II I'm bit ELUSIVE in my thanks

you'll know the reason for my hear

had q helluva good time read
ing the recent history Of Cumber-
lands Clio and Of all my friends
and buddies back home. Believe me.
I lost my "bulkhead stare" quickly.
From all I've read in the Western
Maryland CLIO News, Clio labor took
many steps to insure its whole
hearted support of the second front
against the Nazis. Now that the In
vasion Of Europe Is on full blast 1
am sure that CLIO labor will con-
tinue giving the men hitting the
beaches Its full and continued back
ing. Those men need every bit of
backing.
Every place I go I bump into
union men and wonderland
they're usually the ones who
know what's going on. In this
hospital ward, for example. the
nurse Is q member Of an ALL
federal union I'm st. Louis and the
medical cOrpsman q former Sec
rotary of q CLIO local Of Retail,
Wholesale and Department Store
Workers in st. Louis. The Seabees
are literally full Of union men,
bers, and there are q lot of Sea-
bees here.
So 1t all adds up to the fact that
union members. CLIO and ALL, are
all over the globe fighting this war.
IT'S hard TO believe that there are
many union men left in the States
what with so many Of them here
and in Europe.
Once again. thanks for copies Of
the CLIO News-the nurse Is read
ing them now. / hope the union
people of Western Maryland give ss
much support to the CLIO News as
they are giving In many ways to

granted an interview for the pur-
pose Of negotiating q working
agreement.
In the first interview, the gen.
eral discussion centered on matters
dealing with the procurement Of
more orders for tires, or increased
sales with the object Of providing
more work for employees. At the
time of negotiations the plant was
working a short week at times, and
the management cherished the idea
that recognition of the union, to.
gether with a signed agreement on
wages and working conditions,
would permit the firm TO use a un-
ion label on its product. From the
viewpoint Of the management. this
alone could be used to advantage
throughout the industrial East as
sales talk. Tentative wage rates
were discussed, seniority rights.

committee left the plant, firm in
the belief that a union contract
would be a reality in a matter of
days.
But 10 and behold, outside in
fiuences entered the picture at q

II was suggested that the local
union should 20 slow before sign
ing q contract. These spokesman
stressed the wisdom Of waiting
until the Akron group took some
action, or negotiated q national
contract for all rubber workers In
the entire nation.
Accordingly. the contract COM
mittee was given a desis: order. and
the local union sent three delegates
TO a convention of rubber workers
in Akron. Later came the labor
split, and the contract died.

Fred w. BuchhoIz, Sportsman
And Owner of Occidental, Dies
Found Dead in Bed:
Funeral to Be Held
At ! PM. Saturday

Frederick w. Buchholz, 46, pro-
prietor of the Hotel Occidental, 14l1
Pennsylvania avenue NV, and
prominent in the Capitals sports
circles, died of a heart attack yes
terday in his hotel room.
He complained of feeling i'll early
in the evening, called for ice water
about 2:30 am, and was found dead
in bed few minutes later by a
bellboy.
Funeral services will be at l pm.
Saturday at Concordia Lutheran
Church, Twentieth and G streets
NV, with burial in Prospect Hill
Cemetery. His body Is at Gawler's
funeral home, 1756 Pennsylvania
avenue NV.
Son of Gustav Buchholz, who
came from Germany to the United
States in the late 80s, MIR. Buchholz
was born in New York City and
came to Washington at an early
age. He attended primary schools
here, Charlotte Fall School and
was graduated from Georgetown
University Law School in 1924.
Founded by Father.
The Occidental Hotel. around
which the life of both father and
son centered, was founded by Gus
following his earlier employment at
the Willard Hotel. The place be-
came famous for its cuisine and was
the gathering place for many no
tables from official, diplomatic and
sports circles. Presidents Coolidge
and Harding and the Prince OF
Wales, now Duke of Windsor, were
guests there. Lou Gehrig, noted
Yankee ballplayer, a cousin Of Fred
Buchholz, often visited the estab-
ishment.
The restaurant which father and
son made famous was originally a
hotel known as the Thompson
Owen House, at 1913 Pennsylvania
avenue. When Gus Buchholz took
1t over in 1912 he leased from the
