Hearing
Recessed
NRLB Case
To Resume
March %

Hearing of charges of unfair la
Dor practices filed with the Ma
tional Labor Relations Board
against the Spicer Mfg. Co. which
began in Municipal Court March 10
were recessed on March 16 due to
a death in the family of Arnold
Bunge, Spicer attorney, who re-
quested the deferment.
Union charges against the Spicer
Co. grew out of company demands
that union employees in departments
Sc, 81, 50 and 80 relinquish their
union affiliation which the COM
pany contended was incompatible
with the nature of the work being
done by the employees of these de-
partments.
The case is being heard by A.
Bruce Hunt, NLRB trial examiner
with attorney Max Eastman as
prosecutor. Hearings will resume
March % upon the return of Mr..
Bunge.
Spicer Unit is affiliated with Lo-
cal II, UAW-CIO.

Labor Protests Keep Fish
Out Of Celebration

BOSTON 49, Rep. Hamilton Fish
(R., N. " will be conspicuously
absent from the speakers platform
when this city holds its Evacuation
Day celebration March II.
Originally scheduled as the main
speaker, Fish withdrew after pro-
tests from labor and civic organi-
cations began pouring in. The for
mer isolationist had indicated that
he would attack Russia at the
meeting and declared that if the
people Of Boston did not want to
hear that kind Of speech he would
not come at all.
Typical reaction was this COM
ment by city CIO leaders: at
would be disgrace to Boston and
a reflection on her citizens for this
defeatist labor batter and sniper
at our commander-in-chief to be
at the meeting"

Membership Reaches New High
UAW-CIO membership has con-
tinued to grow since the last cleo
ton and according to Clarence Bor-
geld now is such that 81 think we
will take this next election by
substantial majority Even those
who voted for the A. F. of L. in
the last election are beginning to
wonder if the campaign Of fear
and the gifts are not both just
tricks to hold shop that has been
40 years under domination of the
older organization"
UAW-CIO members at the Kent
Owens plant are getting chuckles
out of the attempt the AFL made
to remove Chairman Young from
days and put him on nights,
move that failed, according to Bor-
geld, because the AFL simply does
not have the power to get the
management to do what it wants it
to, but the CIO has the ability to
prevent its members from being
showed around.
NLRB probably will order the
new election held next week, and
the event is being looked forward
to with anticipation by the JAW,
which feels that the majority of the
kent-Owens workers want a demo-
cratic and clean organization which
doesn't have to bribe workers into
seeing the truth of its claims.

Union Refuses

Say Materials
Could Be Used
To Bolster NaZis

NEW YORK - The Natl. Mari
time Union (CIO) served notice on
the State Dept, March II that it
will mot be a party to carrying
vital materials to Franco Spain
which can and will be utilized to
bolster the Nazi war machine"
A resolution adopted by the
Port of New York membership de-
clared that NMU members would
cease being the transmission belt
by which American supplies are
shipped to our enemies" A major
ity of the 3,617 merchant seamen
killed in action during this war
were NMU members.
Condemning the "appeasement
policy of the State Dept. as in
imical to the best interests Of the
American people, "the resolution
declared that some sections Of the
State Dept. have been flirting with
notorious fascists and seem intent
upon losing the peace while thou
sands of seamen and soldiers are
dying to win the war against
fascism."
"It is we'll known" the state
ment continued, chat Franco
Spain is stooging for Nazi Ger
many and has troops fighting our
most effective ally, the Soviet
Union, probably with materials we
are furnishing. We feel that divert
ing valuable ships for Franco
Spain is the same as diverting
them for Hitler Germany.

Anfi-Lubor
Bill Explained
BY EARL ORDWAY
Vice. President Ohio CIo Council

Nlce-PresluenC OnlO ClO OOuncll
Now for the most vicious Labor
Bill yet introduced before the
House, H. B. 1913.
1t is an enormous document of
some % sections IT pages long,
which contains everything that
would harm or destroy a Labor
Union and their Union officers,
everything that the worst Labor
hater in the country could think Of
in his most vicious moments.
H. B. 1913 is proof that some
employers would rather fight a
war against Labor Unions than
against Hitler.
This bill is written with the
idea that the working people are
the ones who are guilty of unfair
labor practices instead of en-
ployers.
Provisions of Bill
1t provides that a three man
commission be appointed by the
Governor one of whom must be a
lawyer. This committee would ex-
ercise extended powers against
working people; But which could
do nothing with respect to en-
ployers.
This committee would register
and regulate Labor Unions, settle
disputes, appoint arbitrators, de-
termine the amount of Union dues
and initiation fees, decide who
could and who could not be Union
officers, prohibit strikes and pick
eting, forbid the settlement of in
dividual grievances, make illegal
any act to boycott unfair employ
ers, and permit any worker, even
those who are not members, to
have full access to all the records
and documents of Union.
House Bill 1913 would set up a
dictatorship over Labor Unions,
and over Non Union workers as
well. All Labor must protest both
of these bills to their Representa-
tives and Senator'S.

