The ReoI Reason
For Republican Attack

No. my friends, the real rea-
son for this Republican attack,
for this campaign of fear and
distrust. is that they want to
take your Government away
from you. They want to scare
you and fool you into voting
for them. so that they can again
control the United States as
they did in 1882. They want to
get back in power and get their
hands on our resources and the
development of this country.
They want to get back in power
so they can make this country
the happy hunting ground that
it was for the millionaires-and
so that the farmer and the
working man can be let out in
the cold again like they were
back in the '20s and the early
sos.
That is their objective, and
that is what / want to explain
to you as I go along this trip
through this great and wonder
full country of ours. I want to
explain to you. just as ! did in
1948, that your interests are in
danger. And I want to ask you
now as I did then, to vote for
yourselves.
Vote for your own interests.
Vote for the welfare Of this
great country. Vote for the
Democratic ticket for peace and
prosperity.

LITTLE ROCK. Ark, Sept. 80.
of the Senate Les
Biffle. whose personal poll Of the
country's voters in 1948 enabled
him to predict the results with
amazing accuracy, said here yes
terday he planned a similar poll

Mr.. Biffle, a native Arkansan
who attended a meeting of Demo-
cratic leaders from six Southern
States here yesterday, said he in
tended to conduct his poll in
pivotal States within a few days.
In 1948, when most political
polls were predicting that Thomas
E. Dewey would be elected, Pres
ident Truman said he would win,
and called his shots.
After the election, the President
revealed that his predictions were
based on Mr.. Bifde's poll. Posing

made his poll in such States as
Ohio. Illinois, Indiana and West

Purge Of Bad Apples
In Medical Profession
Urged by virginian
BY the Associoied Press

RICHMOND. Sept. 30.-The
friendly and trusting attitude"
that the public once held toward
doctors no longer exists, DR.. John
T. Hundley. president of the Medi-
cal Society of Virginia, said here
last night.
In its place. he declared, has de-
veloped IAN attitude of suspicion.
The Lynchburg physician, ad-
dressing the society's annual con-
vention, called on doctors to
purge the medical profession Of
its faults and weaknesses"
DR.. Hundley said few rotten
apples" in the profession have
been responsible for the i'll feeling
that has built up against doctors
in the past quarter century.
Sore Spots Listed.
He listed these "Sore spots" as
among the things which are hurt
ing the professions reputation:
l. Failure of the physician to
show enough personal interest in
the patient and his family.
2. Charging too much for med
ical services. Too often, he said,
the. patient is charged as much
as he can stand.
3. Professional false pride. Doc
tors guilty of this. said DR.. Humid
ley, include those who refuse to
examine school children or who
won't speak to parent-teacher
association.
4. Failure to denounce the
"chiselers" and "black sheep" in
the profession. Doctors must po-
lice their own ranks, he said, and
strip away those who aren't quail
if1ed to practice.
5. A selfish Interpretation of
the principles of medical ethics.
He said some doctors use "ethics"
to keep other doctors from "en-
croaching" on their practice.
Battle Commends Doctors.
Gov. Battle. in brief address,
commended the doctors for what
he described as their fine work in
Virginia.
He said he wanted them to know
that the States work in the public
health field is in no way move
toward state medicine" but
merely a means of compliment
ing the work Of private physi-
cians."
Earlier, the medical society's
house Of delegates-the ruling
body-voted, 66 to 81, for de-
letion of the word white" from
the society's constitutional re-
quirements for membership, but
this was short Of the required
two-thirds majority.
It marked the third successive
annual meeting at which advo-
Gates have failed to put through
a proposal to admit qualified
Negro doctors to membership.

made a better choice. In the
debates In Paris. he stood right
up to the Russian VishinSky
and slugged it out with him and
beat down a Russian attack on
the foreign policy Of the United
States. That debate won respect
for Mike Mansfield through
out the world.
Mike has always known that
communism was dangerous
and that we had to take meas
ures to stop it. Gov. Stevenson
has been the same way. Back
in 1945 and 1916, Gov. Steven
son carried out some important
missions for us in Europe. He
saw what the Communists were
up to. While he worked nightly
for international cooperation,
he was one Of the first to warn
that the Russians were becom-
ing threat to peace.

