Carlyle-Tally Race Is Growing Warmer Tally Makes Attack On tprlyie's ... . foreign Policy Stand WILMINGTON "Peace can be won by keeping our superiority in top weapons, by the limited ex tension of aid to free countries working and arming with us and I by the unlimited extension around the world of America’s leadership, for .freedom and justice.” J. O. Tal ly, Jr„ candidate for congress from the Seventh N. C. district, said here today. - Tally emphasized that the Com- Qtnunist threat to “our life and lib erty” must be challanged when ever it raises its head. It is highly possible, he contin ued, that ’the kind of leadership given the nation by the next con gress may decide our destiny. Two years ahead may be the most cru cial time in the life of the nation, he added. “TRAGIC MISTAKE” “The present congressman from _the Seventh district,” Tally said, sjr‘repeatedly has stated that he might, for his oart, take our sol diers out of Korea and thereby abondon that country to Commun ism. To do that would be to even tually surrender japan, the Philip pines and the whole Pacific defense line. The present congressman has already tried to make a tragic mis take in our efforts to preserve that defense line.” Tally pointed out that months before the Korean war began it was sLjpbvious that this country’s economy 'and productivity would have to be boosted if it were to resist Com munist aggression. The President asked congress to pass a bill ex tending a modes amount of kid to Korea.

(CIO) charged today that workers in Erwin were being de liberately misled, not only about events at the Cleveland’ conven tion, but about his intentions. “I have no intention of taking over anything that belongs to the members of the union there,” he declared, “I am only’ appointed to administer, until such time as leaders are named who have not gone over to the AFL.” * r\ He said he was planning to work V'through members of the Erwin Lo cal Union who had not been in lavor of disaffiliation.

Ertel Carlyle of Lut/iberton today appealed to citizens of the Seventh District to “vote as you please next Satur- I day, but don’t let a few CIO labor bosses in New York tell you how to . vote.” Mr. Carlyle branded Mayor Joe Tally of Fayetteville, his opponent, as ."the candidate of the CIO” and pointed out that every CIO organ ization in the district is actively working and campaigning for Tally. "All the labor bosses in New York want.” declared Congressman Car lyle “is another puppet congress man who would ignore the wishes of the people and vote only the wishes of the CIO.” “I’m not going to do that. I never have and I never will,” said Car lyle, “and they know it. That’s why they’re for my opponent.” Congressman Carlyle pointed out that last year he and a number of North Carolina representatives in Washington, including Senator Clyde R. Hoey, were put on the ClO’s “black list,” and said, ‘"they’re trying to purge us from Congress because we don’t feel like turning control of this country over to the CIO bosses.” Mr. Carlyle said he was happy to see members of the union at Erwin repudiate and repudiate and reject the CIO, pointing out that Erwih’s union recently bolted from the CIO to the AFL after Union Manager Tom West accused Emil Rievve of “dictator methods.” “They tried to dictate in the splendid laboring people of Erwin just as they’re trying to dictate and demand the election of my opponent,” said " Carlyle. Mr. Carlyle declined to comment on reports that the CIO has poured “thousands 6f dollars” into the (Continued On Page two) elected officers as soon as an elec tion could be arranged. All would be Erwin people, he said. He pointed out that Anthony Va lente, President of- the AFL tex tile group, said that there was no agreement between him and George BaManzi to hold elections for election of members or the admin istrative officials, and said that changes in the constitution of the AFL organization to incorporate this and other proposals could not be made until the 1954 convention. Davis did admit that one local union in a northern town was split into different local unions, but wt the number at 35. These locals, however, were set up in different plants, he said, and not in dif ferent departments of ’one pliant l (Continued on yogs two) (She 3 ailij Western Germany Signs Peace Treaty Colonel Harrelson Resigns Position At State College CHAPEL HILL (U>) John W.

Dutson, sought for five months by Arizona authorities on polygamy charges, was arrested Saturday near Showlon, Ariz., on his way back to the home he once shared with the women and his 19 children.

The music of Stephen Foster so well loved by all Americans, will run through the entire operetta, including such haunting melodies as “Jeannie With The Light Brown Hair,” “Old Black Joe,” “In My Old Kentucky Home,” and many of the other favorites which have become immoralized in the mem ories of fine music lovers. WON WIDE ACCLAIM Manning Defends His Record Here City Manager Oliver O. Manning feels that perhaps much of the current unfavorable public reaction toward | himself and his office is traceable to a lack of understand- * ing on the part of the citizens of Dunn, of things accom- ?? plished since he has been in office. The City Manager declares that no complaint has gone unattended since he became City Manager, and that there have been more than 1,- 400. Only one in 40, he says, comes before the board, and therefore the rest remain unpublicized. But ac tion is taken on every complaint.
