Tool and Die

In an effort to reach a satisfac-
tory settlement of the special de-
nands made for tool and die
makers, and maintenance workers,
the War Labor Board, together
with the War Manpower Commits
sion, is arranging a special con-
ference in Detroit, within the next
two weeks. In addition to gov
eminent and union representatives,
the conference will be attended
by officials of General Motors,
Ford, Chrysler, and the employer
associations of the tool and die
industry. There may be a separ-
ate meeting to handle the main
tenance workers problem; how
ever, no definite word has been
given out as yet.
, 1942-08-19
Overtime

The panel unanimously recon-
mended that the present agree
ment covering hours of work and
overtime pay, which ended the
practice of paying double time for
Sundays and holidays as such,
should be continued. The panel
also unanimously recommended
that call-in pay be increased from
two to three hours, and recon-
mended that all employees with
five years seniority be granted
two weeks vacation or 80 hours
pay. The present contract calls
for only one weeks vacation or
40 hours pay for all employees
with one years seniority.
, 1942-08-19
Night Shift Bonus

The majority of the panel recon-
mended an increase in the night
shift bonus from so to 1879 on
the grounds that "a substantial
bonus is necessary for the main
tenance of that morale of the
workers on those shifts which is
necessary to maximum produc-
ton" The bonus would be paid
to employees working on shifts,
half or more of the working hours
of which are between the hours
of 6 p. M. and 6 a. m. The en-
ployer member of the panel dis
sented on the ground that a so
bonus was standard in the in
dustry./

that job ever since. Under his
leadership, the Cincinnati Locals
consolidated their position in most
of the large clothing shops after
a series of vigorous strikes.
In 1887, when the CLIO was
formed, the organizational up
surge, aided by the Wagner Act,
enabled the Cincinnati Joint Board
to make a clean sweep of all the
unorganized Local shops.

Board of the Ohio CLIO Council

Union Security

On the demand of both unions
for the union shop, the public and
labor members of the panel recon-
mended a maintenance of member
ship clause which would require
all members in good standing as
of January l, to maintain their
membership for the duration of
the contract, which is to expire
April %, 1913. The clause pro-
vides that present dues and mi
tiation fees shall not be increased
except with the approval of the
international union. The employer
member of the panel recommended
a maintenance of membership
clause differing from the recon-
mendation of the majority in two
respects. In the first place, it
would require only those en-
ployees who are members in good
standing as of the date of the
directive order of the Board to
maintain their membership. In
the second place, failure to main
tain membership in good stand
ing would not subject the en-
ployee to discharge if he consents
to have his dues deducted for the
duration of the contract.

rector of the War Manpower Com
mission, and Patrick T. Pagan, Dis
trict President of the United Mine

tween General Motors and Ford.
William II. Doran, Vice President
of the Metropolitan Edison Com
pany, the employer member of

pose of narrowing the d~ifferential
