TRACING CALLS

Upon investigation, namely,
tracing long distance calls to
the Board, it was found that
Falvey had made the neces-
sary contacts and was respon-
sible for the Board having
been handed the company's
'hot potato"
II the whole mess Is aired,
il will be found that there
are others involved In the
deal. Cancellation was not
used, yet this department can
not be by-passed to get at GER
tification, according to estab-
lished practice. The War La
Dor Board fully understands
that this so-called case is not
properly a question to be de-
cided by it, and certainly must
have felt guilty in swinging
the deal, Mr.. Falvey himself
claims to be shielding some
one on the Board by not
divulging the name of the per-
son who was responsible for
this action which caused 7,100
workers to leave their jobs in
protest.
1t might be we'll to remind
the management that its SUI
perintendents and would be
executives are guilty of unfair
labor practice when they tres
pass within the boundaries of
a collective bargaining unit
by soliciting membership in a
rival labor organization, one
which has nothing to offer the

HOW CAN THEY
By
Clayton W..
Fountain

The COP platform says one
thing, but the daily papers,
which are nearly all for
Dewey, insist on popping off
from the other side of the
fence. Dewey himself blows
both hot and cold, and sounds
silly to say the least.
To begin with, the Republi-
can platform cussed out gov
ernment controls restricting
labor, and limited at a prom
Use of wage raises.
That sounded good, all
right. So we looked real close
ly to see if there was any fol-
low-up to the hint of a prom
ise of wage raises. If the big
boys were on the level, we
could expect the NAM to in
struct its members on WLB
panels to vote with the labor
members for few dimes
worth once in a while.
ALL IN VAIN
Of course, the COP stood us
up. There was no follow
through on the hint of a
promise of a wage increase.
Instead, when it was an
nounced in Washington that
FDR intended to let up little
on the Little Steel Formula"
the COP practically went nuts
with rage.
Editors and publishers have
been frothing at the mouth all
over the country ever since.
They have used up tons of ink
and paper shouting editorially
against the idea of wage in
crease.
1t is impossible, therefore,
on the face of it, to figure out
where the COP actually
stands on this wage business.
The platform does not sound
too terrible.
But the business boys-and
nobody can tell me that they
are not Republicans-sitting
on WLB panels are still
knocking down our demands
for wage increases.
And the Republican press is
scared silly for fear that the
Little Steel Formula will be
revised upward.
A SKIN GAME
The closer you look at it,
the more the COP campaign
takes on the appearance of a
skin game.
You get the feeling that
Dewey is fast talker in front
of a tent, and that the few
broken down laborites he has
hanging around are shills
planted to serve as come-ons.
But it is too long a time be-
tween kpots for any
worker who knows anything
to take a chance on this
racket.
All you have to do is size
the thing up for a while, and
you can see right through it.
You can see the COP plat
form, full of pie for the work
ers-or so it says. And you
can hear Dewey drooling as
he announces his intention of
extending the New Deal.
But, if you were to step up,
like a pumpkin, and put your
dough on the numbers, some
body would step on something
and the wheel would stop at
the wrong place.
A RACKET
That's the kind of a racket
it is; make no mistake about
that.
The Republican Party rep
re sents the industrialists,
bankers, landlords, and lot
of other aristocrats who live
by the sweat of other people S
brows and these babies
never yet gave up a nickle
without a fight.
So long as the industry
members of WLB panels con-
tinue to vote against wage
raises, you can be sure that
editors will uphold the Little
Steel Formula" in print
which means that the money
bag boys have not changed
their outlook on life.
All that high-sounding bunk
in the COP platform is just
so much bait for unwary
workers. And the CUFF thai
Dewey dishes out is simply
trimming for the bait.
The COP loves labor like
the wolf loved Little Red Rid
ing Hood.

