ANA Ignores
Strike Threat
BY SILER FREEMAN
Ds,rsi, Time, Automobns Editor

4 Officially, the automobile manu-
facturerS viii not consider the
strike threat Of the UAW-CIO on
an induStry-wide basis it was
learned today.
But observers believe that if
any OF the Big Three is closed
by tho union. the others will close
down with the affected company
and the independents will follow
suit in quick order.
The board of directors Of the
Automobile Manufacturers ASso-
citation was meeting today but
discussion or action on the strike
threat made last week was not
officially on the agenda.
The ANA being 'feaeti-
vated." it was learned, TO succeed
the Automotive Council OF War
Production. which goes out of eX-
istence Oct. l
BUSINESS ROUTINE
The directors were slated 10
frame routine policies for taking
up where it left off in l94l, when
II gave way TO the wartime or
ganiZatinn on production prob
lens. Any discussion on the labor
situation will be entirely informal,
il was said.
No official of the council or the
ANA would be quoted on future
action if the JAW carried out it's
threat for a finish fight on the
proposed 30 per cent wage in
crease.
One. however, pointed out that
the ANA was production organ
ization and never before entered
into any labor dispute in the in
duStry even during the wave OF
Sndown strikes. Only when the
Meade investigating committee
held hearings here last spring did
the industry intervene in A labor
situation.
FORD NOT MEMBER
II was also pointed out that the
ANA could not represent the en-
tire industry if it wanted TO The
Ford Motor Co. has never been a
member or The ANA
Another reason given for the
reluctance of the manufacturer
10 deal with the strike threat on
an industry-wide basis is the fear
that 1t would give Walter p
Reuther. CIO leader, an argument
why management should be or
Gaalzaa- ~ ttlE4e-saFf4t- as labor
and disputes be handled As in
England. with one labor organiza--
tlon bargaining with only one
management unit.
Industry argues that this would
tend 10 carteliZation and il has
resisted nightly any move along
these lines. II management met
laborS strike threat as a unit, il
fears II would set a dangerous
precedent.
So, despite the grave situation
which looms ahead. each company
officially will handle its own
problems But behind il. the feel
ing is a club held over one is a
club over all.

Italy, Guatemala,
Readmitted To lilo

Paris (ILNS).-The international
Labor Conference has voted to read
NIT Italy to membership in the Inter-
national Labor Organization, from
which she withdrew in 1889. United
States Senator Ebert D. Thomas, of
Utah, a government delegate to the
conference, joined government spokes-
men from the United Kingdom and
France, in support of Italy's appli-
cation for readmission.
Italy was an original member of the
international Labor Organization and
played an active part at the first con-
ference in Washington in 1919.
The conference also voted to re-
admit Guatemala whose membership
in the lilo terminated in 1888 when
she withdrew from the League Of Ma
tions. In addition Iceland's applica-
tion for admission was favorably act
ed on. This represents that republics
first membership in any international
organization.

mean propagandists and stupid super
jealous persons, some in uniform.
And it was made out that every
time labor found conditions so un-
bearable that it had to stop work, la
Dor was being unpatriotic and was
sabotaging the fighting men.
Labor never has been able to get
the general public to understand that,
all through the war, while wages
stood still, locked to the so-called Lit
tie Steel formula, prices of almost
everything went up, until labor wound
up with pretty severe reduction in
actual pay.
Meanwhile labor produced as if
some inspired and gigantic genius were
pouring out the tools of war from
some new and amazing atomic engine.
1t was only overtime that enabled
a majority of workers to earn fairly
decent pay-and for that pay, brother,
men worked like demons. No other ma
tion can match the record of American
workers. And yet they are being kick
ed around.
Outfits like General Motors, Gen
eral Electric, Westinghouse and others
of size, missed tremendous oppor-
tunity by not stepninp forth. when
the shooting stopped, with proposal
for real and honest adjustment of
wages upward, to get workers take
home pay up to proper level.
n Who knows what would have been
the result, in mutual respect, mutual
happiness and mutual well-being, if
employers had said to unions, "Come
on and let's sit down to figure out how
to adjust wages to a fair and proper
level"
The Butler County press. [volume] (Hamilton, Ohio) 1900-1946, 1945-11-09

In this new atomic age we find en-
ployers acting almost exactly as they
did 20 years ago, except that strike
breakers aren't used any more.
We still have the union demands,
the employer reflections, the exchange
Of challenges and rebuttals- The gen.
eral horsing around, as if, in industry
there could be no mutual interest and
no enlightened self-interest.
And, even as of old, labor, when
forced to fight for every nickle, de-
mands more than it hopes to get, leav-
ing room for compromise Somehow,
compromise giving labor less than it
asks-seems to make employers hap

