Now why not make this a New
Years resolution that we, with the aid
of the national head, take hold of this
problem of organizing the pottery
workers on the west coast. We know
it's going to take an outlay of some
cash, but the return will come back
later through swelling the ranks of
our organization, so let's pull to-
gether and clean up this unbearable
situation once and for all.
We are pleased to see some news
from our neighbors, Stockton and Ell
Cerrito in the last weeks Herald, and
to note some changes in the personnel
of the Joaquin Pottery at Stockton,
including the advancement of Brother
Max Booth to clay shop foreman. We
sincerely believe that Max will do his
best to help put the Joaquin over and
keep the boys steadily employed.
Harry Lee should make real, live
wire for president for Local Union
165 at Ell Cerrito, so here's hoping,
Harry, that your local grows and
prospers throughout 1941 under your
guidance, (but Harry you will have to
watch every cue just as closely as
your employer, John, watches for de-
fective ware).
Some Of the boys of Local Union
$50 held little Christmas party, De-
cember "a, and the festivities were
rather of a cheerful nature. With
Brother Clark and Brother Matteson
doing a fine job of story telling, all
had fine time.
Brother Bremmer is back at his
bench after temporary leave of alb
sence. He was helping out at the May
Department store, as he has done in
former years during the Christmas
season, as a floor man in the china
ware department..
We hope by the close of 1941 that
we can boast Of several more locals
out here on the coast. So why not
have a standing committee for organ.
national work, one or two to be ap.
pointed from each local on the coast
may we have your views on this sug.

Wagner Predicts
(Continued from Page One)

"All such proposals should bring this
fact to mind-only the totalitarian
nations are wholly free of labor strife
in peace and in war; and they ac-
complish this at price we think too
high to pay:-servitude for labor and
industry, reduced morale and in
creased accidents and sabotage. In a
contest between the Nazi system and
our own, we cannot hope to succeed
by adopting Hitler's methods.
"Where industrial strife arises,
public authority in democracy
should exert its influence, not in coer-
cion or dctation of a settlement, but
in helping the parties to reach their
own decisions and adjust their own
difficulties around the conference
table. Increasingly in recent years,
collective bargaining has led to the
signing of labor agreements-char
ters of industrial peace and voluntary
discipline. The exceptional dispute
that ripens into strife-usually where
no labor agreement had been in force
should not be allowed to obscure
this fact: Notwithstanding a great
increase in trade union membership
and industrial activity, industrial
strife is on steady decline. Indeed
the number of American labor dis
putes this year, in proportion to total
population, has been lower than in
Great Britain
The Senator emphasized that in
modern warfare industrial capacity is
vital factor and morale on the home
front an important element to sue.

"For these reasons" he continued
"the social gains we have made IL
the past few years are neither luxu'

man responsible for the fullest pro

HONOR FOR TOLL

It would be difficult, but not impos-

laziness, false ideas Of superiority,

AFTER-WA POLICY

If we are to set the world going
again, not only must we have strength,
but we must not adopt the fatal poll
cies we all pursued after the last
war, the establishment of prohibitive
tariffs, trying to collect fantastic rep
arations and war debts across these
tariffs, and the hoping to dodge the
inevitable consequences of those fol-
lies by a policy of reckless lending.
Markets and employment for all
should be the main purpose of post
war economic policy.-The late Lord
Lothian, British Ambassador to the
United States.
The potters herald. [volume] (East Liverpool, Ohio) 1899-1982, 1941-01-02

We feel that the patriotic policy
and the actual record of the American
Federation of Labor and it's affiliated
unions in the national defense pro-
gram merit praise rather than at
tack-William Green.

PLANNING FOR PEACE

The democracies lost the initiative
in war to the dictators, and rightly
explain it by the fact that their way
of life had not been the war way
and they therefore had not engaged
in preparation for war. On the same
basis there seems no reason why they
should let the dictators assume the
initiative in planning for the kind of
world to be established when peace
is estored.-Florenc Brewer Boeck-
el.

FORESIGHT

1t is not too late for foresight. Let
US look ahead and see what partici
patton in this European war would do
to us. We might not win. But if we
should "win" we would lose. The
United States has not recovered from
the first World War; we are still
feeling some effects Of the Civil War.
Economic depression would follow a
new war. We would unite for the
period of the war, but after the war
the diverse clements which compose
this country would fly apart. Phony
wartime "idealism" would be fol-
lowed by postwar materialism and
cynicism and, worst of all, by horrid
faiths" such as communism, fascism,
Or-it is hard to conceive it now
the aftermath Of another war might
produce something worse.
Let US keep civilization from break
ing down in this part of the world.
There is but one way to do that-by
staying out of the war--Washington

When You Buy Stockings

You'll start off on the right loot
when you buy stockings if you check
the label for the gauge number of
full-fashioned hose.
Along with size of the yarn and
the Courses gauge determines the
weight of full-fashioned hose. The
gauge is a measure of the fineness
of knitting. 1t refers to the number
of needles used in each 112 inches OF
the needle bar of the knitting ma
chine.
High gauge hose-4S, 81, 81 gauge
or over-are finer looking and better

Low gauge hose-39 and az gauge
are durable in service weights but
quick to snag in sheer and semi

Courses are the crosswise loops
most apparent on the wrong side OF

Lard Gets Standard
Two new standards Of identity for
lard have recently been made public
by the Secretary of Agriculture.
One of the standards is for pure
lard, and the other for a product
made from pork fats less desirable
than those used in lard. The latter
product-formerly sold as lard-is
now to be sold as rendered pork fat.
Now, if lard enters interstate com
merce, it must be made exclusively
a from the more desirable hog fats.
t. Specifically, under the new standard
. of identity, lard is the fat rendered
/" (melted) from fresh, clean, sound
: fatty tissues from hogs in good
{. health at the time Of slaughter, with
: or without lard stearin or hardened
/, lard Chats to make it firm, if neces-
. sary). Bones, blood vessels, scrap
: fats, skimmings, and the like, can't be
= used to make lard. Materials for ren-
. dering into lard must also be reason
: ably free of muscle tissue and blood
. Rendered pork fat, a lower grade
: of cooking fat, which should sell foi
q less than lard, must also be made
from the fat of healthy animals. This
product, however, may be made from
fats that have been cured or cooked
and which contain meat food products
other than pork fat. Unlike lard, rem
dered pork fat may be processed II
part from adible organs, and some
bones.
Consumers have long been asking
+. for quality grades to enable them to
make sure that they get the quality
of product they are buying Technca
difficulties still stand in the way o.
A-B-C grades for lard, but the pres
ent standards Of identity are a move
in the direction Of more informative
labelling.

There were no particular price

SEA BATTLE

Moscow claimed a great victory in
what appeared to be the biggest
sea action so far in the war. This
was an attack by Russian planes
and warships on a big German con-
voy in the Baltic. The Russians
said that IS German transports,
three destroyers and a barge loaded
with tanks were sunk or set afire
in the attack. 1t was said that no
Russian losses were suffered. This
was the second big Soviet attack
on a German Baltic convoy.
