Anti-Lubor Policies

Labor TO eliminate all Unnecessary buy
ing this Christmas. Then try 10 induce
usually spend on gifts, 80 per cent Of
which is absolutely Unnecessary, into
War Bonds and Stamps.
Another thing we cannot understand
is the policy Of the papers shouting
patriotism at the top of It's lungs while
at the same time doing everything in
It's power TO discredit our present ad-
miniStration and destroy confidence ifi
our Commander-in-C Chiel. While we all
realize that just criticism is Il good
thing, we also know there is Il vast
difference in just criticism and out
right opposition.
There was a great hope that the
delegates to the \. +. Oi l.. convention
would be able to do something in re
CARDS to having published Il complete
| list of the names of the congressman
and senators voting III favor of the
Smith-C -Connally Anti-Stri,e Bill. Every
union man, worthy Of the name should
do everything in his power to defeat
every so-called representative Of the
people who voted in favor Of this
vicious anti-labor law.
If there isn't curl put on such
tactics and done i'm the least possible
time, there is no telling how far they
will 60. The issue is up to the ind-
vidual. 1t is YOUR duty and mine, as
members of Union Labor TO use every
honorable weapon at our command to
defeat those who have 80 little knowi-
edge Of the problems Of labor and re-
place them with men who have an
understanding of our problems.
1t is the opinion of the writer that
union men and women Of Sebring have
Il chance to elect Il working man to the
highest Office the village affords. Bro
ther Al Harmon, labor candidate for
mayor, has been Il member of Local
80 for the past 40 years. He was Il
very active member until few years
ago when illness and misfortune caused
his temporary retirement. He has re
gained his health and once more j.
active in union and political affairs.
His conduct in the past leaves no
doubt as to his adherence to the aims
and principals of Union Labor. While
he lays no claim to being an intellec-
tual giant. | believe he is imbued with
good old fashioned common sense to
fill the position to which he aspireS
The fact that he held this office before
his retirement seems To be sufficient
proof of his ability to handle the al
fairs of the village in in honest anC
efficient manner. If elected, | feel sure
he will continue to conduct the affairs

The council listed specific instances

Altogether more than 120 towns
