Garden Club Begins Plan
for Huge Victory Rally

Yesterdays meeting of the
Garden Club was luncheon at
Mrs. Frank Priehs' home, with
Mrs. Alfred Henk giving q short
talk on the forcing of spring
Towering shrubs. She brought
with her some forsythia branch
es she has brought to early flow
er by forcing. She pointed out
that branches should be picked
carefully, to assist pruning, and
that they will flower in from
three to four days to four weeks,
depending upon how close their
natural Towering date Is. The
best time TO pick branches for
forcing is after a mild rain or
heavy thaw, and the most popu-
lar choices for forcing are for
sythia, Japanese ounce, dog
wood, magnolia and pussy will
lows, all of which may be forced
now.
Mrs. Charles Doll and Mrs.
Arthur Donaldson headed teams

WASHINGTON, Feb. @ A
number of problems connected
with meat rationing have with
drawn that commodity from the
list of starters in War Ration
Book 2. But, after the point-ra-
tioning system has been tried
out on canned fruits and vege-
tables, you'll see meat as the
next entry, with cheese as its
running mate.
One reason for coupling meat
and cheese is that they are in
terchangeable sources of protein.
But remember, when you've
used up your meat allowance
you won't be able to turn in cou-
pons for the cheese substitute.
For when you've used your meat
coupons, you've used the cheese
coupons, too.

The New Year

As we approach the threshold of the
new year, we realize that many things,
most of them unpleasant, are in store for
the people of this country in 1914.
Invasion of the continent of Europe
promised us by our President after his con-
ferences in Cairo and Teheran with the
heads of the other United Nations, is al
most certain to bring great loss of life and
many thousands in wounded soldiers,
mostly American boys, since the brunt OF
the invasion is going to be borne by Amer
lean soldiers.
What the next few months of the war
is going to bring this country is matter
of conjecture, for it is "A certainty that Ger
many has had a long time to prepare for
the invasion and will not be caught nap
ping.
Threats of initiation at first whispered
in 1943, have become loud, and will appar-
emily become a serious reality in 1914. De-
spite efforts Of the workers to prevent
initiation, it now appears that it will require
greater effort, almost heroic measures
on the part of the government to stem the
tide which cannot help but work a hard

ers of the country.
Fortunately for man, he is gifted with
more hindsight than foresight and not too
much of the former. Yet, we face the fu-
ture confident that our people will meet
whatever it may bring, as they have al
ways met the circumstances of time and
conditions, with courage and the ability to
win through.
Our hope for Happier 1914 is not les
sened because of our uncertainty. Rather
it is our expression of confidence in the
workers to meet the uncertainties of the
future with the will to win.

The New Deal

News from Washington that President
Roosevelt has decided to junk the name
New Deal as descriptive of his administra-
tiOn and substitute for ii "Win the War"
creates in US absolutely no reaction.
Since the present congress entered up
on its duties one year ago, the New Deal
has been sabOtaged and attacked from
dozens of angles and on all sides. IL has
been subjected to criticism and insults and
been kicked around by those who have
hated and feared the administration.
Labor has no illusions about the New
Deal. 1t has suffered along with the ad-
mlnlstratlOn because the foes of both are
In the same camp. Labor alone can pre-
serve and salvage the New Deal from the
ravages of war and the reaction which has
swept the country for the past three years.
Labor alone can assure itself a cOntinua-
ton of the policies of the New Deal now
and in the postwar world by uniting and
fighting the common fight for economic
justice.
The new year 1914 shall decide whether
or not the principles of the New Deal
shall be continued. The answer is up to
labor in the elections of the coming year.

