ENOUGH PLANTS AND
TOOLS TO WIN WAR

Washington, d. S. (ILNS). - War
production in the United States reach
ed a significant level this week with
the announcement by the War PrOduc-
ton Board that we now have most of
the machine tools and capital equip
ment needed to build production to de-
feat the Axis.
A new program is being put into eff
feet. 1t calls for re-eXaminatiOn of all
approved projects for construction of
new machinery and plant and elimina-
ton of all projects no longer needed.
No purchase of new machine tools.
machinery or equipment or erection OF
buildings will be authorized until it has
been conclusively shown that the work
cannot be done by existing facilities.
This does not mean increased unem-
plOyment. 1t means shifting of workers
to other lines of production. Emphasis
is still on building of more ships and
more planes. And here and there new
tools and new plants may be required
for new engines of war growing out of
our experience in battling the Axis.

Local Union No. 124 held their reg,-

new problems coming up that must be
solved.
At the Hall China Company they are
now using girls on one of the decor

on the one kiln where the work is the
lightest, it is the opinion of the men
who work there that the difference of
pay Of the girls should be divided
among the jOurneymen kilnmen.
We were sorry to hear that the
barber situation in Chester has as vet
shown little improvement This matter
was thoroughly discussed, but there

be fair if they don't care to be. About

is to give it all the publicity we can

No Convention This
Year, Trade Rules
Returns From Referendum
Show Overwhelming Mo-
joritY Opposed

The returns from the referendum
vote throughout the trade We're tabu-
lated at headquarters yesterday show
ing that the potters by an Overwhelm-
ing majority are opposed to holding a
Nantional Convention this year.
The Executive Board, in calling for
Il vote of the trade on whether or not
a convention would be held this year,
recommended that we fOrego this
years's cOnclaye after an inveStiga-
tion by them revealed that Atlantic
City, the favOrite spot of the potters
was definitely out of the picture in re-
CARDS to hotel accommodations.
This will make the third time in the
history of the organization that con
ventiOn will not be held, the other
years being 1881 and 1888.
Printed returns of the detailed vote
are now in the hands of the printers
and will be mailed to all Local Unions
shortly.

For Non-Attenders

Local Union No. IL had plenty of
business to transact at their meeting
Tuesday evening, in fact all of our
meetings lately have shown an increase
in business. We are sorry that we can
not report the same increase in our
attendance. Starting with our first
meeting in July any member who fails
to attend at least one meeting a month
will be fined fifty cents.
Quite discussion was held over the
recent passage of the Ross bill by our
representatives in Columbus 1t was
reported that one of our representa-
tives from this district had voted for
the bill If such report is true his
reward will be waiting for him at the
polls when he seeks reelection.
1t was reported that women were
being put on jiggering in one of our
local plants President Kelly appointed
a committee composed of Brothers
Bennett, Digman, Hall, Sprout and
Terrence to investigate this rumor and
report back at our next meeting.
While speaking of our next meeting,
let me remind you that we will elect
local officers. Every member should
come out and help choose those best
qualified to serve us.-O.C. II.

At our regular meeting Friday, May

who stated that at a recent meeting
of that body Mr.. n. Duff urged union
men and women to watch closely the
legislation that is being proposed by
those who would destroy everything
that stands for the right of union to
exist.
The foes of labor are many and most
prominent are Captain Eddie Ricken-

many others. Make no mistake about
it brothers these birds mean business

of fireworks from all sides. When the
smoke cleared away our enemy hOisted
the white flag and everybody pros

While lively discussions tend to in

| am sure that if more of our mem

and find out what efforts other locals
throughout the trade are doing to i'm
prove these conditions, much of the
time spent over wrangling about
matters which are out of our hands,
could be put to better use.
When a member can only find time
to attend his local union meeting when
he has Il bone to pick, the value of
that man to his organization is no
thing to brag about The same can be

everything is settled then puts up the
old cry to get back. This is a situa

among some of our brothers lately, and
the local has decided that something
must be done about it. If Il member
insists on being conspicuous when such
trouble creeps up and will not lend
his efforts in behalf of seeking settle
ments, certainly man like this is not
worthy to be called brother member.
Overheard in the shop the other day
a discussion between two of our mem

