New York City (ILNS)-Big Steel
has signed up with the SW0C to
keep right on with the hours, wages
and working conditions of the former
contract. The only change is that
either party can ask for a conference
to change on 10 days notice.
That is the way the man in the
street gets it. The lawyer would say
that officials of the United States
Steel Corporation, acting for its sub
salaries, had signed an agreement
with representatives of the Amalga-
mated Association of Iron, Steel and
Tin Workers and SO forth.
The contract keeps the basic wage
of So a day for hours, with time
and one-half for 40 hours per week.
The union deals for it's own members
which are an enormous majority in
all u. S. Steel plants; there is no clos
ed shop. The provision for paid va
cations for employees after 5 years
service is retained in the new contract.
So is the seniority system for pro-
motions and lay-offs, and the set-up
of grievance committees in the mills.
Abrogation Clause Included
The clause allowing either party
to get a conference on the contract
on 10 days notice, and the further
fact that after 10 more days of con-
ferring to no purpose, either party
may abrogate the contract, is an ele-
ment of danger to union standards,
especially in the event of price war
between steel companies.
Several factors, however, limit this
danger. The fact that the contract
was signed after one cut in steel
prices had been made shows that the
situation was seen clearly by both
situationwas clearly seen by both sides.
The further fact that after the 1887
contract was signed, the boost IN steel
prices was more than three times as
great as was needed to cover the in
creased labor costs shows that there
is a good deal of leeway for price
changes that will not affect labor.
The cut was announced by Tom
Girdler's Republic Steel Corporation
1t is $4 ton on some kinds of fin
ished steel, and amounts to about ST
per cent. 1t has been met by Big Steel
Pay Cutting Held Checked
"The signing of new agreements is
proof of the fact that the Steel Work
ers' organizing committee has proved
its responsibility during the life Of
the agreements which expire Febru-
airy 2s," said Philip Murray. He add
ed: eve are of the opinion that the
agreement definitely stems the tide o.
wage-slashing which has been immi-
nent throughout the country"

SEATTLE LABOR FIGHTS
DRIVE TO BOOST HOURS

Seattle, Wash. (ILNS) - Typo
graphical Local No. 202, has adopted
resolution urging the building
trades unions to resist all efforts of
the Associated Building Contractors
to go back to an eight-hour day from
the existing six-hour day. The local
also resolved to lend full support to
the building trades unions in their
efforts to maintain present working
agreements.

Miami (ILNS)-The tenuous con-
nection between three committee for
industrial organization unions and the
American Federation of Labor has
been severed by action of the feder-
atoms executive council in expelling
the unions, which heretofore have
been suspended"
The three unions are the United
Mine Workers of America, the In
ternational Union of Mine, Mill and
Smelter Workers and the Federation
of Flat Glass Workers of America
Charters of these organizations were
revoked
Possible action against the other
seven suspended CIO unions was de-
ferred until the next council meet
ing, beginning April % at Washring-
ton
Peace Efforts Go On
Decision to expel the three unions
confirms what has long been evident
in fact, and removes any ambiguity
in their status as suspended" organi-
cations. The executive councils ac-
tion is not expected to stop peace eff
forts, which, despite belligerent words
on both sides, are known to be con-
tinuing.
In announcing the councils deci-
sion, President William Green said he
was withdrawing as a member of the
United Mine Workers, to which he
has belonged for 48 years.
II am withdrawing my member
ship in the United Mine Workers" "
Green said. II am doing that in
order to follow a consistent course as
president of the American Federation
Of Labor"
Expulsion Resolutions Adopted
Two separate resolutions were
adopted by the executive council to
give effect to it's expulsion order.
The first, dealing only with the
miners, pointed out that the council
had been granted authority at the last
federation convention to revoke the
charter Of any suspended union which
joined the CIO. 1t said that all eff
forts made by and on behalf of the
A. F. of L. to effect unity and peace
in the ranks of organized labor have
been frustrated by the arbitrary and
dictatorial action Of the arbiters of
the United Mine Workers, who by

shame or slight on him. More
poignant in his heart was the hurt
there. 1t not only fingered, it grew.
He went to his room in faculty
tower, removed his nice clothes
and relaxed in lounging robe.
Even though it was now past

