Fay Dickens, all members of the
committee.
The rally, arranged by Saunders
and his committee as well as the
official Democratic Executive Com
mittee, heard Floyd say that he
for one didn't want change.
He listed the longtime Democra-
tic leaders of Congress whom he
said would be thrown out of their
seniority-obtained committee posi-
ton in Congress should the Repub-
licans get in office. He said that
Sam Rayburn, speaker of the House
would be replaced by COP Joe
Martin of Massachusetts; that Sem
ator Sparkman, vice-presidential
candidate would be replaced by
Senator Nixon as president of the
Senate, should the COP win. SEN
ator George, Ca, who has long
held a key post would be replaced
by Senator Milliken, Colorado, and
that Senator Dick Russell Of Ca,
would be replaced by Senator Sal
tonstall in his Senate committee
jobs. Senator Mcclellan, of Arkan-
sas, Floyd said, would be replaced
by Senator Joe Mccarthy of Wis
consin in top Senate post, and
Senator Maybank, S. c., would be
replaced by Senator Homer Cape
hart of Indiana.
do you want these changes?"
Floyd asked the rally crowd.
The Democrats are for change,
and have been. said Floyd. 1t was
a change from repression and in
security for America when the
party took over in 1882. It was a
change from isolation to collective
resistance against fascism and
communism when the party came
in.
He lauded Democrats Fullbright
and Kefauver for their investiga-
ton of corruption in Government.
Dishonest men are found in both
parties. He said:
But when we find them we dis
miss them Immediately" said
Floyd.
He attacked Vice Presidential
candidate Nixon for his alleged &C.
ceptance of funds used in politics.
You can't vote for Eisenhower
for President without getting Nix
on, who would be cne heartbeat
away from the Presidency.
Floyd made various points on
foreign policy which elected far
less applause than his comments on
the COP candidates personalities.
He deplored such Democrats as
Governor Jimmy ByrneS Of S. c.,
who have swung 20 Eisenhower.
"Byrnes has tried to forget the
20 years in which he was the archi.
tect Of the party, and much Of what
we have today was built By him.
"But / can't forget q depression.
