Those who are hostile to labor and to the people generally and who de voted their energies to the serv ice of reaction and special inter ests, must be opposed. “We call upon the wage earners and the great masses of the people everywhere who stand for free dom, justice, democracy, and hu man progress, to rally in this cam paign to the end that the repre sentatives of reaction and special interests may be defeated and the faithful friends and servants of the masses elected. “Co-operation hereby urged is not a pledge of identification, with an independent party movement or a third party, nor can it be construed as support for such a party, group or movement except as such action accords with our non-partisan political policy. We do not accept government as the solution of the problems of life. Major problems of life and labor mujst be dealt with by voluntary groups and organizations, of which trade unions are an essen tial and integral part. f.
