NEW AMERICAN
LOOKING T0°40, TESTS POWER ~ WITH FALL ELECTION TICKET
Pushes Efforts to Muster
Lehman and F. D. R. as Barometer of Strength.
BY RODNEY:DUTCHER . NEA Service Staff Correspondent . NEW YORK, Bept. 7—This year’s Labor Day finds a large group of organized workers embarked on the Most important attempt labor has yet made to organize and wield its pélitical power. NT ~ The American Labor Party will hive a column on the ballot in New York state. From several angles it isfone of the most interesting factors
in the national campaign.
The A. L. P. leaders seek to get ott a big vote for Roosevelt and Gov.
Lehman in New York's industrial official candidates on the ballot. (A.
League, which functions elsewhere for
litical party.) The big idea of A. L. P., however, is to test whether it is practical now to form a national labor party in the United States. The leaders privately say that's why they created it. ; Most Roosevelt voters will mark their crosses in the Democratic ¢column. But if enough of them take the trouble to sign up under the clasped-hands emblem of A. L. P,, some of the ablest and strongest labor leadlers in the United States will feel justified in spreading the party. into the other states. They believe they can quickly find strong nuclei in the industrial East, Wisconsin, Minnesota and the Pacific Coast. The test in New York state will. cost more than $100,000.
Takes Over Tammany’s Job
Tammy, according to many rumors in New York, will “lie down” on Roosevelt and Lehman in the November election. If it does, and Roosevelt still carries his home state by a small plurality, the ef-
forts of the A. L. P. may well appear |
to have decided the result.
For the A. L. P. is going to see to it that thousands of union members
ring the doorbells which Tammany [#1 It | presents itself as the antidote for |
rings when it seeks a big vote.
Tammany defection.
Finally, a large part of whatever credit the A. L- P. gets will have to go to a woman—Mrs. Elinore M. Herrick, the new party's state campaign director. Mrs. Herrick is a person who always goes places when she starts. The party platform calls for de-3 feat of “the combination of reac-f tionary anti-labor and anti-social forces headed by Gov. Alf M. Lan< don,” for election of Roosevelt; Lehman and “independent candi< dates sponsored and approved by the American Labor Party of Ne York State and committed to it§ political, social, and legislative program and objectives.” It also calls for securing “the enactment in the coming Congress and the state Legislature of an adequate and effective program of sosial legislation.”
Backed by Labor Chiefs ~
The big men of Labor's NonPartisan League, of course, are the driving forces behind A. L.. P.—John Lewis of the United Mine Workers, Sidney Hillman of the Amalgamated Clothing Workers, George - Berry of the Pressmen, David Dubinsky of the International Ladies’ Garment Workers, and others—although none of those named is an official of A. L. P. | President George Meany of the New York State Federation of Labor is on the State Executive Board. Other unions affiliated include those of retail glerks, furriers, millinery workers, and motion picture operators. | In the current campaign, A. L. P. leaders actually hope to line up 150,000 people who wouldn't vote. for Roosevelt—or at all—without special pressure. These theoretically will come from large numbers who never bothered to vote before, from Soicialists—whose right wing leaders already are afliliated—from purists who can stomach neither the upstate Republican machine nor Tammany, and from a large force of floating radical votes which accept neither major party. Offices will be set up in larger cities of the state.
Strong Organization Built
In New York the Tammany form of organization has been adopted— leaders for each assembly district and captains for each election district. All union members who can be: persuaded (and union discipline among about 100,000 needle trades workers is very strong) will be put at work on the doorbells, calling for Roosevelt-Lehman votes. Literature will be distributed through industrial areas. Mass meetings are being held. Memberships will be sold for 50 cents #piece and affiliated unions will pay in 10 cents per capita to the A, L. P. treasury. : The A. L. P. is now struggling to assure itself a place on the New York state ballot—a complicated and tricky process requiring 50 signatures of especially qualified citizens in every county. _ Luigi * Antonini, picturesque vice president of the garment workers’ union, is chairman of the party. President Rose Schneiderman of the Women's Trade Union League is vice president. Jacob 8S. Potofsky, assistant president of the Amalgamated, is ch4irman of the executive co .
Mrs. Herrick— Dynafio”
The extraordinary Mrs. Herrick, a solid, forceful, fast-thinking, vivacious woman, is sometimes described as a “dynamo” or a “whirlwind.” : ~ She was born in New York, daughter of a Unitarian minister. After a college education she was married, widowed, and left with two sons. : . + To support herself and family _ ‘she took in washing.

