Minnesota farmer labor group eyes third party call
A conference of minority political and labor reps in Minnesota, convened by the farmer labor group, set up a 15 member organization to decide on a national third party convention. They will report tomorrow on whether to propose a call and how to structure representation and a draft declaration of principles. The group avoided endorsing a Roosevelt bid and moved to keep any third party effort out of state and congressional races. Governor Floyd B. Olson urged against entering a third party candidate in November to avoid harming the President.
