
one else.
We are prepared to counter
the editorials which will try to
identify this fight against soar
ing prices and pegged incomes
as greedy and selfish campaign
of the labor unions to win spe-
cial privileges for themselves.
This is definitely not SO. From
the very beginning Labor step
ped forward to ffer support
and sacrifice (on any equal and
fair play basis) in the fight to
put tight lid on the initiation
all of our leaders knew was
coming on the heels of mobili-
Zation.
The six point program is key
ed to the distribution of unbiaS-
ed information using all the
agencies of public information
necessary to keep the public in
formed. Here is the program:
. To enlist active support for
the anti-inflation fl ght from
every community organization
which believes in the need to
mobilize against totalitarian ag-
gress sion and in the need. to
maintain maximum Democracy
at the same time.
. To promote public meetings.