His ordered mind was no longer

He did not want to read, did not

books at hand. Some priceless vol

And there, too, were some Of the

At a. m. he was, therefore,
writing poetry.
Moreover, it was = beautiful
poetry, if somewhat abstract. He
had written such on occasions be-

the tremendous influence Of its cre-
alton, knew that any creative en-
deavor is likely to be potent spirit

poetry, rarely even showed It to
anyone because mathematician
theoretically IDEAL only in figures.
But that didn't matter. He got its

could appreciate and enjoy its
beauty.
| At 8 a. m. he was still writing
poetry, deep and vibrant.
Toward a. m. he tired Of il. He
sighed heavily then, wished to HIM

"WE'LL BE singing in the spring

Because Rice con-quers all-l-l-l-l!
Wen be marching on the gridiron,
Running, fighting, tearing through;
Victory is our goal line
All hail the gray and blu-u-u-ue!'
They reached a high note on the
final "blu-u-u-ue" and ended the
song in a burst of exhuberant
shouting. The words may have
been exaggerated bit, but the
tune was fast and swingy. ZEE
YEA-A-A-A-ho Vow" exploded
the yell leader. and bedlam shook
the dance hall.
The orchestra didn't have a
chance against the mass vocal
competition. The waltz therefore
evaporated, while the brasses
swelled into blaring accompani-
ment Of the singers. The crowd
had just about forgotten dancing,
anyway, and had gone in for i'm
promptu fun. Somebody showed
Sara Sue Davis into the center of
the circle, and she obligingly sang
the second stanza alone, leading
the crowd back in on the chorus.
Blue-and-gray balloons that had
boiled in air fountains all evening
were released now. Green paper
streamers speared the air from
every direction-green for fresh
men. Cellophane bags were dis
tributed, their glistening beauty
enhanced not by conventional con-
fetti, but refrigerated rose petals
to be used as such. Not only was
the great ballroom a melange of
color and action, therefore, but the
hilarity was further heightened by
delightful fresh rose perfume. The
freshmen had, indeed, "gone to
town" in staging their ball.
DR.. Thornton Holgate had edged
out Of the lounge in rather a pit
liable state. First he had stared at
Peaches-had held out a hand as
If in supplication. No doubt, too
he did stare owl-eyed at her, as she
drunkenly Informed the drunk
young man who was her compan-
ion. She had offered him a drink
from the young mans bottle, but
Thornton had only stared-owl-
eyed.
When Peaches and her man be-
gan a silly simpering at each
other, Thornton Holgate could only
turn and move away, dazed. This
was an experience utterly foreign
to him. He knew, Of course, that
some young people drank and ca
reused. He had read-but dis
counted-reports Of ribaldry In
colleges, but he had never been ex-
posed to any. He did not counte-

have forgiven Peaches if she had
slapped him, or spit on him. But

Should Be High Scoring
Game; Carbonen Stars
And Independents In
First Game

Nearing the end of their basket
ball season Key West High School
Conchs, of whom the local fans
are very proud, are taking on a
very peculiar team tonight at the
Gym in the Miami Military
Academy five.
This soldier bunch plays few
games each year, but when they
do play they really wage a bat
tie. What IS very significant to
local fans is that they walloped
Ponpano by II points. which the
Conehs weren't able to do.
The Academy is a hard-playing
bunch. and that is the type 70
play which appeals to the fans
They are in there every minute
and when they get the ball close
TO the hoop they keep jumping
and jumping and Shaping and
Shaping until they get the ball
through. That's mighty hard ball
TO beat. Fortunately, the COnchs
have two guards who are hard
fighters themselves, Lopez, who
was mentioned for all-state guard
last year, and WoodsOn. Their
brilliant play all year in getting
the ball off their own blackboard
has been a strong factor in the
High School wins.
The Conch offense is smooth,
steady and even brilliant at times
in this stage of the season and
should nobIy take care of the
shooting situation. They viii be
hard put to it tonight to keep up
with the Academy. It is general
ly expected that the scoring to-
night will be pretty heavy and
the laurel of victory viii go to
the five which can keep up the
scoring pace the longest.
A preliminary game will be an
other humdinger. The Carbonen
Stars and an Independent five
viii clash. This opener win be-
gin at us.
