PAc Endorsements

Those who have had occasion to seek
the endorsement of the Political Action
Committee know that the stamp of ap-
provaI is not placed lightly upon candI-
dates for public office.
Before a candidate for office can Sc
cure the backing of the PAC, he must
measure up to the standards which have
been set for those who receive the endorse
ment of the organization.
Two of those who have received the
hacking of the Political Action Commit
tee in next Tuesdays election in addition
TO Councilman Tom Burke are Judge Stan
lev A. Grzezinski and Landon Hall, can
didates for Judge and clerk respectively OF
the municipal court.
Judge Grzezinski has never tried to
keep his stand for labor secret He has
been fair and impartial in his dealings
with the workers who have had occasion
to appear before him, and at all times has
treated all citizens of this community as
people and not just cases.
PAC in giving Judge Grzezinsh its
complete backing does so with the wish to
further good government in Toledo The
organizatio nbelieves that the Is months
Judge Grzezinski has served on the bench
has marked him as one of the outstanding
men in this community and is convinced
that he has shown his ability as a jurist
1t recommends him, not only to the mem
bers of CIO who will vote next Tuesday,
but to all workers and the plain people OF
Toledo.
Landon Hall has served long enough
in the municipal clerks office to be well
and favorably known to every citizen OF
this city. He has received PAC support
each time he has sought reelection and
has shown by his conduct In office that
he is worthy Of the continued confidence
and votes of all the people.
We recommend both Judge Grzezinski
and Landon Hall to the voters of Toledo
and sincerely hope that they will both win
in next Tuesdays election.

The Victory Loon

In the face of increasing unemploy-
ment, lowered take-home pay, retarded re-
conversion and an employers sitdown
strike against the workers, il may seem
trifle untimely to ask the American people
TO subscribe to the final and Victory Loan
drive.
Those who are fortunate enough TO
have jobs, as we'll as those whose business
has experienced an upsurge as a result of
the ending of the war would do well TO
consider subscribing to the Victory Loan
Drive and for the same reasons which
activated them when they purchased bonds
for the other drives during the war.
Many Of those who now are finding il
necessary to cash in their bonds because
of the pressure Of economic necessity
realize that the bonds have provided them
with a quick and certain incme which
they otherwise might not have had. II
was a savings for them and an asset for
the government al time when the money
was sorely nedeed.
If you can possibly do so buy bonds.
If possible hold them as long as you can.

OUR DUTY

OUR DUTY
Election day is almost here and it becomes
the duty of every good citizen to go to the
polls and express himself on the men who
are running for office and the various issues
which face us.
I cannot urge you too strongly to exercise
your citizenship next Tuesday and play your
part in this community. We of the labor
unions like to believe that we are good Amer
leans and good citizens, but one of the marks
of good citizenship and Americansm is to
make our contribution to the community and
take part in directing its destiny.
One of the most important things to the
workers of Toledo is to return Tom Burke to
the City Council 1 don't think should go
into any long explanation of why think Tom
should be returned, because it is my belief
that each of you know the reasons why as
well, or better than l. l ask that you give him
your first choice votes and try and elect him
on the first ballot If you have made previous
commitments to another for your first choice
vote, then give him your second choice vote;
but vote for him and make it near the top of
the list.
PR REFERENDUM
Next to the council election, we are inter
members of City Council so that those who run
for public office will stand on their own two
feet and be elected on their own merits.
know that the system which has been Of
fered the alternative for the PR system is
not perfect, no method is; but it seems to me
that it is advance over the system now in
use and gives us the opportunity to vote for
nine men and have all nine votes counted.
Should the PR be defeated, City Coun
has its right, according to the city charter, x
name charter commission to devise ways and
means to elect city councilmen outside of the
PR system. want to say that we would be
more than willing to discuss any plan that
would be generally acceptable to the majority
of the people of Toledo if the PR is defeated
and that if some other better plan is advanced
we would not refuse to go along with it.
We have tried to get on common ground
with all the groups who have sought and at
tempted to rid this city of the PR system and
/ say that we will not attempt to hold our
selves aloof from such groups in the event
that PR is defeated.
l hope that every worker in this city will
vote on the PR issue and that they will vote
for the amendment sponsored by the PAC. 1t
will be the first step forward to give us
method of electing city councilmen that is
better understood and which will place us in
position to get more representative and re-
Sponsible government.

From The Desk
OF
Melvin Schultz
President,
Local II, UAW,ClO

1t seems that with another week having
passed. there is no change of any great magni-
tude in the wage situation nationally. The
General Motors workers, as you have noted
in the daily press, have voted Overwhelmingly
in favor of backing up their demands for
wage increase. Here, in Toledo, the vote car
ried by approximately SO per cent majority.
1t seems to me that when the UAW repre-
sentative in negotiations with General Motors
management challenged the management to
conduct the negotiations before representatives
of the press and his challenge was not accepted,
the management was convicted of being in
position to concede to the demands Of its
workers. OF all of the reasons which l have
stated in previous articles which justify the
payment of the demands made by our Union,
/ would like to add just one more thought. 1t
seems to me that we must consider the eff
cheney of every worker when his hours are
decreased. Just imagine yourself working 9,
10, or IL hours six or seven days a Weeb and
then reducing the number of hoers of work
down to not more than in one day and not
more than five days a week and you can
readily understand that you are physically able
to produce more in the short work week than
could be produced by yourself in the same
period of time out of a long work week. This
increase in efficiency will result in profits for
the Corporation. 1t is only logical that these
increased profits are directly attributable to
the man working on the machine and; there
fore, this percentage of profits should largely
60 to him,
l myself, and I am quite sure that each OF
my readers, if they will but analyze their own
nature, will readily agree that with the return
to normal 40 hour week, we are more likely
to work every day barring serious illness then
were we to continue under the wartime neces-
sity of long work weeks This too, results in an
increase in efficiency of plant resulting in
profits.
1t is not my desire to write this and other
articles in defensive way but rather that
can show the logic and reasoning to the general
public who too often do not analyze situations
when they are improperly headlined in many
of the papers in our Country. 1t is my hoTJ
that with the few thoughts that | may otft
l will be able to start thinking person to-
think more deeply.

