Squelching Freedom in Labor Unions Across America
The piece argues that Communist influence in CIO unions threatens civil rights and democratic process. It cites department store workers fired for opposing pro Communist leadership, warns of contracts granting unions hiring and firing power, and calls for reform of Taft Hartley to protect workers while resisting subversion. It notes CIO leaders breaking with Communists yet powerless against purge clauses and suggests loyalty and democracy must prevail on even terms with subversion. It mentions Truman's non political tour and winds exposing grassroots politics across the country.
