Int. Rep.
UER&MWA

Tuesday, Nov. 2, 1913, will be
an indication of the political prog
ress that the CLIO has made in
Dayton. On that day, the voters
of Dayton will determine who
will represent them on the City
Commission.
One of the members of my own
union, the United Electrical, Radio
and Machine Workers of America,
CLIO, is a candidate for the office
of City Commissioner.
l can truthfully say that Myron
w. Smith, of Local 755, UER&-
MWA, Delco, will be an able rep
re%sentative of the working people
of the City Commission. "Smitty"
has long been active in the labor
movement. He was a member of
Local 424, Sheet Metal Workers
International Association, AFL,
and had his first union card in
that organization in 1928. "Smitty"
has been a member of the UE-
CLIO at Delco since the organiza-
ton was first started in 1885. At
the present time he is a vice
president of UE Local 755, is a
member of the shop committee, a
delegate to the Montgomery Coun-
ty Industrial Union Council, and
is a delegate to United Labor.

Strike Loss
Only

WASHINGTON-Only two-hun-
dreths of l per cent of the num-
Der of man-days worked have
been lost from labor causes, "all
of which were of minor nature"
on jobs with which the War De-
partment has contact, according
to James P. Mitchell, labor rela-
tons director of the War Depart
ment.
Summing up his experiences
with labor's "no-strike" pledge,
Mitchell stated that such losses
were SO small as to be negli-
gible."
"A better record than that in
any human activity of such mag
nitude can hardly be imagined"
he continued. 1T is well for the
public to know this, because it
presents a picture drastically at
variance with that held by the
average newspaper reader"
, 1943-10-28

"Smitty" firmly believes that
the City Commission of Dayton
must enact an ordinance on
"black markets" and the enforce
ment of Ceiling Prices"
The "buck passing" among the
present City Commission on the
transportation problem must be
stopped, and an adequate trans
portation plan must be worked
out. He believes that the child
welfare program of Dayton must
be expanded. Dayton needs more
child care centers, and an ex-
banded recreational program.
It is my opinion hat labor as a
whole is entitled to representation
on the governing body of our city,
and the only way labor will have
hat representation is to elect

ton postwar program, that will
not only give employment to the
thousands of workers that we
know will be unemployed after the
war, but will enhance the value
and the safety of Dayton.
The completion of the elevated
railroad system is a postwar
project that is worthy of the con-
sideration of every voter of Day
ton.
A boulevard system as outlined
by the City Planning Board is
another postwar project that is
needed and will be beneficial to
Dayton as a whole.
Personally, I think that Dayton
needs more men on the City Com
mission that will express their
opinions and convictions, and will
have the moral courage to stand
by them. In "Smitty" the people

Ralph Cherry, president of Lo-

into consideration all the facts
concerning the welfare of Local
8O4, and has summarized his re-
port as follows:
Negotiations and contacts with
management have been satisfac-
tory. The issue of a general wage
increase is temporarily held in
allegiance, pending the results Of
the UE-GM negotiations, and is
the only point that is under disa-
greement.

Executive Board
Reports

The executive board of Local
8O4, United Electrical, Radio and
Machine Workers of America,
CLIO, Leland Electric, in examining
the welfare of the local union, is
able to report that the position
of the local union today, is the
strongest in its seven and one
half years history.
However, the report of the
various officers must be given
serious consideration by the men,
bership. Conrad Grimes, financial
secretary of the local, reports that
due to the increased cost of
maintaining the office, and the
overhead of our local union, plus
the increase in the per capita to
the International Union, as ordered
by the 1913 UE convention, rec
ommends that some means be
considered to eliminate the mar
row margin between the locals
income and expenses.
Membership Increasing
Robert Hutchinson, chief stew
ard, reports that the membership
is increasing rapidly, but owing
to the constant changing or trans
ferring of employees, the duties of
the stewards are becoming in
creasingly difficult. The chief
Steward has asked the executive
board of the local to assist on
recommendations to be considered
by a special meeting of all stew
ards. Bro. Hutchinson also praised
the stewards very highly for their
, 1943-10-28

latest information. 1t is suggested
that the membership urge their
stewards to attend the regular
stewards meetings.
The non-member in the shop is
a definite menace to the union.
Perhaps, not at this particular
time, but NOW is the time to
prepare for a period which may
not be as favorable to the organi-
cation as the present.
The job of completing the or
%ganization and bringing all en-
ployees into the union cannot be
assigned to any certain group.
1t is the duty of every member
of the local to make his or her
union secure Local 8O4 has a
record of which every member
can well be proud.