WIDE SPREAD
RESPONSIBILITY

Such a reading of history
indicates that managerial lr-
responsibility has been so
widespread, so gross that
workers have been forced (at
great effort and periD to take
their destinies into their own
hands.
II comes as something of
shock, therefore, when we
hear management, through
press and radio, declaring that
labor must assume a more re-
sponsible attitude, Despite OBJ
vious distortion of the present
General Motors situation, 1t is
clear that the United Automo-
bile Workers are the respons-
ible ones here; General Motors
the irresponsible ones.
The UAW is clearly stating
that it wants no pay increase
il 1t means passing on the in
crease to the public. General
Motors, on the other hand,
takes the irresponsible" view
that it will grant a pay in
crease if the public can be
made to absorb it through
higher priced automobiles.
This attitude of GM is
patiently irresponsible in the
face of figures presented by
UAW, and more recently by a
neutral government agency,
to show that industry can alb
sorb substantial wage in
creases, without increasing
prices to the public. General
Motors responsibility was
further illustrated in its re-
fusal TO open its books to
prove whether il could sup
port such an increase, and its
denial of the press and the
public TO the wage negotiation
hearings.
The attitude of General Mo
tors is typical of the attitude
of management in general
down through the last century,
1t was best summed up in a
statement by GM this week:
Our profits are our own busi-
ness" To long ng-suffering labor
to a helpless public-this
statement no longer can be
swallowed. Exorbitant profits
at the expense of payrolls and
the purchasing public def
nitely are the common con-
Germ.

KEEPING
SCORE
With
Fred Thomas
DEVICE

An ancient device to cover
ones own guilt is to accuse
someone else of the thing for
which you stand accused. In
recent days we have seen some
of the nations "unselfish" cor
porations turning on the labor
movement in this country and
accusing it of responsibility.
The most fitting answer to this
was delivered on September 8
last, by Secretary of Labor
Schwellenbach. He said:
Management had the op-
portunity-an almost unlim-
tied opportunity-to assume
its responsibilities to the COM
mon good throughout much OF
the last 100 years and even
before that time. But manage
ment surrendered its right
and its opportunity by prac-
tices which brought on the de-
mand for Government regula-
tion Labor now has the
opportunity to solve its prob
lems and to make certain that
the common good is not trans
gressed."
In that single paragraph, the
secretary of labor compressed
100 years of privation and
misery suffered by labor at
the hands of irresponsible"
management. A dip into the
history of the labor movement
here and abroad, shows his
torians in bitter condemnation
of employers who took an at
titude that a worker was
niece of merchandise to be
bought as cheaply as possible,
and treated with indifference.
This attitude was so thor
ouehly irresponsible that 1t led
to a virile union movement
and to more and more govern
ment Capitalization. Had man
aRement, through the last 100
wears. taken a responsible
attitude toward labor, there
might be some reason to doubt
IL the union movement ever
would have gained headWay
and If the governments of the
world would have moved (as
they have been moving)
toward Socialism. Anyone
who pretends to speak with
historical accuracy has only to
look at the history of manage
ment, here and abroad, in the
last century to find the causes
of social unrest, and the seeds
of warfare.

Political
Action
ISSUES

ISSUES
Full employment, that is
jobs for all at living wages and
World Peace are issues which
are at stake in this coming city
election. At first glance the
foregoing statement appears to
stretch the point quite a bit.
AS a matter of fact, it is no
exaggeration at all.
In 1946 there will be a
decisive election in Congress
and the State legislators. If
the h amp ons of liberal
thought win out we will have
National and State legislative
bodies which will enact laws
to assure full participation of
the United States in a world
federation to maintain world
peace and full employment. If
the reactionary elements win
out in 1946 we will have de-
preston, poverty and all their
attendant evils.
Lucas County and Toledo
has a big part to play in the
l946 election, IF we succeed
in re-electing Tom Burke and
repeating P, r. this year.
II we fail to abolish PR
(under which the voter only
has one vote, altho there are
nine vacancies and only 1919
of the total vote is required to
elect a candidate) and re-elect
Tom Burke who has done an
outstanding job in city coun-
Gil, the influence of the CIO-
PAC will most assuredly be
impaired.
These reasons alone are Suf-
ficient to warrant everyone
doing all they can to assure
the defeat of PR and the re-
election of Tom Burke.
REPEAL PR
In addition there is good
reason to work for the passage
of the amendment to repeal
PR even from a purely local
viewpoint. PR is undemo-
cratic, unfair, unnecessarily
complicated, a gamble, and
does not Gas is claimed, give
representation to minorities).
1t perpetuates a clique in of
flee, creates an irresponsible
city administration and dis
courages interest in city gov
ernment. Nor is it mathemat-
ically accurate as its propon-
entS claims.
Also from a purely local
standpoint it is very impor-
tant that Tom Burke be re-
elected to City Council. He has
sponsored legislation to inn
prove conditions for the peo-
pie. He has sponsored projects
which will bring business and
employment to our city. In
the reconversion period man
of the caliber and background
of Tom Burke is essential in
our city government.
On November 9th opportu-
nifty will knock.
Let us resolve to be on the
ball, and assure the defeat of
PR and the reelection of Tom
Burke.
