 As contributors to the Sub are not on salary, my position is sim ply that of someone who writes letter to the paper, and as such l write of things as find them and that's that. All that the cutie-pies at the Capitol Cleaners have to do to make liar out of me is to start treating each and every customer, even the one who don't look very important and present problems to harassed clerks, with the kind of tact and politeness that suggest that they're aware of the possibi!- ity that some of us might be around when all this is over. They are far from the only place of busi- ness following this new "to-hell- With-the-custome can get a million of lem" policy, to be sure. But I happened to notice the lnci- dent referred to, and it illustrated my point pretty well. MT.

Reminder

We wish to remind the men,
bership of all CIO local unions,
that the proper channels to take
up their problems of rationing,
manpower, and other government
al agencies, is through their
union. There are no agencies in
this area that do not have union
representation, and many hours
can be cut from the processes that
must be taken by an individual
in his dealings with these agencies,
simply by using the representa-
ton we have.
Let every member of every
local union realize that the coun-
Gil, as the only local representa-
tive body of CLIO, is in a position
to render these services, and that
in so doing make stronger the
position Of the organization for
further needs. Particularly in the
Office of Price Administration, it
is recognized all over the country,
the value of the services that are
being rendered by organized labor.
Most of the governmental agen-
cies are operated with the aid of
voluntary workers, with only a
small part of the entire staff being
on a salary basis. Your council
has found all of the heads of these
agencies appreciative of the help
that we have given, and always
ready to help the members of our
organization with their problems.
Therefore, we are advising our
membership to talk over their
problems with their union Off
Gals, who will in turn contact
this council for assistance In solv-
ing them.

Compensation
Payments Drop

COLUMBUS, O.-Continuing a
record breaking decline, payments
of unemployment compensation in
Ohio to $54,416 during October,
lowest point since the state started
paying such benefits in 1889.
A further decrease also appears
likely during November. Admins
traitor Hugh S. Jenkins said in his
report to Gov. John W. Bricker.
"A decline of both new and
continued claims for compensa-
ton, which accompanied the rec
ord drop in benefits during Oc-
tober, ordinarily would be re-
Elected in a lower benefit total
the following month"
New claims declined 4 per cent
during October to a total of only
1867, while compensate weeks of
unemployment wv e e.ks during
which the claimants are entitled
to benefits) dropped Is per cent
to 1906 for the month.
The record low in benefit pay
ments during October was approx
imately 88 per cent under the
same month a year ago, when
benefits totaled $472,9O5, Admin
istrator Jenkins said. Compared
with September, 1913, the last
previous all-time low, benefit
payments during October were
more than 20 per cent lower.
Every city in the state showed
a drop in compensate unem-
ployment during October as COM
pared with a year ago, with the
decreases ranging up to 100 per
cent in a few cases and more than
20 per cent in a majority of the
localities.
Ohio's benefit payments for I'M
employment have now declined to
only Is per cent of the total
amount paid in such benefits in
the entire United States, the ad-
ministrator said. A recent COM
p1eted study of benefit payments
in Ohio as compared with the en-
tire country showed that whereas
Ohio's payments amounted to At
per cent of the national total
during the normal" year, 1910,
they had dropped to the 10 per
cent figure during the first nine
months of this year.

Shop News

According to the provisions of
the new contract, which the shop
committee hopes will take affect
within the next sixty days, regard
less of the classification or pres
ent wage rates established, all
women workers will receive the
same amount of wages for various
types of work as if a man were
on the job. Considering the fact
that approximately seventy per
cent of the employees at Stand
ard Aircraft are women, this will
mean a considerable increase to a
large number Of workers.
More and more as the shortage
of manpower increases, the per-
centage of women employees in
industrial plants is becoming
larger. Those new women en-
ployees are realizing hat the pro-
lection Of wage standards and
working conditions are entirely de-
pendent upon the support of a
strong organization, and as a nat
ural consequence, the membership
of the local union is ever increas-
ing.

RESOLUTION

RESOLVED, That the action of
the United States Employment
Service, (USES) in denying state
ments of availability and inter
area clearances to wives, mothers
and daughters of members of the
armed services who desire to fol-
low their relatives in service
where they are stationed and take
up residential employment there,
in unfair and unjust, and con-
flicts with the Interpretation Of
the Amended Dayton Area Sta
bilization Plan.
BE IT FURTHER RESOLVED,
That the action of the USES is
arbitrary, due to the fact that the
Dayton Area Sterilization Plan
was not designed to conflict with
the rights of American citizens,
and IS a direct violation of the
"Bill of Rights and the Constitu-
ton of the United States of Amer
lea.
THEREFORE, We, the delegates
of the Montgomery County In
dustrial Union Council, do pro-
test the actions of the USES in
denying releases to the afore-
mentioned, and ask the War
Manpower Commission to take
the proper steps to rectify this
situation.
