Death Of Edwards
Shock To L. u. 20
Assigned To u. S. S. Pollux.
Lost OF The Coast Of
Newfoundland

Minerva, Ohio-The people of Miner
va, and particularly the members of
Local No. 20 We're ineXpressibly sad
dened by a recent War Department
announcement of the death of James
Edwards, youngest son of our Secre-
tary, Brother Abe Edwards.
No details are available as yet eX-
cept that young Edwards made the
supreme sacrifice in the performance
of his duty while in the service of his
country.
He enlisted in the U. S. Navy in
September of last year, and after pre-
liminary training was assigned to the
L. S. s. POlluX which was lost off the
coast of Newfoundland on February IS.
He was graduated from Minerva High
School in the class of 1888 and prior
to his enlistment was an accountant
in Cleveland
Besides his parents, Brother and
Mrs. Edwards, he is survived by two
School Squadron, Barracks 772, Scott
Field. Ill.,, and William Edwards of
Freedom, Pa; also two sisters, Mrs
Edwin Bucher of Minerva and Mrs
James Johnson of KOkOmO, Ind
The heartfelt sympathy Of the en-
tire membership of Local No. 20 goes
out to Brother Edwards and his family
in their hour of sorrow, and we pray
that the sacrifice of their son and
brother may not have been made in
vain.

Washington, u. C.-The American
Federation of Labor received direct as
SuranceS from Administration and Con-
greSSiOnal leaders that way will be
worked out promptly to provide extra
compensation for workers displaced
from their jobs by priorities or con-
version of industrial plants to war
production.
The plan tentatively agreed upon
calls for direct appropriation of
$15O,OOOOOO to $3OO,OOO,OOO to be ex-
pended through the WPA or some
other appropriate Federal agency.
The new proposal has been taken up
by President William Green of the
American Federation of Labor with
President Roosevelt and Speaker Ray
burn of the House of Representatives.
1t is substitute for the Admins
tration plan which was voted down re-
Gently by the House Ways and Means
Committee after many state officials
had protested that it would bring
about LIBERALIZATION of the Social Sc
curity system. The new plan does not
contemplate any change in the present
unemployment compensation law and
therefore should overcome the objec-
tions of the state officials.

millions of workers who had been and

Cambridge Po++ers

First And Fourth Monday
Of Each Month

Cambridge, OhiO-Members of No.
122 at the first session in March de-
cided to move from the present hall
to the Eagles building. The meetings
will be on the same schedule, the first
and fourth Mondays of each month.
Traffic noise, poor ventilation, stair
climbing and other inconveniences were
old hall. Keep this change in mind
and don't 90 to the wrong place.
The question of reducing the month
ly union dues was up for considera-
ton, but left undecided subject to in
vestigation to determine the minimum
amount required for monthly eX-
penSeS. The trustees and other officials
will attempt to determine expenses and
recommend an amount for monthly
dues which will properly finance the
local activities without having large
assets.
All members owing three or more
months dues must settle Immediately
or they will be suspended and Il ra-
instatement fee will be required. The
few delinquent members who evade
their union obligations and responsible
ties, waste the time of the officials
and all members in attendance debat-
ing procedure and application Of the
law. Not to mention the time and eff
fort of the shop committee.
The chronic delinquent can easily
develop into an organic nuisance un-
worthy of tolerance The Brotherhood
has been instrumental in securing
many benefits for the employees of the
pottery industry. If you can share in
these benefits, you must share in the
expense. SO come across and don't eN-
pect some committeeman to chase you
down every two weeks. o. c. 122.

