Shop Talk
Brandt

The Union agreed to reopen wage
negotiations at Brandt Cabinet
Works upon the Company's promise
that these negotiations would be
handled by their president Colonel
III. Hopes, who is presently on
duty with the War Department
in Washington. The committee
agreed to the company's request
that these negotiations take place
on Monday. May 7th. since Colonel
Hopes job is such that he is
only free on week-ends. We sim
cerely hope that the Company and
the Union will be able to negotiate
q satisfactory wage agreement by
which both parties will benefit.

Vacations In
All CIO
Plants

Now that spring is here,
bringing warm weather with it,
workers thoughts turn to paid
vacations. Robert j. Brylke,
CIO Field Representative, on
examining the list of the thir-
teen CIO shops in the Hagers-
town area, said, Tt is gratify-
ing to see that all the CLIO
shops In this area have won
paid vacations.
Mr.. Brylke pointed out that the
Fairchild. Maryland Fabricating
Company and Victor Products
workers will all receive two weeks
vacation this summer, and Brandt
Cabinet Works has established a
vacation week of 40 hours. In some
OF the shops where new contracts
have been signed. at least one
week or more vacation pay have
been secured through the efforts
Of the CIO.
1t must be very embarrassing
to the AFL In a shop like Jami-
son where they have had u closed
shop contract for 25 years and
the workers are still not eligible
to receive vacations with nay.

One of the Brandt boys who
keeps his head above the clouds Is
Jesse Pyles, to whom goes the
Unions award for originating the
smoking period idea in the shop.
Jesse told us the other day that
any smoking period which does
not allow man to smoke at least
half a pack of cigarettes at one
time should be increased. We will
let Colonel Hopes know how you
feel about 1t, Jesse, and he may
go you one better; the Colonel
may even buy you pack.
