PICKET HEARING
SET FOR AUG. 3

Robert Haddow. owner of a
vacant hotel building at 1915 JEFF
ferson ave, who ran into picket
ing trouble earlier this week. filed
a petition in superior court satnr-
day morning asking an injunction
against the Tacoma Building and
Construction Trades Council.
An immediate restraining order
was not asked by Former Prose-
cutor Harry II. Johnston. who
filed the action. but at his request
Judge Ernest M. Card cited the
union and two Of Its officials to
appear in court next Thursday
afternoon. Aug. =. and show cause
why an order should not be issued
against them.
Large Delegation
Haddow. who operates a. the
Haddow Engineering Co.. asserts
that when he undertook to repair
the hotel building Thursday this
week. = crowd of 200 pickets.
headed by Ray A. Moisio and Val
r. Leek. appeared in front of IL.
The building owner said he was
barred by force from entering the
place and that two employees he
had with him were advised that
II would be unhealthy" for them
to enter. The two employees.
Robert Truman and Warren Evans,
Haddow stated, had WORKED for
him five years and five months,
respectively.
Padlocks Broken
Once in the building with city
police assistance. Haddow charges,
the union pickets put paddock
on his door. making It necessary
for him to break down another
door to get out. Haddow chiseled
off the union lock and relocked the
main door with his own paddock.
his affidavit states, but the de-
PENDANTS then damaged 1t so he
cannot unlock II.
The building owner-contractor
declares he Is being damaged $50
= day by being prevented from re-
pairing the structure and asks
at that rate until he Is
to recommence work.

and developed highly skilled profess
sionally and mechanically trained
men. Labor's interest lies in seeing
that we continue to train and develop
these skills, and further in the estab-
lishment of a wage commensurate
with these skills. There is no point
in acquiring skills unless a compen-
sating remuneration is also assured.
This, too, is the objective for which
we should strive-the teaching of our
young men and women not only the
manner of earning living but, in ad-
dition, also how to live.
Finally, in my position as Con-
sultant in Employe-Employer Rela-
tions, I will appreciate your cooper
alton in calling to my attention in
stances where you believe that the
Federal Office can be of assistance in
helping you to solve any Of your prob
lens in vocational education. l ap-
preciate the confidence you have
placed in me and assure you that
shall, to the utmost of my ability, en-
deavor to merit your continued con-
fidence and support in working con-
stantly for the interests of all con-
cerned in vocational education"
The potters herald. [volume] (East Liverpool, Ohio) 1899-1982, 1939-12-21

endeavoring to have these State and
local advisory committees set up and
utilized, but I am frank in saying to
you that there is yet much room for
improvement in this direction.
"We can not require this to be done.
The law does not specify this so that
we can only persuade and through CO.
operation urge the use of advisory
committees. So in speaking to you
today, want to say with all the en-
phasis can, that we need your whole
hearted cooperation in your setting
up Educational Committees in every
local community to the end that you
can assist US in preventing abuses
creeping into vocational programs
and further in setting up and utilizing
advisory committees composed of an
equal number of representatives of
employees, and employers. If you have
this representation which you should
have, it is not likely that anything
wrong will occur for the simple reason
that you will be able to prevent it.
"The A. F. of L. has issued pamph-
let's from time to time, emphasizing
Labor's responsibility in matters re-
lating to cooperation with local school
authorities, and in bringing it to your
attention again today during this con-
vention, it is to be hoped that every
Central Labor Council, that has not
yet done so, will appoint live Com
mittee on Education, whose business
it will be to keep in touch with edu-
cational matters locally.
Proper Industrial Education Is
Important to Labor
ave know full we'll that Labor has
problems continually confronting it
and that educational matters some
times seem Of secondary Importance.
This, however, is mistaken idea, and
to Labor education should always be
Of primary Importance, and this by
The potters herald. [volume] (East Liverpool, Ohio) 1899-1982, 1939-12-21
reason of Labor having the largest
interest in industrial education.

