On The
Surface
BY Ralph Thompson
By Ralph Thompson

I think all of us should take a
little time off from the usual
goings on and thank God that
we have had an opportunity to
place our ballot for those whom
we think are better qualified
to perform the duties of our
group. We hope the man we
have elected, Franklin d. Roose-
welt, will do the job that is best
for all concerned.
Just few words to tell the
membership that the Victory
Parade" was a great show. l
only hope that there will be
more of them in the future. Con-
gratulations to Dick GoSser and
his staff for a good job we'll
done.
The thought that came to me
as a result of the movie war
films show last Tuesday,
doesn't set so well. We do not
disagree with stepping up war
production, but at the same time,
we believe that management
could be more cooperative in
stead of provocative. Entirely
too much time is lost in getting
the jobs under way. The time
lost by welders because they are
not permitted to weld all types
of metal for a difference of three
cents per hour in base rates.
Give it little thought Frank.
WHAT'S BUZZIN CUZZIN
Lloyd Rimple's idea of a stub
finger is short story. So is his
finger.
Earl Kleinsmith must have
hit jackpot. He came to work
this week in a complete new
garb. Hey Bud, do them thar
clothes carry the union label?
Ted Benedum has a great
idea on the basketball team next
summer. Lots of luck in ad-
vance Ted.
Elmer Winkleman has the
Jump on most of the Buckeye
boys. The Wolverine has been
picking pheasant out of his teeth
for the past week.
Vern Lake wishes to COM
promise with the burners and
welders. We think your on the
right track Vern. How's about
it boys?
Lou Rabarge seems to be hav-
ing trouble with that "guber"
ball of his on the alleys this

add you attend the unit meet
Ag Friday night, November the
3rd? If not, you missed fine
talk by our brother Dick Gosser
on the MESA situation. We
know Brother Dick is right. A
great many members never be-
longed to tried and true union
slike ours before, and a great
many of the old members turn
ed out, as it reminded them that
they have been missing to many
meetings and have been making
a few old timers and a number
of the newer members who be-
lieve in the philosophy of the
UAW-CIO carry the burden.
Let's all vow that we are going
to be burden carriers from now
on and stand squarely behind
our leaders and the executive
committee, and help build our
union to untold heights.
Brother Dicks first entry in
the entertainment field Monday
night, November the 9th at the
Civic Auditorium was a huge
success. Everybody agreed that
they saw show that was worth
twice the money they paid tor
tickets. Everything was on the
up and up from the peanut bat
ties before the curtain went up,
to the cider and doughnuts dur
ing the intermission and all the
fine acts on the stage. We hope
we can have many more happy
evenings like this as it Will help
ali of us get better acquainted
with our brothers and sisters IN
other shops.

FOremen Warned
about Asking
Questions

WASHINGTON, November s
(LPA)-Foremen can get some
good advice on how to avoid
unions charges of unfair labor
practices if they will follow the
advice of the Dept. of Labor in
a pamphlet just off the presses,
''The Foreman's Guide to Labor
Relations"
"You will be on pretty firm
ground" the pamphlet tells fore
men, If you observe these three
points:
81. Do not try to discover
whether or not any of your en-
ployees are members of a union.
"2. Do not discuss union
matters with your employees,
nor express an opinion for or
against a union or unionism.
This goes while you are off
duty as we'll as on duty.
"3. In making any decision
regarding an employee, such as
promotion, discipline, merit rat
ing, reclassification etc, disre-
gard completely the fact of his
union membership or activity" !"
