Robert A, Taft (R-Ohio) has denied that he promised to help Sen. Wayne I Morse (R-Ore) get a seat on the Senate Foreign Relations Com mittee. "I never made any such com mitment to Senator Morse," Taft said when questioned at conference here Tuesday. Morse, when he was attempting to get the post created by the death of Sen. Arthur Vandenburg (R-Mich), said Taft had once agreed to help him get it. The post went to another senator. A meeting to organize a com-1 mittee of active political workers which would attempt to cure what was termed labors "pathetic" voting record in Lane County drew some 50 labor leaders to the Labor Temple Tuesday night. Joe Willis, secretary of Roofers Local 156, AF of L, presided as temporary chairman of the meet ing, called by the Central Labor Council. Following an open meet ing, about 20 persons met to or ganize a political committee. Emphasizing the need for po litical activity by representatives of organized labor, Willis said, "On politics rests the entire des tiny of the working man. . . We must protect our gains by favor able political action. We must save the friends we have In Con gress' and put more friends of labor in." THE QUESTION was raised i but not settled in the open meet- i ing of whether the local commit- ! tee should affiliate with the na tionwide Labor League for Politi cal Education or operate as an independent body. Willis explained that the Labor League is designed to support the friends of labor on local, state and national fronts. Some persons at the meeting thought that if the committee were kept on a local level It would swing more weight with local voters. Joseph Ayers, of Springfield, thought that an education com mittee which would "let us know both sides" would be desirable. He stated that with only one daily newspaper in this area the voter had to "read between the lines," getting a "negative view." The need and methods for reg istering eligible, voters was dis cussed at length. Proposals were made to enroll workers during their lunch periods by setting up "a fixed place of business" as re quired by law when an organiza tion is registering voters. Willis also deplored the "re strictive laws" which are hem ming in labor on all sides, stating that the "present big wages won't be worth a plug nickel" unless labor asserts itself.

Will you please tell me more about a Comprehensive Personal Liability policy that you mentioned to me one time?
