Frigidaire Lays

The relations of the UE with
Frigidaire r in a different stage
from what they were six months
ago, but the attitude of manage
ment towards its employees and
the Union is fundamentally the
same.
Frigidaire cannot get used to
the idea of a Union because a
Union represents higher wages for
tile workers. The UE has just won
a 100 an hour general increase.
Frigidaire cannot forgive nor for

and means to get back the 100 but
it seeks to break the spirit and
morale of its employees through
enforced discipline.
Employees Disciplined
The Company recently posted
throughout the plant 80 Shop
Rules. The Shop Rules herald the
introduction in the plant of "a
New Order" The purpose is to
create more efficiency and stricter
adherence to discipline. Privileges
such as getting a bottle of "pop"

before starting work, are now for

u SOON

UE WORKERS! Within the next
few weeks an NLRB election will
be held to determine whether or
not the nine hundred workers of
the Dayton Rubber Company will
benefit by the protection of the
great CLIO organization we have
built in Dayton.
Under company unionism
Dayton Rubber workers r re-
ceiving from ten to forty per-
cent less pay per hour than CLIO
organized workers doing the
same jobs, and are putting out
thirty percent more produc-
ton. Low standards of pay and
working conditions such as
those imposed upon workers at.
Dayton Rubber are a threat to
the gains which have been made
in CLIO organized plants in Day
ton.
We who are now enjoying the
fruits of our Union Organizations
have an opportunity to help I'm
organized workers make the same
gains for themselves. If you have
a friend or relative working at
Dayton Rubber, make it your bus
mess to tell him what the CLIO
has done for you, your family
and your fellow workers. Take
advantage of this opportunity to
strengthen the Dayton CIO by
Strengthening the CIO vote at
Dayton Rubber. Every Go worker
can help in this way to organize
the unorganized.
Take your cue from the words
of John L. Lewis, who said to
organized workers at the 1889 CLIO
convention, Bring in the un-
organized! Strengthen and So
lidify! Garry on! Because there
is work to dol"

Tool and Die makers of Dayton,
working in the most important
job shops, are rapidly swinging
to the UE-CIO. At an open meet
ing held last week bench and
machine men pointed out the
many injustices that exist in the
plants. They pledged to build a
strong Tool and Die Local that
would unite all of Dayton's tool
makers and machinists.
The program and policies of the
UE-ClO were fully explained
and those present were impressed
by the democratic, rank-and- file
organization of the UE, it's low
dues and initiation fee, and it's
record of achievement in Dayton.
Employees of Sheffield Gage
particularly pointed out the need
of Union organization to eliminate
inequalities in rates, and favorit-
ism. eve also have to think about
the future, and what will happen
after this boom is over" stated
others.
Dayton toolmakers are on the
road to building their own Tool
and Die Local of the UE-CIO.
The thousands of UTE members in
Dayton pledge them full support,
and urge them to go forward full
speed.

The question that arises in the
minds of these workers is this!
"What a be done to better the
Infamous conditions?" The answer
is simple.
Organize, work as partners to
raise your working standards to
the highest levels of any of the
workers in Dayton! A strong,
militant Union, the United Eec-
trical, Radio and Machine Work.
ers of America has built and
maintained a working organiza-
ton at Delco and Frigidaire. This
Union has elevated the standards
of other workers in Dayton. Why
not NCR2
In the next few years, the cost
of living is going to rise to TN
heard of heights. IF the workers
of the nation do not band to-
gether to protect their rights, the
fall of American standards Is
bound to follow.

ORGANIZATION IS
+ NEED AT MGR

What has happened to the spirit of the American worker?
In MGR one of the largest manufacturing plants in the City of
Dayton, the workers are being reduced to the actual conditions of
a sweat shop!
Under the tyranny of a pussy footing company union, the
workers are losing all faith in the rights of the American people to
share in the high standards of living which they produce. This is
rapidly becoming intolerable to those who realize that in the face
of rising prices, their living conditions are being lowered.

Delco Products management
followed Frigidaire by a week in
the distribution of back pay
checks to its employees. The
checks covered an 8-week period
dating back to the retroactive
date, April 18th, specified in the
National UE-GM contract.
The employees of Delco Pro-
ducts, 5000 of them, received
checks ranging from $32 to $50
accounting for increases of 100
to 24t per hour.
This "UE Dividend represents
the 100 hourly increase plus the
adjustments in rates negotiated
locally and which brings to Delco
employees an average increase of
almost 14e per hour.
The many worried expressions
you saw around town last week
were Delco employees worrying
how to make the best use of the
money. Your correspondent offers
the suggestion he used himself.
Part of the back pay carried the
expense of a fishing trip over the
Fourth. Part of it went to pay
one years dues in appreciation
of the efforts of the Union.
e. J. Kraft, President of
Local 755, stated All Delco
Products employees can show
their support of this organiza-
ton by making the shop 1OO%
Union on the basis of what
has already been accomplish
ed. There is no sound reason
anymore for any individual
to question the value of a
Union. We again invite every
worker to join and help make

