TWO MEDFORD (OREGON) MAIL TRIBUNE Friday. October 14, 1955 G G G O O 0 Knight's Candidacy as President Probably Would Be Supported by Labor Sacramento, Calif. (U.R) If organized labor could select the next Republican presidential candidate, it probably would be Gov. Goodwin J. Knight of Cal ifornia. Knight insists his administra tion is one of "moderation" which rejects "the rigor mortis of the extreme right and the St. Vitus dance of the extreme left." But there is little doubt the 58-year-old California executive is labor's darling in the West. During the National Governors' conference in Chicago last sum mer, Knight was the only one of 48 governors attending who was invited to a meeting of the AFL National Executive board. One California labor official who was there said "In my 25 years as a delegate to the nation al AFL convention, I have never seen a governor so welcomely received a Republican govern or at that!" George Meany, president of the AFL, in an Aug. 15 speech in San Diego, said "America could use more Governor Knights." . ., The statement was made pub- Bank Cashier's Faint Scares Would-Robber New York (U.R) A would-be bandit handed a note to bank teller Beatrice Genoino, 23, tell ing her to "act natural" and hand over the money.' Miss Genoino didn't hand over the money but she acted natural. She fell to the floor in a semi faint, touching off a burglar alarm. The bandit 'fled empty-handed. licly at the state AFL conven tion where 3000 delegates gave Knight a five-minute standing ov ation before he spoke, then re peated the tribute after his ad dress. "The myth that labor repre sents everything in the Demo cratic party is exploded," Knight told a Republican rally here on Sept. 24. "There are literally thousands of Republicans in the ranks of labor and it is our job to merit their support." In a Sept. 3 address to the State Chamber of Commerce, Knight repeated what he had told the labor delegates: "I 'will never use the force of govern ment as a puntive instrument for the benefit of one group and the hurt of another." Translated into specifics, he .said he would veto any "right to-work legislation. He would not sign any secondary boycott or hot cargo laws that labor found undesirable. He stood for strengthening labor's position in jurisdictional strike laws. And he said he would support legisla tion to "implement any negotia ted guaranteed annual wage program." In another speech Knight said "It is generally assumed that organized labor will merge mem berships during the final months of this year. By this action will POISON OAK?

By this merger labor wil become a tremendous political force, since it is esti mated that the members of the two organizations along with their families ana well wishers will constitute 75 per cent of the entire population of registered voters in the United States." Since its first census in 1840, Michigan has grown at a more rapid rate than the nation as a whole except for the two de cades 1890-1910. USE -RUDY-MIX CONCRETE-' Phone 2-5336 or 2-5897 M. C.
