The Forest Where

Not only is a metallic forest un-
usual enough in itself, but this
one has the distinction OF being
patriotic as well as unique. for
the whole thing is destined for
the metal scrap pile at the con-
clusion of the picture.
1t is made up entirely of used
auto parts, springs, and universal
joints, and it was constructed for
a dramatic scene in Charles
Boyer's production of For All
We Know"
This synthetic woodland oc-
cupies a huge sound stage and
contains 81 trees OF different
sizes which will appear prom
inently in the close-ups. So aC-
curately does this metallic forest
resemble the real thing that even
close inspection does not dispel
the illusion.
Steel is used for the tree trunks
and branches. which are then

Auto Dealers Study Plan
For Postwar Highways

A vast network of postwar express
highways throughout the country is
now being studied. according to a
statement made public yesterday by
the National Automobile Dealers
Association.
Cooperating with the organiza-
ton Is the American Association Of
State Highway Officials, which in
cludes highway departments of all
the States and the Federal Public
Roads Administration.
This Highway Officials Associa-
ton is sponsoring the Mcclellan
Robinson bill, now before Congress.
which calls for expenditure of
81 1,000, ,0O0, 900 year for highways for
at least three years. This proposed
legislation would supplement the
Federal Aid Act of 1916. and large
additional sums would be contrib
uted by the various States.
Brady Gentry, president of the as
sociation, said that studies by his
organization include a proposal that
the densely populated Atlantic sea-
board area be served by a giant
roadway running between Washing
ton and Boston. He said there also
is under discussion a plan to extend
the Pennsylvania turnpike from
Phili tlphia to Chicago by way of
eitkkSrgh. Cleveland and Detroit.

Civic Groups Told to Spend
More Time Discussing Issues
BY CAMBRIDGE CRIST.

Gordon NJ Atherholt, first vice
president Of the Macarthur Boule-
| ward Citizens Association, has a
simple formula for civic groups
forget the mania" for resolutions.
Mr.. Atherholt suggested that in
stead of being so interested in reso-
lutions it would be better to bring
about more deliberation and adopt
rules that would permit more dis
cussion of problems"
He cited case in the Federation
of Citizens Associa tions in which
the chairman of committee read
report for about IS minutes and
the opposition speaker had five min
utes and an additional five min
utes with unanimous consent. Not
enough time was devoted to dis
cussing and studying various aspects
of the report, he said.
Mr.. Atherholt said he believed
one of the main tasks before his
association was that of building up
the membership. He said he thought
one way of helping attendance was

sections of the area interested in
the association and in bringing in
new members.
The most serious community prob
lem, Mr.. Atherholt declared. is that
of transportation to various parts
of the Macarthur boulevard area.
The first transportation need, he
believes, is to get the Nebraska
avenue-Loughboro road bus route,
plans for which were Cancelled by
the Public Utilities Commission at
the request of the Office Of Defense
Transportation.
The second need, he continued, is
to reroute the Massachusetts avenue
bus line to take in the section west
of Foxhall road and south of Lough-
boro road. Residents in that sec
ton, he claimed, have to walk from
3. to l y miles to get transportation
The third step-and he admitted he
did not think this too vital-was
restoration of bus service on Mac
Arthur boulevard beyond Chain
Bridge road. The affected neigh
borhood, he pointed out, already is

served by the Cabin John streetcar
line.
Mr.. Atherholt succeeded Walter
Cunyas as deputy warden of
Macarthur boulevard area, having
served previously as assistant
deputy. Several months ago Mr..
Atherholt led the fight against the
report of the Police and Fire Pro-
lection Committee of the fedora
ton, in which many features of
the Districts civilian defense or
ganization was criticized. He said
he took exception to the report not
because he felt the civilian defense
setup was perfect here, but because
he thought many of the grounds
of criticism poorly taken and trivial" I"
In regard to the controversy over
the value of civilian mobilization,
now known as the Civilian War
Services, Mr.. Atherholt said he had
found in his community that people
resent their doorbells being rung
by volunteers and that it had
thrown bad light on the pro-
tective services"

Is His Foce Red!

Editor Krupp, publisher of the small
town paper, the Port Clinton Herald, went
out on a limb for the Standard Products
Co. of Port Clinton.
Editor Krupp, after years of expert
ence and many victories in the field OF
moulding public opinion, thought himself
unbeatable.
Editor Krupp knows that he Overesti-
mated the power of the press, and under
estimated the intelligence, common sense
and judgment of his readers.
And is Editor Krupp's face red!
Editor Krupp thought he was first
class labor batter. He dealt his vicious
belowthe-belt wallops upon the United
Auto Workers whom he obviously disllkes
most cordially, and then, he sat back wait
ing for his intended victim to fall prone
at his feet.
Imagine how surprised Editor krupp
must be- Imagine what he is now thinking
as he realizes that he was striking the
very people who support his newspaper
and and give ii the circulation upon which
he bases his advertising rates, without
which Editor krupp could not exist.
Think how hard Editor Krupp is going
to work now to get himself back in the
good graces of the people of Port Clinton,
whose confidence in the paper has been
destroyed, not by the CIO, whom Mr..
Krupp tried to destroy, but by himself.
Poor Mr.. Krupp. How he must suffer
from the pangs of his own errors, and how
he must be looking forward to the day
when the employees of the Matthews Co.
cast their vote for the United Automobile
Workers and confirm the vote of no conf
dence in Editor krupp which was admin
istered by the employees of the Standard
Products Co.
The whole thing might be summarized
by paraphrasing the words of the saying,
I'D rather be right than be president to,
I'D rather be right than be editor of the
Port Clinton Herald"
Toledo union journal. [volume] (Toledo, Ohio) 1942-current, 1943-04-02