Grafton Poffers
Cooperate While
Repairs Are Made
Bottoms Of Kilns Replaced
With Minimum Loss Of
Production

Grafton, w. Va.-The employees at
Carr China are back on full time
again, and we are looking forward for
another run OF steady work. The slack
was caused when the bottoms of all
the kilns were replaced. Due to the
fact that the repairs were made at
night and over the week ends. this
work was done in record time and
with a minimum loss Of production.
While the workmen directly respon-
Sible for this record are to he duely
remembered it may he we'll to mention
the fact that the others on the shop
should come in for their share of
praise for the splendid cooperation
overcoming difficulties arising when
these repairs were in progress This
is especially so in the case of the
Isisque kilnplacers and drawers who
bore the brunt Of the slack
There has been slight change in
the official family due to the resigna-
ton OF w. J. Frey, II, taking effect
the first of the month. His duties have
been taken over by Mr.. Russell Smith,
foreman of the decorating department,
and Mr.. Fl. l.. Bowen who will look
after the others duties formerly per-
formed by Mr.. Frey.
Dan Cupid made another direct hit
when Myrtle Weaver, of the print de-
partment, was married to the towns
leading photographer Brother George
Pugh suffered painful accident when
he slipped down pair of steps and
broke his arm. 1t is a compound frac-
ture and George will be off work for
some time His dish jigger will he OPP
Grated by his brother during his alb
sense.
Our deepest sympathy goes out to
Brother Ed Thinner for the loss of
his son Frank, who fsssssed away SIM

Frank is the Oldest of three children,
two daughters remaining with their
mother and father. He attended Graf
ton High School. Frank was also one
of the pin boys at the Ceramic Club

Paden City Local
Still Hunting Hall
Attendance Still Climbing:
Albert Van Camps Name
Is Drawn

Paden City. w. Va.-Local Union
No 146 reporting once again. AS pre-
viously mentioned, the membership has
been waiting for report from the
trustees to know whether or not a
permanent meeting place, owned and
operated by the local union, would be
possible. Well, dark clouds are hanging
over the members heads. The purchase
of the former Southern Methodist
church is impossible unless used as Il
place of worship. So reads the deed.
All members honor, respect and obey
the rules and regulations of the or
ganiZation, but as to the worship
clause, that is where the local
will have to exit, as we do not want
to start a church. So Local 146 is
still without Il meeting hall, but
on the lookout for another building.
It's hard to tell whether bank night
is drawing the crowds to the meetings
or because the people have Il lot of
grievances. No matter the meetings are
becoming more popular among the
members. Albert NanCamp's name was
called for the three dollar door prize,
but he was not present. Next week the
drawing will be for six dollars in de-
Tense stamps.
This membership is glad to hear that
the annual picnic is being held at Aley-
erS Lake Park in Canton. 1t won't be
so long before the big event and you
can bet your sweet life Aunt Minnie
and all of Paden City will be there
with lunch baskets. o. c. 146.

America Must Be "Lund Of
Performance" AFL Chief
Says In Address

New York City-America, the land
of promise, must now become the land
of performance in order to win the
told the nation in an address broad
cast from the annual labor dinner of
the Greater New York Fund
He pledged labor's full aid in pro-
ducing the planes. tanks, ships and
guns necessary for victory but he
warned that the soldiers of production
cannot do their job and do it right if
they are constantly harassed by at
tacks from selfish interests.
Mr.. Green addressed his warning
particularly to those who talk loudest
for national unity yet, ut the same
time, conduct vicious sniping cam
paigns against labor which are destruc-
tive to unity.
81 say to you that this must halt"
he emphasized.
Mr.. Green pointed out that labor vol
unfairly has renOunced the exercise of
the right to strike for the duration and
that it has agreed to work longer hours
to increase production. But instead of
being commended and encouraged in
these patriotic sacrifices, labor is con-
demned for few, isolated, local work
StOppageS, it's standards are assaulted
in Congress and it's wages threatened
with being frozen.
''That is the surest way of destroy
ing the faith of American workers in
a square deal from their Government"
Mr.. Green charged. 1--WE must keep
that faith alive now ut any cost. In
this war victory depends upon the
soldiers of production just as much as
upon our armed forces. American
workers, who are our soldiers of pro-
duction, must feel that the whole coun-
try is supporting them and backing
them in the gigantic task OF building
the planes, tanks, guns and ships re-
quired by our victory program. They
can't do the job and do 1t right if they
