NEW ROOM

Good news, which those who
attend our Unit meeting already
know. We now have our own
Unit room at Local IL head
quarters. In room 205 we will
keep our records and files and
have a place for the committee
to meet.
If you know of any new en-
ployes S Jig II t h m u o in the
Union. We will welcome them
and they will be glad to come
to us, particularly when they
find out what kind of a deal
the company has put out in the
past and is still trying to put
over.
Management is putting on
drive to break labor. We must
therefore make all efforts to
protect ourselves. Unless we do,
we lose all that we gained in the
last few years. A strong, active
union means that our standard
of living will be held at high
level. And what worker isn't
worth that.
We can succeed in our shop if
we will perSevere. Ford was
tough, too, but he now has a
UAW union in his shop with
contract and all the things
which Ford said he would never
give. Even Crawford isn't bigger
than Ford, and even if he is, we
are still the UAW. Let's not for
get that. Crawford and Thomp-
son Products are not bit
tougher than some of the other
babies who have been forced to
admit that the worker is hui
man being and has rights. He
can be taught to respect us even
if he doesn't like us.

White ~Collared
Worker Items
By J. b. Bishop,
GREETINGS:

GREETINGS:
Hi, Friends and White Collar
Workers of Toledo. l hope you II
enjoy reading this column, which
is written by a white collar
worker.
We hope this will become
permanent column in the JOUR
NAL, because we believe the
UAW thinks the white collar
workers are worth fighting for.
If the UAW wasn't for us, we
wouldn't have won the election
at Spicer's, would we? That was
a great victory by which at least
some of us can escape from the
petty tyrannies of management
SPICER LEADS
Spicer white collar workers
have lead the way here in To-
Iedo. Despite the yelled threats
of loss of jobs, pay cuts and 9TH
er managerial nastiness, we got
up on our hind legs and asserted
ourselves. The office workers
showed their deep resentment OF
the treatment they have receiv-
ed. They reared back in tne
traces and kicked over the old
apple cart.
Wonder why they hire office
workers if they are SO unim-
portant? Could the firm continue
without us? But ask for an in
crease in your pay as a rugged
and disorganized individualist
and see where it gets you.
Maybe some of the timidity
which office workers have
shown in the past will disappear.
now that we have a redblooded
union behind us. Perhaps we
will quit regarding ourselves as
well dressed lackeys to stuffed
shirts and get ourselves decent
living wages as befit decent men
and women.
Don't be modest, you white
collar salary slaves. You are i'm
portant, not only to the COM
pany, but in the political, eco
nomic and spiritual life of your
country. You can earn your self
respect and respect of others by
asserting yourselves. Cast away
your fears. Look the boss in the
eye as an equal instead of
subservient lackey. You are now
a member of a great union.

yourself explaining to Bill,

National
Supply
MESA BUNK

1t looks as though we are be-
ing treated to the same malarkey
from the MESA which some
other Toledo shops have receiv-
ed. The same cowardly, scurri-
lous, filthy and venomous poison
which the MESA has become re-
noWned for is still on tap, appar-
emily from some brain suffering
from intellectual halitosis.
Not only does the MESA sneak
around seeking memberships
like a thief in the night, but;
worst of all, it tries to create
membership by methods which
would do credit even to Herr
Goebels. That reminds us that
Matt Smith, secretary for the
MESA, thinks so little of this
country that he has never be-
come a citizen.
Unions like the MESA, which
seek to create membership by
name calling and other dema-
gogic appeals are not worth
while. Not only do they seek to
stimulate membership by lying
and connivery, but they lack the
intestinal fortitude, the CUTS, to
come out in the open.
LICE
When the Wagner Act became
law, it gave the good unions and
bad ones the same rights. We
have a good union now. despite
all the dirt which the MESA Is
dishing up to fool the gulllole.
The MESA reminds us little
of a condition which seems to
overcome our boys in the armed
services. (Matt Smith doesn't
care about the boys in the armed
services -or he wouldn't pull a
strike at the slightest proVoca-
tion.) Our soldiers, for some
reason or other, seem to pick up
lice. But they go through a de-
lousing process which kills OFF
these little pests.
So it is with the MESA. We
can endure them until we get to
delouse ourselves. We don't have
to keep them.
Frankly, we wonder if the
company isn't just having the
time of its life watching the
MESA try to destroy the unity
of our shop by their efforts to
make us believe that the UAW-
CIO is the worlds worst union,
while the MESA is Gods little
gift to the workers of America.
If this were true, you may be
certain that the MESA would be
the worlds largest union instead
of the worlds smallest and
lOuSleSC.
Don't be mislead by the vi
cious propaganda of the MESA.
Don't be gullible. Remember the
MESA is trying to divide us and
ask yourself the reason why.
After the war, Matt Smith and
his gang of would-be union bust
ers will fade like the snow in the
hot sun. In the meantime, re-
member soldiers get lice, but
don't have to keep them. We can
rid ourselves of these little pests
very easily. Let's do it.

CONVERSATION

One of the best examples of
good unionism that we have
found, occurred the other day.
It happened in conversation
between two men. We convey
this conversation in part to you.
One of the gentlemen while
talking of unions, remarked to
the other in an offhand way,
"Say Bill, how much does it
cost you for dues in your local?"
Three dollars month, :"
came the reply in double quicl'
time, and l get no satisfaction
concerning my grievances"
The first fellows mouth fell
open as he said, why, l belong
to Local IL UAW-CIO. only
pay one dollar a month and get
twice my moneys worth in
service" He continued by ex-
planning how his grievances
were always taken care of
promptly by his steward. IF
my steward cannot settle my
trouble, he calls upon my exc
cutive committeeman; who, in
turn, can relay it to the COM
mittee as a whole. Then the
committee, if they deem it ad-
visable, can utilize the services
of Local IL. Somewhere along
these channels, my grievance is
settled to my satisfaction. This
is the action that | get when |
have troubles and this is the
service that is rendered for the
small sum of sixty cents a
month which is all that is left
after the per capita tax is paid
to the international Union.
Going a little further he add
ed. Bill, l am proud of my
Union. | would be willing to pay
more dues than / do if it would
help to guarantee the continu-
ance of the benefits it gives to
me now.
During his conversation, TINS
same gentleman, mentioned the
fact that he would be willing
700, to donate towards the build
e.g of an auditorium in the rear
\ X the present hall, that he had
hard was being considered. 1t
Aeould be place where he
could take his wife and family
TO dance and enjoy other enter
tainment.
GOOD EXAMPLE
That kind of a man, we be-
lieve. the kind who adVertlses
his union and its functionings,
is one of the best examples OF
what a good union member
should be.
This man is just one member
out of the thousands who be-
long to Local IL who have the
same views. We are glad that
we can boast of such loyalty.
We wonder how many of you
attend Local II meetings on the
second Friday of every months
at 8 o. m. There, the sixty cents