shop agreement when negotiations
are open again.
The Stewards Council of Local
753 will meet July 28th. At this
meeting a plan of action will be

made to speed up organization.
A discussion on how to use the
Grievance Procedure to the best
advantage, will be held. An
announcement will be made as
to the time and place of the

insist that his steward attend the

A Union Committee headed by
John Good, together with Dewitt
Howard, Willis W. Armstrong,
Paul Troester, and Joe S. Brown,
carried on the successful negotia-
tons. The Company was repre-

The general wage increase is a

members, since wage increases
were won last February, when

present increases are all the more
significant, since they were won
while the contract was still in
effect.
In reporting on the successful
negotiations, Brother Good stat

ONE
Two PIonts-Two Labor Policies

teaches us that a written contract
serves as the foundation and
framework around which sound
and constructive collective bar
gaining is established.
In two different issues of the
Dayton Union News, we have
written about the attitudes
towards our Union of the Delco
Products and Frigidaire manage
ments. We noted in writing about
Frigidaire that management was
on trial before its employees in
the application of questioned pol
icies that would affect wages and
working conditions.
In Delco we noted that the
plant was like a new place to
work in. Management had ac-
copied the Union and its sug-
g~estions for the improvement
of working conditions.
We would like to say that both
plants have learned from exper-
fence that cooperation with their
employees and their bargaining
agent is the best policy. But what
are the facts? Delco Products is
still following its policy of CO.
operating. Frigidaire is still fol-
lowing its policy of grudgingly
extending any measure of con-
cessions. ...
Improvement at Delco
Both plants are working under
the same contract, negotiated ma
tionally with General Motors.
This fact proves that collective
bargaining, in the fullest and
complete sense, is not-just a con-
tract. It is the application of the
contract and its Interpretation in
the light of the everyday problems
and grievances that arise which
constitutes collective bargaining.
A contract is a living thing-not
a dead letter.
We are proud that our Union
has continued to maintain har-
monious relations with the Delco
Products management. We haven't
gotten everything we want. But
by and large, the more important
economic concessions have been
settled to the satisfaction of the
employees. The Union by its
strength won these gains. Manage
ment has recognized and accepted
this fact. Now that these problems
have been solved, the employees
and management are sitting down
to peacefully and honestly settle
all questions that come up every
day in the form of grievances.
When a grievance is presented,
top management and the top
committee of the Union roll up
their sleeves and dig in for all
the facts and solve the problem
on the basis of justice.
It is a tribute to the Company's
farsightedness. It is winning the
respect Of the employees. It will
tell in the better product which
is manufactured, and the good
name which Delco wins through
out the industry and in the COM
munity.

employees. through their organization in UE Local 753.
The midland journal. (Rising Sun, Md.) 1885-1947, 1941-10-31

THIS matter of expecting even the
4 stronger football teams to win all
of their games or most of their
games is a point all of joint-if
point can have a joint. Even the
Yankees and Dodgers, good enough
to carry off pair of pennants, won
only two-thirds of their starts, and
football should be judged in much
the same manner.
There are too many strong teams
in the field today for old grads to
keep expecting one victory after an
other. Many have now even reached
the point Of tossing out teams that
happen to have lost single game.
On this basis where would the
Dodgers have been last spring when
even the Giants beat them three
straight to open the season? AS Bob
Zuppke once said, "Out in that
Big Ten I can lose every game and
still look good" And that might be
true.
Accidents, tough breaks, injuries
and other details can often make
difference of two or three touch
downs in game. The psychology
ical setup has wide ranges.
The main answer is that any team
playing a first-class schedule can
look back on good season If It can
win majority Of its starts. Last
season, for example, Minnesota won
every game-yet Minnesota had the
closest possible calls against Michi-
gan, Northwestern and Ohio State,
with whom just slender flop in luck
the other way might have brought
the gallant Gophers three setbacks.
That's the way football is. One or
two breaks, especially in the passing
game, can raise an abnormal
amount of old-fashioned Cain. It has
been that way every season, and this
should be no exception.

PLANNING. AHEAD

One afternoon I again had the
pleasure of meeting with the re-
gional directors of the social securi-
ty board. This time / heard them
discuss some of the problems which
are facing them, not only today,
but in the future. Very wisely, they
are thinking not only of such things
as they may have to meet now,
but of what may come when the
present emergency is at an end and
another period of readjustment is
before us.

find so many groups looking for
ward and planning ahead, so that
we shall not be caught unawares.

experiences in the past.
