Vacation Over For
Scu1nmell Workers
New Buildings Are Taking
Shape As Minor Repuir
Work Is Completed

Trenton, n. J.-Local Union No. 35
held their semi-monthly meeting Mon
day evening with many interesting
discussions. The new bylaws adopt
ed at this meeting were discussed
very thoroughly, especially the sec
ton pertaining to the attendance
clause, which states each and every
member must attend one meeting at
least once a month, or be fined 80
cents for each offense. This law
takes effect the first Of August. All
members please take note.
Brother Williams Hibbs, delegate to
the convention, gave an interesting
and lengthy report. He was ap-
Dlauded and given a standing ovation
for his services rendered.
The Scammell China has resumed
operation after brief shut down to
give the employees a short vacation.
They also made some minor repairs
during this time. The new buildings
they are erecting are coming along
nicely. 1t won't be long before the
roofs will be on and the proper ma
chinery installed. Also the new cir
cular kiln has started to shape up.
Dave Newell is certainly full Of
smiles since the eastern bowling team
defeated the western team in the an
nual match in Atlantic City. Brother
Dave is captain Of the eastern bowl
ers and if you want to see a game
with action, don't miss it the next
time. First Vice-President Wheatley
sure throws a wicked ball. Every
time he bowled the pin boys would get
off the alley. Brother Ed was the
clown of the evening. Presiden
Duffy, captain of the western team
seemed to be off form and had severa
bad splits. No alibis, Jim.
Brother Mike Carolin spent most Of
his vacation at Atlantic City and was
in attendance at several convention
meetings. Also Sister Edith Reddy
was mingling with the delegates in
the lobby at the Hotel Dennis. Broth
er Alex Young attended the conven
ton from the side line and was. al
interested spectator.
Brother Joyce, dipper, was reported
i'll and in need of sanatorium treat
ment. Good luck, Joyce.
Brother George Briel is all smile,
since purchasing a new home. How
does it feel to be prosperous, George
Nuf sed, but don't fail to atten'
meetings or pay the fine. O. C. 50.

Washington.-The authors and
sponsors Of the Burke -Wadsworth Sc
lective Service Bill appeared before
the Senate Military Affairs Commit
tee today to ask the amendment Of
the law in consonance with the recon-
mendations Of President Roosevelt
and General George c. Marshall
Chief Of Staff.
These sponsors, through their
spokesman, Grenville Clark, az chair-
man Of the National Emergency Com
mittee of the Military Training
Camps Association, presented brief
in which they pointed out that the au-
.hors had forseen the possibility Of d
need for later amendments ard had
provided therefor.
Specifically, Mr.. Clarl; said, there
IS no question Of a breach Of faith
with the selectees, nor with the pub
'ic, since the present Law contains q
provision authorizing the President TO
extend the twelve months period Of
service whenever the Congress has
declared that the national interest is
imperiled."
If the present limit Of one year IS
retained for the length of service cf
he three categories concerned, he
said, it would cause the disintegra-
ion Of our armed forces, dissipate
much Of the effort already made and
impair our power and influence in
he world and involve grave dangers
to the nation"
If the proposals are defeated, Mr.
Clark insisted, such an act would
Tastly encourage the Axis powers,
who are watching Congress with Q
keen eye, and would have a corre-
spending depressing effect upon the
morale of the British, and upon the
peoples of conquered nations"
"We must face the fact" he said,

Five Point Plan
To Prevent Loss
Of Workers Jobs
Federation Offers Mems Of
Insuring Aguinst Loss
Through Priority

