NEED UNION

Proof of the thorough work
that our Union, the UER&MWA
has done in organizational work,
is again given to u members!
In Springfield, Ohio, we have
the Robbins and Meyers Company.
This plant, under the domination
of a company union, has gone
from bad to worse. The workers
in this shop have suffered under
the strain Of low wages and poor
conditions in the plant for longer
than we care to mention.
A new day is dawning for these
workers! Organization in a real,
working mans Union, has now
entered the picture.
The company union has made
their final bid! In an attempt to
make peace with the company, the
imitation of a union signed a con-
tract without the knowledge of a
single worker in the plant. The
UE exposed this attempted fraud
and has arranged a mass meeting
for all these workers to draw up
a real contract. This contract will
be signed with the approval of the
membership only.