WLB Asks Restoration Of Power
To Make Needed Wage Adjustments

Washington, d. C.-The members of
the War Labor Board, acting unani-
mOusly, served notice on Economic Sta
bilization Director Byrnes at a White
House conference that President
ROOsevelt's Executive Order which
barred wage increases beyond the
Little Steel formula is unavoidable. y
With public, labor and industry rep
resentatives uniting, the WLB declared
that it must have power to deal with
inequities and inequalities in order to
function effectively.
While awaiting a definite response
from Byrnes, the WLB sent a report
to Vice President Wallace emphasizing
that the wage increases it has thus
far granted have not added percept-
IDLY, either directly or indirectly, to
the cost of living burden of the Amer.
lean people,
In letter transmitting this report
which was requested in a Senate reso-
luton adopted April 8, WLB Chairman
William II. Davis said that wage ad
justments since the creation of the
Office of Economic Sterilization Oct
3, 1912, "have had microscopic effect
upon prices"
All voluntary wage increases ap'
proved by the WLB since last October
The potters herald. [volume] (East Liverpool, Ohio) 1899-1982, 1943-05-20

afforded prices in only eight cases
out of every three thousand" Mr..
Davis revealed.
This report was considered tanta-
mount to a declaration by the WLB
that the Presidents Executive Order
which practically "frOZe" wages was
unnecessary, since the wage increases
granted by the board have not been
infationary in effect.
Davis, in his letter transmitting the
WLB report to the Senate, declared
that the board has been able to make
great strides toward StabiliZing wages
without affecting the price structure
He explained that the cost of living
was effected by ''the pressure which
increased payrolls bring to bear ON the
price structure in period when the
amount of consumer goods and serv-
ices available for purchase is shrink
ing
He then pointed out that between
September 1912, and February 1913
the latest date for which figures are
available, industrial, transportation
trade and service payrolls increased
40 per cent. He added that three
quarters of this resulted from factors
inherent in the national purpose tC

That's how labor regards ruling

Brown this week making mild ges-
ture at redeeming President ROOSe-
velts pledge to reduce living costs.
Brown announced that the price of
meat, butter and coffee will be ROLLED

coupled with the disclosure ihat this
is to be done without hitting the
profiteers. The saving to a family Of
four, Brown conceded, would not eX-

The plan is to rob Peter to pay Paul
by paying subsidies to producers-the
first link in the chain of middlemen.
Browns order falls far short of the
promise made by the President in his
recent radio broadcast. He gave con
SumerS the right to believe prices
would be restored to the level of Sep
tember, 1912, to bring them in line
with the Little Steel wage formula.
During the last two weeks the OPA
authorized increases in meat prices
averaging 20 per cent, or twice as
much as the reduction.

FORESTER DEPARTS
Best Wishes Of Local Ex-
tended Past President
Gdspdrd Baker

Trenton, n. J.-At our meeting on
May 10 Local Union No 1874 elected
the following officers for the ensuing
term: President, Joseph McNerney :
vice president, Samuel Jackson: tinan-
cial secretary, Bertha HObson; record
ing secretary, Walter Smith: treas
urer, William Rowley; statistician,
Daisy Hauser; inspector, Gene Bicllle !;
guard, Alex Young; trustees, William
August, Laura Bailey and Harry
POtaSniclI.
The following members comprise the
shop committee for the coming year
and were appointed by the new incom-
ing president Samuel Jackson, Bertha
Hobson, Laura Bailey, Walter Smith
and William August.
Former President GaSpard Baker
has left the trade and at the present
time is operating an art ware decor
ating plant in Trenton. The local
wishes brother Baker the best of sue
cess i'm his new venture and have, on
many occasions during his two terms
as chairman of the local, expressed
their appreciation for his intelligent
and active leadership in trade union
activities.
Former financial secretary Maurice
Forester has suddenly left the trade
and it is rumored that he went
South" with the Defense Program.
At the present time a majority of
the employees of the LenOX plant are
working six days a week. The Local
has gone on record and has petitioned
the Executive Board to have re-
opening of the wage scale in order TO
negotiate for increased rates of pay
in the china ware branch of the indus
try.
The new officers who have been
chosen to head the Local for the next
term are capable officials and are en-
titled to the support of the entire mem
bership in order that Local 1874 may
continue to progress in It's relationship
with the Company-O.C. 1874.
