ORGANIZATION

By an overwhelming majority,
Local 1901 of the United Mine
Workers transferred their affilia-
ton to the CLIO. The move has
been in the making for several
months as the members of Local
1901 have felt that they need the
CLIO in service and backing in their
local negotiations.
At the membership meeting, Or
vile L. Kuhnle, Editor of this
paper, gave a stirring speech in
Eehalf of the work that CLIO has
done for the working men and
women of Dayton.
We feel that these Dayton men
and women, working in Dayton
industries, have a definite part in
this Council and we intend to give
them every possible assistance in
strengthening their organizations
The new office of the Mine
Workers, who will receive their
charter from CLIO in the near flu
ture, will be located at 9 East
Fifth St., in the room next to the

This is a cut Of the poster that
will be attached to the fly-leaf of
all books that are turned IN to the
Council. The Local number will be
printed on each poster so that our
soldier boys know that CLIO 10
Gals r helping to make their re-
creation time more pleasant.
Any Local who has books to be
sent to the soldier boys can call
the offices of the Council and we
will see that they are delivered
The poster and the name and num-
Der of each Local will be plainly
printed on the fly-leaf.
This is an opportunity to help
the boys in the service who are
wanted, no complex or scientific
material, PLEASE!

WARNING

We have received a letter from
Ted Silvey, Secretary Treasurer
of the Ohio State Council. Ted is
the representative of the CLIO who
is SO active in the legislative halls
of Ohio.
The letter is marked URGENT;
There are two bills that are to be
considered by the Ohio House OF
Representatives. They are num-
bered Is and 1913, and if passed will
destroy every Labor Union in Ohio.
They are introduced by Represen-
tative French of Delaware County,
and we would like to add tina,
DELAWARE COUNTY HAS NO
LABOR UNIONS!
We would strongly urge all
members that the best method OF
showing appreciation for all the
privileges we have gained, to
write a protest to these bills. The
address is the Ohio House of Re-
preventative, Military Affairs
Committee, Columbus, Ohio. The
men to be addressed are Repre-
sentatives, Slagle, Burge, Carr,
Deming, Early, Fenton, Fleckner,
Giffin, Marshall, McElhaney,
Simpson, Stewart, Turner, VIII
hams, Bahka, Barrick, Kovach.
Just a penny post card to these
men will help. We must protect
the existing Labor laws and fight
against adverse legislature if we
are to keep the rights that Labor
has fought for in the past hundred
years

A PitifuI Confession

Writes Fred Speice, city commissioner, in a "letter to
the editor" regarding the continuous audit of city books:
Under the state system of examiners there are two
copies Of the inspection report One is sent to the finance d-
rector and the other to the city attorney, both Of whom are
appointed by the city manager, and the city commission knows
made in this report"
Without meaning to be unduly severe to MIR. Speice-
for other members of the commission have made the same
statement-we think that is a pitiul confession for a city
commissioner to make.
Under the conmissioner-manager form of government,
the city commissioners are elected by the people and are re
sponsible to the people. They appoint a city manager, and he
in turn appoints department heads.
If the commissioners don't know what's going on in city
hall, they have no business there and bluntly, should get out.
If their city manager, responsible to them alone, is con-
cealing information from them, they should get a new city
manager.
If the finance director and the city attorney are hiding
facts from the city manager, he should fire them and appoint
more trusted men in their places.
The fact that a department head could hide something
from the manager IS an indictment Of the manager for negl-
gence, and the fact that the city commissioners would toler-
ate such an inefficient manager on the job is an indictment
of the commissioners for falling down on the job and be-
taying the trust the people showed in electing them.
We agree with MIR. SPECIES inuendo that something is
wrong in city hall. But we don't agree with him in shifting
all of the blame to the city manager, the finance director,
and the city attorney. Part of the blame attaches to the COM
nisioners themselves for failing to keep posted on municipal
affairs and for retaining a city manager and corps of depart
mental appointees who can't be trusted to do their jobs well.
to the editor, it behooves the commissioners, as representa-
tives of the people, to do something about the unholy mess in
city hall. Time for words is past; let's have a bit of action.
