The Union bargaining procedure,
Shop Committee, and Rate Com
mittee, have effectively carried
forward a program of wage ad-
justments and better working con-
ditions throughout the past year.
The fact that very few workers
are still not members, is definite
evidence of service rendered by
the organization.
Local 806 at dinner Fare has
not only committed itself to an
about increased production pro-
gram for the defense of America,
but has effectively given leader
ship to the workers, and co-opera-
ton to Management in putting
policy into actual practice.
The effort of every Union mem
Der is now directed to one
supreme job; the battle for pro-
duction; and the Dinner Fare
members have given a Shining
example" not only to the organic
ed workers in Dayton, but to
those workers in organized plants.
The Dinner Fare members of
Local 300 have demonstrated that
Unions provide the basis for
Unity, and Unity will defend
America against any enemy.

: National Foundry
STRADLEBUGS @ T

There are still a few STRAD-
DLEBUGS at the NATIONAL
FOUNDRY. For almost a year
they have taken everything and
given nothing not even their
support to their fellow workers.
IF they continue to be of no value
there is no reason why they con-
tinue to be around. ANY one who
will not support his fellow work.
er deserves no support from his
fellow workers. His fellow work.
ers would be better off without
him around.

Dinner Begins
Pact Talks

A formal request has been made
to Management to open nego-
tiations for renewal of the present
Agreement with basic changes
recommended by the Union. Con-
tract changes have been compiled
by the Shop Steward Council on
the basis of past practices and in
efficiences in the present Agree
ment.

10000 Forward

The Dinner Fare workers., with
few exceptions, are 1000 behind
their Union and the Union has
committed itself 1000 to the de-
tense of America. The Member
ship will insist and further re-
commend to Management that the
position of UE Local 806 at Dinner
Fare deserves the active support
and participation of every en-
ployee now working in the plant
and those who will be employed,
to meet the increased demands for
war production.
Smooth operation of the bar
gaining procedure, the adjustment
of individual and group grievances
under the leadership of the officers
of Dinner Fare Unit, will guar
antee a free and ever increasing
flow of war material into the
hands of our armed forces.

the contents plainly on the outside.
The Army and Navy Information
Bureau asked me particularly to
urge the families and friends of men
overseas to write them often and
keep on writing" and not to be dis
couraged if a letter written last
May arrives at the same time as one
written in August. The post Office
is moving things through as expedi-
tiously as possible - but this is War
and delays are unavoidable.
Of course, there are certain
''don't t." a. sCeu as s'do's, about
claat to ,rrite or send. Ansong
the ''don' ts'' to a girl sCritins 10 a
man, the principal one is: DONE
.Ur;te anything that could en-
barvass you soere it left lying
around for everyone to read.
Another don't" is: Don't write
any home news that will cause need
less distress or worry. Don't say:
"Your mother is better. but she
looks very frail," or: Il hear your
fathers business is about closed
down" Bad news should come only
from one who can give it authorita-
lively and in full detail. Nothing is
more cruel than bad news that does
not tell what is wrong.
One last word - although the
letter written to the one who is
dearest to you is quite outside of the
province of this article - it can do
no harm to remind you not to sob
over him, nor to emphasize the anxi-
ETY. with which you are praying that
he will come through safely" Pray
in your own heart, by all means. But
don't pray out loud to him. Above
all. don't say: "If you ever come
back -. Tell him how much you
love and think of him, not how mis-
cradle you are without him. Don't
write how brave you are, either.

PAVING long done my best to
discourage young girls from
d = writing too many letters to
their boy friends, / must now 60 50
far as to urge them not only to write
to them while the boys are in train
ing camp. but to make it point to
send ''V. Mail" letters as often
as possible to those overseas.
But before taking up overseas
mail in detail, let me say a few words
about mail to camps or posts over
here. The easiest end most welcome
letter to send to John Neighbor is
one supplemented with items clipped
from his favogite home newspaper.
AS for gifts, nothing takes the
place of a carton of cigarettes or a
can of tobacco. A nice thing to send
a man in training camp - and per
haps even overseas - is Round
Robin box from a dozen or so neigh
bors. each enclosing few chocolate
bars, packages of chewing gum, rolls
of lozenges, or fruit balls; and each
signing his name.
An enclosure in your letter, of
course, can only be sent in reg
uiar mail, and this cannot go as
fost as "F. - Mail" Any letter
Of importance is ysOsU sent BY this
ysescest, quickest method.
