Lobor's Power

In view OF Cne SC0cK mar
ket'S behavior, Gould Lin
coins recent column entitled
What Price the Labor Vote I?
bears repeating in part. He
stated Business and inves-
tors have been shaken since
the fierce Kennedy outbreak
against the steel companies.
The stock market has react
ed unfavorably. President
Kennedy's recent address to
the United States Chamber
of Commerce, in which he
sought to impress its men,
bers and the country at large
that he is not an enemy of
business, contained no sug-
gestion that he would not
act again against any indus
try as he did against steel
if occasion arose. And it is
noticeable that he made no
appeal to the Chamber of
Commerce for support in
electing the kind of Congress
he desired"
Mr.. Lincoln further stated
"The Presidents appeal for
labor votes, in contrast to his
attitude toward the business
men of the Chamber of Com
merce, is another measure to
set workers against the en-
ployers - to divide class
against class in the field of
politics.
The powers that = be had
better get wise to the fact
that the people, in addition
to the investors, are deeply
concerned with national
problems, and are beginning
to read the fine print, as
well as the print not so fine"
and examine things closely.
Loss of confidence in the
present administration is
rampant.
President Kennedy has
made in messages to Congress
81 demands for more spend
ing and Is demands for more
presidential power all with
in the first four-and-a-half
months of this year.
1t appears that the real is
sue that is being evaded, as
voiced by David Lawrence, is
whether the economy of the
United States shall continue to
be operated under a formula
by which Federal laws re-
strain management but not
labor unions.

outgoing President Prado-is-
sued a special communique re-
serving their right to judge
after the election whether "the
popular will has been falSified."
Threaten Intervention
Throughout the bitter cleo
ton campaign the military has
been carefully preparing the
ground for intervention They
have turned up proof" of ir-
regularitieS in voter registra-
ton to substantiate any later
charges Of election fraud
against APRA.
On the other hand, the mill
tary leaders are reported to be
deeply impressed by massive
popular support Mr.. Haya de
la Tore has rallied during the
campaign. His final election
rally in Lima attracted a cheer
ing crowd estimated at 100000
more than double what any
of his opponents attracted. Fol-
lowing this display, the military
leaders opened talks with the
APRA about conditions for ac-
cepting an APRA government.
In his final election rally Mr..
Belaunde Terry seconded the
military charges. He called
upon his followers to go into
the streets in revolt if the mill
tary determines the election is
fraudulent.
The Third Candidate
The third major candidate in
the presidential race, Manuel
Odria, may well hold the key
to the outcome. He is the OBJ
vious choice of Peruvian con-
servatives. He was president
dictator before President Prado
took office in 1856. His present
campaign for a ome-back has
a Madison avenue Smoothness
| financed by the well-to-do in
the capital.
Symptomatic of the times,
few observers consider it likely
that this campaign will carry
the day on Sunday. Mr.. Odria
is too closely associated with
that old order which even a
good part Of the oligarchy now
admits must be changed.
The real strength Of the Cd
ria forces is their bargaining
power. BY the Peruvian consti-
tuition, the winning candidate
must get at least one-third Of
the expected two million votes.
If none of the three and three
minor candidates succeeds, the
election is thrown into the new
Congress converting in July.
That body must choose by a
simple plurality from among
the top three contenders.
Could Decide President
Mr.. Odria could well elect the
next Peruvian president by
throwing his support to one or
the other of the two leading
candidates.
On the other hand, it is
equally possible that one of
these two candidates could give
their support to Mr.. Odria and
get him elected in any con-
greSsional run-off.
The great danger at the mo-
ment. however, is that neither
the ballot box nor Darkroom
bargaining in the halls of Con-
gress will decide the Peruvian
future. Military intervention to
annul the elections could well
set off mass violence and
bloodshed which would rock the
hemisphere and topple the fra
gile Peruvian establishment.

United States officials are
holding their breath while
awaiting tomorrow's crucial ma
tionai elections in Peru.
Tie elections for Congress
and President are considered
a major challenge for democ-
racy and the Alliance for Prog
reSs in Latin America.
Peruvian military leaders
openly threaten to take over
the government if Victor Raul
Haya de la Tore is elected
President.
For over 80 years this sea-
Soned revolutionary" lea del
and his American Popular Rev.
dictionary Alliance have been
engaged in a running feud with
the Peruvian oligarchy.
For the last three days Mr.
Haya de la Tore and his lieu
tenants have been engaged in
intensive discussions with mill
tary leaders. In an effort to
win them over. he is reported to
have pledged that he would not
intervene in the military estab-
| liShment if elected.
Authorities here feel that q
military coup d'etat in Peru
would give further impetus to q
disturbing movement already
evident in Latin America. Al
the end of March, the military
deposed President Arturo From
dizi in Argentina, and twice
within q month President Ro-
mulo Betancourt of Venezuels
has had to put down bloody
revolts in the navy and ma
rineS.
Danger Acute in Peru

olution is more acute in Peru

ing from a feudaliSm based or

Consistent Opponent

THE Socialist Party has been
a consistent opponent Of the
Smith and McCarran Acts al
though the American Commu-
mist Party has supported the
use of the Smith Act against
it's political adversaries."
The Socialist statement said
the party's opposition to COM
munism is in no sense akin to
that of the ultra-right which
identifies Communists wit h
Socialists, despite their obvi-
GUS and irreconciliable differ
ences. We reject this identifi-
cation from either the right or
the Communist Party"
The Socialists went on to say
they had seen no evidence that
the American Communists have
abandoned subServience to
Russian leadership.

