Attack on Rick Uncalled For'- Thomas
JAW Head SIaps S|ur;
Hits Army Strike Policy

COLUMBUS, o., March 3.-R,
]. Thomas, UAW-CIO president,
today described as completely
for" an attack on Capt
Eddie Rickenbacker by an official
of the ALL machinist union who
called the flying ace a rat"
Referring to remarks made by
David G.. Levitt at a meeting OF
West Coast aircraft workers
Thomas said:
THE personal attack on
Eddie Rickenbacker by an or
ganizer of an ALL union was
completely uncalled for. This
type Of attack il not represent
tative of the labor movement.
II have publicly criticized
Rickenbacker's unfair attacks
on labor. 1 do not believe he IL
qualified to talk on absenteeism
and other industrial problems
on which he Is currently so
loquacious.
However, the labor move
ment does not contest his right
to make the speeches. Demo-
cracy gives man the right to
be wrong, even unfair, In public
remarks. Rickenbacker Is exer-
cising that right to the limit.
That is his privilege.
II strongly deplore the refe-
renee to Rickebacker as a rat
Labor Is glad his life was
spared during his terrible or
deal in the South Seas"

BY JACK CRELLIN
Times Labor Editor

COLUMBUS. o., March 3.--At-
lacking Col. George K. Strong,
chief plant protection officer OF
the army air force in Detroit, r.
j. Thomas, UAW-CIO president,
today denounced procedure used
by the army in disciplining work.
ers for alleged participation in
wildcat strikes and warned he
would carry his protest to WASH
-ington.
Without mentioning Col. Strong
by name, Thomas said that the
union would not defend any per.
son guilty of deliberately subvert-
ing the war effort but he felt that
army procedure in handling So
called "subversives" to date was
working a hardship on loyal en-
ployes and impeding the orderly
processes of collective bargaining.
LIST TROUBLE MAKERS
'Tn one case" Thomas said,
can army representative re-
quested an employer to supply q
list Of trouble makers who were
to be discharged. In other cases,
the army has ordered men dis
charged and then withdrawn OBJ
tections to such discharges, only
to find the employer refusing to
re-employ the men,"
That Thomas attack was. on
Col. Strong there is little doubt.
because Strong is unique in that
he is the only army officer in the
country who takes discipline into
his own hands when wildcat
strikes occur.
Thomas said he would propose
that the war department adopt
the following procedure:
THAT no man or woman be
discharged as a subversive- UNI
less there are definite charges
OF sabotage, trafficking with the
enemy or enemy agents, or con.
spiracy to disrupt war produc-
ton.
DEMANDS HEARING
! 2-That all accused persons
be granted a hearing, and that
the union have the right to ap-
pear at the hearing.
3-That where the army has
withdrawn its objections to the
employment Of any worker, such
worker shall be forthwith re-
stored to his job regardless Of
employer objection.
Earlier in the day, the 22-mau
IUAW-CIO executive board voted
to hold the unions convention this
October in Toronto. Can. Ten
days ago Thomas had informed
Secretary of Labor Francis Per-
kins that he could not comply
with her request to cancel the
convention which draws approxi-
mately LOO delegates.
A delegation from Ford Local
No. so at the Willow Run bomber
plant is expected to arrive here
tomorrow to request autonomy for
their local. William McAulay, re-
gional JAW director and Admins
traitor of the local, said he was in
favor Of the move.
