The daily monitor leader. [volume] (Mount Clemens, Mich.) 1942-19??, 1945-07-24

Favored by good weather, the
Department of Recreation play
grounds program found its full
stride during the past week
when three major special events
were run off and city champions
named in paddle tennis and
checkers.
In cooperation with the Auto
mobile Club of Michigan, play
grounds displayed safety posters
on their bulletin boards and SUI
pervisors talked with children
on the matter of safety on the
grounds, crossing streets and
riding bicycles.
This week, as one phase OF the
safety education program. the
children will engage in colorin4
pictures illustrating principles
OF safety, and will also study
and recite safety rules. Supplies
for this project were distribu-
ted by the Automobile Club.
Most interesting event OF the
week was the doll show, held ST.
simultaneously at each play
ground under the direction OF
Robert II. Beal, chief super
visor. Large entries of all types
and sizes of dolls were made
at each playground, and many
of the entries had a historical
background.
DOLL FROM BELGIUM
First prize winner at Grant
playground, where 36 girls en-
tered dolls, was Suzanne Seen
en-, who displayed a doll with
clothes and suitcase sent TO her
from Belgium by her uncle, AL
SOenen.
Other dolls were themselves
handed down from a previous
generation or wore clothes
which were in the family heir
loom class. One girl Joan Tes-
key won a first award in hel
class with doll dressed in

DETROIT - There are five
highly explosive BOBBY traps IN

Grated by EdV ard l.. Cushman,
area War ManpoWer Director,
they arc - without attempting
10 decide the order OF their i'm
portancc:
!. Jurisdictional questions ---
this one may be licked though
il is best to keep ones fingers
crossed
2. Seniority questions - both
among civilian workers and be-
tween them and returning Serv-
ice men.
3. Wages - the decreases in

1. Supervision worker re
sentiment Of employer attempts
to eradicate loose, costly prac-
ttses encouraged by wartime
conditions.
5 Insecurity - a psychology
cal factor that can breed It's own
troubles and that Will add 10 the
menace of all of the others.
FIVE POINT PROBLEMS
To these. in Detroit and some
OF her places, there probably
must be added sixth potential
land mine-the race question.
Checking up on previous notes
it seemed that Director Cush-
man had summarized. in his
five point list. most Of what 9TH
ers said: and when | asked those
with whom ] talked later about
the list, all agreed that it was
accurate and complete.
Look it over carefully, and -
with or without the sixth. or
racial. threat you probably
will find that most of the De-
troit seeds of discord are pres
ent in your own community,
ready to produce plenty of trou-
Bile as cutbacks get heavy and
as management and labor plan
for their parts in the postwar
civilian economy.
The jurisdictional battle broke
out here in May when the AFL,
some Of whose building trades
men had been hired by contract
ors to work on plant revamping
and expansion for imminent civ

ed that wherever AFL men built
new plant AFL men should in
stall the machinery,
The CIO dominates the auto
mobile industry. and its main

work. So the ClO retorted that
no AFL men must be used until
all available CIO personnel have
been utilized. The C1O also de-
manded that the pay Of its main
tenance men be raised TO the
level paid AFL builders. who
get more on the theory that
their employment is less stable.
AFL builders walked out June

Highest Tribunal
To Review Case
On Bargain Pact

WASHINGTON, Jan. 3. (UP)yt
The supreme court Wednesday haH'
agreed to review a suit in which
the federal government has attack
ed a collective bargaining agree
ment between labor unions and
employers as being in collation. of
the Sherman antitrust law.
The case involved appeals by an
employer group and several affiliat-
ed trade unions of the millwork
and pattern lumber industry in the
San Francisco Bay area. Both
groups are protesting an August
ruling of the ninth circuit court
of appeals holding their working
contract unlawful and affirming
antitrust judgments impo s ed
against them in northern Cali
fornia federal district court.
The judgments resulted from
government charges that since 1895
conspiracy has existed between
the manufacturers and unions to
maintain fixed" prices on mill
work and pattern lumber and to
boycott products shipped into Cali
fornia from other states, mainly
Oregon and Washington, where
lower union wage scales prevailed.
In appealing the unions placed
before the high court the question
as to whether union activities of
collective bargaining nature are i'm
mune from antitrust prosecutions.
The employers contended that the
labor contract was a concession to
