LABOR MUST USE
VOTE TO KEEP
DEMOCRACY
IN u. S. A.

DENVER, Col. - (ANP) -
Thurgood Marshall, special coun-
sci for the National Association
for the Advancement of Colored
People, in a stirring speech be-
fore the Eighth Constitutional
Convention of United Packing
house Workers of America, CIO,
last week urged positive action
by organized labor as the most
effective tool to clear the road
blocks hampering the practice of
real democracy in the U. S. A.
Nine hundred delegates from
the United States, Canada and
Puerto Rico met at the CoSmo-
politan hotel in this mountain
city to map strategy for 1853.
The total membership of the
union is 100000. One third of
this membership are non-whiteS.
Negroes hold many important
posts in locals throughout the ma
ton. Two serve on the Interna-
tional-Russell R. Lasley of Chi
cago as vice president and Ar
thur Morrison of Los Angeles as
director of District 5, which in
cludes y all states west of the
Rocky Mountains except Colora-
da and Montana.
Marshall blasted the reaction
ary forces which he said are con-
tinuouSly pushing programs and
I legislation to keep races and la
Dor groups separated to weaken
their ranks and their chances for
economic and physical security,
He said:
There is a sinister movement
in progress to keep Negroes and
Whites from organizing into eff
fective groups. The only salvation
for labor is closer unity and the
abolishment of segregation n d
discrimination all the way down.
He lauded the UPWA, CIO, for
its intelligent human relations
program and organizing tactics in
the south. He urged labor to use
i S voting strength to oust reac-
tionary forces unfriendly to Ne
groes and the working segment of
this nation, and to deny its vote
to candidates of the same school
of thought.
He said he believed Negroes
will demand a clear cut program
embracing their constitutional

Travelling in a large motor bus
remodeled into a house car early

Auto Hits Train

Robert E. Luginbuhl, 81, of West

$3.50 a. m. Thursday of last week
when his automobile slid into the
side of fast-moving Nickel Plate
passenger train at the North Sugar

Although Luginbuhl and COM
panion, Ernest Zuber, of Lima, were
unhurt, the auto was badly dam
aged, according to report from
deputies of the Allen county sheriff's
office.
The deputies report said Lugin-
buhl's car slid into the side of the
locomotive when he applied his brakes.
He said he had failed to see the
train until it was almost too late.
His view was obscured by the rain
and by box cars parked near the
crossing, according to the report. Lug
inbuhl had slowed down, looked both
ways, and then put the car in sec
ond gear before attempting to cross.

Council POstpOnes
Gas Rate POEcy

What Bluffton will do relative to
its policy in regard to impending
rate increases by the West Ohio Gas
company remained undecided when
the town council adjourned Monday
night, following an extended discus
sion of the matter.
Two suggestions are being consid-
cred, one that the village enact gas
rate ordinance of its own which the
gas company would then appeal to
the P. U. C. o. if it objected to the
rates so fixed.
The other proposal is an invitation
from Lima municipal officials to join
with that city and other affected
towns in fighting proposed rate
boosts. This, it is estimated, would
entail a cost to the town of S400.
