Killers Failure

The writer gave her large
audience a closeup view OF
Adolph Hitler as she had seen
him on various occasions. With
reference to the automobile.
Mrs. Mccormick pointed out
that Hitler might have gone
down in history instead of being
destroyed by his own folly if he
had carried out his announced
plan in 1889 to provide "Volks-
wagon" or cheap car Tor the
people Of Germany.
Mrs. Mccormick told of thou
sands floeking to Berlin from
every section of the country to
view this auto which Hitler said
he would place within the reach
of all his people. They eyed it
with awe. she said, stroked the
metal and the paint and tried to
visualize themselves as the
owners of such a precious vehi-
Gle. But 1t was never to be
theirs.
1t is the automobile within
reach of every class, she said,
that exemplified the superiority
of our mode of life over that of
Europe. She credited the indus
try with making this possible.
Among her audience were the
younger Ford, Charles Sorenson,

scr of the union. Today,
r. or. the issue is becoming
e. q different unions, and the
! shop is one that employs
members Of only one union
is closed TO all others.
We should all understand that
there is something to be said for
the closed shop idea in general.
II the union movement were
new, the employers were OPP
posed TO all unions, and the laws
favored capital, then the closed
shop might be defended. Labor
organization and collective bar
gaining are desirable. and selfish
individual laborers who will not
cooperate for the legitimate
common good of all labor have
TO be dealt with.

superintendent of schools, said
today.
81 would like everyone to
bear in mind that like every
thing else, the schools are in a
period of great change" Fast
said. 1--WE have tried to foresee
every contingency, but If rush
of new and unforeseen enroll
ments should happen to disrupt
the first few days of school
opening, we ask the people to
be patient.
Mr.. Fast went on to say that
the schools have been the tar
get for some criticism the last
few months. Some people feel
that i'm view of the national
emergency, the schools should
devote more and more of their
facilities to courses of training
for defense workers.
Most of our critics don't
realize the difficulties in setting
up such training courses" said
Mr.. Fast. 1--WE have tried to get
machinery, for one thing, and
it is almost a hopeless task,
since machinery is all being di-
verted into factories actually
engaged in defense work.

F. Siefert announced today.
There will be no class ses-

gistration will begin at $3.50
o'clock, followed by a faculty
meeting at 1890 am.
The members of the faculty
for 1941-42, who are returning,
include Supt. E. F. Siefert, who
has been an instructor here for
the past Is years and will begin
his 9th year as superintendent.
Other members include Miss
Edna Boyd of Elwell as prnici-
pal; Maurice Pernert, of St.
Louis, athletic coach, mathema-
tics and science; Jarvis Hotring,
English and speech; Miss Bess
Calvin, Ann Arbor, CONNER
cial; Mrs. Faye Polly, third
and fourth grades; Miss Frances
McRee, second grade; and Mrs.
Della Oemig, first grade and

The new members of the
faculty are Miss Elizabeth

omics and English; Allyn
Kehrer, of Watervliet, assistant

seventh grades; and Velma
Howe, of Everett, 5th grade.
The daily monitor. (Mount Clemens, Mich.) 1940-1942, 1941-08-26

Another very real problem
is space for the classes. It II
well known that our school
buildings are hard put to house
the regular school children. We
have investigated the possibili-
ties Of leasing some kind Of
space in a store building, but
the only place we can find in
Mount Clemens is entirely UNI
satisfactory. 1t is a basement
room with only one exit aud 1t
would be dangerous fire-trap.
Certain persons have gone so
far as to suggest to us that we
forego some of the activities
that the schools are regularity
engaged in and devote the space
thus vacated to defense train
ing" Fast continued. "How-
ever, we cannot see merit in
this plan. If what we are doing
was justifiable in the past, it
is even more justifiable today.
The schools primary business
is to make intelligent citizens
of the children, and this work
must not be stopped, especially
at the present"
Leaving the subject of de-
tense, Mr.. Fast said that the
most pressing need of the school
system at the moment is a
junior high school. Seventh
and eighth grades are now
taught in the high school, and
q severe lack of space is felt
there, he said.
Mr.. Fast also emphasized the
fact that he is always open to
suggestions from the public.
eff at any time anyone feels
he has a suggestion that we
might use in making the schools
better" he said, 81 would be
very glad to discuss it with
him."

I Remember
 By Richard E.. CrOskey
 Local 4O4 Cooks & Walters Union
INDUSTRIAL UNIONISM

History repeats itself is a true saying. The Western-afterwards American-Labor Union was the starter of the theory of Industrial Unionism-and not the C.I.O., as may be supposed. I was a delegate to the convention of the Western Labor Union at its 1903 Denver. Colo, meeting. Ff
 WESTERN LABOR UNION
 The W.L.U. was originated by President Edward Boyce of the West ern Federation of Miners. The pur- pose was to organize the unskilled workers, as Boyce had found out that when his unions were on strike, many of the unorganized workers were re- cruited to act as strike breakers. Ii did considerable organizing in the West so that at its 1903 Convention it changed its name to the American Labor Union. Dan Mcdonald of Butte was president and Smith its secretary.
 It was very liberal in its politics and at this convention we had galaxy of outside talent present, among then Eugene V. Debs and Catholic priest named Father Haggerty who came there with chart which he had di- vided into four or five parts. Each of these parts represented different divisions of workers, for instance Building Trades, Metal Trades, Print ing Trades, Food Trades, etc. The hub was the directors, with a repre- sentative of each of these divisions comprising the executive board, with of course, president and secretary. The plan was to have one head for each of the different divisions and all charters for all unions comprising this division would be issued from one source. For instance: all the building traades would have one president likewise the food trades would have one president, regardless of whether they were cooks, walters, bakers, butchers or clerks.
