unions today know nothing more about
organized labor and its detectives than
that they are required to pay dues III
order to hold their jobs.
''The conclusion is inescapable that
one of the prime duties that rests
upon men such as you is to educate
and inform the newcomer as to exact
ly what the organized labor movement
means. They cannot be expected to
grasp all of this without definite steps
being taken to acquaint them with the
prime requirements which their Obli-

Part of War-Wiming Program
In introducing the victory revue
"You Can Defend America" to the re-
cent convention of the California State
Federation of Labor, President Dale
Reed of Lodge 72T, one of the nations
largest local unions. said
"This is the fourth time | will have
seen this revue. Long before Pearl
Harbor You Can Defend America
was at work among the employees of
the Lockheed and Vega Aircraft Cor
pOration, which employees make up
Lodge 727, i'm the form of distribution
of $4,000 copies of the handbook of
the same tile. The story portrayed in
this handbook to our employees proved
an invaluable aid to production within
the plant i'm the difficult pre-war
months of rapidly expanding person
mel. and its effect has been an all
round speed-up of war production from
the assembly line TO the completed
airplane.
The revue you are about to see is
playing an important part in our war
winning program, and | believe that
this revue should become II ma jOr part
of labor'S war-winning program"
Trained i'm Moral Rearmanent
Largely responsible 70" the develop
ment of this program at LOckheedS
have been two youthful union stew
ards, trained over II period of years in
the program of moral rearmament.
The following incidents are typical of
the war-winning spirit in the plant
In November the union appealed to
the employee, to work on Thanksgiy-
ing Day, i'm view of the urgent need of
planes for our fighting forces. Under
the union contract, they did not have
to work and would still receive Il full
days pay. If they did work, Presi-
dent RoOsevelt's Executive Order No.
924O would limit total holiday pay to
time and n half instead of the double
time specified in the contract. Due to
the high morale of the plant, for
which considerable credit can be given
to the spirit Of the moral rcarmament
program, absenteeiSm Thanksgiving
Day was only slightly higher than on
IL regular working day.
