Selection of
Proper Clothing
important

During this critical year Of war
and uncertainty, every man on the
home front should dress himself to
the best of his ability.
It does not necessarily take a
fat pocketbook to make a we'll
dressed man. A little common sense
in the selection Of his clothes,
based on his height and weight,
can make any man we'll dressed.
The right clothing can be an ef-
fective morale builder. Who hasn't
experienced the psychological lift
that a new suit or sport outfit can
give to an otherwise depressed
soul.
Fashion Trend Same as 1912
The trend of fashion for the
coming season will be on the same
par as last year, with the exception
Of the zoot suit Clipper coat and
peg pants, which are becoming
more popular every day. The more
conservative dresser will still want
his coat in a single or double
breasted model made of hard fin
ished worsteds that will hold their
original shape. The more sporty
attire will be the coverts, tweeds
and gabardines.
The new 1943 sportswear has
been designed to meet the require
ments Of nation at war or
work. This means the clothing
must be practical and without frills
yet give the wearer complete com.
fort and style.

Thomas Burke, Local II vice
president, is temporary chairman
of the Victory Garden Club which
will organize the project. A per-
manent committee will be set up
at the next Local II stewards meet
ing, Monday evening, April II, at
Local IL headquarters.
First Come, First Served
Thomas Burke, discussing the
Victory garden project said, I'VE
are very fortunate to be given the
i1an Of the ground by the Catholic
Charities, and we hope our mem
bers will take full advantage of
thei, opportunity to aid themselves,
and at the same time make an ad-
ditional contribution to the war
effort Every bit of food that we
raise and can this summer and
fall will be that much more toward
the welfare Of our soldiers, and
take some Of the pressure off the
farmers who are already hard
pressed to raise all the food which
we and our allies need"
To Set Up Committee
A committee will be named at
Monday nights Local II meeting
which will set to work Immediately
allotting the available ground,
arranging for plowing, purchasing
Of seed and other necessary ar
rangements for the project.
Melvin Schultz, Local IL presi-
dent spoke approvingly Of the
Victory garden plan and expressed
the hope that everyone who was in
terested attend the Monday night
meeting and make arrangements to
get their space.
President Schultz said, 81 doubt
if we will have sufficient ground
to supply the needs Of all those
who will be interested in planting
a Victory garden, so we will give
out the space on first come, first
served basis. Should it occur that
all available space is not asked
for, we will contact the shop chair
men and let them know of any
ground which may still be avail
able"

the sale of the United States Treas
ury bonds, or $14,686, ,492 over its
quota. With this record, in which
the area subscribed 1852 percent
of its quota during the December
drive, the chairman expressed con-
fidence that the Fifth Area will
meet its quota of sales in the Sec
ond War Loan Drive.

committee and part-time for the
personnel director, which in the
end would mean. she would not
work for the transportation COM
mittee at all.
1t is quite obvious the company
would like to replace the union
transportation committee with non
union employees who would work
for the same low rate of wages
paid other office employees who
work on the sixth floor, a fact
which illustrates that the company
is thinking mainly about its purse
and is not concerned with any of
the problems of transportation,
which can only be handled proper
ly by union employees who know
the problems of the workers in
getting to and from work.
GOVERNMENT BE DAMNED
In effect, the management of the
Champion has been saying ever
since the transportation commit
tee was created, "the government
be damned" 1t has grudgingly ac-
cepted that which it cannot evade,
and evaded as much as possible,
any and all real cooperation with
the transportation committee, the
same as it has neglected to aid its
employees in the purchase of bonds.
Such an attitude is, of course,
the privilege of the company. Yet,
ir the final analysis, this attitude
does net promote good relations
between the company and its en-
ployes, and eventually will lead to
serious MISUNDERSTANDING.
1t takes two to cooperate; but
up to the present, the company has
taken such an attitude that all the
cooperation has been one sided and
has been the sole contribution of
the union. Just what does it take
to wake up the management to
the realities Of the situation, and
get it to act like it was interested
in winning the war as we'll as
amassing money from it.
Note: April 5 the company put
a girl to work in the transporta-
ton office-get it?

