The Democratic Party has been alert to the corroding and demoralizing effects of dishonesty and disloyalty in the public service. It has exposed and punished those who would corrupt the integrity of the public service, and it has always championed honesty and morality in government. The Loyalty Program of President Truman has served effectively to prevent infiltration by subversive elements and to protect honest and loyal public servants against unfounded and malicious attacks.

Men who are elected to high political office are entrusted with high responsibilities. Slander, defamation' of character, deception and dishonesty are as truly transgressions of God’s commandments when resorted to by men in public life as they are for all other men.
