FOR OFFICE WORKERS

Cincinnati, 0. OLNS).-"This is al
historic occasion in labor history
President William Green of the
American Federation of Labor saio
in presenting an international union
charter to the first convention ol
newly formed Office Employees In
ternational Union.
More than a hundred delegates
representing $4,000 workers organ
lied into $50 local unions throughout
the country, were in attendance.
"You are the pioneers in the estab-
lishment of this union," Green told
them, "just as the early pioneers es-
tablished our country on this conti-
nent. This is not merely an incident
in your life. 1t is a great historic
event, a great experience.
"At this convention we are launch
ing a movement among the white col
lar workers Of the country which will
mean a new life for many of them
and higher standards of living"
The charter was accepted in behalf
of the union by j. Howard Hicks, who

FRENCH BILL HAD ONE GOOD RESULT

TWO YEARS AGO Ohio labor was faced WIFI
vicious and unfair anti-union legislation
member of the General Assembly from rura
community where there are no labor unions intro
duced bill to correct what he was told were evils
in labor unions If that bill had passed, trade
unionism in Ohio would have been dealt dis
astrous blow
But the French bill did not pass. 1t died in
committee 1t died because every labor organlza-
tion in Ohio militanty banded together to see that
its members and the public were told the truth
about the bill and who its real sponsors were.
The French bill was bad But it did serve one
important purpose. 1t showed the various labor
organizations in the state that they could and
must work together on the legislative level
AS a result Ohio's Joint Labor Legislative
Committee was formed. For its formation, a lions
share of credit must go to the dynamic Teamster,
Phil Hannah, who is secretary-treasurer of the
Ohio State Federation of Labor. 1t was he who
did the groundwork that had TO be done in order
to bring the labor representatives together 1t
was his fnesse and common sense that made 1T
work after it was formed.
Now representatives of the AFI. state CIO,
the United Mine Workers, the railroad brother
hoods, the Brewery Workers and all the other
state groups meet once a week to map legislative
plans and make their combined weight felt where
it will do the most good The activities of the
group have captured national attention. It's plan
is being followed elsewhere We are proud that
Ohio set the example.
The Joint Labor Committee not only fights
bad legislation, but pushes progressive bills which
are OF interest to all unions and to the citizens of
Ohio generally.

BUNK FROM TOLEDANO
THE SO-CALLED "World Trade Unio

|TIIE SO-CALLEID 'World Trade Union Confer
ence' in London has been regaled with some
choice "bunko profundo' but none was worse than
that spoken by Vincent Lombardo Toledano, cleft
wing Mexican labor leader and aspirant for
leadership of all Latin American labor. Toedanc
told the meeting that the American Federation OF
Labor was "the most disruptive force on the
American continent"
This was not the only attack on the AFL. Sid
ney Hillman took fling at the federation, as did
others, plainly revealing their resentment at the
refusal Of the federation to take part in the con-
ference, in which the Soviet trade unions" are
heavily represented
Toledano was rebuked by delegate of the In
ternationa Transport Workers Federation but
none of the delegates had the decency to denounce
the childish absurdty of the Toledano charge and
to point out that if the AFL was really diSrup-
tive force it would long since have ceased to exist.
Instead, it has had steady and consistent growth
until it has become the most representative labor
body in North America.
Time after time in the more than 60 years his
tory of the AFI. its doom has been pronounced
by its enemies but it is still doing business and it
will be serving Americas toilers long after Tole-
dano and his Communist cronies have disappeared
for good.

WAYNE MORSE'S WARNING

II AN employer such as Montgomery Wards
cannot be compelled to comply with directives
of the National War Labor Board then it will be
impossible to require compliance from unions
and the lid will come off. That is the warning of
Senator Wayne Morse, former public member of
the board. Perhaps this is what Sewell Avery
wants to bring about. If So he is very foolish fol
labor throughout the country would be tickled to
take him on in an old-fashoned strike. OF course
if Avery's firm is exempt from the NWLB, then
labor will be released from it's no-strike pledge
insofar as his company is concerned.
The Ward case grows in Importance the more

PROPAGANDA

THE PRESIDENT of the United States has
asked the Congress to pass bill to draft labor
to produce war material. The Congress is con
sidering the measure. All branches of organized
labor oppose it. The National Association of Man
ufacturers, the Chamber of Commerce and al
employers organizations oppose it. Most of the
members of the Congress oppose it.
On the other hand, radio commentators night
after night, scream and screech for its passage
Teams of returned soldiers appear before public
bodies to tell how badly the American forces need
Generals and admrals tell us men
must be drafted in order to produce. There are
those who would Nazify the nation. But from
whence comes all this propaganda? Who stands
behind the scenes and tells us that the American
worker must be reduced to slavery?
1t is true the President has asked for the
draft, but he did not ask for it before last No
vember Z. When the people had ballots in their
hands, he did not tell them eve planned it that
way" One begins to wonder Just which way it
was planned. One begins to wonder if the draft
idea was original with the President-the man
who has been pictured as the protector of the
worker and his free unions. We must not forget
The draft of soldiers is military draft-the draft
Of labor is political draft

This year can and must see the substantial
beginning of the organization of world peace. This
organization must be the fulflment Of the
promise for which men have fought and died il
this war. 1t must be the justification of all the
sacrifices that have been made-of all the dread,
ful misery that this world has endured.-Franklir