What's
New!
By
Edward Duck
Educational
Director,
Local II
THE wonder BOY!

ne WONDER bO1
Some pretty slippery shena-
nigans on the part of vice
president James P. Falvey, of
the Electric Auto-Lite Com
pany boone nged and
slapped the young man and
his business associates right
smack on the schnozzola this
week.
Mr.. Falvey knew how to
push the proper button to get
the United States Cancellation
Service and the National War
Labor Board to help his cor
poration out of pretty smelly
mess at the Aviation Products
Division of Auto Lite.
But what this up and COM
ing industrial tycoon and legal
advisor didn't remember is
that there are ways and means
of catching up with people
who don't tell the truth and
who sneak around the back
way in order to accomplish an
end.
When the executive COM
mittee of the union requested
dismissal of five agitators who
were disrupting vital war pro-
duction and destroying har-
monious relations in the Avia-
ton Division, the management
demurred pretending to re-
quire sufficient time to think
it over"
Whereupon, without follow
ing the established grievance
procedure outlined in the
unions contract with the cor
poration, Mr.. Falvey pulled
strings to hasten the resident
conciliator and the proper
WLB officials into the picture
within less than 18 hours after
presentation of the grievance.
SOME SPEED
This sudden burst of speed
on the part of the Board is not
CONSTANT with its past per-
formance. Within five hours
after we first mentioned the
case in negotiations, | was
called by conciliation, and by
the Disputes Director of the
Cleveland Regional WLB, and
it was quite APPARENT that
someone had informed them
of the difficulty arising out of
our dismissal request. To top
it off, the telephone number
of the Auto-Lite committee
room is not listed in the tele-
phone directory, but these
gentlemen seemed to have no
trouble in reaching me via
this number. Who gave it to
them?
The following morning we
met with Mr.. Falvey and
other lesser lights of the Auto
Lite brain trust, and were
handed a letter (instead of the
answer which he had prom
ised us) which informed us
that the case had been certi-
fled through the Department
of Labor to the National WLB,
which in turn had transferred
our dispute" to the Cleve-
land Regional Board. Some
speed, eh what!
Mr.. Falvey emphatically
denied know ing anything
about the proceedings which
had caused our request to be
certified as a dispute, but in
sisted that the problem had
now become Board property"
and could not be acted upon.
The previous day he had very
smoothly informed the COM
mittee and myself that there
was no disput on the request,
and hinted that the matter
would be decided by the next
morning.

When pork sausage is to be pre-
served by quick freezing, omit the
salt, but add the other seasonings,
advises the New York State Ex-
pertinent Station. Studies at this
station to determine why sausage
becomes rancid more quickly than
pork itself led to the conclusion
that salt hastens oxidization in the
ground meat SO leads to rancidity
of the fat, but that spices like pep
per, sage, mace and ginger seem
to have the opposite effect of act
ually holding back <rancidity.
The station also reports that
ground pork should be frozen as
soon as possible after slaughter.

The large amount of utility beef
now on the market has caused
many housewife to ask about the
yellow color of much of the fat.
Meat scientists of the u. S. De-
partment of Agriculture explain
that a great deal of this beef is
CRASHED rather than granted.
The yellow color is largely caro-
tene from grass or other carotene-
rich feed the animal has eaten.
Carotene, called the precursor of
Vitamin A, is a yellow substance,

Therefore, yellow beef fat is likely
to be superior to white in food val

the ground in a mound, is easily
by fumigating. In the
evening, after the ants have re-
turned to the nest, a broom handle,
or hoe handle, is pushed down
into the center of the nest about
one and half to two feet. The
hole can be enlarged by moving
the handle back and forth.
Two or three tablespoons of
calsium cyanide or carbon disul-
fide are then poured into the hole,
and the next covered with an old
wash tub or with wet sacks or a
piece of canvas which will confine
the fumes to the nest. The entire
colony may destroyed with one
treatment, or it may be necessary
to repeat the treatment later.
Small black ants that are about
the lawn and live in tiny nests
in the ground can be killed by
using poison bats or small guam
titles of fumigant placed in the
nests, Smith concluded.

legumes and grains or grasses
fills this requirement, Hegnauer

legumes and grains or grasses
fills this requirement, Hegnauer
feels.
In Eastern Washington, legumes
and cereal crops are commonly
used, however, if rainfall is light,
cereals alone can be used.
incubation of the seed with the
proper bacteria is well worth the
time and effort, as it increases the
yield and protein content of the
feed, and helps carry the crop
through the winter. Heavy seed
ings also increase the stand, and
keep weeds under better control.
The crop can be used for pas
ture in the spring, or made into
hay later, or even put into the silo
for a succulent feed for late sum-
mer, fall or winter, Hegnauer
concluded, in pointing out the
variety of uses for fall forage
crops.
