“Third Party”
Begins Today
(Continued from Page One)
issued today.
As for the platform, two days
of public hearings started today
but the first tentative draft of the
document was written ahead of
time, yesterday.
And it says—according to Dr.
Rexford Guy Tugwell, the plat
form chairman—that “Capitalist
America and Communist Russia
can and must live together in the
same world.”
It says the party “pledges it- J
self .through negotiation and dis
cussion with the Soviet Union, in
good faith, to find areas of agree
ment to win the peace.”
The two big labor combines,
AFL and CIO, were not among
the 60 groups, even though the
platform is certain to condemn
the Taft-Hartley labor law. They
didn’t even reply to the conven
tion invitation.
Wallace’s campaign manager, C.
B. Baldwin, said today the arrest
of Communist leaders means that
“for the first time in our history
the government has moved to out
law a political party.”
Baldwin also told a news con
ference it was a “remarkable co
incidence” that the government
should move against the Commun
ist Party during the same week
