By DAVE NOPPER AP Feature Service


 ANNAPOLIS. Mir, Aug. 30-This is strictly confidential stuff, so keep it under your hat-but Navy's grid ders already are busy getting in shape for the approaching football season. And, what's more, they've been at it for a couple of weeks.
 The fact that Swede Larson, the Naval Academy's football prof, got a jump on the other pigskin tutors |--maybe-was learned simply by reading his mail. s..

Six reasons for
organization at
Article Nv BY III. d. Hussong,
Economics
e. Local 8O7

The EIU cannot fill the bill!
First of all they have no plan
to better conditions in the plant
on wage adjustments. Every time
that an improvement is made for
one worker, someone down the
line takes it on the chin!
Secondly, they have no interest
in the workers throughout the city
living on starvation wages. 1gnor-
ing other workers conditions in
our city, will eventually have an
effect on our own. This is not
good economy. Coordination of
Labor in every part of Dayton is
needed to form a real Union.
Isolation of a group, dominated
by the very body of men, (man-
agement) who hope to keep wages
at the lowest possible level is
NOT the way to preserving the
American standards of living.
In order to protect your eco
nomic status as the producers of
the necessities and comforts SO
greatly valued by every American,
you must have a strong, militant
Union.
The United Electrical Workers
fill the bill. We are the protectors
of the rights and privileges of the
American worker, EVERY
WHERE! We do not ask for the
crumbs that management passes
to the EIU to help dominate the
workers. WE DEMAND, AND
GET FULL RIGHTS AND PRO-
lection FOR EVERY WORKER!

A HUNK OF PAPER

There's a pad of paper in every
Stewards drawer and Just
in case anyone doesn't know what
those pads are for we're 60
ing to let you in on the secret!
Just suppose you think you should
get a larger share of the profits
you produce for Master, or again,
suppose you think some changes
should be made on your Job
conditions, or suppose you see
that the seniority clause in our
contract is not being followed
by your foreman, or just suppose
there's any old thing that needs
improving at Master well,
the little pad of paper that your
Steward has is the way to the
changing. No, the paper isn't
magic. The paper doesn't 60 up
to management and say "look
here boys, this and this have to
be done" . and then presto its
done. The paper lying in the
drawer doesn't accomplish one
single little thing. LIST, you get the
paper from your Steward, and
write a full explanation of what
you want changed, and why. End,
you turn the written request in
to your Steward, and by this
strange and mysterious act :.
presto the support of 1000
Union members is put behind
your request. Really not so
strange. There's a simple saying
that's been around for a long time,

Workers Ask
Short Inventory

At the membership meeting of
Dinner Fare Unit Local 806, the
Shop Commute was requested to
discuss with the Management the
possibility Of continuing produc-
ton through the inventory period.
The discussion in the meeting
conferred around the need for all
National Defense production posi-
BILE and also the rising cost of
living would create a hardship on
the workers along with short time
pays. A report was made by
Brother John Deley for the Rate
Committee and Brother Ed
Reigelsparger reported for the
Shop Committee.
Chief Steward Patterson, chair
man of the meeting made a plea
to all the members to do their
share In supporting the Union
Program by following the Grie-
vance procedure and to file out
the necessary grievance forms on
any points that are contrary to
the interests of the individual
member Of the Union.

therefore was talking to, one mem
Der after $3.50 P. M. This member
said, quote, "It's after $3.50 now, so

Union matters should be forgotten

The great EIU held a meeting
for the general service department
Nov. IL at their office on S. Main
St. In this meeting they talked
about the problems that come up
in the department. One of the
things that got to the front was
the matter of the watchmen, and
the great Creamer told them that
they would have to wait six weeks
to get an answer. In the paper
they put out at the shop the other
morning they told the men and
women that they of the EIU could
settle 10 cases while the CLIO ran
down to the office.
Now in the face of the facts this
does not seem true as they ask
for 6 weeks to get an answer for
the watchmen. In this same meet
u,g they told the men that they
would have to pay the full amount
that they were behind in dues
from the time they signed up with
the CJO.
This is not a misstatement but
a downright lie, as no-one starts
to pay dues until the UE-CIO has
the bargaining rights at the MGR.
If anyone doubts our word all they
have to do is to ask the men that
work at the other shops. We do
have at this time, a voluntary dues
that is paid by members that are
interested in the CLIO, but
is not compulsory.

Despite a few members, who

employees that were hired to re-

fits of real organization as in the
UE r being realized by more
employees every day.
At the meeting held December
4th the membership showed the
same spirit of unity that has
carried them through the past
year. The members at S-W-W
know the necessity of strong or

from real unity.

Democratic Union

The Congress of Industrial Organizations, "C1O" is a great Demo-
cratic Union, and every true American who holds membership in the
CLIO can proudly say this is true.
The CLIO is a powerful organization because the common class
of people, or the workers, are beginning to see the light. Now that the
road is not so rough for these workers, the unions having paved the
way, the manufacturers and big business n attempting to dig ruts
and holes s. as to hinder the progress of the working class people
