ployees who have been heard TO
ask: "What good is our union? ?
What are they doing for us?" 1t
might be good idea to take these
same employees on walk through
the plant. Let's start in the steel
shed. There they will see new glass
block windows being installed to
insure better lighting in a not too
cheerful department. Go into Dept.
AA. There you will find new
wind break inside the door--a
heretofore very cold spot. Look a
little further and you will notice a
complete new lighting system.
This is to name a few of the many
Improvements for which the union
is responsible and which was done
for your benefit.

WHY'S Seeing Eye

armed service. Denny is the boy
who takes his orchestra over to
the Moose and swings mean tune.
Many of the stewards have been
dubbed doc" since they passed out
those cold pills. Wonder if the
Wagner bill the medics are crying
about would permit that.
For an example Of real team
work, you should see them assem-
BILE the Jeep motors. It's really
something to see and shows one
of the reasons why we are win
ming the war.
Congratulations to our mule
drivers, who are resolved to drive
even safer in 1914.
It's a little late, and maybe we
said it before, but whether we said
it or not, it's worth saying again,
and that is-Happy New Year. Or
did | say that before. Well, let it
stand and that makes it doubly
sure.

Ply NEW YEAR

49, may be trifle late, but the
new year is still young enough for
us to wish all the readers of the
paper a Happy New Year.
We were surprised to see the
large number of WHY'S workers
who responded to the presidents
call to work if they were needed.
Although this meant giving up the
New Years celebration, there were
many who were willing to make
the sacrifice.
Miss Winkle, we understand, did
not get those circles under her
eyes rom USO activities, but from
worrying about her B.F., who is
on active duty. 10000 soddy.
That was a humdinger of a cele-
bration held in Dept. 322, but why
wasn't l invited. | just love to
stand under the mistletoe.
We understand that a shadow
his been placed on Harold Dence
of Dept. $50, to see what he does
with all his overtime pay. 1t
wouldn't be bad idea for the lad
to squander some of the dough in
the soldiers fund, Harold, or don't
you think they deserve that kind
of a break?
Denny Burchard, hard working
Zimmerman, has two sons in the
Toledo union journal. [volume] (Toledo, Ohio) 1942-current, 1944-01-07

(Brownie) Grandowicz? He was a
good friend to all of us and we
would like very much to hear from
him.
Hubert Nemire was home re-
Gently on furlough. We hope that
Hubert and all the rest of the boys
will be home before many more
months.
If Wesley will keep up the good
work we'll soon nave a decent
shower.
Despite his bum finger, Charles
Henry is working about as good
as ever.
Everybody says they had swell
time at the last party. It's too bad
everybody couldn't be there to en-
Joy themselves. We are also glad
to know that everybody had nice
Christmas and hope they will be
able to report the same about
Happy New Year, and we wish you
all Happy New Year, folks, and
still happier ones in the future.

of handling the Unit meetings. In
addition to being a good union man
John is swell guy with a genuine
smile that warns your heart. He's
like good whiskey-improves with
age. He grows on you. The longer
you know him, the better you like
him.
AROUND THE SHOP
Bill Snyder, in the machine re-
pair tool crib, is home from the
hospital. He is mending rapidly
and will soon be back with us.
Al Openshaw, Dept. SO, fire
man second class in the Navy, has
completed his boot training. AL re-
Gently visited the shop and looked
fit as fiddle. We wish al the
best Of luck.
Bob Johns, Dept. 36, reports his
new well has frozen only once this
winter. Happy pumping, Bob.
Ed Fitzgerald, son of our genial
secretary, writes from his Army
camp that he has just recovered
from pneumonia. He thanks all the
boys for his packages sent him
just before Christmas.
A certain we'll known hunter and
fisherman in Dept. SO, who simply
can't stand any cold air in the
shop, is looking for a partner to
go with him to northern Michigan
to spear pike through the ice. 1t
isn't cold up there, only 10 below
zero.
Rollie Stroehlein is recovering
from the thrill Of becoming father
of baby girl, and the bad luck of
broken arm. We're glad to see
you back on the job, Rollie.
Our New Years party and dance
was a great success. Everybody
seemed to have a swell time, and
if they failed to enjoy themselves
it must have been their own fault.
Thanks to George O'Henry and ev-
eryone else who helped make the
party live one. What we need is
more such parties, Ell?
IMPORTANT
Don't forget the next regular
Unit meeting, January 13 at l:3O
D. m. for the night shift, and 500
p. m. the same day. And very i'm
portant, don't miss the big bond
rally and dance at the Civic Audi
torium Saturday night, January 3.
You'll be surprised and you'll be
sorry if you don't go. Maybe you'll
win a bond for free.

