"Then after they, have watched
the convention, over their pro-
tests, renominate Truman or
somebody to the left of Truman,
when they have watched the con-
vention, over their protests, put
planks in the platform which are
repugnant to the people of the
South, when they have heard some
of the liberal left-wing element
of their own party stand up at
their own convention and insult
them to their face by calling them
Bourbons and reactionarieS and
snarl at them at the convention as
they sometimes sneer at them on
the floor of congress, it's epected
then that having been insulted,
having been rejected, having been
disillusioned, they'll be ready to
60 home and assert their indepen-
dence as they did in 1948."
Mundt said that if the Republi-
cans are going to court support
in the South" some thought should
be gwen to the selection of cam
didates and ''to Southern concepts
in the writing of a platform" He
proposed to approach the, question
Of civil rights within the pur-
view of the doctrine of States
rights.
"Do you think the Republicans
who have already voted for FEPC
and for other measures of civil
rights will be able to remain si-
lent" Mundt was asked.
He replied that they will present
their point of view before the plat
form committee but those who are
against the superstate and CEN
tralization of power in Washing
ton "have got to recognize the doc
trine of states rights"
@. won't you, as practical
matter, be up against the fact
that in the Northern States you
will be driving the Democratic
parry to be the civil-rights party =

ferent in the South"
Mundt believes that a ticket
made up of any combination OF
two from among Senator Robert
A. Taft, Republican, of Ohio; Gen.
eral Dwight D. Eisenhower, and
Senators Harry F. Byrd of Vir-
ginia, and Richard B. Russell of
Georgia, both Democrats, would
be acceptable to Dixiecrats and
Northern Republicans.
Asked whether Taft's position
on civil rights was not generally
unsatisfactory to the South,
Mundt replied: "Not nearly as
unsatisfactory to the South as
Dewey's position on civil rights
was four years ago."
Mundt described Taft as "a mid
dle-of-the-roader on civil rights,
who had "leaned bit toward the
FEPC crowd, but he hasn't been
out giving speeches about it, ne
hasn't been crusading for it,"
Mundt believes that chances Of
forming the Dixiecrat-Republican
alliance are good if President Tru-
man is renominated, or if Justice
William o. Douglas of the United
States Supreme Court is nomina-
ted for president by the Demo-
Gratis, but that its chances would
be seriously injured if the Demo-
Gratis nominated Chief Justice Fred
M. Vinson.

A new Texas law facilitates this
whole movement, Mundt declared.
"This provides now that in 1852
for the first time IN Texas you
can cross-file. There is a device
so that you can amalgamate and
add together the anti-Truman
votes for president"
Mundt said this law was pro-
NOTED in Texas "by some of the
folks interested in the alliance
program" including the governor.
Mundt called Texas the key
state. He said 1--WE believe Texas
can pull most of the South along
on some effective program of po-
litical realignment."
AS election time approaches,
Mundt said, cit will really become
clear to the Democratic South that
the results of the Democratic Ma
tional Convention are going to
leave them very, very unhappy
$50 it has been suggested that
delegates be selected by the Demo-
Gratis in the South who will go to
the national convention, making an
effort to get a restoration of hte
rule requiring a two-thirds ma
jority to secure a presidential and
vice presidential nomination =

ing, but they can try.

a real ringing reaffirmation of
the doctrine of States rights =
which they will not be able to do,

Making an effort to have one
Of their Southern sons selected as
a candidate for president on the
basis that the South has provided

Democratic party for all these
years - that they can do, but they

as it has to be to win the votes
in Harlem and elsewhere = and
that those Republicans who feel the
same way about civil rights will
join with those Democrats and
carry most of these Northern
States?"
Mundt replied that he did not
think that. "here is, of course,
some fear of that on the part of
some Northern Republicans" he
stated, adding:
"Now we believe that in the
groups, in the colored organiza-
tions, among the colored popula-
ton, and in places where the FE-
PC has been a very definite issue,
there are a great many people
there who also believe in the doc
trine of States rights.
1--WE can present pretty good
Republican position, for eample,
to those who believe in FEPC, who
are largely in the Northern cities.
We can say: What party was it
that freed the colored man? 1t
was the Republican party. What
party was it that has given the
colored man his best opportunity
to succeed in this country? 1t has
been the Republican party under
Republican government.
What kind of States have
given him State FEPCs, to give
him a better chance and an op-
portunity. 1t has been almost
without exception Republican
states under Republican governors
empowered by Republican legisla-
tures.'"
Asked whether he thought the
South would accept the program
that Northern states have adopted,
Mundt replied:
"The South is completely will

most every state of the South.

Carson plays his none-too-b bright buddy, offering the star chance for some of his broad comedy characterizations Morris plays somewhat comic heavy here, his first try at milo villiany on the screen. Arnold, of the infectious laugh trademark. is a Washington politician in the sprightly comedy.
