GIN TWINS AT G

The dawn of a new day is
breaking at the MGR as the peo-
pie Of this shop realize the speed
up in production that is gradually
being put in effect after the GIN
twins, Kind and Humphries, took
over control of the factory.
The older men at MGR can re-

fore, but did not prove out. These
men will remember of the dollars
spent and the scrap made when
these same methods were tried
before. These men will recall the
results that took place when they
took men off the job and put girls
on to cut the rate and to cut the
piece-work price.

A total of some 1900 employees
are employed in the production
departments Of the plant. The
campaign for Union recognition
was initiated about three months
ago under the leadership of JOS.
OBrien, Chairman and L. G.
Cornett, Assistant Chairman. Both
have shown real leadership and
built up a stewards system which
for activity is expected to rival
the stewards councils of Plants 1
and 2, already rated among the
best in the country.
AS a result of recent negotia-
tons with the management,
hundreds of employees have been
transferred over to the gun-plant
though the majority of the
workers there, are newly-hired at
Frigidaire. The older employees
are working on a leave of absence
subject to recall at the other
plants. The new employees with
the approval of the older workers
will have their seniority status at
the new plant protected. This was

Any man Or woman who,
through the efforts of our or
ganization has received an in
crease, is a potential member. It
is only necessary to convince that
worker of the future value of
membership.
For example. If your pay is
increased only one cent per hour,
the total increase in a fifty week
year amounts to twenty dollars.
Every worker at Delco has been
increased from ten to twenty
four cents per hour!

Efficiency is very low, effecting
low earnings in contrast to Plant
1 and Plant 2 where the efficiency
has been maintained in we'll

rates is another factor.
The Unions program is de-
signed to remedy an acute man
agerial problem and which will
bring higher earnings and a gen.
eral Improvement in conditions.
However, the employees also
recognize the Unions program
towards the objective which has
created their plant. They claim,
poor working conditions and a
lack of collective bargaining, will
not produce in quantity or quality

needed by the government. They

these girls the same pay as the

went over the top in signed support for Local s1, UER&MWA.

After having registered, use your vote. Your cote IS
your voice in our government. The destiny, and future
aoelfare of Dayton rests upon intelligent use of your vote

If you desire good government then be
sure to vote, and vote for the man uDho aml represent your
best interests.
AS a result of the August primaries, Ben r. Cromwell,
was nominated as a candidate for City Commissioner. Under
the City Manager form of government, a five-man COM
mission is the governing body. 1t is essential that we, the
working people of Dayton, have representation on the City
Commission. In Ben r. Cromwell, we have a man, who
when elected, will be in a position to properly serve the
people of Dayton.
Business, and the professions are already represented
in the City Commission. Labor, which represents a large
section of our citys population certainly has the right to a
voice in the administration of city government. Today
Labor does not have this representation, and Labor itself
is at fault for this unbalanced situation.
Labor does not register, and is often negligent in
voting at the polls on election day. Yet, in the ranks of
labor, there are men who are qualified to serve with the
City Commission, and with other government bodies.
Let each and every one of us pledge, that in the election on
Tuesday, November 4th, we will restore q balance to the City
Commission, by giving the working people Of Dayton . powerful
voice in the conduct of city government through the election OF
Ben b Cromwell.
Remember-REGISTER, first and then VOTE!