reason of Labor having the largest
interest in industrial education.
"With the constantly increasing de-
mands for vocational education and
with the scope of vocational educa-
ton constantly being extended into
occupations outside the relatively
small number of occupations hereto
fore served, it behooves Labor as well
as educational authorities to be ever
on the alert to avoid mistakes.
"And, then further, with -the criti
cal situation confronting the world
today in European affairs, it seems
that vocational education is fully JUS
titled in the interest of all concerned
in coming to Labor and seeking your
cooperation in education affairs. This
is a time in America for cool heads,
and this in matters relating to edu-
cation as we'll as other matters.
Office of Education Desires To
Eliminate Abuses
GAS said to you before, DR..
Wright, Assistant Commissioner for
Vocational Education, will cooperate
to the fullest extent in eliminating
abuses whenever they are brought to
his attention, but this necessitates a
very real responsibility on the part of
Labor to bring it to our attention at
the earliest possible moment and be-
fore it gets to be serious. So, again,
let me urge you, if you have not al
ready done so, to set up in every To-
cal Central Labor Council a committee
on education to work comparatively
with local school authorities to assist
in the formation of State and local ad-
visory committees, and to assist in vo-
cational education affairs wherever
you can do SO.
Americas Progress Flows From
Skilled Workers
"America's progress is due in large
part to the fact that we have trained
The potters herald. [volume] (East Liverpool, Ohio) 1899-1982, 1939-12-21

cation, particularly, it is of paramount
Importance that Labor's point of view
be understood. This, by reason of the
fact that, in trade and industrial edu-
cation, those who are being trained
will be those who tomorrow will make
up the rank and file of Labor.
Therefore, Labor should be vitally
interested in the kind Of training
these young people receive, whether
the teacher is occupationally qualified,
and whether the trainees are being
absorbed properly into industry.
"When you stop to think that we
in America spend annually the tre-
mendous sum of S2,659,C0O,0O0 for
education, and that there are approx
mately $4,000 Federal, State and To-
cal units engaged in educational
work, you can begin to appreciate that
education is Big Business and that
Labor must interest itself in it.
"Local vocational school authorities
will welcome opportunity to utilize
the advice and counsel Of Labor
through the use of Advisory Commit
tees made up of an equal number Of
representatives of employees and en-
ployers, if and when the subject is
presented to them in a helpful con-
structive manner.
"Just imagine yourself in an educa-
tors place. Would you not welcome
the advice and counsel of men familiar
with the details of a work you were
doing? Of course you would. AS a
matter of fact, you do this in your
trade unions. For example, when you
set up a research, statistical, or an
educational department in your own
trade union, you employ some one who
is trained and qualified in this special
lied type Of work to advise and as
sist in accomplishing the objective for
which you are striving.
"The Federal Office is constantly
The potters herald. [volume] (East Liverpool, Ohio) 1899-1982, 1939-12-21

ties, the builder, the general contrac-
tor and the subconstractor agree that
everything is as it should be. All bills
are paid, and everybody is happy. Now
this is exactly what we would find in
the case of good local vocational pro-
gram. The Commissioner would have
no hesitancy about approving the
State Plan. The State Executive Of
ficer, having delegated the Local Su-
perintendent of Schools to perform
the job, would be pleased, and the
Local Superintendent of schools, hav-
ing conducted his vocational program
in full accord with the State Plan,
would be reimbursed for his work with
Federal money.
Assume, on the other hand, that
while the subcontractor was INSTALL
ing your heating system, he was also
installing one in your neighbor's house
across the street. You may be in
specting the job in your house, and
just casually happen to take a look
at the work he is doing for your neigh
Dor. You can see at a glance that the
other job is a poor one as compared
with the job he is doing for you. But
what can you do about it? Exactly
nothing.
"In similar manner local voca-
tional program, not reimbursed by
Federal moneys, it not our program,
and hence, we are unable to do any
thing about it.
Local Labor Education Committees
Have Important Functions
GAS a matter of fact, there are
training programs being carried on
and called vocational programs that
both Federal and State vocational edu-
Gators know full we'll are not bona
fide vocational programs and should
not be permitted to continue, but
which we cannot stop and over which
we have no responsibility.
"Their being called vocational pro.
grams causes many to associate them
in their minds with the Federal voca.
tional program, and we are criticized
for a condition over which we have
no control.
"Therein lies the responsibility OF
Labor in every local community, tc
have been sufficiently interested ir
education to have set up, and func.
tioning always, Committee on Edu'
cation in every Central Labor Coun.
Gil. Through this committee, rela.
tionships can be built up with loca
educational authorities and with schoo
boards, so that an improper program
can not get started.
Further along this same line, the
Smith-Hughes Act does not make il
mandatory to set up State Advisory
Committees in a State nor to utilize
local advisory committees in loca
committees.
The Parable of the Milking Stool
"Dr. j. C. Wright, Assistant Com
missioner for Vocational Education
tells story illustrating the need for
advisory committees.
"He says that, as boy on a Kan
sas farm, he learned very early in life