Calls for Election
OF Mike Mansfield

And I hope you'll send Mike
Mansfield to the United States
Senate to work with Jim Muir
ray. Over in this part of Mon
tana, you haven't had the
chance to vote for Mike before,
but I want to assure you that
he's one Of the ablest men in
the House of Representatives
and that he's earned your vote
as United States Senator.
Mike Mansfield is a credit to
Montana, and to the whole
United States. He has a record
to be proud of. I don't know
any one who has worked harder
for the welfare of the people
of this State than he has. He
is more responsible than any
other man for the Hungry Horse
Dam which I am going to dedi-
cate tomorrow-and for a lot of
other great projects-which are
going to make Montana more
prosperous and an even better
State to live in.
Mike has worked just as hard
for projects in this part of the
State as he has for projects in
his own district. One of the
things he has worked the hard
est for is the transmission line
from Havre to Shelby. You all
know how that fight came out.
In spite Of the Republican 8Oth
Congress, and in spite OF all the
mossback Republicans in the
House of Representatives and
in the Senate, we got that line
through. ?
But Mike Mansfield has done
much more than to represent
Montana in Washington. He
has represented the q United
States before the whole world.

the United States delegation to

Eisenhower's Advice
On Russia Harmful

I don't remember that the
Republican Party had any such
wisdom and foresight. Neither
did the man who is now the
Republican candidate for Pres
ident. After the war, while he
was still the commanding gen.
eral of our forces in Europe.
he said that he saw no reason
why Russia and the United
States would not remain the
closest possible friends.
There is no one thing" he
said. that guides the policy of
Russia more today than to keep
friendship with the United
States"
Those are the exact words he
used before a committee of the
Congress in November, 1945.
His foresight was not nearly as
good as his hindsight.
OF course, we can all make
mistakes, but the Republican
candidate was then commanding
general in Europe and he was
in close contact with the Rus
slams. His advice carried great
weight and it therefore did a
great deal of harm. Perhaps
if he had given us better advice
in 1945. we wouldn't have he'd
so much trouble in waking up
the country to the danger of
Communist imperialism in 1916
and 1947 and 1948. 2,
It is true that we were all
trying Immediately after the
war to find a means for living
with the Russians on a peaceful
basis. I don't blame the Re-
publican candidate for his part
in that. But he ought to be
honest enough to admit his
"blunderS" about the Russians.

Republicans Blocked
Progress in Congress

-
licans to the 82d Congress in
November of 1850 than there
were in the 81st Congress. They
did not obtain control of the
82d Congress but they got
enough Republicans in there to
block progress. This was what
they wanted most. Their in
creased voting strength in the
Congress enabled them with the
aid of a few Democrats to sue
ceed in their obstructionist ef-
forts. They were able to block
further progress in such fields
as better health and better
housing. They tried to UNDER
mine the projections we had
set up for the average citizen in
this time of defense mobiliza-
ton. They weakened our con-
trolls over prices, pushing the
cost Of living up. They tried to
do away with rent control.
They worked to leave big loop
holes in the tax laws so that the
rich could make more money.
They tried to put the burden Of
the defense program on the
little fellow, instead of making
each man carry his fair share
in accordance with his ability
to pay.
Now, in this election year,
they believe that they have a
chance to finish the job. #
they can elect a Republican
President. and a Republican
Congress, they will finally have
the average citizen at the mercy
Of the special interest. And
they believe that they can win
this election by stepping up their
campaign Of Misrepresentation,
diStruSt. fear and panic that
they started in 1910.
So they are going around the
country again, wringing their
hands, saying that our foreign
policy is failure-our defenses
are either unnecessary or too
expensive - saying that your
Government is corrupt and in
competent and disloyal. They
are engaging in the greatest
smear campaign this year that
we have ever seen in American
politics.
And what is the purpose of
all this? Is it to give us better
defenses? Obviously not. They
have been voting to hold down
our defense effort.
Is it to give us stronger allies
in the fight against commu-
nism? Obviously not. They
have been voting against meas
ures to make our allies stronger.
Is 1t to give us q better and
stronger foreign policy? OBJ
viously not. They haven't had
q single constructive idea about
foreign policy since Senator
Vandenberg died.
Is it to give US stronger inter-
nal defenses against the Com
munists? Obviously not. We
were engaged in crushing the
Communist conspiracy in this
country long before the Repub-
ican orators tried to make votes
out of it.
Is the purpose of the Repub-
lican smear campaign to give us
cleaner. more efficient gov
ernment? Obviously not. They
have been voting for tax loop
holes and special favors to big
busineSS-and against most of
the reorganization plans I have
sent to Congress to make our
government cleaner and better.

