New York City ULNS).-Organized
labor's opposition to job freezing and
any attempt to revive prohibition was
expressed by President William Green
of the American Federation of Labor
in a vigorous speech before the con-
vention of the Distillery, Rectifying
and Wine Workers International
Union, at the Hotel Commodore here.
Legislation providing for the freez-
ing of workers to their jobs is pre-
mature" President Green declared, in
outlining the conditions under which
labor would agree to such q proposal
if it became necessary. One such con-
dition, he said, must be the abolition
of private profit in war industries.
Before resort is made to job freezing,
the AFL head maintained definite pre-

Fine Turnout At
Lost Meeting Of
Local Union 10
CdrrYing-Out Question Car
ried Over Until Next
Meeting
PRESIDENT DUFFY VISITS
Delinquent Members Re-
ceive Final Notice Before
Suspension
PRESIDENT DUFFY VISITS

A record turnout was on hand at
our last meeting to hear the report of
the committee investigating the hiring
of girls in the clayshop for moving
boards. Many of the Brothers took the
floor in the discussion and Judging
from the different reports, ii seems
every shop has their own idea as to
what boards the girls are to move and
what they are not to move.
We realize that due to the manpower
shortage which cOnfrontS all industries
today, it has been found necessary to
hire female help for certain jobs that
were done by men. W lille we do
not wish to protest the hiring of the
weaker sex, there is Il limit to all
things and we feel that if women are
hired in the clayshop to do this work,
it is our place to do the hiring and not
the firm. Our agreement plainly states
this and the attitude taken by certain
manufacturers, who repeatedly have
gone out of their way to violate it, GER
tainly shows they are not doing their
part in seeking Il solution for the many
obstacles that face the industry today.
Due to the absence of the chairman
of this committee, no final action was
taken and it was ordered carried over
until our next meeting.
President Duffy dropped in on our
meeting and gave us some very good
advice on many questions. He explained
the action taken by the delegates at the
A. f. of l.. Convention on many matters
that confronts labor today, and the
part that the laboring man is perform
ing in the struggle against the Axis.
His talk was enjoyed by everyone
present and we hope he can find time
to come back soon.
With everyone having steady work
today, there is absolutely no reason
why any brother should allow himself
to get behind in his dues and assess
ments. If YOU are sick and unable to
work, notify your secretary and the
union will take care of you. Two bro
theirs who were ordered to report at the
meeting and failed to do so will be
given until next meeting night to
square up or be suspended. Remember
brothers, the minute you are suspended,
you stop work. Would it not be easier
to pay few dollars now than $500
for reinstatement.-O.C. 10.

BY unanimous vote on the final day
of the convention. the delegates en-

urged that every possible effort be
made to secure for the ILO adequate
financial support to enable it not only
to carry on the extensive program of
research and administration in which
it is now engaged but to extend and
expand its work in keeping with the
rapidly growing usefulness of its pro,

The report, presented by Matthew

that it might be said of the LILO. that
Its builders built better than they

out, 1.-The LILO. has gone on, despite
the loss of its permanent home in
