The anti-communist Mundt bill
has already been approved by the

I am going to those hearings to
uphold the old fashioned fundamen
tal American principle of free
speech," Wallace said.
Desperation Seen
He said that "the attempt to
force the Mundt bill through the
senate in an atmosphere of arti
ficially created hysteria Indicates the
desperation of the anti-peace
forces,"
Wallnc and his running mate,
Sen. Glen Taylor (D-Idaho) were
on the same platform yesterday for
the first time in their campaign.
Taylor, whom Wallace referred to
as "the most courageous senator in
the last century," told an audience
of 1800 that European aid should
be administered through the United
Nations. He termed the Marshall
plan "a fake and a phoney."
Taylor said the United States Is
building an "armament economy"
and declared "once you get an arma
ment economy saddled on you, It la
almost impossible to get rid of It be
cause so many jobs depend on guns
and tanks."
He said he "had to go with Henry
Wallace because both the old parties
lost all their rip and go."
Sings With Family
After his talk, Taylor called his
wife and two sons to the platfor'A
to Join him In singing.
"When I was campaigning for the
senate I used to sing for you, and
I'm no better now," he declared.
Wallace said at press confer
ence that he ha no Intention of
withdrawing from the campaign.
It doesn't matter whether Elsen
hower or anybody else runs on th
democratic ticket. We're going right
through the election and beyond."
Wallace Issued two statement
during the day, one on the General
Motors-United Auto Workers set
tlement, the other on railroad labor.
Of the General Motors settlement,
Wallace said it will probably estab
lish a pattern which will be followed
in other plants and Industries.
"Although (the settlement) Is lest
than we should have liked to see, w
ean hope that this pattern can be
forced on big steel, the key Indus
try which has been adamant In It
refusal to meet the workers' de
mands, the statement said.
In the railroad labor statement,
he said "railroad management I
