Let's All Get Together
Contributed by A 753 Member

AS / sit here thinking of just what can be done for all of the
people that are being laid of, I feel that there is only one thing that
will solve our problem, and that is cooperation from every member.
If you are willing you can do your part by telling the truth to your
fellow worker, who is mislead by what ne o she reads in the papers
It is true that management is taking the advantage of the National
Defense program in order to break up your UNION by not cooperating
with you, in order to cause trouble. When we have to strike for some
thing that is right and due us, the newspapers blast that we are
holding up Defense work If that is their story, what about the large
corporations that are laying off thousands of people Just because it
is going to cost them a little money to change over to Defense work!
They wish to stay on consumer production and don't want
defense work. We know that we are all 1000 American and that we
will help in the National Defense to the fullest extent that is possible
They claim that there re shortages of many different kinds OF
material. This is not true, because if they wanted to they could have
all kinds and as much as they wanted. These are the things that are
holding up your defense program! We are willing to work and want
work and will do everything and anything to help in the Defense
program, but we do not need to, or intend to give up our rights and
a decent standard of living in order to give a few the monopoly OF

Q DELCO
Karl BorIowe
says: -

We must recognize the fact that
a revolution has come to these
United States! Not a revolution of
force and bloodshed, but a social
and economic uprising of the
workers of our country. The time
has come for Labor to 90 on to
q new high in the American stan
dard of living.
Capital has been taught respect
for Labor. Some have learned to
cooperate through the medium of
peaceful, collective bargaining.
Other corporations have been
taught the hard way!
There must be no retracing of
our steps. Organization, and con-
solicitation of that organization will
lead Us to the promised land of
the working man and woman, a
part in the destiny of the fruits
of our labor.

The UE Tool-Die Local 764 will

able to stabilize wages and en-
ployment in the industry. Many
UE members, formerly employed

Sins Of the
Eerie Swami

Weird stories! Ghost stories!
Tales of terror! The Swami Knows!
Some of the widest tales that
have ever emanated from the
master minds of a company union,
have come from the Cash" of
recent date.
Now is the time for the workers
at N. c. r. to know the truth.
After the drive is over, and the
election won, the management at
this last major plant will recognize
and bargain with the United Elec-
trical Workers. The master mind
of the EIU maze has denied this.
He has made the statement that
the company will take care of his
members.
In answer to you, "Oh Master of
the Haze" let this be our final
word on the subject of collective
bargaining.
Every plant management must
recognize our Union after an cleo
ton has been won. Some have to
be taught respect for Labor the
hard way. Others are more easily
given the lesson. They all learn!
Ask supervision in any General
Motors plant in Dayton, and then,
SIGN THAT CARD.

the Shop Committee, composed of

The Union has placed proposals

week for one years service, two
weeks for three years or more
service.
Changes have been proposed IN
certain sections of the Seniority
clause to correct certain inequali-
ties in the present Agreement. One
change calls for transferred time
Of an employee to another depart

Brown & Broekmeyer's Baby
Or
PixiIated Pixy Invades Meeting With Management

Having gazed upon the flowing
bowl, dallied with the red wine,
and no doubt wrestled a bout with
the demon rum, a pixilated pixy
invaded the inner sanctum of the
management at Brown and Brock
meyer.
This alleged relative of top
management must have something
on the ball! She has her finger in
every pie that management pro-
poses to cut. (Her version!) This
last escapade, however, is too
much.
Explain, management! She is
your baby, according to her claims.
Either gather her to your arms
in the innermost part of your
heart (that is, If your heart is
not solid rock as some suspect), or
else convey to her the instruction
that interference with our Nego-
tiating Committee DOES NOT
PAWN!