owl Censors
Labor
Speaker
Reference To
Rickenbacker
Stricken From Talk
By Federated Press

DETROIT-A new wrinkle
in censorship developed in De-
troit March 27 when the OWL
local office not only ordered
changes in the proposed broad
cast of a government employe at
labor meeting but of the labor
chairman's Introductory remarks
as well.
The government speaker was
Mrs. Dorothy Roosevelt of the la
Dor production division, War Pro-
duction Board. He introducer was
president G.. Pat Quinn of Wayne
County CIO Council. The meeting
was in the Hotel Statler ballroom
March %, called by the council
to discuss child care problems.
Owl Right Not Questioned
The Owls right to modify the
remarks of a government speaker
was not questioned but emphatic
protest was made when the chair
mans introduction was ripped up
and cut down almost a third. The
original script had already been
approved by Station WXYZ.
Quinn was not allowed, for ex-
ample, to refer to Mrs. Roosevelt
"A sister-in-law of Eleanor Roose-
velt--as "our good friend and help
er." The words "and helper" were
cut out.
Chairman Also Censored
Nor was he allowed to say that
he wished the "labor batting ap-
peaser congressman and the Rick
enbackers" had listened in to the
broadcast by three working moth
ers which Immediately preceded
Mrs. Roosevelt's appeara nee.
Quinns reference to Mrs. Roose-
velt's gallant progressive fight
for congress in November" was
also killed.
The OWL politely disclaimed any
intention to censor. "We are mere
ly protecting Mrs. Roosevelt and
labor itself by our action" the
OWL spokesman said.

TRANSPORTATION

Ran OI ON "A AOAN
About one year ago, every COM
pany and union in the country was
requested by the government to
set up transportation committees
When employment due to the
war made such strides that the
transportation system which norm
ally carries only ID per cent of the
workers was overloaded, it became
evident that some steps would have
to be taken by the government to
insure against breakdown of the
transportation system.
Add to the tremendous transpor-
tation load furt her demands
brought about by gasoline ration
ing, and it became even more evil
dent that the creation of shop
transportation committees was an
absolute necessity.
CHAMPIONS PROBLEM
In the face Of great opposition
from the Champion Spark Plug Co.
management, which even to this
day does not show too much coop
GRAFTON with the transportation
committee which was set up in our
shop, we have managed to arrange
transportation efficiently for the
many workers Of the company,
who would not have these facilities
without the transportation commit
tee.
In order to handle the transpor-
tation problem, and it is a great
problem, we have secured two male
employees to work full-time in a
special office set aside for their
use, who not only work the regu-
lar hours; but put in extra time
without any remuneration.
STILL OBSTRUCTING
Despite the fact the company
has given the transportation COM
mittee an office and tacitly per-
mitted the union to have two of
its members work on the transpor-
tation problem on a full-time basis,
it has been obvious right along
that the company still was not
convinced that there was any
necessity for the existance of such
a committee.
Additional proof of the COM
pany's opposition to the trans
portation committee came last
week, when Heap Big Noise" in
the Production Dept. office at
tempted to lure the chairman of
the transportation committee away
to another job, after painting him
a rosy picture about the future Of
the job he offered him. All of this
despite the fact that the personnel
director knew that if the chairman
of the transportation committee did
take the job offered him he would
not only lose his seniority, but
would be crucified by his former
fellow-members.
We have additional proof that
the company has plans to put a
girl in the transportation office
who would work part-time for the

Nine. Chionq
Visits Union
Meeting
Calls Members
"FellOw Workers
RY Federated Press

