DETROIT, Nov. 8 - (P -
Production in the motor assem-
bly, department at the Ford
Rouge Plant was stopped for
several hours yesterday because
of what management described
rs "horseplay" by unicnists and
the union termed a political
demonstration"
A Ford spokesman said eight
United Automobile Workers

made a coffin out of tar paper,
painted the name Dewey on all
sides and proceeded with a mock
funeral procession through the
building.
The spokesman said more than
900 assembly line employees
walked out after the eight had
been suspended, but production
was restored on the second shift.

ped from the rubble that was
Aachen and surrendered all
Nazi forces Internationally to
the Allies, the young American
officer who arranged the terms
in fluent German was 81
year-old Roseville man, Capt.
Erhard Dabringhaus.
And when Aachen's COM
mander, Col. Gerhardt Wick,
showed surprise at the perfect
German responses to his sur
render plea, Dabringhaus ex-
planned that his German should
be good:
He learned it at the knees OF
his parents, Gustav and Bertha
Babringhaus at their home IN
Essen, a comparatively short dis
lance from Aachen. Capt. Dab
ringhaus was fighting on home
ground.

Imperial Germany's industrial

MEANY DENOUNCES
SUICIDE POLICY OF
u. S. AIR INDUSTRY

Washington, D. C. A warning
against acceptance by the United
States of proposals for freedom of
the air" in the realm of postwar air
transportation was sounded by George
Meany, 'secretary-treasurer of the
American Federatlon of Labor.
Writing in the American Fedora
zionist, official monthly magazine of
the AFL, Mr.. Meany cited the grave
danger to American wage earners if
foreign competitors whose wage
standards are far below those existing
in this country are granted unlimited
use of the air space of the United
States.
The AFL official commended the re-
cent proposal of the Railway Labor
Executives Association that all
American flag international air serv-
ice be unified in one strong system,
under strict government supervision,
under strict government supervision,
and with opportunity for all Ameri-
can transport interests to be repre-
sented in it's ownership.
In labor's view, he said, "the near
disappearance of American flag ship
ping from the high seas is an unan-
swerable argument against both free
dom of the air and freedom of the
seas. If the extreme form of these So
called freedoms were in force, our sur
face ships might be driven even from
our coastal trade routes, and our air
ships from our own domestic sky
ways"
Foreign competition drove Ameri-
can bottoms from the high seas, Mr..
Meany wrote, because it was not
"free and fair" competition.
Foreign ship lines had two advant-
ages" he said, 'low wage levels and
government subsidies (and often cer-
tain monopolistic advantages). All
these advantages enjoyed by foreign
competitors will be even more domi-
nant features of international air
transport in the postwar period than
they were in prewar surface carrier
traffic.
'It is easy to understand why GER
tain foreign interests that profted SO
handsomely by the decline of Ameri-
can shipping under freedom of the
seas should be even more anxious to
get the United States committed to
policy of freedom of the air. But it
is not easy to explain or condone
Americans advocating policy which
all relevant experience and evidence
indicate is dangerous if not suicidal
for u.s."
The Butler County press. [volume] (Hamilton, Ohio) 1900-1946, 1944-04-14

do it and have it done again and
again. | am pleased with your clos
ing remarks, which are as they should
be, without any intended bossism, for
which l thank you"
l think this note is especially sig-
nificant because it reveals that union
workers who have fought long and
hard against the evils of bossism on
the job are not going to tolerate bos-
sism from the union on political ques-
tions. In the field of politics, every
American citizen is his own sovereign.
He is entitled to judge the record of
each political party, in accordance
with his good sense, and to vote ac-
cordingly.
The CIO Political Action Commit
tee, infested as it is with Communist
leaders of every tinge of Red, is
bound to fail when it seeks to commit
union members wholesale to a specific
political party or national candidate.
The AFL non-partisan political pol
icy wisely refrains from stepping
into such pitfalls. 1t limits it's endorse
ments to members of Congress, who
are judged upon their voting records
solely.
In this way the unity of the FEEDER
alton is protected from wreckage on
the rocks of partisan politics and the
loyalty Of the members of the FEEDER
alton, who want to be treated as free
American citizens and not as stooges,
is assured.

FACING
The
FACTS
With PHILIP PEARL

So many draft proposals are pop

days that, in trying to dispose of
them, wee feel almost as helpless as
the Nazi ack-ack gunners in the face
of repeated, mammoth air raids by
American and British bombers.
For instance, we learn that Eco

it's other companies to profit Of only

If this is to be the guiding rule for
conversion to peace-time production

indications to that effect-how in the
world are we going to induce business
people to expand their postwar pro-
duction facilities in hurry SO as to
provide jobs for ex-war workers and
ex-sOldlerS!
We assume that Mr.. Vinson was

GREEN ACCEPTS
AIR LEAGUE POST

New York City.-Thomas H. Beck,
president of the Crowell- Collier Pub
fishing Company and well-known
aviation enthusiast, announced that
AFL President William Green had
accepted membership on the Board
of Directors of the Civil Air Patrol
League.
This league, endorsed by President
Roosevelt, FBI Director J.. Edgar
Hoover and Gen. H. H. Arnold, COM
manding officer of the Army Air
Forces, seeks to develop continuing
interest among young people over
fifteen years in aviation and to afford
them elementary training in that
field. In his letter of endorsement, the
President said:
Continued and growing familiar
ity of our coming generations with
aviation and it's problems is of great
Importance to our national health and
security, both during the war and in
the peace to come. Our young people
are definitely aviation-minded. En-
couragement and development of this
interest through broadening this
training program is an important
work in which l wish you and your
associates every success"
The league is national, non-parti-
san, non-proft organization, which
will aid the Civil Air Patrol in all of
it's activities and which seeks to make
Ame rica first in the air.