that the workers who are produc-
ing for the war effort should have
a spokesman to tell of the con-
structive part Labor is playing in
the war.
Ruml Heckled By Opponents
He vigorously objected to the
disunity which the plane manu-
facturer's attacks on Labor has
brought about. Huml was inter-
rupted again and again by Repu-
blican members, as he spoke in de-
fense of Labor Unions.
Huml's views were supported by
Representative Michael O'Brien
CD also Of Cleveland who de-
clared Rickenbacker would be more
valuable in training young flyers
than travelling over the country
visiting state capitols making po-
litical speeches written by someone
else with sinister motives"
Other Representatives who sup
ported Huml's viewpoint were
Howard Metzenbaum CD and Jo-
seph w. Kovach Cd, both of
Cuyahoga County; George C. Bra
den, Jr. (R), and Howard Williams
(R) of Trumbull County.
Wants Labor Invited
Following the adoption of the in
vitation resolution, Huml intro
duced separate resolution invit-
ing Whitney to appear and tell of
Labor's part in the war, and COM
mending Ohio's workers for their
efforts. 1t was referred to the re-
ference committee of the House
where it is still reposing.
The invitation to Rickenbackep
stipulated that he could accept at
his own convenience. The resolu-
tion originated in the Senate by
Senator Daniels (R) cigar manu-
facturer of Highland County. 1t
passed the Senate unanimously and
then was referred to the House.

It was the product of the Ma
tional Resources Planning Board,
which has been under attack
along with the most vital Of the
war agencies-from the congress
sional defeatists and anti-New
Dealers. A house appropriations
committee refused to allow it any
thing in deficiency appropriation
In his message submitting the
boards recommendations for
post-war plan and program, the
President said:
"We can all agree on our OBJ
iective and in our common deter
mination that work, fair pay and
social security after the war is
won must be firmly established
for the people of the United States
We need to look forward to
the accomplishment of these OBJ
jectives-world peace, democratic
society and dynamic economy e"
Underwrite Program
The board outlined policy
which would underwrite full en-
ployment for the employables and
guarantee job for every man re-
leased from the armed forces and
war industries at the end of the
war, with fair pay and working
conditions. 1t also would guarantee
and when necessary underwrite
equal access to security, to educa-
ton, to health and nutrition and
to wholesome housing for all.
The board declares "our peace
aims are war weapons which in
the end may determine the out
come of the military struggle" by
maintaining "the fighting spirit of
our armed forces and the ardor of
our industrial workers"
It's general policy looks to "the
fullest possible development Of the
human personality in relation to
the common good" fullest develop
ment of the productive potential Of
our resources" and the outlawing
of violence and Imperialism, "old
or new fashioned"
What some newspapers ominous-
ly termed extension Of govern
ment partnership in some indus
tries" Is in fact an exhaustive plan
to extend help to private enter
prise after the war, to encourage
it's healthy and aggressive devel-
opment" and to prevent the abuse
of economic power, or monopolistic
privilege" and TO eliminate avoid
able uncertainties and needless
burdens in the laws affecting en-
terprise."

Says Ambassador Spoke
In Personal Capacity

WASHINGTON, March 12-Act-
ing Secretary of State Sumner
Welles March IL said that a report
from Admiral William H. Standley
made it clear that he realized that
when he spoke to the press in Mos
COW March 8 he was doing so in
his personal capacity and not for
this government. Standley said he
did not think the Russian people
were being told the complete story
on American aid to Russia.
He would not say that Standley
might not be recalled as ambassa-
dor to Russia. When asked if it
could be assumed that no such
drastic action was being consid-
cred, he said he had nothing fur
ther to say for the moment.
Less than "a hours after the
house had overwhelmingly voted
for a years extension of he lease
lend act (407 to g. and defeated
the anti-administration Vorhys
amendment by 178 to lie, it
reached the senate March II. So
did report by Lease-Lend Admin
istrator Edward R. Stettinius, Jr.,
saying aid to our allies now totals
1882, 100000.
Praise Lend-Lease
He said that 299o of the value
of goods exported in the second
year was for Russia. While it had
been a factor, said Stettinius in the
report, Russia "has carried on its
magnificent struggle against the
Nazis principally with equipment
produced in Russian factories"
Stettinius, Vice President Henry
Wallace, Maxim Litvinoff, the So
Wet ambassador, Lord Halifax, the
British ambassador, and T. V.
Soong, Chinese minister of foreign
affairs, praised lease-lend at a
luncheon in the Statler Hotel the
same day at which dehydrated
foods shipped under lease-lend were
featured.
Only reference to the Standley
affair which has rocked the capital
was indirect. Litvinoff said that
while "much the largest part of
