Hobbies Help Pep Up

BEST antidote to that not un-
common feeling that you're
growing stale or that your per-
sonality is closing in instead of
sprouting out, is a new interest
one that takes you into unfa-
millar surroundings or plunges
you into unusual activities.
If you feel that way. HE away
to some place new on your vaca-
ton or next holiday. If you
stay at home-a decision Uncle
Sam will approve-look for a
hobby. There are plenty of
books that will guide you in
your choice.
A stay at-home acquaintance
of mine found her hobby in lam
guage study, and the fun she's
had from mastering new
tongue is only half of it. Her in
terest in the language has blaz-
ed trail into amusing restau-
rants, foreign language theaters
and homes. It's opened up a new
world, made her new friends,

ests and a winning personality.

800 Workers Go
On Sifdown Strike

Philadelphia (FP) = Six hundred
workers at the Bendix Aviation Corp.
plant here went on a sitdown strike
to protest company cancellation of
their union contract and demanded
that the Mead committee investigate
the scheduled closing of the plant.
The workers, all members of Local
ia, United Electrical Radio and Ma
chine Workers, are the survivors of
a force of $500 men and women laid
off the day after VI Day.
UE International Representative
Francis White said the strike follow
ed 2-hour sitdown several days be-
fore caused by reports that a num-
Der of layoffs were to be made with
out regard to seniority.
White said he and the local negoti-
ating committee were told by manage
ment that, so far as the company was
concerned, the contract was cancelled.
The company said it no longer recog-
nized the union as bargaining agent
for the workers and confirmed that
some employees, largely women, were
to be laid off without regard to SEN
iority.

holding such interesting meetings
that it is hard to understand the small
attendance How much easier it would
be for the officers to Judge the de-
sires of the rank and file if more
members were on hand Friday eve-
nings.
After three years of working six
days week at a stepped-up speed,
many have expressed their desire to
return to the five-day week, while on
the other hand many cannot afford to
lose the IL hours pay. The firm does
not object to a man resting up oc-
cassionally, but this also has its diff
culties.
Our servicemen are returning now
and we are trying to cooperate with
the firm to keep benches open for
them. Several are contemplating re-
turning to sanitary casting. The Con-
ference Committee will meet shortly
and we hope they can find some solu-
ton.
Many complain that an effort to
increase production is crowding them
so much that they cannot work prop
erly. These complains were turned
over to the shop committee for in
vestigation.

House Group Drafting Substitute
For Delayed Full Employment Bill

Washington, d. C.-The House Ex-
penditures Committee closed nearly
seven weeks Of hearings on ''full en-
ployment" legislation by appointing d
subcommittee of five which Chairman
Manasco "hopes" will draft some sort
of a compromise measure.
Four of the five have strongly op-
posed sections of the three pending
bills, the counterpart of the one origi-
nally offered in the Senate, the SEN
ate's moderated draft and an elabora-
tion of the original offered by Repre-
sentative La Toilette, of Indiana.
Secretary of Labor Schwellenbach,
appearing at the final hearing, de-
clared that some opponents of the pro-
posals did not want full employment,
preferring pool of idle labor to keep
pressure on wages, and that some
contradict themselves in their argu-
mentS.

action in the committee appeared to
have had some effect, but not much,
Mr.. Manasco said:
"If the issue had been brought to
a vote today the committee would
have tabled all the pending meas
ures."
On the subcommittee are Represen-
tatives Manasco, chairman; Cochran
and Wilmington of Mississippi, DEM
ocrats, and Bender of Ohio and Hoff-
man of Michigan, Republicans. Only
Mr.. Cochran has supported the Presi-
dents desires on the measure, al
though Mr.. Wilmington has said that
he would like to see some sort of
compromise measure.

This last hope of the anti-union,

Another committee was reported
unofficially to have reached unani-

that it has increased Industrial strife
