job, deducted it from his wages.
1t seems some shops which pay a
very low rate in wages still force the
maker of the ware to produce salable
piece of ware in order to get his pay.
We hear that the loss Of ware is as
great in the rest of the shop as in the
casting shop, yet there is no charge
for carelessness. We wonder if there
is any other skilled workmen who are
forced to live up to practice brought
down from the days of the bond slave.
1t pays for a workman to give honest
service. Loyal cooperation on the part
of most of our union men at the Uni
versal has helped US to secure the fair
treatment we receive. High percentage
ratings of ga" grade ware have been
turned out month after month and we
have enjoyed better conditions. On
May 1 wage increase was granted,
which helps to pay some of the living
cost that we are forced to meet.

OF the 9ravest week-ends in the his.
tory of this Var was at hand; that
the northern neutrals must decide

Yet when the moment for N

it apparently found Great Britain

That, at least, is the impression a
