President Duffy Promises To
Attend Anniversary
Dinner In April

Trenton, n. J-Because of the coal
shortage Local A. held rather chilly
session that warmed up considerably
as several heated discusions@get under
way on the floor. 1t affords us fellows
here in the East quite bit of amuSe-
ment to read in The POtters Herald
an advertisement that Fergie of the
Kind Coal Co. says, nov is the time
to buy coal" Here in Trenton the Coal
Companies advertise in the papers not
to bother them.
Tom Dennis, chairman of our shop
committee reported on their meeting
with the management last Thursday.
Ring setter casting may he discon-
tinued if method of placing is salts
factory, the price of casting remains in
abeyance. The urinal stall price and
bonus rate was settled and approved
by the local.
The management reserves the right
to place a man on any casting job that
utiliZeS the best of his ability. This
fact doesn't seem to be realized by
some of our members who expect the
union to intercede for them and place
them in our SO-called best jobs. Our
advice to these fellows is to attend
their meeting regularly, liye up to the
shop rules, see that the other fellow
does, and fight to make the job that
they are now on the best job. .
We were pleased to receive Il letter
from President Duffy acknowledging
an invitation to our forty-tifth ami
versary dinner on April Is. He will do
everything in his power to be present
and we look forward to his talk on the
occurs in June of this year.-O.C. ~.

3-Yeur Anti-Lubor
Suit Back In Court
$l.750.000 Libel Suit Brought
BY Company Against
Union In l94l

San Francisco (FP).-The 3-year-
old case of the International Ladies'
Garment Workers Union (AFL) vs..
Gantner 4 Mattern Co. knitwear
manufacturers. is again in the public
eye with announcement by the I. s.
supreme court that the San Francisco
superior court has jurisdiction to hear
the $1,15O,0OO libel suit brought by the
company against the union in 1941.
The suit arose from a strike of
Building Service Employees Interna-
tiOnal Union (AFL) against the com
pany in 1910. ILGWU members re-
fused to pass the picket line and We're
refused unemployment when the strike
was over Gantner 4 Mattern claimed
that literature distributed by the
ILGWU pichets who ever since have
patrOled the plant was libelOuS.
The supreme court ruling upholdS Il
1913 decision of Judge Elmer f.
Robinson that the union has many
characteristics of a large industrial
business organization and therefore
should be subjected to similar respon-
sibilitieS." The lLGWU appealed this
judgment, which was confirmed by the
appellate court.
The unions claim was that the Cali
fOrna courts could not hear the case
because the union was Il New York
organization and that international
officers. named in the libel suit. were
not responsible for local leaflets.
The case is now remanded to the
San Francisco courts.

At this meeting, presided over by
Chairman James q. Eardley, with the
assistance of VIM. HeberStreit, repre-
senting the manufacturers, it was
fOrcefully brought out that local plants
are now operating at Il big dlSadvan-
tage because of the loss of men and
women who have gone into the armed
forces or into war production plants.
The problem is made more difficult be-
cause of absenteeiSm of employees who
remain at work here or their failure to
work the full forty hours per week.
For this q number of causes were as
signed and others are known to exist.
Plants can't operate protitably after
their production is, for any reason, re-
duced below 75 per cent Of their nor
mai capacity. There is danger that
this point will be reached if way Is
not found to bolster aup the line anI
find replacements from some source
for men who will yet be called into

informally at the meeting, no decision

Bond Concert

A highly appreciative audience
greeted the first spring concert of
the band last Thursday evening in
the Junior High auditorium. The
band, uniformed in the Blue and
Gold OF the Libh-, High School,
made a fine appearance on the
stage. This effect was heightened
when Director Skakoon lead the
group through varied program of
marches, waltzes, and dances, con-
Guiding with medley of patriotic
tunes.
The Libbv band has come to be
taken as a matter of course by those
who have seen and heard them reg
ularly. But strangers seldom fail to
comment .favorably on the appear
ance and the ability of the organiza-
ton. Under the leadership of Mr..
Skakoon, the band plays with a
confidence and precision that comes
from diligent practice and Compel
ent directing. Graduation will leave
Ia number of first chairs vacant this
spring but Mr.. Skakoon has an in
creasing number of young players
who are preparing themselves for
the first" band. The Pep Band has
now become as much q part of the
basketball season as the referees,
whistle, and the spectators keep an
eye on Skakoon's Circus Band"
with his battery of vigorous slide
trombones. 1t is hoped that the
band may soon begin outdoor con-
certs to last through the summer.

Less Paper For Packages

Fewer package Wrappings will be
available for retail shoppers this
year, according to WPB. Shortage
of wood pulp for paper making will
not permit normal supply There
will be enough bags for assorted
groceries, WPB said, if housewives
save these bags and take them back
to stores for their own reuse. WPB
also advised that the shopping bag
with handles must be used many
times to substitute for individual
