MR WALLACE AND PRESIDENCY
U.S. LIBERAL PARTY'S DISAVOWAL (Rec. 9.30 p.m.) NEW YORK, Jan. 10. The Liberal Party’s State committee unanimously decided to reject Mr Henry Wallace’s candidacy for the Presidency of the United States on the ground that it “can serve only to weaken the democratic, liberal forces of our country.” The vice-chairman (Mr David Dubinsky) said that such unions as the Amalgamated Clothing Workers’, Automobile Workers’ and Steel Workers’ Unions—all of them affiliated with the Congress of Industrial Organisations—which left the American Labdur Party because of its endorsement of Mr Wallace’s candidacy, would be invited to join the Liberal Party.
