THE POLITICAL MILL
By GOULD LINCOLN
Labor, Negro BIocs Won for JFK

Two large blocs Of voters
today are being given credit
for the election Of President
elect John r. Kennedy on
November 8-the labor vote
and the Negro vote. The COM
mittee on Political Education
Of the AFL and the CIO, in a
memo commenting on the
service which organized labor
performed in the recent ma
tional elections, quoted from
a letter sent by AFL-CIO
President George Meany to
international. State and local
leaders Of labor's largest Or
ganization.
Mr.. Meany wrote: May !
take this opportunity to ex-
press to you. your fellow ON
GERS and members our sin
cere appreciation for your
contribution to our 1860
Registration" and "Get-out-
the-vote" campaigns. As the
reports clearly indicate, these
campaigns were very produc-
tive, particularly in the areas
where our membership re-
sides. However, as effective as
the campaigns were, all our
efforts will have been wasted
unless we continue our efforts
on a year-round basis. ! urge
you and your officers to con-
tinue your registration cam
paign in order that we may
be able to produce even
greater results in the coming
campaigns"
COPE's memo also under
took to show where Senator
Kennedy received his largest
vote-where labor is strong
est. 1t pointed out: Further
proof that COPE, and trade
unionists in general, did yeo-
man work in helping to elect
Senator John F. Kennedy as
the next President Of the
United States is given by the
figures showing that Kennedy
won IS per cent of the big
city vote. Adlai Stevenson, the
1856 Democratic presidential
nominee, won only So per
cent. AnG in the Nations IA
largest suburbs, Kennedy re-
ceived 40 per cent vote to
Stevenson's 80 per cent.
"On the other hand in the
South, where there is the
smallest proportion Of union
members among workers than
anywhere in the United
States. the Pre- ;ident-elect
ran 2la per cent behind the
1856 candidate"
COPE sought to sustain the
argument that. had the reli-
gious issue not operated
against Senator Kennedy
"a Roman Catholic) in many
areas, he would have defeated
Vice President Nixon much
worse" 1t did not, however,
mention the fact that the
religious issue had materially
helped Senator Kennedy in
the very big cities where the
labor vote turned out for him
in such large numbers.
Wants Friends Appointed
Organized labor, having
delivered at the polls and
helped to make a Kennedy
victory possible-as well as the
election of many Democratic
members of of the House, and
to a lesser degree. Democratic
members of the Senate-may
be expected to press for Ken
nedy appointees to high Fed
eral Office favorable to the
cause of the unions. Indeed.
it is now reported that labor
is urging that labor repre-
sentatives and particular
friends be selected for high
office outside the Department
of Labor and the National
Labor Relations Board. 1t
wants to have a hand in the
administration of all govern
mental functions.
Furthermore, labor's de-
mands for legislation. for
amendments to the Taft
Hartley Act. for an increase
in the minimum wage, for aid

many workers are idle. may

Future Is Bright for Alaska Methodist U, States President McGinnis

Graduating seniors of Nome High School expressed much in- terest in the new Alaska Metho- dist College last evening at a banquet given by the new college, with it's president, Fred McGinnis, and academic dean, Herbert Hell Ter, addressing the students.
 "Never has the future of the school which opens its doors next fall, been brighter" predicted its president. The Methodist Church now has 138 colleges, 12 of which were started before Statehood was achieved, and all of which are non-denominational in it's teachings. The colleges are not to produce more Methodists, but to include certain Christian values into the education pattern"
 There have been over 500 appli- cations from teachers from all the 50 states for the 12 positions open on the first staff of the Alaska Methodist College.
 By the time school opens, there will be one dormitory completed, one building for classes, labs, ad- ministration, and housing for the faculty.
 The course of study offered is planned along modern concepts of teaching, integrating tn e many fields of learning in the humanities, social and natural sciences.

Almond May Order
ReopportionmentS Study

RICHMOND. Dec. 20 (AP)
The possibility of naming a
commission to study the thorny
problem Of legislative redis-
tricting is under consideration
by Gov. Almond.
The 1860 General Assembly
did nothing to pave the way
for the reapportionment of
House and Senate districts in
1862 which is called for in the
State constitution.
MY sole interest Is to be
helpful to the next General
Assembly" Gov. Almond said.
He retires as Governor a few
days after the 1862 legislature
opens.
There are supporting rea-
sons for having a commission
study" he said. I am still
considering the matter to. de-
termine what action I should
take In aid Of the Genreal
Assembly"
Based on the 1860 census,
