FAIR
ENOUGH
BY Westbrook
Peg er

MARK SULLIVAN has been
AVA pointing out the similarity
of the. cases of Montgomery
Ward and John L. Lewis, both
of whom refused to sign con-
tracts covering union relations.
and the dissimilarity of their
treatment by President Roose-
velt.
Montgomery Ward was seized
by the army and Sewell Avery
was carried out of his office,
but, although Lewis, by his re-
fusal, had tied up war produce
ton, as Montgomery Ward had
not, nothing was done TO him or
to his Union.
This is interesting, but there
is better illustration of immu-
nifty in a recent dispute in
indianapolis betw We en- Uncle
Daniel Tobin's teamsters' union,
a political ally of the New Deal.
and II girls employed 10 address
his monthly magazine, The In
ternational Teamster."
This magazine is actually Mr..
Tobin's own bugle. He uses II
10 glorify himself and TO ingrati-
ate himself with the White
House, from which he has re-
ceived flattering personal hon
ors.
THE girls complained that
Il they were not getting over
time pay and that they were
required TO make up for time
taken off on Labor Day and
Christmas.
So Uncle Dams matters Joined
the Mailers' union and, in good
legal order, their business agent
asked the teamsters' union 70
sign a contract just as the Go
asked Avery 10 sign.
In Avery's case there was
doubt that the union actually
did represent the workers, but
no such question was raised in
regard 10 Uncle Dams bevy OF
mail clerks.
The transfers union refused
10 negotiate al all and the
Mailers' Union with the support
of the printers, declared the
transfers magazine 70 be UNI
fair TO organized labor.
Inamuch as Uncle Dan is the
editor, this meant that the
president OF one OF the biggest
American unions, a member OF
the executive council OF the
ALL and one Of President
RooSevelt's advisers and conf
Dental agents in labor policy,
was an enemy Of labor.
TIVE teamsterS' executive
L board met last winter. az
usual, in Miami. where a man
sion is maintained for their
comfort.
On the pretext Of saving
white paper. Of which the maya
zine is entitled 10 its regular
quota, the board authorized
Uncle Dan 10 suspend publica-
ton temporarily and use other
means Of publicity.
BY suspending. Uncle Dan
would be enabled 10 fire the
girls who had joined the union.
The mailers. incidentally,
were charging that DR.. Tobin
was trying 10 make them join
the Stenographers and Typists
Union.
This would have been a Seri-
Gus violation Of the Wagner Act,
which Mr. Tobin has often
praised and invoked, in that he
would have been interfering
with their right TO choose their
own affiliation,
TIfE magazine did not sus-
pend. however. But when
the April issue came out the
3 mailers' union refused 10 handle
IL and Mr. Tobin fired the girls.
This crisis occurred Just at
the time Of the trouble al Mont
gomsry Ward and, after a little
public opinion had been gener-
ated in the indianapolis Times,
Uncle Dan began 10 negotiate.
An agreement was reached in
two days but the girls trans
ferred from the employ Of the
teamsters union 10 that of the
printing firm which prints the

Christmas Gard
Decorations

LET YOUR Christmas and
New Year cards do double-duty
this season. Use the cards first
as decorations in the living room
by standing them on a fiat sur
face like the mantlepiece, piano
top, or china rail. They add a
CHEEKY, friendly yuletide note to
the room and, better, greet you
daily from those who sent them.
Then, after the holidays. in
stead of saving or discarding
these greeting cards, cut out the
colorful Scenes and figures and
paste them in a medium-sized
scrapbook for the children.
Cards, received during the
whole year, can likewise be
utilized this way.-The scrap
books make excellent gifts for
the children's ward in your local
hospital. Youngsters love to pore
over the colorful illustrations by
the hotIr.

Decorate Table

NEED SOMETHING TO deco
rate your Christmas dinner
table, or perhaps the buffet?
Get some bright red apples,
shine them with bit of wax or
lard, core them, cut off the
bottom so they will have a firm
base on which TO stand. Then
put your candles in them and
place in the midst of a wreath
or sprigs of holly. This will
lend a festive air TO any table
and is inexpensive as well.

She didn't answer that, but thought hard.
Darn it, even big male had to have place
to sleep. She sighed There wasn't hotel
room in town available, nor an auto camp.
Soldiers wives with kids had been coming in

been driving her ragged. She was hoarse from
pleading with friends who had guest rooms to
let these women use them. This volunteer job
as Travellers Aid was going to get her down

she felt like a fox with hounds after her.

appreciation to the personnel of the Air Transport
Command for their cooperation.

from TWAS domestic operation, the Interconti-

flights, and flown more than Is, 100000 miles with
record of regularity equal to that of any domestic

of pride to them their industry and the nation they
serve.

Unarmed themselves, they have encountered

Although hcivians trained for years in the peaceful
art of domestic commercial flying, they too have
had their planes riddled by gunfre : and gott them

This important and faithful work of pilots, crew

helped to give America and her Allies dependable
