TeamSier' Council
Smashes LeWisioWn
Associated Industries
Statewide Action Forces Sign
ing Contracts in Defiance of
Associated Industries Agree
ment.

LEWISTOWN. - Adopting the
Seattle policy of statewide action
against unfair firms, the State Coun-
ell of Transfers smashed the re-
dictionary agreement of the Lewis
town Associated Industries and
forced Eddy's Bakery and other
Lewistown firms to sign closed shop
agreements with the local union of
the International Brotherhood of
Transfers, Chauffeurs, Stablemen
and Helpers, here October 18th. Con-
tracts bring a wage increase aver
aging $40 for the workers, better
working conditions, the closed shop,
and the eight-hour day. AS team
sters had been working as high as
IA hours a day, the winning of an
eight-hour day was the biggest issue
involved.
Such firms as Ryan Fruit Co.,
Nash-Finch, Eddy's and other bust
nesses operating statewide have
carried out a policy of running union
in one town and non-union in others.
Thus the organized workers were
| pitted against the unorganized, pre-
venting further organization. The
policy of the A. F. of L. stressing
sanctity of local contracts was a
great advantage to such firms. In
adopting the policy of statewide
action against all statewide oper-
ating firms, the State Council put
a stop to these union-busting prac-
tees. Under the new policy, team
sters anywhere in the state refuse
to work for an establishment that is
unfair in another part of the state.
This is the policy of the Seattle Joint
Council No. ga policy that has
brought great benefits to Seattle
teaming employees.
John Mogus, business agent of the
Anaconda Transfers and vice presi-
dent of the State Council, directed
the three-day strike which brought
the Associated Industries to its
knees. Shocked and bewildered by
unified transfers action, Lewistown
merchants violated their Associated
Industries agreement, involving a
rumored $500 penalty, and signed
with the union. Another fortress of
the open-shop had fallen-thanks to
the policy of statewide action and
the brilliant %generalship of Vice
President Mogus.
Teaming conditions at Billings
illustrate weakness of the old policy
of local action against state firms.
Nash-Finch and Ryan welded the
club of their union contracts with
other locals against the Billings
teamsters. Success of the new policy
in Lewistown indicates the only
method of remedying these condi-
tons in Billings.
All Montana locals of the Inter
national Brotherhood of Transfers
Chauffeurs, Stablemen and Helpers
who desire to expand their organi-
cations and improve wages and con
ditions in their locality are invited
to contact John Mogus, care Of
Transfers Union, Anaconda, Mon
tana. The State Council is deter
mined that it will bring the mem
bership of the combined teamine
movement up to the 10000 that il
should have in Montana.

o. M: Must go back to my hus-
band and still go with the man I
am going with now?
Ans: To return to your husband
wouldn't add any happiness to
your life for you well realize that
you do not love him. Although the
man you are going with will not
mean anything to you either q.
the right man just hasn't come
along yet. Share your time with
more than one friend.
M. A.: 1t has been my desire
for a long time to start an employ
ment agency and l wonder if it
would be worth while?
Ans: A very worth while idea
and it could be started on
small scale and worked up. It's
mighty good business and it helps
many people and you are well quail
fled to handle a venture of this
kind.
V. B. E.: Why is it the man 1
now live with will not consent to
marry me?
Ans: He wants to be foot
loose and fancy free. and mar
riage just doesn't appeal to him.
Why waste any more Of your time
on him for you don't wish to go
through life entirely without hus-
band and you are already getting
along up into years.
A. M. T.: What is the matter
with my husband? Did he quit
me for that woman that / saw him

Gene Likes Scars and Uneven Features, for He's No Sissy
Has Played Boyhood Roles of Many Actors Screen and
 Now Would Like to Play Himself for Change

Gene Is No Sissy
 He's IA or 15 years old. but shy about his age because he's small 4 feet, 10 inches, 90 pounds. Gene is no pretty-boy, and glad of it. When I asked about a scar on his forehead he said, "Oh, I got that a long time ago. But I don't mind a little scar, or my irregular features, because I don't want to be Robert Tay-"
 Remembering his studio affilia- ton, Gene stopped in confusion, then continued: Taylor is an awful nice man, and very human, but I do think they've been putting him in too many sissy roles. Don't you?" I did.
 Without direct reference to the small English gentlemen, Freddie Bartholomew and Ronald Sinclair, Reynolds showed he has been fig uring on his particular acting ad- vantages. I'm sure," he said, "that the American public would like to see regular American boy on the screen" Immediately afterward he told of wanting to play the Chinese boy hero of book he had read, or maybe the Son of Tarzan. Tar zan's son, he explained with author ity, was half-American.

BY PAUL HARRISON NEA Service Staff Correspondent

Hollywood-Gene Reynolds mo- vie career to date has been mostly series of juvenile impersonations. He has played Ricardo Cortez as a boy, John Beal as boy, Tyrone Power as a boy, and-in "Of Hu- man Hearts"-Jimmy Stewart as a boy.
 But as result of the latter role, it looks as though Master Reyn- olds will have a chance to play him. self as boy. mean that the stu dio will find picture, perhaps "One Young American" in which he'll have the leading part. Already two strong parts are being written for him into two scheduled pictures, Boys Town" and Lord Jeff"
 All this special attention is due to the way Gene turned on the his trionics in "Of Human Hearts" and drenched previeW audiences in their own tears. For months, since the beginning of production, Director Clarence Brown has been going around telling all the sundry that this Reynolds kid is really some thing. Originally engaged only for the one film, he now has been giv- en a studio contract.
