Labor Secretary Urges AFL-CIO to
Speak ‘Loud and Clear in Politics
NEW YORK, (A*)—Secretary of*
Labor Mitchell said Tuesday or
ganized labor has both a duty and
a responsibility to speak out with
a “loud and clear” voice in poli
tics.
Mitchell’s remarks prepared for
the convention of the merged
AFL-CIO indicated, however, he
expects labor support to be given
to Republican Party policies rath
er than to those of Democrats.
His speech, like one delivered
by President Eisenhower Monday
to convention delegates via a long
distance hookup from Eisenhow
er’s Gettysburg headquarters, said
labor unions have a right to deal
in political issues.
Eisenhower said that in such
expression, the rights of minori
ties in unions having “differing
social, economic and political
views mnst be scrupulously pro
tected and their views accurately
reflected.”
The President and his Labor
Cabinet officer appeared to be an
swering, in part at least, the ex
pressed fears of some Republicans
that unions are taking too active
a political role. The speeches also
signaled an administration effort
to vie actively with the Defocrats
for the labor vote in the 1956
campaign.
Gov. Averell Harriman of New
York, a potential candidate for the
Democratic presidential nomina
tion next year, said in another
speech at the convention Tuesday
that “we need more, not less, par
ticipation by working men and
women in American political af
fairs.”
Harriman- saw “a glorious op
portunity” to increase national
production by 50 percent in the
next decade and thereby improve
living conditions. But “to get thi^
expansion, we must have wise and
progressive policies,”, he said.
“It is up to labor to make its
voice heard to bt sure we have
9-!
those policies,” Harriman added.
Harriman was given a standing
ovation as he entered the conven
tion hall and again when he con
cluded his address. He was ap
plauded 22 times during his
speech.
During his criticism of the Eis
enhower Administration a voice
from the audience shouted, “Give
’em hell, Averell,” a reminder of
the phrase often heard during for
mer President Harry S. Truman’s
campaign speeches.
Harriman at one point paid trib
ute to Truman’s attitude toward
labor and then added smilingly:
“I want to make it clear I am
not talking about politics this
morning; I’m just talking history.”