Shall Democracy Stand?
(From Small Motor Assembly,

We American workers love de-
mocracy and right now things
are too unequal in our department
to be called democratic. When one
group of men think that another
is only different from animals in
that they have the power to
think" let them not forget we
still have the instinct to protect
ourselves. We can fight and kick
and we al organize more power
fully than any supervision that
wants to kick us around. Maybe
the production machinery would
run smoother if this attitude of
workers as animals" was changed
and all men counted as equals as
the fathers of our democracy in
tended. Democracy shall only
stand when capital ceases to
broaden the gulf which separates
them from labor. Too long they
have used labor at their own beck
and call, and when the law gives
us a little bit of equality they
can't seem to adjust themselves
to it. JOIN NOW AND HELP
WIN YOUR FIGHT.

tention that there is too much
standing around" in the shipping
department at Attempt. Now isn't
that just too "ducky" for words?
Where is our Management sup
posed to be while this standing
around" is in process? Why do
men stand around? Has it ever
occurred to $50 brilliant man
agement" that the boss might
know something about it? Per-
haps the boss doesn't tell the
Management that the reason the
men stand around could be the
result of the shortage of equip
ment. Maybe the boss is a little
backward, when it comes to tell
ing the Management that he should
have more two-wheel trucks,
tackers and glue pots.
Duties Plain
Perchance, it hasn't occurred to
the boss that the main duties of
shipping are trucking to the load
ing dock and labelling. 1t could be
that the Management also thinks
that two men should push one
two-wheeler, or having five men
spend an hour looking for a truck
is the nuts" in being thrifty.
What does the Management ex-
pect, with only three two-wheel
trucks, three tackers, and one glue
pot, among twenty-five men in
shipping?
Has the Management ever
stopped to think that our shipping
is hampered greatly, by waiting
most of the day, for stock from the
warehouses? There are very few
orders we can complete from the
stock on hand in the shop. Per-
haps the Management would like
to have us run a screw machine
while we wait for the ,"office" to
get u orders together from "all
over" Dayton warehouses.
Floating Power
You would be surprised if you
knew how aggravated everyone is
in shipping, because of conditions
there. We would much rather put
in a good days work and have
everything go along smoothly,
than put in days like we have
been. We have yet to see any
department function properly
where the boss uses FLOATING
power" as a means of getting re-
suits. By Floating power" we
mean allowing men to choose
their own jobs. They float here
and there at will, with the result
that nothing is accomplished.
There is no system of distributing
the work. Either "ganging up"
prevails or not enough help on
certain jobs. Let's see some action
on your part, and we will do ours.
Just for the sake of contrast, we
would like to bring to the atten-
ton of our fellow-workers one
type of management at Airtemp.
Boss Blows Off
MI. Frounfelker, our Master Me-
chanic, was heard the other day,
blowing off a lot of steam about
"the big shot" he is at Airtemp,
how he can hire or fire, raise or
lower wages, etc. Now the fact
that he had been hitting it up a
little "too freely" certainly doesn't
excuse a man, who, reputedly,
holds the destiny of so many
workers in the palm of his hand.
Woe unto us, fellow-workers, If
Mr.. Frounfelker gets hold of an
other bottle. He may start firing.
Tsk, tsk, tsk.

Equality on Defense Work

The large manufacturing plant
must sublet contracts to smaller
plants in order to take up this
unemployment. They also must do
their part and not try to hog all
of the business. These contracts
should be divided among all the
plants. Each plant should be on
a certain per cent of Defense work
and a certain per cent of consul
mel production work. For ex-
ample, all manufacturing plants
could be on 1919 defense and 300
consumer production. This would
allow any manufacturer to take
the consumer production business
from another and more manu-
featuring plants would be willing
to do defense work Many manu-
featuring plants have built a good
business and do not want to turn
it over to another manufacturer
because he must 60 on defense
work and the other does not have
to 60 on defense work It should
be equal to all manufacturers In
order to eliminate much of this
unemployment. Be wise and Or
ganize. United we stand and di-
vided we fall. WE SHALL NOT
FALL

I got one, that is true,
But they stuck me on the grave yard" shift,

Nor the clatter of pounding machines.
