POLITICS.
1- “There is danger that public indifference will
be bred of the familiarity with the rabble-rousing
ring of Robert R. Reynolds’ call to his new so-called
‘Nationalist’ party. Reynolds, North Carolina’s
junior Senator in the last session of Congress, has
not displayed the degree of sinister genius that mak
es a “Kingfish”. Neither has Gerald L. K. Smith
or some other agitators distinguished by their
sound and fury. But there is a menace in the sin
ister kind of people attractei by the savage prejud
ices given play in the dogmas that the rabble rous
ers offer. It was on such foundations that Huey
Long was building his autocracy when he died, and
on which the fascist dictatorships were established
in Europe... .Rynolds does not appear to have the
talent to disrupt, but he is active to provide what
may be a tool ready for a master hand.”
(San Francisco Chronicle. January 15, 1945) .
2, “Will the current war be followed by the es
tablishment of new political parties in America, or
perhaps by the transformation of all but the names
of the old ones... .Our present parties are the out
come of the Civil war and of the controversies which
preceded and followed it. . . .Now we have a Demo
cratic party whose core is the Solid South, still vot
ing immovably on the race question on which Mr.
Roosevelt is now the chief leader, in precept and in
enforcement action, on the other side. In addition,
this Southern oligarchy is the center of holdover

Klu Kluxism, anti-foreign and anti-Catholic, while
the second major strength of the party is foreign,
minded groups in the great Northern cities, with the
bosses who deliver them, and the radical city labor
parties, whose unionism this same oligarchy is re
solved, at all costs, to keep out of the South. None
of this, of course, makes sense in terms of today.
But the Suth still votesNor is voted—that way, fori
reasons which its rulers thought good in their grand
fathers’ time. The position of a still dominant ele
ment in the Republican official organization makes
as little sense, in its repudiation of Republican
Presidents, presidential nominees and platforms,
and m its oblivion to the present state of the Nation
and the world. ” ✓
(San Francisco Chronicle. Jan. 16. 1945. Column by Chester Powell)
3. “So far as we are informed the Reverend
Powell, prominent and directing Democrat and
Roosevelt New Dealer of New York, who has taken
a seat in congress to which he was elected by the
New York Democrats, retains his reverend. Some
ministers who became political officeholders prefer
not to be known as reverend and1 their wishes should
be complied with. The Reverend Powell is pastor
of the Abyssinian church. He is of the race of Dem
oerat Dawson, representative in congress of a Chi
cago district. The national Democratic party of
Reverend Powell and his ‘race’ comrade from Chi
cago are the Democratic comrades of the ‘Regulars’
who carry the election in South Carolina.”
(Charleston News and Courier. January 15, 1945).
4. “hrom Look-out to St. Mary’s the shadow of
Ole Gene hangs over Georgia’s politics now. It’s
about time for him to be coining back, political
soothsayers think. He seems to be thinking it, too.
Ole Gene... .has come out against the poll tax, to
the awful embarrassment of some of his grass root
friends but with a political wisdom that is going to
pay dividends. It won’t be hard for him to make
his followers see that the poll tax has nothing to do
with Negro voting... .What Gene has done with his
startling stand against the poll tax is to take much
wind ou of Gov. Ellis Arnall’s sails. The governor
has just asked1 for repeal of the tax, and the picture
of brave and liberal leadership is dimmed by this
Talmadge support. It is dimmed, too, by the fact
that Gov. Arnall waited too long to take the step.
As Ellis Arnall comes out against the poll tax now. .
things are different. The year has brought many
changes. He has come to be known as a great and
good friend of Henry Wallace, as a 100 percent Nev
Dealer, as a White House disciple who sometimes
gets White House signals mixed. His stand against
the poll tax has the slightly mildewed aspect now of
all things inverterately New Deal.”
Draft Boards Move
I Into Unified Office
In an effort to cut red-tape in the
handling of problems for returning
veterans, the 10 selective service lo
cal boards of Douglas county will be
moved to a unified office at 1440
First National Bank Building, Om
aha, by February 28. Lt. Col- H. R.
Turner of Lincoln, assistant state
selectiye service director, announced
Colonel Turner said the move is
being made for the principal purpose
of avoiding the necessity of shuttl
ing returning veterans from one of
fice location to another when they
report to local boards following dis
charge- Lancaster county’s four lo
cal hoarH*?
operating from a central office lo
cation for several months
He said the move of the Douglas
county local boards will not mater
ially affect the present number of
employees the boards have.
The Douglas county selective ser
vice local boards- their present ad
dresses and the dates each will move
to the 14th floor of the First Nat

Like an eager dog on a leash, the train
waits at the station — impatient to start its

That's railroad language meaning "test air
