Fall Styles

HOLLYWOOD TREES never
get red in the face in the fall,
but stars seem 10 know when
to turn to new clothes. Rosa
lind Russell has a shaggy dia-
mond aster to pin on her lapel
and one OF those new pointed
shoulder capes in mink. Gen.
eral shape of these capes Is
like a pup-tent worn sideways!
That very low-necked black
dress you thought you could
wear all fall should be
''weather-conditioned" with an
ascot like Greer Garson's. She
even wears hers with dinner
dresses. The fabric is tiger
lily-pink satin, made double,
and pinned down with her IA
nous diamond cats eye. The
fiopped-over ends fall almost to
the waist.
Joan Crawford has an anus
ing new set of two danger"
clips that everyone asks about.
One is a little diamond arrow
like a road sign pointing This
way out" and the other is a
ruby and diamond lantern.
Mrs. Gary Cooper threads
white satin ribbon through her
coronet braid and pins three
petti-gardenias at the side.
That's just fancy Hollywood
name for gardenias with the
petals removed until you get
flower. Mrs. Gary has diamond
ear-clips that same shape.

Protect Hands

MANY PEOPLE hate to use
pairing knives for any length of
time because any one looking
at their hands can tell just
what they have been doing. This
is particularly annoying when
giving dinner, coming to the
table with the marks of the
pressure Of the pairing knife
certainly does not enhance the
beauty Of any homemaker.
Try this trick and keep your
hands soft and smooth. Cut a
cork in half, put a slit in one of
these. Slip the knife into this
slit and it will be protected from
coming in contact with your
finger,

CIO Backs
School Levy

Delegates to the Toledo In
dustrial Union Council in theiR
meeting of October 26 voted
unanimously to endorse the two
mill renewal tax levy for the
Toledo School District.
Tom Burke. TIUC executive
secretary pointed out that the
levy was not a new tax, but SIM
ply a renewal of the same levy
which has been in force for
many years. Consensus of the
delegates was that the levy
should oe given complete back
ing in order to maintain Toledo
schools.
Failure of the tax levy to pass
would result in serious handi-
cap for Toledo schools neces-
stating their closing for many
weeks. All CIO members are
urged by the Council to vote
for the tax levy.

Winning of an NLRB conducted
election by the UAW-CIO last
month at the Mc.eor Motor Car
Co. of this city marks the second
victory marked up by the Auto
Workers in the Miami Valley in
a few months.
Results of the election in
which the UAW won the plant

two majority were as follows:
For the UAW-96. Against the
UAW-61.

S o m e t h i n G new, nothing
would have been thought of
the arbitrary stand taken by
company management; but it
was pointed out by plant en-
ployees that collections have
been made for the Red Cross,
War Chest, Christmas presents
for foremen, flower fund, sick
employees, athletic fund and
other major and minor causes.
Schultz St..tement
President Melvin Schultz of
Local IL, UAW-CIO pointed out
that the collection was not taken
up until the union had sought to
negotiate with the company for
the privilege. He said Every
plant with which Local IL has
relations permits monthly col
lections for the plant service
men. Some of them even have
weekly collections. If the other
81 plant managements can per-
nit us to do this, see no reason
why Plaskon should take such
an arbitrary stand"
In seeking to defend itself, the
Plaskon management weakly
pointed out that it "misunder-
stood" the collection and thought
that since a Christmas box had
already been sent to the en-
plcyees that there was no need
for further collections.
Send Boxes Monthly
In reply to the weak defense
of the Plaskon management, Mr..
Schultz stated that lit is the
practice in Local IL shops to
send monthly gift boxes contain
ing cigarettes, razor blades,
handkerchief and other articles
useful to our men ip the forces.