struction. They were trying to
sabotage our great development
projects like the ones you have
here in Montana. They were
trying to keep us from improv-
ing social security and protect
ing the rights Of labor. They
were trying to block everything
the majority Of the people voted
for in 1948.
In 1850 the Republicans saw
their big chance.
It was in that year that the
Communists launched their
brutal invasion Of Korea. We
moved in to stop it, for the sake
Of our own national security
and to preserve freedom in the
world. We knew we could not
wait while the attack spread
and dragged the whole world
into war-a war which would
be atomic, this time, with the
bombs falling on America. So
we moved in and stopped the
Communists in Korea.
This cost us money and effort,
and worst Of all, the lives Of
many of our finest young men.
But it checked the plans Of the
Kremlin for world conquest.
And blocked their conspiracy
against this country.
The sacrifices Of our men in
Korea have protected this coun-
try against one Of the gravest
dangers that ever threatened it.
The Republicans decided.
however. that regardless Of the
threat to our country. they
could make a lot Of votes out of
the hardships and the losses
that our action in Korea was
costing us. They went around
the country trying to spread
alarm and panic, misrepresent-
ing the facts and stirring up
resentment. And they sue
ceeded in frightening a lot of
people.

6. O. P. Has FoIsified
Record on Communism

I get tired Of all the Repub-
lican speeches and all their
propaganda saying that the Re-
publican Party has been out in
front against the. danger of
communism. It simply isn't so.
The Republican Party was
asleep at the switch when the
Communists first began to
threaten our security in Eu-
rope and in Asia. It took all I
could do. and all the Democrats
could do-with the assistance
Of Senator Vandenberg and a
few intelligent Republicans-to
wake the Republican Party up
to the necessity of taking suffi-
cient measures against COM
munism. Old Guard Repub-
licans in Congress were leaders
in the clamor for demobilizing
our armed forces after the
close Of the war. Through all
Of 1916 and 1947 and 1948 they
were dragging their feet. They
were voting to cut military and
economic aid to foreign nations,
and as recently as last summer
they were voting to cut appro-
priations which we need to
make our defenses strong.
The Republican Party is just
as backward in foreign policy
as it is in domestic policy. It
it just as careless about our
national security as it is about
our national welfare.
This year. however. they have
unlimited supplies of money
and they are trying to flood the
country with propaganda to
make you think the Republican
Party stands for national de-
fense and national security
and that the Democratic Party
doesn't. It is a complete distor-
tion of the facts. Worse than
that, it is trap. Now, I want
to tell you exactly what I mean
by that.
I shall have to go back a little
bit in history.
Bosic Issue. Remains
q - = - r
Same as in 1o4S.
The basic issue between the
Republican Party and the Dem.
ocratic Party is the same to-
day as it has always been. It
is the issue between liberal pol
icies and reactionary policies.
It is the issue between the party
which believes the people come
first-that wants to help the
people in their daily lives-and
a party that believes the big
business comes first - that
wants to help the special privi-
lege groups at the expense Of
the people.
That was the issue I ex-
planned to you in 1948. The
Democratic Party went before
the people In 1948 with a liberal
program. We explained what
we wanted to do for the people.
And after we were elected, we
went ahead to do those things
for the people.
In the 81st Congress we had
a good. solid Democratic ma
jority and we set out to do the
things we had promised. We
expanded social security and we
improved the minimum wage
law. We improved health and
housing measures and we went
ahead with our progressive
farm policies.
Most important Of all, we
stopped this Nation from sliding
into a recession In 1949. We
kept prosperity. For the first
time in history. we did not have
a postwar depression.
At the same time, we were
f1ghting against the threat of
communism. We were building
up the nations of Europe and
Asia against the Communist
threat. We were working out
firm alliances and firm defenses
to hold the Communists in
check.
