Rediger Aids
TX Drive

One of the principal figures
in the UAW-CIO organizational
drive under way in the Packard
Motor Co., TX Division, is How
ard Rediger of the international
regional staff.
Mr.. Rediger, himself skilled
worker in , the metallurgical di-
vision of the Willys-Overland
has for his goal the bringing of
strong union principles to the
skilled workers. 1t is his feeling
that the skilled worker has
more to gain under industrial
type of unionism than under any
other form in which there is a
division of interests because of
the artificial barrier between
skilled and unskilled workers.
AS one of the organizers in
the TX Division drive, Mr.. Red
iger has worked hard to bring
the principles of industrial un-
ionism to the TX employees. In
addition to personal contacts he
has handled publicity and cor
respondence dealing with the
drive. He has also been of ma
terial assistance in the Interna-
tional regional office assisting
the engineering division.

2-B Gains
Members

A decrease of 113, TAI in the
average of monthly UAW-
CIO dues-paying members
was revealed last week by the
office of the International
Union secretary-treasurer in his
bi-annual financial report does
not reflect itself in the member
ship of Region 2-B under Re-
gional Director Richard Gosser
Despite the loss of member
ship in the international UAW-
CIO some of which has occurred
in Toledo, Region 2-B continues
to show a healthy growth as the
result of the organizational ef-
forts carried out under the dl-
rection of Director Gosser.
Barring the increase in UAW-
CIO membership in the Toledo
area, Region 2-B would be ap-
proximately 1000 m m b S
short. On the other hand, 21
out of "a elections have been
won in slightly more than two
years which have brought such
plants as Lima Locomotive, Fos-
toria Spark Plug, Packard Mo-
tor Co., Toledo, and others into
the UAW ranks.
Nearly one-half of the total
membership in Region 2-B is ac-
counted for by Local II, UAW-
CIO, which is the largest local
union in Ohio.
Director Gosser stated that
organization work is continuing
in Troy, Piqua, Toledo and other
places throughout the region
and that efforts would be con-
tinued to maintain his region at
its present high membership.
Approximately $4,000 to 10000
members belong to the Auto

= The first wartime test OF
labor's no-strike pledge by
referendum of union mem
bers was nearly concluded
by the United Auto Workers
CIO early this week.
An unofficial count showed
that out of more than 100000
UAW members the total ballots
cast were 281,130.
To retain the no-strike
pledge ... .178,231
To revoke the no-strike
P4CuSS OOJ LOU
These preliminary totals give
63.3 % of the vote toward reten-
tion of the pledge.
Although at least two other
union heads have publicly re-
the no-strike pledge, no
m m b ship referendum are
scheduled anywhere in the
American labor movement.
Final figures on the referen-
dunn will be published in the
JAWS United Auto Worker.
Interest is especially keen in the
tabulation of the ballots sent to
servicemen.