Champion SparkIets

Agnes Rooster wishes to thank
the girls on the second floor for
remembering her on Christmas
day.
One Of the earliest celebraters
for the holiday season was Stella
silva, who brought some Of the
most delicious Christmas cookies!
Will we have to wait till next year
to get some more samples Of your
wonderful baking, Stella?
We see that John Byrd of az"
is back on the job after a session
with Old Man Flu. Take it easy
for a while, John.
It's Jack (Cookies) Robles in
Dept. B ever since is was found
out that he is keeping the electric
welder operators supplied with
those delicious cookies.
We wonder why certain gal
working on the electric welders
got so business like all Of sud
den the other day. Could it have
been because the boy friend hap
pened to be supply man right
then?
The boys in Dept. X are wonder
ing if Andrew Beczynski eats a
couple of lemons each morning for
breakfast. What's the trouble,
Andy? Can't you get the sour look
off your face once in a while and
give union member lift instead
of a push?
Through an error in last weeks
paper we mentioned V-type plugs
instead of Y-type plugs. Apologies
to the V-type girls.

AirWay
Airings

won't mention any names, but
several people had rather sore lips
for few days after Christmas. Is
that how your Christmas cheer af-
fected you?
For those who didn't attend the
Air-Way party of Dec. %, which
was sponsored by the employees: !:
Don't be misinformed. | can assure
you it was a good time and very
congenial gathering. Ollie Gozdow-
ski entertained with his various
impersonations of celebrities of
stage, radio and movie fame. They
all gave him a bi" hand because
they know he has big feet. By the
way, everybody left in orderly
manner and as far as is known
reached home safely.
Say, Myrtle, what happened 70
your pretty black stockings with
the fine clock-work and butter
flies up the side? They sure were
pips!
Many of US have spent busy
week doing inventory work. AS far
as the employees are concerned,
the only results were writer's
cramp and a befuddled mind.
Some time ago the executive
shop committee told the Unit body
at their regular meeting that they
had reached an agreement regard
ing supervision. 1t is that each su-
pervisor has one group to direct
and has no control over any other
group. This evidently has not been
made clear to a certain boss, for
he is still wandering around the
shop, picking on the employees.
What's the matter, have you for
gotten the days when you were
one of the boys? Better contact
the foreman if you dislike some
thing, remember he can handle
them much better than you.
1t is with profound and sincere
feeling Of gratitude that | wish to
thank Zig Lapinski for his splen-
did cooperation as vice chairman
of the Air-Way Unit.
Zig is leaving January 18th to
serve his country. Our best wishes
go with you, Zig.
Joe Mroz, Chairman.

First and most important, we

never.