1t is said that George Washington
said, Father, cannot tell lie."
There is equally good evidence that
George also said, later on in life, "Gee,
Betsy, amt it fierce, we amt got no
flag"
Whereupon Betsy told George to
keep his shirt on while she made him
a flag.
A flag means an identity and you
don't get kicked around as monde
script.
The comparison is perhaps a bit
far fetched, but labor today needs a
flag that everyone will understand.
Anyway, it needs something flag, or
education, or something-that will
identify its wage policy as legitimate
thing, entitled to respect.
Labor's wage policy needs some
thing that will get it out Of the
guerilla class, where so many people
have put it and where it doesn't be-
long at all.
Labor is getting a first rate kick
ing around and lot Of it is coming
from those who should be support
ing labor.

the shooting phase Of the war, when

py. 1t gives them some balm for their
damn fat ego.
You can ask yourself what would be
the standard Of living if labor had not,
from the start, battled for more wages
and fewer hours, along with better
conditions?
Employers always have fought la
boris demands, but always they have
yielded here and there, the total Of
their yielding being the total of to-
days standard Of living.
Does anybody want to destroy that
standard, inadequate as it still is?
The truth is that labor is the maker

HUNGER BREEDS WARS
BY Ruth Taylor

Have you ever been hungry No,
/ don't mean just that empty feeling
when you miss meal but--really hun
gry--every day for weeks and months
and years? So hungry that food be-
came the only important thing in the
world? So important that you would
do anything to get it?
Have you ever seen any one you love
slowly dying for want of food? Have
you ever heard the whimper of a hun
CRY child? Have you ever known
hunger so great that you would bar
gain your freedom to satisfy it?
Unfortunately, peace and plenty are
not synonymous. The guns are stilled,
the war. is won. But-the battle of
peace has just begun. Unless we can
win that struggle, the great losses we
have suffered will have been in vain.
Our President sounded warning
and challenge in his message to the
nation on his return from Potsdam:
Europe today is hungry Desperate
men are liable to destroy the structure
of their society to find in the wreck
age some substitute for hope. If we let
Europe go cold and hungry, we may
lose some of the foundations of order
on which the hope for world wide
peace must rest"
Let's look at the question with OBJ
jective self-interest. 1t is generally ad-
mitted by all informed people (when
they are not speaking politically to
pressure groups) that our future well
fare is inseparably intertwined with
the future welfare of the men and
women and children of the world. 'To
save succeeding generations from the
scourge of war which twice in our life
time has brought untold sorrow to
mankind" So begins the Preamble to
the World Charter.
Totalitarianism feeds on ignorance
and indifference. Let it not be our in
difference. Only quick action can help
to tide Europe over the food and fuel
crisis this winter and avoid the newt
able consequences of political and eco-
nomic chaos.
Here is what you, the average Amer
lean citizen, can do:
(1) Urge the government to send the
maximum amount possible Of food and
| fuel to liberated areas.
(2) Use foods when they are in plen-
tiful supply and avoid the use of those
foods needed for export.
(3) Join in salvage campaigns.
(4) Boycott black markets-remem-
ber it takes buyers as well as sellers
to keep black markets going.
| (5) Accept cheerfully the continu-
ance of such restrictions as are neces-
sary for the fulfillment of our promises
to our Allies.
| This is not mere philanthropic ap-
peal. 1t is the considered opinion of all
of our statesmen, no matter to what
party they belong, that food now can
prevent third World War. With all
our Shortages" we are by far the
best fed country in the world.
1t postponement Of rise in our al
ready high standard too high a price
to pay for peace?

of decent standards and it is entitled
to full credit
1t gets kicked around, but somehow
it moves forward.
But it is time for an intelligent
nation to stop kicking labor
around, to stop believing every
employer hand-out, to stop being
fooled.
There is no standing still. We go
forward or we go backward.
Who, with any sense, wants to go
backward? Well, we improve, we gain
for the masses, or backward is where
we go. Let's all get some vision-somc

Francis Walker Injured

While engaged in making hay on
the John Covar ranch on Iron creek,
the team Francis Walker was driv-
ing on the moving machine became
frightened when single-tree broke.
This caused one horse to rear and
take the other as well as the ma
chine with him. When the reins
broke Francis saw the situation
was beyond his control so jumped
clear. Escape was impossible as the
horses turned and the wheel on
the off side from the cutting bar
ran over him. Francis considers
himself very lucky that it was not
the cutting bar which was in ac-
ton that ran over him. As it is he
is laid up with badly bruised leg
After a diligent search in this town
and in Libby he managed to secure
a pair of crutches and that is his
means of transportation now.
