Printing Trades Unions
Smash Number One
Enemy In Elections

The R. R. Donnelley printing con-
Germ got another in long series of
setbacks when, in the last week of
November, some 1000 to 2,100 eligi-
BILE employees voted in NLRB cleo
tions. Four out Of five participating
unions have already been declared
winners.
The largest voting unit was in the
pressrooms, where the employees chose
the international Printing Pressmen
and Assistants Union as their bargain
ing representative. Rotogravure en-
ployees voted for the international
Photo Engravers Union by majority
of better than three to one. Other win
ners were the Amalgamated Litho-
graphers of America in the offset de-
partment, and the International AS
sociation of Machinists in the main
tenance department.
In the mailing rooms the outcome is
still in doubt, pending decision on some
4O-odd challenged ballots. Of those ac-
cepted by both sides 83 were for the
union and 106 against.
Officials of the Printing Trades
Unions expressed themselves as de-
| lighted with the fine showing made
by the union employees. The Donnel-
ley company used almost every known
scheme to intimidate the voters, lead
ing them to believe that unionism
would lower their wages and woulo
further impoverish them with "high'
dues. "Vote No-Save Your Dough"
was the heading on a last-minute cir.
cular signed by the concern. Numer

Hamilton Soldier
Decorated In Italy

With the Fifth Army, Italy.-Ser-
geant Ellard King of Hamilton, Ohio,
recently was awarded the Bronze Star
for heroic achievement in combat on
the Italian front.
He served with tank battalion of
Nv Army Corps, a unit of Lieutenant
General Mark w. Clark's Fifth Army
King and companion ran 200 yards
through heavy German mortar and an
ti-tank fire, as shells burst within DC
yards of them, to rescue their pla-
toon leader, who had been seriously
wounded when his tank was knocked
out. They administered first aid to the
wounded leader and carried him to
nearby medical aid men for further
treatment.
Kings mother, Mrs. Ethel King

Get Your Social
Security Card

Timely advice for the many tenn
porary workers who will be hired for
the Christmas shopping season was
offered today by Miss Mary A. Lloyd,
manager of the Hamilton, Ohio Of
fee Of the Social Security Board.
"a considerable number of these
workers." she said, "will be working
for the first time at a job covered by
old-age and survivors insurance. Ev-
eryone who is about to take such a job
should get a social security card
promptly and show it to his-or her
employer when he starts working.
The employer should copy the work
er's name and account number ex-
actly as they appear on the card, for
he must have this information when
he makes out his tax return for social
security, some time in January, for
the last quarter of 1914.
"Workers of all ages are covered
by the Social Security Act" Miss
Lloyd pointed out. "That means boy
of 16 who works part time must have
an account number card, or man OF
woman over 65 who may may have
retired and has not been working fol
years. Every employer-of one per-
son or more-is required to deduct the
one-percent social security tax from
the wages of each person in his en-
ploy, whether the work is full-time OF
part-time. Workers who have lost
their social security cards should OBJ.
tain duplicates before taking holiday
jobs. Those who have changed then
names-particularly women workers
may obtain duplicate cards bearing
their present names"

in front of the plant in Coast Guard
Reserve uniform urging the employees
"to give the servicemen a break" by
voting the union, until he was ordered
by Coast Guard Commandant to take
off the uniform.
Donnelley has been nonunion since
1907 when the plant completed series
of lockouts. In the intervening years
it has fought unionism with such wea-
pons as injunctions, yellow-dog con-
tracts, espionage, intimidation and dis
elimination. Donnelley print Time,
Life, Readers Digest and Pathfinder,
catalogs for Montgomery Ward and
other mail-order houses, and scores of
telephone directories. It is the largest
nonunion printing plant in the world,
with the possible exception of Axis
dominated Europe.
