Muchinists Win
Big Airline Unit

Washington, d. C. - One of the
biggest airlines in the world-Pan-
Amerinan Airways-was brought un-
der the banner of the International
Association of Machinists for all en-
ployees in its maintenance shops,
numbering over 1000.
An agreement just signed between
the LAM and Pan-American recog-
nizes the union as exclusive bargain
ing agency for these workers engaged
mostly in repairing, maintaining and
servicing planes. They are employed
largely in five big shops-at Browns
vile, Texas; LaGuardia Field, New
York; Seattle, San Francisco and
Miami
The Machinists hitherto represented
the workers at the Brownsville and
LaGuardia field shops, but signed up
a sufficient number of employees at
the other shops to give the union a
substantial majority over the entire
system. On the basis of evidence of
this majority, the pact was entered
into under terms of the Railway La
Dor Act, which also governs labor
relations in air transportation.
This recognition agreement will be
followed later by negotiation of
system-wide contract, covering wages,
hours and working conditions, with
supplements for the various divisional
shops.

MdnY Ammunition
Workers Needed

Washington, D. c. GLNS).-U. S.
Employment Offices throughout the
nation have been instructed to make
every effort to recruit 10000 workers
urgently needed to produce ammu-
milton.
Paul V. McNutt, War Manpower
Commission chairman, said $4,000 of
these workers are needed in the artil-
lery and mortar ammunition pro-
grams and 10000 in small arms
ammunition production. All of the
armed forces are expending ammuni-
tion more rapidly than was expected,
hence the DEMAND for the additional
workers.
More help is needed in copper and
lead mines, brass and strip mills,
forges and machine tool plants, pow
der works, loading plants and other
units of the ammunition industry.
Region TX of the VINO organiza-
tion needs 26,992 workers, more than
any other region. These workers are
wanted in Choteau, Okla, Kansas
City and st. Louis, Mo-; Parsons,
Kan; and Little Rock, Ark. Region

cities in Illinois, Indiana and Wiscon-

GLAMOR

Fashions in this country pile up
into two and a half billion dollar
industry sharing honors among the
big four with food, oil and steel.
For many years before the war the
volume of Paris fashions imported By
the U. S. rapidly dwindled. Year after
year our own exports of fashions to
other countries such as Canada, Mex
leo, the Union of South Africa, the
Netherlands, Newfoundland and Lab
rador grew greater.
A survey made in one branch alone
of New York's fashion mart showed
the gigantic scope of our New Yorl,
market. There are 162 manufacturers
of junior dresses in New York. This
doesn't include suits, coats or sports

Florida Low "On
Ice" Till Test
Enforcement Ban Held
Up By State Official

Tallahassee, Fla. - State Attorney
General Tom Watson announced he
would not attempt to enforce the re-
Gently adopted State Constitutional
Amendment banning the union shop
until the measure is tested in the
courts.
The labor-baiting state official said
ne would not undertake prosecutions
under the amendment because he had
discovered that bona-fide difference
of opinion exists "in the minds of
citizens in and out of organized labor
regarding the operation and legal
status" of the amendment.
What Watson did not reveal, how
ever, was that he had made unsuc-
cessful efforts in Washington to in
duce Federal agencies to go along
with his in his anti-union drive.
He wanted them to agree that the
Florida law, and the desires of the
foes OF labor in that state, were above
the governments wartime powers in
settling labor disputes. Their response
was an emphatic negative.
AS result of this Watson pulled
in his horns when he got back here
and let it be known he would mot
force the issue" on the new law until
the courts had ruled on it.
He declared he was convinced the
measure was valid, but apparently
was none too confident about being
able to prove so on his own, because
he launched campaign for funds to
hire private lawyers to help in the
litigation.

junior dresses is about one hundred

Do you have an old trunk of
Grandma's filled with old fashioned
fnery in the attic? If you do, get it
out and utilize the stuff. This is the
year for feathers, ribbons, laces,
beads, fringes and fur.
If you are of those persons who
have the knock of making something
smart from the out of date things
this is the year to strut your stuff. A
recent fashion show given in the
Persian Room of the Plaza Hotel in
New York featured this idea, proving
that everything that might turn up in
the home is usable if you have the
slightest bit of ingenuity.

Coming to the United States from

Johnson found employment at the
Chickering Piano Company where he

migrating to Southern California

America of 1913 and 1914"
The American production record,
the VINO chief said, was the result
Of management-labor teamwork.
Management and labor have al
ready proved that democratic ma
tion could outproduce both the
Mikado's fanatic manned factories
and Hitler's factories manned by
German robot-workers and all Of

McNutt said the surveys, by pre-
venting manpower wastage, have re-
suited in savings of millions of man.
hours a month. Present production
problems in many tight labor areas
could be solved at least in part by
proper use of available labor, he said.
Better use of labor is accomplished
by such steps as reduction of labor
turnover and absenteeism, eliminat-
ing bottlenecks, improving community
conditions, use of training to speed
up "break-in" and improve skills,
transfer of workers within plants or
to other plants, use of women, prison
ers of war and agricultural workers
and in some cases rescheduling of
production
VINO studies have reduced labor
requirements in some plants through
Identification of specific causes of alb
senteeism and quits, McNutt said. In
one plant, utilization specialists were
able to reduce labor requirements by
$4,000 without impairing production,
at a saving of 3,112,000 manhours a
month.
Shipyard Benefits
Reporting the results of one sur
vey made in a shipyard, McNutt said
the yard, which had greatly expanded
its employment, found it had recruited
many workers not adaptable to the
work. Large-scale absences, idling
and quits resulted. After the survey,
5000 workers were released for other
war work. Nethertheless, the firm in
creased it's monthly rate of launching
new ships.

Estimated fuel wood requirements
for the Nation are estimated at al
most 6S million cords this year but
supplies will run four million cords
short.
The weather could change the pic

mean heavier demands and shorter
supplies.
More cord wood is used in the
South than any other region of the
country, but the critical areas today
are the Lake States, the Northwest
and Northeast where so much home
heating depends on wood, where
population shifts and labor shortages
have changed the normal supply pic