pARATROoP MIRACLE

There was one thrilling bit OF
untold history regarding the Allied
landing in Sicily which now can
be revealed. A division OF U. S.
parachute troops actually stopped
about two Nazi divisions which were
dashing to the seacoast to await
Allied landing barges.
This occurred the night before
the landing barges arrived. Had the
paratroopers not succeeded in hold
ing up the Nazis, U. S. troops might
have landed literally in blood
| What happened was that the
| paratroopers, coming down myster-
iously at night, not far from the
Nazi divisions, fooled the enemy
into thinking he was outnumbered
Actually, paratroop division is far

FURY IN THE AIR

u. S. air operations out OF Eng
land are now by far the most ex-
tensive and toughest operations OF
the U. S. Air Forces. Filters who
have seen action in four theatres
China, the Pacific, North Africa,
and Europe-say the first three are
childs play compared with the cur
rent falkland fighter opposition OF
Germans,
The first flight of year ago
was made without the loss OF a
single u. S. plane The Germans
were caught off guard by the day
light raid. But such things don't
happen any more. 1t is no secret
that U. S. losses on each raid over
the continent are high enough to
hurt badly, though not high enough
to stop the operations.
War correspondents in Britain
declare that U. S. airmen who fly
these missions are the greatest
heroes of the war They have to
face more fighting fury, and face
it with more skill, than any other
men in this war-whether fighting
on land, sea- or in the air.
The mental strain is SO great that
when men get themselves keyed for
raid, and then the raid is called
off, they react by dropping into a
mood of irritation and despair.

Sgt Jack Foise, correspondent for Stars and

for American soldiers who have crossed thousands
of miles of ocean and undergone considerable risk to
invade what they thought would be foreign land
He SAYS that such soldiers entering liberated towns
on Sicily "are always beseged by people shouting ::

HOROSCOPE
"The stars incline
bat do not compel"

WEDNESDAY, SEPTEMBER
Adverse aspects rule today but
good news of recent world events
may be expected. Labor again is
under threatening signs.
! HEART AND HOME: After sum-
mer romances and hasty weddings
practical plans now must concern
innumerable young folk. Since the
war has claimed millions, many
brides will find their girlhood
homes safe Ravens for the dura-
ton. This means adjustments
which may be more or less diff
cult, inasfnuch as even brief periods
of freedom from parental authority
change points of view. Moreover
parents must share the tension and
anxiety, the sorrows and mcer-
tainties that belong to their daugh-
tiers The stars seem to promise
much happiness, however, as well
as apprehension. Their will be re-
joicing over absent heroes.
BUSINESS AFFAIRS: Under
this configuration it is better TO
plan Autumn activities than it is
to launch any sort of initiative
Owing to Government policies which
vary suddenly, delays in important
enterprises are recommended Bit
ter criticism of many Washington
DEGREES affecting production and
distribution of foods and other
necessary articles of merchandise
will have salutary results late in
the Autumn, it is forecast, for pop
ular reaction will be too strong for
Congress to ignore. Experienced
men will succeed theorists in many
Government departments, if the
stars are wisely read.
NATIONAL ISSUES: From time
to time astrologers have repeated
warning of dangers within the
United States which will be en:pha
sized by subversive influences which
will gain the support of weli-mean-
ing philanthropists who arc UNI
aware of the origin Of certain ma
tionwide impulses. In the first

of various cities were subjected to

tremely heavy fighting in the air
