with state and annual statement
of union finances.
Although no such bills have been
introduced in the New York lesis-
lature as yet, AFL and CIO unions
of the capital district formed a
joint conference at Schenectady to
prepare for a fight against any
attempt TO hit the Texas trail.

Setting the reactionary pace is
Texas. Not only has the worst of
the bills been introduced there,
but one of Texas U. S. senator's,
w. Lee pass the biscuits, Pappy)
O'Daniel, is on a speaking tour of
other state assemblies urging them
to adopt similar bills.
The Texas bill also is the first
to get beyond the legislative hop
per. The state affairs committee
voted II to s to report favorably
on the Manford bill, which would
make unions register with the sec
retary of state, limit initiation
fees, dues, special assessments, and
forbid contributions to political
campaigns.
Other bills pending in Texas
would require that 75% of a
unions income remain in the state
and would outlaw closed shops.
Texas newspapers leave no doubt
that reactionaries there hope to
be the spearhead of national
movement to destroy unions. Ray
mond Brooks, political writer in
the Austin American Statesman, is
,.,..A. nz,.I;l nLn,,E -.
Labor Is Resisting
The wave of reaction is bringing
united labor resistance in Texas,
Ohio and California. Rocky L.
Davis, legislative representative of
the Texas CIO, and Harry w.
Acreman, executive secretary Of
the Texas Federation of Labor, is
sued a joint statement that the
Manford bill would practically de-
stroy organized labor in the state. "
In California, a united commit
tee of AFL, CIO and railroad
unions was formed to fight reac-
tionary legislation, and in Ohio,
the CIO has invited the AFL and
railroad brotherhoods to joint leg
islative conference.
The bills in Ohio, California,
Kansas and Pennsylvania follow
much the same patterns as the
Texas law. Here they are, in
brief:
Anti-Labor Line Up
CALIFORNIA: Would require
unions of 25 or more members to
incorporate and deposit SO bond
with the secretary of state for
each member, would outlaw closed
shop, forbid strikes and secondary
pickets.
IOWA: Would outlaw picketing
and forbid workers to see redress
of grievances except through court
action.
KANSAS: Would forbid "intim-
idation of employers" use Of union
funds in political campaigns, pick
citing by so-called strangers and
outlaw closed shop.
OHIO: Would establish commits
sion TO guarantee right of worker
to refrain from joining labor or
ganizations," regulate union fees,
dues and assessments, supervise
all union elections, require regis
stration of unions and their Off
GERS and constitutions. Closed shop
would be prohibited except where
voted for by AS Of employees in
plant.
PENNSYLVANIA: Would re-

Unions Unite
TO Answer
PegIer
DenOunce COlumnist,
Accuse Him OF
Pleasing Goebbels
By Federated Press

SAN FRANCISCO - (FP) -
Westbrook Pegler's attempt to
drive a wedge into the ranks of
American seamen has been met
with a united blast from west
coast AFL, CIO and Independent
marine unions.
Joining together in an unprece-
dented unity move, the unions sent
letter to the Scrips-Howard col
umnist denouncing column which
appeared in the San Francisco
News Jan. 29 reporting friction
between the enlisted Navy gun
crews and the civilian merchant
sailors because of alleged striking
pay differences.
Nazi Pattern
"There is a quality and pattern
to that particular column" the
letter said, (which should be
highly pleasing to Dr.. Goebbels
and the men in his camp. In fact,
it has all the earmarks of having
been conceived at such a source.
after all, who but some Nazi
or Fascist propagandist would be
interested in stirring up disunity
among the men who go to sea as
trade and the Navy Armed
Guard assigned to these same ships
carrying cargo to our far flung
United Nations fronts?
Apology Asked For
"In the interests Of public in
formation, your profession, our
profession and the debt owed our
merchant dead, we feel that this
letter and your apology should be
afforded the same position and
circulation ordinarily given your
column"
The letter was signed by Capt.
C. F. May, president Of Local 80,
Natl. Organization of Masters
Mates & Pilots (AFL); Sec. r.
Meriwether, Local 81, Marine
Engineers Beneficial Assn. (CIO);
Sec.-Treas. Harry Lundeberg of
the Sailors Union of the Pacific
(AFL); Gene Burke, Marine Cooks
& Stewards Assn. (CIO); George
F. B. King, American Communica-
tions Assn. (CIO); Ralph ID.
Rogers Natl, Maritime Union

iated).

tries to laugh it off with "a phony
haw-haw."
Missler has said that he would
like to have space in the Toledo
Union Journal to make answer to
the charges that have been brought
against him by plant workers, and
editors of the Journal have indi-
Gated their willingness to permit
him the space up to $50 words.
When told of Missler's challenge,
the editor of the Journal asked,
"Can Joe write too?"
c. E. Swartzbaugh also has indi-
Gated he would like to use the pages
of the Journal, which he calls
"cheap literature; but since he is
not a subscriber to the Journal
like Missler is, he was denied the
request by Journal editors.
MUST GIVE EXAMPLE
Don Kuhnle, member of the
Swartzbaugh executive committee,
waxed sarcastic when discussing
conditions around the plant. Said
he, at looks to me like C. <. is
trying to Crawford the presi-
dent of the National Association
of Manufacturers. Maybe he thinks
he has to give an example to the
other local industrialists, most of
whom are angels when compared
with this small-time member of the
local Chamber of Commerce. He
may be president; but he is just a
small-time operator when compared
with other bigger men in the
Chamber from whom he probably
takes orders"
REALLY GETTING HOT
Swartzbaugh is reported as say
ing that any of his employees who
give him free publicity will be
placed on the company's private
payroll. If this is true, according
to Eimore Tressler, another men,
Der of the executive committee, the
Swartzbaugh payroll sis due for a
big increase"
Tressler went on criticizing the
company's war effort. Said Tress-
Ter, "This guy Swartzbaugh likes
to wave the flag and proclaim his
great patriotism, but if the war
effort depended on Swartzbaugh,
the front lines would be on the
Maumee River instead of in Africa
and the South Pacific"
Committee members have made
a solemn promise to win the
Swartzbaugh argument no matter
what comes, and say that Swartz-
baugh is beginning to whistle in
a graveyard"