ans have been flooding down
from the high sierra of the
Andes to form human moats of
misery around the big coastal
cities.
The existing government I'M
der President Manuel Pra do
and his Prime Minister, Pedro
Beltran, embarked on limited
reforms. But the feeling has
grown that drastic and ac-
celebrated reforms are necessary
if mass revolt is to be avoid
ed.
The aim of the inter-Ameri-
can Alliance for Progress is to
stimulate these economic and
social reforms with well-placed.
well-controlled United States
aid. But the premise of that
aid has been that it should go
to democratic governments.
Two of the three major can
didates for the presidency are
pledging radical reform. One is
Mr.. Haya de la Tore. and the
other is Fernando Belaunde
Terry, head of the leftist Popu-
lar Action Party.
In contrast to Mr.. Haya de
la Tore, Mr.. Belaunde Terry
is young, American-educated.
and a member of an old es-
tabliShed Peruvian family. Up
until 1856, when he finished a
close second in the presidential
race, he was a relatively I'M
known young architect.
Because of his background
and his relative newneSs, Mr..
Belaunde Terry seems far more
acceptable to the conservative
classes and the military. Yet,
in many ways his program is
far more obscure, and poten-
TALLY more dangerous than
that of Mr.. Haya de la Tore
While saying he is not a Com
muniSt, Mr.. Belaunde Terry has
refused to take a firm position
against Castro Cuba and Cas-
tro followers in Peru. In fact,
he had limited he would restore
relation with Cuba.
Opposed by Two Groups
Mr.. Haya de la Tore, on
the other hand. is anathema
both to Communists and en-
trenched wealth in Peru. He is
considered the father of nom
Communist "leftism" in Latin
America. He has had guiding
influence on many Of the pres
ent rulers of the continent
among them, President Victor
Paz EStenSsoro of neighboring
Bolivia, and President Betan-
court.
Until the emergence of Mr..
Belaunde Terry and his Popu-
lar Action Party, Mr.. Haya de
la Tore and APRA had a mo-
nopoly on mass political Or
ganization in the country.
For the past six years APRA
has spent much time and en-
ergy trying to convince the
military that an APRA govern
ment would not spell complete
ACKNOWLEDGMENT of the estab-
liShed order.
The campaign began when
APRA threw its support in
1856 behind Mr.. Prado, thereby
guaranteeing his election.
AS a result, APRA regained
legality after years of being Of
ficially outlawed, and President
Prado has had a more or less
workable majority in the Con-
gresS.
Under the Peruvian constitu.
ton, Mr.. Prado cannot run fol
reelection. APRA has moved II
widen its popular support anC
split the conservative opposi-
ton by putting up joint candi-
date lists with the Prado party
in many districts.
Mr.. Haya de la Tore has
also taken a soft" line on ex-
preparation Of land and oil, on
the ground that private invest
ment must not be frightened"
by wild talk of appropriation
without compensation.
This campaign for respecta-
bility has been only partially
successful. Last Saturday the
ministers of the three armed

Thomas Talks
To Socialists

Norman Thomas, 77-year-old
leader Of the Socialist Party,
will address the party's national
convention banquet at Z o'clock
tonight in the Raleigh Hotel.
Also on the speakers list
with Mr.. Thomas, who ran for
President six times, will be
Michael Harrington, editor Of
the Socialist newspaper New
America, and James Farmer,
national chairman of the Con-
gress Of Racial Equality.
The party convention will
wind up its three-day session
tomorrow at noon with election
of national committee and ma
tional chairman, according to
Irwin Suall, national secretary
of the party. Present national
chairman is Darlington Hopes.
Reject Communist Appeal
The party yesterday rejected
a unity appeal from the Ameri-
can Communist Party, accord
ing to a statement from Mr..
Thomas, Mr.. Hopes and Max
Schachtman, national commit
tee member. The three Social
list leaders said:
THE Communist Party today
has asked the Socialist Party to
join it in common action, say
in that this will unite some of
the best fighters for peace and
democracy
I'VE cannot accept the Com
munist Party's description of
itself as fighters for peace and
democracy Communists have
never stood for democracy or
civil liberties in any nation
where they have achieved
power.

defeat Gaithersburg's three-time

one source in recent weeks.
A second report of meeting

a statement from Roy d. Hoppe,

that there is no provision in

Rockville's M a yor and
Council this week retained
an engineering firm to draw
up plans for a Park st.
underpass, a move which
promises action to correct
one of the city's worst traf-
fic bottlenecks.
Chosen for the planning was
the Baltimore firm Of Ewell,
Nelson and Bomhardt. Its fee
of 51s per cent will run to APP
proximately $500 of the expect
ed $150,000 construction cost.
This is the first step in a
complicated series of steps to
straighten out the underpass

solution.
