Water Pipe Due Soon

It is reliably reported by auth oritative sources that pipe of various sizes, a tractor. and mat erias and supplies are now as- sembled at Seattle for shipment to Kodiak for construction of the water system by the A. T. Beck ett Company.
 It is possible that the first shipment of the material is now on its way. The early comple- tion of the sewerage system will allow the contractor to take ad- vantage of the good weather for the construction of the water system.

RuiI Unions
Appeai TO Public

WASHINGTON (FP)-Spokes-
men for over a million non-operat-
ing railroad workers took their
demand for an eight cent hourly
wage increase to the American peo-
pie in a nationwide broadcast on
the Labor for Victory program.
Pres. George NJ. Harrison of the
Bros. of Railway Clerks (AFL) and
Donald Richberg, counsel for the
15 incorporating railroad unions,
joined in urging support of the
Truman Crosser resolution, which
would put congress on record in
favor of the eight cent increase,
awarded by special emergency
board and later overruled by Direc-
tor of Economic Sterilization Fred
Vinson as inflationary.
Harrison charged that the sliding
scale of wage increases, from four
to 10 cents an hour, awarded by a
second presidential board and ap-
proved by Vinson is "theoretical"
and wholly impractical of applica-
ton" Summing up the case of the
railroad workers, Harrison said:

Subsidies Save
Is Billion

WASHINGTON, Nov. 20 ,(FP)-
Government outlay of 800 million
dollars for subsidies has saved con-
sumers and the government Is bill
lion dollars in higher food prices,
OPA head Chester Bowles said in
radio broadcast on the eve of a
showdown fight in congress on the
subsidy issue.
If congress accepts the rider at
tached to the Commodity Credit
Corp. bill. banning the use of sub
sides, 1--WE are going to be in
trouble as far as the cost of liv-
ing is concerned-there's no doubt
about it." Bowles warned.
Scuttling of the subsidy program
will result in penny quart in
crease in milk, three cents pound
on cheese, four and half cents
on butter, and two to six cents a
pound on meat, he said. He out
lined a total subsidy program which
calls for the expenditure of one
and one-half billion dollars.

Jane Pitcher, formerly Of the
jeep line and beauty queen Of the

the aluminium shop. Jane is sadly
missed by the lads, or as they seem
to call them nowadays, the wolves,
when she takes those rather fre-
quent leaves of absence.
Speaking about the girls in the
aluminium division, we noticed that
Martha from Emil Schnells office
and that other gal from the office
were at the last meeting of the
Break-It off Society in the Civic
Auditorium. Judging from the way
the girls were sTaining to see the
bouts, they like their groan, grunt
and grimace entertainment.

From Brawn to Brains
Throughout the Dark Ages when
men of greater physical ability and
courage took things by force, and
battles were fought in the open, the
few men who had strength of mind
were suppressed and subjected to
cruel treatment.
Times have changed, Today men
of small stature but of intellectual
ability are considered superior to
larger men with less mental train
ing. Those who are not equipped
to work with their minds as well
as with their muscles are under a
severe handicap.
In Local IL we have an extensive
library of books, technical, fiction,

that you may learn to be better

Red Markum has had his teeth
fixed. Red was the lad who for
merly spent his money freely; but
he spent it on teeth this time. Now
that the new choppers are in he
spends all his time grinning at
everybody who comes his way.
Since getting fixed up, Red isn't
bad-looking guy.
Joe Garove, the demon boss in
the aluminium forge isn't such a
bad guy after all. At least that's
what the fellows have decided now
that "Cracker" has him eating out
of his hand. That loud noise you
will hear as Joe reads this is Gal

Raging
The Scale

At Thursday nights meeting Of
the Scale Workers Of Ohio called
to vote on an amendment to the
constitution one Of the largest
crowds to ever attend a Scale
Workers meeting was on hand.
The motion to amend the consti-
tuition was on article XIV which
reads that any question Of affilia-
ton must be decided by two
thirds vote of the entire member
ship. 1t was proposed that it he
amended to read that any question
Of affiliation must be decided by
majority vote Of the membership
present at meeting called for
that purpose.
Certain members Of the Scale
workers committee after privately
agreeing that the clause as it Is
now written is undemocratic and
unfair, went out and vigorously
campaigned against the Amend
ment on the grounds that il it
passed the CIO would come in.
Pres. Koentz for all his apparent
concern about conducting meetings
according TO the rules either deli5-
crafty or through ignorance mis-
used his position as chairman to
speak against the motion from the
chair even before it had been put
on the floor for discussion. We
can't believe he is that ignorant.
The committee in it's zeal to beat
the motion even ran in at least
one perhaps more ineligible voters
who they knew would vote against
it. They must be afraid that over
half of the people Of the Scale are
at last coming to the decision that
they need a stronger and more ef-
fective bargaining agency repre-
senting them in the future, espe-
cially in the post war world such
as it is likely to be.
If the committee really wants
the membership to know what is
happening they should read the
minutes of their grievance meet
ings -. the company and explain
why out of five grievances turned
in by Dept. 25, not one was settled
in favor of the union. This as
1907 representation alright.
We wish to thank those who do
not belong to Local II but yet were
fair minded enough to vote for the
amendment. We are very salts
fled with the vote as it clearly
showed that the Scale workers of
Ohio no longer have a definite ma
jority and in a labor board elec-
ton $40 will decide the issue.
