This officer stressed that Pat
tons action in assembling and ad-

what Eisenhower had demanded.
Eisenhower, commenting on the
incident, described Patton's con-

in Patton as general and said
that, like many other officers in

Patton is extremely profane in

deeply religious. He has called on

the Allies are fighting on the side

JAW Constitution that reminds of the law,
and like the law, ignorance is no excuse. For an
example of this, try running a red light when
there is scout crew around When you say
Good morning Judge" the day after your arrest,
/ would advise you not to tell the Judge you didn't
know there was an ordinance against crashing red

SKIMMING THE SURFACE
In this Introductory article, expect to merely
skim the surface and try and tell you few rea-
sons why you members of the UAW-CIO should
make it point to know something about the con-
sttution which GOVERNS you and your union.
If any of you belong to fraternal organza-
tion, and l know a lot of you do you make it
point to know something of the rules and rituals
of your particular organization And the way
you learn is by listening, watching and reading,
a combination of all three.
SO it is with your constitution l would not be
foolish enough to believe that just because rec
commended it, that you would Immediately rush TO
get copy of the UAW-CIO Constitution and be-
gin to feverishly read it. | think you should not
push yourself too hard, but nevertheless / still
think that it is the duty of every member of the
UAW to know what their constitution is all about.
| would suggest that you read these articles,
which promise to make as interesting as know
how and then as various important parts of the
constitution dealt with, consult your constitu-
tion for reference.
In the ensuing articles, | will not follow the
order of the constitution but will take the various
sections as they apply in Importance to the rank
and file.
Since the membership of the individual is thsr
most important thing he or she possesses, this
the most important thing for the member. shaN
therefore begin next weeks article on membership
and go into some of the various factors which
effect the standing of the member in the union.
Ours is democratic organization. not merely
in name, but in practice. 1t is only by guarding
our democratic rights and safeguarding them by
knowledge of our constitutional rights that We can
preserve our democratic ideals and make progress
in union.
Toledo union journal. [volume] (Toledo, Ohio) 1942-current, 1943-12-03

A WEAPON
A good labor paper is a powerful weapon
against the forces which have not yet learned TO
know and respect labor. These the same forces
which, while they have respect for the numerical
strength of the unions, have little respect for
the mass intelligence of the workers
The labor press has done more in the past few
years to illustrate that the workers are not just
mob of unintelligent people led by ambitious and
greedy leaders, than any other medium. 1t has
presented labors side in an effective and logical
manner, and in many cities, convinced the public
at-large that labor is not just stupid giant
without direction.
JAW PAPER
l believe the Toledo UNION JOURNAL has
done its job in an effective way here in Toledo.
Comments which have come to me from all sections
of the country, from people in every walk of life,
convince me that Local IL has one of the best
papers of its type in the country, and l am sure
that the people of Toledo who read the paper
100000, agree that it is well worth reading for
information facts and matters of general interest,
not only to the workers, but to the public.
have every hope that the TOLEDO UNION
JOURNAL will continue to grow and prosper, not
only economically but, more Importantly as a force
in this community and nation.
A HOPE
AS labor grows, it is not impossible that it may
develop its own daily press, not on large scale,
but in certain important industrial centers where
the volume of workers would be large enough and
sufficiently loyal to support such daily press
But before labor develop an important and
strong daily press, it must containue to improve
the papers which it now has. This is task which
| believe must be done now-to give labor papers
better journalism, to improve the quality of it's
writing, to educate it's people to know their eco
nomic and political interests, to lead the fight
against labor'S enemies and detractors and n1anv
other activities in public relations which properly
belong to the labor papers of the country.
These are the aims which Local IL has set for
the TOLEDO UNION JOURNAL, aims which
hope will be realized more and more as the paper
grows older.
