REL Men Force Better Contract From Traction COMPANY

Red lead in combination with lin
seed oil, according to the Brother

Again in abetting visual conditions

John S. O'COnnell, who doesn't
talk of his age and who has been a
member of Local "a, New Haven

1905, recently registered for Sc

John, who "has always enjoyed be-

Back bridgeport Plan;
''Sunshine Prevents T.B."

The President of the Bridgeport
Central Labor Union; Thomas Muir
ply, business agent of Local 19l
Bridgeport, and New Haven Sales
men-Drivers and president of the
Joint Council of Teamsters No. "a;
and Joseph A. Julianelle, secretary
of the Bridgeport Industrial Union
Council, have voiced whole-hearted
approval of the bridgeport plan''
as a movement to encourage nutri.
tiOus lunches for the city's ''soldiers
of production
PLANT CAFETERIAS
However, while praising the plan
to get information concerning nutri-
ton into the hands of housewives, we
called for reform measures directed at
plant cafeterias and at concerns which
supply box lunches to factory en-
ployes. Rigid sanitary inspections and
supervision by dieticians of all lunch
preparations have also been asked for.
Murphy and l proposed mass meet
ings for union members and their
wives with health authorities as
speakers and the showing of films
stressing the importance of good nu-
triton. Literature explaining the
need for good food should be distrib-
uted in food and drink deliveries. Both
of us offered to assist in the deliveries.
Some box luncheon concerns were
praised with the main attack conferred
on the fy-by-night outfits here to
fatten on the needs of the workers.
PREVENTING T.B.
Julianelle stressed the need for
good food and sunshine to prevent
tuberculosis the increase of which
in Bridgeport has been reported by
DIR. Ira v. Hiscock of the Yale
School of Medicine. He also thought
that the increased number of work
ers in the Bridgeport area would
soon necessitate huge plant cafe
terias to be erected, perhaps, with
the help of federal funds.

The 700 members of the
Amalgamated Association of
Street, Electric Railway and
Motor Coach Employees work
ing out of the Bridgeport,
Waterbury, New Britain, Nor
walk, Derby and Westport
barns of the Connecticut Rail-
way & Light Company, have
demonstrated their discipline
and cooperation with the war
effort by signing, in effect, a
union shop agreement with
the Company after more than
four months of negotiation.
With all but a handful of the
700 men involved, good standing
members of the Union, all impair
tial observers agree that the Union
had the strength and the company
the finances for the men Ito have
written their own agreement" With
the full realization that the use of
the suspension of work vote taken
i'm April would have affected war
production to a serious degree in
six cities, the State C.R.&L. Board
and the membership followed the
example of their brothers working
for the Connecticut Company by
patiently utilizing all channels for
the successful completion of the
negotiations and at the same time
avoiding all provocation. In doing
this they set an example the
C.R.&L. Company might well fol-
low.
The new agreement, like the Con-
necticut Company pact, calls for an &c
hourly wage increase, the second such
raise in two years; time-and-a-half
for the seventh day, and guarantee
of IS hours work a week to extras.
On the issue of the closed shop, the
Union again exhibited its patience and
fairness and desire to avoid a stop
page. Walter Carr, vice-president and
general manager, who represented the
C.R.&L., wouldn't put the closed shop
or Union shop in black and white, but
agreed verbally to back the Unions
insistence that the few employees who
are still not members of the Union,
must take out their cards to remain
on the job.
CONGRATULATIONS
Members of the C.R.&L. State
Board, who are being given credit
for having done a good job in
tight situation are Stanley Mayhem,