TODAY IS OUR
by NARD JONES
BEGIN HERE TODAY Judith Howard, engaged to Stephen Fowler for four years, breaks the engagement because Stephen is unwilling to marry her and let her continue with her job. Judith is encouraged in this move by her friend, Virginia Bent. Lonely and unhappy, Judith goes for as walk and steps in front of an approaching automobile. To aveid hitting her, the driver swerves and strikes a fire hydrant. He Is injured and taken to a hospital. Judith, feeling responsi. ble, goes along. At the hospital young Dr. Eden Harris tells her the motorist’'s injuries are not serious, Later Dr. Harris takes her home. In a burst of confidence Judith fells him about her broken engagement. Next day Judith goes to the office of Francis Jarvis, the injured man, to apologize for her thoughtlessness. Several ‘days pass and Dr. Harris invites Judith to dinner. Later he is obliged to break the engagement. 5 Judith hears that Steve has landed a big contract and bought a new car. . Francis Jarvis comes to see her. He has been drinking and Judith is wondering how to get rid of him when Dr. Harris arrives. NOW GO ON WITH THE STORY
CHAPTER TEN R. HARRIS' expression was so bland that for a moment Judith feared he had failed to understand she really wanted to be rid of Jarvis.
“Indeed, yes,” Eden Harris said. “I remember Mr. Jarvis perfectly.”
He held out his hand, and Jarvis|
accepted it without enthusiasm. “Personally I've no objection to your company,” the young doctor added. “But if Miss Howard feels that you should leave, then of course . = The other's face clouded un pleasantly. - “Are you suggesting, Doctor, that you'd put me out!” “Oh, not,at all,” Harris answered. “At least not yet. For the moment
I'm merely suggesting that you act
the part of a gentleman, and accept Miss Howard's® invitation to leave. If you don't do that, then it becomes a rather personal matter between us.” Jarvis said nothing. Slowly he got to his feet and walked toward Eden Harris. Then, without warning, he struck out at him viciously. But the young physician was apparently prepared. With surprising swiftness he blocked Jarvis' wild swing. ‘Don’t be a fool,” he said quietly. “And don’t make your presence here any more unpleasant than you have already.”
s 8 2
VOIDING Judith’s gaze, Francis Jarvis dropped his hands. Then quickly he took up his hat and stick and left the apartment. Wearily Judith sank into a chair. “Oh, but I'm glad you came!” she breathed thankfully, “As much as I'd like to pose in the role of Galahad,” Harris assured her, “I'm afraid your friend would be perfectly harmless. Even if I hadn't arrived on the scene I'm sure you could have squelched him.” He chuckled softly to himself. “Yes . . . Francis Jarvis is one of these bluffs who go around in the armor of a gentle alcoholic buzz.” He dropped down beside Judith, folding his legs under him tailor-fashion. “Tell me, what have you been doing since I abandoned you in that restaurant?” Judith laughed. “Oh, I've been ordering men out-of my apartment.” “So 1 see.” She looked down at’ him affec-
| tionately. “Seriously, I've been bored
to death.” » “Wondering whether you needed a doctor?” “I wouldn't admit that.” “Have you forgotten the—the boy friend?” » ” »
UDITH was silent a moment, and Harris said, “I'm sorry. I shouldn't: have asked that.” “Why not? I'll answer it. I'm afraid I haven't ... quite.” “Did you think that Jarvis might help you to forget him?” “Oh, no!” Judith turned to him quickly. “You see, the day after the accident I went to his office to give him my name and address, because the accident was my fault. I haven't seen him from that day until this.” : “Evidently he mistook purpose.” Judith nodded. “Yes... . “Well!” Harris reached into his pocket, brought out a well-worn pipe and a tobacco pouch. “What do you say we talk about something pleasant? And do you mind if I smoke a very reprehensible pipe?” “Yes to the first question and no to the second,” laughed Judith. What had threatened to be an unpleasant evening turned out to be a thoroughly delightful one. Released from his arduous.duties, Eden Harris relaxed entirely in Judith’s company. When the Bents dropped in, an hour later, they found the two in the kitchen making candy.
” » =
“I’M speechless,” Virginia exclaimed. “I never again expected to.see a male and female in the kitchen making candy. I thought that had been replaced by the quaint custom of male and female making whoopee.” Eden Harris grinned. “Judith and I are very old-fashioned for our age.” And when Harris had gone, Virginia whispered to Judith, “Darling. I like that man!”

changed as the days went by. Virginia Bent noticed it almost at once; and she told Bob, “Judy's coming | I was afraid for a

She would never have been so optimistic if she had known that on this very day Steve telephoned Judith, asked her to meet him for luncheon, and that she had accepted. » = » ND it was indeed a different Steve who met Judith Howard in the little restaurant around the corner from the building where she worked, He wore a new suit—a bet-’ ter suit than he had owned for a long time. He seemed utterly sure of himself now, and much more like the Steve Fowler who had, so long ago, offered to see that her ice skates were sharpened properly. “It's been a long time,” he said, looking at her across the table. “Yes,” Judith said, avoiding his direct gaze. “I know it has, Steve.” “Why did you let me see you today when all the other times you refused ” She looked up at him, “Because it'd .been such a long time I thought we could talk now—soberly and sensibly.” “Do you know why I wanted to See you?” 2 # ”
HE question startled her. What reason would there be, except that—well, that he wanted to see her? “I've heard about you and ‘this fellow Jervis,” Steve was saying coldly; “And I understand there's some , doctor you've been running around with, too.” For a full minute Judith was so astonished that she could not answer. Then she said, “Steve, that's too absurd even to comment upon.” She paused. “I've seen Jarvis twice. And Dr. Harris three or four times. You know how I got acquainted with them?” Steve nodded. that isn't what is important. What's
important is that when a girl has | sch . Washington st. ‘ Friday, Sept. 18—Creigh’s Dru 1 Bore:

done that, Steve.” “Of course you'd say that.”
"What happens
The remark was like a whiplash. ” 2 .
ER swift anger seemed fo soften him. “But Judith, I... doesn’t the fact that I still care what you do—doesn’'t that mean anything to you? Doesn't it mean that I still feel the way I always did?” “I don’t know what it means; Steve. All I know is that we came to the end of things for the two of us.” “But that isn’t true,” he said quickly. “Judith, I—I've had some luck. It looks now as if I'll be able to do what I wanted all along. Marry. you on an income that will let you quit your job.” {or . breath was

To tell him that her hours awdy fro im had been a hell on earth, and— But something wiser than her heart kept her silent. She kept thinking stubbornly, “I've got to get away, and try to see what's happened to me.” At 1 o'clock she left a puzzled Steve; and that night she hurried from the office early, avoiding Virginia. She held her seclusion into the next day. going to work long before Virginia had come to her door. But at noon young Mrs. Bent sought her out, shoved a newspaper in front of her. “You may as well see this now as later, Judith.” 8 .
