Urge Plank Easing
Hatch Act Curbs
By q s.off Correspondent of. tn. s.or

ROANOKE, Va, July 18.-The
Democratic National Convention
will be asked to adopt a plank in
the party platform next week to
permit Federal Government en-
ployes to participate actively in
local political affairs.
A resolution adopted by the
Democratic State Convention here
yesterday asks the National Con-
vention in Chicago to approve the
plan, which would have an i'm
portant effect on the area near
Washington. Charles Harrison
Mann, former chairman of the
Arlington Democratic Executive
Committee, introduced the reso-
luton.
The Hatch Act-which forbids
such activity - discriminates
against Government employees, the
measure states, because it permits
them to engage in politics "only
iii they are in opposition to the
candidates of either of the two
political parties"
This policy encourages Govern.
ment workers to organize "loca.
third parties and helps to perpet-
uate the non-partisan -fallacy
thereby weakening the two-party
system" the resolution stated.
Magruder to Aid Campbell.
At the 10th district caucus pre-
ceding the convention. J.. Maynard
Magruder of Arlington, promised
his support to Edmund Campbell
also of Arlington, who defeated
him in Tuesdays primary for the
House nomination.
Mr.. Magruder said he had read
newspaper accounts of rumors
that some Democrats would vote
for the Republican candidate in
November because they were on
the losing side in the recent pri-
mary.
$50 far as I am concerned" MFR
Magruder said, "the rumors are
unfounded. I am a loyal, long
time Democrat. who believes ir
party unity"
Calls for Unity.
Mr.. Campbell had accused his
opponent Of being the machine
candidate" but yesterday Mr.. Ma
gruder declared:
ST now offer all that term i'm
plies in order that he may be
elected in November. It is essen
tial that we unite and get behind
the nominee"
State Senator Charles r. Fen
wick of Arlington. chairman Of the
10th District caucus, had sup
ported Mr.. Magruder in the cam
paign. But in introducing Mr.
Campbell, Mr.. Fenwick declared
II place my whole-hearted sup
port behind him."
Mr.. Campbell said he appre-
ciated the expressions of support
and promised to do his best to
represent all the people in the
10th District, if he is elected.

Fight Is On For
Leadership Of
Negro Workers

NEW YORK = (GlobaD - The
battle of labor groups for leader
ship of the. Negro working man is
on. Two weeks ago, a right wing
segment of organized labor met at
the Theresa Hotel to set up a Ma
tional Negro Labor Committee. A
week later, last Saturday, a Job
Action Conference" sponsored by
the National Negro Labor Council,
a so-called left-wing group, was
held in the same hotel, in the same
room.
Representatives of at least 35
labor organizations, both Clio and
AFL, attended the meeting which
lasted all afternoon. The confer
ence made plans to intensity the
Greater N. Y. Negro Labor Coun-
cil's campaign for 10000 new jobs,
upgrading and apprenticeship
training in the building trades,
printing, food, and railroad utili-
ties.
The main speaker at the confer
ence was Ewart Guinier. interna-
tional secretary of the United Pub
lie Workers Union, vice president
of the National Negro Labor Coun-
Gil and chairman of the Greater
N. Y. Negro Labor Council Will
liam R. Hood, secretary of the
Ford Local 900, CLIO, Detroit, is
national president of MIC.
Mr.. Guinier, former American
Labor Party candidate for Presi-
dent of the Borough of Manhattan,
attacked several labor leaders who
spoke at last weeks right-wing
meeting, especially James Carey,
secretary treasurer of the CLIO.
"Jim Carey tried red batting"
Mr.. Guinier said. "We are glad to
see that those labor leaders got to-
gether, but we want to see if they
will do more than talk. We want
action from these union Bosses"
Mr.. Guinier charged that Carey
and Lewis Hines of the AFL, "sim-
ply give lip service" to the cam
paign to integrate Negroes into
jobs. He also charged that Carey
"sold out" in the fight for a perma-
nent FEPC.
Saturdays conference issued a
petition for FEPC asking for Job
coverage, the right to a hearing,
power to investigate and the pow
er to enforce on a national level.
Since the convention last October
of the Negro Labor Council in
Cincinnati it was reported that
over $50 new jobs have been OBJ
tanned for Negroes, and new coun-
ellis have been set up in New York
New England States, Pennsylvania
and New Jersey.

Senator Russell A Candidate
(From The Savannah Tribune)


The entrance of Senator Russell in the for the
Democratic nomination at the coming Democratic con-
venton at Chicago has not only created interesting
situation for the Democrats but it has set Negroes to
thinking The administrations of Mr. Roosevelt and Mr..
Truman has been with nsncerity because he has not
followed through his orders regards segregation
in the Army and discrimination in work under govern
contract it is still true that the Democratic party
under his leadership retains the FEPC and civil rights
as important planks in its PLATFORM that it is
tnung effort to outlaw the fbuster; that it holds
out hope for the Negroes future than any of it's
splinter parties the Republican party. Certainly Mr.
Russel candidacy has appeal for Negro voters His
supporters had it in their minds that it would
have AS matter of fact they put him forward in order
to make that legislation aimed to fuller
enjoyment of American citizenship for Negroes would
continue to have rough going in the Congress that Mr.
Truman of his choosing fails to get the Demo-
cratic nomination nominated fail to get elected Not
little of Mr.. Russells power and prestige in Congress
is ascrbabe to his unreentng opposition to civil rights
legislation and to his marshang of the foes of the so
ture rule in the Senate His experience of 30 years
legislator without benefit of the vote of Negroes of
Georgia They had vote during most of these years
Naturally Negro voters in Georgia, and elsewhere for
that matter will watch the progress and outcome of his
candidacy with unusual concern.
