the tenor's mind. He appeared
at the USO Club operated by the
Jewish Welfare Board in Orlando
that night, and gave an i'm

Forenens' Union
Asks To Be Heurd

Washington (FP).-The Foremens'
Association Of America (unaffiliated)
wrote the national labor-management
conference Nov. IA that it wanted rep
resentation or the right to be heard
before any committee Of the confer
ence that considers the question Of
the unionization Of foremen.
DR.. George w. Taylor, conference
secretary, said the letter was signed
by President Robert Keys Of FAA and
was considered by the executive com
mittee, which has not yet decided
which of the conference committees
has jurisdiction.
Both the committee on manage
ment's right to manage and the com
nittee on collective bargaining claim
jurisdiction, and the decision Of the
executive committee or of the whole
conference in plenary session may de-
termine the light in which the fore
mems issue is to be considered.
Should the committee on manage
ment's right to manage get it, there
will be big section feeling that the
management delegates have won an
important point because of their de-
termination to insist that foremen are
instruments Of management.
On the other hand, should the issue
go to the collective bargaining group,
it may spur labor delegates to inten-
sify their efforts to include foremen
as workers in broad definition of
the elements of collective bargaining
DR.. Taylor said he, personally, saw
no progress yet in spelling out such a
definition of collective bargaining be-
cause of the extremely diverse views
of the two groups-labor and man
agement.
On the question of union response
bility under collective bargaining, he
said, the committee is considering
penalties on unions violating con-
tract, and the problem of union Sc
curity.
AS to representation and jurisdic-
tional questions, the committee deal
ing with that subject has tentatively
recommended policies looking toward
prevention and the prompt solution of
disputes over work assignments. These
recommendations Taylor said, will be
drafted and reported later, but are
believed by the committee to be help
full in minimizing production stop
pages over work jurisdiction disputes.

SETTLEMENT AVERTS
n. Y. MILK STRIKE
Settlement AyertS Strike

New York (FP)-A milk strike in
the New York area was averted when
Mayor F. H. LaGuardia effected a set
tlement between milk distributors and
deliverers, members of international
Brotherhood of Teamsters (AFL).
The main issue of retaining the war
time system of every-other-day deliv-
cry of milk, objected to by the union,
was settled BY granting the men a
5-day, 4O-hour week in place of the
present 6-day, 48-hour week.
Skip-a-day deliveries will be con-
tinued through the life of the new
contract, which will go into effect Jan.
Is, 1916, and expire Oct. "a, 1947.
The potters herald. [volume] (East Liverpool, Ohio) 1899-1982, 1945-11-29

Tt seems to me there is a lot of
small thinking going on in Washing
ton-and a lot of willingness to make
partisan use of tremendous issues that
have no true partisan slant.
Pretty dirty business is being done
by some of the Republicans in the So
called Pearl Harbor Investigation.
Their idea seems to be that the main
job is to smear Franklin d. Roosevelt,
who is dead.
Well, there are some politicians who
would never pick anything alive if
they could avoid it.
Then there is the partisan bunk
shooting about consolidation of the
armed forces under one head.
There is about as much objectivity
about that discussion as there would
be between Army and Notre Dame
football coaches-probably a lot less.
The same is true of universal train
ing and the same also is true of the
so-called atomic bomb.
With too many of our public fig
ures the main issue is, "How can |
keep my job?"
Some call these added discussions
democracy at work. That is true-but
it is about the lowest and most dis
gusting phase of democracy.
Intelligent democracy presupposes
true public service on the part of
public servants. 1t presupposes some
self-sacrifice, when honesty requires
it, just as the uniformed Americans
so recently exemplified self-sacrifice
in the highest degree.
Why should we expect less of a
Congressman than we expect of buck
private?
A buck private, in war, could get
shot for what some top officials do
for the sake of getting an added vote
or two, or an extra headline or two.
The Washington show these days is
pretty disgusting. Some hamming con-
gresham shoots off his mouth, in
supreme ignorance and egotism, about
Pearl Harbor or the atomic bomb-and
nothing can be done about it. Not un-
til election anyway. It's tough.
Some gabble-faced ginkopolunos
lets go with both barrels about who
didn't do what and there are plenty
of newspapers to give him space.
Some half-educated gobblewok
throws out smear about our Allies
in relation to the atomic bomb and
maybe it takes years to undo his
mouthy blabber. But he get a head
line and maybe some of his constit-
uents think he's a great guy.
High craftsmanship is needed-and
we get gutter politics.
The monkeys don't seem to under
stand that we are entering, or have
entered an entirely new era. Perhaps
they would't recognize new era any
way.
Well, quite likely we shall get
through it and come out halfway
creditibly, in spite of everything. But
it could so easily happen that we just
didn't.
Right now, in these current days,
we can lay the foundation of devas-
tating third war, or we can help lay
the foundation of lasting peace.
Selfishness and meanness and stu
pidity and inflated ego will not make
for peace.
There must be some who will think |
