Parker Calls On Business People *To Take Active Part In Politics

► ► ai Crawford F. Parker Business and white collar workers were urged by Lieuten-ant-Governor Crawford F. Parker at die Republican rally ini Syracuse last night to take ol more aggressive role in the coming election. Speaking in the high school | auditorium following an ox roast attended by a record crowd of i well over a thousand people Parker said: “Business. professional’ people and white collar workers! are becoming more interested in politics than ever before, a fact i which will have a profound and ; constructive effect on our future “For the first lime in Ameri-; can history, this year, the number of white collar workers has passed that of all other workers in industry." the Republican nominee for governor said. Parker continued. “Undoubtedly you have seen many newspaper and magazine articles this year telling about the phenomenon of business in politics. Act I ually. this isn’t new. Before I was!

so was Harold Handley, Senator Capehart and many others of our state and national officials. "The difference now is that business and corporate management are actively encouraging executives and white collar workers to get out and work in the party of their choice. "Top management used to look a-kance at such activities, it wasn't considered 'good business’ to take part in politics. “Corporation personnel have realized now. however, that they have been missing an opportunity to sell free enterprise direct to the public through political participation. “Labor organizations, as everyone knows, haven’t made this mistake. “However, present day view [ is that in all this effort, corpor ptions and business generaly should not dictate to employees how to vote. "Corporations cannot make | political contributions. Labor unions are not supposed to do so j either. but COPE (Committee On Political Education) gets around I this be providing workers and rears during registration and on election day. This is a contribution far more valuable than money would be “To work in politics on whati iver side he wishes should be en- . couraged. But businessmen and I women, professional people and : white collar people have not been encouraged to do so here : tofore. We haven’t seen enough of these people on election day.” Parker concluded his appeal with "If you are a doctor or law- ; yer. a member of management, a merchant, or white collar worker, the Republican party needs you and America needs you."

Congressman Halleck Urges Strong GOP Vote in November

Charles A. Halleck. Congressman from Indiana's second district. said at Syracuse Monday night: "In Nixon and Lodge we have the two ablest men on the American scene to deal with Khrushchev and the Russian program. Likewise, these two men are familiar with the domestic situation and can give the country the best leadership there is. “State and county candidates in Indiana are well chosen to follow through with local leadership. "We need Republicans in Congress. The Democrats can't agree on what should be done. In the six years that they have outnumbered the Republicans two to one. it is the minority Republicans who have taken the lead in the big questions and iri the farm issue. "A strong vote in November will put the Nixon-Lodge ticket in office and a Republican majority in Congress.” Halleck spoke at the Republican rally last night which completed the county-wide tour by the GOP caravan of state and county candidates. The program was brief with Congressman Halleck apd Lt. Governor Parker the only speakers. Halleck is seeking reelection as congressman from the second district and Parker is the candidate for governor of Indiana. All candidates that were on tour Monday were introduced during the program which followed the ox roast at the school grounds. The program was held to minimum time and adjourned by 8 p.m. so that all who wanted to listen to the Nixon-Kenndy televised debate could do so. THE SYRACUSCENE . . .
