One of the big stumbling blocks in the negotiations be- tween the Union and the Management the Union demand for Union shop. The Unions demand has been woded that it is for workers here to lose their jobs The Union merely asking that every worker who benefits by the Union contract should be required to chip in monthly Union dues and to thereby spread the cost of negotiating the contract fairly and equtaby all the employees who are benefting by it.
 In other words the Union trying to eliminate the chs eers response to the wishes of the Union members who fed up with carrying the burden for the tghtwads
 The Union is bound and determined that there will be paid holidays vacation benefits for workers who do not sign up with the Union we'll be that this s will make the whole contract before the War Labor Board in Washington.
 The situation could easily be corrected if workers will fully cooperate with Union representatives in the current membership drive This issue of The Sub contains pte list of representatives by departments and all workers who anxiousy awaiting the contract benefits should contact the Union representatives immediately.

The news of victory came last week when the Company requested the Union to come in for a confer" ence and announced at the confer. ence that it had changed its posi- tion and was willing to have sub- committee of the Union start im- mediately to negotiate the ques- tion of an incentive system direct ly with O. P. Robinson, General Manager, while other negotiations continued on the remainder of the Union proposals.
 Originally the Company had taken the attitude that it would handle the matter of an incentive system itself without Union partt- cipation and without any time lim- it for submission. It practically told the Union it was going to work out the incentive system it. self and would submit it when 10 was good and ready to do 30. Thereupon the Union broke off ne- gotiations.
 Just prior to the change of posi- tion by the Company, the Union Executive Committee had voted to send notices to the National Labor Relations Board, the National War Labor Board and the Secretary of Labor in accordance with the pro- visions of the Smith-Connally Act officially known as the War Labor Disputes Act The law requires that when notice is given by 6 Union of 8 labor dispute which threatened to seriously interrupt war production, then thirty days after notice is given secret ball. lot is to be conducted by the Na- tional Labor Relations Board of all employees to determine whether or not they wish to strike. This is iu- tended to give the United State Government an opportunity to take over any important war plant to avoid a strike. If the Company had not yielded to the Union in this dispute, Union leaders are certain that if the election by the Nation al Labor Relations Board showed that a majority of the workers were supporting the Union then the Navy would be ordered by the President to take over the plant
