C.—A Philip Randolph—long known for his in dependent thinking — refused to go along with the rest of .tiie chiefs of the AFL-CIO and was the sole one of 150 to vote against endorsing Senator John F. Ken nedy for President of the United States. "Thoro it not enough dif ference between them (Nixon and Kennedy) to juttlfy a choice," was his comment. Thus the vote went 149 for Ken nedy and one 'against Kennedy. Randolph wanted to start a new party—a labor party. But Presi dent George Mcaney squelched the idea and thought that all labor should work with the present two party system. USHERS SPEAKERS — Asa T. Spaulding, left.
