Highway Department
Increases Pau Scale

General increases in the wage and
salary scales Of all Montana highway
department maintenance employees
have been approved by the state high
way commission. This will cost the
department an additional 100000 an
nually, A. F. Winkler, commission
chairman, said.
Winkler said the increases were
made after thorough study of the
state situation was completed and that
the object is to make more uniform
the wage scales throughout the state.
Previously, he explained, wages were
determined by prevailing rates in the
county in which the employe was Sit
uated.
The commission also decided to fol-
low the policy set up by the state
board of examiners recently by giving
vacations with pay to those perma-
nent employees called to armed service.

In the past few months thous-
ands of men and women all over
the country have joined the CLIO.
In our own Electrical Industry
alone, 10000 workers joined the
UE the past year. Now, what is
the answer?
Workers, both men and women
are realizing they cannot get the
various benefits from a COM
PANY CONTROLLED GROUP
such as we have at MGR. A group
that sponsors MAINTENANCE Of
MEMBERSHIP without a vote by
the members concerned.
How much longer are you, the

How much longer are you going
to stand for such things as GEO.

the COMPANY UNION, and also
telling men and women to join and

he is, the FOREMAN of D 8 Dept,
or is Mr.. Throm still the HEAD
MAN?
The majority of workers are be-
ginning to wake UP, and are join
ing a real organization, the UE-
CLIO. And it is our pledge to
never give up, and to keep on
presenting FACTS in our litera-
ture to the men and women at

take the trouble to check they will

WLB Assigns
Referee To
Airtemp

The National War Labor Board
has notified UE Local 768, that
H. L. Sylvester, has been assigned
as referee for a hearing to be
held in Dayton, Ohio. Arrange
ments have been approved by the
Airtemp Management and the
Union to hold the hearing at the
plant on Friday, October 80, 1912.
Although the War Labor Board
has issued a decision in the Chrys-
Ter JAW case, providing for a
general d. per hour wage adjust
ment for production workers, and
special adjustments for tool and
maintenance division, the Airtemp
case is still pending before the
War Labor Board.
UE Local 8O6 contends that
wages at Airtemp are not COM
parable to the prevailing wage for
similar work in other plants in
the community. According to in
structions from the War Labor
Board the referee will conduct
a hearing and the various state
ments of the Union and the COM
pany will be forwarded to the War
Labor Board for final decision.
Airtemp members are requested to
refer any question concerning
their particular job to the depart
ment steward, who in turn will
submit them to the Union Office.

Union Council
Naze4---

We would like to introduce a
man who has been very active in
the duties of this council. His name
is Jack Bourquin and he is q
Council delegate from UE Local
755 of Delco.
Bourquin is the chairman of one
of the most important committees
of this Council, the Committee on
Political Action. In the course of
his work, he has subjected to the
most rigid of investigation, the
work and records of all candidates
who are seeking election and those
who are holding office.
AS the advisor to the CIO Locals
on matters pertaining to the legis-
lative status of Organized Labor,
the Political Action Committee
has to check on every move that
is made in the halls of our govern
mental representatives.
The average member does not
realize the tremendous efforts
that are made all over the country
to protect, through fair legisla-
ture, the standards of the workers
in our industrial plants. As long
as the Council has the services of
men like Jack Bourquinb our
membership need never fear for
their political safety.
This is just another of the ser
vices, little %publicized, but highly
important, that a CLIO member
gets in return for his %affiliation
with a progressive Labor move
ment.

Continued uncontrolled imi-

the representatives of manage
ment, labor, the United States en-
ployment service and the army
agreed last week.
A question confronting labor
supply to local industries which
was discussed at the meeting and
considered of paramount impor-
lance was the full utilization OF
the local labor supply in order to
prevent unnecessary migration
of workers which would further
complicate the serious housing and
transportation problem here.
George E. Weigold, manager of
the Dayton field office of the
United States employment service,
presented an analysis of the local
labor market showing the needs
of Dayton war industries and the
group authorized the local en-
ployment office to conduct, in the
near future, a survey or census OF
women in this area who will be
available for work in war produc-
ton.
The census to be conducted by