Washington, D. c. GLNS).-Presi-
dent William Green Of the American
Federation of Labor, has outlined a
program of action to prevent ode
fense unemployment" resulting from
application of priorities to strategic
metals and materials.
Citing the aluminium industry as
one in which dislocation of employ
ment due to priorities has become
increasingly acute, he declared that
the situation has "now reached the
proportions of an industry-wide cri-
Sis"
In letter to Sidney Hillman, as
sociate director of the Office of Pro-
duction Management, Green declared
"decisive action is imperative" and
called upon the OPM to put into eff
feet at once" the plan which he Of
fered for dealing with the situation.
A summary of the plan follows:
/. A complete production analysis
of affected plants to determine how
they may be used for defense
Full Cooperation Demanded
2. Preferential clearance for de-
fense contracts with these plants.
8. Make it clear to the manage
ment of these plants that unless they
give full cooperation in the shiftover
the plant "will be placed at the dis
posal of the Federal Government"
a. Where defense employment is
available because of plant or produc-
tion expansion in other industries in
the same community, intensive ap-
premiership and vocational programs
should be inaugurated to fit local la
Dor to the jobs anticipated.
5. Steps should be taken to safe
guard future employment status Of
workers whose employment is inter-
rupted by priorities. This would in

Sfa+e Employment
Service Continues
To Aid In Defense
Clearance System Finding
Right Worker For
Given Job

The Ohio State Employment Serv-
ice, Ohio's labor-recruiting machinery,
stands ready for the assignment
Uncle Sam has handed state operated
employment Offices throughout the ma
tion-that of finding available work
ers needed by defense industries.
Without undue loss of time, any of
the Ohio Employment Security Cen
ters is able to canvass city, state, or
nation in the effort to locate just the
right worker for a given job.
While the local supply of skilled
workers in certain occupations is be-
ing rapidly depleted, the Employment
Service has been able to fill large
number of requests from employers
through it's clearance system.
When, somewhere in Ohio, En-
ployer "a" calls upon his nearest
Employment Security Center for
prompt action in obtaining "hard-to-
find" worker, he may be sure he is in
no danger of setting off an avalanche
of migration, eliminating in mass OF
unqualified applicants clamoring at
his factory gates.
Instead, the labor-recruiting ma
chinery of the Ohio State Employment
Service begins to function in the fol-
lowing orderly manner:
Seeking Workers in the Home Area
AS soon as an employers order has
been received, the local employment
security center searches it's files for
information on suitable workers, to
make sure that all available local la
Dor is surveyed. If it's files fail to
show an adequate supply of the work
ers needed, the local office gets in
touch with community agencies likely
to have information on such workers
In addition, copies Of the job order are
sent to Offices within convenient com
muting distance of the job. For ex'
ample, the Employment Security Cen
ter at Hamilton, Ohio, may receive ar
order for number of skilled work
ers. If it's supply Of available quail
fled workers is inadequate, the Hamil
ton office will consult it's neighborine
offices of Cincinnati, Dayton ant
Wilmington. Only an hour or twt
may be needed to complete the search

Workers and City Agree
On Wage ScoIe 6 Hours
After WoIkout on Cuts
BY the Associated Press.

BY the Associated Press.
CHICAGO, Jan. 10.-All munich
pal services were resumed on a nor
NAL basis today after settlement of
short-lived strike that affected
5,l94 city employees.
Six hours after union workers
struck in protest against proposed
pay cuts yesterday the contending
parties agreed on wage scale that
Mayor Edward j. Kelly said was
almost what the city wanted.
A few hours later the City Council
adopted 1941 budget of about s54,-
100000 which represented a reduc-
ton of $2,000,000 from the 1910 bud
get, and included pay cuts estimated
at s50OO0O
Officials estimated that the con-
cessions granted labor chiefs in the
strike settlement would cost the
city about $4,000 more than the
Council had intended to pay in 1s41
salaries. The agreement calls for a
sliding scale of pay cuts ranging
from to 10 per cent for salaries
above $4,000
Although the strikers were away
from their jobs most of the day, the
dispute scarcely was felt by the
public. Essential services to hos
pitals and similar institutions were
not disrupted and water pumping
stations were manned.
Chiefly affected were street con-
struction and repair, garbage. COL
lection, elevator service in the City
Hall, and traffic lights. Policemen
were assigned to bridges so that
