City and County Officials
Grunt Permits For
Parade and Fire

Wheeling, w. Va.-Only very few
details remain to be worked out until
our plans will be complete for the
"Buy American" demonstration which
will be staged here Friday, June IT..
Automobile stickers, window posters,
home cards and such are being dis
tributed by the committees and Ameri-
can flags will be given to all those
participating in the parade. The con-
tract for decorating the hall has
been let and we can certainly promise
that all will be in readiness by the time
our rally goes into high.
City and County officials have all
expressed a willingness to cooperate
in any way possible and permits for
the parade and bonfire have been
granted. Funds for the bonfire feature
have exceeded our expectations and
the display will be enlarged. Aerial
bombs and other crowd pleasers will
accompany the huge "Buy American"
sign and flag in this part of our climax
to our foreign-made goods boycott
and "Buy American" drive.
The committee in charge of the
demonstration wishes it known that
all members of the National Brother
hood of Operative Potters Executive
Board are invited to participate in the
rally.
All local unions, civic bodies, organ
izations and clubs from Wheeling,
Moundsville, Wellsburg, Bellaire, Mar

and other points will be represented
in the parade. Two bands from the
musicians local will furnish the
marching airs. Wheeling's American

tance of Wheeling are asked to be in

Perth Amboy, n. J.-Since our last
letter, Local Union No. 96 has proven
to itself and to other locals in the dis
trict that the old union saying, "One
for all and all for one" is exactly that
for which we stand.
In a recent dispute over deduction
made against one group at the Fords
Porcelain Works, which was consider
ed an unfair practice by this local, the
members stuck together 100 per cent
and with the assistance of First Vice
President E. L. Wheatley, the commit
tee settled the matter after a two-day
lay-off. This local wishes to extend
thanks to Brother Wheatley, Vice
President George Cook, Julius Kass,
local attorney, and Thomas Kelly, of
the teamsters, for their aid.
A committee was appointed by the
president to contact the local Building
Trades Council for the purpose Of be-
coming affiliated with that group.

Boston QLNS).-A special COM
mission of the Massachusetts legisla-

saying that Communists led the drives
which built up the membership OF the
CIO unions, that "in large industries
organized by the Committee for Indus
trial Organization, Communist fun
ctionaries occupy leading and strategic
positions through which they dominate
and control the groups of which they
are part"
Every indication" says the report
in one part, points to the fact that
the National Maritime Union (CIO)
along the Atlantic Coast and in the
ports of Massachusetts is controlled
by the Communists"
The report says that one of the
Communist party's prime detectives
is to gain control of all water fronts
and goes on:
"Such control of transport, coupled
with control of industrial labor, would
enable the Communist party to par
alyze the country.
"Should we be engaged in war with
any other nation, the Communist
party could that much more easily
carry out its avowed purpose, TO turn
every war into a civil war"

Installation Of Unfuir SanitarY To
Be Fought BY N. ]. Building Council
WhedtleY Receives OMcial
Notice Of Cooperation
From Secretary
GREAT BOOST TO MEN
Sanitary Employees Will Be
Benefited In Many
Ways By Support

lTcHIOH, ~. J.-lnc NEW Jersey
State Building Trades Council will
support the National Brotherhood of
Operative Potters in its fight against
the installation of unfair sanitary
pottery, it was learned last week when
First Vice President E. L. Wheatley
received the following official notice
from Secretary-T Harold A.
Pierson at the eastern office of the
National Brotherhood of Operative
Potters:
"Dear Sir and Brother:
"This is to advise you that the Ex-
ecutive Board of the New Jersey
Building and Construction Trades
Council has approved the action of the
National Brotherhood of Operative
Potters to organize all pottery plants
in New Jersey, and will advise all To-
cal building trades councils and affili-
ated local unions of this action.
"We will give your organization all
possible support in combating manu-
facturers who have been placed on the
unfair list"
The eastern members of the Execu-
tive Board and the entire membership
Of the sanitary locals in New Jersey
are deeply grateful to the officials of
the Building Trades and the members
of the State Council for this splendid
example Of cooperation. This support
was offered following an invitstion
received by the eastern Office to send
an official to- the regular session Of
the State body which met May Is in
Newark. The invitation to attend
was presented chiefly through the ef-
forts of AFL Organizer Thad Burns
and members of Trenton's plumbers
union.
After hearing an explanation of the
sanitary members efforts to recognize
and enter into collective bargaining
agreements with the employers and
learning that those manufacturers
now hesitating to enter into true bar
gaining relationships would not, un-
der any circumstances, get in wrong
with the Building Trades, there was no
hesitancy on the part Of the Council
in taking the action requested by the
N. B. Of O. P. representative.
The same undivided cooperation has
been received from the State Plumbers
and Steam Filters association, Local
49, Paterson, New Jersey; Local 270,
Perth Amboy, New Jersey; Local 236,
Trenton, New Jersey. The potters of
Locals 90, Perth Amboy; Local so,
Camden, New Jersey; Local as and
10 of Trenton have also been very
active in this campaign to enlist the
aid of the Building Trades to bring
about condition whereby only union
made sanitary ware will be handled
by the union building craftsmen.
The officials of the National Broth
erhood of Operative Potters not only
feel that the moral support Of the
Building Trades will be helpful to
sanitary potters by affiliation, but that
the educational features are practical
ly unlimited. Building Trades commit
tees functioning in each district
throughout the country have advance
knowledge when building projects are
being contracted and designed which
will make it possible for our people
to also learn which manufacturers