In its organized drive on labor, using
absenteesm as the basis for its attack,
the National Association of Manufactur-
ers and other anti-abOr groups seem to
have overlooked an important type of alb
senteeism-that of the absentee indus
trialist.
We know of many cases here in Toledo
of industralists who are still gallivanting
around the country utterly Indifferent to
the war, except as it affects their profits.
They go West and South to escape the cold
of the northern winters, while they laze
in the sun and chase the little white gotta
perCha pill around glOrified COW pasture,
and then 90 north in the summer to escape
the heat and humidity, and chase other
little white balls from green to green.
This is not sour grapes, not by long
shot; but when these men go away, they
leave their glorified office boys, called
executives in charge, with so little au-
thOrity that every time problem of labor
relations arises, they must be consulted by
wire or long distance telephone to weigh
the merits of the cases and make iudg-
ment.
Absentee bosses are extremely jealous
Of their perOgatives. Almost invariably,
they require their subOrdinates to consult
them on even minor Details and since
they are far from the scene of the prob
lens, they cannot appreciate situations
which arise, and therefore give detached
just.
While Congress is about it, it might as
well go the whole hog and investigate abb
senteeism on the part of big industrialsts,
who certainly are contributing nothing to
the war effort, except lot of cold -blooded
decisions which cannot help but affect the
workers morale and iniure the war effort.

nasty approach and a facile
mind to turn every point pos
sible to his own use. Even
when arguing about such an

obnoxious bill as House Bill 1913, Snow can wax
eloquent.
SMALL BUSINESS BILL
Mr.. Snow represents the group which calls it.
self The Small Businessmen, an organization
which copies after the National Association of
Manufacturers This group is particularly inter-
ested in placing fetters upon organized labor be-
cause it fances that it will gain from the trans
action.
PROVISION. OF H. B. 1913
Due to the extreme length of H. B. 1913, it is
impossible to give all its features in detail How
ever, | will summarize the worst features of the
bill which would regulate" labor in Ohio, the
same it would in Kansas. Colorado and Texas
where similar bills have already been passed by
reactionary legislatures
First of ALL the main purpose of the bill is to
convey the idea that it is the workers rather than
employers who are guilty of unfair labor prac-
tees Based on this assumption the bill would
provide a three commission to be appointed
BY THE GOVERNOR, one of whom must be an
attorney, to exercise control over working people,
but with no control whatever over employers.
Duties of the commission according to the terms
of the BILL would consist in regulating" labor
unions, "settle" disputes, appoint arbitrators de-
termine the amount of Union imitation fees and
dues, decide who could could not be Union Off
GERS prohibit strikes and picketing, forbid settezs
ment of individual grievances, make boycotts
unfair employers illegal and open Union recor
and documents for full public inspection.
Obviously, this bill WOULD CREATE A DC
TATORSHIP OF THE STATE OVER LABOR
UNIONS
PROTEST BILLS
Brother Thomas Burke and myself, along with
Ted Silvey and other labor representatives went
to Columbus to protest this bill. want to urge
each and every member of Local IL to do likewise
by mail. Address your letter to the names given in
another section of this issue of the Union Journal
and tell your representatives that this bill would
destroy labor Unions.
sincerely hope each member of Local IL, for
his own protection will make it point to send
their protest in to Columbus, and hope your ef-
forts will aid in preventing this reactionary
bill from becoming law which would ruin labor
Unions and set up dictatorship over us.

public press bitterly against him. That's one
strong point in his favor, at least.
He has helped his mine workers, the men in
America who most needed help Undernourished,
ill-clothed, uneducated people, thousands of fam-
lies of them, have obtained a small portion of
what should rightfuly be theirs. Mr.. Lewis is en-
titled to small share of the credit for having
fought against terrific odds, emerging triumphant
upon almost every occasion.
LEWIS NO ANGEL
John L. Lewis has his bad points His organ-
cation is not the most democratic union in the
country His leaders not exactly squeamish in
their methods. He insists having his own way
or he just won't play" And, worst of all, he
supported Wendell Willkie because he was peeved
at Roosevelt
But make mistake about it, John L. Lewis
is hundred per cent correct in his battle with
the WLB. |, for one, ardently hope that the min.
ers get everything that's coming to them, and no
group of ndustrialists occupies lower spot in my
estimation than the mine operators.
LEWIS TELLS SENATORS
Initiate the miners bellies" Lewis told the
Truman Committee of the U. S. Senate. Yes and
Lewis is right again, and the Truman Committee
is wrong.
When Lewis quoted the increase in the cost Of
porterhouse steak which incidentally was carried
in the stores for the families of the superntend-
ents, he was told that "a lot of us can't afford
porterhouse steaks"
SMACK LABOR THROUGH LEWIS
A strike in the mines, anywhere else, will
set off the spark needed by a vtriolic, opnio
molding press. Lewis is getting top billing todA
solely because of the wonderful opportunity to
snipe at Labor. Enough adverse publicity, and
then watch the Tories go to town in Congress!
But Lewis, as usual is determined. This time
he's cunning for the WLBs little steel formula,
and let's hope he gets it!