New NAM Head

In the election of Robert NJ Gaylord to
the presidency of the National Association
of Manufacturers, the association has
fitting successor for Frederick c. Craw-
ford. who served during the past year and
now becomes chairman of the board OF dl-
rectors of the association.
Mr.. Gaylord is head of the lngersoll
Milling Machine Co. of Rockford, Illinois,
plant whose employees belong to company
dominated union, the Industrial Employees
Association, and yet have no written labor
contract
In accepting the head job with the
NAM. Mr.. GAYLORD expressed himself by
saying that he was ian ordinary punk who
started out to work after school and kept
on working"
Mr.. GaylOrd's ideas can be summed up
in his own words, Il don't know the differ
ence between management problems and
labor problems" And "let the men work
ing at the bench know the head of the
business Not call him by his first name
This first name stuff is the bunk. It's al
fectatiOn in many places. The men ought
to know what you look like, know where
you live, see you occasionally. A plant
manager ought to get over his properties"
According to the new NAM head, men
who attempt to organize are guilty of "cOn-
spiracy. 1t STILES competition"
With such views and not forgetting the
fact that the MANS head for the next II
months was one of the main hackers of the
America First Committee when it was or
ganized in his home town of Rockford, we
cannot help but agree with the Rockford
Labor News when it declares that Gaylord
is well suited to rock the cradle and
mother the ideas of the uniOn-hatlng
NAM"

possibly can do so will witness the ceremony and
wish Tom every success in his new office. The
new council body will meet at 1880 p. m. at which
time the newly elected members of the body,

A BIG YEAR
All of us can readily see that 1914 is going
to be big year with many important events to
occur
The war which is reaching its climax in
Europe might very possibly end this year, with
the Pacific showing promise of ending trl-
umphantly for us.
This year, 1914 will also bring the presidential
and national elections in which labor is
vitality interested than any other event except
the winning of the
This year will be test of labors political
strength and unity. 1t will determine whether
labor is going to make progress politically, or
whether we are going back to the old days when
we were divided and kept that way by those who
had much to gain by disunity.
Labor stands to gain or lose in the 1914 cleo
tons There can be no standing still. If we do not
unite and remain united, we shall lose more than
an election. We shall lose all the economic and
social gains which have been accumulated over
the past few years.
What will occur in 1914 none of US can tell,
vet, we know what must take place if we to r@.TI
main as one of the greatest forces in the ecd
omc and social life of this nation. We must
gin now to play important part in the politA \
field, part which must not be left until the IA
few weeks before the primaries and election.
We look forward to 1914 and hope that labor
will cross all lines of race color and creed to
unite in its own interests and win great victory.
We believe that this and must be DONE and
l urge all of you to prepare to do your part in be-
half Of your own economic interest and that of
the rest of the workers.
Toledo union journal. [volume] (Toledo, Ohio) 1942-current, 1943-12-31

members that we have not been forgotten, and
that the same forces which tried to weaken us
in 1943, will be up to their old tricks in 1944.
POLITICAL UNITY
In Toledo, organized labor accomplished "a
great step in the right direction during 194S
when it organized Labor's Joint Committee for
Political Action, an association of labor groups
from the AFL, CIO and Railroad Unions
We not only effected organization; but
we managed to elect people to office whom we
believe to be our friends We know We elected
Tom Burke, and believe votes and activities
had lot to do with electng four additional men
to Council.
What we are able to do the local political
front must be accomplished on national scale
if labor has any hopes of making progress. am
not referring to protecting the gains already made,
that must be done. What and other workers are
interested in, is the extension of social security
laws, better protection for the workers, more
adequate compensation for workers injured at
their employment or suffering from occupational
diseases, and dozens of other considerations in
which labor is interested. ~
1t is my feeling that labor succeed itSl
will set aside all its organizational dlfferenstz
and realize that the thing that is going to cos5s u
the most is winning an election There are mi ~
critics of labor who say cannot do this or
national scale; but say we not only can 90 TI
but must do it unless we wish to place our
selves in a position where our organizatonal
differences will trade into nothing.
We look forward to 1914 with hope and in the
belief that the workers of the country will realize
where their best interests lie and vote accord
ingly.
HAPPY NEW YEAR
l want to this occasion to wish all the
officers and members of all the UAW CIO Locals
in Region 2-B Happy New Year. | also wish to
extend the greetings of the season to our AFL
and Railroad Union brothers associated with us
in Labor's Joint Committee for Political Action
and express the hope that political ties will
become stronger as go along. ! want to thank
everyone who contributed to the success of the
last campaign and hope that We may continue
to cooperate in unity with each other.