Cameo Cd
Opener
BY Ted MOdrowski
START IT RIGHT

I
Now that we have left behind US
a rather troublesome year, with a
few successes sprinkled here aud
there, let's start this year right
and pile up our successes and
leave the troubles or those who
seek them. Too many people have
as yet failed to grasp the full
meaning of a union, and the very
minute they hear or see what some
crank reactionary has to say about
any labor organization they imme-
diately fall in line with them. To
realize our successes we must stop
this.
The NAM is not sleeping these
days-by no means. Wen even
venture to say they are staying up
nights devising methods of dis
rupting the union, not through di-
rect attacks upon labor, but
through seemingly trivial accusa-
tions which will be soaked in by
Gullible Gus within our own ranks.
They know only too well that any
union is only as strong as the rank
and file, and they will work on
these soft spots.
By this time many of you must
be thinking that there perhaps is
an antidote for this poison" and
there is. A great deal can be ac-
complished if the older members
rejuvenate their interest in the ac-
tivities of the union and return to
those days when they did nothing
but think, talk and act union. The
real antidote to fight this scourge
through is your own TOLEDO
UNION JOURNAL the only paper
serving this section Of Ohio that
dares to print the true picture and
not hide the. basic ideas between
the lines. This is not a kept"
paper as you may well know, for
there have been numerous times
that labor itself was the recipient
of strongly worded lashings. Has
any other paper ever criticized in
dustry, unless they could lay the
blame on labor?
Another effective antidote which
will carry into the postwar period
is writing to the men in service
and keeping them informed as to
the true picture here. The NAM is
doing their darndest to blacken US
in the eyes of the servicemen. Now
let us do our darndest to keep the
informed and not mis-
as the enemies of labor
are doing. Send them clippings or,
better still, send them the whole
TOLEDO UNION JOURNAL and
let them read the truths as they
actually are, not as the moneybag
groups would like them to think
they are.
Now, dear reader, don't get the
idea that we are saying the union
is faultless-far be it from that.
But compared to the NAM we're /
simon pure. Don't forget to write
the boys in service and let them
know the truth.

Harold Laney, one of our serv-
icemen, wrote a letter few days
ago in which he thanked US for the
cigarettes sent him. We are glad
that he enjoyed our little gift. BY
the way, while we are on the sub
ject, we must tell you that the
cigarette fund is rapidly dwindling.
We won't let our boys down, Will
we? And if we won't, there's only
one way to prove it-by giving TO
the fund.

Raging
The Scale

Now that the holidays are be-
hind us and we can all start mer-
rily back to work-to the tune Of
stop watches held in the eager
hands of our new time study men,
we can certainly look forward to
a happy, prosperous New Year? =?
Of course, some individuals will
insist that the new time study
men are for no good, they will
probably even recall Mr.. BENEFITS S
speech just before the Labor Board
election one year ago, when ne
painted such bright and glorious
picture of the future for all the
new employees. No doubt, the.
malcontents will nod knowingly at
the constant stream of new en-
ployes going out the front door,
being turned out to seek greener
pastures, or something. But don't
let all this worry you folks, the
company union is going to take
good care Of you-and how! That's
right-how?
PERTURBED
Pres. Eugene Koontz was slight
ly perturbed to say the least when
a young lady rushed up to him
the other day and inquired, "Say,
where will l find the union MANI"
We don't know what made Gene
think it was him she meant, so
upon further inquiry she said, 81
want to join the CIO." Then, even
Pres. Koontz understood. Natural
ly, he directed her to the rignt
man!
ANOTHER CHANCE
There will soon be another cleo
tion at the Toledo Scale Co. How
soon-depends upon the people
who are talking about a real
union, but are slow in getting
into action. 1t takes more than
words to win elections or get a
real union," so if you want a
union, real union, it would be
a good idea for you to get going.
The sooner the better. Remember,
the war won't last forever. Who
do you want doing your bargain
ing for you in the postwar period,
an organization which is unable to
point to a single constructive thing
during the past year, or one that
has proven itself hundreds of
times during the last eight years
to be the organization for the
workers?
Your union should be yours,
which is something we cannot say
about the disorganized mob who
now pretends to represent the
workers at the Scale Co. You can
have such workers effective
lnion, but you must do something
for yourselves. You can see how
much the Scale Workers will do
for you, on the basis of what they
nave done. And what has our So
,alled union done for us?