SAN FRANCISCO - In sur
prise visit, Nine Chang Kai-shek
ended her five-day stay in San
Francisco by attending meeting
of Local 10, International Long
shoremen's and Warehousemen's
Union (CIO).
Leaders Of the CIO, AFL and
railroad brotherhoods were asked
to the meeting as soon as Nine.
Chang announced her impending
arrival, thus permitting her to ad-
dress representatives of all branch
es of organized labor. 1t was the
only labor meeting she has attend
ed on her tour Of the u. S.
Addresses Fellow Workers"
Addressing her hearers as "fel-
low workers." the first lady of
China said that she meant" that
phrase, because | know l am
speaking to a cross section of all
labor in America, both men and
women, and what / am going to
say to you is meant for every one
Of the laborers in America"
"We must not oily win this war, !"
Nine. Chang said, 1--WE must also
win the peace which comes after
the war. But in order to win the
peace, we must first win the war,
and at the earliest moment pos
sible.
Your task is not one whit less
important than that Of the fighting
forces at the front. Because my
own country has no heavy indus
tries we have been fighting with
flesh and blood. You have heavy in
dustries You can provide the mu.
nitions not only for yourselves, but
for China as WELL"
Comments on Labor Unity
Commenting on the evidence OF
labor unity before her, Nine. Chi.
ang said: "We must let no dissen-
sion, no difference Of opinion
come between us, because if we do
we will be defeated. Let all labor
cooperate and increase production.
II know that you are all patri-
otic. Patriotism does not conflict
with having a worldwide universal
ism. | know you have noble ideals,
not only for yourselves, but for all
mankind, And | speak to you as
did to my own people in San Fran
cisco; being patriotic means that
they and you are better workers y
In introducing Nine. Chang
Germain Bulcke, president of the
local, recalled the days when the
ILWU refused to load scrap iron
for Japan and were accused in con-
sequence Of being trouble makers
and Communists"
Because we knew China's fight
was our fight and the fight OF
everyone who believes in democra-
cy," Bulcke said, Eve risked our
livelihood, we risked the gains and
rights for which we had all fought,
and for which some Of us had
died"
Pledges Labor Cooperation
August Gaynor pledged the rail
brotherhoods' Continued, whole
hearted cooperation to the end that
the supplies, much needed by your
country, will reach their destina.
tion at the earliest possible mo-
ment."
State Senator John f Shelley,
president of the San Francisco La

with the terms of House Bill 1913
now pending before the Judiciary
committee of the Ohio State House
Of Representatives and is against
"union racketeers who control the
unions"
Mr.. Bradley claims that the
Toledo Real Estate Board does
not represent the large property
holders so much as people who
own but one home, and who have
not benefited by the raises which
have taken place in wages, foods
and other commodities. According
to Mr.. Bradley, the real estate
people have been Disseminated
against by the government.
We Can Kick Them Out
Mr.. Bradley also let it be known
in no uncertain terms that he is
opposed to the administration,
which he says "will control every
thing, even labor unions, when this
war is over" moreover, he said
that if property. owners don't
want people in their homes, they
can "kick them out" He said eve
have ways and means of doing
this"
Asked point blank if he had
kicked any people ont of homes,
Bradley replied, "No, but I could
if / wanted to, and nobody could
stop me-" He claimed the entire
rent control unconstitutional ard
said, 1--WE are going to break the
thing wide OPEN"
Union Makes Statement
Union leaders in Toledo have
given their support to opposing
any changes in the rent control.
Melvin Schultz, president of Local
IL, NAW-CIO referring to the ef-
forts of the National Real Estate
Board to sabotage the rent control
program said, 1--WE shall support
the stand taken by the Information
al UAW-CIO. If for some reason
or other Prentiss Brown should
submit to the real estate interests,
we shall advise our people to pay
only their present rents and refuse
to pay increases"
Others Make Comment
Others who commented:
Thomas Russell, executive sec-
retary of the Toledo Industrial
Union Council, I'VE certainly are
opposed to any further inflationary
procedures no matter from what
source they come. The rent con-
troll phase of the wartime regula-
tions has been the one bright spot
in an otherwise dark picture"
Clarence Borgeld, president of
Local ID, UAW-CIO, "Rent control
has been one of the best things that
was ever done during time of war.
If this is destroyed, then we will
have wild initiation and only the
Lord knows where or when it will
end "
