Na+ionoI Supply:
ouR SCRAPPY UNIT

One Of the youngest branches
engaged in the war effort, the
National Supply Unit is composed
of a sassy and somewhat ever
optimistic membership.
As scrappy and quarrelsome as
brothers of a large family, our
boys are ever ready to defend the
rights of labor in a solid phalanx.
We may have our arguments, but
just let someone try to weaken
our union, and wham! The whole
gang goes into instant action.
This volatile outfit is not averse
to putting on the swank. We spent
$500 to outfit our office, and that
amt hay"
Our bylaws would do credit TO
any good local. We are the first
unit to consider itself good enough
to rate a President and Vice
president, instead of mere chair
man. Our members demand that
their officers be the toughest men
available. Only fighter is re-
spected, and he must prove his
mettle on an instant's notice. This
applies from president to steward.
We have an excellent contract.
Shop seniority, job bidding, ap-
prentice training, and many pro-
tective clauses in our contract are
enforced to the letter.
Even though we did have some
trouble getting the closed shop, we
did finally get it, and every elig-
ible worker was brought into our
Union. Moreover, every active

The Spicer Unit
SaLutes A NetU
Union Voice
By KEITH WEIGH.

The members of the Spicer Unit
feel that the advent Of the Toledo
Union Journal reaffirms the alert
ness of Local u and its leadership.
This paper and Local 12's lead
ership should provide a focal point
for the liberal Union forces Of this
community. Below are some q
the things we believe should be acA
complished and We do not think
that anyone vii say that our ex-
pectations are too great.
In the political field, it will in
some measure create a constrU ,tive
force for our political idor 1t
will substitute complete cJr rage
and analysis Of the records o plo-
lie Officials.
1t will guide US in voting by
keeping a check on Local and State
Officers, by telling US whether
Congressman are supporting or un-
dermining our efforts to win the
War, and whether Government
leadership is incompetent or eff
cient. The knowledge gained by
carefully reading each issue will
teach US how to use our voting
power to gain and maintain our
main objective = the balance of
power in political elections in this
locality.
In the field of Unionism it will
furnish the information to enable
US to keep ahead of the Employer
and his organized campaign to rem
der Unionism here futile. Public
opinion will be vital, and $4,000
voices with convincing answers to
those attacks will go far toward
swinging that opinion our way.
Finally, it is another step toward
our goal in Local u, the organiza-
ton and education Of every person
under our jurisdiction.
Toledo union journal. [volume] (Toledo, Ohio) 1942-current, 1942-11-27

realize that we have come a long
way on our journey to the place
which we ultimately hope to reach.
All we have asked was the right
to organize and collectively bar
gain, all we seek, in addition to
these rights, is the right to secur-
ity against want and unemploy-
ment, and security in our old age
when we shall no longer be able
to work.
If we have advanced our cause
by showing our fellow-men that we
are not self-seekers but a united
group Of people with a common
purpose; if we have succeeded in
educating our members to practice
and realize solidarity; if we make
our outstanding growth healthy
and keep it that way, then the
future need hold no fears for US.
Instead of resting from our eff
forts, we shall rededicate ourselves
to the task of preparing ourselves
for the difficulties which the fu-
ture surely holds for us, armed
with the comforting thought that
we have come through crisis after
crisis and managed to maintain
our organization and growth.
What shall follow after this war
has been concluded no man knows;
but we do know that as we have
fought for our right to live in a
labor organization of our own
choosing; as we are working and
fighting to live in a country dedi-
Gated to the cause of Freedom; so
we shall continue to stand for those
things which are our rights, and
for which we shall, if necessary,
fight again.
Local II has come long way
in few short years, and we of
Local IL are proud of our history.

Sends Boxes
Servicemen Get
Chrisfmos Gifts

Six hundred members of the
WHY'S Overland Unit, now in the
armed services of the United
States, are going to have Merry
Christmas because of the patriotic
generosity of their fellow workers
who contributed the money to
purchase the goodies and comforts
which are now on the way to the
boys.
On Tuesday morning, November
10, big truck backed up to the
door of the Maplewood Market,
3249 Maplewood Avenue, where
Dean Jones, Chairman of the Serv-
icemen's Welfare Committee, aided
by his fellow committeeman and
plenty of volunteer workers, be-
gan the job of loading 800 big boxes
for shipment to all parts of the
world.
"Maybe it is quite a while until
Christmas" said Brother Jones,
"but this thing sure gives me the
Christmas spirit"
His words were reflected by the
rest of his committee, who pitched
in and worked like Trojans until
the job of loading the truck was
completed, and the shipment was
on its way with the best wishes of
everyone for a Merry Christmas to
the boys of the WHY'S Unit now
fighting for their country.
Since the plan of sending boxes
to WHY'S Overland servicemen or
iginated 6 months ago, Dean
Jones estimated that several thou
sand boxes have reached former
WHY'S workers. The boxes are paid
for by the Unit which secures the
fund each month by collections in
all departments of the plant.
Last months collection amount
ing to more than $4,000 was

Mather Spring Unit is not for
getting its boys in the armed serv-

all, box each month containing
cigarettes, smoking tobacco, razor
blades, candy, cookies and similar
useful articles.
Funds are raised among the
Mather Unit members by
monthly collection which has
gradually been mounting as more
of the unit enters the army, navy
and marines.

Champion Unit has 30 members
in the military service.
Checks for $50 have been given
to members who were drafted or
who enlisted. Since July of this
year, $3.50 has been sent to our
boys. This fund is from the con-
tributions of the workers in the
plant, and is taken up each week
in order to maintain a fund of
$3.50.
