FARLEY SAYS RETURNS FROM
ALASKA INDICATE NATION TO
CO PRESIDENT ROOSEVELT
(By The Associated Press)
NEW YORK, Sept. 11—Demo
cratic Chairman James A. Farley
suggested “It is time to change
the ancient by-word of the past
from, As Maine goes so goes the
Nation, to “As Alaska goes so
goes the Nation.”
The past thirty years, he said,
Alaska has gone republican when
the national election went repub
lican, and gone democratic when
the national election went demo
cratic, except in 1912 when Wil
son was elected as a result of a
republican split.
National Democratic Commit
teeman for Alaska, J. A. Hellen
thal, sent Chairman Farley word
that the entire democratic ticket
carried the election last Tuesday
in Alaska by more than three to
one majority.
“The Alaska verdict, because of
a similarity of economic interests
can be taken as an indication of
what is going to happen in the
Western States November 3rd,”
said Farley.

(By The Associated Press)
WASHINGTON, D. C., Sept. 10.
—The American Federation has
declared war on the Committee
for Industrial Organization for
control of organized labor in the
United States. Open warfare
broke out as the ten unions in the
committee headed by John L. Le
wis, president of the United Mine
Workers, passed out of the Fed
eration, in itself a historic inci
dent in American labor history.
Whether they had been suspend
ed or had withdrawn was debat
ed. “They’re out of the Federa
tion, that’s clear,” said William
Green, A. F. of L. president, at a
press conference. The ten unions
affiliated with Lewis claim to rep
resent 1,100,000 workers in the
coal, steel, garment, textile auto
mobile rubber, metal, mine flat
glass and oil fields and refinery
industries.
